Doug interviews Anmol Singh, trader and investor and author of Prepping for Success. Singh talks about goal setting including breaking down big goals into actionable steps and maintaining integrity with yourself. From visualising success on his university vision board to now living that reality in New York City, Singh reveals how proper goal setting transformed his life. He also shares how to eliminate decision fatigue, outsource tasks and how to find the balance between wealth and health. KEY TAKEAWAYS Set clear goals and break them down into smaller, achievable steps rather than overwhelming yourself with one massive goal. Singh visualised his New York life on a vision board in university, then broke down exactly what he needed to do to get there. Professional traders decide when to exit a trade before they enter it, establishing both target prices and stop loss levels to remove emotion from decision making and limit potential losses. Integrity is the foundation of success, do what you said you're going to do when you said you're going to do it. The gap between stated intentions and actual actions represents a lack of integrity that prevents goal achievement. Schedule your goals and tasks in a calendar to ensure they get done. Things that aren't scheduled will be replaced by other activities, while scheduled tasks have dedicated time for completion. Eliminate decision fatigue by outsourcing or systematising low value tasks like choosing what to wear, meal planning and household chores, preserving mental energy for important decisions. True success isn't just financial wealth but balance across health, wealth, love, and happiness. Many people focus exclusively on financial success while neglecting other crucial areas of life. Combat the learning loop trap where people continuously consume information without applying it. Knowledge without application is just information hoarding, applied knowledge is what creates results. Trading isn't as glamorous as portrayed in movies. It's mostly about analysing charts, numbers, and spreadsheets. The realistic goal isn't becoming a billionaire hedge fund manager but developing consistent profitable strategies. BEST MOMENTS "When you lose exactly what you plan for, there's no uncertainty, there's no fear. 'Cause you already accepted that risk before you got into it." " I had the whole phase of buying a Ferrari and all of that and putting up pictures, and then you realise after you get a little bit older, what's the point of all of that?" "Think about how much your life, our lives, all of our lives would be different if we did every single thing we said we're gonna do and we did it when we said we're gonna do it." "I'd rather you read one book 10 times and apply it into your life than say you've read a hundred different books."

Being a dad doesn't stop when your kids grow up. As Reverend Elmo Winters shares in this episode, your kids constantly watch what you do, so the example you set will shape their future. Tune in to hear an important conversation about intentionality, racial reconciliation, and kingdom-focused living.    Key Takeaways   Set a good example for your kids by walking out what you talk about.  Everyone needs someone in their life to call out and draw out what they can't see in themselves.  Be open-minded, quick to listen, and slow to speak—regardless of another person's race or culture.  Most fathers around the world want the same thing: to provide, to give advice, to be respected, and to be a good leader.  Never put ministry or the church above your family.   Elmo Winters   Reverend Elmo Winters, MBA, has served in ministry for over 43 years, including his current role as Executive Director of the KINGDOM Group International, Inc. He travels the world, training and speaking to churches, ministries, and men's groups on unity and reconciliation issues. Reverend Winters is married to Therese Winters. They have three sons, two daughters, and nine grandchildren.   Key Quotes   17:44 - "I've learned to be quick, quick, quick to listen and slow to speak. Regardless of who you are encountering, regardless of what culture they're from, I believe we can learn from others. We can learn a lot from other people. I love cultures. I love different people. It's important that when we speak that we need to understand that our words have power. The Word of God says that we have in our tongue the power of life and death. So when we speak before young men, ladies in our families, your daughters, you ought to be speaking life, speaking positively.

