The Path to Success Starts with Simple Routines with Bob Frady
We all want success in our careers and lives, but achieving it can seem daunting.?
"Building success starts small with simple daily routines," emphasizes Bob Frady, Co-founder and Vice President of Guidewire HazardHub, a revolutionary provider of API-driven property risk insights that are transforming the P&C industry. Bob recently shared his insights on the "Success is Routine" podcast, highlighting the power of consistent habits in achieving goals.
Bob learned the power of routine early. With a chaotic childhood in a crowded apartment, school gave him structure. This continued as he stayed busy with studies, sports, and work. Though he lost routine somewhat in college, he re-established it by filling his calendar.
Now, Bob Frady sticks to key morning routines:
- Wake Up Early - Frady wakes with the sunrise to have calm time to read or reflect before the responsibilities of the day start. This "me time" provides a sense of control.
- Make the Bed - Making his bed gives Frady an accomplishment to start the day and sets his mindset. He feels off if he hasn't completed this simple task.
He also emphasizes focusing thoughts on what you can control, not dwelling on what you can't. Have core values to filter decisions and guide your life. For Bob, these are being a good husband, father, and person.
Being present is another key. Don't constantly look to the future and miss out on moments with loved ones. Bob learned this from a powerful experience with his son that reshaped his priorities.
He recommends treating your significant other as you did when dating. Don't take them for granted. Make the relationship your keystone.
For business success, Frady partnered with someone whose skills complemented his own rather than trying to be great at everything. Do what you enjoy and outsource the rest.
Getting things done right away eliminates excuses and unfinished tasks weighing on your mind. Take responsibility of your situation and actions instead of blaming external forces.
For those without established routines, Frady suggests starting with small steps:
