I was talking to a friend the other day, and he said, “I can’t believe it’s already the year 2020. It seems like it turned the year 2000 just yesterday.” Indeed, it does seem hard to believe that the whole Y2K hysteria was twenty years ago.

One of the common themes you’ll hear associated with the year 2020 is the concept of vision. It’s a play on words because “20/20” also refers to perfect eyesight. I can’t think of a better guest to help us think about the power of vision and seeing what our lives can become.

His name is Dr. Wayne Pernell, and he’s going to walk us through some ways to increase the power of our lives through what he calls The Significance Factor. I think you’ll love this powerful conversation.

Dr. Wayne Pernell, (also known as “Dr. P”), is a highly sought speaker, #1 International Best-Selling Author with five books, and he’s a Global High-Performance Executive Coach who brings more than thirty-five years of experience in helping leaders set new strategic targets, gain clarity and confidence, and attain heightened success.

He has been a guest of countless podcasts and has been seen on television around the country as well as contributed to Fast Company, Entrepreneur, and the NY Times, among others.

After earning his doctorate in clinical psychology, Dr. Pernell began working with leaders across a broad array of organizations including Schwab, 3Com, Whole Foods Market, and AAA in addition to running a $6.5M organization and holding executive-level positions in Organization Development.

In our conversation, you’ll hear about a life-transforming moment that he experienced around pizza (!), his approach to writing, why The Significance Factor is such an important topic, and also his “Starts with One” movement, of which I’m a huge fan.

Key Takeaways

1. Bankruptcy can be emotional.
2. Short books are great!
3. Remember that you are writing for others.
