Now, let's dive into today's episode...

This episode shows you the importance of red teaming and how testing your assumptions can lead to greater success.

Bryce G. Hoffman is an author, speaker, consultant, and strategic advisor who believes that individuals have the power to transform companies and cultures with the right processes.

Hoffman wrote the bestselling book American Icon: Alan Mulally and the Fight to Save Ford Motor Company, which has become a manual for leaders who want to transform their companies. His latest book, Red Teaming: How Your Business Can Conquer the Competition by Challenging Everything, was just published by Crown Business in the United States and Little, Brown and Company in the United Kingdom.

Podcast Highlights

Who is Bryce Hoffman?

Bryce is a former journalist that witnessed many booms and busts and learned how businesses succeed or fail in the process.

After writing American Icon, Bryce began getting asked to present and implement many of the ideas in the book in other businesses. This lead to consulting and Bryce’s second book Red Teaming.

Don’t take your success for granted. You have to take great leaps forward to keep success going.

How Does Red Teaming Impact Business?

Bryce was looking for a system that businesses can use to challenge their systems. Red teaming is the cure for institutional complacency.

Success is a poor teacher. Everybody needs a system that challenges their assumptions and strategies.

Red teaming can also be used to identify businesses that are vulnerable to being disrupted.

Your Competitor’s Customers Are An Opportunity

How Much Work Is It To Apply Red Teaming?

To get the full benefit of Red Teaming, you need a separate set of eyes to look at your plans.

Inside Versus Outside Red Teams
Red Teaming Your Foregone Conclusions

How many areas of your life could benefit from reevaluating your assumptions?

Reference:

Bryce Hoffman, American Icon: Alan Mulally and the Fight to Save Ford Motor Company

Bryce Hoffman, Red Teaming: How Your Business Can Conquer the Competition by Challenging Everything

Bryce’s Takeaway

Just ask “why?”. Why is one of the most powerful words in the English language, there is no danger to asking why.

Just because you’re Red Teaming your plan doesn’t mean that there is anything wrong with your plan, but you won’t know that until you subject it to stress testing and scrutiny.

From 2007 to 2014, she was an acute care nurse practitioner in the medical intensive care unit of a large hospital. She provided training in bedside ultrasound, served as a mentor for nurse practitioner in training and conducted many aspects of critical care.

Podcast Highlights

Who is Eliza Bacot?

Eliza grew up in the South and learned early on she had a love for the human body, which lead her down the path of pursuing medicine.

Modern medicine isn’t really focused on optimizing the human body, it’s more about treating disease.

After becoming an entrepreneur, Eliza realized that as a group, entrepreneurs can’t create good ideas or be creative if they are putting poor food into their bodies.

Finding The Courage

When something is inspiring to you, you have to share with others.

To have courage means facing your fear.

Don’t be the person who dies with regrets…if something is calling you, take action. There are no barriers.

Emotional Wellness

Your inner negative voice can destroy you.

Imagine all the people you will not impact, if you do not take action.

What Does Wellness Really Mean?

Ignoring the signs your body is giving you, is a sure path to inflammation and pain.

How Do We Make Changes?

Take small steps and start with one thing.

Without your health you won’t be able to enjoy the fruits of your labour.

What Is A Wellness Community?

A wellness community is consciously designed for social connection.

What Is Are Five Things Entrepreneurs Can Do Today?

If you knew that changing your food program could double your business, over the course of the year, would you do it?

You must look at the impact your eating habits have on your business…it will change your perspective.

Eliza’s Takeaway

Go to the person you trust the most…the one that builds you up, and ask them “how do you see me?” Write the answer down, and look at it every day.

The thing that drives us is not money or fame, it’s purpose. If you get your mindset right in the beginning, nothing can stop you.

Now, let's dive into today's episode...

This is an intriguing story of wealth, scandal, and redemption.

Joe Gagliano is a former member of the New Orleans Mafia, and architect of one of the biggest sports point-shaving scandals in American history - the subject of his new book, No Grey Areas: The Inside Story of the Largest Point Shaving Scandal in History and the Consequences Thereafter.

