Lucy Dutton: Energizing Conversations for Introverts

I do really believe 100% from every part of me that everyone has the capacity to be able to do the things that they want and not to be held back by the mental baggage that's in our head that we want to push through.

Welcome to the do the Thing podcast. In each episode, we get down and personal with people who go after the things they want to make all their wildest dreams come true. Join us as we unveil and dissect a formula for what it takes to do the thing. Here is your host, Stacy Lauren.

Hello, everybody. Oh, my goodness, you guys, we are in for a treat. We have the fabulous Lucy Dutton with me today. All right, Lucy. Well, here's the thing. I am just so excited to do this with you because we've been in each other's worlds. I think it's been a year, actually, is when we met, right?

Yeah. Over in Houston. That's right, yeah. Yeah.

And I heard what you did. Right. And I was even on your podcast. We've gotten to talk many times, but until you actually see someone in action. Right, Because a lot of people can say stuff, but when you can physically with your eyes, see what someone can do, that's when I think everything changes. And that's really what happened with my experience with you, because you've always been with the way that you're able to help people with performance and habits and confidence and all of the amazing things that you do. But it wasn't until you actually joined my wealth experiment program, and I'm like, oh, my gosh, Lucy, what are you doing? How are you doing it? And you're like, oh, Cece, duh. It's. You didn't say that mean, but you're like, performance coach. That's what I do. And I'm like, oh. So I just thought that would be fun to kind of start there.

It's so funny. That's so funny, because I think a lot of people when then they read as peak performance coach, it's like, well, A, what is that? Or B, isn't that for athletes? And then they don't think any further than that. I mean, I can't mind read, but I imagine that a lot of people do that. It's like, well, what do you do? What does that actually mean? And it means that you optimize your performance because you want to be the best that you can be at the one thing that you do and everything else around it then can fall into place. Right. And so when I went into the peak performance side, I found that I was doing a lot of those things already, just really, really naturally. And then I added in some extra strategies through a training that I was on with an amazing group of people and just have got some wonderful things up my sleeve to be able to help people even more. But I love it when people can just get more done in less time and with less stress and less anxiety. And I think it's very much actually what you do, Stacy. And I don't think you realize that you do it a lot of the time, but it's the micro steps. It's those small steps. And you think, well, that's not really going to make any difference, but it makes a huge world of difference if you just keep doing micro steps.

Yeah. I just am thinking of what could we actually do with our lives if we are able to really tap into the side of ourselves? Because what do we all want? I mean, even more than money? We want time. Right. We can't get our time back. And the fact that you have a secret hack to be able to do the things that you want and to do it in the minimum amount of time. I mean, whoa. Right? And the fact that you actually. You guys, she doesn't just talk about it. She literally lives it. I've seen it with my own eyes.

I think that's the difference between a teacher and a coach. You can teach stuff. I don't necessarily live it, but a coach, if you're a good coach, you're going to be doing that thing that you're teaching, and if that's high performance, you're doing the things that you're teaching. I remember going on to a training with a group, and one of the guys there went, so do you do all of this stuff that you're telling us to do, Lucy? And I went, absolutely, yes. It shocked me that he thought I wouldn't. Yeah.

Okay, tell us everything. So we'll talk. Even my program right now, because I feel like I'm going to learn from you because I want to help everyone. And watching you go through the dares has been magic. And even when you had to go out for a week for a personal thing, and that would be when most people would then stop, right? But no, you got right back in momentum and then caught up. And so I would love to know how you're doing that, because most of my challenges have only been 17 days. Now that I'm doing the wealth experiment, that's a much longer thing to sustain. And I've learned the next time I launch the program, I've Got to do better because 17 days, I'm good. People are really good at following through because that's such a short commitment that it's easy, but the longer one is a lot harder. And so I would just love to know, maybe just even some tricks with that. And for those of you that aren't in a do the thing challenge right now or you're not in the wealth experiment, take this for whatever you're going through because there's going to be a lot of value. And what, Lucy, is literally what I'm seeing. I'm sorry, I keep going. I'm seeing this with my own eyes. Yeah.

The thing to do is understand your priorities. Right. So I'm very much a pen and paper girl. And so I will get my pen and paper out and I will. Yes.

