Do you work so hard, or so much, that you miss out on important experiences and people you care about?
Maybe you’re even single because you “don’t have time” to get out there?
Many men tell me they’ve worked more than they’d like to for years, sometimes decades.
As I get older I see how easy it is to take life for granted.
The truth is, you don’t know how much time you have left here on planet earth.
Today’s Man Alive podcast guest, Doug Morneau, had a wake-up call when he walked in the door one day and heard his son say, “Mommy, daddy came home for a visit.”
As an entrepreneur who has helped clients raise over $100M in venture capital, Doug worked long hours. But, after seeing how it impacted his son he changed his life. He started spending more time doing what he loves with his family and friends.
If you want more time for what and who matters to you, while continuing to do good work in the world, listen to this Man Alive podcast!
As the host of his own podcast, Real Marketing Real Fast, Doug gives powerful business insights. In this conversation discussed how to be more successful without sacrificing your life. We talked about…
In this conversation we covered:
- What becomes possible when you align your schedule with your values
- A powerful way to use your calendar to prioritize what’s most important to you
- What some men (and perhaps you) are avoiding by working long hours
- What to do if you’re not making enough money
- Doug’s journey from mining to marketing — how he pinpointed a problem and offered a solution that changed his life
At the end Doug presented a powerful question that sparked a totally new perspective for me. His insights have helped many people create more lucrative and successful businesses.
