The post The Magic Behind Receiving appeared first on Insight Out.

She’s a thought-provoking and caring contrarian who asks provocative questions to challenge assumptions. She’s not afraid to stand up and ask why things are done in a certain way. Her belief…Just because something is common practice, doesn’t mean is it right!

She shares the story of why she started her consultancy practice after her two mentors passed away in the same year.

This led to an extremely successful journey in helping Fortune 500 companies examine their beliefs and practices held to see what should stay and what should go

As you’ll see Marcia’s catalyst for Strategic Change, Innovation, and Transformational Leadership.

Her approach is based on a theoretical foundation of management, not fads, and “best practices”!

You see why she thinks creating a Mission statement is a waste of time, how internal completion does more harm than good, and why she doesn’t believe the manager should focus on motivating their team members.

Instead, she suggests having a compelling purpose, fostering collaboration, and creating an environment where employees are self-motivated.

Marcia will turn what you think about leadership on its head!

Scott is high-energy, unfiltered, and full of insights he’s

gleaned throughout his life. Just as in his books, Scott is quick to use his

own missteps and tendencies as examples of what not to do when it comes to

leadership.

On the show, we learn how his boundless energy and ingenious

ideas have actually created unintended friction as they often take his team off

track and away from the top priorities.

He shares how he overcame this challenge, while also revealing

the importance of checking his ego as a leader. Scott also shares why he

views vulnerability as a leadership competency, tells us the reason he counts

on those close to him to give blunt feedback about how he’s being perceived,

and why he believes there’s a big difference between effectiveness vs

efficiency when it comes to relationships with his team members.

The post Becoming a Champion of Your Own Success with Donnie Boivin appeared first on Insight Out.

While treating patients with neurological disorders and traumatic brain injuries Dr. Reis became obsessed with understanding the connection between our physicality and our brain.

As a neuroscience specialist, he sees the brain as limitless and calls it the final frontier for exploration.

On the show, he shares his journey and we discuss how movement is the key factor in our mental health and wellbeing. He even goes as far as to say that movement is the language of the brain.

We discuss how we can train our brain to work for instead of against us by using its efficiency to our advantage.

He gives tips on how to optimize workplace productivity, talks about why “gut health” is so critical, and dispels some myths about how and why habits are created.

A big believer in the role fundamentals, Dr. Reis shares exactly why sleep, nutrition, and movement are key drivers to help us be less distracted, more productive, and happier at work and in life!

We discuss the principles of lean manufacturing, the brainchild of Toyota that has since become industry standard. Keith describes how he took to heart the core value of Kaizen, which means continuous improvement, when early in his career when he helped to make a process improvement when he was on front lines of the manufacturing floor.

He tells the story of his first day at Tesla before the factory even existed and how that experience stayed with him and helped to develop what he calls the blank page approach to problem-solving.

We learn the biggest insight he took from Elon Musk, why he believes done is better than perfect and what his boss means when he says “give me something to hate”

The post The Power of Continuous Improvement with Keith Champion appeared first on Insight Out.

Since 2012 he has helped thousands reach elite performance with his videos, courses, challenges, and coaching.

He believes:

Happiness is LIVING your passions

Freedom is the ability to CHOOSE what, when, how, and with whom

FULFILLMENT is combining all of the above…

8 years ago he had “everything” – a house, family, material things… but at the same time he felt stuck.

What he realized is he was living someone else’s life, which made him grumpy with the people who mean the most to him.

So he decided to take action and get clear on WHAT he wanted and WHO he was.

And most importantly, he found his WHY! He actually started living the life he wanted!

Since then, he’s been my MISSION to help others do the same

When I listened back to the recording of this episode, it truly inspired me.

We cover a lot, so here are just a few highlights:

• Why we should have “kid vision” when thinking about what is possible
• Why we avoid spending time on all the fluff by being more purposeful including tips on how to ensure this happens
• Ideas on how to improve our focus – doing more by doing less
• How to avoid fear of failure and success

The post Programming Our Mind and Thinking in Versions with Daniel Gray appeared first on Insight Out.