I was taking it out as soon as you said understand your priorities. I'm like, oh, I got to write that down.

Write this down. So if you've joined a program, so I joined your program, I paid to be in that program. I want to get the most out of that program. So now this becomes a priority for me. All right. Because why would I pay a and spend the time doing something if I'm not going to go for the best result that I can get? And I think a lot of times the mindset is, oh, well, I paid for the program, now it's going to work. No, you've paid for the program, now you go to work. Right. But the mindset is completely different. How many times, and I'm asking the people that are listening, have you paid for something and you thought, oh, now everything's going to be okay. And you had gone into it half hearted because you think now I paid X thousand pounds or X hundred pounds dollars, whichever country, euros, everything is going to be okay. But it's not. You have to go to work, you've put the money there, you need to put the time aside. So every morning I was looking for that next year because you would put it out at nighttime. I'm eight hours ahead of you, so I'm asleep that time. And then so every morning I would be going on, I would looking at what the day I was, wouldn't necessarily do it straight away, but I knew as much as I could I was going to get it done that day and as quickly as I could.

And the other thing that I love about what you're doing is if you're ever stuck. And that was something that came out during this where I realized, okay, there's a mental blocks that come when you're doing something as big as what you guys are doing. Right. With the wealth experiment. Yeah. And then I had shared. If you're stuck, don't not do the dare. Just tell us why you're stuck. And it's been great. I've seen seen you even do that. And so how do you kind of move past that mind shift that gets in people's way where they could get paralyzed at that moment, but instead you're still in action and still in momentum?

Okay. So if there was a day that I came across that I thought, not sure about that one. I will think about it and then go on to the next day and do the next one. So there were. There were ones that I just thought, I'm not sure about that, and I'm going to come back to it. So I kind of leapfrogged. Oh, my gosh.

This reminds me of taking a test at school. So if I didn't know an answer, I would skip the. I didn't actually ever think about that. I'd skip the answer and then go back to it at the end because I didn't want to get the same idea.

Yeah, because you then let it go around in your head and allow the answer to come. It was one of the ones was inviting somebody on as a special guest. And I was like, I'm not sure who that's going to be. And maybe five days down the line, I thought, I know exactly who that's going to be. And so I've invited. I haven't heard back from her yet, but I've invited her to come on because I know she would just be perfect. But until that time, I just leap, leapfrog, and then keep going.

Wow. Just so you guys know, I feel like this is the key to everything. I mean, honestly, out of everything that's being offered out in the world right now, I think whatever Lucy does is the thing that you should get over everything else. But in general, everything in Lucy's world is something that you should go in and do, because if you have someone that can help you get your time back, I mean, you could do everything. And you help people with confidence, too. Right. So let's talk about that. And actually, let's share about you and what you do and who you help and all that kind of stuff, too.

Okay. So I come from a dancing background. I danced for 10 years, so confidence was going on stage, but with makeup on and with a costume on. Right. So I could feel like I was somebody else when I was going on stage, actually standing up and speaking or going live doing lives was not something I was comfortable with at all. When I came onto social media. And once I finished dancing, and I'd been a teacher as well, I had teaching qualifications, but I only taught while I was at college. And so I then danced for 10 years professionally. And then I went and worked at a natural health center. And so I was doing flotation tanks and I was on reception, doing reception work. And I worked at. My fiance at the time had a recording studio, so I was an assistant in his recording studio. So you do these things as you go along, don't you? We're split up from him. And I worked at a friend of mine making soft furnishings, so cushions and curtains and blinds. So completely different again. And then I went into a health and nutrition company, which I've been with for the last 30 years and was coaching and mentoring, and I absolutely loved doing that side of it. And then the peak performance side came just really, really naturally because like I said, I was doing a lot of that stuff already. And this just gave me the edge on. I can help people to do this part now. So that's one of the things. And my confidence had been knocked sideways. And so helping people with their confidence is one of those things where you can draw. Everybody has the answers inside themselves, and so it's just asking the right questions to draw that out of them. And when they understand that they've got the answer, guess what? That gives them the confidence. But they already had it. It's not something you don't have. It's just something tapping into.

