How well did you sleep last night? Do you wake up feeling rested? Today, Jay welcomes renowned neuroscientist, sleep expert, and bestselling author Dr. Matthew Walker to unpack the profound importance of sleep and how it shapes every facet of our health and wellbeing. Bestselling author of Why We Sleep, Dr. Matthew Walker brings scientific rigor and heartfelt clarity to one of the most misunderstood and underestimated aspects of our lives. Matthew opens the discussion by challenging the myth of the 'eight-hour rule.' While the average adult does best with seven to nine hours of sleep, the focus quickly shifts beyond just duration. Instead, Matthew introduces a more holistic four part framework—Quantity, Quality, Regularity, and Timing, or QQRT. This framework highlights how sleep is not simply about how long one sleeps, but also how deeply, how consistently, and how well it aligns with our natural biological rhythms. Jay and Matthew's conversation also tackles common disruptors of restorative sleep, including caffeine, alcohol, and excessive exposure to artificial light. Dr. Walker discusses how these elements can interfere with the brain’s ability to enter deep and REM sleep, the latter being especially important for emotional processing, hormonal regulation, and memory consolidation. Sleep, it turns out, influences far more than individual health. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Know If You’re Getting Enough Sleep How to Improve Sleep Using the QQRT Formula How to Align Your Sleep With Your Body’s Internal Clock How to Avoid Waking Up Tired Every Morning How to Optimize Your Evening Routine for Better Sleep How to Fall Back Asleep After Waking Up at Night How to Diagnose Sleep Apnea at Home With scientific insight and practical wisdom, the episode paints a vivid picture of how sleep, when prioritized and protected, can serve as a catalyst for healing, clarity, and sustainable energy.

How to be More Successful. We all try to get good grades to later get a well-paid job and succeed in life. Most people including our parents believe it is a direct toad to success. However, according to Robert Kiyosaki, author of Why ‘A' Students Work for ‘C' Students and ‘B' Students Work for the Government, it's actually the other way around. It's “A” students that end up being employed by “C” students. We found 8 reasons why “C” students are often more successful in life. Now that's some food for thought if you want to transform your own life or give good advice to your kids. TIMESTAMPS “C” students question the significance of the academic system. 1:30 They're not afraid to fail or get bad grades. 2:37 “C” students are risk takers. 3:39 They're not submissive followers. 4:45 “C” students have people skills. 5:34 They find simpler ways to get things done. 6:30 “C” students are dreamers. 7:16 They have their own definition of success. 7:53 Music: https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/... SUMMARY -“C” students are more interested in a straightforward approach and unfortunately for them, academia doesn't offer that. They hack their way into the system by taking on odd jobs or learning outside of school. -While “A” students aim for perfection on their first try, “C” students aren't afraid to fail, even several times! They embrace their shortcomings and learn from them. -“C” students, who received their fair share of “Fs” in their academic life, aren't afraid to leap into the unknown. They take calculated risks to figure out what they really want in life. -“C” students tend to question everything. They're not the “Yes” group; they're more like the “Yes, but…” team. -Besides experimenting in the work force, “C” students also devote themselves to building networks that can benefit them in the long run when they enter the real world. -“C” students don't wanna put much energy into accomplishing a task, they'd rather be investing their time and effort in pursuing their dream. -“C” students are more interested in thinking about what they wanna do in life rather than being stuck in the four walls of a classroom. -“C” students decide what they want done, and “A” students are good at taking and follow these instructions.

Today, I'll be sharing findings from a paper authored by a team of researchers based in Sweden.Entitled A Large-Scale Experiment on New Year's Resolutions: Approach-Oriented Goals are More Successful than Avoidance-Oriented Goals, this paper was published in the reputable peer-reviewed journal PLOS ONE in December 2020.The researchers aimed to explore the nature of New Year's resolutions, individuals' confidence levels in adhering to their goals, and their overall success rates.They investigated whether framing resolutions as "approach-oriented" or "avoidance-oriented" impacted their achievement rates.Additionally, they examined whether receiving support in the form of information and exercises for goal-setting influenced resolution success.For more information, visit our blog at https://lipedema-simplified.org/blog/.

This week it was my pleasure to welcome Richard Medcalf to the show for a discussion about his book, Making Time for Strategy: How to Be Less Busy and More Successful. Richard describes himself as "what you get if you were to put a McKinsey consultant, a slightly unorthodox pastor and an entrepreneur into a blender". He is the founder of Xquadrant, which helps elite leaders reinvent their 'success formula' and multiply their impact. His personal clients include CEOs of billion-dollar corporations, successful serial entrepreneurs, and the founders of tech 'unicorns'.  Richard has advised the C-Suite for over 25 years. After a Masters at Oxford University, where he came top in his year, he joined a premier strategy consultancy and later became the youngest-ever Partner. He then spent 11 years at tech giant Cisco in an elite team reporting to the CEO. In this episode, we uncover the power of strategic leadership, time allocation, and the impact of energizing activities on productivity. Richard shares real client success stories and practical tactics to move beyond mere task management and into deep strategic thinking. In addition, Richard and I explore the pitfalls of being overwhelmed by daily tasks, the transformative power of taking time for rest and reflection, and the shift from task orientation to strategic planning. Richard offers listeners practical insights and actionable tactics to guide you towards more effective time management and lasting success. ________________________________________ Connect with Richard: Website Book Free Assessment & Resources LinkedIn Twitter ________________________________________ Connect with Erik: Sign Up For Our Newsletter LinkedIn  Facebook  Instagram and Threads ________________________________________ Learn more about your ad choices.

Host Bill Ringle's mission with this show is to provide the strategies, insights, and resources that will unlock the growth potential of your business through these powerful conversations. Interview Insights Top 3 Takeaways Responsibility is personal. I am responsible for my thoughts and my actions. Accountability is an agreement. It's something that people use to forge a contract. A single universal type of leader is a myth. Different leaders excel under different circumstances. Talent is rare, but strength is something each of us can acquire. It may be by strengthening ourselves or hiring someone whose strong suit complements our weak areas. Read the Show Notes from this Episode Andrew's first work experience was at his father's hardware store when he was 10. By observing his father's interactions with clients and employees, he learned how to have an executive presence. [01:14] His father's teaching of honesty, authenticity, and being true to oneself played a major role in Andrew's career in landing him his first CEO client. [02:46] Why is leadership a process? [05:21] Explain more about how no perfect leadership style fits all businesses at all times under all circumstances. [06:16] What are responsibility and accountability, and how they differ from each other? [09:44] Why decisiveness is critical to good leadership. CASE: Gustav responded to a crisis of his company's baby formula possibly being contaminated. [13:28] What can wel learn from the insight that people and profits are not an either-or consideration, but that both can be served? [17:55] My Quest for the Best lighting round begins.