He’s an author, a speaker, a podcaster, and a teacher…his story is one of grit and determination.

There are 380,000 collegiate athletes, yet only 1% percent of them make it to a professional level.

Despite having success in college, Jed knew it would be challenging to make it as a pro.

But that didn’t stop him.

It wasn’t a smooth ride by any means, and he shares his story of getting cut over and over again before finally landing a starting role for the Super Bowl-defending New Orleans Saints.

Not only did he become a starter, he was even named to the Pro Bowl team.

Jed was part of what he calls the “Breakfast Club,” when he would be one of the first people in the locker room learning and understanding what it takes to be a peak performer.

A consistent theme for Jed is he was able to steal success from each of the organizations he was a part of. We get a first-row seat to hear the fascinating stories of how he learned from iconic athletes like Drew Brees.

After realizing that only 30% of retired NFL athletes walk away with their financial dream still intact, Jed decided to become a Certified Financial Planner during the off-season.

On the show, we cover a lot of ground, including why thoughts are things, the difference between external and internal success, why repetition matters, how to silence the voice of quit, and why we should focus on most vs now.

A the core of Jed’s philosophy is a belief that we must eliminate potential.

Jed has a winning mindset and shares how one-on-one basketball competitions with his brothers as a kid made an impact on his entire life. We also learned why he feels his greatest asset is his lifelong habit of journaling.

Marsha credits her love of storytelling to her late grandmother, whom she describes as unintentionally comedic. She regards her grandmother’s last years as her grandmother’s funniest years for her inadvertent mixing of fantasy and reality. Having been raised surrounded by stories, Marsha learned how to harness this talent and sought it out to achieve the power of persuasion, empathy, and connection.

In this episode, she walks us through what makes a good storyteller by coaching us on how to craft compelling stories and what our brain chemistry has to do with it. Marsha also explains how the universal catalyst for connection is stories, how to tell a great story, and the three essential parts to storytelling: voice over, montage, and action scenes.

She now runs Toronto’s biggest storytelling show, True Stories (Told Live), and offers workshops to help you improve your storytelling on her site Yes Yes Marsha. Through her passion for storytelling, she has accumulated features in BBC, Forbes, and Mashable.

The post How To Make Emotions Work For You Instead Of Against You – Justin Bariso appeared first on Insight Out.

Meet Marché Pleshette, Marché is a keynote speaker, facilitator, and leadership coach who has been at Franklin Covey as a consultant since 2008. She has taught many people how to infuse the philosophy of the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People into their life and business. She focuses on effective communication, leadership, professional change and transitions, employee engagement, and retention. She is the co-author of Franklin Covey’s newest book, Change: How to Turn Uncertainty into Opportunity.

Marché Pleshette was inspired to learn the competency of embracing change in order to innovate. She discovered that change is a process that requires support, understanding, and the ability to look around and see what is possible. She found that by understanding how to navigate change, leaders can help their team members to not be overwhelmed by it, but to use it as a tool to level up and become even more successful. With the right attitude, Marché realized that change can be embraced, rather than feared.

Now, let’s dive into the nitty gritty of change and how to use it to our advantage.

In this episode we cover: 

• How Judy Hendrix Influenced Marché to be a better facilitator, be a better presenter (00: 03:30)
• Why do we fear change and how can we learn to embrace change? (00:05:25)
• The three zones of change (00:09;20)
• How change has played such a pivotal role in how we’ve evolved (00:16:50)
• Why should we implement a paradox mentality into our everyday life and how? (00:20:20)
• How can leaders better understand and support people going through change? (00:21:38)

The post How to Lead Through Change with Marché Pleshette appeared first on Insight Out.

After self-reflection, what she realized is how she showed up in her professional career is also how she showed up in her personal life. This led her to investigate the balance between masculine and feminine energy.

In this episode, we talk about themes from her Ted X Talk and her book The Feminine Revolution in which she challenges the idea the femininity is weak and she encourages women to redefine and embrace their feminine qualities as a source of power. Historically, to compete in a ‘man’s world’, women have felt the need to exert more of their masculine energy like assertiveness and confidence.

