The Daily Mastery Podcast by Robin Sharma

To have the weight of the world on your shoulders and the stress of excellent opportunities and the livelihoods of many (or a few) within your responsibility isn’t easy. Yet it truly is a gift. You wouldn’t have this pressure if you didn’t also have the associated talent to handle it. Victims face tough times and grow smaller. Real leaders and the best among us meet challenge—and rise into their p...

Being authentic means daring to voice your thoughts and beliefs, even when they challenge the status quo.   It’s about recognizing that your perspective is valid and valuable.   When you speak your truth (even if your voice shakes), you not only empower yourself but also inspire others to do the same. Each time you choose honesty over approval from others, you create a cascading effect of authenti...

Bravery is not the absence of fear; it is the willingness to act despite it. You’ve heard that a million times. And so have I. Because it’s the truth.   Every courageous step you take toward authenticity opens new doors and possibilities. Imagine standing at the edge of your comfort zone, heart racing, yet knowing that the most profound growth lies just beyond that threshold. It’s true: all you ha...

Worldly success without peace of mind is fool’s gold, yes? I know many celebrities who you would think have it all and yet, in reality, have nothing. Because they lack serenity. [What a great and gorgeous word: “serenity”]. I’m sure you’ll agree that there’s no point in having lots of things and fame + fortune yet losing the quiet that lives at your core along the way.  This is what my latest book...

I encourage you to measure your success less by how many followers you have, how much money you own and how much power you possess and more by the freedom, joy, great health, love and beauty that fills your days. This is what my latest book The Wealth Money Can’t Buy is all about. Real wealth versus fake success. True winning versus spending your life climbing a mountain, only to find out at the e...

While owning my power to create my life, I also must say that investing in my knowledge and learning has been the single best investment I’ve ever made. Why? Because…   …as you become wiser you will shorten the success path.  …as you become braver you will turn fear into winning. …as you become stronger you’ll get amazing things done that weaker souls just can’t get done.  …as you become more purp...

It’s so easy to put off fortifying our health and making time for relaxation [so you hack the inflammation that causes disease and physical destruction]. Yet monumental leaders are extremely physically fit because weak health is a massive vulnerability. Imagine living to 100, full of energy and without illness. Marvellous. Or simply being so healthy that you get very good things done, enjoy every...

Work less yet far more intensely. This habit is so very powerful. The best of the best—especially in the creative and athletic fields—generally only work 5 hours a day. Yet, the hours they are work are filled with peak work versus distracted toil. My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your posi...

Take care of the relationship and the money takes care of itself. Too many in business are focused on grabbing cash versus serving people. Yet when your dominant focus is on building relationships with your team, suppliers and customers (who put food on your family table), economic rewards are the byproduct. Get great at building a rich social network—and being of use to as many human beings as po...

Do the difficult things that you don’t feel like doing yet you know will make you stronger, faster, bigger (of glory) and better. So—just maybe—the most powerful word in the word is one of the simplest: YES. Say yes to the scary new project that will push you to grow. Say yes to the trip you’ve been postponing for years. Say yes to giving the speech that frightens you terrifically and the new frie...

You’ve been born into so much promise and talent yet our gifts and genius become shackled by fear. Doubt. And disbelief.  We have been programmed to play small. To live within the box society has handcrafted for us. To think, be and do like everyone else. Sad. Scary. One thing people who change the world all have in common is a mighty mission. Whether it’s a charity that helps the hungry or an ent...

Do not allow even one day to go by without pushing yourself to make a micro-win. This could be on growing your personal mastery or in your fitness or within your capacity to love or in the building of your business or around your influence on other human beings.  Noting your micro-wins in your notebook is a splendid way to battleproof your hope and bulletproof your inspiration. So you stay on cour...

Suffering has always provided soil for awesome creativity, next-level productivity and innovation. In the quiet times of my own life’s largest heartbreaks, I retreated from the world [like a wounded animal retreats to the woods for healing]. And I remained in the wilderness—befriending the pain and allowing it to purify me as much as possible. My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full o...

I truly believe that kindness wins. ...I viscerally know that the humblest is the greatest. ...I have personally experienced that the most compassionate person in every room is the truest leader. This is what my latest book The Wealth Money Can’t Buy is all about. Real wealth versus fake success. True winning versus spending your life climbing a mountain, only to find out at the end that it was th...

Members of the majority stop moving ahead on their ethical ambitions as soon as someone calls their dream unreasonable and impossible. Great entrepreneurs turn criticism into energy, roadblocks into highways and understand that someone’s opinion is just an opinion. They know that all visionaries are initially ridiculed before they are revered. My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full o...

All of us have a luminous Call on our lives—some mighty mission that our destiny demands that we experience. ...To fail to do so is to imprison the glorious fire within us. ...And to generate a well of pain at our core. …I’d like to offer you this question that I encourage you to begin reflecting on to make your rise, starting today: “What are my Big 5?” In other words, what are the top five prior...

The things you schedule are the things that get done. And without a clear plan for each week, you’re certain to be reactive instead of peaceful, productive and strategic. So, early every Sunday morning set a discipline to build out your ideal week ahead. Add your workout blocks, your family meals and your massage periods. Write in your creative segments and record your times for team meetings. Get...

All that matters is today. For what you do over the next 24 hours truly is creating your future. Because days become weeks then months then quarters then years then decades. Right? My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness. You can order it now...

At a time when the majority are suffering from Broken Focus Syndrome, the empire-makers have developed the magnificent ability to concentrate almost completely on the near-flawless execution of the few projects that will make their ethical ambitions real. When they work, they do real work versus fake work and understand the violence of being busy being busy. And wasting hours of their finest days...

One thing people who change the world all have in common is a mighty mission. Whether it’s a charity that helps the hungry or an entrepreneurial startup or a piece of art that will inspire many, change-makers have a personal Mount Everest that electrifies their focus, passion and dedication. This is what my latest book The Wealth Money Can’t Buy is all about. Real wealth versus fake success. True...

Legendary leaders and movement makers of the past have spellbound their followers by deploying the language of hope. And employing the vocabulary of possibility. That’s not about being naturally gifted. It’s about reading every relevant book you can get your hands on so you grow into a genuine master of your craft. My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original to...

Hard work are not bad words. For years I’ve been an encourager of rest, recovery and refuelling as a means to sustain top performance, increase creativity and forge the longevity that will lead you to legendary. Having said this, taking your work—when you work—super seriously is mission essential for a life of joy, confidence and grace. Work richly and with dignity, giving more than you receive an...

Each day you receive a gift: the chance to show kindness to others. To neglect this present is to misuse your days. This year, become the most generous person you know and watch your life shift vastly. Buy the kitchen staff an excellent bottle of wine after your next great meal. Invite the taxi driver you have a brilliant conversation with in a foreign city out to coffee. Help people on busy stree...

Messy periods reveal how strong you’ve made yourself (through your routines and daily practices). They also pinpoint all the internal work still left to do.  Learning how to do the healing work required to unfreeze your repressed emotions and process through the old pain that has cemented your ancient wounds will free you. Unlocking and displacing past trauma isn’t weak. Nope it’s only the game of...

Everything that is happening is unfolding not to fill your life with difficulty but to strengthen and upgrade you so you know true victory.  Nothing is a waste. Every event can serve. All is good. Even if it looks bad. My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellnes...
