I\u2019ll cut to the chase:\xa0this week\u2019s podcast episode is an absolute master class in Life Design.\xa0If there is one single bit of friction in your life or you have even the smallest hunch that you want to make a change in your life, this episode is for you.\xa0

Today, we\u2019re talking with my friend, Dave\xa0Dellanave. Normally, this would be where I put someone\u2019s very official-sounding bio, but Dave is one of those people whose life and accomplishments don\u2019t fit neatly into a polished paragraph.\xa0\xa0\xa0

Dave is a world record holding\xa0deadlifter. He is an entrepreneur who has successfully sold one company and the founder of one of the most successful gyms in the country. He\u2019s a skydiver with 1400 jumps and counting. He\u2019s an olive oil importer, and a documentary film maker.\xa0\xa0

He\u2019s\xa0all of\xa0these things, and he has next to no credentials for any of them.\xa0Rather, he is the type of person who is continually asking himself whether the journey he\u2019s on and the way he\u2019s spending his time is aligned to who he is at his core.\xa0\xa0\xa0

Yes, it may seem like Dave\u2019s accomplishments make him a bad example for me to feature on this podcast. It all seems a bit untouchable. However,\xa0each and every\xa0one of these accomplishments came not from a big, sweeping achievement. Rather, they came from\xa0constant tinkering, adjusting, experimenting, and progress.\xa0

Small, incremental improvements. Every. Single. Day.\xa0

Every single one of us could be doing the same thing, and Dave is an example of what can happen when you commit to doing that.\xa0

During this conversation, we hit on so many key points about Life Design:\xa0

• The fact that many of the \u201crules\u201d we all live our lives by are, in fact, assumptions, not rules at all.\xa0
• That knowledge, in particular the type of knowledge you get from DOING something, is more valuable than a formal certification.\xa0
• How very small improvements, small \u201cPR\u2019s\u201d every day can add up to incredible progress over time.\xa0
• And finally, what to do if you\u2019re feeling stuck. He offers some great advice about where to start.\xa0\xa0
