Real Life Runners I Tying Running and Health into a Family-Centered Life
Have you ever found yourself wondering if you're doing enough?Should you be tracking your sleep more closely? Monitoring your glucose? Taking more supplements? Investing in another recovery tool? Finding one more way to optimize your health and performance?In today's world, it's easy to feel like there is always another metric to improve, another score to chase, and another strategy promising better results.In this episode, Kevin and I take a closer look at what happens when the pursuit of optimization starts working against us.We explore the rise of the "optimizer" identity and how many runners and health-conscious individuals are being pulled into a culture that encourages constant measurement, analysis, and self-improvement. While data can absolutely be helpful, we discuss what happens when metrics become the goal instead of a tool.We dive into how wearables, sleep scores, recovery scores, continuous glucose monitors, and other tracking technologies can sometimes create more anxiety than awareness. We also unpack concepts like orthorexia and orthosomnia—conditions where the pursuit of healthy eating or perfect sleep can actually become unhealthy.From there, we shift into one of the most talked-about sporting events of the year: the inaugural Enhanced Games in Las Vegas.Marketed as a revolutionary athletic competition where performance-enhancing drugs were permitted, the Enhanced Games generated headlines, controversy, and millions of dollars in investment. But beneath the flashy marketing and bold promises lies a much bigger story about optimization culture, shortcuts, and the business of selling peak performance.We break down what actually happened, why many of the promised outcomes failed to materialize, and what the event reveals about our modern obsession with finding the fastest path to better results.Throughout the conversation, we keep coming back to a simple truth:The basics still work.The runners who make the greatest long-term progress aren't usually the ones chasing every new biohack. They're the ones consistently sleeping well, fueling appropriately, training progressively, building strength, managing stress, and recovering intentionally.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by all the health advice, gadgets, supplements, and performance metrics competing for your attention, this episode offers a refreshing reminder that you don't need to optimize everything to become a healthier, stronger runner.04:45 When Metrics Mislead06:25 Orthorexia and Clean Eating09:02 Orthosomnia and Sleep Anxiety10:56 Fragility vs Resilience12:52 Health Obsession Identity15:05 Gamifying Glucose Tracking18:40 Optimization Industry Exposed23:47 Supplements vs Foundations26:35 Enhanced Games Explained31:31 Gladiators and Reality Check33:08 Clean Athletes Win33:59 Enhanced Games Recap34:19 Super Suit World Record35:29 Weightlifting Hype Fizzles35:47 Wellness Complex Exposed38:39 Why Athletes Underperformed43:17 Foundation Beats Shortcuts46:06 Recovery Tools vs Basics49:15 Sleep Over Supplements50:24 Metrics Without Anxiety51:41 Marketing Tricks and Pink Tax55:07 Mental Strength MatterGain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.

Index drauf und fertig. Klingt nach einem soliden Plan, oder? Leider nur so lange, bis die Daten wachsen, der Workload kippt oder der Optimizer plötzlich andere Entscheidungen trifft. Dann wird aus dem vermeintlichen Performance-Booster schnell ein Bremsklotz. Genau hier steigen wir in dieser Episode ein und schauen uns an, warum Indexstrukturen in Datenbanken viel mehr sind als ein technischer Quick Fix.Wir sprechen darüber, was ein Index eigentlich ist, wie Datenstruktur, Algorithmus, Hardware und Workload zusammenhängen und warum Begriffe wie Selektivität, Kardinalität, Full Table Scan, Write Amplification und Cache-Lokalität in der Praxis entscheidend sind. Außerdem schauen wir auf typische Datenbank-Themen wie Primary Key, B-Tree, Binary Search, Covering Index, Optimizer, Slow Query Log und Explain Statements. Dabei wird auch klar, warum ein Index manchmal hilft, manchmal ignoriert wird und manchmal sogar langsamer ist als gar kein Index.Wenn du mit PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB oder ganz allgemein mit Datenbank-Performance arbeitest, bekommst du hier ein solides Fundament und einige praktische Denkanstöße für deinen Alltag als Softwareentwickler:in. Und ja, wir sprechen auch über Invisible Indexes in MySQL. Ein Feature, das fast wie ein Zaubertrick klingt, aber beim Testen und beim sicheren Aufräumen von Legacy-Systemen überraschend praktisch sein kann. Viel Spaß beim Hören und vielleicht beim anschließenden Blick auf dein Datenbankschema.Unsere aktuellen Werbepartner findest du auf https://engineeringkiosk.dev/partnersDas schnelle Feedback zur Episode:

