The Small Business Show

In this episode of Business Brain, you're challenged to stop waiting for perfect conditions and start before you feel ready. You don't need every system built or every detail nailed down to make an offer and move forward. You learn why perfection slows momentum, how action creates clarity, and why progress beats polish every time. This mindset shift helps you build confidence, traction, and revenue faster—without getting stuck preparing forever instead of doing. You also explore demand avoidance and the subtle danger of the comfort zone. When things feel easy or familiar, it might actually be a warning sign that you're not stretching far enough. You're reminded that simple tools and clear tracking can keep you honest, focused, and growing. By leaning into a little discomfort and embracing structure, you give yourself the best chance at building a business—and a Charmed Life—on your terms. 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs' Podcast #710 for Wednesday, December 17th, 2025 December 17th: National Maple Syrup Day 00:02:05 Start Before You're Ready I don't have an email list… but here's an offer and I'll eventually send you email.

Externalize structure without authority — Timers, body doubling, or parallel work beat accountability pressure. Use novelty or constraint — Change location, tools, order, or rules. 00:22:23 Business Brain 710 Outtro Tell Your Friends!

In this episode of Business Brain, you dive into the rising tension between innovation, trust, and responsibility in the world of AI. As Shannon and Dave unpack National Salesperson Day, they pivot into the challenge of working with tools that hold immense power but zero accountability. The conversation heats up as they explore the recent acquisition of Limitless and what it signals for the future of AI assistants that promise productivity without sacrificing your Charmed Life. You also hear why trusting your AI is becoming just as important as the tasks it performs. Apple enters the discussion as a fascinating paradox—highly trusted for privacy yet struggling to compete because that same privacy limits their AI's capabilities. By the time the outtro rolls in, you're left thinking critically about which companies deserve your trust and how to balance convenience with control in your business. 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs' Podcast #709 for Casual FridAI, December 12th, 2025 December 12th: National Salesperson Day 00:01:12 ChatGPT has no accountability 00:07:09 SPONSOR: Intuit QuickBooks Payroll – Take control with QuickBooks Payroll today at QuickBooks.com/payroll 00:08:26 SPONSOR: Shopify – For anyone to sell anywhere, sign up for a one-dollar-per month trial period at Shopify.com/BusinessBrain and upgrade your selling today! 00:10:03 Limitless being Acquired 00:16:25 Trusting your AI?

In this episode of Business Brain, you learn why belief has to show up before skill ever can. You're pushed to take action immediately—not by buying gear, courses, or tools, but by selling what you already have to get real-world wins fast. As you move, you build confidence, momentum, and the all-important belief that fuels every entrepreneurial step of your Charmed Life. Listener reviews highlight how authentic, actionable, and inspiring this mindset is, especially when paired with smart discussions about AI and real business challenges. You also dive into the big question: How long should you give a business idea before you pivot or pull the plug? The hosts break down a practical two-year model—one year to learn, one year to execute—and frame it all as an experiment rather than a lifelong commitment. This approach frees you to test ideas boldly, adapt quickly, and make decisions with clarity instead of emoti 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs' Podcast #708 for Wednesday, December 10th, 2025 00:01:00 December 10th: National Lager Day Wolf by Vanderpump in Lake Tahoe Trumer Pilsner 00:02:32 Belief Before Ability Take action right away For example: in the reselling business, don't buy anything first.

In this episode of Business Brain, you're reminded that the work itself is the reward—and that avoiding the arrival fallacy is key to building a Charmed Life. Shannon and Dave push you to reframe your mindset from have to to get to, reinforcing that shared effort fuels momentum. You'll see how celebrating your team—especially on Extraordinary Work Team Recognition Day—creates a culture where contribution feels meaningful and progress stays sustainable. Then you dive into the art of employing confident helpfulness. You're coached to stop bending over backward until clients walk all over you and to use clarity as your strongest service tool. Sometimes the most helpful thing you can do is tell someone that what they want isn't the process. You'll learn to choose a blunt-and-polite mindset—the one that says they're lucky to do business with you—so you protect your boundaries, elevate your value, and lead with intention. 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs' Podcast #706 for Thursday, December 4th, 2025 December 4th: Extraordinary Work Team Recognition Day 00:01:58 The work is the reward The arrival fallacy We GET to do this together! 00:11:21 SPONSOR: Intuit QuickBooks Payroll – Take control with QuickBooks Payroll today at QuickBooks.com/payroll 00:12:45 SPONSOR: Rula patients typically pay $15 per session when using insurance.