Oh, my gosh. Yeah. So when you were coming back through the confidence, you said, I love the wording. Your confidence was knocked sideways. What was kind of that process that you used to build your confidence again?

Yeah, it was stepping into the uncomfortable zone. It was really pushing myself. I remember in the health and nutrition company, the lady who had introduced me, she said, right, you're going to come up and you're going to tell your story on stage. And so she grabbed me by the arm and she pulled me up to the stage and I got hold of the microphone, forgot my name. I think I told my story in about half a second. I go off the stage and I thought, I am never doing that again. Never doing that again. And then I would do it again, of course, and I would do it again. And I do it again. Because once you've done something, you can go, I survived. I can do that once and survive. I can do it again. And survive. And actually I can probably do it better the next time, which, of course, it does get better and better. And then I was actually asked to speak at one of the conferences. And again, just felt like a jellyfish when I got off stage. And I thought, oh, my God, that was just awful. Everybody's going, oh, really? Well done. Wasn't that fantastic? And I'm like, no, it was awful. But again, I just kept on pushing myself into that uncomfortable space. And that was how I grew my confidence. And I remember, and it was something I think I spoke about with you or Anne Marie, and it was doing questionnaires on the street with. Spoke to you about that and rejection. Okay. Right. And my confidence was still on its way back up again at that stage. And I walked around the town for two hours before I stopped to actually ask my first person. Wow. Because I was just determined to do it.

Yeah.

Would be really, really good. And help others.

Yeah. Just talking to my daughter about this this morning, and actually that's what inspired me to write that question. I did a post, let me just remember the wording I used on my personal page. It said, if you could have the confidence to do anything in your life, what would you do? And so again, we're talking about the skillset that you learned doing the questions. It's like, what can't you do when you know that you can do anything and that you can handle rejection and that it's all kind of the same thing. The no is a no, and you could just move on. And so can we talk about that? Because I feel like if we could help people understand that idea, just imagine what opens up for everyone now. We get time, you get confidence, you get everything.

Absolutely. Absolutely. And it's looking at and seeing. And I don't know if you agree with it, Stacy. It's seeing what's on the other side.

Right.

So if you know that there's going to be a yes, and it's all about the numbers, there's going to be a certain number of no's until you get to your yes. So with the questionnaires, it was 10 before I got to my yes. Right. That was. That was the numbers. Now, I might have had to have spoken to 30 before I got my three. Right. But I knew it was going to be one in 10. But I knew what was on the other side of that. I knew I was going to get a customer or two or three or four within that hour. And then once I realized that, it was much easier to go out and do the same thing again the next time. And then the next time, because I knew the result was, I'm going to help people and I'm going to get money in my pocket. And. And that was the idea of the whole thing, Right? So it's what is on the other side of the thing that you're frightened of. So if you are frightened of getting rejection and getting no's. It was something I was talking to with Anne Marie the other day, and I shared this story in one of the groups was at one of the conferences, there was a guy speaking and he said, we're going to talk about rejection. I want everybody on the front row to imagine they've got a plate of food in front of their favorite food, Right? Favorite plate of food. And he said, and I've got a bottle of tomato sauce here. All right, so tomato ketchup. And he went along the front row and he said, would you like some tomato ketchup? No. Would you like some tomato ketchup? No. Would you like? No. Would you like. Yeah. Oh, okay. There you go. So he got about two yeses out of 20 people and he said, what, were they rejecting me or the product? It just. It wasn't the right time for them to have the tomato sauce now. Maybe when they had another meal, they would have said yes. It wasn't the right timing for that person. And they weren't rejecting him. They were rejecting the product or the service or whatever you're afraid of being rejected on. They're not rejecting you. It's the wrong timing or it's the wrong product or is just not right for them. And thank goodness, because it's not going to be right for everybody. Right?

And when people can tap into that, I mean, then everything's possible, whether it's getting a job or going after a business or reaching new clients or getting a collaboration partner, asking someone on a podcast, dating, literally, whatever you want in the world is like this right here, right?

Yeah, yeah. And you have to go through the nose. And one of the thing is, if there are going to be 10 no's before you get your yes, there's even a book called Go for the no. I've never read it. I'm sure that must be what it's about is Go for the no. And so when I was out, I had team members come with me questionnaire, and they'll be like, oh, I don't really want to have to do this because people are going to say no. And everybody says yes. I'm like, right, we're going to play a game here and we are going to play this game that I, I can get to 20 no's in a row before you do.