At the age of 24, Gagliano quarterbacked the ASU basketball point-shaving scandal, still one of the largest scams in sports history. Not only did he outsmart the sports betting world, as an entrepreneur Joe managed to create a number of legitimate and highly successful businesses.

Podcast Highlights:

Who is Joe Gagliano?

Now a family man, and resurrected entrepreneur, Joe is the son of a cop and two-time felon.

Joe Gagliano then and now; living by default vs. conscious choice and direction

The dark side of gambling; the impact on career, relationships, and overall happiness

Investing vs. gambling

Transferrable skill sets

Is it possible to learn how to run a business from a felon?

Living in the Grey-Area

Many of the skill sets required to operate in the grey-area of law are very effective in managing a business. “Applying those skills, in the proper channels, can lead to great success.”

Joe’s Takeaway

Being one-degree off center, at an early age, may lead you astray years down the road.

“It takes twenty-years to build a reputation, and five-minutes to ruin it.” ~ Warren Buffet

CFD 404 [REPLAY 239] - 8 THINGS TO GIVE UP - Criticizing Others Says More About You Than You Think… and It’s Gotta Stop! Aug 24, 2017

Now, let's dive into today's episode...

We are into another new year now and I hope you’re off to a great start. That’s why I’m doing this 8 THINGS TO GIVE UP series in my Cash Flow Diary podcast. So far I’ve covered three of the things you need to toss out the window. Go back and listen to those episodes if you haven’t already.

Today I share with you why you don’t want to put your time into criticizing others. Criticism just leaves you looking (and feeling) harsh, vindictive and cruel. Criticizing others may make you feel superior to others, but in reality that’s not the truth. How in the heck does that serve you, especially as a real estate investor? It doesn’t.

Real estate investing (and most other businesses) require you to build relationships. How are you going to do that if you are hyper-critical?

Let’s take the example of a property. You’re walking the property and you are there to assess it so you can make an offer and figure out how you can help the seller. If you walk around with a superior attitude, tearing the property apart with your words, I promise you’ll have a real hard time getting that seller to want to work with you.

You are setting up an adversarial relationship and it’s going to leave the seller feeling bruised and upset. You may as well pick up a heavy stick and follow the seller around while poking them with it. That’s how your criticisms feel to the other party. It is horrible and unnecessary.

When someone is receiving criticism, it puts them in a defensive position. That sets up sour ground for negotiations. The seller will push back with their own criticisms. Both of you will walk away feeling bad about each other and the property.

Have you ever heard that old saying that you catch more bees with honey? It’s true. You don’t have to embellish; you simply have to learn to communicate in a more positive way. You can say absolutely anything if you frame it correctly. If you form an actual connection with the other person, put yourself in their shoes, learn a little about their situations and challenges, and you stop putting yourself first your negotiations will go better. Your business will do better. Your income will improve.

As a real estate investor you are supposed to be solving problems for other people. You are alleviating pain. You don’t have to say every little thing that’s running through your brain. The seller knows the problems with the property. They want you to make an offer. They want to sell the property.

Here’s the bottom line: No one and nothing is perfect… not even you. So, if you are prone to being critical, you need to learn how to communicate better. A book that helped me is How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie.

And in researching the topic for this episode I found some really cool articles. There were several. Here’s just one: How To Stop Being Critical Of Others. It’s written by an NLP trainer and it’s pretty interesting. Read it. If you recognize any of the points in your own behavior it’s time to fix it… right now.

You might want to listen to this episode a few times, especially the end, because I give you the way to word the negatives in your negotiations. There is a way to say everything. Learn more. LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE NOW.

CFD 403 [REPLAY 238] - 8 THINGS TO GIVE UP - Get Used to Failure Events… Cuz That’s All They Are. Aug 21, 2017

Now, let's dive into today's episode...

As I continue with my “8 Things to Give Up” series today, I take you where you may not want to go. In this episode of my Cash Flow Diary podcast, I ask you to do something for me… for yourself… for your loved ones. Give up your fear of failure!

In fact, I’m asking you to look at failure in a whole new way. I want you to embrace it!

