July 11, 2022The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 530 – Lessons on Leadership – Part II – Hiring: Humble, Hungry & Smart
https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/Episode_530-Lessons_on_Leadership-Part_II-Hiring.mp3
Today, Steph Tuss, and I are talking about how to hire the best person for your business or team. Most people don’t understand how to hire or fire someone. People tend to hire people they like, or people who are like them—but this is a mistake.
If you want to win in business, you must hire the best person for the job. Instead of treating your business as a family, it’s better to treat it as a professional sports team. As “general manager coach,” your job is to make sure each position is manned by the absolute best.
In this episode, we discuss:
What Steph has learned on her journey of hiring, firing, and team building
How most people make decisions based on avoiding conflict and avoiding being uncomfortable
How our company made an enormous paradigm shift in hiring by thinking of ourselves as an elite sports team, rather than a family—because nobody wants to fire their family, hold a family member accountable, or have a hard conversation with them if they’re not meeting their KPIs
Specific things to look for when you’re hiring someone—and why you should find someone who’s “humble, hungry, and smart”
What being humble, hungry and smart actually looks like—and which questions to ask during the interview process to determine if someone has these traits
Why “sunshining” your mistakes creates psychological safety within an organization
Why you should pay attention to how a potential hire is showing up, because who a person is “being” is everything

Having the best player in each position ensures that you can create the right culture in your team. In our company, we say all the time, “What’s in the best interest of the company?” It’s easy to default into saying, “What’s in the best interest of me?” or “What’s most comfortable for me?” But decisions need to be made based on what’s best for the whole company.

July 04, 2022The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 529 – Lessons on Leadership – Part I – Scaling: The Key to Scaling Your Business
https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/Episode_529-Lessons_on_Leadership-Part_I-Scaling.mp3
One of the most common things we hear growing up is, “Why should I hire someone to do it, if I can do it myself for free?” But as entrepreneurs, the only way we can grow is if we receive support and hire help.
Business owners only have so much time in a day. There are only so many tasks you can manage, and only so many people you can talk to. So if you want to grow and scale your business, you must delegate and allow yourself to receive support. The problem is, we’re raised with the idea that we must be a “self-made” person and do everything ourselves. This idea comes from the working class mindset.
In this episode, Steph Tuss and I discuss:
Why people have difficulty being supported in their business—and why so many are a “one-person show,” doing everything themselves and wearing all the hats (and this prevents them from scaling and growing)
How some people get their value from doing everything themselves at the expense of their self-esteem (and how this boils down to a “core wound” issue that says, “I’m not enough”)
Why my decision to sell my John Deere tractor and never cut my own grass again led to “more life” for three different people (myself included)
How hiring help gives other people and yourself an opportunity for growth—because it’s all for more life
How there’s shame associated with asking for help
Steph’s experience with starting a nutrition business with the goal of replacing her teacher’s salary—and how she discovered she could increase her earning capacity if she took specific things off her plate

Plus, we share an exercise to uncover the excuses you have that are rooted in fear, that are causing you NOT to hire the help you need. Learn the importance of scaling your business today.

June 30, 2022The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 528 – Full Throttle Thursday – Soft White Underbelly: The Whittaker Family
https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/FTT_Episode_528-Soft_White_Underbelly.mp3
“Soft White Underbelly” is a YouTube channel created by Mark Laita, a photographer who interviews and humanizes marginalized people in society. Many of the individuals featured have survived traumas and are living difficult, rough lives. It’s a huge series, with over a thousand videos uploaded onto the channel, interesting stories, beautiful photography, and millions of views.
In today’s episode, BT and I discuss one video in particular of the Whittakers, an inbred family from West Virginia whom Mark has interviewed multiple times. They come from a family that is obviously limited intellectually, physically, and verbally. Their understanding of things is limited. By watching, you can see that the most intelligent part of the family has the least amount of incest. The deeper the incest goes, the worse it deteriorates. The average person probably doesn’t want to see these people and will pretend they’re not there. But Mark brings their stories to the surface.
We discuss:
The range of non-traditional individuals Mark interviews on “Soft White Underbelly”
Why I’m on the fence about whether or not I like this YouTube channel—because most people are probably watching it for entertainment, not to help
How “Soft White Underbelly” reminds me of when I was young, traveling through different parts of the United States and saw homeless people, interviewed them, and talked to them, while trying to understand their plight
How people who live in abject poverty protect each other and defend the life they live
How, from a resourceful aspect, even homeless people are able to get what they need to survive
What I think Mark’s motives are for creating this channel, and whether or not it’s exploitative
How he takes the Whittakers to Walmart, gets them clothes and food, and buys them appliances

