Most entrepreneurs are drowning in strategies, hacks, and shiny new tools—chasing “more” in hopes of reaching the next level. But what if the secret to real, sustainable growth isn't more… But deeper?In this episode of The Mind of George Show, I dive into one of the most important mindset shifts in business: mastery comes from the same reps at different depths. You'll learn why success isn't about what's next—it's about going deeper with what already works, and why simplicity is your most powerful lever for long-term success.This is part of a keynote series I gave to some of the world's highest-performing poker players—but it's just as relevant if you're an entrepreneur, leader, or high-achiever navigating burnout, plateaus, or growth that still doesn't feel like enough.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy chasing new strategies sabotages long-term growthThe “shiny object” trap and how to avoid itHow to uncover the reps that actually move the needleWhy complexity is killing your business progressA simple reflection practice to find where you've driftedThe link between simplicity, peace, and peak performanceKey Takeaways✔️Mastery doesn't come from novelty—it comes from depth.✔️Success is simple—because it can be scheduled.✔️Complexity is often just disguised avoidance.✔️Simplicity creates clarity. Clarity creates results.✔️You're not behind—you're just stuck in the shallow end of your own genius.✔️Find the reps that work. Do them better.

In this Think Thursday episode, Molly Watts challenges the deeply ingrained belief that we must “start over” any time we slip up in our habit change journey—especially when it comes to drinking. Drawing from neuroscience, behavior psychology, and the Alcohol Minimalist framework, Molly explains why this mindset is not only emotionally unhelpful but also neurologically inaccurate.Listeners will learn how to reframe off-plan moments not as failures, but as meaningful data points that contribute to long-term growth and brain change. Whether it's drinking, eating, spending, or any behavior you're trying to shift, this episode offers an empowering new narrative: you are not behind, you are evolving.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why the idea of “starting over” is a product of traditional recovery models like Alcoholics AnonymousHow the AA concept of relapse and abstinence has shaped our cultural view of success and failureWhy your brain doesn't erase progress, but rather integrates and learns from each experienceHow to shift away from shame and into self-compassion without compromising growthThe role of automaticity in habit formation, according to Dr. Wendy WoodHow the brain builds resilience through “returning,” not perfectionA 3-step process to reframe setbacks and keep moving forwardKey Concepts & Tools:The Iterative Mindset – Growth is not linear; it's a spiral of adjustment and awarenessPause the Narrative – Catch the story you're telling yourself about failureName the Learning – Reflect on the experience with curiosity, not blameMake a Micro-Move – Realign in the moment with one small actionNeuroplasticity – Your brain is always adapting; no step is wastedSelf-Compassion Science – Dr. Kristin Neff's research shows kind self-talk leads to more consistent behavior changeReferenced Episode:Think Thursday: The Iterative Mindset Takeaway Quote:“Let's drop the idea of Day One. You are not behind. You are learning. You are aligning. You are leading your brain—one choice at a time.” ★ Support this podcast ★

This episode is sponsored by Lockton, click here to learn more Watch the full video on YouTube - click hereElon Musk did what most thought was impossible. He built a mission-driven brand that captured global attention, made electric vehicles desirable, and forced legacy automakers to rethink everything. But lately, his leadership has taken a turn—and it's raising serious questions. The mission hasn't changed, but the behavior around it has.In this special solo episode, Jan Griffiths lays out five leadership lessons for Elon—not out of criticism, but from a deep respect for what he's accomplished and a firm belief in what the industry still needs from him.She starts with mission. Tesla's purpose has united people around the world. But when Elon supports people who oppose that mission, it creates confusion. You can't promote a cause while backing those who go against it.Then comes culture. Elon's ability to identify problems and push for solutions is extraordinary, but intensity without empathy creates fear, which kills creativity. If the goal is innovation, leaders must build environments where people feel safe to contribute and not scared to fail.Jan then challenges the idea of leading by example. Sleeping on the factory floor shows commitment, but expecting others to follow that model isn't sustainable. Real modeling means setting a standard not just in work ethic but also in behavior and how you show up in moments of crisis.Micromanagement is next. Being able to solve problems doesn't mean owning every decision. The more decisions a leader owns, the fewer their teams can make. Jan warns that this behavior ultimately traps leaders in a loop where nothing moves without them.Finally: identity. Without knowing who you are as a leader, everything else starts to fall apart. Jan points to tools like the 21 Traits of Authentic Leadership and Doug Conant's leadership blueprint to help any leader build that internal alignment.Elon has done what few believed possible. But the chaos, political noise, and online disputes only adds friction at a time when the real threat is global. The industry doesn't need noise. It needs the focused, driven leader who started it all.Themes discussed in this episode:The disconnect between Tesla's mission and Elon Musk's public alignmentsThe impact of fear-based leadership culture on innovation and employee engagementHow micromanagement affects team performance and company growthThe cultural transformation needed to support EV and software-defined vehicle innovationHow a CEO's behavior sets the tone for company cultureThe importance of psychological safety in building high-performing teamsHow public distractions and controversy weaken brand focusWhy the auto industry needs focused leadership amid rising global competitionYour HostJan Griffiths is the architect of cultural change in the automotive industry. As the President & Founder of Gravitas Detroit, Jan brings a wealth of expertise and a passion for transforming company cultures. Additionally, she is the host of the Automotive Leaders Podcast, where she shares insightful conversations with industry visionaries. Jan is also the author of