Amy advocates for us to not exchange a feminine trait for a masculine trait but rather to use masculine traits to enhance our feminine traits.

David has spent his career researching and building a business on the art of communication and presentation, but his expertise goes beyond these practical skills that allow us to succeed in professional settings. He’s also dedicated to helping others apply these techniques on a personal level so that we can improve our relationships, exert control over our emotions, find our sense of happiness, and foster great empathy.

With his three widely-recognized TED Talks, “The Magical Science of Storytelling,” “How to Avoid Death by PowerPoint,” and “The 110 Techniques of Communication and Public Speaking,” he is reforming our understanding of communication and simultaneously eliminating antiquated notions about storytelling.

His journey is certainly one of dedication and perseverance, and as he discusses the scientific and psychological sides of expression and communication, the impact of his wife’s stroke, and how he rebuilt his company from nothing, you will walk away from this episode feeling both inspired and ready to tackle your day.

• Every war and every action of hatred stems from our desire to get the substances in our brain fulfilled. That’s where they come from. So yeah, if people would actually understand that they could create them by themselves without hurting and causing pain and destruction, the world would be a better place by far.” – David (20:55)
• “It is interesting how life’s moments that are so shakingly painful can also be so important and put in perspective the few moments that we have on this ball of rock flying through the sky. We sometimes take for granted that we’re given this life.” – Billy (31:15)
• “If you focus on performance, anxiety is its brother. If you focus on having fun, that is when you will be the best version of yourself… And in a state of having fun, we are relaxed. We get free access to our vocabulary, our thoughts…” – David (41:10)

The post LinkedIn Influencer Lorena Acosta on Standing Up for Your Core Values appeared first on Insight Out.

She said, “I’m Alessandra Torresani, and I am bipolar. Who wants

to talk?” It turns out, a lot of people did. This “talk” kick-started

her advocacy to normalize talking about mental health issues, and she has since

started her own podcast, called EmotionAL

Support, where she discusses mental health with her guests.

In this episode, we discuss:

– Alexandra’s childhood and her journey through misdiagnosis

– The importance that documenting both highs and lows has on

receiving an accurate diagnosis

– Alessandra’s work with NAMI, and the conference where she

shared her bipolar diagnosis

– How toxic positivity discourages people from talking about

their struggles

– Finding emotional support and comfort

– The difference between mental health and mental illness

– What we can do to help destigmatize the conversation around

mental health

According to Alessandra, it’s vital that we start talking about

mental health openly and encourage people to seek support and medical help when

they need it. This is the only way to foster an environment where every single

one of us can celebrate our individuality and uniqueness.

Kris also shared that her journey into the world of productivity was accelerated after her husband was diagnosed with colon cancer. When she returned from caring for him, she realized that many people she knew were working too many hours and not living the life they wanted. She set out to help them change that. Kris believes that delegating is a lateral move at best and that you should hire people who will manage you instead. She also believes in building systems and processes to support your team and make their jobs easier.

However, creating thought-provoking books isn’t his only talent. George has recently been hard at work on an NFT art project called People Reign.

In this episode, George shared his predictions for the future and his latest undertaking.

George talked about how his desire to help his daughter and his nephew navigate their futures led to the creation of his first book. He quickly came to the realization that his young relatives wouldn’t be experiencing the same world that he had been dealing with all his life. Their future looked different.

Determining what that entailed led him to create his second book.

George now believes that a technological tsunami is coming for all of us and the water is currently rising. Automation will make many jobs things of the past. But if we put our minds together and ask the right questions, we can ultimately choose what our future will look like.

In This Episode:

• [02:44] – George talks about his heart attack and what he learned from the experience.
• [05:25] – A letter to George’s teenage daughter becomes the book: Seize Your Destiny.
• [06:34] – What will reality look like 30 to 40 years from now?
• [08:42] – How do we give our children a better life?
• [11:10] – Using your mind to overcome obstacles.
• [16:12] – The value of different views.
• [18:30] – How to make sense of different perspectives.
• [37: 22] – What skills do we need to survive?
• [45:30] – The future of technology.
• [58:18] – The need for intelligent discussion.
• [1:04:30] – George discusses how his passion for art led him to create People Reign.

