This week we made our way through twenty rolls of ‘Word a Day' toilet paper – not (entirely) because of tummy trouble, but in order to impress one of the world's greatest wielders of words, copywriting legend Tim Delaney. An advertiser who made all of advertising try harder with their adverts, Tim is of course the founder of the famous Leagas Delaney agency as well as being one of the all-time great copywriters. You'll no doubt have spent much time gawping at and/or weeping over some of his most iconic work – including some extraordinary campaigns for Harrods, Adidas and Nationwide. He's also the creative brain behind the unforgettable ‘Perfect Day' film for the BBC – giving the world the briefest sniff of what a Bowie/Boyzone collaboration might have been. Wildly successful in both the building of an agency and the writing of copy, Tim is also one of advertising's most compelling talkers of sense – with a philosophy built around strategic thinking, disciplined work and a healthy appreciation for the value of intuition. In a chat where we skid quickly and wildly away from what we laughably called ‘the agenda', Tim takes us on an entertaining and eye-opening journey through one of the most remarkable lives in the creativity game.

Our first stop in Asia was nothing short of unforgettable. In this episode, we take you with us to Lombok, Indonesia—just east of Bali—where we spent one of the most meaningful travel days of our lives. From learning traditional weaving techniques in a quiet village to riding motorbikes through a rainforest (crutches and all), and snorkeling with clownfish off the Gili Islands, this day was packed with adventure, connection, and soul. It was the kind of day that reminded us exactly why we travel—and why Indonesia is so much more than Bali. Some links are affiliate links. See our disclosure.

I break down the two kinds of stuck, the lie of perfection, and the exact actions to create momentum today.

Episode Overview In this another powerful guest episode, John Kitchens takes the hot seat for a deep dive into the real roadblocks holding agents back from real success. This conversation unpacks the journey from overwhelmed producer to intentional CEO — and why most agents stay stuck far longer than they should. John opens up about his early days in real estate, the tough lessons learned through market crashes, building and scaling brokerages, and how escaping "hero mode" transformed everything. He breaks down the exact mindset shifts, business models, and strategic frameworks agents must adopt if they want real freedom — not just another job disguised as a business. From hiring mistakes and bottlenecks to leadership identity and the future of AI-driven consumer behavior, this episode is a blueprint for any agent ready to scale with clarity, systems, and confidence. This is the episode that will challenge how you think — and change how you run your business.

If you want real freedom — financial and lifestyle — you must think, act, and decide like a CEO. That means knowing your numbers, identifying your constraints, and building a business that uncovers opportunities instead of chasing transactions.

Send us a textHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast, I am honored to welcome a special guest, Richard Fain, Chairman and former CEO of Royal Caribbean Group (RCG). Mr. Fain's new book, Delivering the WOW: Culture as Catalyst for Lasting Success (October 21, 2025; Fast Company Press), reveals actionable lessons from Royal Caribbean's rapid growth: a culture that motivated employees to deliver WOWs to customers, transforming the customer and employee experience all at once with electrifying energy. RCG's trademark culture and dedication to delivering wows also catalyzed innovations including the world's first and biggest megaships, beginning with Sovereign of the Seas in 1988—Cheryl and my first cruise, also in 1988—peerless onboard experiences, including soaring atriums and unexpected ice-skating rinks at sea; and unforgettable offboard experiences including Perfect Day at CocoCay, a private island resort owned by RCG. Proceeds from proceeds from Delivering the WOW will be donated to the Fain Scholarship Fund, a scholarship program Richard Fain established in 1999 to support the education of Royal Caribbean Group employees and their children, which he has been contributing to at an average of $200,000 in annual support. Richard Fain served as chairman and CEO from 1988 to 2022 when he transitioned to his current role as chairman. Under his leadership, the company grew from a small cruise line to its current place as one of the world's most valuable vacation companies. Recognized for his “visionary leadership”, Mr. Fain was named one of the 30 World's Best CEOs by Barron's for three years running and received the Ultimate CEO Award from the South Florida Business Journal. His international awards include the rank of Officier in the Légion d'Honneur of France and Commander, First Class, of the Order of the Lion of Finland.

Send us a text"A lot of times CEOs will just let a person go and not really kind of think about it and just kind of see what happened. I let them know what's the cost of really digging in to see if there was a problem because man, if you can help them figure out what that problem is, that loyalty and that brand recognition of you were there for them at their lowest really stands out. So, I'm really trying to change a lot of the culture and the way that uh people will think in that method, especially when it comes to turnover with employees.""The crazy thing is you could actually quantify the cost is when they've gone through and done samples and studies on it, it's about two and a half to 2.8 times. So two and a half times that you're going through that cycle of a new employee. So if you have two employees leave, the average is you're going to go through five people to replace those two good employees. Think about all that time and that like training and all that you put into that. It's just not worth it when you can maybe coach up someone who's already there that you know has a history and a track record of performing for you and how we can get them back on track to where they were their best." "I highly suggest try this because it's it's really it's just brain science and neuroscience of how your brain works is pretty much on average the last 10 minutes before you go to sleep and then the first 10 minutes when you wake up your brain is still in a partial theta state which means you're highly suggestible your subconscious it's almost like you're talking to your subconscious and that is when you should be doing your affirmations talking about how you want your day to be. prime your brain of this is going to be a great day. I have so much energy. I've got this project or this presentation and I'm going to just like I this is how it's going to go. So in those 10 minutes before after you go to sleep, try to actively think of how that's going to go. How do you want it to go and like really like dig into the positives of that and I'm telling you what you will feel when you wake up the next morning." "Literally shame and humiliation are two of the lowest ranking range of emotions of it's the worst that you can feel about yourself. So a great trick also that I can throw in is gratitude is the same part of the brain that processes the nasty emotions, anger, sadness, depression, frustration, fear, all those. And that part of the brain can only really those emotions at a time. So if you start feeling that overwhelm or the anxiety kick in or any of those things, and this is the big thing is be looking for it is once you feel that your stomach feeling that knot, kind of like you just almost have to stop and breathe for a second. As soon as you feel that try to again feel how grateful you are, like what's something you're grateful for whether it's your children, your parents, whatever it is for whoever what is something you can be truly grateful for."