Hear what good leaders should really be thinking about  Richard Medcalf describes himself as "what you get if you were to put a McKinsey consultant, a slightly unorthodox pastor and an entrepreneur into a blender.” In this podcast, you'll hear from an amazing thinker who has tackled strategic challenges in companies all over the world. In his new book, Making Time for Strategy, Richard speaks about the difficulties he has encountered working with high-powered leaders. Far too often, they find themselves focused on the wrong things---from how to respond to emails to how to get tasks completed on time. Instead, Richard preaches that a leader's mindset should be focused on the future, where the organization is going, and how everyone in that organization needs to be aligned around a core strategy to get it there. Listen and learn! Watch and listen to our conversation here Richard outlines four important ways you can refocus your time and energy to get where you want to go and find pleasure in the journey of getting there (TIME): Tactics Influence Mindset Environment About Richard Medcalf Richard founded xquadrant in 2017 with the mission of helping elite leaders reinvent their success formula and multiply their impact on their purpose, their people and their profit.

Hi, I'm Andi Simon. I'm your host and your guide. And my job is to help you get off the brink. I want you to see, feel and think in new ways, so that you can change. And if you come here and listen, you know that each time I bring you somebody new, it's because they've done something that really is transformative in some fashion. They're tackling a problem that my listeners, my audiences, my viewers are all tackling as well. And I'm so really honored today to have Richard Medcalf here from Paris. And it's a wonderful opportunity for us to share his new book, Making Time for Strategy, but also to share Richard. Let me give you a little bit of Richard's personality. He sends me an email, and he wants to be on my podcast. Why? "The first thing is because I'm a fan," he said. "I will thank you for the time and energy you invest in putting this out into the world." I have not had many of those emails, even though I have lots of emails from our listeners. But that was really a sweet opener. The second: he said he was sure that my audience, our audience, will find value in the topic, because many of our listeners will be running teams or businesses and hitting the ceiling of complexity, as daily operational demands suck all their time, leaving no space for strategic thinking. Now I'm a Blue Ocean Strategist. I work with lots and lots of companies who are seeking to create markets, not simply compete in them, which is Blue Ocean thinking. And they often get so tied up in making the plan, they forget they have to do something with it. And conversely, though, if they don't think about the plan, all their actions can take them nowhere, a very good point we're going to focus on. And Richard thinks I'm a good speaker, which we will see today, because I think he's a good speaker. He describes himself as what you get if you were to put a McKinsey consultant, a slightly unorthodox pastor, and an entrepreneur into a blender. So you have an idea of what we're going to talk about today. He's the founder of xquadrant, and a trusted adviser to exceptional CEOs and entrepreneurs and their leadership teams. I think you're going to enjoy him because he has advised all kinds of folks in all large and small companies. We're going to let you hear his story from his own perspective. It's much better than reading it. But he's binational. He's both English and French and lives near Paris, happily married and the proud father of two. He's also a licensed lay minister in the Anglican Church, and has an insatiable love for spicy food and the electric guitar. Is that enough for us to think of this mash up today? Richard Medcalf is joining me now. So happy to have you on today. Richard Medcalf: Yeah, thank you, Andi. Pleasure to be here. And thank you for the great intro. Andi Simon: Tell our listeners and our viewers who is Richard Medcalf, because your background is rich with experiences that have led you now into your own business. I liked what you discovered as you were wandering through. You have been very successful, whether it was Cisco or elsewhere, and who are you so that they can now understand why you're so focused on making time for strategy. Richard Medcalf: Yeah, thanks, Andi. Well, obviously strap yourself in if you've got a spare six hours, because talking about myself is my favorite topic. So here we go. I'll try to keep it brief. I better keep it brief. But so yeah, so I grew up in the UK. Started at Oxford University, went into strategy consulting, started at that point to move over to Paris. Five years later, I'm still here. I'm married to a French woman and have bilingual kids and everything else. So life doesn't always take you in ways that you expect. When I was at Bynum, in my strategy consulting company, I became the youngest ever partner. I'd been there about 10 years, and decided it was time to become a smaller fish in a bigger pond, rather than a big fish in a small pond. And Cisco was knocking at my door, and I thought it'd be interesting, you know, a huge tech company. Joining them, I did various roles. The last role was a small team set up by the CEO of Cisco and its chairman in order to kind of catalyze strategic relationships between Cisco and its key customers. I like to describe it as fulfilling rash commitments made by the chief exec when he was talking to big customers. And that was all great. And I enjoyed that. And it was quite prestigious in its own way and all the rest of it. But I got to a moment when I said, you know, Richard, what do you want as a legacy? What do you want to tell your great grandchildren in the future when you're 90 and they're on your knee, and they're asking you about your professional life, what you did in your job? And I realized that although I really enjoy and I still enjoy creating financial results for my clients, and back in the day, I was doing that a lot. I realized I didn't want to just talk about how I helped AT or whoever it was, increase the EBITDA margin by 1%. So I started to think, well, what do I really want? What are the real stories that I want to tell, you know, of my life and my professional life? And that's when I started to really deep dive into, what makes me different? What's my biggest gift? What's my passion, all that kind of stuff. And I started to realize that I went to work at this intersection of leadership, strategy and purpose, or to put it another way, helping people, great leaders. I suppose the way I now describe it, or they didn't describe it that way at the time, was, I want to help great leaders reinvent themselves to achieve breakthrough goals that change the world. So there's a few things in there, that personal transformation, and it's about making a positive impact in the world. So up to now, I've given you all the external facts that allowed me to build this business and my new business. You know, I work with amazing leaders, CEOs of billion dollar companies, some of the founders of scaleups, tech unicorns. One of my clients is an Olympic medalist and is now building a billion dollar business. Another of my clients was nominated as Entrepreneur of the Year by Ernst and Young. These are amazing people. But they're already impressive, but they're looking to connect their impact or make it make a big difference. But let me take you back to my childhood. With me, my sister was born mentally handicapped, very seriously mentally handicapped. She passed away just a couple of months ago. And she made a huge impact on me. She was an amazing character, very determined, very joyful. But we had very different paths. You know, like she stayed at home, she needed 24 hour care, a whole care team. She couldn't be left alone. Basically, she was so needy. Andi Simon: Yes, but it sounds like it had a big impact on who you were. Richard Medcalf: And yeah, I've realized that recently. Yeah, I realized that recently. I mean, I had this high flying career, went to Oxford. I went to a high tier strategy consulting company. I went to Cisco. I started my business. I move countries, all this stuff. And she didn't do any of that. And so I have this real sense that when we have the gifts, the talents, the resources, the opportunities, we kind of owe it to the world to make