Welcome to Day 20 of the Double Your Profit SeriesThe go-to series for contractors, home service owners, and small business entrepreneurs.Today, we're digging into one of the toughest — and most important — topics in business: Improving Employee Productivity.It's tempting to think the secret is cloning your best performer. But here's the reality: if you average your top performer with your lowest performer, their combined output often falls below the team average.That's why low performers don't just under-deliver — they drag down your best people too. The key isn't creating more “10x” employees. It's raising the performance of your average team member.
In this episode of A Productive Conversation, I sit down with Michael Timms—TEDx speaker, leadership consultant, and author of How Leaders Can Inspire Accountability. This conversation is a part of our ongoing exploration into the habits that drive not just productivity, but the kind of leadership that inspires lasting impact.Michael unpacks how accountability is often misunderstood and misused—weaponized as blame rather than cultivated as ownership. We explore what it means to truly support people to be accountable, the distinction between leadership and management, and the systems thinking leaders must embrace to avoid finger-pointing and foster real results.Six Discussion PointsWhy “holding people accountable” is the wrong approach—and what to say insteadThe critical distinction between leadership and managementHow self-awareness and humility form the foundation of great leadershipWhat journaling, feedback, and asking for advice all have in commonThe three habits of inspiring accountability—and why they work in harmonySystems thinking: how leaders can engineer solutions that prevent future issuesThree Connection PointsHow Leaders Can Inspire AccountabilityMichael's TEDx Talk – How to Claim Your Leadership PowerWhy Reading Leadership Books will Boost Your ProductivityThis conversation with Michael was a powerful reminder that the best leaders don't point fingers—they build frameworks. If you're looking to lead with more clarity, humility, and purpose, I highly recommend picking up his book and watching his TEDx talk. True accountability isn't about control—it's about connection.Grab My New Book: The Productivity Diet: A Practical Guide to Nurturing your Productive PotentialIf you're looking to build a sustainable, personalized productivity practice that actually sticks, my latest book is for you.

Unlocking Success Through Strategy and Consistency with Jake SmolarekIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge welcomes Jake Smolarek, Life and Business Coach. With a unique background that blends gaming, coaching, and entrepreneurship, Jake helps established entrepreneurs master their time, mindset, and decision-making. In this conversation, he shares a powerful framework for staying consistent, making quicker decisions, and enjoying the entrepreneurial journey along the way.What Entrepreneurs Can Learn from Gaming and CoachingJake Smolarek draws fascinating parallels between gaming and entrepreneurship, emphasizing that both require strategy, feedback, and consistent practice. As an avid gamer, Jake believes the lessons from gaming—like handling setbacks, adapting strategies, and refining skills—can directly improve business outcomes. Mistakes aren't failures; they're feedback. And mastery? That comes from repetition.Jake's “No 0% Days” concept is at the core of his coaching philosophy. It's a mindset that encourages progress—even in the smallest steps—every single day. Whether it's sending one email, making a call, or spending five focused minutes on a goal, daily actions compound into lasting results. This approach helps entrepreneurs avoid burnout, maintain momentum, and track real progress over time.A recurring theme in Jake's work is the power of clarity and decisiveness. He stresses the importance of having a clear vision, which makes it easier to filter decisions, say no to distractions, and take fast, aligned action. Entrepreneurs often suffer from “option overload.” But with a strong vision, you can limit options, trust your instincts, and keep moving forward with confidence. This episode is a blueprint for anyone looking to lead with intention and avoid the trap of perfectionism and indecision.About Jake SmolarekJake Smolarek is a Life and Business Coach who helps high-performing entrepreneurs develop clarity, consistency, and confidence. With a background in personal development and performance coaching, Jake supports clients in aligning their daily actions with long-term vision through mindset work, decision-making frameworks, and real-world accountability systems.About JakeSmolarek.comAt JakeSmolarek.com, Jake offers personalized coaching and resources for entrepreneurs looking to take control of their time, mindset, and business growth.
