You are naturally inclined to seek stability and familiarity, so when change disrupts this equilibrium, it can generate stress and discomfort. In this episode, we uncover 4 common factors that tend to shake people when it comes to change. You'll get actionable tips and insight on how to tune in and activate your calm confidence in any chaos. You will come to see how change is not the enemy; it's the heartbeat of growth. Let's go! Episode Quotes: "Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle." Napoleon Hill "You don't struggle your way to joy; you joy your way to joy." Abraham Hicks "I never lose; I either win or I learn." Nelson Mandela "Focus on opportunities and how you want to feel, versus what's not working and why it's wrong." Kc Rossi

So, this is an episode I've been wanting to share for such a long time. Like seriously probably a solid year when I heard about this concept for interpersonal connections and growth that clicked in such a profound way for me when I was able to tie it back to places in time of my own creative journey.Alright, so what is this Plus, Minus, Equals concept and why does it matter? Put simply, a key way to ensure you're growing in your career (or really ANY area of your life you could apply this principle to) is deliberately creating connections with people way ABOVE your level, way BELOW your level, and RIGHT AROUND your level of (insert skill or proficiency here). You might hear all that and think, “Well, duh? Of course you want to have a variety of folks in your circle”. Well, obviously yes, but think RIGHT NOW to your closest connections in a particular space (say your department, one of your hobbies/passions outside the office, or even just close friends). And tell me honestly how many of those circles truly contain a variety of skill levels? Chances are pretty slim that's a damn near homogenous group. If you're one of the many photographers listening to this episode, for example,  do you really have any newbies or photo students in your close contacts? Or vice versa, how many world-class, awarded photographers could you honestly say is a connection you could call upon? If you have trouble answering either of those questions, trust me, you are so far from the only one. As we settle into our careers (creative disciplines, media or otherwise) we aggressively run the risk of our networks and connections becoming calcified into “people like me” who “think and do things like I think and do” (The brilliant marketing mind Seth Godin has a word for that – CULTURE)Okay, I say that a bit tongue in cheek, but it's true. The farther along in our career and and personal lives we get, we fall into ruts of what we do and who we spend time with the most (not all in a bad way, but far more often and even a little insidiously, in a mindless, unintentional way).So, let's break down the three elements of the Plus, Minus, Equal philosophy of connections and how it can make such a difference in your own growth and development.PLUS:While the word gets bandied about way too damn much for anyone's liking and has nearly lost the gravity and importance that it used to have, PLUS in this model of connection and growth is really referring to the concept of Mentorship – or at the very least, learning from individuals in your field who have objectively created and achieved more than where you're currently at (no shade here, it's just a fact that you're always going to be outpaced and outachieved by plenty of people. Just the same way you'll outpace and out achieve plenty of folks in turn, but more on that later).In my mind, the key benefit of connecting and communicating with folks above your weightclass as it were in your field or in the particular skill you're looking to grow in is this: hard learned lessons minus the struggle. As the old saying goes : “Only a fool learns from their own mistakes. A wise man learns from the mistakes of others”.Now there's nothing quite like the teacher that is failure/struggle/pain/etc., but connection with an advanced figure in your field is a damn close second. And more often than not, can help you illuminate the “unknown unknowns” and pitfalls one couldn't possibly see coming. The trite analogy would be the idea of summiting Mount Everest. Instead of learning lessons yourself (cough, frostbite, cough), wouldn't you rather start on a solid foundation of learning from those who had come before in place of reinventing the wheel so to speak. Realistically however, each of these kinds of connection do come with a handful of pitfalls and the PLUS category of individuals can be one of the most sneakily detrimental to growth if you're not careful.Put simply, you're going