The Ultimate Tax Shield: Mastering the 1031 Exchange for Exponential Wealth Growth Are you ready to use the most powerful tax loophole available to serious real estate investors? The 1031 Exchange (also known as a "like-kind exchange" or "Starker exchange") is a game-changing strategy found in Section 1031 of the IRS tax code that allows investors to defer capital gains taxes indefinitely. This episode dives deep into the mechanism that helps investors keep the government's money working for them, accelerate compounding, and build millions in net worth. Key Takeaways from This Episode: The Power of Tax Deferral and Compounding Discover how the 1031 exchange allows you to defer paying taxes on profits and the recapture of depreciation when selling an investment property. Learn why taxes deferred until tomorrow are superior to taxes paid today, allowing you to reinvest the full gain into your next deal. By continually using the 1031 exchange, investors can put the entire profit—including the money that would have been taxed—to work, which leads to greater wealth accumulation over time. See how investors who consistently use the 1031 exchange can accumulate millions more in wealth over a 25-year period compared to those who pay taxes after every sale. Understand the "end game": taxes can be avoided altogether by holding assets until death, passing them to heirs via the "stepped-up basis," which virtually eliminates the inherited tax consequences. Strict Rules You MUST Follow To successfully execute this powerful strategy, you must adhere to the six essential rules laid out by the IRS: Like-Kind Requirement: The property sold and the replacement property must be held for investment or trade (not personal residences or properties for quick resale/flipping). You can exchange nearly any investment real estate for another, such as swapping a duplex for an apartment complex, or raw land for a rental house. Required Value: The replacement property (or properties combined) must be of equal or greater value than the relinquished property's entire sale price. If you acquire a property of lesser value, the difference, known as "boot," is subject to normal capital gains taxes. 45-Day Identification Window: You have only 45 days from the date the relinquished property closes to officially identify potential replacement deals in writing. The IRS generally allows identification of up to three potential replacement properties. 180-Day Reinvestment Period: The acquisition of the replacement property must be fully completed and the title transferred within 180 days of the sale of the original property. Qualified Intermediary (QI): You may not touch the profit from the sale. A neutral third party, known as a Qualified Intermediary or accommodator, must hold and transfer the funds to maintain the tax-deferred status. Title Requirements: The title holder (taxpayer or entity) of the relinquished property must be the same as the buyer of the replacement property. Advanced Strategies and Flexibility Learn how the 1031 exchange enables investors to shift their focus—for example, moving from high-maintenance properties to low-maintenance commercial investments like triple-net (NNN) lease properties. Discover how investors can consistently "trade up" to larger, more passive assets, such as moving equity into a multimillion-dollar shopping mall syndication. Understand that while interests in standard LLC syndications typically do not qualify for a 1031 exchange, specialized structures like Tenancy in Common (TIC) or Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs) can qualify as "like-kind" property for investors seeking a passive route. ⚠️ Critical Advice: The 1031 exchange is complex, and any minor error in paperwork could result in disqualification and immediate tax liability. You should always consult with a qualified tax professional before undertaking this strategy to ensure compliance and proper execution.

