Fail quickly, fail early, fail often, fail forward. That's the secret. To be successful, you have to act and make mistakes. But the truth is that putting your skin in the game will help you gain traction and confidence. First, to move in a specific direction, you must create your own Ikigai. In this episode, I guide one of my coaching clients towards reframing negative thoughts and creating his own Ikigai to prevent analysis paralysis and start implementing changes. These are some of the topics covered in the session: - Mindset shifts are a competitive advantage- How to be a contrarian optimist- Believe about 80 % of all the material you consume- Take your level of action to 10X - Listen to your intuition and don't question it- Meditate on your Ikigai to find your true purpose Even though all these topics are explicitly connected with my client's life, I'm convinced you will find them valuable and easy to adopt. You don't want to miss this episode. So lock in, take notes and experience some of my behind-the-scenes coaching sessions. “Stop being pissed off and use it as a stepping stone to do what you wanna do.” - Dr. Vikram Raya In This Episode: - Welcome back to another episode of the Limitless MD podcast- Don't say: “It didn't work out” - It worked out for as long as you needed it to work out - Some people are comfortable in their uncomfortable realities - Doing soft coaching on other doctors - Mindset shifts are a competitive advantage - How to be a contrarian optimist - Believe about 80% of all the material you consume - Create your own principles and frameworks- Japanese concept of Ikigai and how to complete it - What are you willing to die for? - Doing the thing you hate doing is a stepping stone for doing what you love- Fail quickly, fail early, fail often, fail forward - Take your level of action to 10X- Don't listen to high-income/low-net worth people- Live below your means and invest 50% of your money in real estate- Be happy with what you have while keeping your eyes open for new opportunities- Sometimes your intellect can paralyze you and prevent you from taking action- Focusing on your ikigai to make the fear of failure disappear - Why investing in real estate makes sense - Listen to your intuition and don't question it - Find your highest value and analyze the five freedoms - Do the inner work in order to know who you areResources Mentioned: - Book “The 10X Mentor” by Grant Cardone - https://www.amazon.com/Audible-The-10X-Mentor/dp/B0B29NQNBS - Book “Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future” by Ashlee Vance - https://www.amazon.com/Elon-Musk-SpaceX-Fantastic-Future/dp/006230125X - Book “Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!” by Robert T.

Douglas shares his unique experience growing up with an entrepreneurial father, hustling his way into the photography industry as a college student, and the many people who have inspired his relationship with photography throughout his career.

He speaks on his photography side hustle he developed as a teenager, while noting why he decided to get a degree in advertising photography at RIT. He shares his candid thoughts on the benefits of going to photography school, touching on the most inspiring class he ever took, and whether you need to go to school to become a successful photographer.

On the eve of SpaceX's historic scheduled launch of its first human spaceflight mission — both the first ever by a private company, and the first to take place on American soil in nearly a decade — we tell the incredible story of its rise from ragtag rocket jocks to the most disruptive and advanced force in aerospace today. While much of the Musk spotlight has shone on Tesla in recent years, is SpaceX actually the company that will have the greatest impact on our world's future, and perhaps even other worlds beyond? All of a sudden that idea seems a little less crazy... Want more Acquired?

