This week we sit down with Maryland O-lineman Isaiah Wright to discuss how he modeled his recovery after Kobe Bryant and what he learned on the sidelines last year. As always we breakdown this week in UMD sports.
In this episode, I'm breaking down how extremity becomes identity. When you live at the very edge of your craft, you stand apart from the dabblers who only do it halfway. I share how, back in my basketball days, players admired Kobe Bryant's extreme work ethic even though most couldn't match it. To make something part of your identity, you don't have to be the only one doing it, you just have to take it further than anyone else. I'll explain how to push to that level so your extreme becomes who you are. Show Notes: [03:07]#1 Things you do at the extreme are how people come to define you. [10:47]#2 Repetition at the edges forces recognition. [17:54]#3 Extremity creates separation. [25:28]Recap Next Steps: ---
Do Business. Do Life. — The Financial Advisor Podcast — DBDL
Michael Jordan. Kobe Bryant. Two of the greatest to ever play the game.But what set them apart wasn't just physical talent, it was the mental game. The mindset that pushes past pain, silences doubt, and wins long after the body wants to quit. They had an obsession to improve, to compete, and to dominate at the highest level. Where exactly does that come from?Well, one guy who had a lot to do with it is Tim Grover — the world-class performance coach who trained Jordan, Kobe, and a long list of other legends.And here's why this matters to you as a financial advisor: the mindset that creates champions on the court is the same mindset that creates champions in business. Effort and skill will only take you so far. To break through to that next level, you've got to master your mental game.Today, Tim joins the podcast to share some incredible stories from his days training with Jordan and Kobe — and more importantly, how you can take their winning mindset and apply it to your own life and business to go from good, to great, to mastery. 5 of the biggest insights from Tim Grover…#1.) The Hidden Power of Brutal Self-HonestyKobe Bryant kept a private notebook of self-critiques—every weakness, every flaw, every mistake. The willingness to confront hard truths gave him the mental edge that separates legends from everyone else.#2.) How Michael Jordan Chose His TrainerTim's career changed forever when Michael Jordan gave him a shot. The story of how he landed MJ—and kept him as a client for 15 years—shows what it really takes to earn the trust of the best.#3.) Why Mastery Requires Constant EvolutionGoing from good to great isn't the finish line. The greats keep deleting old habits, adding new skills, and reinventing themselves in pursuit of mastery.#4.) From ‘I' to ‘We': The Real Leadership ShiftJordan and Kobe both had to learn that championships aren't won by a single star—they're won when leaders elevate the entire team to play at their level.#5.) Your Most Valuable Commodity: HeartbeatsTim says the true measure of wealth isn't money, it's how you spend your finite heartbeats. Once they're gone, they're gone—so where you invest them matters more than anything.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/133FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: Get copies of Tim's book, "Relentless" OR "Winning" [while supplies last]To get access to today's free gift AND become a DBDL Insider with VIP access to future resources and exclusive content, text "133" to 785-800-3235. *Message and data rates may apply.

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dig deep into the realities of business coaching success, coaching mistakes, and personal development. Karl unpacks why “regret” is a bigger fear than failure, what every personal development program gets right, and how “cloning” proven models can dramatically accelerate your business results. The duo also address the dangers of perfectionism, misconceptions like the 10,000-hour rule, and the powerful role of AI and feedback loops in building a bulletproof coaching practice. Key Topics Covered Finding Peace, Not Just Happiness Karl explains why chasing happiness can be a losing game for coaches and business owners, and why “peace” is far more sustainable and powerful. Quotes, Regret, and Success Mindset The hosts riff on the difference between those who achieve and those who sustain, highlighting why ultimate respect is given to those who keep what they earn, not just those who made it big. Personal Development's Core Lesson Across all major personal growth books and courses, Karl asserts that the key pattern is the clarity of knowing exactlywhat you want. He illustrates this with Kobe Bryant's mindset and decision-making, showing how crystal-clear goals make big choices almost automatic. Business “Hacks” for Coaches Karl introduces the concept of “asymmetrical risk/reward”—making moves where success is massive but failure is minor. He shares practical examples like cloning proven coaching or business models and using AI for rapid insight. Debunking Industry Myths Classic ideas like the 10,000-hour rule and habitual work from “Atomic Habits” are challenged. Karl suggests that deliberate, focused repetitions and an effective feedback loop matter more than raw time spent. The Wardrobe of Identities Karl shares a robust metaphor: Instead of being stuck with a single identity (entrepreneur, technician, or manager), successful business owners and coaches should wear these “hats” like different clothes, adapting as needed. Mistakes Coaches Make Neglecting brand in favor of pure direct response marketing. Relying too much on new, untested ideas instead of “cloning” what already works. Getting too attached to a single identity or role. Failing to leverage AI and modern technology. Confusing habits with true, intentional skill development. The Power of “Cloning” Whether you're a landscaper or a high-end consultant, Karl stresses the immense gains in modeling what market leaders are doing—right down to their offers, marketing, and client strategies. There's no need to reinvent the wheel. Notable Quotes “Don't idolize a billionaire for their wins. Model their behavior for when they lose.” “You can get lucky and make it, but you can't get lucky and keep it.” “You only lose when you quit trying.” “The highest respect isn't paid to those who have made it. The highest respect is paid to those who have made it—and kept it.” “If you don't know where you're going, any road will get you there.” “Trial and error is probably one of the worst strategies ever in business.” “Cloning is not stealing, it's smart business.” Actionable Takeaways 1. Clone Proven Success Study, model, and adapt winning strategies from market leaders in your industry instead of trying to create something totally new from scratch. 2. Define Your Vision Like Kobe Bryant, be laser clear about what you want—then make every decision through the filter of that goal. 3. Use Asymmetrical Risk/Reward Pursue strategies with big upside and minimal downside; don't bet the farm on a single unproven idea. 4. Leverage AI for Growth Tap into AI tools to accelerate research, streamline your operations, and spot opportunities competitors miss. 5. Don't Chase Perfection Launch fast, learn quickly, and adjust as you go. Perfectionism is just disguised procrastination. 6. Beware the 10,000-Hour Myth Focus on intentional reps and feedback, not clocking mindless hours. 7. Wear Multiple Hats Move fluidly between entrepreneur, technician, and manager modes. Don't lock in to a single “identity.” Resources Mentioned Profit Acceleration Software™ (by Karl Bryan) – for modeling and accelerating business profits AI Coach Assist (Focused.com) – AI-powered business coaching assistance Books Referenced: Atomic Habits by James Clear The E-Myth by Michael Gerber Money: Master the Game by Tony Robbins Networking & Business Groups: Chambers of Commerce, BNI AI Tools: ChatGPT, GROK The Six-Figure Coach Magazine: Get Your Free Subscription If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, share, and leave a review!

