Digible recently celebrated its fifth birthday, and throughout this five-year journey, we've learned quite a lot about running a startup, building a fantastic work environment, innovation, thought-leadership, and more. We dedicated this episode to diving into some of the lessons we learned over the years. Joining today with the podcast are David Staley, president and co-founder of Digible, and Reid Wicoff, founding partner of Digible. In any business venture, hard work can contribute to its success and growth. However, luck can contribute to defining the path of an organization as well. We start the conversation by talking about how these two factors come into play in a business venture. Another area we touch on is the concept of "Fake it till you make it." Over the years, we've seen many startups in the tech space following this sort of philosophy in their early years of business. We have also seen a fair amount of businesses getting in trouble as a result of this sort of thinking and discuss the sustainable growth of a business venture. Over the last few years, we've seen the downfall of quite a few startups that quickly grew into the ‘unicorn' status. We talk about some of these startups, some traits they had in common in terms of leadership, and what contributed to their untimely fall. Towards the end of the episode, we dive into what a business should do when they reach a point where they're running out of cash and how to scale. [02:15] Luck & Hard Work – Kicking off the conversation, Reid shares his take on the roles played by hard work and luck in the path to success of an organization. [05:58] Advice for Startups – David shares some of his learnings from the five-year journey of Digible. [11:44] Fake It Till You Make It? – Reid's take on the implications of working based on the ‘fake it till you make it' concept and whether businesses should embrace that concept in some cases. [19:18] Failed Unicorns – We talk about some examples of failed startups that used to be worth billions at some point, including WeWork and Theranos, and the role leadership played in their downfall. [27:18] Ensuring Longevity – How the leadership roles of a startup should be arranged in a way that improves its longevity. [30:24] Running Out of Cash – David shares his advice on what to do if a startup is in a situation where it looks like the company is burning through cash for too long without getting enough traction. [37:00] The Great Game – David shares some of the strategies he learned from the book ‘The Great Game of Business.' [46:10] Mediocrity – How mediocrity affects the growth of a startup and how organizations should deal with it.

Here's how to use the 20 Mile March to accomplish your biggest goals! I remember hearing about this concept from Hal Elrod a few years back and it rocked my world. It fundamentally changed the way I approach goal setting & goal achievement. It’s called the “20 Mile March”. This has become the core way we achieve any goal at SPS, and how I approach all of my goals personally. I’ve found that this concept is often known, but seldom used. Listen to the episode where I explain the concept, and how you can use it to achieve your goals. P.S. check out Jim Collins' book Great By Choice for more on this concept.

Are you great or desire to be? Do you have a conventional education or not? Questions we answer with our book review today. My cohost Tom Durkin Owner operator Ames Fitness and Fitness World Ankeny in Midwest, CEO of Health & Fitness Management, 40 years in fitness industry sales and management. He has over 2000 books in his personal library. He manages over 315 employees daily at multiple facilities.  Questions we answer in todays episode:  What book (or books) are we talking about today and who are the authors? Great by Choice– Jim Collins Dark Horse-Todd Rose How influenced are you - or should others be - on "best seller lists" ? If they're simply popularity contests based on the best marketing and promotion campaigns, there are likely some bombs on those lists and some "sleepers" out there that no one else knows about until a review like this. What's been the best and most reliable source of what-to-read-next for you?  How much does the author's background, credentials, and experience matter to you in your selection of what to read next?  What made these books review-worthy? What are the biggest take-aways from Great by Choice? Are you living up to your potential? Who are you competing against? Are you great compared to them? Are you fulfilled and full according to your goal? Am I taking the steps to do it?  What steps can you take to be great by choice? Talk to people to create rapport, offer a session, use a script, ask for a sale Have a list of leads Book speeches, presentations, creating podcasts articles Be prepared, planned for the customers you have Measure how many times you've done each of these steps regularly (daily, weekly) “People who are great by choice have clear performance markers.” - Tom Durkin, 40-year fitness industry owner & manager  What are three take-aways from Dark Horse?  Everybody has talent. There are many pathways to success and fulfillment. A non-traditional approach doesn't necessarily put you at a disadvantage.  Could a non-traditional approach be an asset? In fitness, not having a degree or starting late in life, for example might be an asset. What do you think of the statement “Being Different, is Better than Being Better”? Another book this is reminiscent of - Outliers, by Malcom Gladwell. (not on our review list right now) If you had to recommend a top 10 books to read on habits of successful people... would either or both make the cut?  No to Great By Choice No to Dark Horse Up next in our book club review: Mindset– by Carol Dweck Have you read Great by Choice or Dark Horse?