Jordan Peterson spoke on the “disgust factor” in human beings and how we seem to have a genetic reaction to certain things that impact our survival. A healthy individual will most likely be repulsed by certain things that would potentially harm them psychologically, emotionally, physically, or in other ways.
I’d encourage you to watch the video on the Whittakers and think about what your first reaction is—and why you’re reacting that way.

June 28, 2022The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 527 – Think About What You’re Thinking
https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_527-Think_About_What_Youre_Thinking.mp3
Very often, we have repetitive thoughts running through our mind over and over again where we can’t make decisions, and we’re stuck in fear. The voice in our head says we can’t or shouldn’t do something, and we’re reliving the past. It goes on and on, never-ending. One of the most common questions I get is, “How do I get this to stop?”
For a long time, my rescue dog, Ferguson, did crate spins where he constantly went in circles—because he was abused by his previous owner and was left in a crate constantly. A dog spinning like that is a physical representation of what happens in most people’s minds of what happens when we can’t come to a resolution about something. It becomes somewhat of a threat to us. Our mind doesn’t know what to do with it, because we’re not resolving it—so it spins.
In today’s episode, you’ll learn:
Why we don’t see this repetitive, “stuck” behavior in nature unless humans get involved
How my dog couldn’t get away from the people who were abusing it, but it still had an instinctive desire to move, because that’s in its DNA—that internal impulse is strong, regardless of the fact that it can’t go anywhere or logically think about it
When humans keep suffering the same problem over and over again, it’s very similar to a dog spinning in its crate
A lot of people live in the past
The way to resolve the mental “spinning” is to condition your mind to the truth around the situation; give it a resolve—separate yourself from the thought and bring truth to it
The illusion is that “because there’s movement, something’s happening,” but if there’s no clear outcome on your part, then you’re not really moving

When you’re experiencing the same problem over and over again—or having the same thought patterns repetitively—ask yourself, “Why am I thinking what I’m thinking? Why am I constantly repeating this thought process?”
To stop the spinning, ask, “What is my outcome? Where am I going? What’s the direction I’m moving in?” You must have a destination. The spinning will stop once you begin to move in a straight line. You have to retrain your mind to move in the direction you want it to go, every time.

June 27, 2022The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 526 – Mindset Monday’s – What Makes You Feel Significant?
https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_526-What_Makes_You_Feel_Significant_.mp3
Many years ago, my mentor Bob Proctor made an observation about great salespeople. He said, “If you look at any salesperson who is really good, they have a completely different belief system and a different level of intensity about them than your average salesperson.”
To be successful, salespeople and business people MUST have an intense level of belief in something. What do you believe in? What’s your mission and purpose? When you approach your business, your life, your sales, and everything else with a passion—with a different level of intensity—you can have a significant impact in what you do.
To understand this, we can look at people who do missionary work. They need a high level of intensity and belief to be able to go somewhere and convert people to Christianity (or whatever religion they have). The amount of rejection and ridicule these folks get is unbelievably intense.
In today’s episode you’ll learn:
How I felt like I was on a mission (even before I started my business) because there was a sense of purpose for me
Everyone has a specific purpose—given to them by God—and it’s the reason why we’re all here
Your job is to discover your purpose inside of yourself, and nobody else can tell you what it is
Your purpose, mission, and how you help people should be where you get your significance and fulfillment from—by doing whatever you’re put here to do
Why you should love the work you’re doing, no matter what you’re doing, and do it to the best of your ability—because that’s what you have to offer humanity
Human beings need the cycle of “ups and downs,” which are a part of the law of rhythm
Why we need to stay focused on our purpose—on the things we’re here to do—even during these strange times

When you know your purpose, you also know what NOT to get involved in, because it’s not part of your purpose.