Why Trust Breaks Down and What To Do About It In this episode, Marcus talks with Charles Green, one of the genuine heavyweights in the world of trust and commercial relationships. If you lead a mid market scaling tech firm and you suspect your sales or GTM function is underperforming for reasons no dashboard can explain, this conversation will feel uncomfortably accurate. Together they explore how fear, uncertainty, and internal pressure quietly poison performance. Forget the usual talk about activity ratios and pipeline hygiene. This is a candid look at the human drivers behind buyer reluctance, stalling, and ghosting, and why most attempts to “solve” these problems only make them worse. Charlie argues that instead of trying to measure trust, leaders should focus on spotting and removing the behaviours that actively destroy it. If you are grappling with the tension between short term targets and long term customer value, this episode will challenge how you think about leadership, incentives, and your culture. Key Takeaways for Scaling Founders, GTM Leaders and Sales People Trust is lived, not conceptual. It is emotional as much as rational. Charlie draws a clear distinction between thin, institutional trust and thick, personal trust. Trust is often built in moments. Reliability takes repetition, but intimacy is created quickly. How you pause, how you listen, and how you look at someone all matter more than your slide deck. Over promising is lying twice. One promise on the way in, one on the way out. It corrodes trust faster than anything. Fear drives most distrust. Buyers who feel uncertain catastrophise. That is what creates anticipatory buyer remorse and pipeline ghosting. The antidote is to name the fear out loud. Once spoken, it loses power. Repair beats perfection. A relationship that has been broken and then repaired well is often stronger than one that never faced a test. Repair requires vulnerability and accountability, not ego. The Trust Equation and Why Most Firms Focus on the Wrong Bits The Trust Equation helped popularise the components of trustworthiness. Most leaders obsess over credibility and reliability because they are convenient to measure. Charlie explains why they are nowhere near the strongest drivers. Intimacy. By far the biggest factor. It is about making the other person feel safe, understood, and genuinely heard. Nurses top trust rankings for a reason. Low Self Orientation. The second strongest factor. Hard to measure and impossible to bribe into existence. Fear drives self orientation. Freedom from fear frees you to focus on others. Scaling, Money, and the Uncomfortable Truth About Culture Charlie and Marcus tackle why trust based, customer centric selling so often collapses once a company grows beyond 100 or 200 people. Money permeates culture. Investors and boards often prioritise valuation over outcomes. This shifts intent and corrodes trust without anyone noticing. Ideology shapes behaviour. Modern management is built on economic beliefs that favour short term gains and things that are easy to measure. Mixed messages destroy conviction. Telling teams to “do the right thing” while driving absurd stretch targets creates confusion and cynicism. The Bill Green example. When the former Accenture CEO was challenged about incentives conflicting with doing the right thing, he told the room to do the right thing first, then fix the incentives later. That clarity changed the behaviour of forty senior leaders immediately. Practical Trust Based GTM Moves These are the actions Charles Green recommends leaders adopt straight away. Be transparent on price early. Withholding price to “build value” creates anxiety. Give a ballpark early to remove fear. Stop using discounts as currency. It destroys trust. Offer only standard, published discounts such as volume or non profit rates. Protect existing customers first. Expansion and net new wins come after that. Repeat business is far more profitable and far less stressful. Measure Time to Value, not NPS. Buyers rent an outcome. How quickly they reach it tells you more about your trustworthiness than a score. Build your trust muscle. Make many small promises and keep every one of them. It is astonishing how fast this compounds. Model the behaviour you want. Trust others first and show your workings. A simple line such as “I could be wrong, but it seems this is an issue. Is it?” creates space for honesty. Final Thoughts and What Happens Next Trust is built in tiny moments. Charlie encourages listeners to choose two or three insights, write them down, and let them settle into daily practice. Marcus points out that a 0.1 percent daily improvement compounds to roughly 30 percent over a year. The benefits start immediately. Listeners are invitated to join Sellers Anonymous, a community helping salespeople strengthen their trust muscle Subscribe to hear the next episode: Marcus and Charles will dissect how the Trust Equation applies to negotiation, objections, and winning second and third waves of business.   Links to books discussed Adam Smith Wealth of Nations The Theory of Moral Sentiments   Frederick Reichheld The Loyalty Effect   Peter Boghossian How to have impossible conversations Manual for creating atheists   Contacts Connect with Charlie on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/charleshgreen/ Connect with Marcus https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcuscauchi/ And if you'd like to be a guest contact me https://www.linkedin.com/in/suzannecauchi/

In this episode, Colleen walks us through a coaching moment that captures what emotional sobriety really means: shifting from self-criticism and control into vision and alignment. When one client arrived overwhelmed and focused on what her partner wasn't doing, the breakthrough came when she identified who she wanted to be — positive and powerful. From there, everything changed. Colleen unpacks how to train the brain to serve your vision instead of your fear, why alignment between mind and body is the true foundation of change, and how to stop letting your thoughts drain your energy. You'll learn what it means to "stop, drop, and feel," and how this simple practice brings you back to your power when you're spiraling in stress or self-doubt.

