458: Time Is The One Thing You’ll Never Get Back: How Are You Spending Yours? (Summer Shift Week 11)

What if the life you’re working so hard to build is causing you to miss the life you’re already living?There’s nothing wrong with chasing bigger goals—but when success starts costing you the moments, people, and time that matter most, it may be time to rethink what you’re really chasing.It’s easy to tell yourself that you’ll slow down later. You’ll spend more time with the people you love once work settles down. You’ll enjoy life once you reach the next goal. You’ll finally feel successful when you get there.But what happens when “there” keeps moving?You can earn more money. Set another goal. Try again after a failure. But today only happens once—and the time you spend can never be put back.What’s It All About?In Week 11 of the 12-week Summer Shift Series, Kevin asks one of those uncomfortable questions that can change the way you see everything:"What am I doing all of this for?"To answer it, he shares the story of a fellow podcaster and successful entrepreneur named Adam Schaeuble who found himself in one of those high-level mastermind groups and on one particular day, the numbers started flying.One by one, the numbers got bigger. One person was aiming to hit 6-figures this year. Another person had already crushed last year's numbers by more than double. The guy in the corner explained that he was on track to blow pass 1 million by year's end.But then it came around to our guy Adam.And instead of naming another financial goal, he gave an answer that changed the entire conversation.His definition of success wasn’t built around how much money he could make.It was built around how he wanted to spend his life.That story leads to an even bigger realization about the limited number of ordinary days, family moments, summers, conversations, and experiences any of us actually get.This episode isn’t telling you to stop chasing big dreams.It’s challenging you to make sure that while you’re building the life you want tomorrow, you don’t accidentally miss the life you have today.Looking for the Links & Resources?Adam with Podcasting Business School has got it going on!
