    Whiparound Fridays return as Andy and Brendan! record during the early window of NCAA Tournament Thursday. After a brief check-in on the Illini and Johnnies ahead of their first round games, attention turns to another tradition of spring: the reveal of the Masters Champions Dinner menu. Andy and Brendan share their thoughts about everyone else sharing *their* own thoughts on Rory McIlroy's selections, which seem to appeal to a wide audience. Dan Orlovsky was not pleased by the menu during an appearance on SportsCenter, giving PJ more fodder and another chance to remove him from the Cameron Young bandwagon. Andy and PJ trade reviews of the PGA Tour's "Hard Knocks" show, "Chasing Sunday," which premiered Tuesday night. Andy is thrilled to have a golf product made for golf fans about the actual playing of golf, but PJ isn't so sure that the "Hard Knocks" edit truly came through. As the Tour continues to make these shows, will players get a "bad edit," or will everything have a so-called "Disney ending"? Brendan and Andy then discuss some early Masters storylines with just three weeks until play in Augusta, including the strong crop of debutants at this year's tournament. Brendan has some first-hand accounting from the Hainan Classic in China where the first round lasted over five hours on Thursday. In other news, Phil is BACK for the HyFlyers (in dead last place), and Bryson DeChambeau had yet another press conference moment made for social media in South Africa. Lastly, Brian Rolapp spoke on CNBC about the changing media rights landscape for pro sports leagues and might've made it seem like the PGA Tour's deal will be going... down... when it's time to renegotiate. We'll see you on Monday after the Valspar and a weekend full of college basketball.

    My high school science teacher almost helped me make TNT in the chemistry lab! That's how this episode starts. But it's not really about chemistry. It's about physics. Specifically, it's about momentum... and why the same force that keeps a relationship strong is also the force that quietly destroys it without anyone noticing until it's almost too late. Here's the thing most couples never consider: love isn't what holds a marriage together over time. It's what starts the process. What actually carries a relationship forward — or pulls it apart — is momentum And momentum follows rules. When couples come to me in crisis, one of the most common things I hear is some version of: "I didn't see it coming." Or: "I thought we were just going through a phase." Or: "I thought once things settled down, we'd get back to each other." They're not wrong that something changed. They're just wrong about when it started. The damage was already done — quietly, gradually, in a direction they couldn't feel — long before the crisis arrived. This episode is about why that happens. And why the natural response most people have when they finally do notice? It often makes it worse. A few things worth thinking about before you listen: If you can feel that your relationship has lost something, but you can't point to when or why — is it possible the answer is further back than you think? What happens to momentum when you stop adding energy to something? And what happens after it stops? Why would reaching hard toward your spouse in a moment of crisis push them further away instead of closer? The physics are more predictable than you'd expect. And understanding them might be the first thing that actually makes sense of where you are. Listen to "Momentum" now, below. If you're past the point of just feeling the drift and you're now in real crisis, the Save The Marriage System is built for exactly this moment. It's the roadmap back, from where momentum has taken you, to where you actually want to go. RELATED RESOURCES: 7 Stages of Disconnection Resources for Healing Disconnection Save The Marriage System

    Moments, momentum, and legends—this podcast breaks down how being present creates powerful relationships, personal growth, and legendary success. If you're looking for motivation, leadership insight, faith-based discipline, and a blueprint for real impact, this conversation will reset your perspective.We talk about a simple but life-changing truth: when you slow down and truly see people, you create moments. Those moments turn into momentum. And that momentum? That's what builds the foundation for legendary results.I learned this the hard way.Over the last two weeks, life was moving fast—speaking to the U.S. Marine Corps, connecting with the American Military University Student Veteran Association, showing up at American Public University, taking the stage at HealthTAC (the top conference in senior living), hosting The Vibe Room, and doing my best to lead as a father, husband, and friend.From the outside, it looked like momentum.But underneath it? I skipped the most important moment of all.I got “too busy” to spend intentional time with God in the morning.And today… I got checked.I sat down, opened Proverbs 18, and it hit different. It laid out a clear blueprint for what it means to be a true friend—and it starts with presence. Real presence. Undivided attention. No distractions.Because when you're present:You create moments.Those moments create momentum.And that momentum builds something legendary.This episode is a reminder that success without alignment is empty—and that the smallest daily disciplines often create the biggest life results.Take the moment. Build the momentum. Become the legend.

