Getting passed over for a promotion or losing an account stains the soul. In these moments, you must remember not to act so negatively that it justifies their decision by saying, "That's why we didn't choose you." You may have lost in the season, but don't lose it for a lifetime. Today I'll show you how to take an honest assessment as to why someone didn't choose...

You know all about good habits, and you've felt the effects of bad habits, but rarely do you ever notice when a good habit turns bad until it's too late. That's because habits gradually build up or erode, and if left unchecked, you'll "all of the sudden" slip into complacency. "Always become. Never arrive," because the arrivals can wreck everything you'...

Being a G.O.A.T. isn't what's put on the wall, it's what you put into this world. Don't settle in the one and only life that you have. Here are 6 reasons why you need to be the "Greatest Of Your Time."  Play to the opportunity, not the current position.  Your future is uncertain.  Experience is necessary in order to relate to others.  Pay if forward by teaching others...

When you try to control everything, you end up hitting nothing. Some things are outside of your control. Try to steer a baseball after you throw it by leaning left and right-impossible, yet that’s what you do in your own life. Targets are necessary, but it’s what you become in the processes that you develop on the way to that target that is most important. This is why you have to be, “Easy to teac...

TSL let's gooo! Back on episode 665 I urged you to “Be an observer, not a predictor.” Change is happening so fast, it’s easier to hug up to the comfort of what you’ve always known and done than to step out into uncertainty, but everything is flipped upside down.  Taking risks is safe and playing it safe is now risky because taking risks creates way more opportunities than playing is safe ever...

If this is your first time here, I hope you’...

It's a pretty even divide between those who agree & disagree with the phrase, "How you do one thing is how you do all things." Is it true? Would you fold your clothes with the same intensity as giving a speech? Probably not, but there is some merit to the phrase. Today I'll show you why I believe, "How you do the smalls is how you do the alls."  Thanks for listeni...

If you're not in a slump right now, you're heading toward one. The slumps can jack you up.

You may not know the term, but you sure know the use. Diminishing language is using phrases like, "I could be wrong..." or "I was thinking that kinda, maybe we could...." When there is an imbalance of power or status, we pad our ask with a bunch of filler words. Diminishing language makes it confusing and easy to be interrupted & dismissed. Think of the difference in your l...

Catherine Brown is just a damn good human. She's the kind of person that brings a smile to your face every time you talk to her or read one of her posts. Today we'll talk a  little sales shop, but remember, sales is a parable to Life because it so closely resembles Life. One minute you're on top of the world, and the next minute the world is rolling back on top of you. In either cas...

Today's episode starts off with a clip from the scouting report of a player who was too slow; too skinny; and lacked the physicality and talent to play in the NFL. That player was Tom Brady. Like him or loathe him, he's arguably the best football player of his generation.  The clip buttonholes today's topic, "Nobody knows anything." It's Marc Randoph's favorite q...

NO is the most powerful two-letter word in the world. Chances are, when you hear the word NO; you associate it with rejection, failure, loser, defeat, stupid, and not good enough. So it's no wonder you avoid hearing the word at all costs. But going for YES is riskier than hearing the word NO because it causes you to become judgmental, selective, and only go for sure thing, and you rob yoursel...

Imagine your perception if you were serving a life sentence? Damon West, author of "The Change Agent: How a former QB sentenced to life in prison transformed his world," could've looked at his life sentence and accepted it, but today he is a free man traveling all over the world with thought leaders like Jon Gordon.  Instead of getting through the day, West got from the day through...

We use a term in the car business called "Load their lips." Because I can't teach a salesperson every possible scenario they may encounter when working with a customer; I'll "load their lips" with what to say and expect.  One of my favorite quotes from Seth Godin is, "People don't believe what you tell them. They barely believe what you show them. They often...

Have you ever had one of those days where you played like a rookie? Well, I had a whole week of it!  I made so many boneheaded mistakes. I signed customers up to the wrong bank; I used the wrong interest rates and even gave a customer a rebate that they didn't qualify for. In the world of finance, you can't use a magic eraser to fix your mistakes. (I wish) Of course, the voices in my hea...