Yes.

And so every no that we started marking them off, right. And it's like, oh damn, I got a yes at number 16. I've got to start from the beginning again. And it was just such fun. So gamify your nose if you can do that. Yeah. You were afraid of then gamify the nose.

So you're in the wealth experiment right now, right. And you're crushing it with your dares and just I don't even know you're right on track, I feel like. Which is great. And one of the things we're doing, it's this week or next week, but we just opened the invitation up in the collaboration group. Your group will be opening up the doors for the find your voice challenge. And one of the things that you guys are doing is you're going to be creating a separate kind of bonus for the people that join that are in your group. So that way you're almost using find your voice as a opening for them to be able to expand. And what I was really thinking about as you were talking earlier was when you ask the right questions, all of a sudden they get to see what's inside of them. And that's kind of what find your voice does as a starting point. And then I'm hearing you talk about rejection and the game and all of that stuff. So I was just curious where you are because I feel like all the stuff you're doing with confidence, rejection, the questions, that all goes right along with it.

Yeah, I have two ideas for that. So one is a goal setting challenge and the other one is a five day focus challenge, like kickstarting your focus. Because when you can kick start your focus and just focus on one thing. Wow. Not multitask. Yeah. You're going to get your a lot of your time back and that's when you really gtd, which is get things done and then you can move on to the next thing. So when people can find that focus, it's going to really help them to a get more confidence because they think, yeah, I did it, I've done it, I've done it. I reached their goals as well at the same time. Because if you've done it, you've reached a goal and you do that on a daily basis, you feel good and you get that little boost of dopamine that goes, oh, that feels good. Yeah, I did that. I did that. And so those are the two things that I thought of so far for the bonus. But I'm sure you'll think of other things for me as well, Stacey.

Well, I'm thinking of it now, and yeah, I don't think you've gone through that challenge yet, so you'll see it when it's happening too. I think it's going to come alive for you. But one of the things I teach in there also for people that want to expand their comfort zone even more is they could go up to a stranger or they could go up to someone in a shared experience. Kind of like the TEDx stare that I gave. They can go up to someone and ask them one of the questions they're asking themselves. They still ask themselves the question because that's the meat of it, but they also ask someone else. And that could be kind of fun to encourage people to do and do something with your cohort. I think that would be really fun.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Because what happens is, for me, as an introvert, when I'm able to talk to someone deeper. Because when you're an introvert, it's like the superficial conversations are what can get exhausting. But when you're able to open the portal to the inside of the person and they're who they are, it just now it's nourishing and replenishing. And so I love those questions because it breaks down the wall of people and it just kind of opens it up and you get to say you're in a challenge. It's almost like being an Amazing Race, right? You can go up to anyone when you're in Amazing Race. I don't know if you've seen that show, but you've got the golden ticket. And it says the ticket says to do, right?

Oh, really? Okay.

Do the same thing with the dare. You could have it on your phone or get to do the thing shirt or whatever it is. I've done that before where I'm like, I'm going to do the thing challenge. They don't know I'm do the thing. I'm like, I'm going to do the thing challenge. I need to take my picture with everyone that's on this circle. I did that once around a hotel, and it was so fun. Every single person took their picture with me. And one of the guys was like, oh, can my dog be in the picture? So excited to be a part of something. So there could be something that really comes alive during it, too. That would be fun.

Yeah, Yeah. I mean, that definitely Builds people's confidence when you can go and do that. Because that, yeah, that can be scary. But if you can make it fun, it's that thing of gamifying it, isn't it? That comes back to that.