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Your Average Perfect Day Changes Everything September 10, 2025 | Episode 5178 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Scott kicks things off with a perfect gym encounter that set the tone for discussing one of his most powerful concepts. After taking a month off, he ran into his buddy Billy and had an amazing conversation that represents what makes a day perfect. This episode dives deep into creating your "Average Perfect Day" - the philosophy that built this entire podcast. Scott shares how his first wife's passing at 46 sparked his decision to live life completely on his terms, and why having pretty good days consistently creates an awesome life. Featured Story Scott opens up about the personal story behind this podcast's creation. Long before the "laptop lifestyle" became trendy, he decided he didn't want to work for anyone else or follow traditional schedules. His wife's death at 46 became the catalyst for his "to hell with that, I'm living my way" mindset. This raw honesty about choosing freedom over security sets the stage for understanding why the Average Perfect Day concept works so powerfully. It's not just theory - it's how Scott has lived for 25 years. Important Points The Average Perfect Day concept works because if you have pretty good days consistently, your life becomes pretty good on average - it's that straightforward. You're programming your subconscious mind by writing down detailed, contextual descriptions of your ideal day from morning to night, focusing on experiences rather than material things. Most people wear "masks" throughout their day (dad mask, work mask, weekend mask) that aren't authentic, which is why they're always searching for something else. Memorable Quotes "I looked at her dying at 46 years old. I said, well, to hell with that. I'm going to live it my way." "The whole goal here is not to be irresponsible. The whole goal here is to be in control and just say, you know what? Hey, I am the boss of me." "In a year or two or three, you're going to look at your life and say, wait a second, this looks a whole lot like what I wrote down three years ago." Scott's Three-Step Approach Sit down in a quiet spot and write a detailed, contextual narrative of your perfect day from morning to night, focusing on experiences and how things feel rather than material possessions. Follow the two essential rules: no limitations (write down anything that pops into your mind) and no consequences (don't worry about what might happen if you actually did these things). After writing your first draft, step away for a couple days, then come back and make adjustments - you won't get it right the first time, and that's perfectly fine.

Every leader has faced it. A team member is new, overwhelmed, or underperforming—and you don't know what else to do. Motivation wears off fast. What they need isn't more hype. What they need is structure. In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I walk through how to build a Perfect Day and Perfect Week rhythm for any new or struggling team member. You'll learn how to introduce it with leadership, not control, and how to coach the system in a way that actually creates change. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Introduction – The question: How do I build a Perfect Week or Perfect Day for someone who's stuck or overwhelmed? [01:00] Why This Tool Works – People don't rise to their goals. They fall to their systems. [02:00] How to Introduce It – Don't hand them a calendar. Coach the mindset first. Make it about support, not control. [03:00] The Three Foundational Blocks Prospecting (daily, preferably in the morning) Pipeline management (afternoons, not first thing) Personal development (30 minutes daily) [04:00] Example Structure of a Perfect Day 8:00 AM: Personal growth 8:30 AM: Prospecting 10:00 AM: Follow-ups and admin 1:00 PM: Pipeline work 2:30 PM: Appointments or partner outreach [06:00] Example Weekly Themes Monday: Follow-ups and weekly planning Tuesday: Realtor outreach Wednesday: Partner engagement Thursday: Prospecting blitz Friday: Content, wins, weekly recap [07:00] Coaching With the Plan – Review it weekly. Adjust based on real feedback. Turn structure into accountability. [08:00] Track Inputs, Not Just Outcomes – Calls made, follow-ups completed, scripts practiced. Focus on what they control. [09:00] When They Resist Structure – Don't push the plan. Coach the vision. Ask questions that lead to buy-in. [10:00] Final Challenge – Choose one team member. Schedule a coaching session this week. Build their rhythm together. Key Takeaways Clarity Creates Confidence – A simple structure helps overwhelmed team memberss feel in control again. Three Blocks Drive Growth – Prospecting, pipeline, and personal development are non-negotiables. Don't Just Hand Them the Plan – Introduce the rhythm with belief and co-creation. Focus on Inputs Over Outcomes – Great coaching comes from leading effort, not just results. Structure Is the Gift – It's not control. It's belief turned into a daily rhythm. You don't need to motivate your people harder. You need to equip them better. When you help someone build the right rhythm, you give them a path back to momentum.
