Special Guest Steve Sims https://simsdistillery.com/   In this episode, host Karen Roberts chats with Steve Sims about the power of focus and mindset in achieving success. Steve underscores that your perspective shapes your reality. By concentrating on positive stories and opportunities, rather than negative news, you start noticing more chances for growth and innovation. This mindset shift, comparable to suddenly noticing yellow cars everywhere once you start looking for them, enables entrepreneurs and podcasters to thrive even amidst chaos, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic.   Steve highlights how many people saw COVID-19 as an opportunity to innovate, pivot their businesses, deepen family connections, and work on personal projects. Those who adapted and focused on possibilities found ways to prosper. For entrepreneurs, developing this mindset is crucial. Fear of rejection or failure is natural, but how you respond to it determines your success. Rather than letting fear paralyze you, using it as motivation to learn, grow, and push forward transforms these fears into strengths.   Building resilience is key. Practicing small interactions and gradually building confidence helps you handle rejection better. Each conversation, pitch, or attempt is an opportunity to learn and improve. The more you put yourself out there, the more you realize that a "no" is just a step towards the next "yes." Embracing a growth mindset, where challenges are seen as opportunities to learn, makes you more resilient and better positioned to seize new opportunities.   Steve also discusses the importance of curiosity and dissatisfaction with the status quo as driving forces for change. Physically stepping out of your usual environment can help you assess your happiness and areas of aggravation, which can be catalysts for change. Surrounding yourself with supportive and challenging people is vital. If your current circle doesn't understand or support your ambitions, it might be time to find a new group.   Steve shares an anecdote about a marketing strategy at Tabasco, where making the bottle's hole bigger significantly increased sales. This story illustrates the value of playful innovation over rigid effort. He emphasizes maintaining a playful, childlike approach to challenges, suggesting that "playing" with problems rather than fighting them leads to innovative solutions and sustained energy. Examples from notable figures like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Elon Musk demonstrate how gamifying challenges can lead to breakthroughs.   Effective communication is another crucial aspect discussed. Despite living in a highly connected world, true communication is deteriorating. Steve likens it to a muscle that needs regular exercise. Engaging in small conversations regularly can make you more comfortable with larger, more critical conversations. He shares a story about a Silicon Valley tycoon who practices handling rejection by asking for discounts on mundane things, thus becoming desensitized to hearing "no," which helps in high-stakes business situations.   The episode also touches on how COVID-19 was a time of great productivity and financial success for Steve because he focused on opportunities rather than obstacles. The pandemic revealed the illusory nature of job security, prompting many to reevaluate their careers. Steve offers tips for those feeling stuck: assess your dissatisfaction with your current situation from a new perspective; surround yourself with people who challenge and support your aspirations; recognize the value of time and act promptly on opportunities; and maintain a childlike curiosity and willingness to explore.   Throughout the conversation, Steve emphasizes the importance of taking immediate action towards your goals. He closes by inviting listeners to his event in London, a one-day intensive session on branding, marketing, and positioning to help disrupt and stand out in their respective fields. He also promotes his books, "Bluefishing: The Art of Making Things Happen" and "Go For Stupid: The Art of Achieving Ridiculous Goals," encouraging listeners to maintain youthful curiosity and take bold actions in their endeavors.   The episode concludes with Karen expressing gratitude for the engaging conversation and promoting Steve's resources. This episode is a compelling blend of personal anecdotes, practical advice, and motivational insights designed to help listeners cultivate a success-oriented mindset and take decisive action towards their goals.

