For this episode, I welcome Bill Wooditch. After spending a year at a dead-end job with a foreclosed future, Bill Wooditch created his renowned “Always Forward” mindset and forged his way from the impoverished backwoods of western Pennsylvania to create a multi-million-dollar company, which he continues to lead today. As a professional speaker, Bill uses his experiences to inspire individuals to pursue personal development and professional success. He is the author of Always Forward and Fail More, a Wall Street Journal bestseller. The hard-won lessons he shares in his books and keynotes are designed to shorten the distance between where you are now and where you are determined to go in the future.   We open this episode with Bill sharing his background story. Bill grew up in western Pennsylvania, having to march to a certain drum all the time because his father was a Pennsylvania state policeman. Ironically, Bill was a rebel from a very young age and didn’t deal well with authority. His rebellious nature got him a job in a factory and while his friends went to school, he had to stay home and go to work. Bill shares how living this life, feeling like there is no future in front of him, scared him to death. This is when his parents decided to give him one more chance and send him to school.   Bill then talks about his experiences during his college years, and how the biggest lesson he learned was how to connect with people. Bill believes that college is still important today for the right industry, for engineers and scientists, but he doesn’t believe that it is the only way to become successful. This was a tough mind shift for him because he was a huge believer in college experience because it worked for him.    Together we then dive into discussing the good and the bad that Bill learned during his career that served him in moving forward. He explains how doing things the “corporate way” never came naturally to him, and he discovered the magic formula the hard way, by failing. He found that the true formula was to simply connect with people. Bill is a firm believer that putting people in a box and trying to make them conform to the “rules'' is not beneficial for anyone. His philosophy is that only a great leader can hire exceptional people and allow them to be great.   We also discussed what Bill’s company does and how he discovered his niche. He shares how his regional insurance brokerage firm The Wooditch Group is a holding company for a couple of companies that transact property and casualty insurance-related business. This platform allowed Bill to follow one of his other passions, which is public speaking. Eventually, all of this led to him writing his books, in which he poured his essence into, Always Forward and Fail More. Today, he doesn’t spend that much time on the corporate insurance side because he has an amazing team behind him, so he is able to focus on having high-end conversations with successful people.   Eventually, Bill explains the difference between large and small goals. According to Bill, it is important to have huge aspirations in life, but you have to have small goals in between because accomplishing those small goals will give you the boost that you need in order to keep moving forward and eventually accomplishing your large goals. Otherwise, you will just have a fantasy that will eventually disappoint you and set you back. Bill shares that the difference between inspiration and motivation is that motivation will go away after a while.   Lastly, we discuss the importance of first giving value. Bill believes that in order to differentiate yourself from the masses you have to think in terms of value. You need to keep in mind that the arbiter of the value is the client. This, as he called it, “servant mentality” attracted his customers and made him stand out. He built his entire business on giving value first.    Don’t miss this episode of the Just Start Real Estate Podcast with Bill Wooditch! This was an incredibly fun conversation, but it’s also filled with great value, important messages, and amazing lessons, so make sure you tune in! Notable Quotes:   “I was a rebel without a clue.” Bill Wooditch   “I hated the most important thing that we have to do to make success real and that is work.” Bill Wooditch   “We all need a little fear in our lives to be able to move forward, and I had a big dose of fear: doing the same things for 8 hours a day, with no future in front of me.” Bill Wooditch   “When I was growing up, there was no discussion - you are going to go to college, that's what you do, otherwise you're a loser, high school education is not enough. I just don't think it's the case anymore for a lot of folks.” Mike Simmons   “I found the magic formula the hard way, by failing. The magic formula was just to connect with people.” Bill Wooditch   “You are not going to win every heart, you are not going to influence every mind. Why don’t you just meet them as people? ” Bill Wooditch   “People who were born to communicate, people who were born to connect, born to have that really dynamic interaction with people, if you hide them away you're just weakening them. Like Superman with kryptonite.” Mike Simmons   “Great people will be great, you just have to get out of their way a little bit.” Mike Simmons   “It is not about controlling. It is about inspiring, cultivating, and working together as a team.” Bill Wooditch   “If you don't have a lot of activity in sales, you have nothing.” Bill Wooditch   “So many people are stymied and paralyzed by the anxiety of doing something wrong. Just do it.” Bill Wooditch   “It’s great to have huge aspirations, but you have to have mini-goals in between them.” Bill Wooditch   “The customer is king and it was always that way. We just kind of forgot about that royal throne.” Bill Wooditch   “You have to keep your soul.” Bill Wooditch   “People are not stupid, they can smell a liar.” Mike Simmons  Links: Bill’s Website Bill on LinkedIn Bill on Facebook Bill on Twitter Bill on Instagram Bill on YouTube Always Forward!

