In this thought-provoking episode of Shark Theory, host Baylor Barbee dives deep into the themes of ambition, love, and personal growth. Through a personal anecdote about a long-term relationship that ended due to his myopic pursuit of success, Baylor explores the dangers of unchecked ambition. He reflects on the tendency to delay personal connections for future accomplishments, and the toll this mindset can have on relationships. Ambition without direction can be detrimental, warns Baylor, as he shares the importance of having a clear action plan to accompany one's dreams. He discusses the pitfalls of thinking that success must be achieved alone and highlights the value of bringing supportive people along on one's journey. Themes of resilience, learning from loss, and using setbacks as building blocks toward a better future are woven throughout the episode. Baylor's message is clear: focus not just on the destination but also on appreciating and learning from the journey, including its inevitable lows and lost connections. Key Takeaways: Blind ambition can lead to personal and relational loss if not accompanied by a focused direction and action plan. It is essential to include others in your journey toward success rather than striving to achieve alone. Facing losses in life—whether people or business opportunities—ought to be viewed as learning experiences that contribute to personal development. Embrace the setbacks in life as they can shape the foundation of a better, more informed future. Opportunities for growth often come from picking up the pieces after setbacks and building upon the hard-learned lessons. Notable Quotes: "A goal without an action plan is known to others simply as a lie." "At the end of the day, we're all gonna be shattered. But what it's our responsibility to do is to pick up the pieces." "You lose people, but you don't have to lose the lesson." "Be sure that you're not falling into the trap of thinking, I have to do it for them." "Ask yourself, can I become a pro at picking up the pieces?"

JMU Can Learn Lessons From Liberty For Showdown At Marshall + Fast 5 by Ed Lane
Learn Lessons from Nick Saban, championship coach of the Alabama Crimson Tide Football team, on halftime adjustments he makes to dominate the 2nd half of games. Trade Show University founder and host, Jim Cermak, helps exhibitors and show planners understand how to take those lessons and use them for Victories at upcoming tradeshows and events!Watch this video on the Trade Show University YouTube Channel - and Subscribe!https://www.youtube.com/@tradeshowuniversityNick Saban is known by some as the most successful second half coach in football history, because he knows how to make adjustments.So that's, we're going to learn today is what does he do at halftime that you can learn about your trade shows and adjustments you can make and learn from him. So you could have an amazing show, not just the beginning of the show, but the end of the show as well.Nick was recently interviewed and someone asked him, what is your key to success coming out from halftime? Especially there's times you're, you're dominated in the first half and how do you come back and end up winning time and time again.1) You've got to have Good information. That means you've got to have good data. You've got to be paying attention. What is happening when you're engaging with attendees? Are they reacting positively to the questions you are asking them? Which part of your booth are they being gravitated to? or are they not being drawn to your booth at all?At some point you've got to Call timeout, get your team together. If it's a multi day show, it's at the end of that first day to make sure everyone is on board and you can find out what's going, what's working, what isn't, and how do you make those halftime adjustments?2) You need to give assignments. Everyone should have something that they're responsible for, for keeping track of, have one person whose assignment is where are people drawn to, where are they naturally walking up to in your booth? Who are they naturally walking up to? What kind of questions are working and which ones are not working? What things are people resonating with and which ones are they not? Are they loving your giveaways? You've got to give assignments to each person in your booth and have them responsible for paying attention So you can get good data good information.3) You need to adjust what's not working and double down on what is just what's not working and double down on what is.If something's not working, you got to mix it up, you got to have different people out front trying different things, adjusting your people, the literature, what is going on in your booth. Adjust the questions that you're asking people so that you can have better results. And if something's working, do more of it. 4) Change things up day two. Well, he, he didn't say change things up day two. That's me saying it. What he said was have a game plan ready to start the second half, even before the game. So he said, every coach has those. First, so many plays that they run at the beginning of a, of a game.And you should have a set number of plays ready to run at the beginning of the second half. Now you may make adjustments and say, Oh, based on what we saw in the first half, we're not going to run this play these plays in the second half, but you got to have that in your back pocket so that you're not spending a whole lot of time trying to figure out what's next.You could already have that game plan. And so by me saying change things up Day two. If you're in a multi day show, at the beginning of the second day, you completely change things up. Maybe you have different pull up banners, different display pieces or literature out. Maybe you have a completely...
** Replay of Episode 11 with David Mammano, December 27, 2022** One of the things that scares people from being entrepreneurs is the uncertainty of what can happen. But it's all part of the fun! The ability to fail and fail forward is what sets successful people apart. In today's episode, Adam Hill speaks with David Mammano about overcoming fear and failure as an entrepreneur. David is an entrepreneur and a teacher of entrepreneurs. He's a writer about entrepreneurs and a speaker about entrepreneurs. It's obvious he loves the entrepreneurial life. David is the founder of seven businesses, a three-time Inc Magazine 5000 growth company winner, a two-time TEDx speaker, and an adjunct professor at the University of Rochester in New York. He now leads the YOUtopia, a network that helps entrepreneurs to grow and connect. He's also the host of the highly acclaimed podcast, “The Gonzo Experience”, and author of three books, including his most recent bestseller CRASH and LEARN: Lessons in Business. Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: David's career background from a radio job to a magazine business Failure is giving up Seeing the light at the end of the COVID tunnel Getting out of the fear What prompted him to write a book David's version of “crash and learn” Getting good at mitigating risks as an entrepreneur Finding the balance between a setback and a failure Episode Highlights: [08:29] Failure is Giving Up As an entrepreneur, it's important to have a growth mindset, seeing failure as giving up. If your business doesn't go well the first time, then start creating a second business. If it fails again, then do a third business – until you get it. Failure is when you decide to give up and stop being an entrepreneur, and you stop doing what you're doing. Having this kind of mindset develops persistence. [19:33] Getting Out of The Fear A lot of people let fear be an obstacle to achieving their best. One of the ways we can get out of that fear is to find a community of like-minded people that are going through the same thing and inspire each other to push through perceived obstacles. Mastermind groups like YOUtopia bring in speakers who are going to inspire people to realize that these barriers are not real and that fear is not real. They help them talk through the fear of what is scaring them to move to that next level. [30:15] Finding the Balance Between Setbacks and Failures Have a tribe of trusted kindred spirits that have your best interests in mind and with whom you can talk things through, get feedback, and get their thoughts. Let them share their experiences that you can also take into account before jumping into decisions. A lot of entrepreneurs have so much energy and they move fast. But that can turn into a double-edged sword when you're moving too fast, that you're spending the wrong energy on something and you lose interest. You can be more successful when you surround yourself with people that can help you see the full spectrum of what's going on or what could go on.

