Podcast 175: The Leader Who Had No Title with Robin Sharma

All fortune begins within—with you loving who you are, embracing your talents, taking really great care of you by avoiding toxic influences, ensuring that you are well treated by others and nurturing your body through exercise, exposure to nature, a healthy diet, sunlight and lots of deep rest.

Clean Out All Toxic Influences to x100 Your Impact

Every Leader Without a Title and world-class productive runs toward what they are most resisting versus toward the exit door. They feel the fear of tackling a game-changing project and do the project anyway. They acknowledge the sweaty palms before the high-stakes presentation, and give the presentation anyway. They experience the runaway heartbeats accompanying asking for the biggest order in the history of their company, and they ask anyway. And that’s what makes them great.

Do What's Most Difficult

In this episode of The Daily Mastery Podcast, Robin Sharma shares a valuable insight on the leadership mindset.

Your "I CAN" is More Important Than Your IQ

Life is a series of seasons.  My harsh winters have given way to my sunny springs. My fallow fields of stifled creativity have led to the most abundant of harvests. Trust the process. Relax.

Life is a Series of Seasons

The subject I'll walk you through today is a game-changing method I initially developed through my coaching of ultra-successful people, many of whom suffer from so many distractions in their lives that their productivity falls apart. It's called the 90/90/1 Rule and, given how beautifully it worked for my private clients, I wanted to make sure I shared it with you.

The 90/90/1 Rule [to x25 Your Productivity]

One of the primary principles of real leadership is being uber-nice. Wildly empathetic. Staggeringly compassionate. The nicest (and best person you know). 

Why? Because leadership (and business/life) is all about people. Human connections. Social equity. Emotional bonds between you and your stakeholders (the people you work with/your customers/suppliers and the community you serve).

Our world says that if you are a leader, in many ways, it’s about what you get. What I’m going to suggest to you with deep respect is: “Being a leader is about what you give.” 

It’s a paradox because as you give more you actually receive more.

The Power of Kind

You and I work for the world, you know. And so we owe it to those around us to realize our natural genius while we optimize our crafts, elevate our creativity, heighten productivity and be helpful to more people.

I know you're important. I know you're a busy producer. I get that people need your attention and your decisions. Go to war. Fight to go dark and be completely unavailable. Distractions are costing you your genius. The business won't burn down and your team will figure it out.

You doing masterful work is all that matters here. Trust me on this. Be nearly totally unavailable. Just watch what ideas start downloading and just see the quality of your output.

How True Luminaries Get Dreams Done

Age is just some label society places on us [and prints on a driver's license]. And yet so many of us allow it to limit our heroic nature and instinct for greatness.

Positive psychologists confirm (through good research) the power of the self-fulfilling prophecy: think you're old and you'll become old. [Because if you think you're old, you'll move less, create less, work less, dream less... which will make you old!].‎ 

In this episode of The Daily Mastery Podcast, I'll walk you one powerful way to become ageless. So you become peerless.

How To Become Ageless

The majority are stuck in scarcity. They don’t give much to their organizations nor to their customers. And so their people never fall in love with them—and their brands.⁣⁣

Being a real leader is about what you GIVE versus what you get. 

In today's episode, I’ll invite you to play with a potent insight on shifting from scarcity to leadership.

The 10x Value Obsession

You are born into genius, but have you resigned yourself to mediocrity?

The instant we drop our excuses is the moment we enjoy freedom from pain, because potential unexpressed and dreams left undone are what cause the regret that powers all suffering.
