We’re down to the final two weeks of 2022. That means just two more editions of the TwentyPercenter before 2023. This week, the call to action is to turn your experiences into insights. Next week, I’ll share the most powerful habit I’ve found to kickstart your year.

I recently caught up with Laura Gillott. Laura’s team is based in Lebanon, Oregon, a town of about 17,000. Nevertheless, her team sold 552 homes for $196M in volume this past year.

Today, I’d like to share one of my favorite ahas from our 2022 ONE Thing Goal Setting Retreat last weekend. For the past six years, we’ve hosted a two-day retreat to share a framework for setting near- and long-term goals from a foundation of purpose and values.
On November 6, 2022 at 2am, most of us will set our clocks back an hour. It’s the annual shift from daylight savings time to standard time. In direct violation of the spirit of daylight savings, the extra hour of daylight will almost universally be spent on an extra hour of sleep. With inflation being what it is, it may be the only extra of anything we get for a while.
One afternoon, I noticed my partner, Mitch, had the number “1,440” framed on his wall. This was probably a decade ago when he was just starting his role managing Gary Keller’s family office.
