In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly introduce an interesting idea. You are two people in one. There is the do'er you and there is the observer you. John points out that this is a powerful way to look at your life from a 30,000 foot view. And it is particularly appropriate for someone doing the think it be it 12 minute a day methodology. That's the case because the observer you took the life GPS template and with the conscious mind created your desired life. Exactly the person you want to be, exactly what you want to accomplish, and precisely how you're going to achieve your clearly defined goals. Again, all conscious mind involving the observer you.Then for 12 minutes a day, when you read your life GPS template, you got everybody on the team together at the same time. The life GPS template is instructing the doer side of you on exactly what you want done. Giving all the specifics. But while you are reading your life GPS template, the observer you is also evaluating it. Deciding if there's any tweaks to it. And factoring in that the observer you actually created the life GPS template and customized it to your unique life. When you really think about this idea it really puts your life in perspective. And more than anything else, at the end of that you're really an observer of your life. When we talk about who YOU are, you're really the observer of your life. Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

Construction BD expert Ken Harms joins me to break down the rise of the Doer–Seller model — a relationship-driven approach where project managers and superintendents help win work by serving clients, asking better questions, and building long-term trust. We unpack how owners' expectations have shifted, why the rainmaker era is over, how to train introverted technical pros to engage confidently, and why firms that ignore this model will be trapped in low-bid work. If you want more negotiated work, more repeat clients, and teams who know how to build trust on and off the job, this episode delivers the roadmap.

Notice your patterns. If you over-do, over-give, over-function or over-explain, takers see that as an invitation. Not because you are weak. Because you are reliable. Start noticing where you go past your own limits.   Get honest about what drains you. Your time. Your money. Your emotional labor. Your peace. Clarity is power.   You cannot fix everyone. You cannot rescue everyone. You cannot be the emotional first responder for adults who refuse to carry their own weight. Do not keep giving to people who keep taking.  Choose reciprocity.   Invest your best energy in people who pour back, listen well, and honor your space.Support the show

Ever suggest something new at work only to hear "that's just how we do things here" and watch the energy completely deflate? Yeah, we've all been there. This week, we're chatting with Wade Kingsley about breaking free from status quo thinking and actually getting your ideas heard without being shut down or laughed at (been there too). Wade breaks down why most workplaces are set up to reward playing it safe, how to identify whether you're a Dreamer, Doer, or Doubter on your team, and the genius strategy of testing ideas in kitchen conversations before you pitch them to the boss. Plus, we dive into why creativity isn't about having the most artistic job - it's about getting curious and asking "but what if we tried this instead?" when everyone else just accepts the way things are. What you'll learn: The Three Creative Types and why your team needs all of them (spoiler: it's not just about the big idea people) Why you should never pitch your brilliant idea to the boss first - and who to talk to instead The 'Five Whys' technique for getting to the real problem (not just what's on the surface) How to frame risky ideas as "experiments" so people actually want to try them The art of separating brainstorming from reality-checking so ideas don't get killed instantly How to build creative confidence even when you've been shot down before Our new BIZ hosts are Lisa Lie - a former Head of People & Culture and Organisational Coach - and Mamamia’s Em Vernem.

Most business owners start their companies for freedom, but end up becoming prisoners of their own success. They spend every day putting out fires, managing people, and juggling tasks that drain their energy. What if the secret to growth wasn't working harder—but working less? In this episode of The Better Than Rich Show, Mike Abramowitz sits down with Derek Fredrickson, founder of The COO Solution, who helps entrepreneurs scale by installing systems, empowering people, and freeing up owners to lead instead of do. Derek's story of moving his family to France while building a thriving remote business is proof that operational excellence creates life freedom. Timestamps: [00:00] Meet Derek Fredrickson. [02:00] The evolution of the show and audience focus. [04:00] What a COO really does for business owners. [07:00] From doer to operator to owner.

[37:00] Building trust with your team. [43:00] How to sustain accountability. [46:00] The power of transparency and feedback. [52:00] Defining “Better Than Rich.” Key Quotes: “Good people don't fix broken systems; broken systems break good people.” “To grow, you actually need to work less.” “Trust isn't given; it's built through clarity, accountability, and small wins.” “You can't scale chaos. You can only scale what's clear and consistent.” “Being better than rich means having time for what matters most.” Key Takeaways: Shift from Doer to Owner. Delegate with Trust. Fix the System First.

In this episode, we dig into a shift I think is non-negotiable in today's AI-first world: you must become the director, not the doer. Inspired by Dan Martell's framework, we explore how AI should handle the execution — while you define the outcome, set constraints, and bring the human edge.I introduce the three pillars that separate average from exceptional direction: Vision, Taste & Care. You'll hear how I use them in real-world workflows, the traps I fell into trying to do everything myself, and a few tactical moves (prompts, boundaries, feedback loops) that helped me step up.If you feel like you're driving but still stuck doing all the work — this one's for you.