Okay, I'm going to ask your advice. Do you mind if I just totally put you on the spot and it's okay if you don't have anything. Okay. I literally thought of this idea yesterday where I want to do an in person event. I don't know when, but my daughter. Let's bring up my daughter. And they have this. It's called the assassins or senior assassins. That's what it's called. And they have these water guns and the kids have to wear these floaties on their leg. And they basically are going to school and they get to wear the floaty. But when they don't have the floaty on, they could be shot with a water gun. And so they're basically having to find these kids all over our city and hoping they don't have their floaty on. And so the idea is now I'm like, oh my gosh, this is rejection. We could make it so fun. And I'm like, I could bring people together and almost like what you said, get them to get no's. And I feel like there's something about doing that in person that feels really fun. And I'm like, they could go in a store. I don't know where the assassin thing fits in, but maybe the idea just is somehow making it fun. Maybe there's no water guns involved. But I don't know if anything comes up for you. But that would be. That's something I'm really excited about.

I need to ask you what a floaty is.

Oh, it's like when you go in the pool, you put on floaty on your arm so you in the water. It makes no sense. All these kids are walking around with these pool floaties, basically. It's so funny. But. And I guess that makes sense with the water gun. But yeah.

Okay. So yeah, I've not quite got that in my head. I don't think with that have. So they. Are they assigned somebody who might or might not be wearing the floaties on their arms?

Yeah. So they're. Yeah. Thank you for that. Yeah. So they're basically assigned a kid. I was thinking for my event I would put people in force or something. Especially if they don't know the city. And it might not be floaty related or assassin related. But what I like about a fur do the thing Event, especially with people that want to build their audience or put themselves out there. It's like what you said, right? It's learning how to handle rejection and the comfort zone and all of those things. So yeah, it was just something I was thinking if there. And technically the water gun piece is a really fun piece to add into it. But you're like, we went on a different turn than I was thinking we did.

But I expect that with you, Stacy. Now.

This is doing the thing and so I love this. Thank you, Lucy, for playing. Every time I ever have an idea and I feel like I'm safe with the person where I can ask it and whatever ends up happening, at least I get to start talking about it. And this was what brings the energy alive. And so whether we come up with something right now or later, you're like whatsapping me and you're like, oh my gosh, I have this idea or I all of a sudden, like you said, asking the right question all of a sudden brings it all of a sudden, maybe your questions, your clarifying questions.

Yes.

Are now going to get me to could be watching it and say, hey Stacy, why don't you do this? And so just so you know, everything's designed as this perfect co creation process and this is where all the cool things get created and why I love doing this because we have this, we have people watching people that will also watch the replay. And then all of a sudden this random idea that I thought of yesterday, it now has this place to live, whereas normally it just stays in your head and it goes away.

Yeah, it's so great to have that safe space where you can just speak it out. It's like, I don't know where this came from, but hey, I'm just gonna let what's going on in here.

Okay. Speaking of this, I'm actually so glad this came up. This is one of my biggest problems is the reason why I end up getting exhausted is because I end up getting so activated by all of the things I wanna do. And I wanna do everything. And the problem is I know if I don't have something in motion, it will fall away 100, a hundred percent of the time. And so I have a bunch of do the thing graveyard stuff that it was too much, too complicated or it was the result was too final. The book, for example. And so then it just kind of went away. So I'm curious when you have all these ideas without me having to act on every single one of them with what you're doing with Peak Performance. How do you manage that? So you could still be in peak performance but not also lose all these amazing things that you want to do?

Yeah, definitely. Do you have a place where you have an ideas book or you write stuff down or you voice note it?

Yeah. So I have 55 Google Docs and 3000 voice and I have Voxer and I message and it's all these ideas. It's like if I don't create an event or do a challenge or do something, it goes to space unless someone reminds me about it. It's funny, there was one point where I did the dating panel, the expert dating panel, and Adam, the founder of Callcast, he had given a dare, which was start a podcast for the people. But no one took us up on the first challenge because I did a bonus dare and then it had died. It was gone out of my head. Paul rising in the wealth experiment, he listened to the episode and he was like, oh, are you still helping people start podcasts? And I was like, I'm not, but I can. And then that's how the podcast challenge came alive again. Otherwise, if he didn't ask me, it could have died. And so that's when everything started. So, yeah. So long answer to your question is, is not a good one. And I end up doing all these pieces of paper and I basically. I'm really good. I take the top one, two things and then I put. I forgot to mention my 55 drafts that I have in my email of all of my ideas, because I always forget. Anyway, that's a whole nother story. I'm getting coaching right now. I love this. And so then I end up getting too many of these papers, and then I end up just throwing them away because it's just. I'm becoming a hoarder at that point. Yeah.