it a better place and to make an impact. And yet I see so often, we end up in our comfort zone, scared of doing things because we're a bit worried about what we might lose if we were to dare to do something different. Even when we're playing a big game, we can be busy, but in our comfort zone. So impact is a huge word for me because of that impact. Andi Simon: It's interesting, I read an article this morning about purpose. And don't worry about purpose unless you have an impact. Purpose-driven companies don't necessarily do anything, they just have a purpose, and actually I worked with one about a month ago. But your point about having impact is important for our listeners, because you are coming to that epiphany, that aha moment, where more of the same of what you're doing, even if it's financially lucrative, or even if it's for good companies, isn't personally purposeful. And that becomes a real interesting driver for you of what your calling is and why it's so important that you choose where you go, and you do it in a very intentional fashion, so that you have your own legacy and can answer to those kids and grandkids. You know why I've done what I've done in this life? Because it has made other lives better. So tell us from your company perspective, as well as from the book. You know, my segue is, how are you doing that? Richard Medcalf: How am I making that impact? Well, I think concretely, what I do, we're one-on-one with high-end leaders, CEOs or founders, entrepreneurs, sometimes C-suite leaders with their teams. I have a couple of programs that I run with perhaps more junior leaders. And I'm always helping them think about how they don't need to challenge my thinking. Where do I need to shift who I'm being as a leader in order to achieve things which right now are outside my zone as a reference? And, you know, what is that? What's really important? I think it's the fundamental question of what's really important in terms of what I want to accomplish, what's really important in terms of where I put my attention and my focus? What's really important in terms of where I build my skills? I think I described myself as being strategically lazy. I've always been a strategist. So my life, you know, it's why I got to the top, first at Oxford University, because I just knew where to put the focus, and what was important, what wasn't so important when I was studying. And I think it's strategic laziness. I just want to get a big result by focusing my efforts on the key areas. So I think I bring that to all these different parts of leadership, from ambition to goal setting to habit formation to dealing with people. That's kind of, I guess, the fundamental part. But what I find is that in all those conversations, whenever I sat down with a new leader, and we were looking at how you're going to multiply your impact, how you're going to, really just in the exponential, how you're going to break through, the first conversation we would always have, and he was like, "Yeah, I'd love to do that Richard. But right now, to be honest, I'm just so overloaded. I've got so much on my plate. You know, where do I go? Where do I go from here? And how do I even make time for all this exciting stuff?" I know, it's possible for me because that really was the seed of the book that I've now written. Andi Simon: But it's an interesting reflection. I am an anthropologist, and you're an observer. And as you're talking, I'm thinking about you meeting with your clients and listening to their stories, because we're story creators. And the story was a catalyst to change your own story in your mind. And I often preach that because telling stories isn't incidental, it doesn't stay outside of the other person. And as you're talking and sharing your story, our listeners' stories are also changing. But what's important is, as you're coaching your clients and they're sharing their sense of pain, success has now turned into, "I no longer have a vision, I no longer can see where we're going. I'm not even quite sure how it's all aligned with a strategy." You had an epiphany, a moment, which said, Wow, there's something here beyond simply helping them personally transform it that could be instrumental for them to get back to being the big leaders who are supposed to be visionaries. And they're not supposed to be worried about managing the tactical details. They're supposed to be leading people into some particular direction. So once you had this epiphany, then the book came out of it. Richard Medcalf: The first thing I want to just clarify is, for me, strategy is really a shorthand for strategic activity. So as a top leader, we might lead literally focusing on corporate strategy. But no matter where we are in the organization, we always need to focus on what is the most strategic, what's going to move the needle, what's going to have the biggest leverage. And that's really, when I talk about strategy, I mean that. So for somebody, that literally is: "I need to think about the vision and strategy for my company." But then I need to just step back and think about how am I going to maximize the impact for my business unit, or my department or my team or myself? So, yes, I think the book came out not necessarily immediately, but I started to go, "I've got stories here." I realized that a lot of people think that what they need is a time management book, a productivity tip that you think about how to maximize, filter their emails better or something. What I realized was that no, the breakthorughs my clients had were in these deep conversations. They weren't just in the area of tactics, which can be important, but it's not everything. So with the book, I wanted to really bring, if you like a transformation perspective, to this question of how do I free myself up for this? So because I realized that was what my clients were dealing with, they knew that theory about, you know, working on the important things, even if they're not urgent, and this kind of stuff, they knew all that. But what was really getting in their way. And when I realized this, I came to a few key areas I wanted to share. I tested it with those leaders. I tested it with a couple of group programs that I ran with multiple leaders from different companies in and then I realized, yeah, there's a book in this. It's actually quite easy to write because they've got the experience. Andi Simon: Pause for a second, Richard, because what you're saying is, while they didn't need time management, the title of your book is Making Time for Strategy. And so I just want to make sure that the listener understands that it isn't simply reorganizing your to-do list or your calendar for the day, it's a different way of thinking about what is important, and you're seeing, also it's not just for the senior leadership teams. This should be on every person in that organization's thinking about what it is that matters. So I can also not do things that are off-strategy and are done the way we've always done it, but don't need to be done anymore. Am I hearing you correctly? Richard Medcalf: Yeah, that's right. I mean, the way I see it, we live in a world of infinity. There is infinite stuff available to us for the first time ever. We've got infinite messages in our inbox, IM messaging platforms, infinite social media opportunities to converse and connect with people, infinite content to consume, to stream, to read, to whatever. It's just like, the more we look at, the more recommendations we get, and we have more to look at. So it's never ending. And so there's so many opportunities for every leader. It's infinity. And so we can't beat infinity with productivity. Most people, they hit the accelerator, they try to go faster and faster. And they find within hours in the day, they've hit the ceiling of complexity, as it can be called. Where do we go from here? And what I found is, we need to level up. We need to change gear, we can't change gear when one foot's on the accelerator. We have to start to invest our time, rather than investing more in your business and you're making like zero profit. You've got to invest in the future. You can't make things better, probably you're going to have your costs go up over time and you're going to get a business. Most leaders are running their life like that business. They're using their time. Every day is going and they've not got any margin available to invest in the breakthrough activities to invest in the future. And so they're just running