A free agent journey coming to fruition

April 11th, 2012 by Agent Kevin Miller

We had a deep, candid discussion with James Woosley today. He’s gone from being a member at Free Agent Academy, to a leader. He has his own coaching business. Yet…he’s still employed with a company. But he’s very much…become a free agent.

Today we discussed:

1. Golden handcuffs
2. Community
3. Commitment
4. Getting started > read more

Why I want to be free and why it’s not enough

April 3rd, 2012 by Agent Kevin Miller

I’ve been called “The Pied Piper of free agency”. Sounds good until you remember that the initial Pied Piper led all the rats to the sea to drown, then led the children from the same town away, never to be seen again. That’s not really something I want to be related to.

So I’m the evangelist of free agency and being ‘free’. Free from the grind, the culture, the matrix. But why? I’ll give you some reasons, then tell you a quick story. > read more

How would you rate yourself in these areas – THE SHOW

March 23rd, 2012 by Agent Kevin Miller

Coming to you live from my Suburban and a mifi card…I asked people to rate themselves in the 7 crucial areas that we’ve outlined as inhibiting people from the free agent pursuit. For the most part in this live show, I just read responses from the blog comments. Pretty darn insightful, I think you’ll gain much from hearing what folks shared.

Warning…the audio is very, very subpar. Forgive me. It was either this, or cancel the show, as I was at a rental house we own while guys were installing new carpet, and I put a new sink in one of the bathrooms!

How would you rate yourself in these areas?

March 21st, 2012 by Agent Kevin Miller

In yesterday’s show, Justin Lukasavige and I discussed seven primary areas where…if there is not a level of awareness and understanding and sustainability…people get stuck on the journey to change in their lives (free agency!).

It would help us much, to hear your story and see if we are on track.

I’m going to list them out here, then my question to you is…where do you feel you’re at in these areas? And again, we are not saying you must be perfect in each area. The question is merely…

A) Are you adequately aware, understanding and sustainable?

OR…

B) Is there a void? Are you unaware? Is there stress or crisis?

<>

1. Finances – Are you fairly stable, with some margin to invest in yourself? Or are you in survival mode, barely making it and possibly even going downhill?
2. Health & Wellness – Are you at a decent level of physical and mental health and wellness? Or are you in ill health and somewhat disabled from functioning at your best capacity?
3. Greater Purpose – Do you have a greater purpose in your life than just yourself? Something you are committed to, or desire to serve? Or are you pretty much just in seeing your own world and not really plugged in to anything beyond yourself? (and hey, no judgement here…I’ve been at a time in my life where I wasn’t looking beyond me too)
4. Personal Purpose – Even with a ‘greater purpose’ there is still a personal purpose. A task or goal or desire or direction that understand is for you. Do you have clarity on this for yourself, or…are you unclear? ‘Rudderless’ in a sense?
5. Relationships – Do you have healthy relationships? Relationships that are supporting and inspiring and filling you? Or are you in harmful, hard relationships, and possibly even suffering from relationships in your past? If you’re married especially, are you on the same page together? Lifting each other up, or pulling each other down?
6. Self-image / Self-confidence / Self-esteem – Do you have a healthy level of belief in yourself and your abilities and your overall self worth? Or at the core, do you believe yourself to be ‘unable’, lacking, undeserving? (this is a big question that you must be introspective on and real in regards to how you are living this out in your life)
7. Personal Values – Do you know what your personal and life values are…literally and tangibly? What you are, or want to be convicted and committed in? Or, are you somewhat unclear of what you really value in and for your life?
8. Other? – is there something primary that is disabling you that we left out? If so, please let me know.

Do all those make sense? Are any of them confusing, or seem off base?

NOW…I’m asking you to either rate yourself in each area, or simply state any area(s) where you know you are not in a good place. Again, this will help us tremendously as we seek to help more people be adequately equipped for the journey to free agency!

I’ll be discussing this on today’s Free Agent Underground Show:
- Wednesday, March 21, 2012
- 2pm PT / 3pm MT / 4pm CT / 5pm ET