Publishers often look at books as seasonal, but an author needs to look at their book as a long term investment. What should you be thinking of a year before publishing, and how can your book help your business - even years after it was released? I've invited Katie Anderson, internationally recognized leadership coach, consultant, speaker, and founder of Katie Anderson Consulting to join me. At the time of this recording, Katie was celebrating the three year anniversary of her book, Learning to Lead, Leading to Learn: Lessons from Toyota Leader Isao Yoshino on a Lifetime of Continuous Learning. Katie's journey into thought leadership literally took her around the world, from California to Australia and then to Japan, where she had the unique opportunity to partner with Isao Yoshino, a 40-year Toyota Motor Corporation leader. This time spent together became the fuel for her book, Learning to Lead, in which she weaves together Mr. Yoshino's heartwarming and deeply reflective stories of personal discovery and organizational history, and offers her own unique perspective, with the intention of helping others learn to lead and lead to learn. In the year leading up to publishing the book, Katie had a lot of big decisions to make. Katie shares how she was introduced to traditional publishers both big and small, but ultimately chose to self-publish. We learn the importance of having the goals of the publisher align with those of the author, and how an author can maintain control over the message and look of the book. Now, three years after publishing, Katie shares the impact the book has had on her business and what she did to ensure it found its way into the right hands. She talks about sharing stories from the book and doing so from the heart, without a focus on selling units, but with a passion for the lessons that can be learned and the impact and value the book can have for others. Three Key Takeaways: * You need to have a full understanding of the purpose of your book. Allow that purpose to influence the choices around publishing, look, and feel. * There needs to be complete alignment between a publisher and author. If you can't find that perhaps another publishing method would better suit you. * When self-publishing it is still important to hire professionals to do the work you are not good at. This will ensure a polished end product.

In this episode, Dr. Samuel Wallace helps explain the way the Allies were learning in 1942-43 throughout the final six months or so of the North Africa Campaign following Operation Torch, and the ways in which the Axis forces were not learning some of the same lessons they were having issues with. It's a long one, but full of fantastic details that Sam brings from his dissertation research. While we did not fully resolve all of the issues we were learning to deal with before going into Sicily in July 1943, the Allies' capacity for adaptation and improvement, along with innate American optimism and confidence, were really helping us improve at an incredible pace. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mother-of-tanks/message
It's no secret that nearly everything is getting outsourced today. From house cleaning to car maintenance to food delivery, the convenience and accessibility of hiring someone else to do a task you A) Don't know how to do or B) Have no interest in doing has become big business. This is particularly true in the world of home improvement and renovations; while a good percentage of the population still goes the DIY route, more and more are seeing the benefits of hiring a professional to do it right the first time, saving both time, money, headaches - and probably marriages. And since so many people are spending more time IN their homes thanks to remote work, they're much more eager to invest in outdoor living spaces, remodeling bathrooms, and upgrading their kitchens. But anyone who has hired (or attempted to hire) a handyman knows finding trustworthy and reliable contractors can be challenging. Vice versa, if you're a handyman or contractor, you know the difficulty of managing customer expectations, dealing with paperwork and contracts, and handling admin while doing the job itself. Far too often, neither side comes out ahead. This is an opportunity that Chris Lalomia has capitalized on. (Very successfully, we might add.) Leaving the “corporate zoo,” he ventured out on his own and started The Trusted Toolbox, a home repair and remodeling service. He employs a team of specialized technicians whose only responsibility is to do what they do best. By managing the communication, the paperwork, and the “busy work,” he has more control over the final outcome, making both customer and contractor happy. If you're in any type of service-based business, tune into this episode for some great advice on customer service, business planning, mistakes to avoid, and more. What You'll Learn: Lessons he learned from building a business plan Marketing mistakes he made first starting out What the number one priority should be today for advertising Why it's essential to show your client your work Why he puts a premium on customer service His exit strategy …and much more!

