On this episode, I weigh in on the recent string of people being exposed as scammers publicly. I've seen a pile of people just over the last week drag themselves and others through the mud based on their past decisions, coming to light. I'd like to extend a small piece of advice to you all...

You know right from wrong and when you pause right before making that decision, please remember that what happens in the dark eventually always be brought into the light. If you're willing to live in a glass house and be honest, transparent and ethical in all of your dealings, you will succeed slower, but you will build on top of a foundation that is stable till the end of time. Want more tactical tips and less woo-woo advice?

As human beings, generally speaking, we are pretty much lazy as shit. It takes a lot of effort to constantly fight the urge and push for the proper stimulus that you need for growth - but it's absolutely vital if you're serious about accomplishing things in whatever area of your life. I stumbled upon one of the more entertaining Internet, beefs involving the "science based " lifting community and the grizzled veterans that are just promoting common sense, lifting advice and actually talking about growing and have the results to back it up. It's definitely made me reflect back on how this concept has been playing out in my life, my business, my fitness journey, etc..

The funniest thing about this entire situation is that the people offering them advice the loudest and most confidently are the ones who quite literally have absolutely nothing to show for the results that they're promoting. Maybe tomorrow's episode is gonna touch on shutting the fuck up until you have actual results.

In every deal there's more than one component - Price... everyone seems to focus on Price and they tend to forget all the other pieces that are involved in every single deal that you make. Relationship capital, trust., guarantees, delivery methods, and timelines, etc all factor into whether or not they offer is attractive or not. People are not out here, solely focused on price despite your aggressive belief that that is the case. You probably have clients who are literally in business with you almost solely because they like you ( as strange as that may sound...).

I recommendation is to figure out how you can extract the hidden value and offer up more value in every deal that you make by beginning to actually recognize what is going on in the deal.

As a result of a meeting that I did the other day with my friend Darren Shaw, I decided to completely revamp my desk set up. This has gone in lockstep with a lot of the recent changes I've been making as well digitally to get things organized so that I can be more productive. Check out Facebook if you wanna see some photos of the new desk set up and if you have questions on anything feel free to ask how I've configured any of it if you're interested in setting up a small studio space for yourself as well.
