Summary
Ben Kinney, Chad Hyams, and Bob Stewart explore the concept of priority in leadership, discussing the power of focusing on one key task rather than juggling multiple "priorities." They emphasize monthly goals and the importance of saying no to avoid distractions. Kinney shares his unique approach of dreaming big while acting small, dismissing long-term plans in favor of short, actionable goals. Listeners can gain insight into achieving better productivity and success through prioritized goals, weekly deliverables, and efficient time management.

| 0:13.3 | Welcome to the Win Make Give podcast, where we talk about the concepts of health, wealth, |
| 0:18.8 | leadership, and legacy. My name is Chad Heimes, and I am joined by my friend Bob Stewart. |