"Lindsey, I hate my stomach. I can't stop thinking about it. It's ruining my day, my mood, my recovery. What do I do?" If your stomach is your biggest trigger in recovery - if you can't stop looking at it, obsessing over whether it looks bigger, spiraling every time you see your reflection - this episode is for you, girlfriend. Host Lindsey Nichol gets real about stomach hate in recovery and shares something her client needed to hear today: "I may not love my stomach every day, but if I'm being honest? I didn't love my stomach every day when I was in the trenches of my eating disorder either." So here's the question: Which hard do you want? Hard #1: Hating your stomach while you're restricting, obsessing, body checking, over-exercising, and missing your life. Hard #2: Sometimes not loving your stomach, but being FREE. Living your life. Eating with family. Being present. Having energy. Both are hard. But only one leads to freedom. In this episode, Lindsey shares her own stomach struggles - how she used to search for evidence it was "blowing up," how it would send her into spirals of restriction and over-exercise, and what she does NOW on the days when she doesn't love her stomach. Plus, she gives you 7 practical tools you can use on your hardest days. This is real talk with practical help. No toxic positivity. No "just love yourself." Just honest truth and actionable tools for when your stomach triggers you. In This Episode, You'll Hear: Lindsey's Stomach Story: The Disorder Days How she was super conscious of her stomach feeling or looking bigger Searching for evidence it was "blowing up" - every mirror, reflection, window The spirals: restriction, over-exercise, mood switches Feeling out of control and reacting - being short or avoidant with loved ones How stomach hate controlled her entire day, every day The Truth Bomb: Choose Your Hard Hard #1: Hating your stomach while trapped in the eating disorder Hard #2: Sometimes not loving your stomach but being FREE The reality: Even at her lowest weight, Lindsey STILL didn't love her stomach The question: What other options do you have? Why you have to choose which hard you want to live with Why the Stomach Specifically? Why the stomach is such an easy target for self-criticism How society and social media have trained us to hate our stomachs Why the stomach becomes the "safe" target instead of dealing with real feelings The truth: Restriction makes stomach issues WORSE (digestion, bloating) Reality check: Stomachs are SUPPOSED to change throughout the day Aren't stomachs supposed to be FULL? That's their job What Lindsey Does NOW on Hard Days Wears baggy clothes, not restrictive clothing Avoids opportunities to stare in the mirror and body check Reminds herself of the truth: stomachs are allowed to change Thinks about her little girl self who never cared about her stomach Remembers being pregnant and LOVING watching her stomach grow Accepts that not loving her stomach doesn't mean she's failed The Shift That Changed Everything The realization: She was NEVER going to like her stomach at any size or weight Her stomach wasn't the problem - it was a tool for self-sabotage Used stomach hate when feeling out of control or "not enough" The only way through was acceptance and perspective shift Understanding that stomach hate is usually about something else entirely 7 Tools for Your Hardest Days Stop the Body Checking - Walk away from mirrors, put on baggy clothes Ask the Real Question - What am I really feeling? What am I avoiding? Function Over Form - Your stomach digests food, that's its job Remember Your Little Girl Self - You didn't care about your stomach as a kid Choose Your Hard - Trapped and hating it OR free and sometimes not loving it Wear Comfortable Clothes - Stop punishing yourself with restrictive clothing Talk Back to the Voice - "My stomach is allowed to change and that's okay" Key Takeaways: ✨ You didn't love your stomach in the disorder either - so what are you really choosing? ✨ There are two hards: choose yours - trapped with stomach hate OR free with occasional stomach discomfort ✨ Your stomach is not the problem - it's a symptom, a distraction from real feelings ✨ Restriction makes stomach issues WORSE - bloating, digestion problems increase with restriction ✨ Stomachs are supposed to change - throughout the day, after meals, when sitting vs standing ✨ The stomach is an easy target - easier to hate your stomach than deal with underlying fears ✨ You'll never be satisfied at any size - if stomach hate is really about control and self-sabotage ✨ Body checking makes it worse - the more you look, the more you spiral ✨ Function over form - your stomach's job is to digest food, not be flat 24/7 ✨ Little girl you didn't care - the goal isn't loving your stomach, it's living without it controlling you ✨ You don't have to love it to live - freedom doesn't require stomach love, just stomach acceptance Powerful Quotes from This Episode: "I