    Engage in Deliberate Practice to Level Up Your Engineering Leadership Skills

    I want to dive into the concept of Deliberate Practice, which sets the greatest apart in fields ranging from sports to writing to engineering. I'll explain why it's much more than just repetition or experience, and why applying it to your career can lead to rapid improvement. Most importantly, I will provide concrete ways you can apply deliberate practice to level up your engineering and leadership skills, especially in areas that are traditionally difficult to practice, such as communication and strategic decision-making.Differentiate Practice from Deliberate Practice: Understand that while repetition is part of practice, deliberate practice specifically involves engaging in a very narrow set of activities with the intentional goal of improvement, requiring very quick feedback for continuous incorporation.Identify Opportunities for Rapid Improvement: Learn why deliberate practice is much more effective at achieving rapid improvement than simply engaging in repetition.Apply DP to Leadership Skills: Discover how to incorporate deliberate practice into roles like engineering manager, tech lead, or IC (Individual Contributor) leader, where the activity of practice is often harder to pinpoint.Leverage Existing Work for Practice: I suggest a mindset shift where you begin looking at existing responsibilities, such as one-on-ones, as opportunities for practice. For example, you can focus on improving your clarity when providing constructive criticism and ask for specific feedback on that aspect.Generate Novel Value Through Practice: Explore how engaging in deliberate practice activities—like recording a video to communicate a technical concept or creating documentation—serves the primary goal of practice, while almost certainly creating unexpected value for your team (often net neutral or positive).Use Backwards Training for Strategy: Find out how to practice strategic decision-making and forecasting by using "backwards training". This involves reviewing past decisions or work scopes, creating your own rationale or estimate, and then calibrating it against the known reality.Simulate Difficult Conversations: Consider leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) to engage in deliberate practice around language-heavy skills, such as modelling sensitive or difficult topics, or practicing receiving harsh feedback.

    In today's episode, Keith Kalfas shares the raw, unfiltered story of how he hit rock bottom—working a dead-end landscaping job, broke, exhausted, and stuck—and how one life-changing piece of advice from a millionaire mentor set everything in motion. From dropping his shovel in defeat to starting his first business out of the trunk of his wife's car, Keith reveals what it really takes to break free from fear, rebuild from nothing, and create a life on your own terms. Packed with hard-earned wisdom, gut-punch motivation, and the kind of truth most people are afraid to say out loud, this episode will light a fire under anyone who's ever felt trapped and ready for more.     “Action is what brought me back to life. The shovel wasn't just a tool — it was my resurrection.” – Keith Kalfas   Topics Covered: Why the “perfect time” never comes (and why that's a good thing) How taking any action beats endless planning and self-doubt The moment Keith realized he was already dead inside — and how that freed him to finally live How humility, faith, and raw grit can build a six-figure business from nothing   Key Takeaways Rock Bottom Can Be the Turning PointKeith's story proves that hitting rock bottom isn't failure — it's clarity. When you finally realize that staying where you are hurts more than taking a risk, you stop hesitating. That's when real change begins. For Keith, the moment he dropped the shovel wasn't the end — it was the start of a new life. Pride Keeps You Broke Starting from nothing meant letting go of ego. Pulling weeds, working out of a trunk, knocking on doors — Keith did it all. Once he stopped caring about looking “successful,” he became unstoppable. Pride keeps you stuck; humility gets you paid. You Don't Need Money — You Need Movement Most people wait for the “perfect time” or enough savings to start a business. Keith learned that waiting is the real trap. The millionaire who told him to “get a shovel and start knocking on doors” wasn't being dismissive — he was teaching him that resourcefulness beats resources. Action creates opportunity, not the other way around.   Connect with Keith Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/keithkalfas/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thelandscapingemployeetrap Website: https://www.keithkalfas.com/resources Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@keith-kalfas   Resources and Websites:  Start Getting Leads Now https://www.footbridgemedia.com/keith The Untrapped Alliance: https://www.keithkalfas.com/alliance Resources You Need To Build A Successful Business https://www.keithkalfas.com/resources

