Are you leveraging your entrepreneurial company's unique advantage? In this episode, Shannon Waller reveals how, by getting your team to focus on activities where they have both superior skill and passion, you can ensure your business is always growing, always innovating, and always multiplying its success—and eliminate boredom and stagnation for good. Download Episode Transcript Show Notes: Entrepreneurial companies have a distinct advantage over bureaucratic organizations because of their flexibility, innovative spirit, and capacity to cultivate a culture that prioritizes individual strengths and passions over conformity and rigid ways of thinking. This culture is founded on the Unique Ability® model, which consists of four levels: incompetent, competent, excellent, and unique capabilities, with unique being the most impactful. Here's what they mean: Incompetent: These tasks are areas where team members struggle to achieve results, often leading to negative impacts. Entrepreneurial companies can minimize time spent on these activities, allowing them to concentrate on more productive endeavors. Competent: While team members may perform adequately in these areas, they often only meet minimum standards. In bureaucratic settings, employees may feel compelled to remain in this zone due to comfort and familiarity, but this does not foster growth or innovation. Excellent: At this level, team members demonstrate superior skills, leading to effective teamwork and often financial rewards. However, remaining in this zone for too long can result in stagnation, as people may become bored and less engaged. Unique: This is where the true potential lies. Areas of Unique Ability combine superior skill with passion, resulting in high energy, motivation, and creativity. Entrepreneurial companies have the opportunity to help their teams focus on these abilities, which can lead to significant competitive advantages If you want to maximize your company's potential for success and innovation, strive to have at least 50% of your team's time spent in their Unique Ability and the other 50% on excellent abilities. It's also important to eliminate tasks that fall under the "incompetent" category, as these activities cost your company money and limit productivity. Procrastination on certain tasks is a sign of incompetence in that area, even if the person technically has the capability to do it. To prevent team members from boredom and stagnation, move them away from merely competent tasks as quickly as possible. Be aware of the "Excellence Trap," where team members become too comfortable in their superior skills and resist moving toward their Unique Ability. It's essential for entrepreneurs to foster a company culture that encourages and rewards Unique Ability® Teamwork, as this is where the 10x multiplier effect occurs in terms of productivity and innovation. To help shift your team members toward working in their areas of Unique Ability, it's important to regularly engage in conversations with them about what they excel at and love doing. Even minor incompetent tasks can consume significant mental energy. Freeing team members from these tasks is essential for maximizing productivity and creativity. It's important to create flexible systems and job descriptions that allow team members to focus on their excellent and unique capabilities, even if it means creating unconventional role structures.

In this episode, Shannon Waller talks about the dangers of the “Excellent Trap.” Are there activities you have superior skills but no passion for? Are you bored with them but resisting having someone else take them on? Let Shannon convince you why you should let go of these “Excellent,” but not “Unique Ability,” activities. Shannon has useful advice on how to identify the activities, when it's time to let them go, and who to hand them off to. Download Episode Transcript Show Notes Signs To Look Out For: Loss of passion: If you find yourself going through the motions without the same level of excitement or interest as before, it could be a sign that you've outgrown the activity. Boredom and lack of challenge: Activities that were once stimulating may become routine and unchallenging over time, leading to lack of interest. Others who show skill and energy: Pay attention to people around you who show a keen interest in the tasks you excel at but no longer feel passionate about. These individuals may bring fresh ideas and creativity to the table. Benefits Of Passing Off Tasks: New perspectives: Allowing someone else to take over tasks can bring in new perspectives and innovative approaches that you may not have considered. Freeing up time: By delegating tasks that no longer fire you up, you free up time to focus on activities that engage your creativity and align with and help you grow your Unique Ability®. Team growth: Passing off tasks can also contribute to the growth and development of your team members, providing them with opportunities to showcase their skills and creativity. Steps To Take: Self-reflection: Identify Excellent activities where you have superior skill but lack passion. For comparison, also make a list of your Unique Ability activities, those you find endlessly fascinating and motivating. Pick one or two Excellent activities to let go of. Identifying potential candidates: Keep an eye out for individuals within your team or network who exhibit enthusiasm and creativity in the areas you are considering passing off. Initiating conversations: Approach potential candidates and discuss the possibility of them taking over the tasks. Observe their reactions and eagerness to explore these responsibilities. Transition planning: Once you find a suitable candidate, plan a smooth transition of responsibilities, ensuring that the handover is seamless and well-communicated. Conclusion: Recognizing when to pass off activities where you excel but lack passion is a crucial step toward personal growth and team development. By entrusting tasks to individuals with a fresh perspective and enthusiasm, you not only free yourself from mundane (to you!) responsibilities but also foster a culture of collaboration and growth within your team. Embracing this mindset of delegation and empowerment can lead to enhanced creativity, efficiency, and overall success in both personal and professional endeavors.

