Achieving monumental success can create a lull. A lull can sabotage you because it makes you rest on your oars. You are not advancing forward. You are going soft. But don't worry about it. This is reversible. I have been there, too, and I have undergone a mental transformation to create drive and momentum again. In today's solo episode, I offer a roadmap so you can use failure as fuel for success. These are some of the topics I cover here: - The lull that comes after success can sabotage you - Meaning of mediocrity creep- Influence of David Goggins' work in my life- How I created momentum for myself - Advice for achieving sustained excellenceWhen nothing feels like success, you will maintain your high standards. And you will continue being a limitless MD. So if you notice you're going soft, just focus on self-care, recommit to action, go back to your weekly reviews, and connect again with your why. Be vigilant about this, and you will achieve sustained excellence. Until next time. “If you're really crushing it, it's hard to maintain that hard level, that high engine of ingenuity, engine of drive and forward momentum.” - Dr. Vikram RayaIn This Episode: - Welcome back to another episode of the Limitless MD podcast- The lull that comes after success can sabotage you - Meaning of mediocrity creep - Influence of David Goggins' work in my life - How I created momentum for myself - Advice for achieving sustained excellence Resources Mentioned: - Book “Never Finished: Unshackle Your Mind and Win the War Within” by David Goggins - https://www.amazon.com/Never-Finished-Unshackle-Your-Within/dp/1544534086 - Book “Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds” by David Goggins - https://www.amazon.com/Cant-Hurt-Me-Master-Your/dp/1544512287 Resources: - Registration link for Physician Wealth Summit: https://www.besteverconference.com/pws - Join our Free community of high-performing physicians: the Physician Wealth Accelerator https://limitless-md.mn.co/- https://vikramraya.com/programs/ - Sign up to my email list - https://vikramraya.com/- Apply to work with Vik and book a clarity call here - https://bit.ly/3CXuigz- Group Coaching Now Open!

Hey Helpers! Okay, fine, let's get serious about this looming cloud of *burnout.* Burnout is a beast lurking in the shadows of the helper's life. Culturally many of us are burned out before we even step into the office, then we endure the work there too. Often, the way we define and address the concept of burnout is already working against us. Tune in while we break it down and explore some ideas of what intersects with the helper's burnout cycle, and what might help us break out of it. We're so glad you're here. A few FYIs: -we swear sometimes; this is an uncensored show full of our personal opinions. -References this week: (Book) Can't Even: How Millenials Became the Burnout Generation - https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/cant-even-anne-helen-petersen/1135053861 And remember, we're not YOUR helpers.

When we look at top athletes, musicians, and geniuses we tend to think that they got where they are because of talent and maybe a little determination. But did you know that talent has nothing to do with how far you'll go in life? Today on The Unlimited Potential Show we dive into Grit: The Power Of Passion And Perseverance by Angela Duckworth. We talk about how you don't need talent to achieve your goals in life and even how being talented in an area might actually harm you. Anybody has the power and ability to become who they are with one simple principle.  We discuss some of the top athletes from Michael Jordan to Michael Phelps and just what it took for them to become household names and even history makers in their industries. There is something across the board you can find within professional athletes, musicians, or scholars and that is how it all came from within themselves. They were able to dig deep and find the true grit of persevering despite all odds to take the top spot and become the best that they could possibly be.  The good news? You have that exact same ability within you.  So join us as we talk about what we believe are the two principles for success, how you can increase your own grit, deciding what you want to go for with unlimited potential and even some tips to increase your physical and mental self in everyday life. Your unlimited potential is right in front of you, if you will only be willing to face the hard stuff and push through.  For links to all the resources we listed in this show or to join our private Facebook community check out the links below!   More Of What We Cover  The cost of power without strong morals The #1 predictor of success  Why grit is more important than talent How focusing on talent keeps you from achieving greatness Why the biggest names are so successful What it takes to find the grit within yourself  The two principles needed for success Tips to increase your grit Developing talents to become the best that you can be How to push through fatigue and grow your mind Why fasting can help not only your body but your mind The power of meditation And much more!  LINKS:    Website: Spartan.com Website: https://joedesena.com/ Website: https://themobmuseum.org/ Website: https://www.navy.com/seals Watch The Goodfellas Watch The Godfather  Watch American Gangster Book: Grit: The Power Of Passion And Perseverance by Angela Duckworth Wikipedia Article: The Last Dance Wikipedia Article: Grant Hackett Website: https://us.michaelphelps.com/ Book: Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins Youtube: Casey Neistat Youtube: Make It Count Website: John Maxwell   Private Facebook Community:  www.facebook.com/groups/unlimitedpotentialpodcast  Personal Websites:  morrellfirm.com  ramcheruvu.wixsite.com/doctorram    Youtube Channel:  www.youtube.com/channel/UCtSIgawdfsNk0bk4Rwotz7w  Social Media:  www.linkedin.com/in/doctorram  https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopher-morrell  Episode Minute By Minute:    0:02 A look into today's episode 0:55 Welcome back! 2:18 Learning from the villains  13:53 Topic of the day: Grit 14:12 The number one thing that dictates your success  15:51 Dr. Ram's favorite thing about grit  26:37 The connection of  preparation and perseverance  31:38 You never know your true capacity  37:55 Building grit happens when no one is looking 46:05 Practical ways to build grit in your life 59:17 Final thoughts and best quotes from the book

Waste is a resource and the pollution that it causes is not only avoidable. If we treat waste as a resource it can lead to a better life for the people and the planet. — Dr. Shannon Bouton   Our waste is polluting the world. It’s poisoning our air, land, and water. However, there are many people working on amazing solutions. On today’s episode of Sustainable, I talk about the work McKinsey.org is doing to have a lasting and substantial impact on complex social challenges with Dr Shannon Bouton. Shannon is the Global Executive Director of the Sustainable Communities Program at McKinsey.org, a charitable organization, founded by McKinsey & Company to have lasting and substantial impact on complex social challenges. Before this, she worked at McKinsey & Co for 12 years as the Chief Operating Officer of the McKinsey Center for Business and Environment.   With a background in field biology, Shannon has served as an environmental consultant to grassroots non-profits in the Brazilian Pantanal, the world’s largest tropical wetland, and with the Army Corp of Engineers in the Florida Everglades.    Her Ph.D is in natural resources and the environment and Shannon writes on topics such as sustainability, innovation and urban mobility. Shannon shares how McKinsey.org helps create a positive impact for our environment. She talks about how to best address sustainability challenges that cities face around the globe. She also shares the actions we can take to reduce waste and how we can recycle both plastic and organic waste.   In this episode you will learn: The inspiration behind McKinsey & Company in creating a non-profit How Shannon ended up getting involved in sustainability and waste management work The key differences in terms of how McKinsey.org is working vs that of McKinsey & Company Sustainable community projects in Argentina and Bali and it’s waste problem Generating revenue out of waste and recyclables to bring value back to communities Creating instability in the market of recyclables through market-driven mechanisms The unstable price and demand for recyclables Key learnings from creating stability within the marketplace for waste How waste and recycling has become a public health issue The advancement of technology and the importance of scaling and scaling fast Practicing self-care and preventing burnout The discrimination against different parts of society especially for people who live in unknown areas How sustainability and nature impacted and influenced Shannon’s life and work Connect with Shannon Bouton & McKinsey.org LinkedIn Twitter Know more about her here   Also Mentioned McKinsey.com McKinsey.org Jane Goodall David Goggin’s Book: Can’t Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds If you enjoyed this, check out episode 140: Changing the Way Waste is Managed Greg Lettieri, & CEO, RTS

'Tis the season for resolutions and goals.   I love goals. Resolutions? Not so much. Why? The Average Joe (or Josephine) excitedly set out on his/her resolutions and then abandons them after about 2 1/2 weeks (on average)     In This Episode, We Look At: The lack of accountability is a major contributor to abandoned resolutions   I am a proponent of moving forward, improving various areas of our lives, which are generally defined in Annual measurements — and I believe that is where the problem lies.   A 365 Day goal can seem overwhelming on Day three for example, or especially after a set back and we're starting all over— with only 362 days to go!   A 13 Week Goal seems to be more effective.   Taken one week at a time Focusing on one day at a time.   [In Episode 17, we covered Habits]   It is One-quarter of year.   Choose a measurable goal that you would like to accomplish in a shorter period of time:   Weight loss? Can do!   Improve strength? Can do!   Write that Book? Can do!   Lower cholesterol? Yep!   Key: Daily focus, weekly review   Track daily action steps in a journal of digital file   Each day of the week, have your goal (13 week) written at the top List up to three Action steps you will accomplish TODAY Do this before you go to sleep the night before   Example: Goal : Reduce belly measurement by 3 inches   That breaks down to 1/4" per week - doable.   Daily actions steps : Consume less than 80 grams of carbs. Drink 6 cups of water. Workout     Example: Increase savings balance by $5,000 (year)   That is $1,250 for the quarter— $96/ week > $13.73/day   Daily Action steps: (Varies per individual) Be a Saver and not a Spender today Eat each meal at home >transfer $ from checking to savings     Review your own progress at the end of each day.   Example: Did I consume less than 80 grams of Carbs?   Yes? Check it off.  No? Be honest with yourself and write down what happened and what correction will do tomorrow in order to achieve your daily goal   Review your progress for the past week. This is SELF-accountability   This is important! There will be failures, missed goals, but they can be improved/corrected for the next week!   List your wins (activities completed) List what needs to be improved next week.       Resources and Links: Best Self Journal   Panda Journal   Michael Hyatt's Full Focus Journal         Improve Your Faith and Finances:   Clarify a measurable 13-week goal, or two, then break your action steps to weekly and daily targets. Review your own progress each night before you go to bed, then at the end of each week.   Share Your Thoughts: If you have a question or comment about today's topic, we invite you to share your thoughts.
