What I’m Reading: Strategic Acceleration

May 20, 2019/0 Comments/in Blog/by Kevin Guest

Strategic Acceleration: Succeed at the Speed of Life, by Tony Jeary

Strategic Acceleration by Tony JearyThe latest “What I’m Reading” installment — Strategic Acceleration — highlights a book I’ve found incredibly helpful as I continue to grow and learn as a leader.

Tony Jeary, the author, is a good friend who’s helped me and other members of the USANA management team over the years. The message in this book really boils down to this:

  • Clarity
  • Focus
  • Execution

We have to be really clear about who we are, what our goals are, and what we want to accomplish. Then, we’re able to focus on what’s important and execute to achieve our goals.

When we’re clear in our goals, it allows us to focus on the task at hand, whatever it may be. With that, we’re able to execute on those goals strategically.

I think all of us in our lives, whether it’s in relationships, with USANA, or with health, we all could use more clarity.

Strategic Acceleration is a great read. I encourage all of you to take the opportunity to pick it up and please let me know your takeaways.

About Tony Jeary

For more than two decades, Tony has advised CEOs and other high achievers on how to discover new clarity for their vision, develop focus on their direction, and create powerful execution strategies that impact achievement and results.

Social Sharing: Communicating Effectively

May 6, 2019/1 Comment/in Blog/by Kevin Guest

Recently in Singapore, I joined thousands of my friends at the USANA Live Asia and Pacific Convention. And I thought about the topic of social sharing.

The Asia Pacific Convention is an event I look forward to each year. The energy is electric, the enthusiasm contagious (a few photos). You can’t help but smile when you see group after group of health-conscious entrepreneurs striving to make a difference in the world.

Facebook - All the Right Reasons Announcement 3If you’re on social media, chances are you experienced a bit of that electricity. And if you did, I hope you continue to share pieces of what you saw with your own social networks.

As I mention in the video above, I believe social media is so important. It’s how the world communicates. It’s how we’re able to effectively reach thousands of people with relatively little effort.

But some effort is required. The true power of social media, I believe, is when we leverage our communications by sharing with our own social networks.

I hope you’ve noticed that I’ve become more active on social media lately (Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter). I’ve asked and challenged the USANA management team to do the same.

Are You Ready to Share?

Now, my challenge for you: When you see posts or photos or videos from me, others on the management team, USANA’s offices around the world, or your own teams — please share the messages.

There is power in numbers. When we join together to share strategically and communicate effectively, our potential is limitless.

The Plato Principle: Surround Yourself with People Who Will Help You Grow

April 29, 2019/0 Comments/in Blog/by Kevin Guest


I recently returned from USANA Live — our annual Asia Pacific Convention. It’s an event I look forward to each year. The energy is off the charts and the enthusiasm is invigorating.

I intentionally surrounded myself with thousands of people — Associates and Employees — who are dedicated to making a difference in the world.

It reminded me of The Plato Principle, which I discuss in depth in All the Right Reasons.

In essence, The Plato Principle involves being open to those around you and having people around you who can be a positive influence. Surround yourself with good people that will help you grow.

I think it’s so important, especially in today’s world, to have an open mind and to be teachable.

Seek Advice From Others

It’s not a secret that one of my idols is Paul McCartney of the Beatles. Not long ago, I had the opportunity to sit in on a sound check with McCartney. There were only a few of us in a large stadium.

He walked out and I was off to the side. It was interesting to watch his interaction. He actually walked up to the crew, to his band members, and he hugged them. Then he sat down to sound check his piano. He asked for input on different settings. He was asking for advice and interacting.

Here you have arguably one of the biggest celebrities in the world. He walked out, engaged his crew and his other band members with hugs, with a warm friendly interaction.

But then he was asking questions through the process. I was learning from him, one of my idols and icons, someone who’s been a mentor from afar.

No matter what level you’re at or where you’re at in life, consider these two things:

  1. Respect people. Respect who they are and be open to their advice and interaction.
  2. Surround yourself with good people. Learn from them. Have an open mind. And most importantly, be teachable.

Thank you to all my friends in Singapore and from around the world who made last week so memorable. I’m re-energized and excited about the future!
