In this episode of #MeetCoolPeopl, I had the pleasure of welcoming Casey Hasten, director of recruiting and coaching at VIP, podcast host, and powerhouse CEO Success North Dallas. We dove into discussions ranging from the significance of making valuable connections to the power of saying 'no' to events that don't align with your goals.

Casey shared the key elements that have significantly contributed to her success and personal growth. We also tackled the art of balancing professional commitments with personal time, something Casey has mastered to maintain her well-being and productivity.

Here are a few key nuggets we covered in our conversation:

- **Professional Networking**: Casey stressed how networking events changed her life, especially meeting Bill Wallace, who introduced her to Success North Dallas. She highlighted the importance of being selective with your networking to ensure it adds value to your life and career.

- **The Power of Saying No**: We discussed how crucial it is to guard your time. Learning to decline events or commitments that don't serve you or align with your priorities is vital for maintaining your health and focus.

- **Commitment and Prioritization**: Casey provided insights into how managing commitments through clear and decisive choices can lead to greater effectiveness and satisfaction in both professional and personal spheres.

- **Personal Development**: Casey's pursuit of always learning and the creation of her journal, "Awaken Your Potential," shows the importance she places on continual growth and empowerment.

- **The Role of Routine**: A structured morning routine, influenced by Hal Elrod’s "The Miracle Morning," helps Casey stay grounded and productive, demonstrating the transformative power of dedicated personal time.

#MeetCoolPeople

We have this amazing technology that keeps us closer than we've ever been yet we're less connected than ever and have become slaves to our technology. 

The same technology that was meant to be a tool to help us make life easier and be closer.

The #MeetCoolPeople Movement is to change that. 

It's a reminder to put the phone down and pay attention to the people you're with right now.

It's a reminder that social media is there to connect and add value to the people of the world. Use it to Promote what you love, not bash what you don't.

It's a reminder to use that technology to reach out to someone that you can help and be there for them. Find out what they need right now and use your vast network to help make their day better.

It’s a reminder to thank someone for helping you out.

It’s a reminder to introduce someone you meet to someone you know can help them.

And it's a reminder that we can grow to amazing successes but not alone. It requires the help of others. 

So surround yourself with people that make you better and make it your mission to #MeetCoolPeople!

Thank you again for helping spread the word and have an amazing day!
