Send Us A Message or Ask Us A Question? Always Working: Marcus on Mental Health, Meaning, and Building a Purpose-Driven BrandSavia Rocks opens Season 7 of the Us People Podcast with guest Marcus, founder of Always Working Clothing (AWC), a creative writing master's student, filmmaker, and supporting artist, who shares how growing up in Southeast London during post-code war tensions shaped his desire for kindness, community, and change.Marcus describes shedding others' expectations, becoming more vulnerable, and focusing on mental health, reframing trauma as something that can lead to growth. He explains launching AWC three years ago after depression and feeling lost post-undergrad, later relaunching it in November with a stronger purpose centered on moving through hardships and supporting mental health, while navigating family support mixed with skepticism. Marcus outlines his busy routine balancing dissertation, freelance film/TV work, business planning, and a documentary exploring meaningful life without burnout or loneliness, discusses masculinity and vulnerability, and recalls finding peace after successfully hosting his first AWC event and donating to charity. He directs listeners to Always Working Clothing on Instagram, Home Media Productions on YouTube, and alwaysworkingclothing.com, noting he is not currently selling clothes while prioritizing the mental health mission.00:00 Welcome and Legacy01:10 Season Seven Intro01:51 Meet Marcus and AWC03:09 Growing Up Southeast London04:58 Kindness Over Gangster Culture08:11 Mirror Identity and Self Growth10:36 Starting Always Working Clothing15:16 Support Systems and Family Doubts20:20 Daily Routine and Avoiding Burnout24:53 Curiosity Documentary and Collabs30:09 Men and Mental Health32:49 Vulnerability Is Strength36:21 Pass On the Favor38:06 What Actually Matters41:01 Life Without Judgment46:23 Soundtrack of My Life49:03 Finding Peace After the Event53:04 Where to Find Marcus54:44 Final Thanks and Sign-Off56:50 Closing Song LyricsInstagram: always_working_clothing Youtube: homedia productionsTiktok: alwaysworkingclothingWebsite: www.alwaysworkingclothing.comThank you so much Marcus for letting us know that life does not always give us the start we need but we can change path and find our passion. - Savia RocksSupport the show

One of the biggest things that slows moms down in business usually isn't a lack of strategy. It's the mental drama that happens when we start worrying, second guessing ourselves, and deciding that what we're doing isn't working. When we believe we're failing or falling behind, it can drain our energy, motivation, and confidence.In this episode, I share a mindset shift that has helped me and many of the moms I work with stop spiraling when things don't go according to plan: it's always working. This doesn't mean pretending everything is fine or ignoring information. It means recognizing that we only see one small piece of what's happening and choosing to believe that every experience is giving us information, moving us forward, or teaching us something we need to know.For more information, transcript, and show notes, click here: jenna.coach/116 Join me for a free consultation by clicking here: https://mom.jenna.coach/apply You're invited to join us every 2nd Thursday for my free Mom Entrepreneurs Circle.

Time is a tension in life. As Jesus defends his actions on the Sabbath to the Jewish Leaders, he articulates a different concept of time: now and not yet. How does this reshape the way we approach our time?   Taught by Ryan Doucet.

Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike continues our Thanksgiving focus by sharing from another section of The Greatest Treasure, titled “God Is Always Working for Good in the World.” Even when life feels heavy or confusing, we can give thanks because God is continually at work—redeeming, restoring, guiding, and weaving His purposes together for our ultimate good and His glory. Gratitude grows when we remember that behind every moment stands a faithful God who is always working for good.

When things seem to be falling apart, life can feel like a puzzle where the pieces don't make sense. Pastor Stu Hodges reminds us today that God's plan for our lives is bigger than the moment we are in, and while we may just see one piece of the puzzle, God sees the whole picture.

A new analysis by the Ludwig Institute for Shared Economic Policy finds 1 in 4 middle class households living in functional unemployment, not earning enough or making the benefits that enable them to live a comfortable life. The BIDEN ADMIN was cooking the books. HHS secretary Bobby Kennedy says the NIH will no longer publish in big pharma-controlled scientific journals like The Lancet. A lifelong democrat realizes he'd been brainwashed before becoming a republican.

During a practice round at a major golf tournament recently, one of the players hit an exceptionally beautiful shot. A fan in the gallery exclaimed, "Man, I wish I could hit a shot like that!" The player walked over to the fan and said, tongue-in-cheek, "No, you don't." The fan looked confused. "What do you mean?" The player replied, "You don't want to hit a shot like that because that means hitting a thousand balls a day, every day, for the next 20 years. That's what it takes to hit a shot like that." And that's true for pretty much everything you want to accomplish life—whether it's playing golf, the piano, selling, investing, or mastering AI. If you want to be elite, you have to do a lot of repetitions of the same thing to reach the top.  Adopt The Mamba Mentality You've got to practice constantly. And this is what a lot of people miss. See, the truth is you can have anything in life you want—pretty much within reason—as long as you're willing to do the boring work. You know what separates Warren Buffett, the greatest investor of our generation, from other investors? He's read over 100,000 financial statements in his lifetime. Think about that. 100,000 financial statements. That's not exciting work. That's not sexy. It is sitting alone, poring over numbers, analyzing balance sheets, income statements, cash flow statements, day after day, year after year, decade after decade. But that boring work made him one of the richest people on the planet. Or look at Kobe Bryant. Kobe was famous for his "Mamba Mentality" which meant showing up at 4 AM to practice, hours before his teammates. It meant shooting thousands of the same shots over and over. His trainer once said Kobe would practice one simple move 700-800 times in a single session. Not 10 times, not 50 times. 700-800 times. The same move, over and over and over again. That's the boring work that made him a legend. Going out to the driving range and hitting a thousand balls with your seven iron is one of the most boring things you can possibly do. Crap, hitting 50 balls with your seven iron is boring. But that's what separates the top performers from the low performers—they're willing to do the boring things. Top Performers are Always Working at It In sales, top performers are constantly studying. I meet them all the time. They show up in my seminars, read my books and listen to my podcasts. They're taking courses on Sales Gravy University. They invest in learning and practicing every single day.  When we run role plays, they jump right in. They recognize that, yeah, that's boring work. But you've got to do the boring things, the repetitive things, to get what you want.  Be Careful What You Wish For So the questions you have to ask yourself when you make that wish for what you want or set a goal is: How bad do you want it? Are you willing to do the work?  Are you willing to make the sacrifice?  Are you willing to grind day in and day out?  Are you willing to do all of boring reps that nobody ever sees in order to reach the very top?  Success is Paid for In Advance With Boring Work You can accomplish anything once you accept that the price for success is paid for in advance. The price of admission to the elite levels of any profession is doing the boring work that most people aren't willing to do. Let me give you an example from my own life. Years ago, when I was starting out in my sales career, I made a commitment to make 100 cold calls every single day no matter what. Rain or shine. Good mood or bad mood. Whether I felt like it or not. You know first hand that cold calling is not exciting work. It's tedious, repetitive, and rejection dense. Honestly, most people—including my boss—thought I was nuts.  But those 100 calls a day allowed me to out perform and out earn all of my peers. It made me the top sales rep in my fortune 200 company. It bought houses, made me wealthy, and eventually gave me the platform to write books, speak on stages and build Sales Gravy. The Michelangelo Principle  I like to think about it as the Michelangelo Principle. You know the story—someone once asked Michelangelo how he created his masterpiece David from a block of marble. And he replied, "I just chipped away everything that didn't look like David." Excellence works the same way. You chip away at your limitations through practice and repetition. Every cold call you make chips away at your fear of rejection. Every role play you participate in chips away at your awkwardness around handling objections. Every book you read chips away at your ignorance about your industry or your craft. The Invisible Work Nobody Every Sees It's not glamorous. Nobody's going to film you making your hundredth cold call of the week and post it on social media. Nobody's going to celebrate you for doing pre-call planning on a Sunday evening. You are not going to give you a standing ovation for waking up an hour early to invest in professional development before work. This is the invisible work that no one ever sees. The small, seemingly insignificant actions, performed consistently over time, yield massive results. This is the Law of Cumulative Impact. Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympian of all time with 28 medals, trained for 5 straight years without missing a single day—even on Christmas, even on his birthdays. His coach said that by training 365 days a year, Phelps gained a 52-day advantage over competitors who took Sundays off. Those single days compounded into the most dominant swimming career in history. The problem is, most people quit before the compound effect kicks in. They do the boring work for a week, maybe a month, don't see immediate results, and give up. They never experience the exponential growth that comes from consistent, boring effort applied over years. Embrace Discomfort Look at Tom Brady. For 23 seasons, he was typically the first player to arrive at the facility and the last to leave. At 44 years old, he was still doing the same boring drills he did as a rookie.  His former teammate once said that Brady would spend hours studying game film that most quarterbacks would skip over. While other players were enjoying their off-seasons, Brady was working with his receivers on timing routes. While they were taking vacation, he was perfecting his footwork. That commitment to uncomfortable, boring work is why he has seven Super Bowl rings. But that discomfort? That's where growth happens. It's like working out. If you've ever done any serious physical training, you know that muscle growth happens when you push past comfort. When your muscles burn, when you feel like you can't do one more rep—that's precisely when you need to do one more. Sales excellence works the same way. When you're tired of practicing your pitch, do it five more times. When you're dreading making another cold call, make ten more. When you think you think you've prepared enough, do more. Get into the habit of Eating the Frog. "Do the thing you least want to do first thing in the morning." That thing you're avoiding is exactly what you need to do to move your career and income forward. Tedious Discipline is Your Competitive Edge Recently I was working with a sales team.There was this one rep, Mike. He was middle of the pack—not terrible, but not stellar either. During our training, I emphasized the importance of research and reading to develop industry knowledge. Most of the team nodded along, but Mike took it to heart. He committed to spending 15 minutes each morning specifically to gain a better understanding of his industry and grow his business acumen.  Six months later, I got an email from Mike's sales manager. Mike was now the top performer on the team. His close rate had doubled. His average deal size had increased by 40%. All from a simple, boring discipline of spending 15 minutes learning about his industry. . When I called Mike to congratulate him, he made a confession. He said, "Jeb, to be honest, I hated doing the research at first. It was boring and felt like a waste of time. But after about two months, I started noticing patterns and understanding my customers better. Discovery calls went deeper. I saw opportunities to help them that I would have missed before. My customers gave me a seat at the table because they viewed me as an expert." That's how the boring work transforms. What starts as tedious discipline eventually becomes your competitive edge. There is No Such Thing as Natural Talent Before going any further, let's address the myth of natural talent. I hear it all the time: "Oh, she's just a natural salesperson." "He is a born closer." It's pure BS. I've coached plenty of "naturals" who failed because they relied on charm instead of working to master the craft.  True sales excellence isn't about what you were born with—it's about process and skills. And skills are built through the discipline to do the boring, repetitive work. Take Jerry Rice, widely considered the greatest wide receiver in NFL history. Was he the most naturally gifted athlete? No. He wasn't the fastest, strongest or the tallest. But his work ethic was legendary. His off-season hill training program was so grueling that teammates who tried to join him would literally vomit. He would run the same routes thousands of times until they were perfect. He would catch hundreds of balls after practice when everyone else had gone home. That's not natural talent—that's an unnatural commitment to doing the boring work. The truth is that repetition is the mother of skill.  Greatness Has a Price Before the Beatles became famous, they played over 1,200 live shows in Hamburg, Germany. They would play eight hours a night, seven days a week. That's over 10,000 hours of practice in just a few years. That's what made them the Beatles—not just natural musical ability,

During a practice round at a major golf tournament recently, one of the players hit an exceptionally beautiful shot. A fan in the gallery exclaimed, "Man, I wish I could hit a shot like that!" The player walked over to the fan and said, tongue-in-cheek, "No, you don't." The fan looked confused. "What do you mean?" The player replied, "You don't want to hit a shot like that because that means hitting a thousand balls a day, every day, for the next 20 years. That's what it takes to hit a shot like that." And that's true for pretty much everything you want to accomplish life—whether it's playing golf, the piano, selling, investing, or mastering AI. If you want to be elite, you have to do a lot of repetitions of the same thing to reach the top.  Adopt The Mamba Mentality You've got to practice constantly. And this is what a lot of people miss. See, the truth is you can have anything in life you want—pretty much within reason—as long as you're willing to do the boring work. You know what separates Warren Buffett, the greatest investor of our generation, from other investors? He's read over 100,000 financial statements in his lifetime. Think about that. 100,000 financial statements. That's not exciting work. That's not sexy. It is sitting alone, poring over numbers, analyzing balance sheets, income statements, cash flow statements, day after day, year after year, decade after decade. But that boring work made him one of the richest people on the planet. Or look at Kobe Bryant. Kobe was famous for his "Mamba Mentality" which meant showing up at 4 AM to practice, hours before his teammates. It meant shooting thousands of the same shots over and over. His trainer once said Kobe would practice one simple move 700-800 times in a single session. Not 10 times, not 50 times. 700-800 times. The same move, over and over and over again. That's the boring work that made him a legend. Going out to the driving range and hitting a thousand balls with your seven iron is one of the most boring things you can possibly do. Crap, hitting 50 balls with your seven iron is boring. But that's what separates the top performers from the low performers—they're willing to do the boring things.