PURCHASE "GO FOR STUPID" by Steve D. Sims HEREGO FOR STUPIDWHAT WOULD YOU ACHIEVE IF YOU WEREN'T AFRAID OF BEING LAUGHED AT?In the age of “gotcha” culture, people are terrified to do anything that might be laughed at. Steve Sims is the exact opposite.In Go For Stupid: The Art of Achieving Ridiculous Goals, Steve teaches you how to ignore what everyone else thinks and go for big, stupid, ridiculous goals. From organizing a private dinner in front of Michelangelo's David, to securing a tour of SpaceX led by Elon Musk himself, his accomplishments always start with the same questions: How far can I take this? What would make this a stupid achievement? Steve examines famously stupid goals in history, the key habits of successful people, and lessons from his own career to help you let go of your fear and get out of your own way.If you do something amazing, you will be ridiculed until you are revered. Stop overthinking and go for ridiculous, stupid goals. Once you “go for stupid,” you open the door to the life you always dreamed about.https://www.facebook.com/groups/stevedsims/https://twitter.com/stevedsimshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/stevedsims/https://www.instagram.com/stevedsims/https://www.youtube.com/stevedsims?themeRefresh=1https://www.tiktok.com/@stevedsimsAre you searching for graceful messages to soothe your weary soul? Are you craving gentle insights that whisk you beyond challenges and obstacles? Are you longing for someone pious to take you by the hand and lead you to enlightenment? If so…then please, do yourself an epic favor and stay the hell away from Steve Sims.Principles — without CompromiseIn a world loaded with self-described “motivational gurus” who are far, far more interested in your cash than they are in your consciousness, Steve refuses to compromise his principles, which include:Telling the truth the only way he knows how: directly, blatantly, fearlessly and with no holds barred.Delivering visionary insights that are deeply rooted in pragmatic reality and practical action: because it's all about results.Sharing everything he knows about being successful on a professional and personal level, right down to the last grizzly, intimate, “oh wow, did he really just say that?” detail.What You See IS What You GetMany speakers who claim to be “onions” – i.e. wrapped in mystical and magical layers of enigmatic meaning – have their metaphors mixed up, because they're typically nothing but smoke and mirrors; get too close, and it's all style and no substance.Steve ain't no onion.What you see IS what you get. And what you see and get is a man who you'd probably avoid making eye contact with in an alley — or anywhere else for that matter. After all, a shaved head, Harley Davidson garb and body piercings on a 5' 11”, 240 lb. frame don't scream “let's be friends!”But that's the irony of it all, because despite his gruff exterior, Steve is remarkably open, engaging, generous, intuitive, insightful and competent – and he's leveraged all of this to build a remarkably successful entrepreneurial career. ARE YOU READY?Full disclosure: not everyone is ready for Steve, and he'll be the first to tell you that he's not interested in being all things to all audiences. If you're looking for feel-good rhetoric, generic clichés and platitudes, or typical self-help advice tied together in a diplomatic package and topped with a pretty bow – then “go ahead and move along.”But…If you want to have your professional and personal life transformed by one of the world's most unique over-achievers — a person who cares so deeply about your success that he's willing to lay everything on the line to help you: the good, the bad, and so very, very ugly — then you're ready.So grab a helmet, get on board, say a prayer, and hang on with all you've got — because you're in for the ride of your life!

Goal setting in business. Long time friend of this podcast Steve Sims, AKA the man that can, whose clients include Elton, Elon and Sir Richard, has one piece of proven advice for all of us … Go for stupid. Ignore it and you and your business is destined for a life of mediocrity. Listen to it, and you just may achieve the ridiculous! It's a strategically stupid episode 650 of The (14 year-old, award-winning) Small Business Big Marketing podcast. A little more about Go For Stupid author Steve Sims ... Steve Sims is the visionary founder of the world's first luxury concierge that delivers the highest level of personalised travel, transportation, and cutting-edge entertainment services to corporate executives, celebrities, professional athletes, and other discerning individuals interested in living life to its fullest. He is also author of a fantastic book on how and why to set ridiculous goals, aptly titled Go For Stupid: The Art of Achieving Ridiculous Goals. Previous interviews with Steve Sims: A simple referral marketing technique | 236 How to get Elton John as a client | 452 Steve teaches you how to ignore what everyone else thinks and go for big, stupid, ridiculous goals. From organising a private dinner in front of Michaelangelo's David to securing a tour of SpaceX led by Elon Musk himself, his accomplishments always start with the same questions: How far can I take this? What would make this a stupid achievement? You'll also discover: How to get out of your own way The right questions to ask when starting a new project The habits of highly successful people Plus Steve describes his Speakeasies that have had him take paying clients into the world's most famous brothel and a level 4 high security prison. Oh, and one last thing. Despite Steve's pommy accent and a network of people any of us would kill for, he looks like he's just stepped off a Harley and is ready to rumble! I started off by asking Steve why he loves to be laughed at!   Businesses that make this podcast possible eBusiness Institute - Watch eBusiness Institute's free 90-minute Masterclass on how and why to buy, renovate & sell content websites.