Speech Language Pathologist Lauren Schwabish reached out to me on Instagram with a few questions. I answer them in this episode. If you  have questions you’d like me to address, you can email Bill@Strokecast.com or message me on Instagram where I am Bills_Strokecast. Do you have tips on what education was most effective for you, or your survivor community? One of the first places I went was to podcasts. I found the Enable Me show from Australia and the aphasia-centric Slow Road to Better first, but not much else. It’s why I eventually started the Strokecast. I wanted it to be the podcast I wished I had found when I was in the hospital. Now, of course There are a lot more. If you want to hear more stroke related podcasts, visit http://Strokecast.com/StrokeRelatedPodcasts I also learned a lot from books. The first two survivor books I read were My Stroke of Insight by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor and Healing into Possibility by Alison Shapiro. I’ve also learned a lot reading memoirs from Strokecast Guests Christine Lee, Ted Baxter, Marcia Moran, Julia Fox Garrison, Janet Douglas, and Debra Myerson. You can hear my interviews with them and the stroke adjacent authors I’ve interviewed here. I also learned a lot diving into books about neuroplasticity and anatomy reading The Brain’s Way of Healing by Norman Doidge, Rewire Your Brain by John Arden, and Anatomy and Physiology Made Easy by Phillip Vaughan. If you use a Kindle or other eReader, be sure to check with you local library’s website because you may be able to check out eBooks without ever leaving the house. And, of course, doctors and therapists are a great resource. Ask them lots of questions to learn more. Most of them love talking about this stuff. What educational opportunities helped you the most as you left the hospital? What didn’t? Creating my own content was quite helpful. I began posting detailed descriptions of stroke stuff to Facebook. One of the best ways to learn something is to teach it. It reinforces the details, and it also helped me realize when I didn’t understand something and needed to ask more questions. Plus it engages other parts of the brain. It’s one thing to take in information, but then to teach it you have to route that information to the motor functions of the brain so you can type and the language center so you can choose the words. Support groups in the pre-quarantine days were also a fantastic place for more information. Plus you’re among people who get it. At a support group, folks understand what you’re going through. While staying inside, you can also join several of the dozens of stroke related Facebook groups. Be sure to search for them. These groups may have a few members or thousands of members. The leadership and members will have a huge impact on the character of the group, so try a few to find the ones that best mesh with your personality. Finally, check out #Stroke and #StrokeSurvivor on Twitter and Instagram. I’ve found that Twitter is likely home to more professionals whereas Instagram is more about the journeys of individual survivors. I’m preparing a lecture on how to best advocate for yourself when communicating with health care providers. Any hot takes? First of all, you have to advocate for yourself. Ultimately you are responsible for your own recovery and getting the support and care that you need. When you go into the doctor’s office, remember they are getting paid to provide the care. This is a business meeting. Like any business meeting, that means you need to prepare in advance, take notes during, and follow up on your activities afterwards. Prepare ahead by assembling key information like: Blood pressure readings Symptoms List of medications Questions you want answers to. You can even provide this information ahead of time to help them prepare. During your appointment, feel free to take notes. You can also bring a partner with you to help retain information. You can even ask if you can record the appointment. They might say no,  but you can still ask. You also need to recognize that the medical field is highly silo’d. By that I mean they are experts in their narrow field, but they may not be as familiar with other fields. That means you may be relaying information from one provider to another. You may be teaching your primary care physician about stroke or carrying information from a neuropathologist to a ph6ysiatrist. Finally, if you’re not comfortable with a specific provider, get a different one. Hack of the Week Patricia Geist-Martin (from Falling in Love with the Process Part 2) shared another technique that Bill Torres (from Falling in Love in the Process Part 1) used to deal with spasticity in his hand. He piled books on top of his hand while watching TV. Straightening out his finger and then putting weight on top was one reason his hand is no longer locked in a fist.