 In this episode, Cheryl and Josh discuss: Be a good boss to yourself Creating a comfortable workspace Going back to the well and finding it empty The two things you need to master  Key Takeaways: Set up an executive meeting with no one invited but yourself. Put your life into perspective. Ask yourself the things that you must accomplish in order to live the life that you want to live.  Create a comfortable workspace for yourself. Your whole career and your whole business rely on you to be functioning properly and sustainably. Invest in a comfortable chair or a great table, and take care of yourself so that you can take care of everything else.  We put a ton of pressure on ourselves because we've seen it work in our careers. We go to that well and draw more out of it and unfortunately, sometimes we go back to that well and it'll have nothing more to give.  Know what to do and have the discipline to do it even if you don't feel like it. Do these two things, and you'll be a multi-millionaire in any career.   “You are your primary piece of production equipment.”  —  Josh Cadillac Connect with Josh Cadillac:Website: https://www.acecloser.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshcadillac/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/joshdcadillac/        Get in Touch with Cheryl: Website: www.cherylknows.com  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwvWKXBC6fKn1dLGY11hxIg Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dynamiteproductionsinc LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cherylknowlton/   Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine Talla Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. Today we are joined by personal trainer and weight loss expert, Chad Tackett. Chad is an online personal trainer and weight loss coach, helping his clients condition their metabolism for ultimate weight loss.

Tune in today to learn simple and convenient ways to set yourself up for successful weight loss and health.IN THIS EPISODE:●   [5:07] Chad tells us his story and how he got into online coaching.●   [7:15] Why don't diets work? ●   [9:42] What does it mean to condition your metabolism? ●   [11:19] How does someone figure out the right foods at the right time? ●   [14:22] Is there a “right time of day” to eat carbs?●   [16:10] How do people figure out the right balance for themselves? ●   [19:50] How does fitness condition our metabolism? ●   [23:20] How do people stay motivated during this time of year?●   [26:08] How does Chad help people stay on track when temptations are around? ●   [30:05] What good “reward” ideas can people use when they hit a milestone?●   [31:00] What does Chad think about resolutions and handling the holiday season?  KEY TAKEAWAYS:●   Set yourself up for success; make it simple and convenient, and make it fit well with your lifestyle. ●   Carbs are essential for weight loss.

Even if the movement is the same, use other equipment to help your muscles improve each time. This enables you to stay away from a plateau.QUOTES: “If it's not something you can do for the rest of your life, like, what's the point of even starting because the weight's just gonna come right back.” - Chad Tackett“The more muscle you have, the stronger your body is, the more calories you just naturally burn, even when you're just sleeping.” - Chad Tackett“Do cardiovascular exercises in between your sets. So if you're doing a set of bicep curls, for example, where you're training your biceps, between your next set, just do something to keep your heart rate up because your heart rate is staying up from doing the bicep curl. Instead of letting it go back down and taking that minute or two of rest instead, just march in place, do jumping jacks or one of the other simple cardiovascular exercise movements that we're doing, so that by the time you've done all your resistance training movements, you've gotten your resistance training done, but you've also got cardiovascular training done as well by keeping your heart rate up.” - Chad TackettRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramGUEST RESOURCES:Committed 100 Facebook PageChad Tackett's TikTokChad's FreebieGUEST BIO:Chad has a degree in Exercise Science, Health, & Nutrition from Oregon State University.He's been a certified personal trainer & weight loss expert for almost 30 years.Chad started the world's very first online weight loss program in 1995.And he's been featured in more than 100 books, radio, and TV shows.

In this episode, we discuss: The most important technique for being safe, our first line of defense What happens in the absence of boundaries Setting firm boundaries  Defending yourself when somebody crosses your boundaries and knowing when your boundaries are violated   Key Takeaways: Set and defend firm boundaries, it will prevent attacks. Setting boundaries is our right. Our ability to set them is what makes us far less vulnerable to intrusion, manipulation, or attacks.  Predators and abusers see the absence of boundaries as a power vacuum - weak boundaries is what they look for. If somebody intrudes on your boundaries, it's not your fault. But it's your right and your responsibility to set boundaries. Acknowledge your intuition if something doesn't feel right. Assert your feelings to someone who's making you feel uncomfortable, and get ready to back up that assertion because it will be challenged.  Predators are looking for a way to control and get to someone's mind; small acts of denial of their control can save your life. Assert your limits, speak firmly.  Setting boundaries is our first line of defense, if a predator crosses that, you have to take further actions to defend yourself. Yell, tell them to back away. If that doesn't work, prepare to defend yourself physically.    "Setting limits around our mind, our authority, our sense of self, it's what keeps us intact as having the ownership over our own lives and determining what's around us." —  Cynthia Jolicoeur   CONNECT WITH CYNTHIA: If you'd like to chat with Cynthia, sign up for your Personal Safety Preparedness Consultation with her today!

