Dr. Dave Jones: The Three Vision Problems That Keep Successful Men Stuck in Average Lives
Driven 2 Thrive: Purpose, Growth, and Lasting Impact For Men
Manage episode 523431175 series 3304766
Ever feel like you're drifting through life without clear direction, making decisions based on whatever feels right in the moment? You're not broken—you're just missing the foundation that turns ordinary men into focused leaders who know exactly where they're going and why.
Most men think core values are corporate buzzwords or motivational fluff. They roll their eyes at vision statements and dismiss mission planning as something for boardrooms, not real life. But here's what they don't understand: without these foundational elements, you're essentially driving cross-country without a map, GPS, or destination in mind.
The Three-Part System That Changes Everything
Dr. Dave Jones breaks down why most men struggle with direction and purpose:
- Vision: Your North Star—where you're going and why it matters
- Mission: The specific steps and strategies to get there
- Core Values: The daily decision-making boundaries that keep you on track
Learn why these three elements work together like a perfectly seasoned burger—you can't just focus on one ingredient and expect the whole thing to work.
The Pro Athlete Mindset Applied to Real Life
Drawing from his experience as a professional hockey player and performance coach, Dr. Dave reveals:
- How elite athletes use repetition and commitment to achieve excellence (not perfection)
- Why 10,000 hours of practice creates expertise—and you're closer than you think
- The difference between a growth mindset and fixed mindset in daily decisions
- How Michael Jordan's approach to "learning opportunities" can transform your failures
This conversation provides the practical framework for men who are tired of feeling like they're just going through the motions. From the neuroscience of habit formation to biblical principles of leadership, you'll discover how to create the foundation that turns daily
