| 0:00.0 | How are you? Happy, happy, happy, happy Monday. Come on in my studio. I cleaned it up over the weekend. It's a lot of s- it's got- yeah. And there's room in here too in my little space. Right there in front. There's like six people can sit in front of me now. And uh, you're one of them. So I'm glad to have you here. The rest you got to stand at the hall. |
| 0:29.9 | Oh, wait. Today some life-changing questions. I have spoken to these questions over the years. Don't know when I incorporated them into my life. I probably 10 years ago and every maybe once or twice a year, you'll hear me talk about these. But today it's gonna be changing a little bit more about how you think about things and some questions. By the way, today you might want to have a journal handy. You might want to say for notes. And if you're like me, you'll listen through it first. I mean, you can't listen to this podcast, but whatever you want to do, make some notes. It is a daily boost from motivationable.com. The positive boost you need every single day. |
| 0:59.9 | Right there in the middle of Daytona Beach bike week. Right now. You probably hear me. You've had close attention. A lot of folks except 500,000 motorcycle riders come to Daytona Beach. And, uh, man, I feel for you. Come out of the cold weather. Driving down here in the cold. |
| 1:16.7 | Yeah, I know you're trailing some of you guys, but here I'm like 15 minutes from Main Street. I just zip over there. Come on home. It's cool stuff. Anyway, good to have you here today. My name is Scott Smith. I'm the founder of the Chief Motivating Officer here at Motivation and Move.com. Very simple mission around this here. |
| 1:29.5 | Place. It gives more conflict sometimes. That's what the coaching is for. When I do group coaching and work with people individually and get out and seminars and things like that. |
| 1:37.6 | Sometimes it's a little bit actually digging and doing, but this is really like a seminar every single day. It's an idea. It's a nugget that's dropped in this program at some point in time. Usually many of them. |
| 1:47.6 | You can run with and grab. You have a journal, a couple of posted notes, whatever, write them down and watch what changes. |
| 1:55.0 | Good to have you here today. Let's get on a Monday. I always ask a very simple question. |
| 2:01.4 | I always start the show on a Monday years ago when I first started the Daily Boost way back in 2006. |
| 2:06.8 | It wasn't long before people say, Hey, Scott, can you give me some homework? And to this day, I still get people saying, give me some homework. What can I do? And I try to give you a little bit of it every single day. |
| 2:14.6 | But on Monday, generally speaking, the homework that I see most people need to pay attention to is this asking yourself the question, how is my life going? |
| 2:23.2 | That's it because I find that most people don't ask that question enough. And sometimes it's years in between and stuff goes crazy in those years. |
| 2:31.9 | So you ask a question, how is my life going spiritually, |
| 2:35.7 | emotionally, intellectually, your roles and your goals in life? How you doing? Is it going really well? Is it not so well? Is this somewhere in between? |
| 2:43.4 | You don't even have to do any work. This is what's cool about it because I prefer not to do the work. I yeah, I'll be lazy and a really good way. |
| 2:49.8 | I don't want to sit down right a manifesto about this. I want to get my brain to think differently. |
| 2:54.3 | So when I ask my question, how is my life going? What's it going to do? It's going to start giving you some ideas. So ask the question, sit back and think about a little bit. |
| 3:00.4 | And even if you don't write anything down, notice how your life begins to change. Do it again next week. Do it every day if you want to. It'll really help you. How's my life going? |
| 3:08.8 | So about 10 years ago, I guess somewhere along the, it's been I've been doing this a long time. I mean, I was doing podcasting before podcasting was cool. |
| 3:16.8 | Podcasting before iTunes was a podcast. It's crazy when I talk to people. I'm a podcast OG. I've been doing this literally since there are 5,000 podcasts in the world. |
| 3:25.8 | And I was 4 million of them or so and we're still around and still doing very well. |
| 3:29.8 | But I've been asking a lot of questions over time. And ultimately, it's really to shift your mindset, give you a couple of ideas to get on with your day and we'll do it again tomorrow. |