This week, Jamal and Chris dive into a packed episode discussing whether Wayfinders are running out of quality POIs, and how location plays a major role—dense cities may be tapped out while growing suburbs still offer opportunity. Jamal shares a massive run of 19 approvals (17 live in-game) in under a week, sparking a debate on “stretching criteria” and the future of nominations. The conversation shifts to S2 cell strategy, where both agree it's not cheating—unless you're manipulating pin placement outside the rules. They break down the difference between smart optimization and abuse, and Jamal introduces his “Confessions of a Cell Optimizer” segment, explaining how he maximized a local area into a fully optimized cluster. They also explore the idea of “remove and replace” as areas redevelop, debating whether outdated Wayspots should be removed immediately or left until replacements are ready. In lighter moments, the episode features a “One's Gotta Go” gaming debate (PS5 vs PC vs Switch vs Mobile, with Xbox catching strays), standout Wayspots of the Week featuring incredible murals, and a clear Coal of the Week example highlighting what not to nominate (a PRP tree). As always, the episode wraps with community shoutouts, patron love, and the reminder: “What's a few meters between friends?” Stick around for: ✅ Spatial / Scopely News ✅ One's Gotta Go - Gaming Edition ✅ Wayspots / Coal of the Week ✅ Dad Jokes (of course!)

In this episode, host Gerald J. Leonard pulls back the curtain on his personal journey into the world of Artificial Intelligence and accelerated learning. What began as a physical constraint, losing the ability to walk before a TEDx talk, became a catalyst for discovering the neuroscience of learning and the superpower of accelerated adaptation. Gerald shares how he applied principles of music, meditation, and transformational learning techniques to not only recover but to thrive, eventually tackling four simultaneous Ivy League courses in AI. From this intense period of study and experimentation, the Jet Prompt Optimizer was born, a custom tool designed to solve the universal problem of communicating effectively with Large Language Models (LLMs). This conversation is a deep dive into how curiosity and systematic learning can lead to innovation. Gerald explores the direct link between mastering new skills, building intelligent systems, and reclaiming personal time and freedom. He reveals how the right tools can transform chaos into calm, automate heavy lifting, and allow us to focus on what makes us uniquely human, creativity and connection.

Leonard [06:05] "I built Six Sigma and evaluation frameworks into the prompts so AI gives you what you actually want." – Gerald J.

In this episode Dr. K explains why we often use productivity as a way to hide from our real problems and how to find the root cause of mental health struggles rather than just treating symptoms. He also covers why people with ADHD dive too deep into hobbies and the complicated truth about sharing feelings with a partner. Key Topics: The Productivity Trap: Why "optimizing" your life is often just a way to avoid solving major personal crises, like a failing marriage or career unhappiness. Fixing the "Root Directory": How treating core issues like rumination or internalizing can fix multiple mental health diagnoses at the same time.• ADHD and New Identities: Why people with ADHD don't just "try" hobbies but adopt them as entirely new personalities to find a life that finally "fits". The Truth About Sharing Feelings: Why sharing negative emotions can sometimes make a relationship worse, especially for those with social anxiety. Integrated Partners: Using Jungian archetypes to understand why hyper-polarized gender roles on social media often lead to emotionally unsafe relationships. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dr. James Hewitt spent years teaching Fortune 500 companies and Formula One teams how to optimize performance—while ignoring his own advice. Then he found a lump in the shower. In this fascinating conversation, James shares how a late-30s cancer diagnosis forced him to confront a hard truth: he wasn't superhuman. We dive deep into the science of human performance, from why heart rate variability matters more than sleep tracking to how your mindset about stress can fundamentally alter your physiology. You'll discover why the "monk mode" mentality is flawed, how self-compassion beats perfectionism, why vacation research says 3-4 days works better than two weeks, and the 3P model that explains why high performers struggle to celebrate wins. Plus: why James speaks out loud in hotel rooms, his $15,000 watch collection paired with socks full of holes, and the Mount Rushmore of performance books you need to read.Dr. Hewitt's Website: https://drjameshewitt.comYou can pre-order my NEWEST book, Procrastination Proof, right now!In This Episode:Grab your very own Soundtracks: The Conversations Card DeckMake sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!You can grab a copy of my book All It Takes Is a Goal from your favorite bookstore or at my website!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!

