Living in Your Circle of Control – Epi-3746 Oct 13, 2025

Show notes

So much is going on right now that the world feels like it is melting down in front of us. No matter what anyone says or does inflation is like a plague on society. Food is more expensive than anyone can remember. The political tribalism is at a fevered pitch with both sides in full denial of reality. The universities continue to churn out people with degrees that can’t actually do anything. Jobs are being eliminated with automation and outsourcing. We have war being normalized again, like it’s just another line item on the news scroll. The media keeps feeding … Continue reading →

Show notes

Today we dig into what I see as the four types of jobs, and why understanding them matters a hell of a lot more than most people think. Every job you’ve ever had, or ever will have, fits into one of these categories. I don’t care if you’re stocking shelves at midnight, closing seven-figure deals, or launching your own company. There’s a reason you’re doing it, and knowing that reason tells you whether you’re stuck, moving forward, or spinning your wheels. These four classes aren’t about ego, degrees, or corporate ladders. They’re about clarity. Class One jobs keep the lights … Continue reading →