In the age of “gotcha” culture, people are terrified to do anything that might be laughed at. Steve Sims is the exact opposite. In Go For Stupid: The Art of Achieving Ridiculous Goals, Steve teaches you how to ignore what everyone else thinks and go for big, stupid, ridiculous goals. From organizing a private dinner in front of Michelangelo's David, to securing a tour of SpaceX led by Elon Musk himself, his accomplishments always start with the same questions: How far can I take this? What would make this a stupid achievement? Steve examines famously stupid goals in history, the key habits of successful people, and lessons from his own career to help you let go of your fear and get out of your own way. If you do something amazing, you will be ridiculed until you are revered. Stop overthinking and go for ridiculous, stupid goals. Once you “go for stupid,” you open the door to the life you always dreamed about. https://www.goforstupid.com/

Steve Sims wrote his newest book out of pure aggravation. After he wrote his first book, he told me on an earlier podcast, Episode 19, that he didn't ever plan on writing another book. But then the pandemic hit, and Steve suddenly didn't have to travel every month. He had time to be with his family and to breathe and to think. But what he saw happening around the world angered him as people tore each other down instead of challenging and supporting one another.In this episode of “Authors Who Lead,” I talk with Steve about his journey writing his newest book, Go For Stupid: The Art of Achieving Ridiculous Goals, and how making big, stupid goals can impact our lives and our businesses.Want to become a published author?

Jay Abraham sits down with Steve Sims to discuss Steve's latest book, "Go for Stupid; The Art of Achieving Ridiculous Goals".

If you had a chance to learn how to set major goals from the man who sent clients to the wreck of the Titanic, arranged for people to get married by the Pope in the Vatican, and set up a private dinner at the feet of Michelangelo's David (statue) while being serenaded by Andrea Bocelli, would you seize it? You are about to get that opportunity! My guest today, Steve Sims, has done things that seem like they've been ripped out of a Hollywood movie script. Forbes and Entrepreneur magazine have even called him “The Real Wizard of Oz.”  Steve is an example that you don't need to be afraid to dream big and that nothing is impossible. Fear of failure is a self-fulfilling prophecy, and you need to eradicate those thoughts from your mind to achieve your most cherished goals. In today's conversation, we discussed the importance of thinking big, taking massive action and why you should embrace failure to get to success. We also discuss Steve's latest book Go For Stupid: The Art of Achieving Ridiculous Goals and his strategy for developing an unbeatable mindset that will make it possible to turn your dreams into a reality. KEY TAKEAWAYS The strategy that helped Steve go from being a nightclub doorman to doing business with Elon Musk, Sir Elton John, Sir Richard Branson, and many more. Why most people are scared to chase their deepest passions and Steve's method for overcoming that problem. How to forget the word “impossible” and go after ridiculous, stupid goals! If you act boldly, chances are you'll fail. But you have to get comfortable with failure to reach success. How Steve helps prison inmates turn illegal hustles into productive businesses.

Go For Stupid! What would you achieve if you weren't afraid of being laughed at? In the age of “gotcha” culture, people are terrified to do anything that might be laughed at. Steve Sims is the exact opposite. In my conversation with Steve, I discuss his newest book Go For Stupid: The Art of Achieving Ridiculous Goals. Steve talks about how to ignore what everyone else thinks and go for big, stupid, ridiculous goals. An inspiring conversation. I hope you enjoy it! Books by Steve below Guest Bio. Many speakers who claim to be “onions” – i.e. wrapped in mystical and magical layers of enigmatic meaning – have their metaphors mixed up, because they're typically nothing but smoke and mirrors; get too close, and it's all style and no substance. Steve ain't no onion. What you see IS what you get. And what you see and get is a man who you'd probably avoid making eye contact within an alley — or anywhere else for that matter. After all, a shaved head, Harley Davidson garb and body piercings on a 5' 11”, 240 lb. frame don't scream “let's be friends!” But that's the irony of it all, because, despite his gruff exterior, Steve is remarkably open, engaging, generous, intuitive, insightful and competent – and he's leveraged all of this to build a remarkably successful entrepreneurial career.