José Antonio Esteban, CEO de IronIA Fintech, nos aconseja cómo realizar una cartera con fondos de inversión y nos cuenta más detalles sobre cómo funciona el evento IronIA Explica. “En IronIA Explica explicamos nuestras novedades, en un tono poco formal, todo el mundo puede preguntar”, asegura el invitado. ¿Qué novedades va a presentar en este evento? El experto nos cuenta que “sacan su primera versión de la App, para IOS y Android y la ficha de la cartera, que es donde el cliente va a poder ver todos los análisis, para que entienda mucho más la cartera y en consecuencia te puedan llevar a ese Optimizer, que lo que te va a permitir es optimizarla”. El CEO de IronIA Fintech, nos explica cúal es tipo de cliente con el que trabaja la empresa. “Nuestra clientela está a un 50% de género, algo poco usual en el sector”, asegura el invitado. El entrevistado añade que el porcentaje “varía dependiendo de la semana pero que no se suele mover de esa mitad y mitad”. ¿Cuál es el rango de edad de esta clientela? El experto señala que “tiene entre 30 y 45 años pero tienen un sector muy focalizado en gente de más de 70 años, algo que choca al principio ya que son una plataforma totalmente online” ¿Cuál es la inversión mínima que hacen los clientes? ¿Cómo varían estos su cartera de inversión? “Nuestro cliente tiene una cartera de una mediana de 30.000 euros y tenemos tres tipos básicos de clientes: los invierto y me olvido, los que mueven bastante su cartera y los que mueven sus inversiones dependiendo de los movimientos del mercado”, afirma José Antonio Esteban. ¿A qué grupo les va mejor sus inversiones? El CEO de IronIA Fintech nos confiesa que estos clientes siguen “una distribución normal”.
José Antonio Esteban, Ceo de IronIA Fintech, nos habla de las fichas de fondo, Mercado y Optimizer, que es su RobotAdvisor personal y la diferencia entre un RobotAdvisor y un Agente de IA de inversión. “Somos RobotAdvisor, que tenemos un RobotAdvisor y que y teníamos un agente de inversión”, asegura el invitado. Nos cuenta que “los agentes IA son capaces de ver el entorno, reaccionar a él y hacer acciones concretas sobre ese entorno”. También añade que “en el caso de la inversión, los RobotAdvisor fueron la primera versión o la tercera generación de los agentes IA”. La principal diferencia que hay entre los dos, según él, es que “el RobotAdvisor toma decisiones por tí mientras que lo que hacen los agentes IA es tomar acciones”. ¿Cuáles son los pros y las contras de estas dos formas de encarar una inversión? El Ceo de IronIA Fintech afirma que “el agente IA es mucho más personalizado mientras que el Robot Advisor suelen ser algoritmos fijos, que te dan una cartera mientras que la adaptación de esa cartera te la da ese agente IA”. “Somos o un RobotAdvisor personalizado o un agente IA flexible”, asegura el entrevistado. Asegura que a todo esto “le han llamado IronIA Optimizer”, porque lo que te permite es “una optimización de tu cartera basándote en tus gustos, lo que te permite personalizar esta cartera y te propone el criterio que necesites en cada momento. ¿Qué coste tiene el servicio de IronIA Optimizer? José Antonio Esteban asegura que “a día de hoy no cuesta nada”. Afirma que “cuando lanzan un producto les gusta que su comunidad sea los primeros que se benefician y la forma en que se benefician es tenerlo meses para que entiendan cómo funcionan”. Esto es importante ya que “es difícil que entiendas el valor de algo si no lo has probado”

José Antonio Esteban, CEO de IronIA Fintech, explica cómo esta empresa comienza la nueva temporada después de un verano, en el que no han dejado de trabajar para obtener la mayor rentabilidad a sus clientes. El invitado habla sobre un nuevo producto que ha lanzado IronIA Fintech para optimizar nuestras carteras, el Optimizer. A diferencia de los métodos de análisis anteriores, basados en la metodología cuántica, según cuenta José Antonio Esteban, “hemos ido más allá, el Optimiezer te permite analizar tu cartera y según el criterio que tú quieras, y teniendo en cuenta períodos de tiempo que tú definas, podrás ver cuáles serían los fondos que mejor se han comportado en esas condiciones”. Para poder acceder a este producto, debes ser cliente de IronIA Fintech, ya que necesita analizar tu cartera con la compañía, sin embargo, José Antonio Esteban avanza que “a lo largo del año implementaremos análisis a carteras externas”

