135 - The Decision to Fly Private Jan 29, 2018

Show notes

Social media has been very good for the private jet industry. Spend a few minutes on Facebook and you will encounter a lot of people flying in private jets. Speakers, authors, thought leaders And CEOs are flying private in record numbers. This is a decision that Cadey and I have been talking about for years. We have set an internal goal for our company, and once we get it, we are going to start flying private a lot of the time. I recorded this podcast to share with you how much has gone into making this decision, before you make it for yourself.

134 - Congruency Creates Success with Isla Brook Jan 27, 2018

Show notes

When I was younger, I read hundreds of personal development books. If you could send them all up with one thing, it would be… If you want massive success in your life, create congruency and alignment and everything around you will start moving fast. The problem I had when I was younger is that while many books share the concept of congruency, very few shared tactics. This became an obsession of mine. What are the tactics that will help create congruency and alignment for entrepreneurs 100% of the time? I didn't focus on everyone, instead I focused exclusively on the Entrepreneurial Personality Type. I asked the question over and over again "how can evolutionary hunters like us create massive congruency and momentum?" The result was a holistic approach to working with entrepreneurs. I realized that when we focus on improving our lives in all areas, congruency starts to create itself. In this short message I received from a client of ours, Isla Books, she eloquently and clearly described what it feels like when you achieve congruency and momentum that comes with it. I'm sure you will be as inspired by her as I am.

133 - Vulnerability with Your Team Creates Momentum Jan 26, 2018

Show notes

Over 90% of entrepreneurs never build a team. There is a reason..

Asking for help is one of the hardest things for people like us to do. We have all been on a team, or tried to do the project with other people that failed because no one would work as hard as we did.

Everyone of us has asked for help and then been let down. Some of us, myself included, have had a hard time understanding how to even access help growing up. All of this leads to difficulty in building a team, and becoming a transformational leader. Once we understand this difficulty and realize that if we are vulnerable with our team, they can actually help us when we need it the most and everything gets easier.

132 - The Hidden Cost of Debt Jan 25, 2018

Show notes

Albert Einstein said compound interest is the most powerful force in the universe. It either works for you or against you, and far too many entrepreneurs have it working against them. There is a psychic energy to debt and an affect on our ability to think clearly, make rational decisions, and create our future. We have no idea how deeply and dramatically it is affecting us until we are out of it.

Far too many entrepreneurs think that it's working for them when in reality, it can cause more pressure and noise than just about anything else.

If you are ready to show up in a different way, have a new level of confidence in the world, and know what you are really capable of, eliminate your debt and everything will change.

132 - Why Water? Jan 24, 2018

Show notes

Evolutionary hunters are physiologically sensitive momentum based beings and we are highly sensitive to constraint. This is the reason that I always start any coaching relationship with a conversation about water. Water is the ultimate performance enhancer because it doesn't matter what you eat, what supplements you take, or how well you take care of yourself, if you aren't hydrated you aren't optimized. Even if you have tried to drink more water and have found it difficult, once you reawaken your Natural Thirst, you will drink more water than you ever thought possible.

131 - Don't Tell People Their Job is Easy Jan 23, 2018

Show notes

When you tell someone that their job is easy, you invalidate their contribution before they even get started. A couple years ago we were in a partnership with someone who consistently and constantly told everyone on our team that what they were doing was easy. He would say crazy things like,"we need this entire website updated in the next two weeks but if we all pulled together and put in some extra effort it should be easy." Everyone listening to him knew it wouldn't be easy but everyone listening was also afraid to contradict him. Instead the team did their best to deliver and he was always disappointed. The problem was so dramatic that we decided to stop working with him. I don't know how to grow a company without a team, and every person in my organization makes a valuable contribution. I also do not believe that anyone's job is "easy". In fact a lot of the people that work for me do things that I can't and wouldn't know how to do. Instead of invalidating your teams contributions, make certain that everyone knows that what they are doing to grow your business matters.

130 - Build Deep Processes Jan 22, 2018

Show notes

A business is nothing more than a series of processes that are repeated overtime to generate a consistent results. It seems pretty simple, so why is running a business so difficult? There is a reason why over 90% of businesses in the United States are sole proprietorships. Very few business owners ever build processes that are clear enough for them to get help. By building processes, on paper first, outside of any system, you are building the foundational value of your company. Not only that but you're actually making it easier for you to run. When you have the checklist or process document someone his been using for a function in your organization and that person leaves, you can quickly replace them. This will build a new sense of security and safety for you in your organization. You will need it, because when you build a deeper process, your company will grow much faster and it is much more likely that you will be promoting people rather than having them leave.

129 - Should I Work With my Spouse? Jan 20, 2018

Show notes

Multiple times a week I get asked the question "should I work with my spouse?" I believe that working with your spouse, given the right process and environment, is one of the biggest accelerators to entrepreneurial growth. Working with your spouse is one of the greatest privileges an entrepreneur can have. We get to plan together, achieve together, and change the world together. When done correctly, there is very little that is as amazing as working with your spouse and growing an empire together.

128 - Build Your Momentum Bubble Jan 19, 2018

Show notes

There is an infinite number of things you can be exposed to on a daily basis.

You could watch the news, read a newspaper, pick up a political magazine, and so much more. Are any of those giving you momentum?

I encourage every entrepreneur I work with to build a bubble around them that insulates them from anything that will distract from momentum. The people places and things in our lives are either giving us momentum or they are taking it away. There is no in between.

When we become radically selfish and isolate ourselves from what takes away our momentum, we create the level of focus necessary to change the world.

If you are ready more for more momentum than you ever thought possible, build your momentum bubble.

127 - What Explosive Growth Feels Like with Leila Hormozi Jan 18, 2018

Show notes

Every entrepreneur dreams of running a company that grows fast. Not just a normal fast, but explosively fast. As fast as we want to make our contribution, as fast as we want to make a difference, and as fast as we want to make an impact. Very few entrepreneurs ever get to experience this dynamic. Most know they can do more, contribute more, and make more happen but they can't get everything to come together so the growth happens all at once. Entrepreneurs who are able to pull this off are rare. Alex and Leila Hormozi are the exception. Between July to November 2017, they have grown their team from 3 to over 20 and their revenue from a couple million dollars a year, to over $1 million dollars a month! This interview with Leila will give you insight as to how you can make this happen in your company.
