The Daily Mastery Podcast by Robin Sharma

When you are building something meaningful, be deliberate about what you let in. Use the news strategically, not reflexively. Seek out places that elevate you—art galleries, forests, great architecture, open water. Visit the spaces where beauty lives. Your environment is not a passive backdrop to your creative life; it is an active ingredient in it. The people you surround yourself with, the places you choose to work, even the music you play—all of it is either feeding your creativity o...

Although I spoke a lot about legacy years ago (even wrote a book on it 25 years ago called Who Will Cry When You Die?), I no longer think it’s a thing worth pursuing. Because we’ll be dead. So who cares what people say? Better to be great and brave and excellent and loving while you’re alive. That’s the irony: care not about your legacy and live gorgeously now and you’ll automatically create a grand legacy. I'm truly super excited over the upcoming release of my new book The Robot and t...

To be human is to crave a cause. We all need a powerful purpose to get us out of bed every morning and draw out the finest within us. I viscerally believe that one of the dominant reasons so many amongst us are addicted to distraction and living amid apathy is they haven’t found something larger than their own lives to stand for. Once you find your compelling cause, begin to share it with your community. Talk it up. Blog it out. This will give your followers hope + energy + drive. Your job is...

To not die when you get knocked down is to play with the gods. And soar with the angels. Sometimes—in the hardest and darkest of times—what helps you survive and then thrive and then fly is putting one foot after another foot, after another foot. Small baby steps that eventually get us running again. The key is not to give up. Never ever never ever ever ever ever never ever! (Thanks Winston). Not to become an injustice collector. Not to give up on your heroic ideals and your...

Sure you can meditate and pray and heal and go silent. All such practices work. To help you step into who and all you’re meant to be, as you realize your highest destiny. But, if you and I were having coffee at a simple yet soulful cafe in some special and perhaps even mystical far-off land (Bhutan is on my list) and after a sip or two, you asked me “Robin, what’s the one spiritual skill that lifts every other spiritual skill?” I’d reply, after a sip or two, “learning to get really really rea...

Most (not all!) of the billionaires, celebrity CEOs and famous entrepreneurs that have come to me for mentoring over the past 3 decades have one thing in common: they are ultra-rich yet happiness poor. It’s just the reality. They are obsessed with success, needy for more and consumed with making their disruptive visions come to life. Nothing else matters for these humans. I help them grow even bigger, better, more inventive companies while showing them proven systems and protocols to sl...

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 possible—and wealth, satisfaction and deep meaning will follow. My latest book “The Wealth Money Ca...

One of the primary assets of genius is time mastery. [Time management is so old-school; the true sport is to master it]. Watch someone stuck in a victim mentality and a life of scarcity and you’ll see they waste their time. On the other side are the rare-air few who get amazing projects done, dominate their domains via their skill and lead lives of boundless joy and fulfillment [because service is the DNA of happiness]. The Top 5% of producers, guard their time fiercely. They are up early,...

Yes, it’s true: you’re being watched. And so am I. Each day, in all we do -- at home and at work and on the street -- people are watching how we speak and the way we behave and the quality of our integrity. The best leaders influence their followers by understanding that every move they make sends a signal to their team on what behavior sets the standard. In my leadership keynotes for fast-growing companies I share the term “LBE”: Lead By Example and note that it’s the opposite of CBE: ...

Having mentored many of the world's most successful human beings over many years, I can share with you that they have a lot of common traits. For example: —they are wildly curious —they are less scared of saying yes —they understand that failure is a gift —they know that relationships are key —they agree that disruptors win —they focus less on cost and more on value —they relentlessly invest in their growth My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools ...

We all have hard seasons. Stages where the ground on which we stand seems to crumble, nothing seems to be in our favor and the winter seems endless. To know pain, to endure suffering and to feel as though the trial will never end is to be fully human. And to become most intimate with life itself. “A bad day for the ego is a great day for the soul”, though. From what I can tell—and who truly knows the way the world works—that which appears to unmake us is the very season that rebuilds us. Our ...

I find myself thinking about the people who show us what it truly means to serve humanity. And when I think of that kind of leadership, Nelson Mandela tops my list. His grace. His courage. His forgiveness. His kindness. No matter how busy he was as president of South Africa, he always had time to shake the hand of a cleaner, offer a word of encouragement to a server, or share a laugh with a child. The true measure of a person is how they treat those who can do nothing for them. As I think...

To refuse to surrender to apathy by exposing your artistic instincts to the light of day is to really live. We all were ever so creative as kids.

In a world that often pressures us to conform, the true essence of greatness lies in embracing our authentic selves. Each of us is a unique tapestry woven from experiences, dreams, and passions. To live authentically is to honor this tapestry, to present ourselves to the world without fear or reservation. It requires bravery—a courage that inspires us to break free from societal expectations and to express who we truly are. Being authentic means daring to voice your thoughts and beliefs...

Ordinary companies chase quarterly earnings. Legendary companies play an astonishingly long game. Amazon’s Jeff Bezos insisted that decisions must make sense 5–7 years out—not just next quarter. In a Bain & Company survey, 81% of top-performing firms said they tie major initiatives to long-term value creation, not just near-term KPIs. These companies innovate patiently, hire strategically (you can’t have an A-grade business with C-level players right?), and invest like they’ll own the fut...

Great leaders move from being “busy being busy” to being monomaniacally focused on the few things that matter most. In a distracted world, they are disciplined executors. They choose depth over speed, completion over motion, and impact over appearance. They make the hard decisions to prioritize what truly moves the mission forward—and they inspire others to do the same.