So then it's finding a system to be able to categorize them, maybe. Yeah. And not have so many notes. But you've got the notes in a folder so that it doesn't die, but you've got them there somewhere if you need to get them. And then just perhaps putting the title of each challenge or the idea, like podcast challenge or dating challenge or whatever, those ideas are coming up for you. But maybe putting them in alphabetical order or the order that you sort of. It doesn't really matter. And then just checking in every now and again with, does this make sense at this time? Because you're never going to be able to do all of them, Stacy, at the same time. I know you want to. You're a superwoman, you've got superpowers, but you're not going to be able to do all of them. Right?

Yeah.

So you have to trust the universe as well, that the right idea is going to come up at the right time and somebody. Did you say it was Paul that saw it? That will see it and bring it back to life?

Yeah.

Just because that's part of the universal energy. That's how I think of it, as the universal energy is just gone. Now's the right time for that, Stacy.

Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so we have to put this on my podcast, then this live. So then if this idea of me wanting to do this live event with water guns dying nowhere, then someone will listen to it and say, I think.

With water gun space.

What do you do? What's your tracking? How do you actually keep yourself in peak performance and still kind of manage the things that you're doing? Is there a system that you're. Well, I'm imagining there's a system. What's your system that you use?

Yeah, it's definitely putting down all of the things I know I need to do. So not treating this as a filing cabinet. Right. This is not a filing cabinet. So everything has to be written down, whether that's on your Google Docs or in email or I write it down again on the paper.

Right.

So I write everything down, and then the things I know that are repeated every single day or five days a week or whatever, they go in my diary at that time. That. So there's specific timings for things to happen.

Right.

And then as the weeks, months go by, there's something new that comes up. Maybe there's a new challenge, Maybe there's an. I'm working with somebody different. And so then if that thing is a static thing, so like maybe it's a call once a week or it's whatever that has to go in. That's my rock. That is a rock. So you put your rocks into. I put my rocks into my diary first. And then everything else moves around there. So if I've got a rock and somebody says, can you do this time? No, I can't. I can't move that rock. So a bit like your lives, when you set up a live with somebody, that's your rock that can't be moved. And so when you've got that there, you've already started a system. And then I have again a piece of paper and I have headings of different sections of my life. So it might be the coaching side, it might be the Health and nutrition. It might be the house. So I go into personal as well. So it might be stuff I need to do in the house. And I just put the priority one thing underneath that title.

Okay.

If I'm not sure, it's like, okay, I need to do something at the house today. There are 101 things I could do in my house. Right? I could do 101 things in my house. What is the one thing that is perhaps going to be the most necessary thing to do and make other things unnecessary? And then whatever that one thing is. And this is a really key thing. We were speaking about it at the beginning. It's the micro step. And I was talking about this on another. I think it was on the YouTube thing I was doing today. And I went up to my office and I've got a ton of files. Now, some of those things in the files are redundant, but I don't know which. And if I just go, oh, my God, I've got 25 files and I need to sort those out, am I going to do it? No. Right. This is 25 of the buggers. I'm not going to do 25.

Yeah.

So what I did is I just took one and it was the one with the smallest amount of paperwork in, and I looked through it and I ditched the stuff that was irrelevant, put the stuff that I might use to the back, and I basically freed up a whole file to be able to put a few things in. If I do that once a day, once a week, guess what? Within 25 days or 25 weeks, I've sorted out my filing system. So it's breaking it down into the tiny step. Okay.

And yeah, now this leads us back to where we kind of started with the five day Focus Challenge, which could be a bonus for you for find your voice. And I'm just thinking of how much people need that, because especially in our world where people are in this quest of learning. Right? And so there's so much that they want to do with coming to these lives, listening to podcasts, watching videos, investing in programs. And a lot of times people will invest in four different programs because it's like, okay, this one doesn't have everything. This one needs this. But then the problem is you're doing pieces and it doesn't work because you're not following the full system. Right. And so what do you think? Let's just talk about that for a minute. What do you think could help people with focus? And what do you see that looking like with a Focus Challenge?