    Have you ever made a clear decision about your firm, only to find yourself reopening it later when execution becomes uncomfortable? Many law firm owners believe their challenge is making better decisions, but the real issue often shows up after the decision has already been made.   In this episode, Melissa explores the difference between pre-decision clarity and post-decision discipline. Clarity helps you reach a sound decision based on data, reality, and the future you want to build. But discipline is what turns that decision into results. Melissa explains why second guessing decisions drains energy, destabilizes teams, and slows momentum inside your firm.   You will hear why honoring decisions is a leadership skill and how consistent follow through creates stability, trust, and forward progress. If you want to lead your firm with greater confidence and reduce the mental load of constant reconsideration, this episode will help you understand the discipline that turns strategy into reality.   Let's talk!

    Develpreneur: Become a Better Developer and Entrepreneur

    There's a big difference between being busy and building something that lasts. Many entrepreneurs don't realize they're stuck in that gap. They're working hard, juggling responsibilities, hustling nights and weekends — but the business isn't really moving forward. In this episode of Building Better Developers, Army veteran and founder of Skillful Brands, Antwon Person, breaks down what actually creates forward momentum in a business. And it's not hype, hacks, or grinding harder. It's mindset, structure, and knowing when to leverage. The Entrepreneurial Mindset Isn't About Hustle — It's About Structure When Antwon left a 22-year military career and stepped into entrepreneurship, he brought discipline and leadership with him. What he discovered quickly, though, was that discipline alone doesn't build a company. Like many new entrepreneurs, he was busy. Very busy. But busy didn't mean structured. He realized something that most founders eventually learn the hard way: being busy in your business does not build a business. You can answer emails all day. You can tweak branding, post on social media, and chase opportunities. But without structure underneath those actions, you're just reacting — not building. That realization changed everything. Instead of chasing more tactics, he looked for clarity — and found it by connecting with someone who already had a blueprint. Momentum without structure leads to burnout. Structure without momentum leads to stagnation. The entrepreneurial mindset requires both — in the right order. Why Your First Mentor Doesn't Need to Be in Your Industry There's a common mistake new entrepreneurs make: assuming they need a mentor who does exactly what they do. Antwon disagrees — at least in the beginning. When you're building the foundation of a business, the fundamentals are universal. Every business needs clear goals, defined processes, the right mindset, and repeatable systems. At the early stage, what you need most isn't industry secrets — it's business fundamentals. He sees too many entrepreneurs jumping into advanced marketing tactics before they've validated their structure. They're polishing something that hasn't been built properly yet. It's like trying to optimize a machine that hasn't been assembled. Don't work on Phase 3 problems while you're still in Phase 1. Build proof of principle first. Everything else comes after. Once your foundation is solid and revenue is predictable, niche-specific coaching becomes powerful. But without a base, advanced tactics won't stick. The $10K Rule and the Leverage Phase One of the most practical insights from this conversation is Antwon's revenue-based approach to scaling. Up to around $10K per month, many entrepreneurs can manage operations solo — if they have structure. Beyond that point, things change. The workload compounds, communication increases, tasks multiply. Growth creates friction. That's where leverage becomes necessary. Instead of calling it "growth mode," Antwon frames it as entering the leverage phase — and that shift in language matters. Leverage means delegation, systems that support scale, clear onboarding, and defined ownership. Without it, revenue growth just creates exhaustion. With it, growth becomes sustainable. Hiring help isn't about spending money. It's about buying back focus and multiplying capacity. Why Hiring a VA Feels Hard — and How to Fix It For many entrepreneurs, hiring a virtual assistant feels overwhelming. There's hesitation: Will they understand what I need? Is it worth the cost? Will this just create more work for me? Antwon has lived through that. In the early stages, bringing on VAs felt like adding another job to his plate — confusion, repetition, miscommunication. The problem wasn't the VA. It was the lack of onboarding and structure. So he built a system. Now, every VA goes through a clear onboarding process, alignment with company mission and goals, defined task management inside tools like Monday or Asana, and screen-recorded walkthroughs for clarity. Instead of typing long explanations, he records a short screen demo showing exactly what he wants done and attaches it to the task. That single change reduced confusion dramatically. He also emphasizes ownership — VAs aren't treated like task robots, they're treated like team members. That shift alone changes performance. Stop Networking to Sell — Start Networking to Serve Too many entrepreneurs approach networking with one goal: sell. Antwon flips that completely. When he meets someone new, he focuses on learning who they are, understanding what partners they're looking for, offering value first, and leveraging connections instead of pushing services. He even shared a small but practical tactic he picked up in a free mastermind group — placing a QR code on his Zoom background so people could instantly access his information. Not a sales pitch. A friction reducer. And those small adjustments compound over time. The strongest networks aren't built on transactions. They're built on trust, value, and long-term reciprocity. Side Hustle vs. Company: The Real Mindset Shift One of the most important distinctions Antwon makes is between running a business and building a company. A business depends on you. A company operates beyond you. A business can generate income. A company can generate legacy. If your goal is supplemental income, operating as a side hustle may be fine. But if your goal is generational wealth or long-term impact, the mindset must shift. You have to design something that can function without your constant involvement — documented systems, delegated responsibilities, clear structure, leadership beyond yourself. And that shift starts internally. Because the hardest part of entrepreneurship isn't marketing or operations. It's believing you don't have to do it all yourself. The Real Blocker Is Mindset Throughout this episode, one theme keeps resurfacing: mindset is the biggest barrier. Not lack of information. Not a lack of opportunity. Mindset. Entrepreneurs stall because they listen to too many voices, hesitate to start, refuse to delegate, treat a business like a hobby, or avoid structure. Once the mindset shifts, everything else becomes simpler. Not easy — but simpler. Final Takeaway If you feel stuck in your business right now, ask yourself: Are you building something structured — or just staying busy? Have you proven your foundation? Have you entered the leverage phase? Or are you still operating like a side hustle when your goal is a company? Forward momentum doesn't come from more hustle. It comes from clarity, structure, and the willingness to step into the next phase of growth. That's the entrepreneurial mindset shift that changes everything.

