At the recent Peers Network Speaker event, attendees were treated to a wealth of knowledge from two dynamic speakers: Jarvis Leverson and Kyle Whissel. Their sessions, though focused on different aspects of personal and professional growth, combined to form a cohesive guide for mastering your day and maximizing productivity. Here’s a recap of their key insights.
Jarvis Leverson: Mastering the Morning
Jarvis Leverson opened the event by emphasizing the importance of starting the day on the right foot. His philosophy revolves around the idea of "filling the joy tank"—an approach to ensuring that you begin your workday fully energized and motivated.
WIN: Wake Up, Intention, No Days Off
Wake Up Early: Jarvis believes in the power of an early start, advocating for a “power hour”—a dedicated, undistracted hour first thing in the morning. This is your time to focus on yourself before the demands of the day take over.
Intention: Setting clear intentions is crucial. Jarvis recommends journaling, writing down goals, and brainstorming the actions you’ll take to achieve them. This practice not only sets a positive tone for the day but also provides a clear roadmap.
No Days Off: The compound effect of consistency is key to long-term success. By showing up every day, even when it’s tough, you build momentum that drives lasting results.
Jarvis’s approach is all about ensuring that your day is productive and aligned with your goals, right from the moment you wake up.
Kyle Whissel: Obsess Over Time
Following Jarvis’s focus on the morning, Kyle Whissel took the stage to discuss how to make the most of every hour of your day. His message was clear: time is your most valuable asset, and obsessing over how you use it is crucial for success.
Live and Die by Your Calendar
Strict Time Management: Kyle stressed the importance of living by your calendar. Every minute of your day should be accounted for and used effectively.
Efficiency Hacks: From buying an electric vehicle to eliminate time spent at gas stations, to using food delivery apps to save on meal prep, Kyle shared practical tips for reclaiming time.
Minimize Meetings: He also advised minimizing one-on-one meetings and avoiding the habit of scheduling in 30-minute increments. Instead, he suggests scheduling meetings for only the time you actually need, which could be as little as 10 or 15 minutes.
Outsource Where You Can
Kyle challenged the audience to think about tasks they can outsource, like cleaning, grocery shopping, and even refueling your car. By delegating these tasks, you free up time to focus on more valuable activities that directly contribute to your goals.
Focus on Streams, Not Sales
Rather than focusing solely on individual sales, Kyle urged attendees to cultivate relationships that generate streams of sales over time. This shift in focus can lead to sustainable, long-term growth.
Leverage Systems and Tools
To further optimize your time, Kyle recommended using tools like Calendly for scheduling, Vyte.in for meeting coordination, Trainual for team training, Monday for project management, and Zapier for workflow automation. These tools can help streamline processes and free up more of your day.
Build and Maintain a Strong Brand
Kyle wrapped up his session by emphasizing the importance of branding. He advised investing in a strong social media presence, encouraging positive online reviews, and leveraging platforms like YouTube and podcasts to build authority. Additionally, he stressed the value of community involvement in enhancing brand visibility and fostering relationships.