Yeah. So I've actually written out the five day focus challenge in my challenge book. So I have a specific challenge book. Of course you do. Of course you do. Of course I do. Why wouldn't I love. Actually, I've actually created the videos, the five videos that would go. That are leading into having been lives in a group. That would go into a group.

Okay.

And then I would. Then once they've got the thing to focus on on that day, and then they can. I'd have to. I'd have to go and grab my book, which is probably over there. But anyway, once they've got that thing to focus on for the day, then we'd speak about it on a live at the end of that day or the next day. So then bring all this stuff to you. So that's the idea with the kickstarting your focus and it's focusing on your health. It could be focusing on exercise. It can be focusing on. There are five different categories that I can pull down. So what is the one thing you need to focus on for your health? Well, I'm rubbish at drinking water. Okay. That's all you need to focus on. Don't focus on anything else. Yeah, but I need to focus on my. No, one thing, one thing at a time. Because otherwise you do go into overwhelm. So if you know that you're rubbish at drinking water, drink two liters of water a day and you're drinking zero. Right. Start with water, then two, and then three, and then four, and then you're up to the liter. And now you keep on adding it in. Just do that till that becomes a habit.

Yeah.

Then you can look at other stuff.

Okay. You're just making me realize what I'm missing right now in the wealth experiment. So I don't do this in every challenge, but in some of my challenges, I give them on top of the dare. They get one thing every day that you're doing. So in the dating challenge, the reason why I did it there was because a lot of people, they weren't ready to date. And so the idea of meeting new people or any of the stuff I was doing was hard. But they wanted to love themselves again. So I had them say something that they loved about themselves every day.

Yeah.

And then when I did the podcast challenge, they just had to record something every day, not for the podcast, but just on their phone. I think those are the only two I've done that with. But I think for this it would be good to have one thing. So that way, if they're behind on something else. Then they still feel like they're winning because they're doing the one thing. Don't you think?

Yeah. And then that's repetitive. Every single day.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. What do you think would be the one thing, having been through, we're kind of at the almost at the end of it now. What do you think would be the one thing that would be good for people to do every day?

Invite a minimum of three people to your group a day.

Oh, I like that. Yeah, that's good. That's really good. Cool. This is going to be in my program too, this video. You're going to be on the podcast, you're in the audience accelerator program, and we're seeding all these future things that you're going to be doing. I'm so excited. We get to look back. That's the other thing that's great. It's like we almost get to document the journey. Right. Of your new community being built. We're like, how fun will it be in a year when we're at your live event, wherever that is, and we get to have people see this part of all the birthing of it?

It'd be amazing.

Or my old wide do the thing. We won't call it the Assassins, because that's not good. But the do the thing water gun experiment, and that's old wide thing, and we'll be like, it started here.

In this space. Yeah.

Oh, my gosh, Lucy, this is so fun. I'm like, oh, my gosh. Okay, so the five day Focus Challenge. I am really loving that idea because I think so many people need that because it's so easy to say, okay, this isn't working. I need this, or this isn't working. I mean, think about diets. Just even diets in general. It's like, okay, I haven't lost the weight yet, so now I'm gonna try this keto diet. Okay, now I'm not losing the weight. I'm gonna do this one. Right. I mean, we could say that with everything. And so I feel like when you're able to just kind of. Well, they're gonna actually focus for five days, but you're gonna also help them build the skill and flex the muscle to learn how to do it on their own. I imagine, too.

Yeah. Oh, yeah, A hundred percent. It's kickstarting that focus, knowing that there is more to do, but you have to keep it up. But of course, when it's a challenge, you can go back and you can rerun the challenge. Right. So if you're in a group and you found it useful, it's like, I can do the same thing the next week and just keep going back over and over to remind me what I need to focus on. And if that, if I've got the water thing sus for the diet thing, let's say, what's the next thing I'm going to focus on? Next thing I'm going to focus on is making sure I have breakfast every day or whatever that one thing is. Right? Yeah. I think that might be a good thing as well. Then just to leave that group open so that people can go back in and redo the challenges they want to. Something that popped up for me when you were talking and that kind of butterfly thing. Oh, this isn't working. I'm going to go and do something else. I'm going to go and get another program. It's like at one point I was one of those people that would start a program and not finish it, and I was driving myself crazy doing that. And I was thinking, a, I'm wasting my time and I'm B, I'm wasting my money. So the next program I buy into, I am doing it from the start to the finish. And it's again, it's that mindset shift. So now every single program I've gone in since then, I have done it from the day one to the finish, and I put it into action. And that's the only way, really, you're going to get the results, because you can't give me the results. For the audience accelerator, for the wealth experiment, I have to do the work. We were saying at the beginning, I don't pay the money, and now it's done.

