Episode 069- How the Invest in You Formula Can Change Your Life

The Elite Road Warrior Podcast

Welcome to the ERW podcast, I’m your host, BpB, fellow grounded road warrior at this time, husband of one, father of five, and learning how to make time for personal and professional development to work on me while I’m now home ALL the time.

It requires the following from you:

Your Time - you need to carve out a period of time to invest in you and you alone
Your Focus - you need to be in the learning zone (aka: locked in / dialed in / no distractions)
Your Commitment - you need to be consistent

The 1st part of the Invest in You Formula is to Sharpen the Mind.
Key Phrase: "Think Putting Good Content In”
There are three keys to Sharpen the Mind:

Find the What

What content do you want to consume that will help you grow as a person that sharpens your mind?

Find something you enjoy - this is something you look forward to reading (podcast example: The Plan book)

Find something you want to learn - this is something you could implement right away (podcast example: Marketing Made Simple book)

Find the Where

Amazon

Audible

Find the When

The Quiet

The 3rd and last part of the Invest in You Formula is to Monitor the Heart.

HOW DO YOU MONITOR THE HEART?

Learn to ask: “How am I REALLY doing?”

Let me start you off by asking how your heart is toward your...