    The best leaders are the ones that can hold space for both—care personally and challenge directly. Work never happens in a vacuum. Field calls, customer pressure, travel, and deadlines compound the very real mental load carried by water professionals. In this conversation, Dr. Andy Melton, a professional counselor and executive coach at  www.andymelton.com—shares clear, practical ways leaders and teams can recognize mental health warning signs, set the right boundaries, and respond with care without stepping outside their role.  Care Personally, Challenge Directly—Inside Clear Boundaries Managers aren't neutral parties, and that matters. Andy explains the built-in conflict of interest when a supervisor probes too deeply into an employee's personal struggles. You still need to check in—but do it in role: use open-ended, performance-anchored questions (“What's been challenging for you lately?”), document observations, and offer resources instead of diagnoses. He also highlights Kim Scott's “Radical Candor” frame—care personally and challenge directly—as a durable leadership posture for tough conversations.   Spotting Decline Early—Behavioral, Cognitive, Physical  Before missed KPIs and callbacks spike, there are tells: sudden drops in productivity, withdrawal, irritability, rising absence/tardiness, markedly negative self-talk, and physical complaints (fatigue, headaches, stomach issues). Andy shares a simple “dashboard” self-check—sleep and eating patterns—plus trackable 1–10 scales for stress, energy, engagement, and mood stability to catch trends early.  When It's Serious—Safe Paths and Resources  Anonymous surveys can surface urgent risks—including suicidality. Andy outlines responsible next steps: widen communication, invite follow-ups, and immediately involve a mental health professional or crisis resources. Know the number 988 and your local mobile crisis team information; publish those options prominently so help is never far away.  Grounding Under Load—3 Techniques You Can Use Anywhere  For anxiety (mind racing ahead) and depression (mind stuck in the past), uniting mind and body in the present increases bandwidth. Andy teaches three job-friendly tools: the four-second “box” breath, a five-senses “sensory scan,” and a head-to-toe “progressive muscle relaxation.” Each can be done discreetly at a desk, in a service truck, or before a customer meeting.  Strong operations require strong people. Build a culture that normalizes check-ins, provides resources, and keeps performance expectations clear. That's how teams protect each other and maintain reliability in the field.  Listen to the full conversation above.

    Level Up - From Agent to Entrepreneur
    How to Become a Better Buyer's Agent (It's Not About Showing More Homes)

    Level Up - From Agent to Entrepreneur

    Play Episode Listen Later Oct 2, 2025 18:10


    A lot of buyer's agents think being “better” just means moving faster. Taking every late-night call, saying yes to every showing, and running themselves ragged across town. More homes, more showings, more hustle. But hustle doesn't equal conversion, it often equals burnout. The agents who actually win with buyers aren't the ones sprinting around at all hours. They're the ones who slow down, take control, and position themselves as trusted advisors. The truth is, too many buyer's agents play the role of door-opener. They think value comes from access, when in reality, buyers are craving authority. Without clear guidance, clients don't feel safe. They get overwhelmed by endless options, stall out on decisions, and eventually ghost you. Being a great buyer's agent isn't about being available 24/7. It's about creating safety through authority, building trust by asking better questions, and making recommendations without being pushy.  So how do you shift from being “just another agent” to the one buyers actually listen to? How do you guide clients without making them feel like subordinates? In this episode of Level Up, we break down exactly what separates the buyer's agents who burn out from the ones who close deals consistently, and how you can step into that second category.   Buyer's agents want to be the respected advisor, but they tend to act like they're just the door opener. -Greg Harrelson   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Value beats volume Being available 24/7 and running from showing to showing doesn't make you a better agent. What happens when you focus on bringing value and expertise instead of more showings? The power of buyer consultations Most agents skip straight to showings, but consultations uncover motivation, timelines, and deal-breakers. How does a simple upfront conversation save you time and boost your conversion rate? Authority without arrogance Buyers want guidance, but they don't want to feel bossed around. How do you step into authority while still making clients feel safe and in control?   About Your Host Greg Harrelson is a real estate agent, coach, trainer and owner of Century 21 The Harrelson Group.

    What happens when you take quitting completely off the table? In this episode of Habits and Hustle, I'm joined by Alvaro Nunez as he shares how his father's cancer diagnosis turned a seemingly impossible cycling race into an unbreakable commitment. We dive into his journey from tennis courts to Miami real estate deals, and why he voluntarily puts himself through extreme physical and mental challenges.

    Send us a textIf you've ever felt awkward saying no - to a client, a colleague, or even a friend, this episode will be a relief. I'm joined by communication specialist Colleen Kavanagh, who unpacks how to deliver a firm no without triggering defensiveness, people-pleasing, or creating more work for yourself.We dig into “can-do” language - a practical way of flipping the conversation from roadblocks to options. Instead of the reflex combo of “Unfortunately… I'm sorry… I can't… due to…”, Colleen shows how to lead with what I can do, then position the boundary with confidence. The result is less pushback, a calmer tone, and stronger trust.Colleen walks through live reframes you can use today: returning sale items, rescheduling requests, and that dreaded airline-style announcement. We also talk about when empathy is essential (and when it isn't), how to edit an email so it lands better, and why “customers” include your internal stakeholders too. Colleen shares a council case study where tightening everyday language lifted Net Promoter Score by 75% across 1,600 surveys - proof this isn't fluffy, it's commercial.If you lead a team, handle clients, work cross-functionally, or simply want to protect your time without feeling guilty, this one's for you.Key takeaways:People are more interested in what I can do than what I can't. When I lead with options and next steps, the “no” lands as professional and helpful.Ditch trigger words. “Unfortunately”, “I'm sorry” “I can't” “due to” spike emotion and invite arguments. They're habitual, not helpful.Reframe in a single move. Put the positive offer first, then the boundary: “I can offer Wednesday 8:30–10:30 or Thursday afternoon. I'm not available Wednesday midday due to a prior commitment.”Use empathy when the person needs to feel seen. Mirror back the facts and pressure points before you offer the path forward. Trust is built on reliability. If I'm starting emails with “Sorry for the delay…”, I've got a reliability opportunity. Communicate work-in-progress updates before people need to chase.Internal audiences are customers too. Clear, can-do language with colleagues improves influence and personal brand just as much as it does with clients.Connect with ColleenLinkedIn WebsiteDOWNLOAD MY CONTENT PLANNER - https://becchappell.com.au/content-planner/Instagram @bec_chappellLinkedIn – Bec Chappell If you're ready to work together, I'm ready to work with you and your team.How to work with me:1.