The famous CEOs I mentor and the celebrated billionaires I advise and the sports heroes I guide and the entertainment royalty I train are ALL “strategic worriers.” Yes. Yes. Yes. “Strategic Worriers.” This means that, of course, they meditate and journal and pray and exercise and nature walk and use their mantras to upgrade their Zen. Inner peace is a priceless treasure. And yet, they never lose their fire. They REFUSE to get stale. They never mail it in. They always bring it on. And th...

Imagine that each day of your life you had spectators. Yes, an audience watching the thoughts you run through your brain, the habits you apply through your hours and the way you operate around your activities. I’d bet you’d raise your game. And push a little harder to be the person you aim to be at your end. So yes, people do watch what we do, even if we fall into the trap of thinking that they don’t. And our reputation is based on the richness of that doing. My latest book “The Wealth Money ...

Life isn’t short — we simply squander it, trading depth for busyness, presence for performance. The problem was never a shortage of time. It was a shortage of attention paid to what actually matters. To run your life like a robot. To schedule every waking hour to maximize your performance. To treat a day as a race. This blocks your creativity and reduces your poetry and closes your soul. This won’t make you happy, in the end. So, of course — have great habits. Use your power to realize your g...

Brilliant leaders turn problems into possibilities and adversity into results.

Hard becomes easy and easy becomes hard. What I mean by this is that by choosing hard projects and hard books to read and hard workouts to do and hard ambitions to pursue, the struggle will make you stronger, braver and better… …which eventually makes for a happier, healthier and easier life. And in choosing a life of pleasure, trivial pursuits and lightness in all cases, the pain of your potential unrealized creates deep and lasting hardship. So when faced with a choice, I gently encourage y...

When you see your work as your craft, everything sort of changes. Craft requires devotion. It requires repetition, refinement, patience and restraint. Real work is often slow, solitary, and invisible. It asks for patience, concentration, honesty and humility. It resists shortcuts and NEVER chases trends. In an age that rewards frequency over depth, choosing real work is an act of courage. And moral conviction. My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original too...

If unprepared, the stone-throwing of the critics and cynics can take you down. Use ridicule as fuel to show the world all you’re made of. And what you can accomplish.

Forgiveness isn’t condoning the behavior. No. It’s more about understanding that everyone does the best we can based on how we think. And, as Maya Angelou observed: “If they knew better they would have done better.” How they behaved made sense to them at the time (read that twice), even if their actions were foolish and hurtful.

Working 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.

Leadership is not a title. It is not a corner office, a name on a door, or a position granted by someone you might work for. For over 25 years, I have been sharing a single message that has only deepened my conviction: leadership without a title is available to every human being alive. And when you model this practice, you not only elevate your influence, you scale your joy. Whether you are a coder or a filmmaker, a teacher or a CEO, a parent or a student—you can lead. Because leadersh...

Remember who you’re here to serve. Know who puts food on the family table and obsess upon the human beings who love what you do. And then go all in for them.

Plateaus don’t happen from lack of ambition. They happen from lack of daily design. Most driven, high-energy producers: • wake up reactive • rush through their mornings • overcheck their phones • overwork and push too hard • neglect mental and physical recovery • end their days depleted and stressed That cycle quietly limits growth. And over time, erodes a human’s assets of genius. My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely ...

There are two types of power: fake power and true power. Fake power is fleeting, limited and fragile. Social standing, financial worth, positions and titles all come from the realm of power. True power is much more substantial—and sustaining. It’s real and it’s honest and it lasts. Your natural creativity, productivity, bravery and decency belong to this universe of power. At the current evolution point of our world, the majority reveres the first form. Those with the most social media follow...

Understand that the real reason for your life is to use what happens as fuel for your growth. As I wrote a fair amount about in The 5AM Club where Mr. Riley is teaching his students how to “enter the magic” while they meet on a vineyard in South Africa, life is not random [as far as I can tell]. So much of what happens to us arrives in our lives as perfect training to make us into the genuine heroes we’re meant to be. FOLLOW ROBIN SHARMA: Instagram Facebook YouTube

Karma is real and even though it sometimes doesn’t look like your acts of good will receive a reply, they will. First, it’s good for your soul to treat people well, keep your promises and leave others better than you found them. Second, when you train your brain to deliver rich value to each one you meet, with consistency and sincerity, they become your fans. You open their hearts. Your helpfulness makes them really really really want to help you. And so unexpected blessings come your way.&nb...

There’s a real difference between being busy and being productive, as you know. Most people are extraordinarily busy. Very few people are extraordinarily productive.

Study for an hour a day. It’s remarkable how many people are unprepared. They show up for meetings with little advance knowledge, deal with customers with minimal expertise and have little sense over what they want their future to look like.

Whether you’re a CEO, a startup founder, a bread maker, a student or a teacher, you are an artist. When a meaningful project calls for your full attention, give it exactly that—by removing everything that competes for it.

There is a signal available to each of us—an inner intelligence that knows exactly what to create and how to crea...

A key principle in the methodology I share with organizations who bring me in for leadership work is The 10x Value Obsession. Yes, become outright obsessed with delivering rich and extreme and unexpected value to everyone you meet (not just your customers!). In all encounters, ask yourself “how may I most be of use to this person?” Do this and your power to withstand the heat of these topsy-turvy times will rise. And the people will reply to your value delivery with their own gift-giving. Gre...

I do believe that the finest goal for a life greatly lived is to work daily to remember who you truly are (before the busyness and hurts of the world blocked you from this knowledge). I am speaking of that part of you beyond flesh and bones. That part of you that is… …heroic versus egoic …brave versus insecure …loving versus selfish …peaceful versus worried As you build and strengthen that relationship with your highest and best, every other relationship rises with you! …your rela...
