Summary
In this episode, we look at a proven way to guarantee personal development and growth. We explore how you can be confident that you are going to make progress in your life even if it is a little bit at a time.
Key Points:
- Why change and growth doesn't happen just by "showing up"
- Why you need purposeful growth
- How purposeful growth works
- How to keep yourself in the ideal zone
Notable Quotes:
“At its core progress is a measurement against where you used to be, not a measurement against where you want to be.” – Gregg Clunis
“That's what purposeful growth actually looks like. It's figuring out the area that you want to grow in, making a drastic change in that area and then consciously choosing to show up every day.” – Gregg Clunis

| 0:14.0 | Big change. Welcome to another episode of Tiny Leaps, Big Changes, where I share simple strategies you can use to get more out of your life. My name is Greg Klunis and in this episode we are talking about how you can guarantee growth, how you can essentially assure that you are going to make progress in your life, you're going to move |

| 1:10.2 | based on how many promotions we've had and how that relates back to our actual target. |

| 1:45.9 | even if you never hit that weight target even if you never hit that the financial |
