Episode 80: Quick Wins Quick Bucks and the Need for Speed
Tom Cruise once said, “I feel the need – the need for speed.” He could very well have been summarizing how many of us are feeling nearly 40 years later. (Yes, it has been that long. #old)
Whether it be a need for belonging, more money, a clearer identity, more engaging work, or something else so many of us are looking for the short and quick path to “better”. Unresolved pain gets our attention, and that pain is what causes many of us to be impulsive at work and at home and to buy into the promises from companies like LuLaRoe.
Oh yes, Nayla gets into a rant in this episode about LuLaRoe. You are not going to want to miss it.
What LuLaRoe – and other multi-level marketing companies – know is that humans are wired to accept the promise of quick fixes when they are experiencing pain. In this episode, we talk about the importance of slowing down our decision-making and exploring other options to generate momentum in our lives.
We discuss what quick wins are and are not, and how to create them the right way. We also talk about the importance of finding ways to create a substantial and lasting change for the better, and why we should be curious about what we’re already doing well when looking for ways to create more value in our lives.
And we talk about how Tom Cruise runs, and why Will Ferrell is always in his underwear.