QUOTES

• [09:56] – “Embrace your ignorance. And the reason why is that learning begins with a recognition of ignorance. If we think we know all the answers, why bother to learn? Right. So the reality is: is that we don’t know all the answers.” – George J. Chanos

• [11:10] – “Frank Zappa. Your mind is like a parachute. It doesn’t work if it isn’t open.” – George J. Chanos

• [12:10] – “Your mind is a double-edged sword. It’s both your most powerful tool and your greatest liability.” – George J. Chanos

• [15:37] – “We should learn that our beliefs and our views have no privileged legitimacy. Just because I think it’s a certain way does not mean that’s the way it is…. Just because my brain is telling me that this is reality and this is what it is doesn’t mean I’m right.” – George J. Chanos

• [28:42] – “The more character you have, the more successful you are likely to be.” – George J. Chanos

• [1:01:10] -“What is more important than knowledge is intelligence….Knowledge is accessible to all of us…But you have to know what question to ask. That is not knowledge. That is intelligence.” – George J. Chanos

• [1:11:37] – “I believe it is important to speak out and to leave something behind.”- George J. Chanos

As we dive into how his hit idea Pod Decks came to fruition, media consumption, the pressure to create viral content, secrets to a great hook, and more, you’ll learn about his journey to his multitude of business endeavors, how he hopes to help fellow content creators, and get a peek into his own content creation process.

You don’t want to miss out on this opportunity to hear about how the man who lived and breathed podcasts broadened his business and his audience!

Let’s Meet Our Guest

Travis Brown is a social media content creator, keynote speaker, and Social Boom coach who believes in helping creatives, entrepreneurs, and business-minded individuals of the world reach their audience and their goals. While his own social media content focuses on business and income-inspired content (beginning with his unique tagline “Here’s a business idea – do something with it!”), his work for Social Boom centers on supporting and encouraging the rapid growth of anyone he seeks out his expertise.

Here’s What You’ll Learn

• How to manage your expectations and anxiety for your own creative output (3:30)
• Why testing your strategies before committing to them is important (9:50)
• Mindless scrolling vs. conscious consumption (17:00)
• How to do your research in this field and why it’s essential (42:10)
• Brown’s tips for crafting hooks and calls to action (45:08)
• His top two tools for content creation right now (57:23)
• Where you can find his content, a community of like-minded individuals, and resources for your own growth (1:00:18)

Travis Brown’s Thoughts on Content Creation & Research

Media Consumption:

1. Manage the habit (and comparison) by setting a timer before you scroll.
2. Pay attention to what’s working and what draws you in. Use this time to research!

Creating Content:

1. Let go of the expectation that your content needs to always succeed or go viral. Manage your anxiety about the pressure so you can create freely!
2. Do your research by paying attention to popular content, hooks, etc.
3. Define your outcome. What are people going to get from consuming your content?
4. Test your ideas to see what works and what doesn’t.
5. Once you find what works, stick with it! Your hook should remain constant, and keep your content within your niche.

Crafting a Hook:

1. Your hook can play on people’s fear of missing out, be a listicle, or even work to relate to your audience.
2. Whichever you choose, you want to draw them in with a big statement that requires a reveal.
3. After your big statement, offer your audience that instant gratification with an answer! If you wait around to reveal, you risk losing their attention.

How to Research on TikTok:

1. Open TikTok and filter by content made in the last three months and “most liked” content. This will show you what’s working RIGHT NOW.
2. Look around and pay attention to hooks, video formatting, graphics, etc.
3. Let this inspire you and fuel the success of your own content!

The post How Travis Brown Gained 90K Instagram Followers in 6 Weeks! appeared first on Insight Out.

In this episode, Brendan joins me to talk about what it takes to make content go viral. Brendan discusses how the world of content creation has changed in the last 20 years and how this change has impacted the way that we communicate. He also talks about how the algorithms that control the reach and distribution of our content are only concerned with retention, and how this impacts the way we should be creating content. Brendan provides examples of how this principle has played out in the success of some of his clients, including Ryan Serhant and Graham Stefan.

