without the BS.

0:03.5

I tell you what I am fired up today for you, because this is the day that the Lord has made, and you should rejoice and be glad in it.

0:28.5

It is profound that you are above the ground, so be a verb, and not a noun, take some freaking action, have some passion, live your best life, now you can do it, and so many people, thousands of people have literally attended our thrive time show workshops, and now we have one last opportunity for you to get free tickets.

0:53.5

Right now we have the capacity to accommodate four more people, we're sold out, but we've kind of expanded so we can get more people in there, so if you want to get free tickets for our in-person thrive time show workshop, it's very simple.

1:04.5

All you have to do is Google search, thrive 15, so let's thrive one, five, I'll do it right now while I'm on the show, so we'll see how long it takes.

1:11.5

I'm going to Google, thrive 15, and jinx, I'm pulling it up, thrive 15, and jinx, I'm pulling it up there, now it's up.

1:18.5

It took me about four seconds, it's not too bad, then once you go to thrive time show and jinx, you're going to find the are listing, there's a picture of the thrive time show building, you're going to see 300 plus reviews, and just leave us an objective review, tell us how we're doing with the show, and then email us your contact information, you know, proof that you did it, just like a screenshot, or I'll take your word for it if your name matches the review, I mean it doesn't require rocket science here.

1:43.5

So email us your contact information to info at thrive time show.com, and we'll give you two free tickets, so you're getting $200 of value right there, plus you get two copies of the boom book, which is a $20 book as well, so you're getting $240 of free stuff for just writing a review.

1:59.5

I'm another example, another thing you can do, you can Google search thrive time show and iTunes, another one thrive time show and iTunes, when you find the thrive time show and iTunes, you could subscribe to the podcast, leave us an objective review, and email us your contact information to info at thrive time show.com, and again, we can get you those free tickets, but the thing is is so many people put off living because I think someday it's going to be all right.

2:28.5

Remember, someday is not a day in the calendar, there's Monday, there's Tuesday, there's Wednesday, there's Thursday, there's Friday, and some people believe there's Saturday, there's Sunday, but typically there's not a someday.

2:41.5

Now, someday is the day that falls between now and never. It's a thing, so I have a lot of people just say someday is the key to getting to never.

2:55.5

What's the bridge? How do I get from where I am now to something that will never occur? Oh, just get on someday Boulevard, and you just meander down that thing, and you're going to find yourself living in a van down by the river, not because by default,

3:10.5

life is terrible. By default, your finance is going to be terrible. By default, your marriage will be horrible, but if you're proactive and intentional about designing the life you want to live, then you can absolutely have success.

3:22.5

So a member of the Thrive Nation email us, they took action and the email doesn't ask the question, should I care about life balance if I'm starting a business?

3:30.5

When's the right time to prioritize balance? Okay, here we go. You asked for it. I'm going to give it to you.

3:36.5

Ron real. Here we go. First read the notable quoteable from Jack Welch, the number one CEO, one of the top CEOs in American history, who grew GE general electric by 4,000% during his tenure.

3:48.5

Okay, so Jack Welch says there's no such thing as work, life balance, there are work, life choices, and you make them and they have consequences.

3:57.5

Okay, so I'm just going to I'm going to give you a polarizing example. I went to Owensboro to help a church out there, and it's helping them with their work process.

4:05.5

And I spent the entire day helping them make the workflows. So the entire day I was making workflows, which means I'm making a linear path on a whiteboard of how their church is supposed to operate to increase efficiency and to find linkage problems in the linear work places where the ball is getting dropped. Right.

4:25.5

And then that's what I did. So I was it wasn't balanced. I was focused focusing on my core task until success. That's what I was doing. Then after we did that, we went out to dinner with the pastor and his wife, and we had a great time.

4:37.5
