SHOW NOTES:

  • How can your next chapter be even more impactful, fun and joyful than the first half was?
  • At 14-years-old, Lloyd’s father helped him purchased a few acres of land, charging interest which taught him values.
  • "What do I need to do to pass down the values of generosity, honesty, and hard work before passing the monies down."
  • A successful building developer inadvertently taught him the importance of significance beyond success.
  • Lloyd was introduced to Bob Buford, author of best-selling book Halftime and they created The Halftime Institute.
  • "Sloppy busy": Your calendar is full but you have a nagging lack of focus and leverage that you had in your career.
  • Resist the temptation to start working on the solution and take the time to think through your core strengths.
  • Gallup’s Strengths Finder 2.0 played an important role in their children being heard. Get a copy or share each other’s strengths as I did with my family.
  • Don't just jump in and get "sloppy busy." Take time to reflect on who you are and the best place you can give back. Ask yourself:
    • When was I at my best?
    • What was the most painful experience in my life and what did I learn from it? Very often our pain from the past calls out a path for our future.
    • Think about who you are and not the work.
  • Valuable vs. priceless:On one side of the paper, write a list of all the valuable things your life. On the other side, write the priceless things. What are you doing to protect the priceless things?
  • Have a healthy mid-life renewal: Get clear, get free, get going.
  • Intentionality: Lloyd strives to help other leaders be more intentional in not only how they give their time away but also building a world-class family.
