Is there value in 360 seconds? (CoopNotes - 6 min)
360 seconds. 6 minutes. 1/10th of an hour. Just 4 tenths of 1% of our day.
Can it make a difference? Can it be THE difference leading toward a life of meaning, purpose & impact? Don’t real life changes involve hours of preparation and ongoing work? Or could a 360 second window of time open us up to a new world of opportunity?
Welcome to a special episode of the Catalyst 360 podcast. I’m your host, Dr. Brad Cooper, CEO of Catalyst Coaching 360, and if you’re a regular listener you know most our episodes generally run about 40-60 minutes. The growth of the podcast tells us you like that approach so we’ll continue doing so… usually.
But we also know that sometimes you’re not looking for a full length episode. You just need a boost – something short and sweet that you can pop on as you step outside for some fresh air, make your morning coffee or prepare your lunch for the next day. With that in mind, we’re going to occasionally release something new here on the Catalyst 360 podcast – the 360 Boost. These special episodes will be no more than 360 seconds – that’s 6 minutes or less – and they’re intended to provide you with a boost in your day, a spark to jumpstart that next project, or a little encouragement to live life more fully.
So let’s jump in – can 360 seconds really make a difference? To answer that, perhaps the best place to start is to examine this window within the context of the 4 Catalyst Cornerstones: Move – Fuel – Rest – Connect.