At 85, stroke survivor Bill Torres works out every day, feeds the ducks, and helps other survivors along the way. He has fallen in love with the process of getting better. This week, we hear Bill’s story. Bill Torres had a stroke at 71. Fourteen years later, he’s recovered and at age 85 spends his days feeding the ducks, hitting the speed bag, working out, and helping stroke survivors around the country navigate their own process of stroke recovery. This episode is a little different. Bill just started telling stories and sharing his wisdom and who am I to get in the way of that with pre-prepared interview questions. I just wanted to hear more. So this episode highlights the core things that Bill and I talked about. I hope you find Bill as fascinating as I do. Bio Bill Torres grew up in San Diego, where he now lives. His career took him to places as varied as Long Island, NY; Jakarta, Indonesia; and a school in Venezuela. He taught English, sold franchises, brought Arby’s to large parts of the Pacific Northwest, and brought racquetball to the US. Bill survived a stroke at age 71 and now, at age 85, helps other stroke survivors along on their own journey of recovery. Bill is the subject of the new book, Falling in Love with the Process, by Dr. Patricia Geist Martin and Sarah Parsloe. He feeds the ducks every day. Bill’s story Hack of the Week Bill recommends old-school hair curlers as great tools for dealing with hand tone and spasticity. Combined with exercise, they help folks straighten out their finger and keep their hand open. If you’ve got some laying around, give them a try. Or ask Bill. He probably has a few in his car.

Today's pod is jam packed after a wild week. Donald Trump is asked about Q and responds in a way only he can. Is it a bad thing to be fighting Satanic Pedophiles? With this response, Q has burst back onto the mainstream media scene and the timing seems suspect. Why the resurgence in interest now? Is this part of the plan? Sloppy Steven Bannon was arrested for fraud in connection to a non-profit aiming to build the wall themselves. Is this a political hit or another example of a the Donald being taken advantage of by a grifter? No one seems to think the election won’t be rigged so it seems like we’re on our way to Civil War. Ole Bill Clinton has been linked to Ghislane Maxwell, the Lolita Express, and Jefferey Epstein’s Island by another eye witness and trafficking victim. How much worse can this get for him? Probably really really bad. As always we are sponsored by Illuminatus Brand and they can be found at Illuminatusbrand.com and @team_illuminatus on Instagram.

Rather than wait for the notification, he decided to shape his destiny and volunteered to join the Army. That was many years ago, but today, Bill Williams helps veterans shape their destiny when they decide to leave the service and transition back to civilian life.

For some longtime Puget Sounders, it’s a treasured memory, an anchor point of local TV culture. For those with, shall we say, shallower roots? It’s the stuff of legend, lore and YouTube. And for Bill Stainton, “Almost Live!” on Seattle’s KING-TV was all of that and more, it was his job. The Snohomish County resident joins Check It Out! podcast co-hosts Ken Harvey and Jim Hills in this episode. Stainton brings stories about just how rare the show was and his role as executive producer and cast member. Stainton recalls that “Almost Live!” had such a loyal following that for 10 years, Seattle was the only market in the U.S. that delayed airing “Saturday Night Live” to give the local show top billing. Today, the 29-time Emmy winner is translating the lessons learned from producing laughs every week for 15 years to lessons on how to produce results in the business world. Stainton brought his message to the TEDxStanleyPark stage in 2017 and served as an emcee at the 2017 TEDxSnoIsleLibraries event. Stainton notes that creativity is often about combining existing ideas in new ways, a process that can be planned for and cultivated. And in the process, maybe get a few laughs.

