Intentionality vs. Drift: Charting Your Path to Success
Manage episode 462979612 series 2467485
Welcome to a new episode of Business Lunch! In this episode, Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss discuss the concept of "drift" - the insidious ways in which we can unconsciously veer off course from our goals and aspirations. They explore three types of drift: financial drift, strategic drift, and vision drift, and provide insights on how to consciously shift towards your desired outcomes rather than passively drifting. The conversation covers the importance of habits, the costs and investments required to achieve your goals, and the difference between shifting and drifting.
Highlights:
"What gets measured gets managed."
"If I can only work one hour today, what's the one thing I would do?"
"The only remedy that I've ever had goes back to the habits. Am I at least behaving like someone who has those things that I want?"
"I'm going to quit on a good day, and I'm going to quit after I've been trying it for a while."