Must Read Books for Fitness Trainers & Fitness Entrepreneurs  Tuesday morning this week I was staying in a hotel in Dallas. I went down to the “fitness room” where there was a treadmill, a bike, and an elliptical along with some dumbbells. It was small, dark, low ceilings. I thought… I'll go outside and run. I stepped out unprepared for the temps and decided this would be a short one. I rounded the block and saw LA Fitness. I promptly went in and used… a treadmill, bike, and elliptical. Seriously? I laughed at myself as I walked out realizing what I'd done. I tell you this because it relates to our episode today. The environment made it easier to get a harder, slightly longer workout. Environment matters. Welcome to the Book reviews episode. This is the place to be if you're looking for must read books - to read or listen to - that will build you up, grow your influence, expand your understanding… whether you want our cliff notes or you want to pick up the book yourself… we've got you covered. My co-reviewer on this podcast and for future book reviews: Tom Durkin Owner operator Ames Fitness and Fitness World Ankeny both in Iowa and the CEO of Health & Fitness Management. He has 40 years in fitness industry sales, management, and ownership. Considering this is in a conservative Midwestern market, take away is if he can so can you. He's got 2000 books in his personal library(and growing), 200 and 300 to begin with and last year 900K visits, 58,000 personal training sessions, 315 employees at present. Questions we cover in this episode: What must read books are we talking about today and who are the authors?  Willpower Doesn't Work–Benjamin Hardy The Power of Habit: Why we do what we do in life and business- Charles Duhigg How influenced are you - or should others be - on "best seller lists"?

What are three take-aways from each book?  What stands out from Willpower? What struck you about Habits? What if anything missed the mark on this/these books?  If you had to recommend a top 10 must read books to on habits of successful people... would either or both make the cut?  The people you surround yourself with influence your habits, your ability to examine your habits, and ability to change your habits.  Our next must read books: Dark Horse – the guy that doesn't do the standard education or path Great By Choice– by Jim Collins  Got another book YOU would recommend?

“It’s hard to get diversity in your ideas when they’re all coming from you, all the time. Great things don’t happen in a vacuum.” -NiCole What if we told you that market saturation is a myth? I know it may be hard to believe when it feels that every mompreneur you know is also involved in network marketing. The secret to successful networking doesn’t lie in the unique nature of your product, but in the innovative strategy of your marketing. This week on the Authentic Influencer Podcast, we’re talking about how to stand out, make a difference, and utilize ideas that surround you everyday to embrace your movement in a fresh way.   “When a company has a new strategy or training, it has to apply to 90% of the people, otherwise it won’t work. Even when they come up with something new, it’s going to be generic, and won’t apply to everyone.” - NiCole The book Great By Choice written by Jim Collins discusses the strategies implemented by the founder of FedEx, Fred Smith. Smith studied the operating methods of military boot camps, and their centralized locations for training, and applied these principles to the delivery of packages. When applying effective concepts to an entirely different industry, the strategy became revolutionary! You have the power to do the same within your own business. To stand out in the market, begin to study practices of successful companies in tangential, or even completely different industries. This could be exactly what you need to stand out in a “saturated” market.   “No market is saturated. It only becomes saturated with the same people doing the same thing. ” - Brooke   Another great way to become more diverse in your business is to find the support of other entrepreneurs and network marketers. Join the Authentic Influencer Marketing Facebook group to surround yourself with other women who desire to present a unique business strategy in the midst of the growing sea of network marketers. Great products and long-term sustainable business models are developed within the context of community. Gaining feedback, and giving space to hone your idea and make adjustments, could give you the necessary edge for success.   If you are serious about growing your business, and promoting diversity in your movement, come to the Social Tenacity Workshop this January 22-24. This won’t be a space for hype, or just an event, but a valuable time for you to learn, and grow alongside other entrepreneurs.   Visit socialtenacity.com/workshop and enter coupon code AIP for a 20% discount on your ticket!