Bill Bogart is University Professor and Professor of Law at the University of Windsor, as well as the author of Off the Street: Legalizing Drugs, which explores research-based drug policy. Bill is interested in the actual impact laws have on socioeconomic conditions. Over the last eight years, Bill has also written books on gambling and obesity and was struck how drugs have been not been subject to the same regulatory and educational approach as the other two. In this episode, he makes a case for the legalization of all recreational drugs while using medical supervision and education to reduce harm among users. EDIT: Bill mentioned that there is no legal source of cocaine currently available. However, he wanted me to note that this was a mistake and that there is still a legal supply of cocaine, specifically as a topical pain reliever. England legally accesses the drug for that purpose. HIGHLIGHTS: -Bill discusses how criminalization has not driven down drug use amongst the population. -The effectiveness of regulation and education in combating smoking. -Moving away from criminalization and toward harm reduction. -Addressing safe injection sites and why they're an indication of changing attitudes. -How legalizing and regulating drugs will not only reduce crime but contribute to the economy. -Moving away from abstinence-only drug education and toward discussing moderation and risk-assessment; "Permit, but discourage." -How do we approach the legalization of party drugs such as cocaine? -Differentiating between use and harmful use, and the important of introducing a social support system alongside legalization. -Why the United States' drug policies could negatively impact Canada's changing ones. QUOTES: "Shifting behavioural patterns... is a long, tough, complicated battle." "Use and criminal sanctions are not very closely related." "What is it in your life that you want to use heroin to try to blot it out?" "The opioid crisis is forcing us in this emergency context to face drug usage." "The silver lining of the very, very dark cloud of the opioid crisis is that we are actually moving to a context of legalization." "If we legalize drugs, we confront the thugs!" "I fear the notion that legalization will somehow become equated with approval." "Anybody who thinks that capital punishment is going to solve this is from the dark side of the Moon."

There are times in life when you meet someone who you just feel a connection with right from the get-go.  I had one of those experiences when I sat down to interview this week's guest, Bill Fisher.  Not only does he have a voice that that is destined for audio greatness, but he's also a phenomenal guy.  Bill is the President and Co-Founder of Maximum Velocity, a full-service marketing agency here in Cleveland.   I was introduced to Bill by a listener, and now friend, who reached out just looking to add value.  That gesture alone was enough to start a friendship with that particular listener but also planted the seed for another great relationship and a top-notch episode with Bill.   Bill delivers some unbelievable content and true value in this episode. I will say it gets deep and he is very open and vulnerable with me, which makes for a powerful conversation. He is very open about how his faith has guided him. We discuss the importance of having someone to hold you accountable, how you can set up a life plan, what it means to find your spot, and much more.    Enjoy!   Links: Bill's Life Plan Template - www.millennialmm.com/lifeplan Living With A Seal by Jesse Itzler - https://www.amazon.com/Living-SEAL-Training-Toughest-Planet-ebook/dp/B00U6DNZB2 Bill Fischer on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bill-fischer-323a74 maximumvelocityllc.net/

Bill Mensch, 6502 chip Bill Mensch is co-creator of the 6502 chip, the microprocessor that’s the heart of the Atari 8-bit computers, the Apple ][, Commodore 64, and many other classic computers.  This interview occurred August 6, 2015. Teaser quotes: “These guys at Motorola aren’t going to do the microprocessor that we need to do: that is a low-end microprocessor to complete with the Intel 4040 which sold for about $29.” “I had a bet with Rod Orgle, and Rod Orgle said the 6501 would outsell the 6502.” “I’m in empowerment technology. I want to empower people to do their idea. That’s what I did for Chuck [Peddle], that’s why he came to me.” “Now, you’d think that I was a big fan of Apple, and I’m not. The reason why I’m not is they killed off the Apple II to make room for the Macintosh.” “All of those old brands — Apple II, Commodore, Atari, and the old Nintendo — could all come back to life, with the right relationships. And we have the technology.” Links: Bill and Dianne Mensch Foundation: http://themenschfoundation.org Western Design Center: http://www.westerndesigncenter.com My interview with David Cramer, Western Design Center: http://ataripodcast.libsyn.com/antic-interview-29-david-cramer-western-design-center
