In Books and Resources, Goal Setting, Leadership Advice

What if thinking 10 years ahead actually helped you move faster today? In this Coaching Minute, I sit down with entrepreneur, author, and mindful leadership advocate Rob Dube to talk about 10-year thinking and why it’s one of the most powerful mindset shifts for CEOs, entrepreneurs, and driven leaders.

Rob is the co-author of Shine and co-founder of The 10 Disciplines.

His work focuses on helping high-achieving leaders balance drive with clarity, purpose, and peace. In this conversation, we explore how long-term thinking actually improves decision-making right now. In this conversation, we discuss:

Why driven leaders often struggle with both success and peace
The difference between 10-year goals and 10-year thinking
How long-term vision improves decisions today
Why clarity comes when you slow down
How to use your drive in a more focused way
Creating success without sacrificing relationships
Leading with purpose while still achieving big results

I also ask Rob to share more about his True Self Mastermind and how leaders can develop both their inner and outer worlds to create more impact and fulfillment.

If you’re a CEO, entrepreneur, or senior leader feeling the pressure of short-term thinking, this conversation will help you step back, gain clarity, and lead with intention.