may not love my stomach every day, but if I'm being honest? I didn't love my stomach every day when I was in the trenches of my eating disorder either" "Your stomach is a huge pain point in recovery. I get it. I've been there. It's real, it's valid, and it's one of the hardest parts" "I would search - like literally SEARCH - for evidence that it was blowing up" "My mood would switch on a dime. I'd feel totally out of control" "Your stomach doesn't have to control you. It doesn't have to dictate your mood, your choices, or your day" "Both are hard. But which hard do you want?" "Even at my lowest weight, I STILL didn't love my stomach. Even then. Even at my sickest" "So what other options do you have? Stay in the disorder and hate your stomach, or recover and sometimes not love it but have your LIFE back" "The stomach is easy for us to tear ourselves apart over" "Restriction makes stomach issues WORSE. When you're not eating enough, your digestion slows down. You get more bloated" "Aren't stomachs supposed to be full? That's their job. To hold food. To digest. To nourish you" "I was never going to like my stomach. No matter my size. No matter my weight" "Hating my stomach wasn't actually about my stomach. It was just a part of me that I used to self-sabotage when I felt out of control or not enough" "When you hate your stomach, ask yourself: What am I really afraid of right now?" "99% of the time, it's not actually your stomach" "You don't have to love your stomach to live your life. You don't have to love your stomach to recover" "Your stomach is not the enemy. Your stomach is just a stomach. It's allowed to exist. It's allowed to change. It's allowed to be full" "Choose your hard, girlfriend. Choose freedom" The 7 Tools Explained: Tool #1: Stop the Body Checking When you feel the urge to look in the mirror, pull your shirt tight, or analyze your stomach - STOP. Literally stop. Walk away. Do something else. Put on baggy clothes. The more you body check, the worse the obsession gets. Tool #2: Ask the Real Question Stop asking "Why does my stomach look like this?" and start asking "What am I really feeling right now? What am I avoiding?" Get to the root. Your stomach is almost never the actual problem. Common real feelings underneath stomach hate: Feeling out of control in some area of life Fear about something coming up Feeling "not enough" in comparison to others Anxiety about a situation Avoiding deeper emotional work Tool #3: Function Over Form Remind yourself: Your stomach digests food. It nourishes you. It expands when you eat because that's its JOB. It's not supposed to be flat 24/7. That's not realistic, healthy, or even possible. Tool #4: Remember Your Little Girl Self You didn't care about your stomach as a kid. You just lived. You played. You ate. You didn't analyze your body. THAT is the goal - not loving your stomach every day, just LIVING without it controlling you. Also remember: When you were pregnant (if applicable), you LOVED watching your stomach grow. You celebrated what your body could do. Why do you hate it now? Tool #5: Choose Your Hard On the hard days, say this out loud: "I can hate my stomach and be trapped in restriction, obsession, and isolation - OR I can sometimes not love my stomach but be FREE to live my life. Which hard do I want?" Tool #6: Wear Comfortable Clothes Stop punishing yourself with restrictive clothing. Stop wearing things that make you hyper-aware of your stomach all day. Wear what feels good. Your comfort matters more than how your stomach looks. Baggy clothes aren't "giving up" - they're choosing peace. Tool #7: Talk Back to the Voice When that critical voice says "Your stomach is too big," you talk back with truth: "My stomach is allowed to change" "My stomach is doing its job" "My stomach does not define my worth" "I didn't love my stomach at my lowest weight either, so this isn't about size" "Stomachs are supposed to be full" Questions to Reflect On: About Your Stomach Hate: When did you first start hating your stomach? What do you do when you hate your stomach? (body check, restrict, over-exercise, avoid people?) Does hating your stomach actually solve anything? Did you love your stomach at your lowest weight? (Be honest) About the Real Feelings: What are you REALLY feeling when you hate your stomach? What are you avoiding by focusing on your stomach? When does stomach hate show up most? (after meals, stressful situations, comparison moments?) What would happen if you couldn't focus on your stomach anymore - what would you have to deal with? About Your Choices: Which hard do you want: trapped and hating it OR free and sometimes not loving it? What is stomach hate costing you? (relationships, experiences, peace, presence?) What would change if your stomach wasn't your focus anymore? Are you ready to stop letting your stomach control your life? About Your Little Girl Self: When was the last time you thought about your body the way you did as