5 Minute Drill | Victory Starts with Your Values

People pay millions of dollars every year on books and courses to help them discover their purpose and define their goals, but there’s an important step you MUST take BEFORE all of that…

It’s a step that DRIVES everything else.

It’s called defining your core values.

Your values tell me what it is about YOU that causes you to want what you want. 

Your values explain to me why you’re naturally inclined to pursue certain goals or make certain decisions.

In my experience, an elite performer with no clear vision, mission, or purpose can still make initial progress IF they’re clear on their values.

In today’s 5-Minute Drill, I kick off a 3-part series on helping you not only clarify your core values, but also leverage them daily to unlock your highest capabilities and achieve the levels of success you deserve. 

If you want more consistency in your life and game, then make sure to lock in to today’s Drill. 

LET’S GET IT!

[00:01 – 07:23] Opening Segment

• J.R. shares about a period of extreme exhaustion in his life and career and how it related to his values

[07:24 – 10:59] What’s The Drill? 

STEP 1: Grab a piece of paper or journal and start a list…

Think about people you admire.

• Start with family, friends, and teammates (past and present) that you admire. 
• Write their names down. 
• Next to their names, write down what it is about them that you admire. Think about qualities, character, attributes, things they stand for, etc. 

STEP 2: Start a second list. 

Think about other people you admire outside of family, friends, and teammates.

• They don’t necessarily have to be living and they also could be fictional in nature (e.g. Martin Luther King, TV series characters, etc.).
• Write their names down. 
• Next to their names, write down what it is about them that you admire. Think about qualities, character, attributes, things they stand for, etc.

STEP 3: Tune in for next week’s Drill to continue Part 2 of this Clutch Values exercise…