We are getting closer to the end of season 1 of the Smart Cleaning School Podcast. We are in the middle of a series on the 3 S's, which stands for Stay, Scale, or Sell and represent FREEDOM for the solo cleaner. In the last episode, I shared a clip from a Solo Elite Membership Call from late 2024 focusing on creating margin.Margin is vital. We need margin to make more choices. We need more choices to have more balance and freedom. This episode shares another clip from Solo Elite. This one shows you what to do once you've created margin. You optimize!Optimizing gives you the balance you want. There are 3 steps to optimizing.Get Faster at Cleaning - As you implement the Optimizer Tools of the ISO Model, you get faster at each house or office. This allows you clean more in less time.Charge More Over Time - As you clean longer and develop your systems, trust, and expertise, you will increase the perceived value of your “product”. Charge more over time.Increase Profitability of the Business - You especially need to know your numbers for this one. Print out your Profit & Loss (P&L) and study it. Solo cleaners range in profitability from 60-95%. Optimizers are over 85%. In the next episode, I'll pull it all together with the big picture roadmap from an overwhelmed solo to an optimized one.

This 2-part podcast was inspired by a Solo Cleaning School Elite member, Dave Reeks. Dave started implementing the ISO Model in early 2022, operating The Finest Clean in South Wales, Australia. I am so proud of his diligence and commitment. Dave has grown from an Initializer to the Stabilizer phase of the ISO Model in 6 months. I recently did an Optimizer's Workshop with him to help him hit his next goal. He is a male solo cleaner like I was and growing quickly with almost 20 house cleaning customers in a short time. Dave recognized the need to keep his body operating at peak performance and wondered if I had any tips for other solo cleaners. Thank you Dave for this question! Yes! I do. I was a solo cleaner from age 28 to 44. There have been seasons of physical domination when I could stay up all night and clean and clean and clean. I have also struggled with fatigue, injury, and chronic disease. Regardless of the season, I had no choice but to keep going... and I did. In this initial episode, we will deconstruct the habits of multiple peak performers from professional sports to learn from them. Then in the second episode, I also will share several keys to solo longevity that I have learned along the way from my triumphs and struggles. I believe this will help all cleaning companies as we all have people cleaning, whether it is us or a team we've hired.Disclaimer: I am not a medical doctor. I am sharing what I've personally done for cleaning longevity. See your doctor before making any major changes to your routine. Baseline your level of health now and set goals on where you'd like to go. Use this podcast as a guide.Let's start with an analogy that takes me down vehicle memory lane. The joke in high school was that Ford stood for "fix or repair daily" and "fails on race day". My friends with Hondas boasted on their longevity and reliability. Hondas were the gold standard. My cars from age 16 to now have been in this order: Honda, Ford, Ford, Mitsubishi, Honda, Honda, Honda, Honda, Ford, Honda, Ford. Isn't that funny. I've owned 6 Hondas and 4 Fords. I won't go over every detail on our cars as that is probably boring. I will just say this. All of my cars have been great. I have so many memories from each. But I do generally agree after owning 4 Fords and 8 Hondas (my wife owned 2 Honda Odysseys) that the Hondas are way more reliable and spend less time in the shop. Sure there were some duds. We had an Odyssey that lasted 2 years and needed a new engine at 150,000 miles. We own a Ford Fiesta with 100,000 miles and a Honda Pilot with 140,000 miles and both are running great. But there is not doubt that our Hondas have been cheaper to operate and lasted a lot longer as 5 of the 8 were over 200,000 miles when we got rid of them.Read the rest of this article at the Smart Cleaning School website

