Maslow's Hierarchy Of Needs - What If We Were All Rated?

Do you want a “good life?” Goofy to ask, but in truth, does that not sum up what we are all working towards or at least hoping and dreaming of? To have a truly good life? One of the top podcasts on planet earth is “The Good Life Project” hosted by Jonathan Fields. Jonathan has truly done something profound. In the pursuit of a good life - in the personal development industry worldwide - amidst everyone globally desiring to make individual progress, Jonathan has brilliantly boiled things down to three buckets. It’s really tremendous. We of course talk through these points which are the essence of his podcast and his bestselling book of the same name, “The Good Life Project”. But I also just dig into Jonathan himself and what got him to this point to embrace this movement and become the leader he’s become and is becoming to so many people. It’s incredibly intriguing and gives us all a lot to think about in regards to how we are living, loving and leading.

We are talking about something that is just - vital. Community, and specifically, the power it has for our lives, and the handicap we all have without it. This is actually a special installment in place of our normal Q&A, but we recently had a chance to talk with Howard Partridge about his new book "The Power of Community - How Phenomenal Leaders Inspire Their Teams, WOW Their Customers and Make Bigger Profits.”  I just spent time in Nashville, TN with Howard and got a copy right from Howard’s hand. This is a timely, timely book. We are suffering as a culture by being uber connected digitally, but under connected personally with real relationships.  The book comes out Jan 25, 2018 but you can Pre-order now at http://www.howardpartridge.com/community. When I asked him what the catalyst was for his devotion to this topic, he cited it was church. And the LACK of real community and relationship there. Pretty interesting. If you don’t know Howard, he knocked it out of the park in business and is now  an international business coach with coaching members in over 100 industries in 9 countries. He is a best selling author of seven books and the exclusive business coach for the Zig Ziglar Corporation. Howard has a story, he grew up on welfare in Mobile Alabama and left home at 18. He arrived in Houston, Texas on a Greyhound bus with only 25 cents in his pocket. He started his first business out of the trunk of his car over 33 years ago and built it into a multi-million dollar enterprise. He has owned 9 small businesses altogether and owns 4 companies at the time of this recording. He is the proud president of Phenomenal Products, Inc. which helps leaders and business owners inspire their teams using the Power of Community. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this show we get into the personal life of Dave Ramsey. What are the daily, personal habits of America’s most trusted source on money?  Some interesting things you’ll hear, he and his wife Sharon get up at 4:45 every morning together to talk, pray and go go over plans for the day. She then works out at the gym while he uses his home gym and some running trails, he still spends time budgeting! Though it’s admittedly looking at bigger expenses and not the grocery budget. He mentors a group of local, young pastors. And he believes recreating is “re-creating” and devotes time to joys such as barefoot skiing at his lake house. It was a fun journey with Dave over the 7 spokes of the Ziglar Wheel of Life.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We are talking about upping your hope, joy, expectations and from that, your behavior and actions. How? By increasing your gratitude. Nothing has to change other than...your awareness of what is happening right in front of your eyes and giving it the value it deserves. We’re going to listen to a two-minute clip from the legend himself, Zig Ziglar. The message was from a presentation he called the “Oh Gosh! Attitude”. From that clip, I asked people at my agentkmiller Facebook page, where you are welcome to join if you want to join these discussions, “What is something you often take for granted that you should, in all truth, be wowed about?” I actually made the first comment to kick things off, and we got some really heartfelt comments that will make you think deeply. The vast majority of comments came under three main focal points? Think you know them??? Listen in. But we got a couple stand-alone comments on topics that were really profound. Michelle Prince and I talk through these. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Rich Roll is back with us to dig into his personal, daily habits of success following the 7 spokes of the Ziglar Wheel of Life. Some highlights: For a while, Rich journaled what he did over every 15 minute block to discover where he was wasting time in his life, so he could be more efficient. His morning time starting predawn he feels is his most creative time and sets the stage for the entire day. In his early days as a corporate lawyer he felt like an artist trapped in a lawyer’s body. He believes we are spiritual beings having a human experience and there is little in his life he gets more joy from than a bike ride.

Rich Roll was near 40 and in horrific shape. He had a big awakening and transformed himself into not just a fit and well guy, but an elite, ultra endurance athlete. And from that, a guy who is massively inspiring hundreds of thousands of people. You may know Rich from his top ranked podcast, “The Rich Roll Podcast”. Rich is a world-renown, plant-based ultra-endurance athlete, in-demand public speaker, wellness advocate, bestselling author and inspirational hero to a global audience of wellness seekers as a transformative example of courageous and healthy living. The story is, after succumbing to the sedentary throes of overweight middle age, at age 40, Rich made a decision to overhaul his life, adopting a plant-based diet and reinventing himself as an ultra-distance endurance athlete. Just a few years later, Rich stunned the multisport community with top finishes at the Ultraman World Championships, a 320-mile, 3-day double ironman-distance triathlon widely considered one of the most grueling endurance events on the planet. Rich chronicles his journey in Finding Ultra: Rejecting Middle Age, Becoming One of the World’s Fittest Men, and Discovering Myself -- an inspirational memoir of plant-fueled athletic prowess which quickly became a #1 bestseller. In 2015, Rich and his vegan chef wife Julie Piatt released The Plantpower Way – a plant-based cookbook and lifestyle primer for the active modern family. The discussion was, well, Rich! I felt quite a kindred spirit in Rich, and from the authenticity he shares in the struggles he’s dealt with, I think you will too.

Your reality. Is it real? Or is it only as you perceive it and can you alter it - right now? Are you limiting yourself and merely need a paradigm shift to dramatically catapult your life for the better in a short amount of time? This is a continuation of show 524 where we listened to a clip from Zig Ziglar on our true potential. If you missed it, go listen to show 524. Today, coming from the same message from Zig, I asked on my agentkmiller Facebook page, “Do you believe reality is in fact, real? That it is concrete and black and white? Or do you believe “reality” is what we make of it?” The Facebook comments really brought up some interesting perspectives about this. Michelle Prince and I take you through them in hopes of helping you alter what you perceive as your reality. I will tell you, it helped us further change our own beliefs!