    In this open mic episode of Man Vs. Marriage, Quincy Moran goes off script and straight from the heart. This is a raw conversation about what life is really about, what a man is actually working toward, and why so many men find themselves searching for change while still feeling stuck.Quincy reflects on his own marriage journey, the overwhelming adversity his family has faced, and the internal turning point that changed the direction of his life. From survival mode, family crisis, financial pressure, autism, emotional instability, and health struggles, he shares how choosing responsibility, discipline, faith, and intentional growth began to reshape everything.This episode is about more than marriage. It is about becoming a man your family can trust. It is about internal governance, personal responsibility, and refusing to quit before momentum shows up.If you have ever felt like you are working hard but losing sight of why, this episode will bring you back to the deeper mission.In This EpisodeQuincy talks about:Why the real question is not just “What am I doing?” but “Who am I becoming?”Why men must know what they are fighting forHow survival mode can quietly consume a marriageThe danger of building your life around kids while neglecting the marriageHis family's story of adversity, including financial struggle, medical hardship, autism, and traumaThe turning point that forced him to confront his own emotional patterns, health, and lack of internal controlWhy life is about becoming, not perfectionHow change starts with one choiceWhy momentum is invisible in the beginningThe importance of rebuilding trust with your wife, your kids, and yourselfWhy men must stop seeking comfort and start choosing growthHow discipline, faith, counseling, and intentionality helped reshape his marriage and family lifeWhy your legacy changes when you changeKey Takeaways1. Life is about who you are becomingYour life is being shaped by your choices, your standards, and your daily habits. Growth starts when you ask yourself honestly: Who am I becoming?2. You cannot lead what you do not governIf you cannot govern your own emotions, actions, attitudes, and effort, you will struggle to lead your marriage and family well.3. Marriage gets lost when family life gets crowdedWhen children, stress, work, and survival take over, many couples wake up one day and realize they no longer know each other. Marriage must stay intentional.4. Your past can prepare youPain does not have to define you. It can prepare you, strengthen you, and give you tools to help others if you are willing to learn from it.5. Perfection is a trapPerfection leads to procrastination and quitting. The standard is not perfection. The standard is excellence, growth, and consistency.6. Momentum is invisible at firstMany men stop too early because they do not see results fast enough. But real change often happens below the surface before it becomes visible.7. Trust starts with keeping your own wordBefore asking your wife or children to trust you, you must become a man who can trust himself.Memorable Quotes from the EpisodeYou can pull from these for captions, audiograms, and promo graphics:“One of the biggest questions I have to ask myself, and I hope you are too, is who am I becoming?”“Life is about who you are becoming.”“Perfection is a crutch.”“Momentum is invisible in the beginning.”“Focus on what you can affect.”“You must begin to reassume your authority.”“You start to become a man that you can trust.”“Don't stop too early.”“It takes what it will take.”“Your legacy changes when you change.”Who This Episode Is ForThis episode is for:Husbands who feel stuck, numb, or disconnectedMen carrying pressure from marriage, fatherhood, finances, and personal failureMen who know something has to changeCouples navigating adversity, parenting stress, or emotional distanceAnyone who needs hope that transformation is still possibleCall to ActionIf this episode spoke to you, share it with another husband, father, or man who needs the reminder that it is not too late to change.Have a question, testimony, or topic for Quincy to address?Email: quincy@mvsmpodcast.comIf you are looking for a speaker for a men's group, event, or leadership gathering, reach out directly through the show.

