Your Last 10 Minutes

Jan 30, 2022

Excited to launch a new season of the Rise Up With Dragon Podcast:

This new Season and Series is the latest creation and commitment from The Dragon. Inspired by the unpredictability of how much time we have to live our best life and the question of what will you think, say, and do actually matter in the last 10 minutes of your life. Enjoy a new shortened structure in the Rise Up With Dragon 🐉 podcast that you can use to Rise Up and make every 10 minutes count.

Today it’s fitting to speak on URGENCY. 

“You’re gonna die!” Those were the three words shared by Influencer Gary Vaynerchuk when a fan asked, “Gary, in three words, what’s the secret to success?” The Stoics refer to this as a mortality mentality.

Urgency is the ignition of your goal engine. 

“People that bring transformative change (to others and to their lives) have courage, know how to reframe the problem, and have a sense of urgency.” Malcolm Gladwell.

To go a little further and to make things relevant for you today, urgency is also correlated and connected to a sense of awareness and level of consciousness around time.

MLK said, “We are now faced with the fact my friends that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the FIERCE URGENCY OF NOW.”

Understanding the fragile unpredictability of our time here in our life experience helps you shed the idea that things can wait ‘til tomorrow. That thing you want to get done tomorrow must be done today as tomorrow is a mystery and all we have is today. Access your Wanted List. The things you want. Narrow it down to your NEEDS list. The things you actually need. Then create urgency around the few things that you MUST have and make everything about your gift of today about full-on action to support them. You’ll be surprised what you can accomplish when you clear your plate from stupid things that don’t matter and go after the important things with urgency.
