What Is Your One Thing? ► Rilke's Take on a Modern Conundrum

The Creative Life — with Jim Kroft

Welcome back to "The Jim Kroft Podcast"!

In this episode, we explore what it takes to focus on your 'one thing' amidst the noise and demands of modern life.

As I've discussed previously, one of my own challenges with this podcast has been to keep consistent while juggling my own film business and recording my new album.

I've been experimenting with new formats to complement the interviews and conversations I have, and today's episode is a new iteration.

You will find an "off the cuff" introduction followed by the main podcast:

⏰ Timestamps:

• 1.6.50: Jim’s personal intro
• 6.55: The Podcast on Rilke

We all know how hard it can be, not just to get our projects going, but to prioritise them in the sea of demands modern life places upon us. Today, I explore some of my pain points this year and the solutions which have helped me make progress.

I hope they help anyone working on a creative project, a side hustle or a business.

Inspired by Gary Keller and Rilke’s wisdom, today, we explore how to navigate distractions and find clarity in a fragmented world.

🔥 What’s Inside:

• 🧩 The importance of clarifying what your main project is
• 🕰️ The hidden impact of endless distractions
• 🧘‍♂️ How to listen to the voice that knows what is best for you
• 🌌 Rilke’s advice for uncertain periods
• 🚀 Actionable steps to align with your ‘one thing.’

Whether it’s creative blocks, social media addiction, or simply getting started, this episode offers insights and practical steps for those seeking direction.
