"Kindness is never wasted—it expands into greatness." What happens when a broadcaster-turned-salesman discovers that giving is the fastest path to success? In this episode, I talk with Bob Burg, co-author of The Go-Giver, about kindness, influence, and building a life around service. This episode is sponsored by my new book BRANDJITSU, helping you find, shape, and share your story with the world. In This Episode In this episode, Michael Dargie speaks with Bob Burg, speaker, author, and co-creator of the international bestseller The Go-Giver. Known for its simple but powerful message—that shifting focus from getting to giving leads to success—The Go-Giver has sold over a million copies worldwide and become a staple in leadership, business, and personal development . Bob shares how he stumbled into sales after early stints in radio and television. With no formal training, he failed fast—until a desperate trip to a bookstore introduced him to the work of Tom Hopkins and Zig Ziglar. Devouring their books, he quickly learned that sales wasn't about talking people into something, but about providing real value. That discovery launched a lifelong pursuit of learning, leading him into the world of personal development classics like How to Win Friends and Influence People and Think and Grow Rich . The conversation spans from his childhood dream of playing third base for the Boston Red Sox to his career as a sought-after speaker, traveling the world to talk about influence, persuasion, and service. Bob explains why nobody buys because of your quota or goals—they buy because they believe they'll be better off. He also shares stories about life in Jupiter, Florida, with his rescue cat Buddy, his admiration for hockey legend Bobby Orr, and his simple joys like reading over coffee and bagels . Looking ahead, Bob is reworking his book Adversaries into Allies into a new edition called Genuine Influence: How to Master the Art of Persuasion, slated for release in 2026. His advice to "rebels in waiting" is grounded and practical: know your cause, find systems and mentors, take action, persist through the no's, and never mistake failure for finality . At its heart, this episode is about shifting perspective—success isn't about self-focus, it's about making every person and moment better off for having crossed your path. Quoteable Quotes "Nobody's going to buy from you because you have a quota. They buy because they believe they'll be better off." — Bob Burg "Success is really an inside job. It starts with what you put in your head and heart." — Bob Burg "The highest purpose of life is to make each moment better off because it passed by you." — Bob Burg "Kindness is never wasted—it expands into greatness." — Bob Burg "Our job in business is to be the Yoda. The customer is the Luke." — Michael Dargie Episode Highlights The Go-Giver | Why giving first creates success. From Radio to Sales | How failure led Bob to personal growth.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this episode for December 9th, join Hunter as he guides us through a thoughtful reading of First Timothy chapters 5 and 6, followed by the book of Titus. As your brother and Bible reading coach, Hunter invites you to quiet your heart, reflect on Scripture, and focus on genuine Christian living. Together, you'll explore what it looks like to serve others, leading a life of productivity and meaning rooted in serving, rather than self-interest. Today's episode also offers comforting prayers for Advent, encouragement to trust in God's goodness, and practical reminders—like making space for soul care and simple pleasures (yes, even a good bowl of chicken soup!). Listen in for reflection, nourishment for your soul, and a powerful reminder that you are deeply loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Focus on others. Paul says here in verse 14, "Our people must learn to do good by meeting the urgent needs of others. Then they will not be unproductive." Ironically, the opposite is true. If you want to have an unproductive life, an unfruitful life, then focus only on yourself. Zig Ziglar put it this way: "You can get everything in life you want if you'll just help enough other people to get what they want." And in John 12:24, Jesus says, "I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels, a plentiful harvest of new lives." A productive and fulfilling life comes when we take the focus off ourselves and begin to serve others. This doesn't mean that your life isn't worth anything, that abasement and self-degradation are the goal. No—your life is absolutely worthy of respect and love and care. Christ has demonstrated for us just how valuable your life is, and he has shown us the context of our lives. We are creatures made in relationship to others, and your own unique gifting and glory will find its deepest and truest expression as we pursue our lives in service to others. When we die to making this life about us, then we will have all that we want—more than we could have imagined in this life and in the life to come. And we can actually begin to do that now. Because our anxieties about our lives have been dealt with in Christ. He has restored our self-respect. He has made clear what our value is, so we don't have to try to compensate for something we think is missing, and fight to make this life all about us. The Gospel of Mark says, "For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many." So let us learn to do good by meeting the urgent needs of others, and we will not be unproductive. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL  