Yeah.

Hey, the money you're helping me through, but I have to do the work.

Yeah. There's something else too with that that's coming up and I lost it. It's coming back. It's gonna come back. It's gonna come. Oh, yeah, your community. I wanted to talk about your community.

Yeah.

Please share what your community is, the name, what you're looking. So just so you guys know, with the wealth experiment, Lucy's creating an online community similar to what we have with the collaboration network, but based on her own shared goal that she's wanting people to achieve in there. And as you can tell, she brings an amazing wealth of knowledge and love and ideas and energy to whatever she's doing. And so, yeah, I'm excited to have you share with it.

Oh, thank you. It's entrepreneurs impacting lives with Purpose, because when you're on your purpose, you have a North Star that you're aiming for, right? You've got this huge purpose in mind. And if you're an entrepreneur, you're going to want to impact more lives in a way that is going to be helping more people that you want to help. Whatever that subject is, whether it's writing books, whether it's doing podcasts, whether it's you've got a product, whether you are a real estate agent, it doesn't matter. You want to impact more lives. And all coming together to help and support each other is what the group is all about as well. So. And then building confidence, because we are helping each other with the areas that we need help with, right? So somebody else needs help, we can help that person because we've got that skill set or somebody else has got that skill set, they can help me. And that's the idea of the group. So entrepreneurs impacting lives with purpose.

You're right. Because in order to be able to do that, you have to have focus, you have to be able to handle rejection, right? You have to be confident. It's all these things that we talked about, and you want to be able to have more time. So then you can actually really impact in the way that you want to. So if it's so perfect, I'm so excited. Is there anything I didn't ask you that you wished I asked you, or anything that you want to share that you would like to share?

I do. I mean, we spoke about it again at the beginning because you came on to my podcast, which was the high performance interviews. So it's interviewing people, if anybody's interested, because I interview a whole range of different people on there that have gone high performance, that have got to that really high level in their business, and some of them are talking about. I actually interviewed one of the guys that trained me in the specific high performance bit that I hadn't got. So I trained. He came on and he went, wouldn't do this for many people, Lucy. But I'll give. Because he just doesn't have the time, but I'll do it for you. And I'm like, and he's amazing.

Well, I think what it is, right, when someone sees you in action, it's hard to not. Because it is rarer to see that consistency is what. I think that's the word. But you might want to add that into your stuff because that consistency is what you are able to do. And the fact that you can stop and then restart with no Kind of time lapse. I'm just even thinking with me, worth working out. I'm in a really great routine, and then I go to Vegas and then I stop working out, and I'm like, oh, dang, I've got to, like, get that into it. But you're right on it. So anyway, yeah, I think that's what happens and probably why you're able to get anyone that you've ever mentored with, because it's like, okay, why wouldn't I want to do everything with you?

So, yeah, so I guess that's one of the things is if anybody's interested in listening to those, just you want to go give some love to Stacy. Especially because I did. Stacy's must been at the beginning of the year, middle of the year.

Yeah, I think it has been. It feels like it's been a while.

Yeah.

It was so fun, though. I enjoyed it.

It was fun. It really was fun. So, yeah, look out for Stacy on the high performance interview. And so.

And how do they find your Facebook group?

Oh, they can literally type that in. Or they can message me. I'm Lucy Dutton. I haven't got my name up here, but yeah, Lucy Dutton, if you're interested, you can message me and just say, I'd love to hop in. It's just for women, though, so sorry, guys. Love you, but it's just for women.

Yeah.

Okay.

Well, if a guy wanted to work with you one on one, would you do that? It's just the community is for woman.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The groups are for women. I can do one on one with guys as well.

Okay, perfect. Okay. Thank you for coming on and also celebrating you for your just amazing success with the wealth experiment. I appreciate you.