to get rejected, shot down, and ignored by folks farther along in career or skill level. A LOT. And there's nothing inherently wrong with that (they're leading busy, accomplished lives and most won't have the time to connect on a cold email/phonecall with a junior person they may never have met). On top of that, if you as the reacher-outer don't approach it in the right way, you're going to set off all kinds of alarms in the mind and inbox of the PLUS you're trying to connect with – Hot take, if you use the word “mentor” or “mentorship” explicitly or throw out a phrase like “pick your brain”, you're going to have a BAD TIME. Second, another pitfall of connecting with PLUS folks is objectivity. And what I mean by objectivity is this – The tendency in all sorts of industries or skills is to view the folks at the proverbial “mountaintop” as larger than life. As such, the real thing to avoid is any and all kinds of HERO WORSHIP. You can see through that kind of insincerity a mile away. If the kind of person you're reaching out to needs you to butter them up to build a rapport and to open the door to learn from them, they are NOT the kind of person you want to learn and grow from. We're all multifaceted beings and to distill them down to the pinnacle of their career or skill is not only super reductive to them as an individual, but once you lose that objectivity, how are you going to be able to think critically about the lessons and insights you might get? So where do you go from there with the PLUS folks on your connection quest? Make a list of 20 people in your industry or skill that you would want to connect with and, for each, nail down EXACTLY what the scope of that learning would be – specific and relevant enough that they'll be able to understand why you reached out to them in particular. Better yet, do you have any mutual connections who might be able to reach out and make a no-pressure introduction? From there, if you're fortunate enough for one or two folks to respond, you can try to build that relationship OVER TIME. (and just as a cheeky aside, there's a really big part of the photo forward podcast that grew out of a need for more PLUS folks in my circles through interviewing brilliant visual creators, through the magic of technology, all around the globe that I may never have the chance to meet in person)MINUS:Alright, now that we've cleared out the hero worship and fawning over the greats, let's move on to what I think is arguably the most important group to build connections with – the MINUS folks. Like I mentioned on the PLUS group, there's nothing inherently negative or problematic with talking about a MINUS population who aren't as skilled or far along as you. Just facts. So why would you want to grow connections with those who are objectively less skilled than you? In my mind, the true benefit of building these kinds of cross-skilled relationships is both a little counterintuitive, but super obvious when you spell it out. TEACHING (or as it's been coined referring to teaching folks only slightly behind where you are “The Protege effect”. One of the most brilliantly simple and effective quotes that typifies this is the old (possibly) Albert Einstein adage “If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.” What makes a teacher a teacher is their ability to understand complex topics in such detail and with such alacrity that they can translate that domain-specific knowledge into lectures with students who know relatively far less. And not bore them to tears in the process.Once you yourself cease to be in the group of complete newbies on a topic or in a career field, you really do owe it to the world to give back to the collective knowledge and growth of the “next generation” in your area. I wouldn't be anywhere close to the achievements I've gotten without learning from those above me, so to actively neglect that to those less far along than you is hard to describe as anything less than unwise (if you're being generous) or (let's call a fucking spade a spade) selfish and gatekeeping. So what could possibly go wrong with getting a deep understanding of your skills and teaching the up-and-comers? Well, in my mind, there's really only one potential downside to over-indexing in the MINUS group of folks for connection and growth. It's definitely possible to extend yourself too far in this direction and end up spending a disproportionate amount of time being the PLUS for new folks in your field that you end up not keeping pace with the EQUALS or learning your own lessons. If you're constantly teaching, your're probably not spending enough time building your own experience and run the risk of stagnating