    Most women don't struggle with knowing they should work out. We struggle with finding 30 uninterrupted minutes, four times a week, with energy left over. Between work, kids, mental load, and just being tired… traditional workout expectations can feel overwhelming. And when 30 minutes feels impossible, we end up doing nothing. That's exactly why micro workouts are trending right now. In this episode, we break down: What micro workouts actually are (and what they are NOT) Why short workouts under 15 minutes are exploding in popularity How micro workouts build real strength and real results Why five minutes of movement is not “nothing” The mindset shift that keeps you from quitting Two simple ways to use micro workouts to build consistency Micro workouts are not watered-down workouts. They're not “fake.” They're not lazy. They're simply shorter workouts that remove overthinking and lower resistance. Because sometimes the most powerful thing you can do for your health is start smaller. If you've ever thought: “If I can't do 30 minutes, what's the point?” “Five minutes won't make a difference.” “I just need more motivation.” This episode will help you rethink everything. Momentum is not built through occasional perfect workouts. It's built through small, repeatable action. And sometimes the bravest thing you can do as a busy mom, working woman, or daughter of the King… Is let small be enough for today. Ready to Start Small?

    4 Behaviors That Put You on the Top Sales Producer Board (Money Monday)

    Have you ever had a moment where the answer you were looking for was right in front of you? I’m talking about a giant neon sign moment where you realize that a strategy is working, and the proof is undeniable. Today, I want to share a quick story about an unexpected moment of validation that I recently had, and the valuable lesson that every top sales producer needs to keep front of mind. The Annual Sales Summit That Changed Everything I have a client that I’ve worked with for several years now. Each month, I deliver virtual training workshops focused on different areas of sales. Some months our topic will be on prospecting best practices, and other months we may focus on things like sales negotiation skills or how to advance deals in the pipeline. These workshops are optional for the sales team to attend at this particular company. So recently, I was invited to attend their annual sales summit. It was the first time that I’d be putting faces to names and shaking hands with the people who showed up to my sessions, month after month. It was a pretty big event. There were hundreds of members of the sales team from around the US. After grabbing my badge at the registration desk, I walked towards the main event space, and the sound of hundreds of conversations filled the room. It was that feeling of energy and the buzz of excitement when you’re surrounded by people who are having fun together. As I walked through the mingling crowds, I saw it. There was a giant board, I’m guessing about five feet tall, and at the top it read “Top Producers of the Year.” Now, if you’re in sales, you know what these boards represent. It’s the ultimate recognition and a testament to your consistency, grit, and incredibly hard work. I found myself looking through the photos and the names. These were my clients’ top producers, the ones who really earned their spot. And as I looked at each photo, a pattern started to emerge. I noticed a face that I recognized and then another. And then another. I couldn’t help but start to smile as I kept scrolling through this list of the fifteen names on the wall. All but one of them were people who were showing up to the monthly workshops month after month. I was shocked. Not just proud, but genuinely humbled. Now, I’d like to believe that our training played a part in their success. But the truth is, they earned it. Their spot on that board, their results, their massive recognition—it was a direct reflection of the continuous investments that they had been making in themselves. They didn’t wait to be great. They were proactively working on stepping up their skills one month at a time. What