    Some agents think market data is just a bunch of MLS stats to throw into a listing presentation. Just absorption rates, days on market, and sales ratios that you check off like a box.  But it's actually one of the most powerful persuasion tools you have. Market data shifts the conversation from opinion to fact, from convincing to guiding. It builds your confidence, gives clients a clear picture they can't argue with, and it helps you close more deals. The truth s, too many agents hide behind generic terms like “the market is slow” or “inventory is high.” Those phrases don't move clients; they confuse them.  Without specifics, your advice sounds like just another opinion. And in a market where clients are bombarded with opinions from social media, friends, and Zillow alerts, opinions don't close deals. Facts do. How do we turn raw numbers into stories that help clients? How does that lead to more closings? In this episode of Level Up, we show you how to use numbers to set expectations, have better conversations, overcome objections, and close more deals.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Facts beat opinions every time When you let the market data speak instead of your own opinion, clients stop arguing and start listening. What happens when you shift from convincing to simply presenting the facts? The one number that tells the whole story Absorption rate reveals both demand and supply in a single snapshot. How does knowing this metric instantly change the way you talk about the market? Painting a clearer picture with specifics Telling a seller “the market is slow” falls flat, but showing them that 90% of listings are sitting unsold hits home. What does that do to their pricing mindset? The three-price strategy Presenting sellers with three time-based pricing options sets expectations before the listing ever hits the market. How does this keep you from endless price-reduction battles later? About Your Host Greg Harrelson is a real estate agent, coach, trainer, and owner of Century 21 The Harrelson Group.

    Keith gets personal: the cramped one-bedroom apartment that pushed him to the edge, the terrible nights of doubt, and the single decision that changed everything. This episode explores how action — not passive hustle or endless planning — dissolves fear, how upgrading your environment upgrades your identity, and why finding the right people (coaches, freelancers, consultants) is often the smarter action than trying to do everything yourself. Packed with practical mindset shifts, a few laughable moving anecdotes, and a straight-forward call to take one bold step today.     “When you don't know your worth, you're taking action based off of fear.” – Keith Kalfas   Topics Covered: Action Cures Fear: Why Decisive Moves Shrink Anxiety   Fear vs. Incentive Motivation: Running From vs. Running Toward     Upgrading Your Environment to Upgrade Your Identity   Who, Not How: Leveraging People to Scale Without Burnout   Raising Prices, Raising Standards, and Building Confidence   Breaking Limiting Beliefs: The “Stable Datum” Shift   Surrounding Yourself with Mentors, Events & Growth Communities   Defining Your Number, Your Vision, and Incentive-Driven Goals   Key Takeaways Action Cures Fear Fear feeds on hesitation. The longer you sit in analysis and planning, the bigger the fear grows. Keith shares how taking decisive action — even when it felt risky or uncomfortable — immediately shrank the fear. Once he moved forward, momentum replaced anxiety. It's not about reckless leaps, but about making bold, committed moves that signal to yourself: I'm doing this. Two Kinds of Motivation Fear-Motivation: Acting because you're running away from something (like debt, failure, embarrassment). It creates hustle, but it also breeds burnout and keeps you stuck in survival mode. Incentive-Motivation: Acting because you're running toward something (like freedom, growth, building a legacy). This type of motivation energizes you, sustains you through challenges, and aligns your daily grind with a bigger vision. Upgrade Your Environment, Upgrade Your Identity: Your environment reinforces your self-image. For Keith, moving from a cramped one-bedroom into a better condo wasn't just about comfort — it was about identity. Suddenly, he felt like someone who deserved to charge more, run his business with pride, and raise his standards. That leap in environment forced a leap in belief, and that shift transformed the way he worked. In other words: where you live, the people around you, and the spaces you operate in either keep you small or challenge you to rise higher. Change your environment, and you naturally start showing up differently.   Connect with Keith Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/keithkalfas/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thelandscapingemployeetrap Website: https://www.keithkalfas.com/resources Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@keith-kalfas   Resources and Websites:  Start Getting Leads Now https://www.footbridgemedia.com/keith The Untrapped Alliance: https://www.keithkalfas.com/alliance Resources You Need To Build A Successful Business https://www.keithkalfas.com/resources