a bit in your own endeavors.Now when we get to action steps, this can be a bit trickier because so many of these interactions require a bit more serendipity and responding to MINUS folks that reach out to you personally. But it doesn't have to be quite so passive! How you might ask can you manifest these connections into existence? This is where the beauty of Web 2.0 comes into play. If you have a lesson to share, there's pretty much an unlimited number of ways to get that out into the world through blogs, LinkedIn posts or *wink wink* just start a podcast and put out episodes like this. And more than anything, don't feel like you have to be a know it all to know enough to teach – You don't have to have read the entire book, you just need to be a chapter ahead of the students.EQUALS:Last but certainly not least we're left with the final group in this connection and growth concept – the one we always think of first when you think of networking and skillbuilding your EQUALS. While it's kind of a duhh section to include in the episode (“Yeah Ben, real fuggin insightful to suggest that you should CONNECT with people who are CLOSE in skill level to you. Eye Roll.”). But stay with me here. I think there's gotta be particular reasons WHY you're collaborating with and with WHOM you're working with to make these EQUALS connections actually valuable. From my experience over the last decade as a photographer and cinematographer, I think when it comes down to it, there are three big factors that transform a good EQUALS connection to a great one – Aligned Values, Productive Collaboration, and Candid Communication (oddly enough, as I write this out it's really hard not to super impose these onto what it takes to make a healthy and successful romantic relationship or partnership. *accidental mind blown*Now, your EQUALS connections don't have to have all three of these characteristics or even excel in a single one of these (there are tons of people and connections that are extremely valuable without needing to “optimize” your growth and development to death and prune out people that don't hit these themes). But I've found that a mindful approach to who you're close with and defining why you're close with them (think Napoleon Hill: “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with”). Speaking specifically in the field of photography/visual media, finding people with Aligned Values ensures you've got a shared language for your work and similar motivations and goals that you're reaching towards. EQUALS folks that you can actually have Productive Collaboration with ensures that you can sustain working together over days/weeks/and months together and not just falling into the trap of the creative jerk-off that can be talking about projects and bouncing ideas off of each other and not actually MAKING ANYTHING and taking it to the next level of growth. And deeply connected to that, if you can't really, and I do mean REALLY, honestly share your input, ideas, and world with an EQUALS connection, you don't actually have one. If you feel like you can only be real with them if it's what they want to hear or you're only giving them positive feedback on their work, change that shit quickly. You shouldn't feel like you need to cut them out of your life entirely, but there does need to be a “come to jesus moment” where you get real with each other and come up with a plan to fix that. (Or maybe you notice that you're the one who's only getting positive feedback and praise from your EQUALS and YOU need to have your own wake-up call and reflect on why that is). As the great executive coach Jerry Colonna breaks it down: “How am I complicit in the creation of the conditions in my life, that I claim to not want.”Again this is sort of a category I don't need to beat a dead horse on when it comes to identifying practical next steps for you the listener to grow your EQUALS group. Honestly, like I mentioned before, it's almost more about building (and then pruning) your existing connections to deliver the desired outcomes, creative collaboration, growth and problem-solving you want. So with all of the demands on your time in our busy world, when you think about creating the connections and relationships to grow, just remember: Find your PLUSSES, Teach your MINUSES and collaborate with your EQUALS.

“We all need help. Don't go it alone.” – Brian Buffini Over the past year, people everywhere have been asked to go it alone, whether through stay-at-home orders, self-isolating or social distancing.

Elections, a tropical storm, kitesurfing and a major sale have kept me busy. What does that have to do with Napoleon Hill? You’ll find out in this episode!