You Need to Remember Now, if you take one thing from this article, let it be this: top producers don’t wait for success. They prepare for it. That board wasn’t just a list of the most talented sales reps. It was also a list of the most intentional. It was a direct consequence of four behaviors that they had displayed: Showed up to the monthly workshops even though they were optional. Asked hard questions in these workshops. Applied new techniques and tools and put them into action immediately. Treated sharpening their skills as a non-negotiable. Here’s the truth: the person who dedicates one hour a week to getting better will always beat the person who’s naturally gifted but a little lazy. Intention beats talent every single time. 6 Best Practices to Inject Intention Into Your Week So how do you inject that kind of intention into your own week? Here are six best practices to help you: Show Up Before You Need To These top sales reps on the board didn’t wait for their production to dip before they started investing in training. They were already winning, and they still kept showing up. Skill building is like compounding interest. Small, consistent investments create exponential returns. Treat Sales Training Like a Workout You don’t go to the gym once and expect to be in shape. You show up three times a week for a year. That’s how you need to approach your professional development. Consistency is greater than intensity. Every session you attend adds a new tool, a perspective, or an edge to sharpen your game. Decide That You Are Always a Learner The reps who excelled weren’t afraid to ask questions that other people might consider basic. They were seeking clarity, not just validation. Remember, ego is expensive. Curiosity is profitable. Never stop being the most curious person in the room. Don’t Confuse Activity for Growth Many sales reps are busy; they’re active. But how many are truly intentional about growth? Top producers set aside uninterrupted time for professional development even when their schedule is getting full. So block out time to get better, not just to do more. Implement One Thing Immediately After attending a workshop or even listening to a podcast episode, challenge yourself to pick one tactic to put into action within twenty-four hours. Knowledge is power. Implementation is what turns that knowledge into results. Surround Yourself with Other Top Performers It’s easy in sales to get frustrated when we lose a deal or when things are not going our way. By surrounding yourself with other top performers, you’re going to help lift yourself up in those moments when you need a little extra support and motivation. Why This Moment Mattered Seeing that board of top performers, that physical printed validation, it really struck me—the emotion of realizing that the reps who had quietly and consistently invested in themselves all year long, had literally risen to the top. It was a powerful moment and reminded me why not only I do the work that I do, but it also absolutely confirmed that top performers are the ones disciplined enough to invest in themselves. I encourage you to commit to just one of these six tips that I shared today. Write it down and put it into action within twenty-four hours. Momentum doesn’t come from waiting. It comes from action. — The top performers on that board didn’t wait—they invested in training that got results.

    “Why can't they just listen?” We've all thought it. But what if the moment that frustrates you most… is actually an invitation to grow? Momentum's Director of Education and Evaluation, Dr. Ronit Ziv Kreger shares research on why praising effort builds braver, more resilient children and how adopting a beginner's mindset can transform the way we parent. Instead of: “She's so smart.” Try: “I see how hard you worked.” Instead of: “They're wrong.” Try: “What can I learn here?” This is what a growth mindset looks like in real life in our homes, in our relationships, in ourselves.     The Rise & Shine Podcast Series is made possible by the generous support of Bonnie Vozar of Chicago, Illinois.

    The Daily Boost | Coaching You Need. Success You Deserve.