a little girl? What would little-girl-you think about how much time you spend hating your stomach? What did you do with your time before stomach hate consumed you? Who This Episode Is For: This episode is essential listening if you: Hate your stomach and it's ruining your recovery Can't stop body checking your stomach throughout the day Search for "evidence" your stomach is getting bigger Spiral into restriction or over-exercise when you hate your stomach Let your stomach dictate your mood, choices, and entire day Feel triggered by your stomach after every meal Compare your stomach to everyone else's Thought you'd love your stomach in recovery but you don't Feel like your stomach is the one body part you can't accept Need real talk and practical tools, not toxic positivity Are stuck between hating your stomach in the disorder vs. sometimes not loving it in freedom Need permission to not love your stomach but live your life anyway Important Truths About Stomachs in Recovery: Stomachs Change Throughout the Day: Flatter in the morning Fuller after meals Different when sitting vs. standing Bloated sometimes (especially in recovery) This is NORMAL and HEALTHY Restriction Makes It Worse: Slows digestion Increases bloating Creates more discomfort Makes you MORE obsessed with your stomach Stomach Hate Is Usually About Something Else: Control issues Fear and anxiety Feeling "not enough" Comparison to others Avoiding deeper feelings You Didn't Love It at Your Lowest Weight Either: If you still hated your stomach at your sickest, size isn't the issue Stomach hate is a symptom, not the problem No amount of restriction will make you love it Function Over Form: Your stomach's job is to digest food It's supposed to expand after eating It's supposed to be FULL Flat stomachs 24/7 are not realistic or healthy What Lindsey Does Now (Practical Examples): Morning Routine: Puts on comfortable, baggy clothes first thing Avoids standing in front of mirror analyzing Brushes teeth, does hair, moves on Doesn't give herself opportunity to spiral After Meals: Expects stomach to be fuller - that's its job Reminds herself: "Stomachs are supposed to be full" Doesn't body check or analyze Focuses on how she FEELS, not how she LOOKS On Triggering Days: Acknowledges: "I don't love my stomach today and that's okay" Asks: "What am I really feeling? What's really bothering me?"

What if every crown, implant, or veneer you placed didn't just build smiles—but built wealth? In this episode, Dr. Len Tau sits down with innovators Max Zanan and Adam Marburger of Dental Protection Group to reveal how dentists can turn warranties into a new revenue stream. They're showing why protecting your patients' dental work can also protect—and grow—your financial future. They explain how this simple yet powerful concept—borrowed from the automotive industry—offers dentists a way to increase patient trust, improve case acceptance, and build long-term wealth through profit-sharing warranty programs. Max and Adam share how their model allows dentists to turn warranties into wealth-building vehicles, all while protecting patients and creating a new stream of passive income in a tax-advantaged environment. They also discuss how to get your team on board, how to present warranties to patients, and why this model is changing how entrepreneurial dentists think about their businesses. You'll learn: Warranties Build Trust: Patients already value protection plans in every purchase—offering one in dentistry creates instant credibility and peace of mind. Wealth Through Risk Transfer: Unlike goodwill replacements, Dental Protection Group's model lets dentists transfer risk and receive compensation when failures occur. Profit Sharing Opportunity: Money left over from unclaimed warranties is returned to the practice, compounding over time like a "401(k) on steroids." Team Buy-In Is Key: Success depends on making warranties part of the practice culture—presented as a standard part of every procedure, not an upsell. Entrepreneurial Dentistry: The program empowers dentists to generate long-term, tax-friendly income, fund growth, or even retire earlier.   Key Takeaways 00:44 Introduction and Event Highlights 02:30 Meet the Dental Protection Group 04:35 Understanding Dental Warranties 06:00 The Value of Warranties in Dentistry 06:40 Warranties as a Consumer Expectation 10:40 Differentiating Warranties from Goodwill 12:50 The Financial Benefits of True Warranties 14:40 Wealth Building through Warranties 16:01 Creating Generational Wealth in Dentistry 17:40 Implementing Warranties in Practice 20:55 The Culture of Warranties in Dental Practices 22:52 The Perfect Scenario for Implementation 28:00 Handling Patient Objections 30:44 Team Buy-In and Incentives 31:35 Quick Onboarding Process 32:35 Transferability of Warranties 37:37 Final Thoughts and Opportunities   — Connect with Max and Adam Visit DentalProtectionGroup.com to schedule a consultation with Max and Adam.