In the News with Mike Dakkakwww.itnshow.comKim Witczak joins ITN to discuss how lessons learned during the Covid pandemic need to be applied going forward, changes that need to be made at the FDA, medical censorship and more.
In this recap episode of Flow Over Fear, I share some of the lessons I learned from my interview with David Mammano. David is the author of “Crash and Learn: Lessons in Business”, and is a serial entrepreneur and founder of seven businesses, a TEDx speaker, an INC 5000 Growth Company winner, and leader of YOUTopia, a community for entrepreneurs. In this recap, I share key parts of our conversation, including: - David's book, “Crash and Learn”. - Perseverance through perceived failure. - No perfect run up to success – failing upward. - The entrepreneur mindset, and fear of uncertainty during the startup phase. - The definition of failure – giving up. - Successful transitions through setback. - Contingency plans. - The power of community in entrepreneurship. - Infusing humor back into business. If you'd like to learn more about David, you can find him at www.davidmammano.com.
One of the things that scares people from being entrepreneurs is the uncertainty of what can happen. But it's all part of the fun! The ability to fail and fail forward is what sets successful people apart. In today's episode, Adam Hill speaks with David Mammano about overcoming fear and failure as an entrepreneur. David is an entrepreneur and a teacher of entrepreneurs. He's a writer about entrepreneurs and a speaker about entrepreneurs. It's obvious he loves the entrepreneurial life. David is the founder of seven businesses, a three-time Inc Magazine 5000 growth company winner, a two-time TEDx speaker, and an adjunct professor at the University of Rochester in New York. He now leads the YOUtopia, a network that helps entrepreneurs to grow and connect. He's also the host of the highly acclaimed podcast, “The Gonzo Experience”, and author of three books, including his most recent bestseller CRASH and LEARN: Lessons in Business. Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: David's career background from a radio job to a magazine business Failure is giving up Seeing the light at the end of the COVID tunnel Getting out of the fear What prompted him to write a book David's version of “crash and learn” Getting good at mitigating risks as an entrepreneur Finding the balance between a setback and a failure Episode Highlights: [08:29] Failure is Giving Up As an entrepreneur, it's important to have a growth mindset, seeing failure as giving up. If your business doesn't go well the first time, then start creating a second business. If it fails again, then do a third business – until you get it. Failure is when you decide to give up and stop being an entrepreneur, and you stop doing what you're doing. Having this kind of mindset develops persistence. [19:33] Getting Out of The Fear A lot of people let fear be an obstacle to achieving their best. One of the ways we can get out of that fear is to find a community of like-minded people that are going through the same thing and inspire each other to push through perceived obstacles. Mastermind groups like YOUtopia bring in speakers who are going to inspire people to realize that these barriers are not real and that fear is not real. They help them talk through the fear of what is scaring them to move to that next level. [30:15] Finding the Balance Between Setbacks and Failures Have a tribe of trusted kindred spirits that have your best interests in mind and with whom you can talk things through, get feedback, and get their thoughts. Let them share their experiences that you can also take into account before jumping into decisions. A lot of entrepreneurs have so much energy and they move fast. But that can turn into a double-edged sword when you're moving too fast, that you're spending the wrong energy on something and you lose interest. You can be more successful when you surround yourself with people that can help you see the full spectrum of what's going on or what could go on.

Last year on this podcast, I did several episodes about the distinction between being an expert and a thought leader. As speakers, we often get stuck in what I call “the expert trap.” We get comfortable training and teaching in our area of expertise and we think that's the only way to provide value to our audiences. The way out of this is to incorporate more of your personal journey and storytelling into your talks and to believe that providing your audiences with transformation is more important than information. My guest on the podcast is Katie Anderson, an internationally recognized leadership and learning coach, consultant, and professional speaker. Katie and I have been working together since the beginning of the year on her new keynote and helping her incorporate more storytelling and performance aspects into her delivery. Katie and I talk about: Why she wanted to get out of the expert trap and add more storytelling into her keynotes What the process has been like for her and what doubts she had The results so far from delivering two keynotes this year How she developed her own voice from the blog and book writing she's been doing since 2015 The power of the pause and silence And much more!