RPB002 - Solidifying Your First Week Strategies to Build a Successful Real Estate Business Welcome back to FlipTalk’s Rookie Play Book podcast. In our last episode, we went over what new investors should focus on during their first week as a real estate investor and discussed the topics of wholesaling, common mistakes new investors make, the importance of knowing how to use the MLS, and why networking is critical. On this week’s episode, Don and Ryan discuss the importance of setting goals on paper, how you can work on and behind the MLS, and why knowing your market should be considered a top priority above all. They also explain what real networking is, what it takes to build a good networking relationship, and why it’s not just handing out business cards to everyone you meet.   “You have to network with intention. You have to do everything with intention.” – Ryan Scialabba   This Week on FlipTalk’s Rookie Play Book: How should you plan for your marketing? What true networking looks like. How to make yourself stand out when handing out business cards. Why being new doesn't mean you don't have anything to bring to the table. The importance of finding out about your market through conversation. Can you have too much information when you're starting out? How important are the numbers in your second week of business? Why it's tough to determine the value of certain neighborhoods. Why you shouldn't be spending money right now.   Key Takeaways: Set your goals now so you start becoming purposeful in your real estate journey. Networking means building relationships. Go into a deal with confidence. You may run into some negativity during the first couple of weeks, especially when you're out there finding the realities of the markets. There's no better people to do business with than those you've been doing business with for a long time.   Rate, Review, Learn and Share Thanks for tuning into the FlipTalk podcast!