along on a hamster wheel. Andi Simon: So I'm curious, what did you advise in your book Making Time for Strategy to help them get off that hamster wheel, reassess, and now invest in time? And I love your comments. You can't touch infinity with productivity. And I have a hunch you have a bunch of things that I want to make sure that we have time to discuss with our listeners because I think there's something of great value for them. And I think your discovery is very powerful. Please share. Richard Medcalf: So in the book, I talked quite a bit to start with about what you want to put your time on. It's really important. So I like to say, you can't free yourself up from things, you've got to free yourself up for something. What if you've actually got a spare minute or spare hour? What do you want to put your time on? What's going to make a breakthrough? So I spend a bit of time talking about that. And for me, people get clear on that. But in terms of how much we actually get into that freeing ourselves up, there's four strategies to use. And they actually spell the word TIME, which I was very happy about when I noticed that. So there's TACTICS. We do need a plan to get back into profitability. If you'd like more time, we do need a plan to go get rid of things which are not serving us and to stay at that level. So there is a tactical issue. The issue is that most people have over rotated on tactics, and they haven't thought about the other parts. But if we're actually finding diaries too full, we need to deal tactically with it. Then I is for INFLUENCE. I like to say, if you want to go on a diet or exercise, the people that are going to get in the way are your own family. Other people are going to want the chocolate cake under your nose, because they're used to dealing with you in a certain way. And when you're trying to change who you are and what you focus on, it impacts them. So in a business situation, you can make your plan or tactical plan for what you want to do and meetings you don't want to be in anymore and projects you don't want to do anymore. But you've got to sell that internally, but tell your boss that "I don't want to be in that. It's not helpful for me to be in that meeting anymore." But you've got a colleague saying, "I don't want this stuff coming from your department into my department because it's not what we should be focusing on." You've got to sell it to your team. "I need you to deal with things in a different way and stop involving me in the details." So influence is a really key part. That's what I call the Leadership Challenge. How are we actually leading other people so that we can take that higher ground? Then M is for MINDSET. Mindset is really important. That defines the bounds of what is necessary, possible, desirable in our lives. If we don't, if we don't have a good mindset, a broad enough mindset, well, we believe that we haven't got any choices in this matter. So I'll give you an example of one of my clients. I was helping him drive some transformational projects for a large company. He was in the C-suite of a several-billion-dollar company. And he was driving through internal transformation projects. I was helping him with that as he was onboarding into the C-suite. One day he comes to me and says, "Richard, I need some tips. I'm spending too much time on my email." So I joke and say, "Well, you pay me too much money if you want me to go and go through those, but tell me more." He explains, "Well, you know, I don't want to be the guy who's untrustworthy, unreliable or not a team player, who people are waiting on to reply to them, that you're stuck on projects." Andi Simon: So it's not alone. And it's a common recurring theme. My clients say, "I have to manage my email." But what did you tell him? Richard Medcalf: So he'll say, "Yeah, so that's why I have to regularly go into my inbox and help people." So I was like, "Okay, I can't help you." "You can't help me?" "Well, whatever I tell you about spending more time on these important projects, you're not going to do it because you want to be a reliable, trustworthy team player. And if I tell you not to do that, you're not going to do it. It's against your values. And I totally understand." "So, okay, well, what do I do?" "Tell me about your CEO. What does he want us to do?" "Oh, these transformational projects are going to make a big difference." "Okay. Where is your board? That, you know, makes a big impact on the bottom line." "They really want these big projects to happen." "Okay, what about your customers?" "If they were to know about it, they'd really want this internal transformation because it's going to free up the team to work on their projects." "Okay. What about the team itself?" "Oh, yeah. Well, they're desperate for more modern work experience." "Okay, so you're telling me that all these people want you to focus on these transformational projects?" "Yeah, that's right." "Okay. Well, I put it to you that that's what you're paid the big bucks for, and that when you're in your inbox, you're doing the easy stuff. You're actually being unreliable, untrustworthy, and not a team player. When you're doing the big stuff, then you're being the reliable trustworthy team player that you've been." Andi Simon: He really had to change his mindset, didn't he? Richard Medcalf: So in that one conversation, he got it and it was the aha moment. He didn't need any other tips from me because he had shifted his identity in the way he saw things. And so for all of us, we have places in our mind which are holding us back. And that's the mindset challenge. And actually, before that, let me pause. You don't have to do these in order, actually, in the book, and you can do it even before buying the book. I have an assessment that allows you to actually identify each of these areas. What's your score? What's your total score? What's your score on each category? And therefore, where's your weak spot? Where should you focus first? Because perhaps there's no point doing the tactics if your mindset is getting in the way. Or, you know, if actually you've got the plan, but you haven't got enough influence, then you need to start there. So you can read the book, but not only... Andi Simon: I'm sure you heard a little pause in our conversation. Richard in Paris froze for a moment. So we're going to pick up the conversation here, because we're down to the E. And the E is an important part of TIME. If in case you haven't noticed, it ends it but it also creates a setting for which everything else is taking place. Richard, please share with us what E stands for. Richard Medcalf: The final part of the type acronym is E for ENVIRONMENT. Environment is important because I wanted this to be a book for leaders. And as a leader, we have a responsibility to make time for our own strategy, our own focus, but also we need to create an environment where our team can thrive, where our team can focus on what's important as well. And that's our whole organization. So many organizations, they get caught up in busy work with too many priorities, mindlessly doing what the boss said, without thinking about "Why all this stuff?" And the question for the environment challenge is, how do I scale this into my team? How do I actually create a culture where, when I have something to delegate, my team is able to receive it because they've got TIME. Or if I've got a new project that I wanted to deliver because I've been thinking strategically, that we have capacity in the organization to take it on. And so for me, that's a really important part. We often focus on our own personal productivity. But in the book, I wanted to focus more on how do I go about changing the culture of my team in my organization, on this topic as well. Andi Simon: Do you have a client situation you can describe that might illustrate these four points and make them come alive a little bit? I can see them because I'm working with them. I hope my audience can as well. Anything you might share? Richard Medcalf: Yeah, so often I find that the breakthrough is on an individual basis for one of these points. So you don't necessarily need them all at the same time to get your breakthrough. That's why I said at the start of the book, you can take an assessment to find out which area you should focus on first. But I'll give you some examples. I've talked about mindset already, the fact that it's one conversation. Let's say around influence, it's quite a key one. Now, often one thing