Any successful entrepreneur has had plenty of failure events, and that’s how you have to look at things when they don’t go as planned. They are not “failures” in the truest sense of the word. They’re just events in your life and your business that didn’t pan out as you expected.

So what? Now what? Next…

You have to learn to move past hold-ups, challenges, issues, problems and unexpected twists and turns. That’s part of life. None of us magically know how to do things the right way the first time. Everything takes practice… or do you think I suddenly and without hard work and PRACTICE became a successful real estate investor, coach, educator, author and speaker?

When I first started in real estate investing there were tons of things I didn’t know. If I had let the fear of failing at those things where would I be now? I didn’t exactly have a choice. My wife was very ill; I had no job; my kids were hungry. Regardless of how scared I may have been in the beginning I had to put those fears aside and take the necessary steps to get to my first goal, then my second, then my third and so on. I had to educate myself on those steps.

See, that’s the thing… It’s your reaction to your thoughts, feelings and emotions that you need to learn to control. Everyone has fears, but it’s our responses to our feelings that makes the difference between success and not being successful yet.

You must learn to calm your inner negative, doubtful, fearful chatter. That’s all it is. Chatter. Understand that you CAN do what you set out to do… because you aren’t the first person who has ever tried this new thing you are trying to do. Plenty of people have come before you, which means you have just as much chance as them to get to your goals.

In this episode I talk you through your fears and how to gain control over your emotional reactions. You’re gonna be just fine. Trust me on that one. Learn more. LISTEN NOW.

Now, let's dive into today's episode...

As a real estate investor, success comes to you once you understand whom you serve. So, let me ask you something… Are you serving anyone well (or at all) by allowing negative thoughts to intrude the corners of your mind and walk all over your goals? You’re certainly not doing yourself any good, and unless your intent is to attract negativity to your life, you need to stop negative thinking now. I MEAN RIGHT NOW.

That’s what this episode of my Cash Flow Diary podcast is all about. It’s the second in an eight-part series dedicated to the things you must stop doing immediately if not sooner to allow success to enter your life. (If you didn’t listen to part one, go back and do that now.)

The funny (or not-so-funny) thing is that we can all be big negative thinkers from time to time. (That means being our own worst enemy, too, by the way.) Truth is negative thinking kills. It kills opportunities… it kills relationships… it kills deals… it kills goals. So why participate in something that isn’t going to help you get further down the path in your journey?

Replace your negative thoughts with those of a more positive spin. If you’re prone to being negative, learn new ways to express yourself. Like Tony Robbins says, you can learn to replace words with negative connotations with those that bring more positive meaning. For example, instead of telling yourself (and others) that you are “nervous, scared, anxious or frightened” about learning something new and putting it to use, try replacing those words with “excited.” Just that minor difference makes a huge impact on how you feel about what you are doing.

Did you know negative thinking can make you sick? Yes, sir. There are reasons to take on a more positive outlook. It’s simply healthier all around… for everyone.

Think about your daily conversations with people. Who do you like to talk to? I’m betting it’s not the Negative Nellies and Debbie Downers who have a lot of negative thinking going on for themselves. It’s more likely that you are drawn to those confidant individuals who display positive thinking, communication and actions. You want to be around those who are moving forward with a smile, and who have good things to say about other people and the world. You get excited for them when they start talking about what they’re doing, because positivity attracts. Conversely, negativity repels. Big time!

I recorded this episode of my podcast because I want you to be your most uplifted, positive self. I want you to stop the negative self-talk and negative thinking all-around. For more reasons you want to stop your negative thinking, give this episode your ear. Then practice what you’ve learned here today! LISTEN NOW.

Now, let's dive into today's episode...

Focusing on your goals is something you have to train yourself to do. When you first get into real estate investing you start seeing opportunity everywhere. For example, real estate is literally everywhere you look.

When you stop at an intersection and you see buildings. That is real estate that is owned by someone who rents space out to others for a profit. You think maybe you’d like to own a building like that.