In this episode, you will learn the following:

•  What is the biggest mistake content creators are making that prevents them from rising above the noise?
• What are the best content creators doing to keep the attention then we’ll talk about getting attention.

In This Episode:

[00:02:38] – Biggest mistakes content creators are making.

[00:07:52] – Example of how niche videos can go viral.

[00:11:49] – What do the best content creators do to keep attention?

[00:12:39] – Tension and release.

[00:15:13] – Physics and virality.

[00:17:25] – Research is so vital.

[00:17:54] – Understanding why things go viral.

[00:22:14] – Gold – level content commonalities.

[00:24:13] – Pacing and sound effects.

[00:25:07] – Effects on the viewer.

[00:28:58] – Creating content that matches your message.

[00:34:43] – Peaking curiosity and yourself.

[00:37:45] – What we got wrong about the algorithm.

[00:41:52] – Biggest social media lessons.

[00:44:07] – The importance of research.

Quote: ‘’One of the fundamental principles that have really changed in content and communication at scale is what we call the generalist approach of how do we make people care about our subject matter, our expertise if they know nothing about us, or maybe they had no interest in what we were talking about before. That is the key to virality. Because the truth is, we are the product of the algorithm. These platforms are not producing premium content to keep people on the platform’’

Frameworks

According to Ram, the four steps of design are:

1. Research. Gather information. Then,
2. Define. Group research and data and narrow it down to solve a specific problem. Next,
3. Conceptualize. Create a prototype. And finally,
4. Deliver. Distribute the design into the world.

Then gather feedback and repeat the steps.

How to Find a Mentor

A mentor should be an advisor, friend, and idol

The post How to Reverse Engineer a Desired Outcome through Design – Ram Castillo appeared first on Insight Out.

After learning about my guest through fellow podcaster and friend Dan Nestle, I became deeply curious about how and why influence matters in today’s world. Neal Schaffer is the author of Age of Influence and for the last decade has become a globally recognized leader in the social media and digital marketing space. Having written multiple books on social media and networking, Neal is a leading voice.

His successful podcast, Maximize Your Social Influence dives into all things social and digital.

In this episode, we talk about themes from his latest book that help to illustrate the enormous power of influencer marketing.

We learn why word of mouth is still the currency that is most valuable and why social media plays a critical role in inciting it!

He shares why being a celebrity is no longer the type of influencer brands need to find customers. He talks about the value of finding a community and how even micro-influencers play a critical role because of their relevance in specific areas.

We even explore how various regions around the world, like China and Japan, are at different places when it comes to embracing influencer marketing. This show, and his book, isn’t about what it takes to be an influencer, but rather provides insights about and to embrace the voice of influencer to enhance your brand.

The post The Common Traits of Millionaires – Jim Britt appeared first on Insight Out.

That’s the focus of Scott Miller’s new book, “Master Mentors Vol. 2.” It examines key insights from 30 of the world’s most transformational leadership thinkers – including Seth Godin, Susan Cain, General Stanley McChrystal and more – and provides simple steps to implement the same insights in your own life.

In today’s episode, Scott joins me to talk about the most valuable lessons he’s learned from his own mentor, the concept of transformational insight, the subtle nuances between self-worth, self-esteem and self-confidence, why vulnerability is a key element of leadership, and more.

“I think the power of transformation has the power for you to see yourself differently. It has the power for you to challenge your paradigm, your mindset, your belief system, to say, gosh, I always thought about gratitude in this way, but now I’m gonna think about gratitude in this way. Or I thought about what’s next for me or my business model. They’re personal and professional. I think it’s really intended to help kind of shake you to say you’ve been in this pattern of thinking this line of behavior and just shaking a little bit to say, is that serving you well? Is that serving those around you?” – Scott (06:03)

Top 3 Takeaways 

• A mentor can be anyone. “I don’t think you have to know or be in an intimate relationship, professional relationship with your mentor at all,” Scott says. It doesn’t matter that you can’t meet with them for one-on-one guidance; a mentor is anyone who helps you understand how to improve your life, and in the age of podcasts and YouTube, you can get that wisdom in a variety of ways. 
• Try to assume positive intent. Everybody makes mistakes, and sometimes even the most well-intended words come out wrong. A person’s words say more about them than they do about you.
• Self-worth is inherent and unchanging. “Self-esteem and your self-confidence ebbs and flows based on your sense of self and the kind of relationships you’re in and the things that you do that you value or don’t value,” Scott says. “But your self-worth cannot be changed and no one else can change it.”