In this episode I catch up with Nicky Sparshott, Global Chief Executive of T2 Tea - a global luxury retailer offering the broadest and most imaginative range of teas and teawares from around the world. Nicky also serves as Vice President on the Global Leadership Team for Unilever's Refreshment Category, playing a lead role in M&A & E-Commerce. She also has experience on the agency side as a Partner at Y&R George Patterson (WPP Group). www.t2tea.com Key Points: “Be brave, because I think the world is changing quickly. What got us here won't get us there, and the best advice I would give to people is go after the dream, but perhaps also be prepared to take the path less trodden to get there, because I think it will hold you in good stead.” Nicky's top messages include: On what Nicky learnt from a major setback from a failed product launch: A couple of really small choices that we thought were small choices, had not been clever and we did not deep dive. These proved to be those chinks in the armour that really let us down, and it was an unmitigated disaster. Be sure to build the right stakeholder relationships outside of the business and leave no stone unturned. When someone asks, "Have you thought about X?" It might feel like an inconvenient truth, three days before you launch, but actually take the time to investigate. The importance of mentors is that you need to have a safe place where you can have those unfiltered sounding board conversations, where you can shoot the breeze, you can explore scenarios, where you're not personally judged for it. And you've got a relationship where someone can say, "Actually, that's not going work," or, "You need to hold yourself to account to a higher order". The value of those mentorships have been really, really important to me and I play a mentorship for many others, because I think you've got to pay it forward. My mindset is to aim for the moon and you might get the stars. I aim high and kind of go big or go home. You sort of play to do something extraordinary. It's important to practice service leadership, which is really paying it forward and recognising that there is no time better spent than in nurturing capability. Especially today, technology is such that things can be replicated with such pace that you need to have an amazing group of people and a culture that is sticky. Bryce Courtenay once said to me, “if you're skating on thin ice, you may as well tap dance." That really appealed to me. To push the boundaries, be courageous and go create some magic. Sometimes you'll get it wrong, but more often than not, you won't. I've taken the path less travelled at times in my career, much to the horror of some of my mentors and some of the people around me, but it's always felt right. Ask yourself, how do you differentiate yourself against a myriad of other people in the market? Because there's some great talent out there, some exceptionally good people. How are you going craft or curate a skillset and an experience list that is different? I write myself for the month, what are the big bets. If I do nothing but what's on this list for the next 30 days, will that create the impact that I want to create in the next 30 days? If it's not on that list, will I spend my time on it? At the end of every week I do a pulse check, "Is there something that has changed that would require me to change my focus?" Every month as a leadership team, we get together and not only measure performance to date and performance to go, but that performance in the context of our three-year plan. What are the risks? Are we investing in the right areas? If we have to dynamically allocate resources, where are we prioritising? Problem shared is a problem halved. There's so many things that we work on that feel hugely challenging and sometimes insurmountable, but the reality is somebody, or a number of people, are probably experiencing exactly the same thing, or have done so before. There are some brilliant people out there, so just getting around the table with other thought leaders, or people from different industries and taking the best practise that's happening in one industry, and being able to adapt it to your own. For me right now, mindset trumps capability quite often. You can have all the best capability in the world, you can be an amazing rock-star, but if you can't bring others on that journey with you, if you can't elevate the performance of the whole team, if you can't get past your own ego to deliver the results, then it'll just be really short lived. My council to anybody that's in a senior management role and aspiring to be in a CEO role, is to get that commercial understanding solid. If it doesn't come intuitively to you, get some mentors and some support in that space and certainly recruit a team that is incredibly capable in that area, and marry that with creativity and intuition, because you need both today to be successful. On the importance of developing a track record - Success breeds success and confidence. It's having done it and experienced it and lived it, warts and all. Because when someone talks about their track record and having delivered something great at the end of it, it's very rarely been smooth sailing to get to that. It's the lessons learned that are as valuable as the success delivered. It is really important to be able to talk from a place of confidence about what you've done, and how you've done it, and how you would do it differently based on the experience that you've had. You've got to get dirty. You really got to roll up your sleeves and do it. I mean one bit of advice that I would give to anybody listening to this is, take opportunities that come up that sit outside of your natural job.

In this episode, Jim and Tyson will answer some questions posted by members of the Facebook Group about what kind of clients take in when going solo and starting your own practice and the long term impact client intake protocols can have in your business. Also, social media, platforms, content creation and getting your message out there! “Take what you want and leave the rest.” Whenever you are leaving a firm and you already have a fairly successful client base and practice, but you are leaving to start your own practice, whether or not you should lower your standards when it comes to taking on new clients to actually bring in new life to the firm and whether or not is ok to loosen your protocols during this process.

The whole idea of content marketing is predicated on one core belief. We're all screwed if it's a bogus belief. > “The model proposed in blogging seems to be that you show what you know, people sign up, and then you sell them what you know.” This is Steve Fossey writing in the Fizzle forums recently. > **“I almost NEVER pay for anything on the web when I have been attracted by free content. Why would my audience?”** Steve's question is a good one, a question most of us ask at some point in the journey of building a blog or podcast with the hopes of eventually earning revenue from a product of some kind. So on the show today we dissect this issue. You may have an idea of what the results are, but how we get there will surprise you. Corbett's ideas and experience here are especially insightful.