A single dinner turned into a platform that now reaches more than 20,000 listeners—and the story behind it is packed with grit, heart, and field-tested lessons. We sit down with our friend and mentor, DJ Harrington—the Tow Doctor—to unpack how a path that once pointed toward the priesthood led through retail grind, Uniroyal hustle, and a world-class speaking career that has influenced the towing industry across continents. DJ's stories are kinetic and practical: converting competitors into partners, reviving a legacy tire brand with creative branding, and transforming product “problems” into service bay traffic and loyal customers.The conversation moves from business tactics to the deeper why. DJ shares a family table moment that changed how he saw leadership—numbers as families, decisions as futures. That perspective fuels everything we do at the American Towing and Recovery Institute and with the Cardinal Legacy Towing Group: train hard, teach safety, and build leaders who take care of their people. We also get real about health. DJ opens up about Guillain-Barré, CIDP, and the fight to adapt; Wes talks about Parkinson's and the toughness it demands. The takeaway isn't pity—it's a playbook for resilience: processes and procedures, stacked with daily courage, protect teams in the field and at home.You'll hear how this show started, why we doubled down on great guests, and how live recordings at industry events turned our archive into a learning library. Expect stories from global stages, shout-outs to legends like Zig Ziglar and Lee Iacocca, and simple rules that help towers work smarter: prepare, pre-read, say yes to the moment, and convert every touchpoint into trust. If you care about safer recoveries, stronger businesses, and a community that shows up for each other, you'll feel right at home here.If this conversation moved you, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a teammate who needs a lift today.

A lot of folks think towing only makes the news when something goes wrong. We set out to change that story. In this conversation with Jeff Bauer, president of Cardinal Legacy, we dig into how leadership, culture, and smart growth can rebuild trust and turn good teams into great ones. From learning alongside respected operators to honoring their legacies through acquisitions, Jeff maps out how a people‑first strategy scales better than any fleet list.We get specific. Jeff shares the simple survey he uses to align roles with strengths, including the tale of a “bad fit” service writer who became a star in accounting once the work matched his wiring. We unpack temperaments, conflict resolution, and the difference between managing tasks and leading people. You'll hear how principles from mentors like John Maxwell and Zig Ziglar translate into shop reality—clear expectations, practical language, and a structure that turns blind spots into leverage. The result isn't theory: the team went from a $10M operation to north of $60M by pairing professionalism with consistent training.We also preview our two‑day leadership retreat in Cape Coral, Florida, built for towing pros and any leader who wants to grow. Expect sessions on blind spots, communication, hiring for strengths, and real‑world conflict tools led by voices from towing, law enforcement, and nonprofit leadership. If you've felt stuck on hiring, onboarding, or culture, this is your playbook to reset the year with clarity and momentum.Want in on the training wave?