In This Episode

• (01:13) Why you don’t need to meet your mentor to benefit from their wisdom
• (05:21) Scott’s definition of a transformational insight
• (07:14) The practical applications of insights, and using them to transform your life

Entrepreneur…

Director…

Teacher…

All of these words can describe my guest today, but

“teacher” is the one he says is the best fit at this point in his

life. Chris Do is an Emmy award-winning designer, director, CEO &

Chief Strategist of Blind, a brand strategy design consultancy, and the founder

of The Futur—an online education platform with the BIG mission of teaching 1

billion people how to make a living doing what they love…without losing their

soul in the process.

Over the years Chris has developed legions of followers across

social media platforms, and for good reason. He’s not afraid to speak his

mind, even when it may not be popular.

In this interview, we talk about how being a middle child to

immigrant parents played an influential role in who he has become.

He shares his insights about failure and rejection, and how his

life would be different without them.

And we talk about how he’s been able to help his company survive

through all the changes we’ve seen in the digital world.

The post Business Survival Skills During Change – Chris Do appeared first on Insight Out.

One of my favorite episodes of Insight Out is my conversation with John Espirian. During that interview, he mentioned his mentor was a guy named Mark Schaefer.

Since I respect John so much, I decided to read Mark’s book Known, and invite him on the show. Fortunately for me (and you)…he said yes. This episode is our conversation.

Mark is a globally-recognized blogger, speaker, and author of seven best-selling books:

·        Social Media Explained

·        Return On Influence

·        Born to Blog

·        The Content Code

·        The Tao of Twitter

·        KNOWN: The Handbook for Building and Unleashing Your Personal Brand in the Digital Age,

·        Marketing Rebellion: The Most Human Company Wins

He is the co-host of The Marketing Companion, one of the top 10 marketing podcasts on Apple Podcasts.

He is in the Top 10 of the most re-tweeted marketing authorities in the world and was listed as one of the Top 10 authorities on Social Selling by Forbes.

He is among the world’s most recognized social media authorities and has been a keynote speaker at some of the most prominent conferences in the world.

Needless to say, his work has landed pretty much every noteworthy publication including the Wall Street Journal, Wired, The New York Times, CNN, and The Harvard Business Review.

It is an honor to have Mark on Insight Out, as we explore the themes from his book Known that will help you on your path to becoming an authority in your space through personal branding, content, and an ability to stand out in a noisy world. This was a fascinating conversation and even explores some emerging trends like nostalgia marketing and synthetic influencers that may just blow you away.

With over 40 appearances on Dr. Phil, his New York Times best-selling book Best Self, and his just rebased book One Decision, Coach Mike brings emotion and authenticity you rarely see. Yes, authenticity is a buzzword these days, but Mike has made his life’s work to help people find their true self…or more precisely, their best-self.

And today he shares how he found his best self by helping others find theirs. He vulnerably shares what it was like to grow up not able to be himself which led to drug addiction as a young man.

We learn how this paved the way for him becoming sober, then having a career as a counselor and interventionist, and even helping celebrities and pop stars navigate rocky relationships.

He shares insights from his books and approach to coaching that will help anyone who wants to gain clarity on purpose and how to live the life you’re meant to live…I’m excited for this one, so let’s jump into the conversation.

They explore the themes he outlined in this insightful book, in addition to Bob’s primary framework: the Five Principles of Influence. If you’ve ever wanted to have more influence without resorting to manipulation, this conversation will guide you in the right direction.

Bob Burg shares how a subtle shift in focus is not only a more uplifting and fulfilling way of conducting business but the most financially profitable way, as well. For 30 years, he’s helped companies, sales leaders, and their teams communicate their value more effectively, sell at higher prices with less resistance, and grow their businesses based on Endless Referrals.