This isn't trueAdrenal insufficiency syndrome is real, but it's not related to exercise or coffee. This is a medical condition that's different from the normal stress-response system of your body3 categories of brain areas communicate with the adrenals to release adrenaline:* Cognitive areas: Involved in thinking and decision-making* Affective areas: Linked to emotions and how you perceive and react to the environment* Motor areas: Control your body movement. These areas in the cerebral cortex send signals to the spinal cord, which then triggers the release of acetylcholine to activate the adrenal medulla The Technological Republic – Palantir CEO Alex Karp & Stanley Druckenmiller In Conversation Talented people want to be around other talented people: If you are starting a team that already consists of immensely talented people, then other A-players will want to join; this dynamic positively compounds with time and becomes reflexiveThe type of person you want to hire: A truth-seeking, justice-seeking, fairness fanatic, who is justifiably snobby about their intellect (but not because of where they went to school) and who pushes responsibility into their area of expertise and takes over – and who, at the margin, may be unusual and difficultThe moral and ethical conundrums of modern warfare: The West is at technological parity with its adversaries, but not morally; our adversaries are far more willing to send their young men and women to die on the battlefield than we areOn AI Accelerationism – The US military does not have a choice regarding AI accelerationism; its adversaries will not slow down AI progress, and therefore, the game theory is such that the US cannot slow down eitherLaw School Sucks: “I thought of it as moral sophistry in the service of prestige.”Go Woke, Go Broke: “The Valley has realized that you just cannot placate the anti-intellectual left. It will destroy your business.” – Alex Karp* Basic things that most sane believe in are fairness, meritocracy, inputs being even across society, and that the outputs will not be evenly distributed* “Our society is crying for things that work. The instruments of measurement have been corroded everywhere.” – Alex KarpThe Left Broke Everything: People are sick of their border not being a border, their United Nations not being united, their schools not functioning as schools, and their government only taking inflows but not creating productive outflowsAn Essentialism Future: Every institution must clearly define its purpose, be transparent in what it spends to reach its objectives, and measure its output – which should be greater than its input Volodymyr Zelenskyy: Ukraine, War, Peace, Putin, Trump, NATO, and Freedom | Lex Fridman Podcast (#456) Peace Through Strength: " “I think that we share a position on peace through strength. That is very important. It means that if you are strong, you can speak.” - ZelenskyyTrump can stop this war: “I now see that when I talk about something with Donald Trump, whether we meet in person or we just have a call, all the European leaders always ask, “How was it?” This shows the influence of Donald Trump, and this has never happened before with an American president.” – ZelenskyyNo US, No NATO: If the U.S. left NATO, it would essentially fall apart. The U.S. is critical to NATO's strength and global security. The role America played in World War II shows how much its support matters in conflicts like thisForgiveness? “Russia will have to apologize. This will happen because they are guilty.”– ZelenskyyUkraine's future is with Europe, not Russia: “I think the most important thing is to remain open and not change our direction because culturally aligning with Russia, it's one idea, while aligning with Europe is another. Our people have chosen Europe. It's their choice, it's our choice, the choice of our nation, and I think it's very important.” – Zelenskyy Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky | Philosophize This! with Stephen West (#219) Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky: A tormented man wrestles with guilt and morality after a desperate act, unraveling a gripping exploration of justice, redemption, and the human soul.“Rational utopianism” – A belief that suggests through utilitarian rational calculations, we can arrive at moral truth and create a utopian socialist system of organizing people that can be perfected if this moral calculus improves over time2 Problems with rational utopianism and Russian nihilism:* (1) Consider how quickly Raskolnikov's perfectly crafted plan resulted in an innocent person getting an axe to the head; and* (2) The rational egoism that often accompanies Russian nihilism magically places Raskolnikov at the center of the decision-maker processRaskolnikov is not an example of Nietzsche's Ubermensch: Instead, he is an example of a very particular kind of nihilism that was gaining popularity in Russia at the time Dostoevsky wrote the bookYou're Not That Special: Dostoevsky was very skeptical of any individual who thought they were special compared to the people around themThe Stories We Tell Ourselves: “It is uniquely possible in this modern world to exist in a way where your whole life never becomes about facing the discomfort of looking at yourself honestly, but about endlessly rationalizing your behavior and then coming up with a story that sounds pretty good about it.” – Stephen WestSave What You Can: The choices that we have to make are not always optimal and they are often dictated by circumstances that are outside of our control; but no matter the circumstances in this sometimes horrible world, there is always at least some personal salvation that is possible in consent and affirmation of our place in a relational networkAccountability: Taking accountability for what you are wrong about is one of the only ways to grow as a person and is one of the most powerful things that you can do in your life Thank you for subscribing.

