Welcome to another episode of the "Run Your Business Like a Business" podcast! Ever wonder why some businesses reach their goals and soar, while others can't seem to get off the ground? Well, it isn't about luck or timing - it's about priorities and setting achievable weekly goals. Today, we're digging deep into how prioritizing your week and setting those "Friday Finishers" can drastically transform your business and push you toward success. So buckle up and let's set the course to hit that 5 PM Friday target. Let's make every week count!

Having a morning routine can offer numerous benefits, such as increased productivity, improved mental and physical health, reduced stress levels, and greater overall well-being. However, the #1 thing that most people do not do with their morning routine is to set an intention around working on things that matter to them. By identifying specific goals or tasks to focus on during the morning, people can prioritize their time and energy towards what they truly value. This can help them feel more fulfilled and accomplished, and lead to a sense of purpose and direction in life. By incorporating this simple yet powerful practice into their morning routine, people can experience even greater benefits and achieve their goals more effectively. 

Winning the week is a goal that many people have, but it's not always easy to achieve. However, with the right mindset and habits, anyone can learn to consistently have a productive and fulfilling week. Here are four ways to win the week and transform your life:

1. Having a solid morning routine that puts you in a positive mindset

Starting your day on the right foot is crucial to setting the tone for the rest of the day. A solid morning routine can help you get into a positive mindset and prepare yourself mentally and physically for the day ahead. This can include activities like meditation, journaling, exercise, or reading something inspirational. The key is to find what works for you and stick to it consistently.

1. Setting 2-5 big goals, what we call "Friday finisher"

Setting big goals for the week is essential to staying focused and making progress towards your larger quarterly goals. These "Friday finishers" are the most important things you want to get done by the end of the...

EOS Traction, or the Entrepreneurial Operating System, is a comprehensive business management system designed to help businesses achieve their goals by providing a framework for organizational alignment, focus, and accountability. One of the tools that EOS Traction recommends using is a scorecard.

A scorecard is a tool that helps teams track progress toward their goals and objectives. It typically includes a set of metrics or key performance indicators (KPIs) that are directly linked to the organization's goals. These metrics are usually tracked over time and updated on a regular basis.

Using a scorecard as part of EOS Traction can help businesses stay on track and ensure that everyone is working toward the same objectives. By regularly reviewing the scorecard, teams can identify areas where they are excelling and areas where they need to improve. This helps to focus the team's efforts and resources on the most important goals.

Do you struggle with productivity?  

This is a huge topic in the coaching world and most people who come to high performance coaching say this is at the top of the list on things they believe they want to improve on! 

Today’s interview is with John Roussot, Founder and CEO of FiiT4GROWTH Ltd., a certified High Performance Coaching company that focuses on bringing High Performance to top executives, teams, and organizations.  

Welcome John!

Thank you for inviting me Nate to this discussion!  A topic you and I are both super, super passionate about because we know that as high performers, productivity is less about doing a lot of stuff, it’s more about doing the things that matter most. It's one of the six high performance habits and we know through the research that high performers are meticulous about “Prolific Quality Output”, (P-Q-O).

Q: Why do you think people struggle with productivity so much? 

A: “A lot of people...

If I were to ask you to show me your calendar over the next 90 days, what would I see? Getting the big rocks in our calendar and getting those time blocked is the critical next step to being more productive and having more free time. This is counterintuitive to how most people think though, because they think they want a less flexible schedule but in fact that is what leaves them stressed out all the time.

Do you ever wonder why it is that sometimes we know what we need to do, but we just don't do it, especially in real estate, you know, real estate agents all the time we, we get taught, hey, you got to make your phone calls, you got to get these face to face meetings, write your personal notes, you know, be really organized with your day and yet, for a lot of people, a lot of agents they really struggle with just following through and then they don't feel like they're, you know, being as productive as they could be. They kind of feel maybe guilty that they're not doing some of these activities, or they don't care and they're just kind of falling behind. And it's an interesting psychology, isn't it? And in this video, that's what I want to talk to a little bit about and how we look at that from a coaching perspective.
