Unlock Your Perfect Day Formula

Scott Smith - Motivation and Coaching
About this episode

Episode Description:

In this enlightening episode, Scott Smith explores the profound difference between goals and intentions, leading to a powerful discussion about creating an "average perfect day." He introduces a groundbreaking tool - the Daily Awareness Diary template - that helps listeners identify blind spots in their journey to personal fulfillment.


Scott delves into the science behind why some motivational techniques fail while others succeed, offering practical insights into aligning your daily activities with your natural rhythms and core values. Whether you call it perfect or simply pleasing, Scott demonstrates how achieving consistently satisfying days leads to an extraordinary life.


Featured Story:

Scott shares a conversation with his client from Cape Town, who preferred calling it an "average good day" instead of a "perfect day." This exchange highlights a crucial insight: whether you aim for perfection or consistent good days, success comes from aligning your daily activities with your natural rhythms and core values.


Key Takeaways:

  • Goals are targets; intentions are the actions you'll take to reach them
  • Your natural energy patterns and biological rhythms should guide your daily schedule
  • Success comes from aligning external goals with internal values
  • Waiting for retirement to live your ideal life is a mistake
  • Daily awareness is crucial for identifying what's holding you back


Memorable Quotes:

"Do more of what you love to do and less of what you don't." "You can have all the discipline you want, but what if we aligned everything we did with what we're wired to do?" "If you could, on average, have a really good day every single day of your life, how would your life be?"


Scott's Three-Step Approach:


  1. Map your day based on your natural energy patterns and rhythms
  2. Identify and honor your core values and beliefs in daily activities
  3. Align your external goals with your internal wiring and values