Episode 216: Jim Collins – How To Go From Good To Great Show Notes: Sustained Excellence: Never go to a meeting without writing down 5 questions prior to the meeting Always follow up the meeting with at least a page of notes -- Share those with your mentor What made you say yes to The Learning Leader Show after 2 1/2 years? It requires intense focus to prepare This is a teaching moment Only say yes if it's going to be impactful. The team determined this show was the right place to do that Always ask yourself -- "How can I make myself useful to the world?" This was advice originally given to him by Peter Drucker A great teacher can change your life in 30 seconds -- Peter Drucker did that for Jim "I am constitutionally unemployable" -- Why Jim feels this about himself His curiosity has led to the success and most importantly... Great questions like: How to turn something into an enduring great company? How someone or a company can go from Good To Great? Jim most admired Peter Drucker when he was 35 years old... The story of their first meeting and how Peter was the curious one... Kept peppering Jim with questions to start the conversation (much like Jim did to me to start this conversation) "The ultimate zen master with bamboo stick" Drucker - "It seems to me that you spend a lot of time worrying if you will survive. You probably will survive. You seem to focus a lot on the question, "how to be successful?" That is the wrong question. The right question is "How to be useful?" What would it have cost Jim to not publish Good To Great after he finished the manuscript? -- More than $100m.  He had to get it out in the world.  He felt it was his responsibility to do so... Another great mentor said to Jim... "When seeking an entrepreneurial path... Cut off all other options and GO." "Everything is driven by by questions" Can a good company become a great company? How? Level 5 Leader Starts with confronting the brutal facts Personal humility and professional will Not what, but who -- Get the right people on the bus Does not happen in one fell swoop or a leap. It happens over time. Flywheel -- Create momentum Understand the hedgehog concept -- An expert in one thing... Knows it very well 3 Parts of the Hedgehog concept Deeply passionate about it Encoded for it... You're really good at it. An expert Economically, you can make money from it Level 5 Leaders: What cause do I serve? Humility to serve... It's not about them Willful -- Able to make difficult decisions For the best Level 5 Leaders... How do they sustain it? It's easier for them because they understand their personal hedgehog -- It helps them remain renewed after many years "Measured Risk" vs. "Burn The Boats" Fire Bullets... Then Cannon Balls For Jim, this was his first two books + his time as a professor at Stanford before he decided to leave to start his own company You must navigate your path.  It doesn't mean you take unfounded risk... Fire bullets first, then cannonballs "If you never fire a cannonball, you'll never make it. "BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) How to write a good one? Take calibrated, calculated risk -- Have things to keep you alive even if everything goes wrong Productive Paranoia Validation - What are points of success you can look to? Jim's wife Joann committing to winning an Ironman race... She was a consultant at the time.  She was also a runner. She tried biking and was very good at it.  Eventually she practiced, took measured risks, and won the Ironman race "If you were a trial attorney and had to win the case, what evidence would you use?" The Flywheel principle and putting it to use for Jeff Bezos and the Amazon team -- How could they build momentum? After Jim met with Jeff Bezos and his leadership team in 2001, Amazon executives were elated; according to several members of the team at the time, they felt that, after five years, they finally understood their own business.Most important for young leaders -- Jim's advice "FIRST WHO, THEN WHAT?" Who do you want to mentor you? Who do you want to mentor? Who do you want to be your friends? Who do you want to work with? Who do you want to spend time with? The most important question is WHO You don't need to answer WHAT until you answer WHO "The most important question is WHO. First WHO, then WHAT. Who will be your mentor? Who will be your friends? Who will you help? Who will you spend time with? You don't need to answer what until well after you've answered WHO."

Este episódio é parte do conteúdo do novo curso do YogIN App - o curso trata sobre o tema do medo, analisando-o segundo escrituras antigas da Índia com a Katha Upanishad e o Mahabharata. O objetivo de abrir essa reflexão é pensarmos o quanto o medo nos paralisa e impede que expressemos nossa real Natureza. Patañjali já havia observado isso, e não à toa coloca dois tipos de medos como impedimentos da expressão da nossa verdadeira identidade. Dvesha = aversão (medo gerado por uma experiência dolorosa) Abhinivesha = apego à vida ou medo da morte. Os medos são importantes, eles nos protegem de ameaças, mas inegavelmente também dificultam muitas das nossas atitudes. Nesse podcast, eu trouxe o exemplo de uma etapa muito importante no processo de despertar mais ousadia que é A Prepração. Dois aventureiros profissionais, tentaram ao mesmo tempo conquistar o Polo Norte em 1911, um deles chegou um mês antes e com toda a equipe em boa saúde. O outro, apesar de ter as tecnologias de ponta e mais recursos, viu a Bandeira do outro país cravada no ponto dos 90º.

If you chose to invest in real estate as part of your retirement plan, you better understand what you're signing up for.  Most "educational" classes, workshops etc. focus on all the benefits of real estate and gloss over the realities of doing it. Buying, owning and operating rental properties is hard work.  This week, I talk with Philip Wetzel about the real work that goes into investing directly in real estate. Retirement Tip of the Week 3 lessons from Jim Collins' books Good to Great and Great By Choice that you can use to make smarter financial decisions.  Two of my favorite business books are Great By Choice and Good to Great. Last week, I had the pleasure of hearing the lead author of each, Jim Collins, speak. It was awesome.  The lessons learned from his research on what made companies great can easily be applied in managing your financial life. Here are 3 that you should start using today... First who, than what Confront the brutal facts (yet never lose faith) Fire bullets, then cannonballs Feature Presentation: What You Should Know Before Investing in Real Estate Investing in real estate can be a good thing-as long it fits your situation, you truly understand the risks and work involved and stay diversified. There are plenty of workshops, classes, seminars, infomercials systems, etc. out there to "teach" you how you should do it. Unfortunately, they are typically strong on the benefits and light on all the work needed to position yourself for success.  In this episode, I start to give you the rest of the story. Some of the topics we cover are: Why you need to run it like a business How to do your homework before you buy your first home Why passive real estate investing is not really passive The difference between flipping house and real estate investing The importance of having cash reserves The advantages of being a handyman The advantages and dangers of using leverage Why you need to put 20% down when you buy a property The importance of finding quality tenants How management companies work
