Author of Lost and Founder, Ram Fishkin writes about a MVP: Minimum Viable Product. Meaning an MVP for a behemoth like Nike is different than a startup like Johnny’s Hoodies. Before Nike can launch, they have to consider how it’ll affect millions of buyers, but because no one outside of the neighborhood knows anything about Johnny’s Hoodies, he can afford to make a mistake and correct it with mini...

Failing 9th grade ain’t good. Failing where you are right is great, because fail-ing is a process whereas failure is a label. & if it’s a label then everything you do supports that labor. I want you to start seeing the failing as a plus not a minus. Today I’ll give you 5 ways to look at failing as a + & start negating that false narrative.

When it comes to “decisions, Kevin Systrom, co-founder of Instagram, doesn’t feel that they lead to “consequences” but more-so “outcomes.” I never liked the only word “consequences” as it relates to making a decision because the word “consequence” tends to have a negative association to decision. What if it was a good decision? This episode will help your make better decisions. When making a decis...

Price & Cost seem synonymous but they are not the same. Price is the decision, but the costs are what fuels (or stalls) the decision. Your TSL Post Note: When the price is pretty, the costs are ugly. When you price is ugly, the costs (benefits) are pretty. 🛑 please share today’s episode if you found value 🙏 Leave your comments and takeaways. I ❤️ To hear from you! Send in a voice message: ht...

“Everyone has uphill dreams, but downhill habits.” ~John Maxwell Why is it so easy to eat bad? You can get a 10 piece nugget for $1.49 but a grilled chicken wrap will leave your $10 lighter. Fast food joints don’t want you to think- they make it easy to accept & more difficult to choose hard. A recovering alcoholic said “Drinking is easy, running is hard.” They say nothing comes easy, everythi...

TSL Nation! Let’s get it! “People don’t buy what you do, they buy why you do it and what you do proves what you believe.” ~ Simon Sinek If you want to truly make someone stutter, after they tell you “what” they do ask them “why” they do it in the first place. People can tell you what they do, but they can’t tell you why they do it. If you feel frustrated & stuck it’s because you skipped the li...

Why are some people less talented than me so successful? Keep enrolling for another degree? Keep jumping from job to job? You’ve got imitation brain. Let’s fix that.

“The version of you is perfect for right now, but it’ll be inferior for next year.” Those words were seared into me last night from Ed Mylett. He went on to say, “I am in a constant crises to get to the NEXT VERSION of me.” You need a why? You need a driver? You need a reason to get up? Because there’s a newer version available & obtainable for you. Love who you are, but be desperate to improv...

Say the phrase, “I gotta live with it...” & notice how your mind & body physically & psychology shift. Do you feel strong and able or weak and helpless? It’s amazing when you’re facing adversity, if you remove the word “with” & replacing with “for” how you’ll begin to change your whole situation around. “I (gotta) live with this.” Vs “It’s hard, but I live for this!” “With” is acce...

"The person with their hand always up is going to get promoted before you. They're going to get the office before you. They going to leverage their promotion to a better paying job before you even get a raise. You were better trained, better prepared. But you didn't let the world see that because you were scared. That fear is going to stop you from getting full value for your work....

You’ll often see a pacer in races. They’re the ones out in front setting the expectations of others. Relationships, finances, wellness, health, & your career, you’ll start off being the pacer, but wind up doing the pacing- falling to the cadence of others. Today’s TSL Post-it note: When you slow to someone else’s pace, you’ll fall to their results. Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ma...

I resist the urge to jump in when a young manager asks for help because the only way he’ll learn what to fix is by learning what to look for. Your growth is tied to your hands on experience. When you’re doing or seeing something new, don’t be so quick to ask for help. Sitting in the tension to figure it out will give you the experience to learn to “see” differently as well as tame the voices screa...

“You have to know form in order to break form...you have to know structure in order to break structure. Otherwise you’re just shortcutting.” ~Michael Gervais You want the quick results so you ask, “What can I get away with NOT doing & still get massive results?” The short answer? Nothing grand. An athlete makes an awkward shot. An entrepreneur pushes all of his chips in & hits big. A top p...

“Every next level of your life demands a new version of you.” Inky Johnson Why be so quick to pop off and show people where you came from? If you want to show them, let it be in distance, act in such a way that is so far removed from who you once were & how you once handled things to productively bring about a resolution. You can leap to new environments- new town, boo, or job, but if you have...

Not quite ready to start that blog, channel, page, or podcast? Working on the details- doing a little more research before launching that message? Want it perfect, right? It’ll suck. Even if you think it’s good, you’ll look back on it embarrassed & I hope you are, because that’ll prove to you just how far you’ve come. Got an idea? Execute. Period. 🔥Here’s your TSL Post-it Note for today: “A d...

Because average is the base camp of great. So you fell asleep at the wheel...your pants are tighter & your sales are lighter. I bet when I talk to you, you’re telling me how you used to look and live right? And you were soooo close, right? You almost had it going on like “them.” And now look at you. Everything you do is spoken in past tense & present failure which only affirms your mental...

In episode 517 we talked about the need for endurance, but let’s skip back to effort again because effort only once is a result, but if you reapply your skills with even more effort, you’ll = achievement. Today we work off of Angela Duckworth’s formula for massive achievement. Talent x Effort = Skill. Skill x Effort = Achievement. People who are less talented than you are doing better than you, no...

When comedian Steve Martin is asked his advice on how to be successful it’s pretty simple. “Be so good they can’t ignore you.” Today we’re riffing from @calnewport book “So good they can’t ignore you.” Adopt a “Craftsman’s Mindset” & stop playing against “tha man” & start molding your career. If you keep getting passed over or not even considered for perks or extras...it’s because you’re n...

New month, new goals, right? With renewed optimism THIS is gonna be your month. To achieve your goals it’s gonna take massive effort...we all know that. Effort = Reward. But what isn’t talked about is it’s gonna take endurance too. Endurance is the ability to stay in the tension for as long as you can, release, aNd quickly jump back in the tension, lengthening your emotional and physical rope. End...

Believe it or not, although he’s definitely had some way low’s, Mike Tyson said his rock bottom moment was when he became the Heavyweight Champion of the world. When he had no name, money, or belt he always wanted to train, but once he had it all, he didn’t want to train to defend it. If you find you’re starting to relax and lay up in your done’s...you need some more do’s. Text me or leave me a vo...

“I can’t take it anymore!” Said that a few thousand times? Yea, me too, when things aren’t working. It’s times like this that you have to remember you’re playing in the gap between “Fake it till I make it” & “Make it till I make it.” You’re playing in the “take it” gap & interpreting it wrong.