June 23, 2022The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 525 – Full Throttle Thursday – LIV Golf & Making Sense of Sportswashing
https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/FTT_Episode_525-LIV_Golf_Sportswashing.mp3
In the US, sports are sacred. They’re a source of bringing excellence and inspiration to the world. The way we’ve built sports, they’ve become part of the backbone of what we stand for and who we are.
Recently there’s been a practice of “sportswashing”—where an individual, group, corporation, or government uses sport to improve their tarnished reputation. They host an event, purchase a sponsorship or a team, or participate in the sport itself.
The LIV Golf tour is a professional golf tour that’s financed by the “Public Investment Fund”—a sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia—which has a lot of oil money behind it. If someone shoots a 54 on this tour (which is virtually impossible), they’ll get $54 million. The PGA is up in arms about this, because they say they’re destroying golf by having this tour, and the PGA can’t compete with that.
In this episode, BT and I discuss:
Why sportswashing might crush golf as we know it—and why other sports might be next
How Saudi Arabia pumps money into a product (football—a.k.a soccer in the US) to make people forget about their transgressions, questionable activities, and human rights violations
How we’ve seen sports being hosted in places with horrendous human rights records—like the Olympics in Russia , the Olympics in China, and soon the World Cup in Qatar
How COVID changed everything, and more and more people are now playing golf]
How the younger generation is being targeted by sportswashing, because they’re not very tied to the past, and they’re motivated by money
Why people who are playing in the LIV Golf tour are receiving backlash for accepting “blood money—just by being paid by this Public Investment Fund from Saudi Arabia
How most of the public doesn’t realize how much business we do with countries that have human rights violations—and how the US being beholden to China for products and services makes us prime for a takeover

I think the more our sports get stripped away in the US—and it becomes more about the money than the sport itself—eventually, we’ll get to the place where the sport doesn’t matter anymore. Before you know it, your favorite NBA team or professional football team might be owned by money that’s not coming from here.

June 21, 2022The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 524 – You Are the Author of Your Own Life Story – Part II
https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_524-You_Are_The_Author-Part_II.mp3
In today’s episode I’m continuing where I left off, teaching from Don Miguel Ruiz’s book, The Voice of Knowledge.
All human beings live in a story of their own creation. That goes for your family members too. You live in your own story. Your mother lives in her own story. Your family members all have their own story, their own beliefs, and their perceived role that you have.
For example, your mother can swear that she knows you well, but is it true? She has no idea what you have in your mind. She only knows what she believes about you…which means she knows almost nothing.
In this episode you’ll learn:
You are a secondary character in another person’s story
As a secondary character, you play a role for someone (e.g., your mother sees you as her son or daughter—she creates an image of you, and she wants you to fit the image she creates)
Everyone in your immediate family has created a story about you—and a role—which began in your childhood
That story and role begin to change as time goes on
We live in an increasingly agitated society about what people believe—and many young people believe we can control what others believe, but they’re in for a rude awakening, because we cannot

Remember, everyone is dealing with their own individual story and how you show up in the role of that story. If you don’t show up according to someone’s story, they’ll feel hurt by you. They’ll try to make you fit their image of you. They’ll feel the need to control you, tell you what to do, and what not to do.
The best thing you can do is not to defend your point of view, but to change the conversation, enjoy that person’s presence, and love them anyway.