What if your thought leadership wasn't just inspiring for 40 minutes on stage, but life-changing for years after the keynote? In this episode, Peter Winick talks with Tom Ziglar, CEO of Ziglar, Inc., about how he's evolving his father Zig Ziglar legacy into a modern, scalable thought leadership business. They dig into how to turn big ideas into programs, tools, and revenue streams that deliver real behavior change for clients, not just applause. Tom shares how Ziglar built an AI "digital brain" for Zig Ziglar by feeding in manuscripts and 50+ hours of audio. The result is Zig AI – a focused tool that gives only Zig's answers to modern questions. You'll hear how coaches are using it to adapt Zig's classic seven-step goal system into language an eight-year-old can use, without losing the depth of the original framework. They explore AI as a thought partner for speakers and experts. Tom shows how he uses AI to quickly understand new audiences, generate the "top 10 pain points" for a niche, and tailor stories so a talk lands with homeowners' association leaders one day and senior executives the next. This is practical, in-the-trenches use of AI to make your content more relevant, not more generic. Tom and Peter then break down the business models behind thought leadership. Drawing on Rory Vaden's lens, Tom explains the three lanes of content creators: entertainers, encouragers, and educators. He argues that the long-term business is built in the educational lane—where niche expertise and implementation tools create the long tail of revenue, even if the spotlight feels smaller. You'll also hear a powerful distinction: are you in the keynote business or the life-changing business? Tom shares what Ziglar learned after reviewing thousands of testimonials: for every one person who said a keynote changed their life, 99 credited a program or product. That insight reshaped how he designs calls-to-action, follow-through, and multi-step client engagements. The conversation closes with a look at trust and authenticity as strategic assets. Tom brings in Seth Godin's idea of "scalability of trust" and applies it to how thought leaders sell, speak, and serve. From customizing keynotes to building follow-on programs, Tom shows how to design a business that scales trust, not just reach—while staying the same person on and off stage. If you advise, speak, coach, or consult, this episode will help you reframe your IP, your offers, and your use of AI so you can create deeper impact and more predictable revenue from your expertise. Three Key Takeaways: • Keynotes don't create most of the life change—programs do. For every one person who credited a keynote with changing their life, 99 pointed to a program, product, or course. If you're in the "life-changing" business, your follow-on offers matter more than the standing ovation. • AI can be a thought partner that makes your IP more usable and targeted. By building Zig AI from Zig Ziglar's manuscripts and audio, Tom shows how AI can give only "on-brand" answers, adapt classic frameworks (like the seven-step goal system) for specific audiences—right down to an eight-year-old—and help experts quickly tune their content to different markets. • The long-term business is in education, not entertainment. While entertainers dominate the airwaves, the real, scalable revenue sits in the educational lane—where niche expertise, tools, and implementation support live. That's where thought leaders build the long tail of their business, well beyond a single talk or appearance. If this episode got you thinking about the difference between a keynote and a real thought leadership business, your next listen should be the Tendayi Viki episode "Thought Leadership Business Models". Together, these two episodes connect the dots between inspiring from the stage and building scalable offers, frameworks, and revenue streams around your ideas. Queue up the Tendayi Viki episode next and ask yourself: am I running a talk, or building a business?

Ever meet someone who wants to be great at something but has no idea where to start? That was me in a sauna on Thanksgiving morning, talking to a young guy who wanted to be a motivational speaker. He had the passion but zero clue about the path forward. Sound familiar? I shared a classic Zig Ziglar lesson about the stages of competence that changed my life years ago. Turns out, knowing what stage you're in makes all the difference. Because you can't get where you're going if you don't know where you are. Featured Story Thanksgiving morning. My wife kicked me out of the kitchen, so I hit the gym. After my workout, I headed to the sauna. Young guy in there, polite enough to get off his phone. We started talking. He's a locksmith, but what he really wants? To be a motivational speaker. Problem is, he had no idea how to get there. No content. No roadmap. Just the desire and some friends who said he pumped them up. I've been there. I've done 12,000 podcasts. I knew exactly where he was stuck. So I spent the next 20 minutes in a hot sauna walking him through the stages every beginner goes through. We talked until our heart rates went crazy and we had to bail. I'll probably never see him again. But I got to do what someone once did for me. Pass it forward. Important Points You don't know what you don't know when you start something new, and that's perfectly normal—everyone around you gets it, even if you feel like a dummy. Admitting "I have no idea what I'm doing" changed everything for me, and it'll change things for you too because pretending to know blocks real learning. The final stage isn't just being competent yourself—it's recognizing and developing the unconscious competence in others, which is where real impact happens. Memorable Quotes "You cannot replace experience. You just can't." "Some of the best motivation I've ever had in my life, I did not like the person when they delivered that lesson." "The ability to recognize and develop the unconscious competence of others." Scott's Three-Step Approach Accept that you're an unconscious incompetent when starting anything new, and embrace that stage instead of pretending you know more than you do. Move to conscious incompetence by admitting what you don't know, which opens the door to real learning and removes the pressure of having all the answers. Work toward conscious competence where you know you're good, then use that knowledge to help others recognize their own unconscious competence.