The world has become more competitive, and many people are focused on the concept of fairness. In this episode, business coaches Dan Sullivan and Shannon Waller explain what fairness really means and what every entrepreneur needs to understand to avoid certain dangers.Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:The different definitions of “fairness.”Why you shouldn't compare yourself to others.How there's a touch of envy in talking about fairness.How to recognize your uniqueness and avoid false comparisons.Show Notes:No one knows what it's like to be someone else.Who you are can be modified by who other people are.Reactive and creative are opposites.The word “fairness” is a fairly recent creation.The present understanding of fairness touches on equality.Fairness is a social term, not a descriptive term.A lot in our world supports the fact that things should be fair.Uniqueness means looking inside and knowing who you are.If you're looking for fairness, you can't find out who you are.Resources:“Geometry” For Staying Cool & Calm by Dan SullivanCliftonStrengths®ENVY: A Theory of Social Behaviour by Helmut SchoeckWho Not How by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin HardyThe Gap And The Gain by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy10x Is Easier Than 2x by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin HardyUnique Ability®Unique Ability® 2.0: Discovery by Catherine Nomura, Julia Waller, and Shannon WallerThe Kolbe A™ Index

Every entrepreneur would love to be able to predict the future, but of course it's impossible. The future is always being created by every human being on the planet every day making guesses and bets about their individual future. There's no way of understanding or even detecting what kind of guesses and bets eight billion people are making today, when they weren't even thinking about it yesterday. In this episode, business coaches Dan Sullivan and Shannon Waller explain the importance of understanding why it's all about guessing and betting, and how you can make the best guesses and bets for business success and business growth in your future.Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:Why we'll never get beyond technology just being reactive.Why artificial intelligence is based on the past, not the future.The big bet that Dan and Babs made before starting The Strategic Coach® Program in 1989.How to find team members you don't have to manage, monitor, or motivate.Show Notes:Humans have always had a desire to predict the future.Technology can't be superior to the human thinking that goes into it.An entrepreneur betting on something means they commit their time, their activity, and in some cases, their money to a particular activity.People have far more freedom on an individual basis now than they did a century ago.Individual team members need to take themselves at least as seriously as management does.Predictions are just guessing and betting based on what's happened up until now.You're making a guess and a bet when you hire a team member.If you look into how a technology is created, you know what to expect from it and what not to expect.A great team member has to be great at what they do and great at playing with others.Some people strive for a role they aren't good at because in their minds it has higher status.Resources:Unique AbilityCapitalism—And Everything Else by Dan SullivanThe Self-Managing Company by Dan SullivanUnique Ability® 2.0: Discovery by Catherine Nomura, Julia Waller, and Shannon WallerMultiplication By Subtraction by Shannon Waller

There are many facets of living a life of well-being. A lot goes into that recipe. One often overlooked, but key ingredient is congruency. What does it mean to be congruent, and how does it contribute to one’s state of well-being?Congruency in this context is all about alignment. It is living and being fully aligned with what is true for each of us. That is, in alignment with who we are as our human persona as well as living in alignment with our spiritual persona.Behaving, speaking, thinking… and living each moment in congruency with one’s beliefs and values will almost assure one of a sense of being well. Look at your life. How are you living? Do you know what is and what isn’t congruent for you? To your life of well-being!Mark What We Discuss:A little back story from Mark’s battle with self-worth after what he felt was an embarrassing experience Defining congruencyHow do we see ourselves?What tools can we use to better understand ourselves?Who are we?Are we our name? Are we our body? Is there a duality of self?

If you're a business leader, employee happiness should never be your goal. Sound strange? That's according to today’s Brand Builder guest, David Hassell. David is a serial entrepreneur and the CEO and founder of 15five, software that makes continuous employee feedback simple, and helps drive high-performing cultures. We talked to David about a wide range of subjects, but what we found most interesting was his belief that the goal of his product is not to make employees happy, but to help them become their best selves, and ultimately to create an environment where they can perform at their highest level. 15five's product and philosophy has been a huge hit with enterprises of all sizes, and they recently closed a $30.7M series B round.  We think you'll find David's point of view highly valuable - especially since we know a lot of you are working with remote employees and need an efficient feedback loop, or just want to empower your team to direct their own personal and professional growth.  Takeaways David tells us how he discovered the concept of 15five, and why he decided to create a company around the practice. David stresses the importance of having a purpose in one’s work, and tells us why he struggled with starting the right company before landing on the idea for 15five. David explains why he thinks the term “Human Resources” should be phased out immediately. David breaks down the difference between eustress and distress, and explains why discomfort actually breeds innovation. David clarifies that the goal of your organization shouldn’t be happiness, but high performance, and explains why. David tells us the most important trait he looks for when interviewing potential employees, and gives us his strategies to help find people willing to experience personal breakthroughs. David explains why he thinks money is a threshold, and tells us what motivates people once that threshold is achieved.

