This is the first episode for the Quality Living Made Simple podcast. My name is Joshua Rivers, and I am your host. No, I don’t have it all figured out. I’m just trying to learn to improve my life and share my findings with you.
Purpose
We all want to have a quality life. We run into difficult situations all the time. The purpose of this podcast is:
- To understand what it really means to have a quality life
- How to build and maintain that life with simple tips, tools, and tricks.
Today, we’ll look at:
- Some simple tips to help with focus
- Short lesson about accomplishing things
- What does it mean to have a quality life?
- Review of questionnaire/survey
Simple tools and/or tips – “4 Strategies to Sharpen Your Focus”
- Identify your learning style
- Visually map your time and tasks
- Fidget to help you focus
- Break up the tedious tasks
Short lesson (Nothing Undone)
(Joshua 11:15) As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.
Some related principles:
- Life is too short to do everything you’re supposed to do.
- That means something must be left undone.
- You show me what you leave undone, and I will tell you what kind of Christian you are.
- Most of us leave the important things undone and do the less important things.
- The reason for that is, big things never clamor for you time.
- So the important things must be done on purpose.
Three words: opportunity, intentionality, dedication. We must be intentional about what we do.

Nice work Josh! I think we all struggle with the things you are talking about. I look forward to hearing your interviews!
I know it’s a big step to get a podcast going and wish you the best with it!!!
Thanks, Bob! That’s one of the reasons I felt led to start it. I feel much more comfortable with writing than speaking, but I think I can help more people with the podcast.