Bob has regularly addressed audiences ranging in size from 50 to 16,000 — sharing the platform with notables including today’s top thought leaders, broadcast personalities, Olympic athletes, and political leaders, including a former United States President.

Although he was best known for his book Endless Referrals for years, it’s his business parable, The Go-Giver (coauthored with John David Mann), that’s captured the imagination of his readers.

The Go-Giver, a Wall Street Journal and BusinessWeek Bestseller, makes up over a million of Bob’s 2 million total book sales. Since its release, it has consistently stayed in the Top 25 on Porchlight’s (formerly 800-CEO-READ) Business Book Bestsellers List. The book has been translated into 30 languages. It was rated #10 on Inc. Magazine’s list of the Most Motivational Books Ever Written and HubSpot’s 20 Most Highly-Rated Sales Books of All Time.

Tune in to hear Billy talk with Bob, who’s been named one of the 30 Most Influential Leaders by The American Management Association, and named one of the Top 200 Most Influential Authors in the World by Richtopia.

What we discussed with Bob:

• [01:53] – About Bob’s dad Mike Burg
• [02:53] – What ultimate influence means to Bob
• [04:25] – Who is a genuine influencer
• [07:16] – The life lesson he learned from his cat, Liberty
• [10:40] – Basic principle of human nature
• [13:12] – How he developed his ideas and thoughts
• [17:43] – The relationship between self-control and character of a person
• [19:23] – What can we do to control our emotions?
• [23:30] – Why are clashes of beliefs so critical to an influencer?
• [26:25] – Setting the proper frame to get desired results

Valuable Insights by Bob:

• Influence is the ability to move a person to the desired action.
• Great influencers don’t try to push their ideas to others.
• Great influencers attract people.
• If we want people to take action to go towards the desired outcome, it has to align with what they want. Their values and their goals have to align.
• As human beings, one of the driving forces within us is freedom, making decisions for our lives.
• Only when you’re the boss of yourself, then you’re in the position to take a potentially negative situation and turn it into a win.
• Make sure that you’re the master of your emotions as opposed to your emotions being your master.

Notable Quotes:

[02:14] – “Tact is the language of strength.”

[05:15] – “People do things for their reasons, not our reasons.”

[15:54] – “By all means take your emotions along for the ride but make sure

you’re driving the car.”

[17:02] – “Self-control is the very essence of the character.”

The post Bob Burg (author of The Go-Giver) – How to Master the Art of Ultimate Influence (Encore Episode) appeared first on Insight Out.

Entrepreneur Alex Hormozi learned a lot of lessons on his way to making $100 million in sales – and now he helps other business owners figure out how to do the same. 

In this week’s episode, we explore the top takeaways from Alex’s success. Brenden talks about how his path first crossed Alex’s, shares his experience in a recent collaboration and explores why haters may be a good benchmark of progress. 

“If you wanna help 10,000 people, you get used to the idea that four or five hundred people are gonna hate your guts for no reason other than you being you. Because remember, nobody is booing nobodies. So if you’re somebody, it means people are gonna start booing you.” – Brenden (03:39)

We also analyze some of the key insights Brenden learned from Alex’s rise to the top, and talk about the simple three-pronged approach to success that built Alex’s brand into an empire.

“That’s the key – when we start to bring emotion into our business, that’s when we start to lose. What Alex has found is the people who are successful, the people who make it to the end are often the people who are willing to do the boring work long enough.” – Brenden (26:36)

3 Things Everyone Should Know About Success

• Practice what you preach. Many of us need to be reminded more than we need to be taught. In other words, we often already understand what we need to do – we just need to make sure we actually do it. 
• Narrow your focus. Most of the world’s most successful people prioritized one or two things until they built a following, a brand, an empire. Instead of splitting our efforts between multiple goals, we should focus 100% of our energy in one area. 
• Don’t wish for success – wish for the skill necessary to be successful. The idea of the burning wish comes from a popular card game where one character wished for a weapon, but not the power to wield it. Wishing for success doesn’t make us successful – get out there and start doing, and success will follow.