Failure is something that clouds our lives, and the lives of our children. The struggle is real. Dealing with failure is a life skill. We can choose to shelter our children as the infamous helicopter, drone, or law-mower parent. But where will that leave our children? Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT If we are not careful, raising up children who are more fearful of failure increases the inability to recover from adversity. Life is all about adversity. Ask anyone who has succeeded. They will tell you they have had more failures, more "no's" than they care to think about. But they wouldn't give any of that up, because it brought them to where they are today. Creating a field of success only limits our children. They don't know how to respond to failure or when they don't get what they want. All they do is make a fuss, take note of what they did right, and leave the failures to pile up behind them. Eventually, the mountains of failures begin to anchor them to what they never imagined (anxiety, low self-esteem, thoughts of suicide, depression, self-injury). Stuff we don't want our children to think about or experience. You as their parent, you want to protect them. That makes total sense. But protecting them from failure only holds them back. They have to learn how to cope with failure. The struggle is real. However, fields of failure lead to greatness. "Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle." ~ Napoleon Hill You can choose to raise your children sheltered and confined to only what they think they will succeed at, but that will ultimately lend itself to greater failure longterm. So overcome failure with a struggle drill. The K.I.S.S. ~ Overcome failure with your Struggle Drill! Don't settle for mediocrity. Success comes with many failures and an overcomer spirit, a resiliency that leads to greatness. Overcome failure with your struggle drill. STOP & BREATHE Literally stop and take some deep breaths to settle your mind, body, and spirit. Your failure does not have to overcome you. Take a time-out! This gives you space to not overreact. ANALYZE THE SITUATION Take a moment to assess the situation at hand. What was done right? What was done wrong? Failure is part of the process. How can you improve? RESPOND & REDEFINE Formulate your thoughts and actions on what's next to accomplish your goal. Speak your intention. This way you flush out the "reactions" and utilize your goals. Just because you don't get something the first, second, or third time, doesn't mean you will not accomplish what you're after. Dealing with failure is a life skill. CHALLENGE: What can you do to help your child overcome failure? "The struggle is real. Dealing with failure is a life skill. Teach it early.

I saw two things to share with you to start your week off in a good direction. First it was a quote from Napoleon Hill - "You are what you think about, so be very careful to keep your thoughts positive and on your goal." In other words - guard the 6 inches or so that is between your ears!! It's the most valuable space you own! Watch what you allow into your own mind. The second thing was from a former student of mine who put out a post about how negative and nasty the world seems to be and if she had her way, she'd take off for 3 years or so to just get away from all of the hate, anger, negativity, etc. I've thought that many times myself, but I know that would not be possible.... but you know what is possible? Work at not letting that stuff in your head and your heart. Easy, probably not. But remember, great things usually are not easy, but they are worth it. So as you start this week off - remember, guard the space between your years. Work on it a little bit each day. Read more good stuff (find Jon Gordon's book "The Garden") and other good books. Find great things to listen to - thanks by the way for listening to this podcast. Find great people to surround yourself with. Remember, you need to be one of those to attract them in the first place. So be that awesome person for others. Thanks for listening.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of The Business of Dance Podcast and our final episode of our Master Your Money Mindset in May series. If you haven't been following our May series, I highly suggest you check out the previous 3 episodes as it will help pave your way into today’s topic which is all about meeting your money making goals this year from planning and taking practical steps to reach your goals!   In this episode, I am going to ask a lot of questions to assist with self-reflection, planning, growth & implementation. If you are on the go and would like a copy of the questions to answer (as well as some helpful additional book & podcast resources), grab a copy of our free download at claireosheacoaching.com/moneygoals   1.Visualise What do you want your studio or business to look like in the future? Picture yourself in a year from now Continue to move forward to 3 years from now What does your ideal day look like? Visualise your working space, what it involves and what you are doing. In what ways do you want to grow or scale your business? What is your dream annual income look like for your business? How do you want to feel when you have reached your goals? To start planning you first need to know what it is you exactly what from your business and the direction you are wanting to head and to visualise it. Create a list, vision board or simply meditate and after takes notes on what you saw. Use your mindset techniques you have learnt from this series and get clear on your goals. Be specific and don’t fear how “big” it may be. 2.Plan Devise an action plan. One thing I teach in my programs when