Hey everyone and welcome to the All It Takes the Goal podcast.

If you're new around here, and you might be, maybe you saw me in an event.

I came to your company.

I came to your conference.

Maybe you saw me there like, oh, give this a shot.

If you're new around here, I'm a late bloomer who discovered the power of goals in his mid-30s. Now I'm on a

furious mission to create the accelerators I wish I had in my 20s. I'm your host, John Aikov.

And today, I'm going to teach you a very simple principle that will help you in every adventure you go on from this

moment on everything you try every goal every project every hope if you'll hold on to this simple

principle you'll really enjoy them a lot more so let me just start out by saying, today is Remarkable You.

Today is the first day of Remarkable You. It's a two-day event we're doing in Nashville.

So this isn't even a pitch. This is just me saying, hey, whoa, somewhere right now.

I am on stage. I'm doing this a couple weeks before, so I'm just future casting.

I'm on stage. I'm at the factory and I'm teaching people

how to be remarkable. And there's hundreds of people there and it's going to be amazing. I don't even

have to pitch it to you guys because it's not for sale anymore because it's happening right now.

And we're not doing a live podcast recording. Sometimes people do that at events where like they sit

on stage and it's a live

interactive podcast. But my podcast really isn't that way. I occasionally, occasionally do an

interview, but the majority of it is me trying to give you 10 to 12 minutes of encouragement.

I try to give you the most fire, most interesting, stickiest, easiest to bring into your day encouragement.

I consider myself a handle maker.