Joy Taylor sits down with legendary fashion designer Jeff Hamilton, the man behind the most iconic jackets in NBA history. From Michael Jordan's three-peat Bulls to Kobe Bryant's unforgettable championship moment, Jeff's work has defined the culture of basketball, hip-hop, and fashion for decades. In this exclusive interview, Jeff opens up about: Designing the legendary Kobe Bryant championship jacket and why it became the most famous piece in sports fashion history. How Michael Jordan's jackets became more than clothes — they became trophies. His deep ties with NBA legends, hip-hop icons, and cultural figures like LeBron James, Nelson Mandela, Rihanna, Drake, Billy Idol, and more. The struggles he faced after selling his company, hitting rock bottom, and how Kobe's passing reignited his passion. Why being an immigrant fueled his hunger for success and how he views his legacy today. The balance between creativity, discipline, and authenticity in an industry built on hype. Jeff Hamilton's story is one of resilience, creativity, and cultural impact. Whether you're a fan of NBA history, streetwear fashion, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, or hip-hop culture, this conversation will inspire you.
In part four of the Sports Cards Live stream from Saturday, August 23, 2025, the Jordan–Kobe Dual Logoman Exquisite Autograph surges past the $10 million mark live on air, ultimately climbing toward its record-breaking $12M+ finish. Jeremy, Brent Weyer, and Chris McGill track the drama in real time, unpacking what the sale means for grading, rarity, and the psychology of high-stakes bidding. The discussion ranges from the legitimacy of “manufactured rarity” to whether grade even matters for a one-of-one grail. The panel also wrestles with a central hobby question: if Michael Jordan is clearly No. 1, who is No. 2? Names like Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Tom Brady are all debated as the community weighs legacy, market caps, and cultural impact. Highlights include: The Jordan–Kobe Logoman breaking into 8-figure territory live on Sports Cards Live Manufactured rarity vs. organic rarity in the hobby Does grade matter at all for one-of-ones? Ego, status, and trophy bidding in high-end auctions The debate over who ranks No. 2 after Michael Jordan — Mantle, Ruth, LeBron, Kobe, Brady, or someone else? Shaq's surprising hobby index strength and whether undervalued stars ever catch up This was one of the most electric hobby nights in recent memory — and Sports Cards Live was right there with the audience as history unfolded.

Nabs Spec Script About Lakers Star's Dramatic Draft Day Two men were arrested for allegedly breaking and entering into Paycor Stadium, with one facing charges for attempting to steal a barbecue smoker. In a city known for strip club culture as much as music, massive conventions, and global sporting events, Midtown's The Cheetah lounge has stood as a nondescript, risqué stalwart along Spring Street for decades. But that's set to change soon, developers tell Urbanize Atlanta.

I interviewed Jimmy Soni, who is currently writing a book about Kobe Bryant. He spent six years on his previous book about the origin story of PayPal and has mastered the art of investigative biography. We talked about his 4am writing routine, how he blends research and writing to battle writers block, why he finds the best stories by talking to people on the periphery, his thoughts on using AI as a writing tool, and his experience creating a new publishing company. If you're interested in writing better non-fiction, doing deeper research, or finding the stories everyone else misses, this conversation will show you exactly how to do that. Hey! I'm David Perell and I'm a writer, teacher, and podcaster. I believe writing online is one of the biggest opportunities in the world today. For the first time in human history, everybody can freely share their ideas with a global audience. I seek to help as many people publish their writing online as possible.

Edwin Hodge finds out in this middle grade novel by Dan Gutman, bestselling author of My Weird School series. There were so many things Edwin Hodge didn't know when he paid $10 for a cool poster of Kobe Bryant at the local flea market. He didn't know that hidden within the frame of the poster was an original drawing by Pablo Picasso, one of the most famous artists in history. He didn't know the Picasso might be worth millions of dollars. He didn't know that kids at school were going to treat him differently, or that he would become a world famous social media superstar. And he sure didn't know that people would tap his phone, follow him home, break into his house, or threaten to burn it down. He didn't know the Picasso was going to ruin his life.