Maybe you spot a movie theatre. That’s real estate. Restaurants are real estate. Daycare centers are real estate. If you have a J.O.B. and work for someone else, guess what? That building is a piece of real estate. Literally everything has something to do with real estate. Someone is paying and someone is profiting.

Seeing opportunity everywhere is also a problem at first. When you see opportunity everywhere your brain can jump from shiny thing to shiny thing. You want houses; you want apartment buildings; you want commercial properties; you want a cell phone tower; you want a wind farm.

See what I mean? In the beginning you can get lost in all the opportunities. But part of the problem is that you don’t know what you want to focus on yet.

So how do you FOCUS (Follow One Course Until Successful)? That’s what this educational episode of the Cash Flow Diary podcast is all about!

To help you focus, you need to be a follower first. Why? Cuz it’s better to imitate before you innovate. Imitate someone who has been where you are standing now so you can develop clarity about what type of real estate investing you like most and do best. For example, it’s a good thing to start as a wholesaler. That’s what a lot of my students start with before adding to their skills and choosing the niche they want to focus on in real estate. Why? Cuz that’s how I started. They imitate, keep learning and then focus in on a niche.

That’s how it happens. Once you master the basics you can add to your knowledge base and take on different types of deals and bigger deals. I guarantee you’ll always be learning. It might surprise you, but I’m still learning. For example, while I’m focused on a particular deal, I’m learning that some of the things I thought would happen didn’t end up happening. So I adjusted my path and kept my focus. Now we’re getting close to the goal. I feel like cheering. If my team and I hadn’t kept our focus, we wouldn’t be getting this cool deal done.

See what you can learn about focusing on a singular outcome or objective from this episode of Cash Flow Dairy. You will want to jot things down, so get your pen and paper ready. LISTEN NOW.

Now, let's dive into today's episode...

What’s better than inspiring seasoned entrepreneurs? How about inspiring young entrepreneurs who are just now jumping into the entrepreneurial pool and really need guidance? YES! That’s what I love to do. That’s why I enjoyed presenting at the recorded live event in Irvine, Calif., from which this highly educational episode of the Cash Flow Diary podcast is taken.

I got to tell my story and talk about how I entered real estate investing, which was as a wholesaler. In fact, I still have my first property. It’s in California and I can drive to see it any time I want. I don’t, because the renter remains in place and there are no real problems to deal with. The property sort of runs itself, which is excellent. This first transaction was really important for me to do because it showed me that I could gain the skills to do more of this type of transaction. Long story short, I did over and over again. I did pretty well, too. I earned six figures my first year as a real estate investor!

That wasn’t all that long ago. In fact, that was 2008. Today I have more than 300 units of property across various states. I own a cell phone tower, and I have commercial deals under my belt. I’ve come a long way because I keep learning. Yes, even today.

When you listen to this episode you will hear why I had to learn how to use other people’s resources to keep moving my needle forward. One of the tools I learned to use is other people’s money. That’s just one thing you will learn from listening in on this recorded live event… no matter what age you are. Pay close attention to one of the ways I find clues about business and real estate so I can figure out how to earn more money as an investor. You’ll want to put into practice the things I teach in this episode! Learn more.

Now, let's dive into today's episode...

Each week, J. Massey answers viewers' questions in real time on his LIVE online Q & A with J show on www.cashflowdiary.TV. But this live Q & A is something a little different, because J. answers questions in front of a live audience in Phoenix during a special educational event where he was invited to teach investors about raising private capital and all sorts of topics in Real Estate Investing. This no-holds-barred Q & A opens investors' eyes across the room as J. seamlessly answers any and all of their questions. J. fields every type of investor issue the audience members and live-streamed viewers could throw at him. He rips deals apart, too. It's something you won't want to miss. You'll hear some pen-on-paper scribbling in the audio. That's J. writing out supportive points and doing the math on his big paper-and-easel set up! If you want to see what that looks like, be sure to join the next live Q & A with J... Tuesdays at 4 p.m., PST, on www.cashflowdiary.TV! For now, see what you can learn, because there are lots and lots of valuable nuggets of knowledge in this episode of Cash Flow Diary. Listen Now