    Most people think they're broken when life slows down. They're not. When momentum disappears, and everything feels like a grind, it's not a lack of discipline or drive — it's misalignment. I've spent 26 years watching what actually works, and real momentum isn't something you force. It emerges when the conditions of your life line up and stay that way. Today I'm sharing the philosophy of inevitable momentum — what it means, why friction is likely holding you back right now, and the simple cycle that keeps successful people moving forward. Featured Story I've been building this philosophy for about 26 or 27 years. Early on, I said life begins when you move. That was real, but it was tactical. Then I started noticing something much bigger happening. When people got genuinely excited about what they were doing, motivation became automatic. And when motivation became automatic, momentum wasn't just possible — it was inevitable. I started calling it inevitable momentum, and I've watched it play out again and again with clients. When life aligns, people don't just inch forward. They move with real clarity, energy, and speed. You can actually see it happen. Important Points Momentum isn't something you force — it emerges when your life's conditions are properly aligned and stay that way. Feeling stuck isn't a personal failure. It's a signal that something has quietly drifted out of alignment in your life. Force will never fix a momentum problem — but clarity will. Seeing what's actually off is always the first real step. Memorable Quotes When awareness leads to alignment and alignment leads to consistent daily movement, momentum becomes inevitable. You're not broken, and you haven't lost your drive. Something in your life has just quietly shifted out of alignment. Willpower never works long-term. Real momentum is free will — it shows up naturally when conditions are right. Scott's Three-Step Approach Start with awareness — get honest about what's draining your energy and where friction is showing up right now. Once you see it clearly, align your daily actions with your values and where you actually are in life right now. Take the next honest step — not perfect, just correct — and let consistent movement build naturally into momentum.

    678: Jamie Siminoff (Ring Doorbell Inventor) - Shark Tank Rejection, Selling to Amazon for $1 Billion, Surviving $3M to $480M Hypergrowth, Hiring Passionate People Over Experts, and Jeff Bezos's Leadership Lessons