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_523-You_Are_The_Author-Part_I-MIDROLL.mp3
In The Voice of Knowledge, Don Miguel Ruiz has a chapter called “The Storyteller.” In it, he questions everything about his beliefs about himself and invites us to do the same.
Throughout our life, we all live in a story of our own creation, without even noticing it. We should question our beliefs about ourselves. Are they true? Or were these stories just passed down to us as “knowledge” from someone else? In today’s episode, I’m reading and teaching from this chapter.
You’ll learn:
How more than 90% of the concepts we have stored in our minds are based on lies—especially the concepts we believe about ourselves
How a “whole society of storytellers” existed before we were born—and how generation after generation of people shared their “knowledge” with us (which is really just stories of what they believe)
How the stories we are told (i.e., the knowledge we’re given) might not even be accurate—it’s often based on someone’s religion, superstition, or even witchcraft
We can’t ever truly know everything about a person; we can only know what we believe about them
There’s a whole side to every person that’s just theirs, that you don’t know (and I often tell people to “look at your secret thoughts” if you want to find out what you truly desire in life)
How you can reinvent yourself by changing the story you have about yourself

Our beliefs about who we are have incredible power over our life—even if those beliefs aren’t true. Ask yourself, “What do I believe about myself?” Most of us believe whatever the “storytellers” told us (i.e., our parents, teachers, society, etc.).
You have the power to change what you believe—and you can change the story you’re living. You’re the author of your own life.

June 16, 2022The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 522 – Full Throttle Thursday – Recreational Manifestation
https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/FTT_Episode_522-Recreational_Manifestation.mp3
Throughout my life, I’ve had a history of being able to manifest the things I wanted, whether it was in business or other areas. In 1993, I had an obsession around fishing. However, I made the decision to give up that obsession, so that I could focus on my business and family interests. Because of my obsessive nature, I have to put all my energies into a specific direction (I can’t have them split).
I closed the door on fishing and never considered doing it again…until the past two years, when the desire to own a boat and start fishing again showed up for me. Recently I manifested the boat I wanted—even when boat production has been delayed throughout the country.
In this episode, BT and I discuss:
Our interesting manifestation stories around boats, recreational vehicles, and the power of intention—and how our company has gone on a buying spree lately (especially with buying RVs)
How I manifested the perfect boat, in the color I wanted—but only AFTER I was about to settle for a different boat that I didn’t want
How I’ve had similar manifesting experiences with my Bentley, my Aston Martin, the house I live in on the water, our office, our team members, and even moving
How the universe wants you to have the things you want more than you want to have them (Wallace Wattles wrote about this in The Science of Getting Rich)
How BT and his wife, Steph Tuss, manifested their desired Airstream instead of settling for something they didn’t want
Why you should pay close attention to your desire if it never goes away—because something else is trying to get in (you just have to let it come in)
Don’t give up on your dreams. If you feel an ‘itch’ to go out and do something—go out and do it. Stop waffling on it. Make the decision, take action, and get out there and do it today.

June 14, 2022The Successful Mind Podcast – Episode 521 – Life Is a Dance Between Desire and Fear
https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/content.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM_Episode_521-Life_is_a_Dance_Between_Desire_Fear-MIDROLL.mp3
Your success is the equivalent of what you can get yourself to follow through on. What you follow through on, is a “dance” between what you desire the most and what you fear the most.
If you let fear stop you, then you stop. If you desire safety over uncertainty, adventure, and risk—then you let that desire for safety stop you. The idea is to push to another level and break through the fear—because that’s the only way you’ll grow.
In today’s episode you’ll learn:
Fear makes you instantly look at why you CAN’T do something—it wants you to look at the facts, the figures, and the past, which causes you to stop in your tracks
How I learned to “recruit up” when I worked with a network marketing company—which means “find people who are more effective than you are and who have more influence”
How I was able to recruit doctors by getting past gatekeepers and trying a new approach
If something’s not working, you don’t give up—you change your approach
Most salespeople are very concerned about rejection; superstar sales people don’t care about rejection—they’re completely driven, money focused, sales focused, and they want to put numbers up on the board
Why sales people must be consistently resourceful to keep creating the numbers and the sales
Going into a fear state won’t make you resourceful

Every day, your job is to break through fear in order to get yourself to do what you need to do to become as successful as you want to be. The only way to do that is by setting a higher standard for yourself—and immediately taking action on the opportunities that come to you.
If opportunities don’t come to you, then you have to create those opportunities.