about influence is around not setting the boundaries with people. So often what happens is, we take on things from people and we haven't actually created an agreement with them. So yeah, I've had several clients who've realized, as we've talked about influence, that actually they have not had a real conversation with their own team about what do I expect from you in our relationship? When should you bring a problem to me? And how would you know where you need my support? And how do I want you to bring it to me? So many times, team members seem like leaders and feel they're being Sherlock Holmes, trying to diagnose the problems that their team brings to them because their team just says, "Hey, can we talk about x. I've got a problem with x." So in the book, for example, it's been one of the tactics which works really well, is the thing called SCARS. It's a five step acronym. It's a way we can bring a subject to a manager in a way that the manager can then really deal with. So, Situation: what are we talking about here? Context: what's the background I need to know? Analysis: what have I actually done to examine the different options available? Recommendation: what's the one or two options that you'd want to put forward on the table at this point that's memorable, and then Stakeholders is the last one, which is, don't use me as your manager to have to pull rank. Have you spoken to the other people who might be affected by this decision? Do they agree? So often, many team members come to us wanting us to make a decision so that they can then pull rank and say, "The boss said we're doing it this way." So the Stakeholders are actually key parts of SCARS. The S is quite important to make sure that they're actually managing the stakeholder environment, not just putting that back on it. The point is, when you've got this, when you've got those points, your team starts to come to you with what I call fully formed requests. But they actually know, "Hey, boss, I want to talk to you about the new, unknown Austrian office that we want to open. There are three options, ABC, these are the pros and cons." That's the analysis. The recommendation is: given all that, I think we should go for the city center office, because ABC, if that's too expensive for our budget, I'd recommend we go for an office by the airport, because of X Y, Z. And we explain that and then stakeholders: by the way, I've talked to the country manager, and he is happy with any of those options. And we've got something we can work with. Andi Simon: I am fascinated by your insights into how to change people so that they can be more effective, thinking beyond the immediate tactical thing, and how do I get this done. They can do it in a way which shifts their minds, their mindset, so they can see a bigger picture and a better way, changing that culture and culture. As an anthropologist, cultural change is one of the most challenging things, but one person at a time is extremely effective. We're getting to the point where we need to wrap up, as much as I would love to keep going on. But you know, as you said, you could talk all day. I have no doubt that you have great wisdom to share. Share with us two or three things you don't want our listeners to forget. And then we'll talk about where they can reach you and how they can get the book.  Richard Medcalf: Sure. So I think the first thing to realize is that the number one key performance indicator governing your future success as a leader is strategic time. I view investing in the future to make the future better. It's the difference between leaders who plateau and stagnate and find it hard to progress, and leaders where every year seems to bring new opportunities. It's that investing in the future that's so important and many leaders said they're running on empty. They hardly have any time in the week to work on those game changing projects, so it really matters. Second thing I want you to remember is that it's not just a productivity challenge.All these four areas: tactics, environment, mindset, and environment are really important. Work on the one that's most important for you. Go and take the test, if you want, on my website; it will help you. But, find out which one is important and really focus on that. Deal with the limiting factor and everything else will become a lot easier. And thirdly, always get really clear on what that breakthrough project would be. If you've got three minutes, just put a timer on your phone and brainstorm. Just write down questions. If I could answer some questions, if I had time to think and time to work, what would those powerful questions be? That would be a game changer for me. So you might write down, How can I get the best out of so-and-so on my team? How is artificial intelligence going to change my industry or change my workflows in the next three years? You know, how can I be more influential with a CEO? What new networks? Do I need to become part of it? Whatever it is, start to brainstorm interesting questions. When you do that, I guarantee after three or four minutes of writing ideas down, you'll suddenly go, Oh, there is a new level available to me. There is a new level that I could be involved with if I wasn't so stuck in the day-to-day. Andi Simon: Richard, I love our conversation. I have all kinds of thoughts, but where can they reach you and get your book? Richard Medcalf: So the book is available on Amazon. It's called Making Time for Strategy: How to be Less Busy and More Successful. And if you can also go to makingtimeforstrategy.com. Find out details about the book there. If you're interested, I put some resources specifically for listeners of the podcast at my company website, which is xquadrant.com/onthebrink. And there'll be a link to the assessment I mentioned, a link to the book, and a few other resources as well. That could be the best place to start. Andi Simon: Good, good. And we'll certainly have it up here. And we'll be promoting it as well. I want to make sure the listener understands a couple of things that I was struck by in Richard's conversation. Remember that humans are really futurists. And the only way you can live today is to see where we're going tomorrow, what's the future and the future you don't really know so you create and craft an illusion story about it. And now the interesting part for you, as a CEO or member of a C-suite or a manager in your organization, is to help the organization see where it's going, for its customers, its stakeholders, its board, whoever else you're really concerned about. But don't do it by just simply looking at that email list that comes in, or the immediacy of something you need to change. And humans hate change since that amygdala of yours will hijack the new, which is why I bring people like Richard here to talk to you because your brain hates him already. And we are going to love what it can teach you about time and how to invest in it. Because infinity can only be really captured and used well with not productivity, but with reframing it. The changes are here. Now if you haven't read Bernard Marr's book Future Skills, the skills for looking at data, AI, all types of things that are really right in front of us, please don't wait. But I do think making time for strategy can help you prepare yourself emotionally as well as intelligently for intentional transformation. All the time. Somebody once said the future is all around us. It's just not widely distributed. And I love that. I also know that the future is really here. It's today. And now we have to go push our way out. Richard, thank you for joining me today. It's been a pleasure. Now for all of our listeners, thank you for your ideas. Send your emails to info@Andisimon.com and our website is www.simonassociates.net where we talk about all the stuff we have for you there to help you see, feel and think in new ways. My two books are both on Amazon: Rethink: Smashing The Myths of Women in Business and On the Brink: A Fresh Lens to Take Your Business to New Heights. I'm here to help you see, feel and think in new ways. That's what I love to do. My third book coming out in September 2023 is called Women Mean Business. You can't quite get it yet, but I promise to keep you as you subscribe to our podcast in the loop and let you know when it's available. It's going to be a cool book with 101 women telling you their wisdom so that you can soar. On that note, I'm going to say goodbye. Have a wonderful day Richard. Enjoy Paris.