planning an event or tackling a task is to start at the end and work backwards. This helps you to map out everything that needs to be completed from the end to the beginning, ensuring don’t miss any important steps. Now that you are more clear about what you want from visualisation you can then start map out exactly what needs to be done in order to accomplish your goals. Maybe you want to grow and scale your studio, or add on more programs to generate more income. This is where you can map out the direction you are wanting to go, and make a plan to market and promote these new projects. Write it down, discuss with your team and create a plan in place with milestone goals along the way to know you are on track, as well as an end or “due date”   3.Implement Once your plan is in place it is time to put the action steps in. You can write down all the tasks that need to be accomplished with your due dates and implement those in your daily/weekly schedule. Ensure you are constantly working to move your big plans and goals forward. Want to have 200 students? 500? 1000? Start at your end goal and make targets to get to that point. Everything is doable! Depending if you have a team or not, you can also delegate or outsource tasks to others, giving you more free time to manage these new goals/projects Visualisation and mindset are so important, but it is when you start to take action with this new mindset that things really start to change, grow and blossom.   4.Accountability for your goals Having others keep you accountable when taking on new goals and projects can really help you stay motivated and on track. Could be a partner, friend, family member or business coach This can even be within your business in a team setting where you write down goals for that week in your meeting and each person checks off what has been done as they go, and at the end of the week, you can see what got done, what didn’t and why. This will give you that extra push to stay on track and follow through with what you set out to do   5. Get inspired by others Of course, I hope that this series was helpful to you, but it is also good to have many resources to help to stay on track and to inspire you along your journey. There are so many books and other podcasts out there it can be confusing where to start, but I will name a few for you. It is great to hear others stories and journeys, knowing your not the only one who has bigger dreams for themselves and their business. Knowing others are going through or went through the same and were successful can keep you going while staying in line with your goals.   Books: You were born rich by Bob Proctor Money, a love story by Kate Northrup Think and grow rich by Napoleon Hill You are a Badass at Making Money: by Jen Sincero   Podcasts: Entrepreneur On Fire The Lucky Bitch Podcast Words and Money Podcast Manifestation Babe   Again, if you have been on the go and didn’t have a chance to answer all the questions or would like some more time to reflect.

Greg W. Anderson did not follow a conventional path into his career. After trying his hand at several different jobs early in his adult life, he decided that the technology space was for him. He rapidly built a very successful software company and became known nationally as "the architect." Having launched a successful tech company, Greg used that experience -- and a lot of the income it generated -- to develop ways to help others find success in their lives. A renowned coach, mentor and author, Greg wrote the best selling book “The Selfish Divorce” and has been featured extensively in the media. Currently, he leads and curates the successful ‘MindHacking” movement that assists individuals to address the psychology of happenings and application in the four key areas of life familiar to Rules of Success listeners. We discuss with Greg his inspiring story and how his approach to a life, business and contribution makes a difference for those he works with. Tidbits from the show: 1. He is a HUGE advocate of continuity as a business model. His successes seem to alway point back to recurring billing. 2. Even if you aren’t the face of an organization, if you create great content you’ll always have a place. 3. His program LIfe Hacking / Mind Hacking is meant for all people; not just those in a position to pay big money for help. 4. The law of least action : the shortest distance to achieve our goal. What’s the least amount of time to get what I want? 5. Change is always simple. It’s not always easy. 6. There are many imprints from our childhood that can effect us subconsciously before we learn to rewrite the neural pathway. 7. The Anthony Robbins Infomercials are a foundational staple for most successful entrepreneurs. 8, Try reading for inspired thoughts, not to finish the book. 9. Writing something down stamps the thought in ink. 10. Getting clear on what you really want is a foundational requirement for any lasting success. 11. Want to grow your influence? It’s consistency.

George Wohar is an inspirational dude. He struggled for years trying to 'get it right' when it came to success and wasted a lot of time and money chasing the answers. Until, one day, it finally hit him that getting his mind right was a must before anything else! Since then, George has been dedicated to mastering his own mind and sharing what he learns with others to become known as the 'Millennial Mindset Mentor'. He's gone from dropping out of college and struggling with life, to speaking on stage with the likes of Tai Lopez and Nick Unsworth. With his dedication to his own mindset allowing him to do this all by the age of 21. So I thought it would be pretty damn cool to get George on the podcast.