Shereen shares what she learned at this conference for YouTube and TikTok influencers.    Big shout out to the UK and Zimbabwe where Creative Breakthrough is trending, as is both episodes with Maaza Mengiste! Thank you for listening and sharing!   This week we were supposed to talk to Jeff Friday, the Founder of the American Black Film Festival.  However due to travel issues it is postponed until next week.  If you have questions for Jeff, email me at hi@funnybrowngirl.com   We are now on episode 47 of the Creative Breakthrough Podcast! These episodes take a lot of time, energy and love to make.  As well as funds for new equipment, hosting fees, and website maintenance.  If you are enjoying this podcast, please support my creative journey by donating your next cup of coffee to me.  You can do this easily with Paypal or Credit Card at www.ko-fi.com/funnybrowngirl  Your donation will go a long way!   Last weekend, I attended the Playlist Live Conference in Orlando, Florida   What is Playlist Live? It is an annual convention primarily for YouTube content creators, though this year I feel there were just as many TikTok creators and podcasters.  The convention is held annually since 2010.   Playlist Live’s programming is divided into three different tracks The Community Track is best suited for fans of Youtuber creators. The panels on this track consist of creators talking about various lifestyle topics. These topics include mental health, staying motivated and LGBTQ life. The Insight Track is created for current and aspiring YouTube content creators. The panels are geared toward teaching guests how to make a living from making YouTube videos. The Industry Track is for guests who currently work in the media industry. This track benefits marketers, managers, agents, producers, etc. This track goes in depth of the technicalities of the business realm.   I checked out all the different tracks as I had an all-access pass.    Observational takeaways of the panelists: (Important if you aspire to be a speaker or panelist in your creative field) Be prepared. The questions were provided in advance. You should not be stumped Have confidence and presence Dress the part   Motivation and the Creative Process Creators shared tips about what goes into their creative process that keeps them inspired and motivated. Speakers: SuperMarioLogan, LeeThe4th, and one other guy   Key Takeaways: Set aside time to write down ideas so when you have writer’s block you can still create content Aim to make the fans happy and do not chase fame or money Be consistent with putting out content Most ideas have been done before. Look at old videos and see how you can make them better or more relevant Don’t do it for the money (Lamborghini) Do what makes you happy Create content that you love If you feel burnt out, try something new in your life, like travel or skydiving for a new perspective Treat it like a job Before you launch, have ideas in your back pocket so you can stay on a schedule   How to Build Your Personal Brand How do you build a brand that is authentic and resonates with your viewers?  Speakers: Alex Ojeda, Cosette Rinab, Jay Mendoza   Most of the panelists were TikTokers.  Formerly known as musical.ly, TikTok is a social media platform for creating, sharing and discovering short music videos, think Karaoke for the digital age.  However, other than dancing videos which are carefully synchronized, there are skits, travel, fashion, and beauty videos on the platform.  The majority of the videos are 15 second long, but can be as long as 1 minute.  If you are looking for quick entertainment, this is the platform for you.    Key Takeaways:   Make your brand consistent across all your videos.  All your videos should have a similar vibe.  If you want to be family friendly, then all your content should be family friendly Being family friendly will open more doors with brands and sponsors Be genuine. People want to see the real you.  Don’t sacrifice your authenticity Create what make you happy and what you believe in. People can tell Don’t try to satisfy everyone People don’t know you so don’t let their negative comments bring you down. Be unapologetically you. Make other people’s ideas better. It’s not stealing, it’s inspiration to grow Don’t compare yourself to other people Don’t be scared to post. You have nothing to lose.  Post consistently; however, remember its quality over quantity. Care about what you put out there   Production 101 I stopped by this panel because JP Lambiase from episode 45 of the Creative Breakthrough podcast was on this panel.  Growing a social media channel or page can seem pretty hard. This panel will discuss what goes into creating content that stands out, what you need in terms of equipment, editing tips, what you should be thinking about, and general best practices for building an audience.    Speakers: JP Lambiase, Julia Goolia, Legendary Shots, Most Amazing, Information Overload, Jonathan Paula, and Ben De Almeida   Key Takeaways: Make your idea unique by bringing in your personality and unique perspective If you have an idea do your due diligence before you start to see who else has done it and how you can make it better. Don’t worry if the idea has been done before, put your own spin on it and make it better Highlight your strengths in your content, so that you can continue making quality content and not get stuck. e. if you’re not a singer, don’t make a singing podcast. You will get stuck real quick.  The more you put out there, the more opportunities you will have Don’t have high expectations. Remember, everyone started at the bottom and now they’re here…meaning on this panel Find something you enjoy, otherwise it becomes work Passion shows through your work, so make sure you enjoy it Soul search – find what you are strong at and what you enjoy doing Remember, it has never been easier to create content and to be seen, so what are you waiting on? You don’t need any fancy equipment to get started, your cell phone has a camera, editing tools, and filters. You’re ready now.   Finding Your Place How to carve out a special place for yourself, your content, and your communities in the sea of creators and platforms. Speakers: Drew Lynch, Fur, Hannah Forcier, Sarah Lugor, Supdaily, syd’s vids   Find what you do well, hone in on that, repeat it, and refine it Do not follow a formula Develop your own voice and style   Expanding Your Creative Career These creators started out on one platform but have been able to translate their success onto different platforms, verticals, gigs, jobs, and more Speakers: Mark Daniel, Brandi Marie King, Shark Puppet, The Ballinger Family, Thomas Hayden sWooZie   Find what platform works for you – podcast, YouTube, blogging Make sure your content represents you If you are aiming for an entertainment career, showcase your skills online. For example, one woman wanted to be a TV host so she began making YouTube videos to showcase her skill set.  Another person put his magic tricks online and now travels the world doing magic Treat your content as if your grandma is watching or listening if your goal is to acquire sponsors Don’t worry about views and numbers Focus on engagement Experiment and try different types of content Don’t let bad experiences or comments demotivate you, learn from them Do not be afraid to evolve Understand your priorities, meaning how do you prioritize your content versus your family or how do you prioritize making content you enjoy versus money Battling Burnout Coping with feelings that come with content curation challenges Speakers: Brandon Baldwin, Emzotic, Jonathan Paula, Kati Morton, Rhino   Burnout effects everyone. Everyone on the panel agreed they had felt burnout at some point in their career Learn to put yourself first Have patience with the process Don’t let others bring you down Do what you love   Pushing Through Sometimes what you’re working on doesn’t perform as you wanted it to, or something didn’t turn out how you expected.  Hear how these creators stay motivated through the ups and downs of life and work.   Speakers: EnochTrue, Hailey Reese, Mark Daniel, Slice N Rice, Vanessa Nagoya   Keep reading about changes in the algorithms on Google, YouTube, Instagram, etc. Remember even influencers videos don’t always perform well Keep a running list of ideas for when you have writers’ block Find new ideas in the comment sections of your content and other people’s content Remember why you started making and putting content out - the joy, the passion, the love   One question that people kept asking the panelist – How do you deal with negative comments?     Key takeaways from the entire conference: Do what you love and do it for love, not for money Stay consistent Have fun!   Listen on Apple Podcasts, Soundcloud, Stitcher and Google Play Click here to subscribe via RSS feed (non-iTunes feed): https://funnybrowngirl.libsyn.com/rss   Announcements If you’re looking for a community of supportive creative entrepreneurs to elevate your journey to the next level, join me here: https://funnybrowngirl.com/facebook Subscribe to my newsletter of creative resources, including opportunities and fellowships at https://funnybrowngirl.com/subscribe    Social Media Info Connect Online:   Shereen Kassam – www.funnybrowngirl.com   Twitter: Shereen Kassam - @funnybrowngirl   Instagram Shereen Kassam - @funnybrowngirl   YouTube Shereen Kassam - @funnybrowngirl   TikTok Shereen Kassam - @funnybrowngirl   #CreativeBreakthrough #CreativeBreakthroughPodcast #CreativeBT

