Even the best-laid plans, habits, and intentions can be derailed by familiar pitfalls.

Change isn’t easy, but there are simple strategies you can use to make change possible. When you understand what’s standing between you and success, you can tailor-fit your solution so that no problem is too big and no barrier unmovable.

Katy Milkman is the award-winning researcher whose science-based approach to behavioral change has helped both individuals and organizations conquer their goals and get from where they are to where they want to be. You’ll learn how to break down the common problems we all face when we set out to create change in our lives.

You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with. This is true of every area of your life – especially your finances

You may think of your financial wellbeing as something you do alone or with your significant other. You may think it comes down to your level of discipline or ambition. But there’s one overlooked thing that also determines how much money you make, save, or invest: the people you surround yourself with.

If you’re purposeful, you won’t just have relationships, you’ll have wealth determiners: people that have a positive influence on your life and your finances. Who do you surround yourself with? Are they helping you or hindering you from building your wealth? Jay and Wendy Papasan are going to show you how to identify the difference.

Every year, we hold a Goal Setting Retreat for couples and teach this concept (along with an exercise to determine if you are missing wealth determiners and how to find them, or if any of your current relationships are undermining your wealth building). If you want to have this process facilitated for you visit the1thing.com/setmygoals.

There is something happening right now called The Great Resignation. Record breaking numbers of people are voluntarily leaving their jobs.

Why have so many people quit? Why are so many people looking for new opportunities? And how can you go about creating the type of environment that people don’t want to leave? Specifically by using the principles and models of The ONE Thing.

We’re going to share two resources you can use to take the next step in creating that environment.

We all want to be more present and less stressed. We want to feel at peace and have mental clarity so we can be better leaders — at work and at home. But for high achievers, counterbalancing work life and personal life can feel easier said than done.

Jon Macaskill is a retired Navy SEAL-turned mindfulness teacher who learned firsthand how meditation can help you cope with stress, transform your relationships, and get better results. He knows that finding peace and productivity is not about doing everything — it’s about focusing on the small habits that make clarity possible, and sustainable.

The ONE Thing is the surprisingly simple truth behind extraordinary results. That truth: time is our most valuable resource.

The problem is that most people wake up every day spending their time because they were never taught how to invest it. How to make sure that they had clarity on their priorities – that their calendar actually reflected their priorities instead of being filled with meetings and to-dos.

We’re going to dive into some practical ways that you can achieve even higher levels of results for yourself personally. The ONE Thing outlines the idea of moving from E to P: from entrepreneurial to purposeful. You act entrepreneurially when you rely on your natural abilities: doing the best that you can do. Being purposeful takes looking outside of yourself to do things to the best standard that they can be done. While it’s a simple idea, it’s not easy. That’s where Ron Friedman comes in. He literally wrote the book on decoding greatness (appropriately called “Decoding Greatness”). He walks you through what it means, how you can benchmark and reverse engineer your progress, and the three simple steps you can take to get started immediately.

Is marketing your ONE Thing? Does it make everything else you do easier or unnecessary? For some of you, the answer is “Yes.” But, for many of you, the answer is “No,” and yet, marketing is still a vital priority of your business. It brings the revenue which drives the profit which funds the mission.

As you go on this marketing journey – and whether you’re a professional or not – there are a lot of challenges to avoid falling into. Thankfully, there are a lot of resources available to learn and help you master the vital skill of marketing.

One of those is Scott Miller’s book, “Marketing Mess to Brand Success,” and Scott joins us, this week, to explore how he’s disrupted his life over the past few months and increased his overall happiness. He shows us how to overcome the challenges of marketing and growing businesses.