Are you chasing unrealistic sales goals or struggling to scale despite working harder than ever? Sales can feel messy when goals are unclear and the pressure keeps rising. In this episode, Doug C. Brown brings a calm and practical view that helps founders and sales leaders look at growth with a clearer mind. His approach is shaped by years of real work with entrepreneurs, corporations, and fast growing teams. The conversation touches on the moments that decide whether a buyer leans in or steps back, the habits that block progress, and the simple actions that keep revenue steady even in a tough market.Doug shares how most sales challenges begin with unrealistic goals, unclear ideal clients, and teams that freeze when stress climbs. He talks about his early lessons from his father, cases from his consulting work, and the math based approach he uses to help businesses build predictable revenue. You will hear how re engaging dormant clients creates fast results, why the right buyer matters more than the loudest market, and how small wins can shift a team out of fear and back into performance. The episode also includes a candid moment from Doug's own life when he had to rebuild using nothing but his phone and his network.Topics discussed include the sales mindset, predictable revenue, buyer psychology, ideal client identification, prospecting, client retention, outbound strategy, performance habits, realistic goal setting, and relationship driven selling. Entities mentioned in the conversation include CEO Sales Strategies, private consulting clients, and stories from Doug's early work in his family's business.If you are an entrepreneur, a solopreneur, a founder, or someone responsible for sales inside a growing company, this episode gives you practical insight you can use today.

Life is all about choices. Anne Frank wrote - "Our lives are fashioned by our choices. First we make our choices. Then our choices make us."Zig Ziglar said - "Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved."Les Brown said - “Remember, you have the power to change your life by changing your choices."Choices are powerful. And there's one choice that's more powerful than the rest. In today's episode, I'm explaining one choice that can literally change everything for you. It's really as much of a mindset shift as it is a simple choice. Once you begin to think differently and see certain choices differently, you'll start to make different choices. And those new choices will lead to new results. It might seem hard or feel scary, but it will be more than worth it. Crank up the volume, grab a cup of coffee, and let's do it!

Are basic manners, such as saying “please” and “thank-you,” old-fashioned and a thing of the past? Why is it that adults have a tough time expressing appreciation for things they have been given? Zig Ziglar, known as “America's motivator,” has some interesting thoughts: “Of all the things a parent can teach a child, manners rates very close to the top to the ‘must teach' list. Number one: when a child is taught, from the time he or she can talk, to say ‘thank-you' you are teaching that child thankfulness. Number two: the insertion of the word ‘please' in a request...Article Link

In this candid episode of the SpeakersU Podcast, James Taylor and Maria Franzoni tackle one of the most dangerous traps for professional speakers — ego. While confidence is essential to step on stage, unchecked ego can sabotage client relationships, damage reputations, and even end careers. Maria shares shocking true stories of “speakers behaving badly,” from diva demands and drunken disasters to midnight tantrums over hotel rooms. James reveals how cultural differences, gender perceptions, and even microphone preferences can blur the line between professionalism and arrogance. Together they explore how to stay grounded, easy to work with, and respected — even when success and attention start to inflate your self-image. If you've ever wondered where confidence ends and ego begins, this episode offers hard-won lessons, cautionary tales, and practical ways to keep your feet firmly on the ground.     Key Takeaways Confidence ≠ arrogance – A healthy ego gets you on stage; an inflated one gets you blacklisted. Be easy to work with – Kindness to AV teams, organisers, and staff is remembered (and shared). Do your own briefing calls – Never outsource relationships that build trust with clients.

“Never again do I ever want somebody to be able to control my financial freedom or future.”  Most men settle for a paycheck without realizing it's shrinking against inflation. Financial freedom isn't about wishing life were easier—it's about building strength, taking responsibility, and facing problems head-on. The real measure of a man is not what he earns, but the character he shows in how he lives.  Gary Hibbert reveals how a brush with layoffs pushed him to rethink everything. He shares the lessons that turned debt into discipline, properties into freedom, and setbacks into tools for growth. His story is proof that mindset is the foundation for building lasting success. Gary is a Canadian real-estate investor and entrepreneur who walked away from his nine-to-five to take control of his future. Today, he mentors men and investors, showing them how to create wealth while building character that lasts.  Learn more & connect:  https://garyhibbert.ca/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/SHCInvestor/videos  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/smarthomechoice/  Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/real-talk-with-gary-real-estate-investing/id1437187189  Also mentioned:  • Jim Rohn, Zig Ziglar, Brian Tracy  • The Secret movie  • Lisa Nichols, Jack Canfield  • Hard Times Create Strong Men – Stefan Aarnio  You're invited to come to a Sovereign Circle meeting to experience it for yourself.