Many cynically believe that God created the universe, but now remains distant, aloof and uninvolved. But the truth is that God holds intimate knowledge of every person and is always working behind the scenes to draw them to Jesus. And when He wins a person's heart, He faithfully works to conform them into the image of His Son.

Prior to our birth, each of us set our intentions for what we wanted to explore in this lifetime. On our other podcast 'An Unimaginable Life' we have a series called "Dead Talks," where Christy brings in famous people from the nonphysical. The first question I ask them is "What were your pre-birth intentions?" For those of us who are following Joshua's teachings, one of our pre-birth intentions is to have a massive shift in perspective over one lifetime. It's helpful to remember that this is what we really want in our lives. Everything is always working out to enable each of us to have a massive shift in perspective this time around.

Read our new book, The Score That Matters https://amzn.to/3VFVYAm Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com The Learning Leader Show With Ryan Hawk Episode #579: David Perell - Setting The Standard, Cultivating Your Taste, Pursuing Excellence, Becoming a Sloganeer, Always Working/Never Working, & Lessons From a Mysterious Billionaire Notes: Set the standard – “It's your job to have the highest quality standards of anybody you work with. Every day, you'll face pressure to lower them. Don't do it. If you can set a high standard and simply maintain it, you'll do very well for yourself.” Have a high-quality bar. Do three things: Define it: Clearly state the standards. (read The 11 Laws of Showrunning) Maintain it: This is hard to do. Raise it: Keep pushing. You need to define what quality looks like. Set the true north. David worked with a coach to establish his core values. And he was going to narrow it down to five and the coach said, “Nope, it's just one. It's the one that everything in your life orbits around... It's The Pursuit of Excellence. The biggest piece of low-hanging fruit for leaders is getting funnier: Nobody trains themselves to get funnier though. It's strangely taboo. That's why it's such an opportunity. "Laughter is the sound of comprehension." Say something memorable. Humor is memorable. A good way to think... Deconstruct something funny. David spends a lot of time understanding why Theo Von is so funny. The key to excellent storytelling: a moment of change. Conflict and suspense carry stories. Robert Caro writing the LBJ books... "What would I see if I was there." He moved to where LBJ lived to see what it was like to be there. How to cultivate taste: Make a list of things you love/hate. Look for things you love (but aren't supposed to), and things you hate (but are supposed to love). Make things. Don't be a passive consumer. Be a connoisseur. Be discerning about what you consume. Amor Tolles - History is bad for knowing what's good now. Consume old things. Museums - Pay attention to what elicits a reaction. Why is it a 10? Why is it a 1? What do you love? What do you hate? Why? Archegos is David's favorite Greek word, and it gets to the heart of good leadership. Four meanings: Author, founder, pioneer, leader America's founding fathers are the canonical example Lessons from a mysterious billionaire mentor: David asks very specific questions, listens, and takes lots of notes. When meeting with a mentor, show up with energy and specific questions. They are tired of hearing the boring generic questions. Be specific. The mentor talks 98% of the time and David just types what he says. He now has 18,000 words worth of notes. Some lessons: CEOs are Sloganeers: CEOs shouldn't write strategy memos. They should drive slogans.  Three lines. Three words each. (Bezos: Focus on the Customer) CEOs should tell the same stories over and over again, refining their pitch like a comedian. Gauging reactions Asking questions Listening to push-back Seeing what makes people's eyes light up Your message is only landing once people start making fun of you. Good goal in life: Always working, never working Story from Patrick O'Shaughnessy. He was asked how much time he spent preparing. Initially, he said, "not much." Then he thought for a while, and said, "I'm preparing all the time. My whole life is preparing to ask these questions."