The learning curves of business growth can be difficult, but it was something we truly enjoyed overcoming together. We were seeing some success and hiring staff to keep things on track. In this episode, we continue where we left off and cover the next seasons of our lives. We’ll take you from building our business to selling it off, and where we are today. Highlights From Our Conversation [0:50] Part 2 of our life story [3:10] Started selling off some properties and “rehabbing” others [10:15] We realized we are not operators and managers [16:36] Wins, pains and lessons learned [20:33] We sold remaining properties and started to simplify life [23:20] Where our journey to clarity started [29:50] “Spring cleaning” and work transitions [38:00] Brought everything in house and hired top tier players [43:00] What our lives look like and why we do what we do Business growth was our catalyst for change As our business continued to grow and we hired more staff we began selling off some of the properties we had been holding and making some decent profit. We dabbled in renovating and flipping houses, which was a whole new world we had to learn. We also purchased an 18-unit rental property and built our portfolio to over 90 units. This time period was hard on us and we went through a lot of ups and downs. We took a vacation to Greece and Italy for a month. In that time we also moved offices and purchased a home that was a fixer upper. Trying to hire and train multiple people and having them slip through the cracks was wearing us out. Listen on as we talk about how we realized it was time to make some serious changes. Give yourself permission to live your life differently As ironic as it is with us working in real estate, we did not like being homeowners. We hated the maintenance, the work and inconvenience of it. So we took a huge step, ignored what anyone else might think, and sold our home. From here on out, any time we haven’t been satisfied with our environment, we move somewhere else. At this point in time we found a place right behind our office that made life so much more convenient. We learned a lot about what worked for us and what didn’t. Most of all, we learned that we didn’t have to fit into a box someone else had created for us. But we didn’t know what that meant for us yet. Ray was working all the time and I was home with our 4-month-old daughter. Despite not being involved in the everyday work of the business, I still heard about the ups and downs every single day. The business was no longer serving us, but we were serving it. Keep listening as we discuss our biggest wins, paind, and what we’ve learned! Our transition into a simpler lifestyle where we found clarity We decided to transition out of our business as it was—we needed to let it go. We began to sell off rental properties and slowly let staff go as we eventually closed down our office. We made more of a profit on our work during this time closing this business then in the years we had been running it! We knew it was the right decision for us in this season. After the business was no longer consuming every bit of our lives, we realized how much we had let ourselves go. Our personal development had waned, and our relationship wasn’t as strong as it could be. Our journey towards clarity really began here. We began investing in mastermind groups and reclaimed our health. Continue listening as we talk about another move, “spring cleaning”, and transitioning into a better business for us. The #1 reason why money does matter The growth of our business eventually led us to the realization that training and managing people just wasn’t for us. So we transitioned into our loan business, which gives us steady monthly cash-flow and more time to do the things we want. We believe that time is our most valuable asset and we are now able to use our time towards things like creating this podcast. Our passion lies in helping other people, especially couples, and somewhere along the way we had lost the ability to do so. Now we have time to take some of the money we’ve earned and invest it towards worthy pursuits. So often, people say that money doesn’t matter. But it does. Money allows us to make an impact, and leave a legacy for our daughter. Listen to the remainder of this episode as we talk about some ways we’ve recently used our newfound time and money, and encourage you to take steps to start living the life you desire.

Our intention was to bring thoughtful and soul-stirring content to help others along their journey.

In this final episode we summarize and reframe our process for you to discover your soulful, higher-self, leading to an inspired big and true vision through the art of asking the key questions of yourself.

How can you be happy raising kids? It’s a question I get asked often, especially since my wife and I are raising a large family. The truth is that you can read all the books by all the experts, but in the end you realize that each child is different, and you have to follow your own path and figure out your own style. Those rules don’t just apply to raising kids, but to achieving overall happiness in life. No one is happy ALL the time, but there are some guidelines to remember and follow to cultivate a happy and fulfilled life. When it comes down to it, don’t we all want more happiness?   In this episode, we learn:   Happiness is not about accumulating THINGS, but it’s who you get to share your things with that will make you happy Three buckets of happiness: Do the things that are physically challenging, because they reward your body AND your mind Do the things you love that contribute to others and make them better Do the things you are constantly hungry to learn and be challenged by The happiest people are those who are proactively pursuing a goal that creates feelings of wealth, abundance, achievement, and joy Don’t focus on your weaknesses, but go with what you enjoy and know you’re good at Key Happiness Takeaway: Your job in life is to find the thing that “lights you up,” that you do well, and then find ways to tie that into helping more people The best news about the three buckets is that YOU get to define them!   Episode Resources:   www.trafficmasterylive.com   Dan Sullivan, Strategic Coach   Unique Ability: Create the Life You Want by Catherine Nomura   Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari
