The Bucket

Your goal is to fill the bucket up.

And it’s easy. At least when you first start. All you have to do is focus on pouring more liquid into it. More input, more productivity, more effort. 

And as it should, the level of liquid in the bucket rises.

Until it stops. And then starts dropping.

So you focus on pouring more into it. More & more input, more & more productivity, more & more effort. But the level keeps dropping. You keep sliding further & further away from your goal.

And then you recognize the real problem. There are holes in the bottom of your bucket.

They could be big obvious holes, like your business or personal overhead being too high, or a drop in real productivity for the sake of busyness.

But more often than not, they are less obvious, and a result of complacency over time. The daily habits that don’t align with your goals that you have allowed to creep in.

In this episode, Joseph Mencel provides practical & strategic advice on how to identify and plug the holes in the bottom of your bucket with regards to your fitness, business, career and relationship goals.

Joseph then explores what causes the holes in the first place, and what you can do to prevent future holes from developing.

A short episode that you will want to keep saved in your favourites.
