Ep.108 "ROI on Goodness" #local

Henry David Thoreau once said, “Goodness is the only investment that never fails," and your PNW duo say “When you invest in yourself, you'll never feel bankrupt.”
This week Chris and AJ are talking about ways to contribute in various ways to your internal savings account with some solid Bham returns on investment.


AJ

* Do more, social media less, and more time 'Doing'

Chris

* Physical - Gym workouts are sacrosanct. They are not subbed out for another event.
* Internal/Financial - Weekly food shopping on weekend, Meal Prep Sunday with my wife. Buddha Bowl lunch containers.
* Mental - Sunday afternoon/evening - upcoming week calendar plan. Put myself first, schedule the important.
* Professional - Meetings are scheduled only with myself. Process what haas happened internally, think about nothing, allow ideas to bubble up and write them down.