    The Learning Leader Show With Ryan Hawk

    www.LearningLeader.com The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. My Guest: Jamie Siminoff is the founder of Ring, which he sold to Amazon for over a billion dollars. He's an inventor and builder who couldn't hear his doorbell while working in his garage, so he built a video doorbell. When his wife said it made her feel safer, he realized technology had changed, and home security needed a complete reinvention. Ring became the world's largest home security company with a mission to make neighborhoods safer. Key Learnings  Jeff Bezos reads and writes his own stuff. When Jamie asked Jeff to write something for the book's back cover, Jeff actually read it and wanted his own curated quote that was from him. Jeff loves entrepreneurs, so they kept him out of negotiations. After the Whole Foods deal, Amazon learned to keep Jeff out of negotiations because he finds it tough to negotiate hard with someone he respects. Hardware companies can die while growing fast. Ring grew from $3M to $30M to $174M to $480M, which sounds amazing. But to go from $170M to $480M, you're buying hundreds of millions of dollars of product when you're selling less than that. If sales growth slows, you're basically going out of business. Going from $480M to over a billion in revenue was like being on a motorcycle at 200 miles an hour. If a leaf falls down and hits you, you're dead. At Amazon, when Ring said, "We need another billion dollars to order stuff for next year," Amazon said, "Okay, what else do you want?" There are different types of entrepreneurs. Jamie is an inventor/entrepreneur. There are business entrepreneurs who are maniacal business people we've never heard of that have just crushed it. Jamie is maniacal on product and brings invention into how they run the company. Hire marathon runners. Marathons are the dumbest thing any human could ever do. Even if you win, no one cares. Jamie finished the Boston Marathon in 22,000th place and he's so proud of himself. You want people that don't care about external validation; they just care about getting the mission done. AI has democratized all information. With AI making it so you don't even need to know C++ programming anymore, fill your business with passionate people who care about the mission and they'll crush anything. When building your team, start with the mission. Jamie tells people, "Our mission is to make neighborhoods safer. Do you want to work on making neighborhoods safer? Because if you don't, you're going to be miserable here. You're going to hear it every day, and you're going to roll your eyes."  Referrals work because people don't want to let you down. The best hires are when someone's referred by someone (uncle, friend, whatever) because they feel guilty. They don't want to let the person who referred them down. Find an infinite truth to work on. Amazon's core principles are infinite: Will customers always want lower price, more selection, and faster delivery? Yes. If you deliver in 30 minutes, they'll want it in 10 minutes. Making neighborhoods safer is an infinite thing to work on. Your wife saying one thing can change everything. Jamie built a video doorbell so he could hear the door from his garage. His wife said, "It makes me feel safer at home." That's when he realized technology had changed and home security needed a whole new approach. The hard part is bringing the infinite down to the tactical. When you have an infinite mission, you can get overwhelmed trying to solve it all at once. You have to figure out what to do every single day to work toward that infinite goal. Shark Tank was a disaster that turned into everything. Jamie went on Shark Tank desperately needing money. He got zero offers and cried in his car after. But when it aired, the boost in sales gave them cash to hire people and build Ring, which started the clock on their success. Sometimes you can't stop because you're in too deep. After Shark Tank bombed, Jamie couldn't back out. He'd already ordered too many products and owed too much money. He'd be personally bankrupt if he stopped. People think he's tough for keeping going, but he didn't have a choice. Being naive is a superpower. Great inventions are things people say can't happen because if they could happen, they'd already be out there. You have to be naive enough to say "I think I can do this" or "I don't even know that I can't." People said you couldn't build a battery-operated camera on WiFi. Jamie had never built anything before, so what did he know? They just went out and tried to put some parts together that seemed like they would work. Knowing too much gets in the way of doing the work. If you're thinking and analyzing the whole world, that's time you're not inventing, building, making calls. When are you actually doing the work? The Ring.com domain negotiation was survival. The owner originally wanted $750K for the domain. Jamie had $178K in the bank on the day he was supposed to pay. He called and said "My board said I can't do the deal, but they approved $175K today and $1M total over two years." The guy hung up, called back, and said fine. There was no board, it was just Jamie.  The stress internalized and destroyed him. Jamie wasn't sleeping and was super stressed. There are different types of entrepreneurs: some can handle that stress and sleep like a baby. Jamie internalized it, and it affected him terribly. Be transparent at home. Jamie's son was six years old and knew where the business was. His kindergarten teacher would say, "I hear the business isn't going well." They just had open, adult conversations about everything. Work-life integration, not balance. Jamie integrated work, life, and family together. His son came with him to pick up the first DoorBot in China. Oliver has been to 40 countries and almost every state because he traveled to every meeting. Bring your kid to the meeting. People asked, "How do you bring your kid to a meeting?" Jamie said, "Who do you think they're gonna remember more?" We're always scared to be different. Follow your passion, but make money when you need to. It's hard to see anyone who's achieved greatness who didn't do what they loved. But there are times you have to work your ass off to make money (Jamie was a bellhop and valet parking cars). When you set out to do something, do something you care about. If you fail trying to make money, that really sucks. If you fail trying to do something you love, at least you tried to do something you love. If Ring fails, they try to make neighborhoods safer. That's noble. You can tell who's successful by how fast they respond. It's a weird flip-flop of what it should be. You'd think a successful person should respond in a month, but the people running at the highest levels are actually very efficient. There's something about it. First principles thinking eliminates recurring meetings. There's no way every single Monday at 9 AM you have something important to talk about. The world can't exist like that. Meet when you need to do something, not on some cadence. Hire the best and let them work. Get the best quarterback, best kicker, best coach. Let them work together, let them practice, have the plays. You don't need to get together every day to talk about how you're feeling. No standing meetings, zero recurring one-on-ones. Jamie doesn't have a standing meeting with his team in any cadence. He talks to people all day long, all night long, Sundays, but it's event-based. "We have to get sales up on this, where are the issues?" If you're not doing your job, we'll fire you. Service to others is the best thing you can do. A year from now, Jamie would be celebrating something on the charitable side. Probably something with their work in South Central LA with LAPD, or at their 75-acre farm in Missouri helping the town that's been impacted by opioids and industrial farming.