If picking up the phone makes you feel anxious, sweaty, or full of self-doubt, you're not the only one. We're diving into what cold calling really feels like, why so many of us avoid it, and how to rewire your mindset so it actually becomes one of your most powerful growth tools.We get real about the fear of rejection, the pressure to sound “perfect,” and the impostor syndrome that creeps in when you're trying something that pushes you out of your comfort zone. These fears often stem from old stories we tell ourselves, like not being good enough or not knowing what to say, but it is possible to flip the script.You'll hear a personal story about how a simple, casual conversation turned into a major opportunity—no sales pitch, no pressure, just a genuine chat. That's the magic of connection. Cold calling doesn't have to be awkward or scripted. When you focus on building relationships and stay open to the process, the results follow.We also touch on the physical side of fear—racing heart, shaky hands, overthinking—and give you practical ways to manage it so you can build momentum, confidence, and consistency.This episode is your reminder that you don't have to be perfect to start. You just have to start. The more you show up, the easier it gets—and the more wins you'll create along the way.“Cold calling felt scary, intimidating, and absolutely exhausting. Maybe you can relate to that. I would get all sweaty in my hands or under my armpits, my voice would be shaky, and I'd find myself talking fast or stumbling over my words.”- Kylie WalkerWe explore:Personal experiences with cold calling in the property management industryStruggles with confidence, rejection, and imposter syndromeImpact of childhood experiences on adult challengesMindset shifts for overcoming fears related to cold callingImportance of genuine conversations and building connectionsEmbracing discomfort as a part of personal growthThe significance of rejection and learning from itFocusing on relationship-building rather than hard sellingThe value of adaptability and flexibility during callsEncouragement for listeners to take action and invest in personal growthConnect with Done For You ServicesDone For You Services - https://dfys.com.au/Find out about our Done For You Social Media Management - https://dfys.mykajabi.com/done-for-you-smFind out about our Done for You Lead Generation - https://dfys.mykajabi.com/done-for-you-lead-generationConnect with Done For You Services: https://www.instagram.com/doneforyouservices_/Kylie's ResourcesProperty Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchoolDigital Marketing School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalschoolThat Property Mum Courses:

Hey, friends in this episode, I'm breaking down what it really looks like to operate from an abundance mindset as a fundraiser or nonprofit leader. If you're tired of feeling pressure to chase every donor, scared to hear “no,” or stuck in scarcity, this is for you. I'm sharing real stories and practical signs that show when you're leading from a place of trust, service, and confidence, not desperation.Let's talk about donor referrals, releasing misaligned people, and making bold asks with zero attachment. Abundance isn't just a nice idea — it's a powerful shift in how you show up and invite generosity.What We Cover in This Episode:How to know when you're in an abundance mindset (and what it actually looks like in real life)Why I refer donors to other nonprofits and how that move came back around years laterThe power of low-pressure, service-based leadership in major donor relationshipsLetting go of board members, donors, and prospects who aren't alignedWhy cycling through unresponsive prospects is necessary for growthThe mindset shift behind bold, audacious asks and how I went from $5K/month to a $300K giftHow to stop budgeting donors' philanthropy for themOwning your mistakes and asking for donor feedback with confidenceHere's what I want you to take away: there is plenty. There are plenty of donors, plenty of money, plenty of opportunities. The more we let go of clinging and chasing, the more we make room for aligned, meaningful generosity to flow in.Being in an abundance mindset doesn't mean you don't want results — it means you trust that the right people, the right gifts, and the right timing will come when you lead with service, clarity, and courage.Do you need to make bolder asks, but you have to figure out what the heck you're going to say?