You know what's more expensive than a bad hire? A great hire you set up to fail. Welcome, Pivoter! In Part 2 of this series, April dives into the five most common reasons new hires fail in small businesses — and, more importantly, how to stop repeating those mistakes. Drawing from Who, Topgrading, and real small-business case studies, she unpacks what actually derails your new hires: lack of clarity, rushed processes, weak onboarding, and the avoidance of tough calls. This episode is your small-business hiring playbook — practical, tough-love, and designed to help you build a team that performs, grows, and sticks around. Key Takeaways 1️⃣ No Clear Role or Scorecard Most small businesses hire for a vague "we need help" problem. Without a clear scorecard—outcomes and success metrics—your hire has no idea what winning looks like. 2️⃣ Culture Misfit In lean teams, one bad attitude can tank culture faster than any skill gap. Hire for values first, skills second. 3️⃣ Rushed or Poor Hiring Process Reactive hiring ("we need someone now") leads to "warm body" hires. Structure your process. Use reference checks, repeatable interview questions, and patience. 4️⃣ Lack of Onboarding & Milestones Even great hires fail without structure. 30/60/90-day milestones and regular check-ins are your early warning system. 5️⃣ Owner Avoidance of Tough Decisions Hanging onto a bad fit because of time or money invested only drains morale and momentum. Move on fast — sunk costs are still costs. The Pivot Playbook: How to Prevent Failures ✅ Build a Scorecard Before You Hire Define outcomes and success metrics before posting the job. ✅ Hire for Culture First, Skills Second A bad attitude sinks ships — values alignment keeps them sailing. ✅ Use a Structured Hiring Process Consistency beats gut feeling every time. ✅ Onboard With Milestones Weekly check-ins, clear feedback, and 90-day checkpoints create accountability. ✅ Fire Fast When It's Not Working Courage now prevents chaos later. Quotes "Good people want to know what it means to be good in your organization." "A-players crave clarity. If you don't define success, you can't expect them to deliver it." "The cost of keeping the wrong person is always higher than the cost of letting them go." Conclusion Bad hires aren't random — they're predictable. And if they're predictable, they're preventable. Define success. Protect your culture. Stay disciplined. That's how small businesses attract A-players and keep them.

In this episode we dive into the cultural shift that allows kids to hang up on their parents, unpack the cost of permissive parenting and explore the wound that turns boys into pleasers.

Key Takeaways from This Week's DiscussionETFs vs. Mutual Funds — Tax Efficiency MattersMutual funds often create higher annual taxes in taxable accounts. ETFs and index funds are more tax-efficient because of how they handle capital gains—saving investors up to 1% a year. Keep mutual funds inside IRAs to avoid unnecessary taxes.Equal-Weighted vs. Cap-Weighted PortfoliosThe Invesco Equal Weighted S&P 500 (RSP) holds the same 500 companies as the standard index but gives each stock equal weight. This creates different exposure and more turnover, yet the ETF version reduces the tax drag—a key advantage for long-term investors.Small-Cap Value Funds — Choosing the Right FitVBR (Vanguard) performs best when large-cap growth leads, while AVUV and DFSV outperform when smaller value companies rise. The lesson: size and style matter in long-term returns.The Power of Rebalancing & “Shannon's Demon”Mentioned by Bill Yount from the Catching Up to FI podcast,  Shannon's Demon illustrates how periodic rebalancing can turn volatility into profit. By selling high and buying low, you can enhance long-term performance while keeping risk in check.Morningstar Ratings — Don't Chase the StarsStar ratings mostly reflect recent trends, not future potential. Focus instead on the underlying asset class and decades of evidence, not last year's winners.Small-Cap Value Slump — Patience Pays OffSmall-cap value has struggled this year, but historically it offers one of the best long-term premiums. Remember: asset class selection drives up to 99% of overall portfolio performance.Risk Parity Portfolios — Balancing Risk the Smart WayPaul compared traditional diversification to risk parity, which balances exposure across stocks, bonds, and commodities. He prefers government bonds over commodities since bonds generate income and often rise when stocks fall.Diversifying Within an Asset ClassInstead of going “all or nothing,” you can hold multiple ETFs—like AVUV and DFSV—for extra balance within a category. Just keep the lineup manageable for your brokerage or platform.Factor Investing — What Really Drives ReturnsThe strongest long-term drivers are size and value. Momentum and quality can help, but smaller, cheaper companies historically deliver the best rewards.Growth Funds & Ten-Year PerformanceTen-year snapshots can mislead. From 2000 to 2025, small-cap value funds far outperformed growth and the S&P 500, showing the value premium remains powerful across full market cycles.S&P 500 vs. Total Market — Nearly Identical Over TimeSince 1928, returns differ by only 0.1%. The S&P's recent edge comes mainly from a handful of mega-cap tech stocks, not fundamental differences in the indexes.Hiring an Advisor — When It's Worth ItA skilled fiduciary advisor can help manage emotions, discipline, and rebalancing. If you struggle to stay consistent, professional guidance may be worth far more than the fee.The DIY Investor Myth — Overcoming Human Biases“No one cares more about your money than you” sounds good, but behavioral biases—recency, overconfidence, and loss aversion—can derail results. Automation or a trusted advisor can protect you. For more insight, see Paul Hayes' free book Spending Your Way to Wealth, especially the appendix on 48 investor biases.Thank you again for your time, attention, and thoughtful participation.