Or why everyone tells you to "just relax" when your mind won't stop spinning?After years of helping people manage anxiety, I've discovered something crucial: we've been treating anxiety like it's one-size-fits-all, when it's actually as unique as your fingerprint.In this episode, I break down the 4 distinct anxiety navigation styles:THE THINKER - You analyze everything, searching for the "why" behind every anxious moment. Your brain processes those 60,000 daily thoughts by dissecting each one.THE DOER - You can't sit still when anxiety hits. You clean, exercise, organize - anything to channel that energy into productive action.THE FEELER - You dive deep into emotions, absorbing the energy of everyone around you while processing feelings on a profound level.THE DREAMER - You escape into imagination, books, creativity, and rich inner worlds when anxiety becomes overwhelming.Here's the truth: there's nothing wrong with your natural way of handling anxiety. You're not broken because meditation doesn't work for you. You're simply working with a different operating system.WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER:Research-backed strategies tailored to your specific navigation styleWhy traditional anxiety advice might not work for youThe 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique for ThinkersHow to channel anxiety energy purposefully as a Doer"Name it to Tame It" strategies for FeelersReality check techniques for DreamersHow to become the captain of your own ship toward calmer watersTAKE THE FREE QUIZ: https://forms.gle/D1g1p3S7PXEPUaj48Discover your personal anxiety navigation style and get a customized toolkit of strategies that actually work for your unique brain.TIMESTAMPS:0:00 Introduction - Why anxiety strategies fail2:30 The Thinker - Analysis and overthinking6:15 The Doer - Action-based anxiety management10:45 The Feeler - Emotional processing and empathy15:20 The dreamer - Creative escape and imagination19:30 Your personalized toolkit22:00 Taking the quiz and next stepsRemember: your anxiety isn't your enemy.

Episode 275: Learn how to stop talking and start doing what you need to do to accomplish your goals and dreams.  Become a Doer!   You will learn three practical tips to get you moving in the right direction.    We all know someone who spends more time talking about their ambitions than actually pursuing them. Maybe that someone is you. You have big plans, great intentions, incredible dreams, and big goals, but the first step feels so intimidating that you stay stuck in the planning—or worse, the talking—stage.     Here's the truth: taking action is what separates dreamers or talkers from those who do, the Doers. Ideas alone don't change lives; action does. If you're ready to stop talking about what you want to accomplish and start making it happen, here are three practical tips to get you moving in the right direction.     1. Start Small, But Start Now   The vision of a complete goal can be overwhelming. Whether you want to write a book, start a podcast, launch a business, or run your first marathon, the weight of everything that needs to happen can cause you to hesitate before starting. Start small, but start now.     Picture this: someone who dreams of running a marathon might spend weeks researching the perfect shoes, the best training plan. But someone serious about running gets up, laces any pair of sneakers they own, and runs for five minutes today. That's the difference.     What's one small action you can take right now? It could be as simple as making a phone call to a potential client, starting a wellness plan, or dedicating 10 minutes every day doing something that brings you closer to your dreams. Action creates momentum. 2. Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable   Taking action often brings on some level of anxiety. You might be scared, inexperienced, or unsure if you're doing it right. That discomfort can stop you in your tracks if you don't learn to embrace it.     Think of a baby learning to walk. They fall, stumble, and wobble—but they keep moving. They don't analyze their technique or wait until they've watched 10 tutorial videos on walking mechanics. They try, fall, and improve. They make progress, and so can you.    You'll probably feel uncomfortable as you start moving toward your dreams, and that's okay. No one has all the answers when they begin. By acting despite the uncertainty, you'll gain confidence and skills over time. Some of the best lessons come from trying and figuring things out as you go.   3. Keep Your Goals to Yourself It's tempting to announce your ambitions to everyone. Telling people you're going to start a podcast, create better health, or change careers gives you an instant dopamine hit of approval—and that approval can sometimes rewire your brain into feeling like you've already accomplished the goal.   Instead, keep your plans to yourself and share them only with those who can support you, with energy to make progress, not just promises.     Do the work when no one else is watching. When you say less and do more, your actions will speak volumes over time. For example, imagine quietly working on your fitness goals and shocking everyone six months later by showing up stronger, faster, and healthier. That feeling?       I encourage you to write down your goals, keep them private, and focus your intention and attention on progress. Don't worry about impressing others with your plans; impress yourself by sticking with the process.     Dreams without action are just wishes. It's not enough to dream about writing a book, creating your podcast, launching a business, or running a marathon. You must take consistent steps toward achieving those aspirations. It will change how you see yourself. Change the phrase Seeing is Believing to Believing is seeing! You believe in what you're doing!   If you have found yourself in the "someday" phase, today is the day to break free. Start small, push through the discomfort, and focus on doing, not just dreaming. The future you're imagining is waiting—and it starts with the step you take today.       If someone can benefit from this, please share it with them.     Until Next time, take the steps to becoming a Doer!     Connect with Lisa: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathal/ http://threewordmeetings.com http://threewordpodcast   Three Word Meeting Book - Buy Here!      

Ever suggest something new at work only to hear "that's just how we do things here" and watch the energy completely deflate? Yeah, we've all been there. This week, we're chatting with Wade Kingsley about breaking free from status quo thinking and actually getting your ideas heard without being shut down or laughed at (been there too). Wade breaks down why most workplaces are set up to reward playing it safe, how to identify whether you're a Dreamer, Doer, or Doubter on your team, and the genius strategy of testing ideas in kitchen conversations before you pitch them to the boss. Plus, we dive into why creativity isn't about having the most artistic job - it's about getting curious and asking "but what if we tried this instead?" when everyone else just accepts the way things are. What you'll learn: The Three Creative Types and why your team needs all of them (spoiler: it's not just about the big idea people) Why you should never pitch your brilliant idea to the boss first - and who to talk to instead The 'Five Whys' technique for getting to the real problem (not just what's on the surface) How to frame risky ideas as "experiments" so people actually want to try them The art of separating brainstorming from reality-checking so ideas don't get killed instantly How to build creative confidence even when you've been shot down before Our new BIZ hosts are Lisa Lie - a former Head of People & Culture and Organisational Coach - and Mamamia’s Em Vernem.
