Podcasts about Break the Rules

A sermon for the Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost preached at the campus ministry service for the St. Thomas Aquinas Episcopal Campus Ministry at West Virginia UniversityFocus Text: Luke 16:19-31; 1 Timothy 6:6-19“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” (Matthew 25:40)“If you cannot recognize Christ in the beggar, you will not find Him in the Chalice.” (St. John Chrysostom) “You don't see many hearses pulling Uhauls.” (Liz LaMoreaux)“He who dies with the most toys doesn't win, he dies.” (Unknown)All of these quotes have something to say about the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus in conjunction with St. Paul's oft misquoted statement, “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.” Take it all together, and it has a whole lot to say about each of us and how we choose to live our lives, how we set priorities, and who to what we ultimately devote ourselves to — God or some other alternative.There's not much to say here. Just listen.

In this episode, Jim welcomes the extraordinary Chris Prefontaine, founder of Smart Real Estate Coach, for a deep dive into the mindset, structure, and discipline required to build financial freedom through creative real estate investing. Prefontaine shares lessons from the 2008 crash, explains why coaching matters, and offers practical pathways for people looking to break free from traditional financial systems and build sustainable wealth. 3 Key Takeaways: Creative real estate is a discipline, not a tactic. Chris outlines a three-step approach to real estate success. Coaching is about accountability, not just motivation. Real transformation comes from daily tracking, public accountability, and consistent feedback—not from a one-time seminar. Cash flow > Nest eggs. Chris and Jim challenge conventional retirement thinking, offering examples of individuals who liquidated 401(k)s and replaced stagnant savings with income-producing assets.

In this episode, I explore the importance of giving yourself permission to adapt to summer's natural rhythm. Summer brings a natural shift in energy that can feel both liberating and disorienting, especially for those of us who thrive on structure. I discuss how summer invites us to loosen our grip on rigid schedules and embrace a more playful approach to life. I share my personal experiences of missing a podcast deadline and adapting my puppies sleeping arrangements that made me realize that sometimes the disruption of routine is exactly what we need.

It was marketed as a voyage for the boldest among us - a ticket to the bottom of the world, where only a handful of humans had ever dared to go. But what began as a high-tech adventure turned into an unthinkable tragedy, and at the center of it all was one man: Stockton Rush. He called it innovation. Critics called it recklessness. And five people would pay the ultimate price. In this series, we're diving deep into the story behind the Titan submersible disaster. From the birth of OceanGate and Stockton Rush's obsession with rewriting the rules of deep-sea exploration, to ignored warnings, missing safety certifications, and a catastrophic implosion that sent shockwaves across the globe. Who was Stockton Rush- visionary pioneer or dangerous idealist? What happened in the final hours of the Titan's descent? And how did a vessel built for discovery become a tomb in the dark silence of the Atlantic? This is not just a story about engineering failure; it's a story about ego, ambition, and the fatal cost of a man with a god complex who gambled with human lives in the name of legacy.

Joe Longo invites you into a powerful reflection on permission—not the kind we wait for from bosses, parents, or gatekeepers, but the kind we give ourselves.

Does your self-care routine ever feel like one more obligation?In this episode of SelfKind — a podcast for the highly sensitive and/or neurodivergent person — I, host Erica Webb, share a personal story about following a rigid meditation practice (that I actually signed a contract to commit to!). The 'discipline' of this practice ultimately felt unkind and unsuited to my unique needs and in this episode I'm sharing why it's ok to break the rules around self-care to find practices that actually resource you.

This week we're tackling the wonderfully niche concept of anti-rock. Or more specifically, we're trying to work out what the hell it actually is, why Google doesn't seem to know either, and how it connects to everything from Frank Zappa taking the piss out of The Beatles to bands who are so talented they deliberately make themselves sound rubbish. Chris has dragged poor Mark and our resident punk professor Ferro down a rabbit hole that starts with French composers banging bits of concrete in the 1940s and somehow ends up at US Maple, a band that sounds like they're actively trying to annoy you. Along the way we encounter Captain Beefheart's deliberately mental Trout Mask Replica, The Residents being mysterious weirdos in eyeball masks, and Suicide essentially inventing electronic music with what amounts to a homemade fuzz box. We get properly stuck into the prehistory of experimental music, from Pierre Schaeffer's musique concrète through to the New York art scene of the 1970s. Our main thesis is that anti-rock isn't just noise for the sake of it - it's what happens when genuinely skilled musicians decide to systematically tear apart rock conventions from the inside. Think of it as punk's more cerebral, art school cousin who's read too much Derrida. This is part one of three. Next week we'll tackle the No Wave explosion in late 70s New York, and part three will finally explain why US Maple exist and why anyone would voluntarily listen to them. We also touch on Glenn Branca's guitar symphonies, Pere Ubu's Cleveland weirdness, and try to work out why some of the most influential experimental music came from artists who could absolutely play it straight if they wanted to. Spoiler: they definitely didn't want to.

In fashion, there's this idea called "The Wrong Shoe Theory" and somehow, that choice shows confidence. Intention. Personality. In music, and really any creative field, we're taught the rules, but no one reminds us to break them. And without breaking the rules, you'll never find your voice. You'll just be a well-behaved echo. In this episode, Sarah and I talk about fashion, creativity, confidence, and what it means to actually own your weird. Because the wrong shoe might be the right move.

What if the traits you've been told are disadvantages are actually your “unfair” advantages? In this episode, Dan Sullivan and engineer-turned-ADHD-advocate André Brisson reveal how entrepreneurs thrive by rewriting the rules—not following them. Learn why your unique way of thinking is your greatest asset and how to build a business (and life) that rewards it. Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:Why entrepreneurs feel like misfits in traditional learning environments.The program that helps high-achieving ADHD entrepreneurs understand themselves better.The surprising truth about who The Strategic Coach® Program was designed for.Why Strategic Coach® members instantly “get” each other (and how this community transforms isolation into confidence).How André built an engineering firm that breaks industry norms.How André's ADHD has fueled his biggest challenges—and his biggest wins.The #1 insight André learned in 14 years at Strategic Coach. Show Notes: Entrepreneurs are shortcut creators—your ability to bypass inefficiencies is what makes you invaluable. The systems that frustrate you exist because most people prioritize rules over results. The real trick for entrepreneurs is to break the rules and get paid for the shortcuts they create. Everything that works in your life is the result of having created a new solution for yourself. If things don't work, it's because you're trying to fit into someone else's system. What you do and the way you do it is the center of your life, and you can keep expanding that throughout your entire career. Your Unique Ability® isn't just what you're good at—it's what energizes you while delivering exponential value. Once you decide that the way you do something is the right way for you to do it, you'll find the customers and clients who appreciate that. If you've been trained to do things a certain way, you might get stuck in that way of solving problems. As long as you're continually hitting a new Ceiling of Complexity™, you know you're growing. Freeing up your time to work at a higher level is a lot of fun. Underutilized and overutilized strengths are actually weaknesses. Resources:The Impulsive Thinker™Kolbe A™ IndexCliftonStrengths®PRINT®Unique Ability®

All's fair in love and war—and sales. At the end of the day, what really matters is whether the deal closed or if you were left holding the bag.  Did you make quota this quarter? Did you crush your numbers? Or did you fall short? If you missed quota, chances are you played it too safe. You followed the so-called 'best practices'—the ones that average reps cling to. Top performers don't just follow the playbook. They know when to bend the rules, take calculated risks, and do what it takes to win. Be a Pattern Breaker The greatest don't stick to rules and expectations. They forge their own path in a sea of conformity. They constantly reinvent themselves and their practices to push boundaries and find new ways to win. What you won't see is an elite sales rep following the same script day after day and struggling to escape mediocrity. As venture capitalist Mike Maples Jr. put it on this week's Sales Gravy Podcast, “People who are winning are the ones who change the rules and tell people how to think about it.” Now's the time to shake up your own sales routine and adopt the practices of Ultra High Performers. Fanatically Prospect You don't have an option—prospect every day, or get left behind. The pipe is life. If you're not feeding it, you're starving. Fanatical prospectors don't just carve out time—they demand it. Every single day. You make calls, period. Distractions? They don't exist.  But too many sales reps think they need to follow traditional suggestions: Prioritize research over calls; call when you think your prospects will be available; warm leads up with social touches and emails. These “rules” are screaming to be broken. There's no room in sales to avoid cold calling. The telephone is still the single most powerful weapon you have when it comes to selling. Sure, the norm is to hate cold calling, avoid the phone, and send out dozens of emails because it's easy. Rule breakers don't do easy—they're on the phone every day. The best reps value prospecting and know that—even when they're closing deals—they need to be watching out for tomorrow. Mediocre reps make fewer calls, qualify fewer prospects, and close fewer deals. Don't be mediocre.  Ruthlessly Disqualify; Pursue Those Who Will Buy Never waste your time on a prospect who simply won't pull the trigger. There are lots of tire kickers out there who will intentionally or unintentionally waste your time. Recognize early the deals that will never be done. Most sales reps chase every lead because they're told to ‘always be closing.' The best reps break that rule by disqualifying early. Be intentional in your discovery; ask all pertinent questions before spending precious time wooing a lead.  You don't have time to find out weeks down the road that your prospect wasn't the decision maker or that there's no budget for the deal. You can even disqualify before you start prospecting. When generating cold calling lists, zero in on a subset of your market that is most likely to buy—don't squander energy parsing through every single business simply to tell your boss you called everyone.  Jerome, a media rep in Texas, covered all of Austin. Instead of cold calling tens of thousands of businesses, he zeroed in on the ones most likely to be in the market for his services and who could afford them. He weaned out businesses that weren't strictly his target demographic and saved himself thousands of useless calls.  Break the norm by cutting deadweight fast. Play the Long Game  Mediocre reps make useless calls and let the fear of annoying prospects sabotage their follow up game.  Forget the outdated advice about not being ‘too persistent.' Elite pros break that rule and keep showing up until they hear ‘yes' or ‘no.' They bend the rules of social niceties (i.e. don't annoy your prospect) and keep calling, no matter how long it takes. Xant found that 50% of sales happen after the 5th follow-up,

Sometimes we overlook the ends, because we're so focused on the means.Today in marketing, that means can be algorithms and machine-built lookalike audiences and automations.But as our latest guest explained in her podcast guest application, all that technology doesn't matter if you don't focus on the right ends: “It's all about the story – and it needs to include empathy.”To hear the story behind that lesson, along with many more lesson-filled stories, I sat down with Carmen Collins, director of social media, Generac [https://www.generac.com/].Generac is a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange and reported $4.3 billion in net sales for 2024.

I have a confession to make: I've diluted my brand message, my brand style, and my brand voice - unintentionally, inadvertently. I've been sensing this for at least a year, but I've kept powering through, creating new podcast episodes, sending emails, posting on LinkedIn, like the proverbial hamster on the wheel, churning out content that was good and valuable and useful - but that I knew was missing a spark. And then a few weeks ago, after the in-person speaking workshop we held in Orlando, one of the women who attended said to me, “You know, you and Diane are really fun and funny and personable - and I hadn't realized that until I was with you at the workshop. You come across very buttoned up on your website, but you're not.” And she was right.  These activities - podcast episodes, emails, LinkedIn posts - have become a bit of a compulsion and a crutch. A crutch because telling myself I have to do these things every week has let me off the hook of doing other things I want to do but that are bigger, bolder, scarier, out of my comfort zone. Are you also feeling stuck or stagnant, bored and burnt out creating the same-old content?  Or maybe you're enjoying the content you're creating and the topics you speak about, but you've hit a plateau. Your business isn't growing, speaking opportunities aren't growing, and most importantly you're not growing. Your business and opportunities will only grow if you're stretching and growing yourself. In order to do that, we have to break some rules; rules that make us feel safe, comfortable, and validated. Now, I'm not really a rule follower, I call myself a rule-bender. This is why I'm always thinking and looking at ways to challenge the status quo. In this episode, you'll hear 3 rules you should consider breaking and why and how to do it. I also have a big change, a rule I'm breaking, that I'll share with you at the end, along with the ways you can work with us in 2025.   Links: Show notes at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/423/  Join our email newsletter: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/join/  Enroll in our online Thought Leader Academy: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/academy/  Attend our 1-day 10x Your Speaking workshop in Orlando: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/workshop/  Join us at our B.O.L.D.

Learn when to break the rules and when to follow them. Generally, you follow the rules, but not always. When to Break the Rules: Increase Speed & Decrease Costs In many industries and organizations, there are general guidelines, rules, or ways of doing things. You may learn, early on, that generally, for example, employees should have one manager only or that you should never divide your forces in the face of a larger force. Great victories and advantages, however, lie in consciously not following these rules. For start up companies, your advantages over larger companies come from nimbleness and low costs. When you start your business, you are the technician, the manager, and the owner. You wear all the hats. You will hire employees, and they will begin to take some of those hats. Do not, however, force your people and processes under principles that slow you down or increase your costs. As you scale, you will reach higher level nodes where payroll will increase. As you do this, profitability may decrease as you take on more people, but then it will improve as you improve and grow at that node. Move fast and move cheap. Know when to break the rules and knowingly break them for the good of your business (when it makes sense). PS - This podcast is brought to you by TurnKey Coach.

How Navy SEALs and Entrepreneurs Bend & Break the Rules for Results! Get a job at any business and the first thing you are told is the rules. "This is how we do things here." As we age we get even more rule oriented. Less dreaming, less risk taking, less creative thinking, and God forbid that you should challenge convention. The fact is we are a rules driven society. The fact is those that disagree with you, want to impose their rules on YOU, so you will do as they say and wish. And yes the military has a set of established rules, but one thing that may surprise you is when you are in "unconventional warfare" units, like the Navy SEALs you have to take a more unconventional, creative approach. And yes, even at times the rules of warfare are completely thrown out the window. How about you? Are you willing to "break" the rules of the game? How about "bend" the rules? Or maybe ignoring them altogether so you can achieve real results? On this episode of A New Direction Retired Navy SEAL Marty Strong joins me to get outside of the norm, disrupt standard thinking and embrace change, and bolster creativity. Marty's book, "Be Different: How Navy SEALs and Entrepreneurs Bend, Break, or Ignore the Rules to Get Results!" is a mindset changer. Marty Strong takes examples of his different roles as a Navy SEAL combat veteran, and instructor, and his different roles as a Business owner and Entrepreneur and trains us how to start thinking differently. And that is the crux of this book.  Think differently, and in order to think differently one must think creatively. To begin thinking creatively Marty Strong gives us the history of how it is against our norm to think differently.  We have been conditioned and trained to live by rules, to be obedient.  Not make waves. However, it is in our wave making creative thinking where we will find the greatest results.  It is where your profits will be.  It is where life takes on purpose and meaning. Marty also cautions however, that when you start thinking differently, and take action on your thinking get ready for "blowback".  Get ready for the "naysayers".  Get ready to be shunned.  You will need a thick skin. At the end of it all when your thinking and action is different it is where you will find your authenticity and success.  I highly recommend this book!
