09:44 PEOPLE: Deconstruct superstars, athletes, musicians.. Those helping us get better. Those pushing humanity forward. Break things down what they do and how we can incorporate this into our own lives.
10:31 Will also include “Ordinary” people doing extraordinary things. Nick’s sister – the adversity, the achievements to learn from how she dealt with things. Not just well-known people.
11:19 Who and What people are? Where do they come from, what makes them tick? What keeps them awake at night? What challenges and adversity they’ve gone through. What can we learn from their successes and failures? Common thread for all of us.
12:25 PROFITS: The money side of life. Can’t trade cows for beans… we need money to interact. What skillsets do we know to grow business? How to create wealth, what to do with money when we have it? What can we learn from those who are already successful?
13:51 What can technology do to increase your income? How to be profitable with business or life.
14:19 PURPOSE: Why do people do what they do? What does it mean to be in FLOW? How do we know what our purpose is and stay on track? How to get or learn that “knowing” or A-Ha moment?
16:05 How to share your purpose with others?
16:30 Who are you and would you like to see on the show?
16:40 Farewell.