Just got back from a working retreat with my business partners, Yves and Jerred, where we knocked out our quarterly planning. Jerred led an awesome exercise I want to share. If you are not tracking and planning in your business, you are driving blind. This simple framework can give you clarity and help you make serious progress in the next 90 days, maybe even double your revenue. As a profession, we are often great clinicians but terrible at business. This planning process is a learnable skill, just like dry needling.

Chris Surdak is an award winning author, futurist, technologist and former rocket scientist.  Chris writes about technology disruption and help companies navigate the accelerating changes around us. Show notes at http://hellotechpros.com/chris-surdak-leadership/  Key Takeaways Set a longterm goal with meticulous planning, be flexible to change in the future, monitor along the way, and be open to frequent fast failure. Don’t be afraid to be wrong or make a mistake. Look at the bigger picture and outcomes that employees generate before nitpicking the operational metrics. We need destructive, disruptive innovation, but it’s harder to implement than incremental change. If you want to start innovating, you have to stop improving. You can assume that your ability to improve your business is good. Identify the exceptions and outliers and focus on improving them. In what circumstances do you want your employees to make a judgment call and “break” the rules for the betterment of the organization? We have transitioned through 2 trinities of power. The Analog Trinity was about bureaucracy, process and rules. It was about growing capital. The Digital Trinity now consists of mobility, social media and analytics. It is about growing information. The millennial generation naturally understands the Digital Trinity but the Analog generations need to learn to adapt. Everything that we’ve done to be successful in our past careers is now “wrong.” In an age of disruption, if you’re comfortable you’re getting something wrong. You have a 98% of getting it wrong and a 2% chance of getting it right.