Coach Josh and I use Marco Polo to communicate during the week. He allows me to send questions as I have them. He listens and responds when he gets the chance. I'm very grateful to have Josh Melton in my corner as we grow C3 to the next level in 2023, which is to add the second building block and earn over $100,000 income from the cleaning business. Josh and I had an exchange on November 8th and 9th of 2022 that was so interesting to me. I've never heard it talked about before in the cleaning groups or other podcasts. I had to cover it here.Cleaning is a business, but a business is not merely a ledger with a list of transactions. It's easy to pull up a profit and loss report and see all of the income and expense transactions. It's easy to see the text and numbers printed on the screen or page and assume you're looking at the cleaning business. I don't believe a business merely consists of transactions. A business is relationships. A cleaning business is a group of humans cleaning for other humans, all of which have personalities, beliefs, families, interests. It's easy to measure a business in transactions. That's what our accountants do. It's not easy to measure the relational strength of our business.Josh poses an interesting point in his Marco Polo to me. "I believe that you can trust someone that you don't respect. But I don't believe you can respect someone you don't trust." I agree with him. I can think of people right now that I could allow into my house around my family, but I don't respect them. Therefore, respect is greater than trust. How do you earn trust? I've talked about this a ton. On the "Optimizer's Workshop with Dave Reeks", I defined the 3 C's to build trust as a cleaner. You've got to have excellent character and be the type of person that others can trust. You've got to provide an amazing cleaning service. In other words, you've got to handle the transactions of cleaning with excellence. This includes the cleaning itself and surely the transaction of invoices and payments. You've got to be consistent in your cleaning service and everything you do in dealing with your customers. If you show up with great cleaning and character over a long time, you will develop trust. Another way to build trust is to give it. Others won't trust you if you don't trust them. Trust is mutual. I'm going to add a fourth C. You've got to have compassion for other people and not be selfish. This is so foundational. Show love for your fellow human. When you put this all together. Start with compassion and character. Become a great cleaner and cleaning service. Handle your transactions with excellence and trust. Give trust. Do this over time. This will earn your trust from your customers. Keep doing it consistently over time and that trust will turn into something greater. It's respect. When your customers respect you, they will want to do business with you for a long time. Most clients will grow with you as you grow mutual respect. However, some clients will only ever think of you as "just the cleaner". Become a person of trust and respect and you'll attract the right ones I absolutely love this mindset and it thrills me to build this type of cleaning business in my community.

In this final episode of our Modular Financial Planning series, we'll explore “portfolio optimizers”—strategies that add a bit of extra return potential to a well-diversified portfolio. These steps, like managing taxes, flexible trading, and securities lending, can enhance outcomes but aren't essential if you've followed our previous nine steps. If you're already saving, investing, and rebalancing consistently, you've done enough. For those seeking a little boost, these optimizers may be worth exploring with your advisor.

In a recent Solo Elite Membership Call, the conversation focused on commercial cleaning. I made one statement about the price per hour decreasing with increasing building size. This does not compute to the Solo Optimizer's mindset. Why would you charge less as it gets bigger? You would lose a lot of profit. This is absolutely true through the lens of the Solo Optimizer's Mindset where success is measured by the best trade of profit you can make for the time you decide to leave your family each day. In the ISO Model Course, this metric is called the Workday Value (WDV). With the Solo Optimizer's Mindset of trading, there is no way a solo could charge less per hour for a larger building. Larger janitorial companies will come in at half the price and win every time. Solos cannot compete. This is why I heavily endorse a solo's commercial niche to be under 10,000 square foot buildings. The Scaling or Entrepreneur's Mindset is totally different. They are not trading their personal time. They have built reproducible systems through a team of employees. Therefore, they are selling manhours like the electric company sells kilowatt hours. In the scaling mindset, they are willing to drop the hourly cost of manhours to get larger buildings. This earns them a lot more volume and ultimately, a lot more profit. I shared in this clip that the Solo Optimizer can max out at $100- $150 per hour cleaning by themselves. This is amazing. It's what I did and it's what I teach in the ISO Model and the Solo Elite Membership. There is tremendous freedom possible in this career path with the Solo Optimizer's Mindset. Just realize that there is another level beyond this that you can only accomplish through duplication. J. Paul Getty is famous for this quote.“Would you rather have 100% of the effort off of you or 1% of the effort off of 100 people?” This is the central question between these two mindsets. The Solo Optimizer will maximize the 100% off the 1, while the Scaling Mindset seeks to maximize the number of 1% checks. You can earn a level of freedom as an Entrepreneur far beyond the freedom of the Solo Optimizer. It's a matter of choice.The end of this mindset and the question of which final career path to choose lies at the end of the Solo Elite Roadmap. Optimize first to freedom. Then you can either STAY, SELL, or SCALE to obtain further freedom. That's why we do this membership.I want to formally invite you to join the Solo Elite Membership. What is it? It's the only system for solo cleaners to optimize your solo cleaning business to earn six figures without the drama of employees! Or if you want to earn full time income through part time cleaning without employees. Make sure to check out all 3 ways to access the ISO Model and Solo Elite with prices ranging from $57 to $197/month at smartcleaningschool.com.
