Speaking from Experience: The One Thing

The One Thing isn’t the only thing, but it is the main thing. An astrophysicist might figure out the One Thing with math, but you probably won’t figure yours out that way. You’ll probably learn it with your gut as much as your head, and chances are you’ll probably always chase it in someway. A long, long time ago someone got ‘woke’ by Jesus and after spending years with him realized the One Thing that the world was really all about. He wanted to make sure everyone heard it - including you. Curious?

The Long Haul: Scraps

Chris, Melissa, and Greg talk about some of the themes brought up in our September conversations about The Long Haul, like these personal commitments we've been claiming together:
I will not lie to myself
I will not avoid vulnerability
I will not let my influencers be chosen by someone else
I will not tie my hands with what's not important to me
Let's keep talking about how to stay in it for the long haul together! 

The Long Haul: Investing

Investing: Driven by What Matters Most 
The Chris Farrells & Kai Ryssdals of the world remind us about our retirement while we burn through our money as fast as we earn it. That’s just money, what about what matters most? If it’s important, if it’s part of life for the long haul, then it should be part of today. A big part. Okay, you already know that, but are you doing it? What we value less gets in the way of what we value most. There is something we can do about that.

The Long Haul: Selective

Selective: The Importance of Which Others - What do you suppose determines who you will be more than anything else? Is it your family? Your neighborhood? The school you go to or the classes you take? Is it your genes, your IQ, your diet? Or is just you and what you put your mind to? Truth be told, there is no absolute answer to that question, but one thing under your control is a major factor in determining your long haul that few people pay much attention to. Let’s pay attention to it.

The Long Haul: Capacity

Capacity: The Importance of Others - The Long Haul journey to a life that matters and lasts is made of many steps. In fact, not just many steps, many feet. That’s right, one of the first discoveries is that you cannot do it alone. You were never intended to. Life is a together journey, not a by myself one. You know that already, but living that way is hard. Greg and Melissa lead us in this conversation about our hang-ups and conflicts with having the capacity for the Long Haul.