How to be More Successful. We all try to get good grades to later get a well-paid job and succeed in life. Most people including our parents believe it is a direct toad to success. However, according to Robert Kiyosaki, author of Why ‘A' Students Work for ‘C' Students and ‘B' Students Work for the Government, it's actually the other way around. It's “A” students that end up being employed by “C” students. We found 8 reasons why “C” students are often more successful in life. Now that's some food for thought if you want to transform your own life or give good advice to your kids. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Why are so many organizations run by ineffective or toxic leaders? Because it isn't the best leaders that succeed. Its the ones that best understand how to gain power and use power. According to Jeff Pfeffer, the leadership industry has led many prospective leaders astray, providing them with a normative framework that fails to provide an accurate account of how organizations work. Jeff Pfeffer is the Thomas D. Dee II Professor of Organizational Behavior at the Graduate School of Business at Stanford University where he has taught since 1979. He is also the author or co-author of 15 books, the most recent of which is “The 7 Rules of Power'In this episode, we'll hear Greg & Jeff discuss values based leadership, Jeff's course “Paths to Power,” the nature of reciprocity in the workplace and self help books.Episode Quotes:Values based leadershipAt Stanford we talk about values based leadership and on the surface you would say, who could be opposed to values-based leadership? That you ought to lead with values, you want to lead with integrity, authenticity all of these things. But I think we have failed to ask the question: if you're going to have values-based leadership, the next thing you need to ask is how are you going to get the power and influence to actually implement those values? The complexities of work friendsIf you and I are friends and we work in different organizations and probably even in different industries, there is a pure friendship relationship. But as soon as we work for the same place, because organizations are hierarchical, we are both competing. So it's a very mixed motive situation.The calculated mindset of workplace thinkingIt makes complete sense that in interpersonal relationships, the norm of reciprocity is quite strong. But when you get into an organization, you adopt what we call a more “calculative mindset.” In which we're thinking not just, you know did Gregory do something for me, so I need to repay it? But is Gregory going to be part of my life in the future?What is Gregory going to be able to do for me in the future? And if he is not going to be in a position of power, or maybe he's not even going to be in the organization in the future, then as I calculate whether or not I need to repay and what I need to do for him, its much more calculative and less this automatic, normative basis.Show Links: Recommended Resources:Herminia Ibarra on TEDxLondonBusinessSchool talking about: What does it really mean for leaders to be authentic?The Authenticity Paradox by Herminia IbarraUnless You're Oprah, ‘Be Yourself' Is Terrible Advice by Adam GrantHow David Beat's Goliath by Malcolm GladwellGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at Stanford Graduate School of BusinessSpeaker's Profile at Stern Speakers & AdvisorsJeff Pfeffer's WebsiteJeff Pfeffer on LinkedInJeff Pfeffer on TwitterHis Work:Jeff Pfeffer on Google Scholar7 Rules of Power: Surprising--but True--Advice on How to Get Things Done and Advance Your CareerDying for a Paycheck: How Modern Management Harms Employee Health and Company Performance―and What We Can Do About ItLeadership BS: Fixing Workplaces and Careers One Truth at a TimePeople are the Name of the Game: How to be More Successful in Your Career--and LifePower: Why Some People Have It and Others Don'tWhat Were They Thinking?: Unconventional Wisdom About ManagementHard Facts, Dangerous Half-Truths And Total Nonsense: Profiting From Evidence-Based Management

Feeling overwhelmed with your startup? You're not alone. In this episode, Sean and James talk about the challenges of running a business or pursuing goals— from having rough weeks to getting stuck in negative cycles of procrastination. They open up about how these stressors can make everything seem impossible at times, but venting out helps them process their thoughts. They also talked about simple steps on getting back on track: building a support system that keeps them accountable during tough times and being around people to generate positive energy.Key Takeaways: It's normal to feel frustrated, anxious, and even depressed when we're pursuing our goals. But don't let those feelings linger for too long, as they will only hold you back from making progress. Taking steps forward can be challenging at first, but if you work on yourself every day, success is within your reach. Don't let negative emotions hold you back from becoming a better version of yourself — a wiser, more responsible, and more mature individual who can pursue passions without fear or self-doubt.Venting out can release stress and emotions that we feel pent-up inside. It helps us clear our clouded minds, which in turn gives us a better perspective on life's challenges.Surrounding yourself with people can help produce positive energy. Find your community, whether it's online or in-person; these people can lift youtube during tough times.Procrastinating can actually serve as an opportunity for us to make the right choice. When we put off tasks and projects because they make us feel anxious or overwhelmed with worry over what could go wrong - this gives our brain time needed in order to gather all relevant information before deciding on how best to move forward.Episode Quotes:Release the Past, Plan For The Future, and Live In the Present MomentJames [00:04:41]: This present moment is the only time that we truly exist, and yet our minds switch from either being in the past or hoping for a better future, almost just instantly, and it mixes it. And that's what the present really is. And so, our way of being in the present is trying to release the past and not think so much about the future and being able to do things right now. Making an impact now and staying in the present and enjoying what so many people have said enjoying the process, trusting the process. And I realized like that phrase is all about being in the moment, using the time now to plan for a future that you would like to be at, but not identifying so much with it that you feel incomplete without being there. Procrastinating Can Be Viewed As A “Thinking Time” To Help You Make The Right DecisionsSean [00:09:41]: Procrastination time and time again has proven to me that it's giving me a space to think something through. Especially if things are not working, we shouldn't just jump to the next thing. Like we need to think it through as to like potentially why it does not work and how should we change course if this is not working. And that does, from a productivity standpoint, lead to what feels like procrastination when it's like, why don't we just fucking call it “thinking time”. Going Through Low Moments Makes Us More Appreciative of Our WinsSean [00:45:58]: Procrastination is not bad. Just like depression, depression is not bad. The reality is that you can't experience the highs if you don't have the lows. Show Links:The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment by Eckhart Tolle The Present: The Gift That Makes You Happier and More Successful at Work and in Life by Spencer Johnson M.D. The Cold Start Problem: How to Start and Scale Network Effectsby Andrew Chen

