218: The Concept of Day One and the Power of Putting Pen to Paper with J.D. Frost

37min | 01/30/2023

Description

It’s so easy to get lost in the mundanity of life that we lose sight of each present moment. But what if we just focused on today, and make each day our Day One?

On today’s episode, Duane speaks with J.D. Frost, author of the book, Life Ledger: How to Build a System to Reach Your Goals, where he dives into the concept of Day One, the power of writing, and how keeping a daily ledger of your life helps you gain the clarity that you need to help you reach your goals.

J.D. Frost is an accountant and the co-founder and CEO of Croft and Frost, a husband, and a father of three girls. J.D. started drinking at 19 years old and became an alcoholic. In January 2018, his family finally did an intervention for him – something he’s now super grateful for.

In this episode, you will hear:

The concept of day one
To accomplish anything, you must write something down.
How to get the habit of writing started
Auditing your day through a daily ledger
Accountability is a reminder of what you want.