[04:33] Hal explains he learned the five minute rule at age 20 selling Cutco by feeling emotions for five minutes then saying "can't change it" and moving forward. [07:25] Hal recounts being hit by a drunk driver at 70 mph at age 20 where he broke 11 bones and died at the scene for six minutes but applied the five minute rule to accept his reality. [13:26] Hal confirms the five minute rule is the practical bridge to Viktor Frankl's concept of choosing one's attitude in any circumstance. [21:05] Hal explains the Miracle Morning program and why the morning routine is important for making every day your best day. [29:37] Hal shares that the expanded edition of his book adds 20 pages to the SAVERS section and two new chapters called the Miracle Evening and the Miracle Life. [33:00] Hal shares that he gives up three hours of work each day to drive his kids to school, choosing lasting memories with them over more book sales. [37:58] Hal explains that his experiences guide him toward a higher power's purpose and shares that his parents' response to his sister's death taught him to turn adversity into service. [43:12] Hal defines a good life as fulfilling your potential in service of others by showing up as your best self every day from a place of love. [46:16] And remember…"When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love." - Marcus Aurelius Quotable Quotes "It's okay to be negative and get upset when things don't go your way, but do not dwell on it for an extended period of time." "Set your timer for five minutes and give yourself five minutes to feel your emotions fully. Don't suppress them, don't try to act the way you think you should. Bitch, moan, complain, cry, vent, whatever you gotta do." "Every painful emotion that we experienced was self created by our resistance to our reality." "The last of man's freedoms, is to choose one's own attitude in any given set of circumstances." "You cannot change reality in this moment as it exists. You can only do things in this moment to change the next moment or the moment after that." "I believe that we create our own statistics." "Your level of success will seldom exceed your level of personal development." "If you win the morning, you win the day because you're putting yourself in a peak physical, mental, emotional and spiritual state." "Family men with businesses, not businessmen with families." (Front Row Dads tagline) "Everything you've been through is intentional and it's part of your journey, so you can help as many people as you possibly can." "Every day you wake up and you ask like, what's the best version of myself today? How can I show up at my best? How can I fulfill my limitless God given potential today?It's fulfilling your potential in service of others."

MAXOUT Your Mind Masterclass: Protect Your Peace Have you ever noticed how quickly your peace can disappear the moment someone cuts you off in traffic or a negative comment shows up online? In this episode of the MAXOUT Your Mind Masterclass, I'm taking you deep into one of the most important lessons I've ever learned: how to protect your peace and preserve your bliss no matter what's happening around you. Because the truth is, the quality of your life is the quality of your emotions. If you're constantly surrendering your peace to external circumstances or difficult people, you're never really in control of your life. I share personal stories that made me stop and ask myself, Who's really winning the game of life? The one with the mansion or the one with peace? I talk about the time I stayed calm in traffic when someone tried to provoke me, and another moment that challenged me to respond with grace instead of judgment. These experiences taught me that emotional mastery isn't about avoiding chaos, it's about remaining steady in it. Real strength is when your external world doesn't get to dictate your internal state. In this Masterclass, I walk you through how to identify the people, thoughts, and habits that are stealing your bliss and how to reclaim it. I'll show you the exact exercise I used to create two lists: one for what feeds my peace and another for what drains it. From there, I share the surprising things that elevate my state of bliss like being outdoors, moving my body, listening to worship music, and cutting 85% of the noise from my social media and news intake. These small shifts can change everything about how you experience your life. The goal isn't to live in a bubble where nothing challenges you. Life will always bring problems, stress, and uncertainty. But when you learn to stay grounded in grace and gratitude through it all, you step into a level of peace that can't be shaken. You become the thermostat, not the thermometer. And that's when you start to truly MAXOUT your mind, your relationships, and your joy. Key Takeaways: How to protect your peace and preserve your bliss in a chaotic world Why emotional mastery is the foundation of success and fulfillment How to identify what (and who) steals your peace and reduce their power by 85% The surprising habits that feed your inner joy and raise your emotional thermostat Why serving others and extending grace is the fastest path to restoring peace Your peace is sacred.