It's “A” students that end up being employed by “C” students. We found 8 reasons why “C” students are often more successful in life. Now that's some food for thought if you want to transform your own life or give good advice to your kids. -“C” students are more interested in a straightforward approach and unfortunately for them, academia doesn't offer that. They hack their way into the system by taking on odd jobs or learning outside of school. -While “A” students aim for perfection on their first try, “C” students aren't afraid to fail, even several times! They embrace their shortcomings and learn from them. -“C” students, who received their fair share of “Fs” in their academic life, aren't afraid to leap into the unknown. They take calculated risks to figure out what they really want in life. -“C” students tend to question everything. They're not the “Yes” group; they're more like the “Yes, but…” team. -Besides experimenting in the work force, “C” students also devote themselves to building networks that can benefit them in the long run when they enter the real world. -“C” students don't wanna put much energy into accomplishing a task, they'd rather be investing their time and effort in pursuing their dream. -“C” students are more interested in thinking about what they wanna do in life rather than being stuck in the four walls of a classroom. -“C” students decide what they want done, and “A” students are good at taking and follow these instructions.

Episode Notes One of the responsibilities of an Estate Sale Business is safeguarding the personal property you’re tasked with selling. This is the Estate Sale Business Podcast: Your Guide to a More Successful, Sustainable, and Profitable Estate Sale Management Business. This is Episode 002, entitled: “Protecting Property: Using a Video Surveillance System to Guard Against Theft, Damage, and Destruction of Estate Sale Property” In this episode, we cover one of the most effective approaches to security for the personal property you're responsible for at each estate sale. Safeguarding property before and during an estate sale can be uniquely challenging. And you can’t ignore it. Losses can be costly, both from missed sales and potential liability. Alert staff during the sale can help prevent accidents and discourage pilferage. But accidents and theft still occur. And what happens during the leadup to the sale? That time when you leave at night and there’s no one in the home to prevent loss? These days, many estate sale management firms are relying on a surveillance video system to help them keep an eye on things. Having a video surveillance system at a sale location can prove very useful. Especially so, if the location will be vacant in the days leading up to the sale while you’re preparing the property. Here are some of the issues you face: Foremost is actual criminal activity. During a sale, small items are often stolen. When the site is crowded with people, it’s not easy to monitor every location and every piece. While some theft on sale days may be crimes of opportunity, professional thieves are also responsible. Professionals often work as a team, with one person distracting your staff while another commits the theft. But it’s presale when the professionals are most likely to strike. Thieves can gain entrance to a house that’s unoccupied and easily walk away with the highest valued property. They may have already reviewed what’s available by visiting the popular estate advertising sites. And unfortunately, presale is also when employee theft is most likely. You want to trust those you hire, but many times you need extra help. If you have casual employees working to prepare a sale, it can be difficult to prevent the theft. When things get so hectic and busy, it’s impossible to be watch everything. So the number one property loss challenge you have to guard against is theft. Not far behind is breakage. Items can be broken during the sale when it’s most crowded. And it can also happen during presale prep. In both situations, every item is likely to be touched by at least one set of hands and often by many. Whether it’s a clumsy customer or a tired employee, breakage happens. The challenge is significant. Anything you can do to prevent theft and breakage will help stem losses that, ultimately, come out of your pocket. In this episode, you'll hear how a video surveillance system can help with this problem. You'll get guidance on what type of system is best and what systems to avoid.

RSS PODCAST     TRIANGLE OF SUCCESS: THE SECRET FORMULA MUSIC / INTRO What would you like to attain for the Lord in your ministry, your life, your family, or your business that you have not been able to attain in the past? What is on your wish list? What would you change about your present situation? What are your pains and unfulfilled wants?   The Psalms minister to us to help and direct, as well as to evoke worship. Psalm 37:4 says, "Delight thyself also in the Lord, and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart." The Hebrew word for "delight" is "anag" and it means to be "pliable" and also to "delight yourself." In other words ENJOY the MESSIAH. Have fun with the Lord, and don't be so tight or bound up that you can't express pleasurable emotion toward Him. If you enjoy him and have pleasurable emotion toward Him, He will grant you the petitions of your inner most being, even your thoughts and intellect. No matter how much you've been used by God in the past ... no matter how much Bible knowledge and training you have ... and no matter how much favor you have with people, there are three (3) things that can make you MORE SUCCESSFUL or break you: Friends; Thoughts; and, Time.   The Holy Bible tells us: "And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken." [Ecclesiates 4:12] Learn to ENJOY the Lord and to engage yourself positively in the three (3) areas above. FRIENDS Who are your close friends and associates? Do they contribute to your intellectual and spiritual well being? There are four (4) types of relational space: Public; Social; Personal; and, Intimate.   