Drawing inspiration from Zig Ziglar's classic metaphor, Dr. Christie explains why consistent effort, strategic planning, and patience are essential for sustainable success.

Designed exclusively for chiropractic students, this half-day event will cover practice analytics, content marketing, community outreach, and other essential business skills rarely taught in school. Attendance is limited to 24 participants, so early registration is encouraged.In the main discussion, Dr. Christie breaks down five key steps to priming the pump in practice:Clarify your vision – Create a motivating long-term and three-year vision.Know your audience – Identify and deeply understand who you serve.Streamline your operations – Build efficient systems for a great patient experience.Amplify your marketing – Stay consistent with content and community outreach.Plan your finances – Gain clarity and control over practice numbers to support growth.Whether you're just starting out or looking to re-energize your practice, this episode offers both practical advice and inspiration to stay the course, prime the pump, and achieve lasting results.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes How to Become a Better Person Through Life's Storms September 17, 2025 | Episode 5183 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Life throws storms at all of us, and this past week has been no exception. I'm diving into how you can not just survive these challenging moments but actually become a better person because of them. Drawing from a recent client conversation and my own experiences weathering life's ups and downs, I'm sharing the three essential strategies that'll help you navigate any storm with strength and purpose. Because here's the thing—storms don't just pass over you, they can transform you if you let them. Featured Story Scott opens up about his unexpected journey from disc jockey to personal development advocate, sparked by a friend giving him Zig Ziglar's "See You at the Top" cassette series back in the eighties. What started as a hundred-dollar investment changed everything about how he viewed the world. Now, twenty years into podcasting and helping others, he's applying those lessons to help listeners navigate the storms that shake us all—because the goal isn't just to survive, it's to come out stronger on the other side. Important Points When facing any storm, you must lead with your internal values and stay the course—whatever you believe in, lean into it because external support can't fill the internal void you're feeling. Seek advice and resources from people with genuine wisdom, not just anyone with an opinion—there's a big difference between noise and knowledge, especially in our social media-driven world. Embrace faith and courage because a strong will makes you stronger—nine times out of ten, you're going to survive the storm and find your way to a new normal. Memorable Quotes "When you're going through a storm of any kind, lead with your internal values and stay the course." "Nine times out of 10, you're going to survive the storm." "The more you accept that you can only do so much, it is going to be what it's going to be, and I need to frame this in a way that I can understand it, get the best out of life and do the best I can while I'm here." Scott's Three-Step Approach Look inside yourself and identify what you truly believe in—your core values become your anchor when everything else feels unstable. Find someone with real wisdom to lean on during difficult times—seek out mentors, counselors, or trusted advisors who can offer perspective beyond the storm. Hold your chin high and keep marching forward with faith and courage—accept that storms are temporary and focus on what you can control while letting go of what you can't.

Jim Rohn reveals three powerful success equations that shaped his life — and can transform yours. Drawing wisdom from the Bible, John F. Kennedy, and Zig Ziglar, he explains how service is the true path to wealth, respect, and a life well-lived. Whether you're chasing personal growth or building a business, this classic message is your reminder: if you help enough people, greatness will follow.Source: Focus on Yourself, Not Others | Jim Rohn MindsetHosted by Sean CroxtonFollow me on Instagram Check out the NEW Black Excellence Daily podcast.

Start Your Transformation Now⁠  If you're like most people into personal development, you've probably heard someone along the way say, “You get paid according to the value you create in the world.” I heard that many years ago and used to believe that if I wanted to become rich I needed to create more value in the world. You know, the old Zig Ziglar quote, “Help enough people get what they want and they'll help you get what you want.” Over the years I've discovered that is only half of the equation. In this episode I talk about:[2:42] Why many people who create a lot of value in the world are broke[4:40] The reason the “social worker” mentality does not create business wealth[6:54] Why you have to couple prosperity consciousness with the value you create[12:25] Why contribution is more important than achievement[15:19] And, specifically, how you must first value the value you createIf you don't value your own value, then it's going to be hard to attract prosperity because you don't value the very thing which is supposed to attract money to you. Value what you do and the world will respond to that value. Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You have to value what you do. If you don't value your own offering, no one else will.
