In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly talk about how the think it be it life GPS template is set up around your career. There are six things you need to define. Your business plan, your strategy for success, the two – three things that move the needle, where you want your business to be three years from now. The 4 - 5 milestones to get there, and the linchpin issue to go to the next level. But maybe the most important of the six is defining your three year vision for your business. Once you see where you want to go, then you will define the 4-5 milestones to get there from where you are today. That gives you the path. But the lesson from today’s podcast is it’s all about clarity. The clearer you see where you’re going, the more clear it is what the right actions are to get there.
John and Kelly talk about over the years with their think it be it business, and some years they liked the three year vision and some years they didn’t like the direction. So it’s valuable on an every six month basis to assess on a scale of 1 to 10 how well you like your three year career vision. If you don’t find yourself liking it to the level of a nine or 10, maybe it’s better to spend more time figuring out how to get it to that nine or 10 than continuing to continuing to pursue a three year vision that you don’t fully embrace. Clarity always brings the right actions to the surface.

About the Hosts:
John Mitchell
John’s story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn’t as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there’s a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.
When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.
His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.
John’s technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas’ McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.