Public space is usually the space that's 12 feet and beyond. But it can be as close as the cashier at the grocery store. In an elevator it might be closer. Social space is usually four to 12 feet and would normally be experienced at settings like school or social activities. Eye contact and gestures help feed it. Personal space is usually 18 inches to 4 feet and normally found in friendship type relationships. Intimate space can be from touching to 18 inches and is usually experienced with someone who knows the challenging aspects of your life. There is also "naked" space which refers to "emotional" space. This is a relationship, or situation, where your level of vulnerability is very high. Today, there is a lot of teaching, and many books being written, on the subject of mentoring. However, remember that Jesus is the only perfect mentor. He is a friend that sticks closer than a brother! It's easy to be hurt in the fast paced world we live in today; but even in tribal areas where I have ministered there is hurt and hatred; sometimes decades and centuries old. In the USA there has long been a series of stories, songs, and cartoons about the Hatfields and McCoys, feuding families in the hill country. Many people think it is a fictional story made up by writers; however, it is true. In 1878 Randolph Hatfield allegedly stole a pig (swine) from the McCoy family. Eleven (11) people were killed in the 10 years between 1882 and 1892. Recently, after 125 years, the two families signed a document - a covenant before Almighty God - publicly forgiving and releasing each other.MUSIC Proverb 13:20 tells us, "He that walks with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed." I am sure you know this already, but examine your friendships. Do NOT associate closely with those who have a problem with anger, laziness, talk too much, or are loose with their morals. Also, do NOT associate with those people who keep reminding you of past sins you've already dealt with and for which you've asked forgiveness. They may even be relatives, or those who have been in close relational space as outlined above. These people are doing what God won't even let Satan do: they are going beyond the BLOOD of Christ. The whole intent of the devil using them (even though they may not be cognizant of it) is to put you into a negative spin, to bring you down from the heavenly places (Colossians Chapter Three). It is the devil's attempt to take you back into a place from which you have been forgiven, cleansed, and delivered! A reality check for the future: look at your friends. Associate with other dreamers! I would rather be alone with Jesus than to be with someone who didn't motivate and encourage me. I want to be with people who sharpen my skills and intellect ... who "fan my flames" and enlarge my vision. Three of the greatest inventors the USA has produced used to spend recreational time together in the woods and on picnics: Thomas Edison, Harvey Firestone, and Henry Ford. Associate with the right people. If you don't have anyone with which to associate, then email me your dreams and aspirations, or your problems. I will be glad to share with you. We are all working on the same team with the same goals. Send your email to: PrinceHandley@gmail.com. MUSIC THOUGHTS Whether you realize it or not, you are moving in the direction of your thoughts. Proverb 23:7 tells us "For as he thinks in his heart so is he." The Hebrew word here for "thinks" is "shaar" and is a primitive root which means "to split or open" and to act as a "gatekeeper." Don't open your mind to every thought that comes along? Satan is a liar and the father of lies [John 8:44] and he has a mind oriented strategy to kill you, to steal from you, and to destroy you [John 10:10]. The devil has two main weapons: deception and lies. Your thoughts, like dreams, can come from three (3) sources: God, yourself, or the enemy. If you believe lies from Satan or accusations from people, then you put barriers in your life. Do NOT dwell on them, but realize their source. Defamation of character and an evil report – especially after a person has repented and asked for forgiveness – is out of the pit of hell. It is one of the things that is an abomination to God. [ Proverbs 6:16-19] Do not be a part of it. If someone is attacking you in such a manner, then pray and ask God what you should do about it. He may not have you do anything about it, as the accuser will be severely dealt with by the Holy Spirit. God still has GOOD things for you. When one door closes, God always has a NEW ONE! "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope." [Jeremiah 29:11]   Let God's thoughts fill your mind with life, hope, and positivity. Dwell on creative aspects of life and ministry. "Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ." [2 Corinthians 10:5]   Refuse to retreat. Ask God to give you NEW IDEAS, new thoughts, and creative imagination to reach the world for Messiah. Sometimes I tape large blank sheets of paper 27 by 34 inches (68.6 by 86.4 cm) on my walls just to write down new ideas to reach nations and people for Messiah Yeshua. I have found that either just after, or during, a major attack from the enemy, the Lord usually blesses me with dynamic ideas for reaching mass multitudes with the Good News of Messiah. So when negative thoughts or attacks come my way, they are a "sign" that the enemy is scared, trying to discourage me and get me on a negative bent. The enemy, being a spirit being, probably can recognize an anointing building up – ideas that will be formulated in my mind by the Holy Spirit – which will do great damage to the kingdom of darkness. Therefore, I rejoice for the glory of God that will soon be manifest to people in the tribes and families of the world! How great is our God?! I encourage you to do the same; never back up ... stand still and listen to God's directions ... then advance ... and SEE the salvation of the Lord. MUSIC When the children of Israel were trapped by the Red Sea with Pharaoh and 600 chosen chariots of war hot on their heels, Moses said to them: "Do not be afraid. STAND STILL, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever. The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace. And the Lord said to Moses, 'Why do you cry to me? Tell the children of Israel to GO FORWARD'." [Exodus 14:13-15]   Hundreds of years later, Jahaziel prophesied to the children of Israel with similar instructions from the Lord: "You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, STAND STILL and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem! Do not fear or be dismayed: tomorrow GO OUT AGAINST THEM, for the Lord is with you." [2 Chronicles 20:16-17]   TIME Previously I discussed the importance of time. We learned that we need the Holy Spirit to anoint our time. Our lives are made up of basic segways of days, in between which we sleep and obtain rest from the Lord. And, every seventh day is ordained from the Lord to bless us as a day of rest. [Isaiah 58] During our waking hours we need to spend quality time talking to the Holy Spirit. The Bible depicts the Spirit as a dove. In Israel the dove was the turtle dove: a beautiful symbol of love, peace, gentleness, and innocence. "And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon Him (Jesus)." [ John 1:32]   To understand the Holy Spirit more, we should learn what a turtle dove is like.  Turtle doves never fight. Pigeons do. Turtle doves don't like noise. Pigeons do. Turtle doves like to be alone. Pigeons like crowds. Turtle doves are not territorial. Pigeons "bully" each other. Turtle doves can't be trained or domesticated. Pigeons can be. Turtle doves mate for life. Pigeons often have multiple partners.   Now if you want to be close to the Holy Spirit, to have wonderful communion with Him, observe His ways. Then, prepare a nesting place in your heart for the Holy Spirit! Spend quality time with Him. The more you honor Him, the more He will honor you! The Holy Spirit is God's agent on earth to supply the resurrection power of Christ! Learn to ENJOY the Lord so He can give you the desires of your heart. Engage yourself positively and wisely with: Your friends; Your thoughts; and, Your time of fellowship with the Holy Spirit.   I pray this teaching will help you. Now you know the formula: The Triangle of Success. Your friend, Prince Handley Baruch haba b'Shem Adonai.
