Finding True North with guest Paul Beam of the True North Man Podcast

Paul Beam is a proud veteran who served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 2000-2004.  ​In 2013 Paul decided to make some changes and finish his studies.  During his course of study Paul founded ManCamp in 2015 and would later form the True North organization (2016).  In 2017 Paul graduated from Concordia University where he obtained his B.A. in Communications, Religious Education, and Psychology.  He has since obtained credentials in life coaching, creates and instructs courses for men, hosts the True North Man Podcast, speaks on vision, identity, purpose, and life-change, and is also an ordained minister.
​
Paul’s childhood and life choices have led him down a path where he now feels it is his duty to call men to a higher standard of living lives with purpose and intentionality; Lives of service to others rather than service to self.

Scoring Your Life : Understanding Level of Effort

Scoring is a measurement of Level of Effort (commonly referred to as LOE in the Technology world). This level of effort is a scale you might have seen used as "Low" "Moderate" "High" in the past, and functions in a similar way.
 
Because not all tasks and actions are created equal. There are certain things we need to accomplish that are easier than others, and this needs to be accounted for. Just because you got 10 things done this week and 2 the next, doesn't necessarily mean you were less productive. Those two things could have carried a much larger LOE and could actually mean you got MORE accomplished.
 
Through a numbering system that makes sense to you, and keeping that consistent. I prefer a deviation of the Fibonacci Sequence which uses numbers to dictate the level of effort needed to complete a task or action.

Ep. 211 : What Are Bricks? Mission Critical Tasks to Win the Day

So far in this series we have talked about EPICS, Sprints and Stories. This is the next step and the most important step in the entire process.
The Agile and Scrum methodologies were missing out on this, and that's why I fixed it. If you want to go back and listen to the previous episodes go right ahead, after all they will help you better understand this episode and you will get the most of your year, and will see the most progress. However, if you have to listen to only one podcast I ever do, this is the one.
This is not the end, but the half way point. Next up will cover scoring, backlog and icebox - but none of those matter in comparison this episode.
 
We Cover:
What is a brick?
Why bricks are important
How bricks play into stories
Why stories are too high level
How bricks keeps you focused
How many bricks are too many
What to do when a new brick comes in to screw up your day
The 1:00 feeling and how to overcome it

Ep 209 Write Your Story: Creating Stories to Define Your Epics

Welcome to the next step in our EPIC journey and tackling those goals we have established for ourselves. The next stage here are Stories.
Stories are short stories that make up your Epic journey.
They are the things you wish to accomplish, that don’t necessarily need to be daily tasks or actions (although some of them will be).
In Business these could be prepping for meetings, actions needed to take towards developing and application (like building out the user navigation for example), and then Outside of business and in your personal life this could be something you wish to hit in a 2 to 3 week period.

208: Crush Your Goals, Guaranteed.(What's a Sprint?)

Now 2021 is here. We have our marathon, no pun intended – in our EPIC.
So now what?
Well, Lets talk about Sprints.
In a previous episode I talked about what an epic is and the reasoning behind them. With the new Year here, your resolutions should become your epics – or at least influence them. I tend to stay away from EPICs that I can’t directly control or that hold one time endings.
That’s where sprints come in.
A Sprint is a two week period where you should be attacking your goals. These sprints are made up of measurable tasks that we chip away at on a daily basis through Bricks. But how do Sprints work?
Allow me to introduce the ceremonies. Three ceremonies that will change the way you approach your goals forever.
