Do you think you have grit?

Episode Description:In this episode from the early days of The James Altucher Show, James sits down with T. Harv Eker, author of Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, to examine why earning money, keeping money, and feeling secure about money are three very different skills.Harv recounts cycling through 14 jobs and 12 businesses before building a successful chain of fitness stores—and then losing much of what he had earned. That experience forced him to confront what he calls a person's “money blueprint”: the beliefs about wealth, work, success, and self-worth that are often absorbed long before we recognize them.Although this conversation was originally recorded years ago, Harv's advice still applies today. He explains how to separate your identity from your financial results, challenge inherited beliefs, create income that does not depend entirely on your time, and recognize the thoughts that quietly keep you inside your comfort zone.What You'll Learn:Why making money and keeping money require different skillsHow childhood experiences can shape your unconscious expectations about wealthA four-step process for replacing beliefs that no longer support youWhy Harv believes active income should eventually be converted into passive incomeHow the words “Thank you for sharing” can interrupt an unhelpful thought before it controls your behaviorTimestamped Chapters: [01:07] How your childhood creates a financial blueprint [02:57] Harv's 14 jobs, 12 businesses, and repeated failures [04:42] Persistence, entrepreneurship, and learning inside another business [06:44] Building and selling a chain of fitness stores [10:52] The difference between making money and keeping it [12:21] What happens when self-worth becomes tied to net worth [13:53] Recognizing the financial patterns inherited from his father [14:39] The family crisis that forced Harv to change [17:41] Why a lack of money may be a symptom rather than the problem [18:10] Studying conditioning, biofeedback, and behavioral change [20:02] Harv's experience with Zen practice [21:46] Reconciling spirituality, generosity, ambition, and wealth [23:47] Awareness, understanding, disassociation, and reconditioning [26:32] Challenging the belief that wealthy people are inherently bad [30:00] How new evidence can weaken an old belief [31:35] Why Harv prioritizes passive income [35:13] The business formula: model, systemize, and duplicate [39:49] The four words Harv uses to interrupt negative thinking [43:07] How to respond to negative friends and family members [45:58] Growing from informal coaching to an international training company [50:07] Three questions for deciding what you genuinely want [56:15] Final thoughtsAdditional Resources:T.

In today's episode, I sit down with entrepreneur Dylan Conroy to talk about the journey from growing up with financial insecurity to building wealth, losing it all, and finding a greater purpose through faith and service. I share lessons learned from my time with Lee Steinberg, stories about negotiating major sports deals, and a memorable conversation with Ray Lewis that changed how I think about desire and commitment.

Being ghosted in sales feels modern, but the problem is ancient. You meet someone at a networking event, have a positive conversation, follow up politely and then hear nothing but crickets. The danger is not only losing the opportunity. The greater risk is either giving up too early or following up so badly that you create brand damage. Professional salespeople need a follow-up rhythm that is persistent, respectful and defensible.  Why do buyers ghost salespeople after a good conversation? Buyers often ghost salespeople because they are overwhelmed, distracted or drowning in messages, not necessarily because they lied about being interested. The professional response is to assume the buyer is busy before assuming bad intent. Executives, managers and business owners receive a tsunami of emails, LinkedIn messages, calendar alerts, Teams notifications, Slack pings and social media updates every day. In Japan, the United States, Europe and across Asia-Pacific, post-pandemic hybrid work has increased digital noise and lowered tolerance for poor follow-up. Younger professionals are also often more text-based because written messages reduce confrontation and create an easy escape route: no reply. The problem is that no sales come from silence. Do now: Treat ghosting as a signal to follow up better, not as permission to disappear. Should salespeople keep following up after no response? Salespeople should keep following up if they genuinely believe they can help the buyer, but the tone must be respectful and benefit-led. Persistence is professional only when it serves the buyer. A second follow-up should acknowledge the buyer's busy schedule and apologise for adding to their inbox. Then it should restate the business benefit clearly. This protects the salesperson from sounding like a pest because the reason for the contact is not desperation, commission or pressure. The reason is value. For B2B sales teams, SMEs and multinational account managers, the question is simple: can this solution help the client improve revenue, productivity, leadership, customer retention or competitive performance? If yes, follow-up is part of service. Do now: In the second email, write briefly, apologise for the inbox intrusion and restate the buyer-centred benefit. How many follow-up emails are reasonable before moving on? Four thoughtful follow-ups are reasonable before concluding that silence probably means no. After that, the salesperson should move on and invest energy in a better buyer. The first message follows the original conversation. The second message politely restates the value. The third can use a slightly different version of the same buyer-focused message. The fourth should be short, unobtrusive and easy to answer. Dean Jackson's famous nine-word email formula is useful here: "Are you still interested in doing something with…?" The blank can reference the solution, business issue or opportunity discussed. This works because it is brief, non-threatening and forces a simple decision. Do now: Build a four-touch follow-up sequence before the meeting, not while emotionally reacting to silence. What should salespeople write in a follow-up email? Salespeople should write follow-up emails that are short, personal and anchored in the buyer's benefit. The goal is not to shame the buyer into replying, but to make responding easy. Forwarding the previous email can be useful, but it can also feel like a subtle accusation: "I wrote to you, and you ignored me." A stronger message starts with humanity. One useful habit is to begin with "Thanks…" because it reminds the salesperson to acknowledge the person before the business point. Another practical technique is to use the buyer's personal name as the subject line. "Tanaka san" or "Taro san" feels more human and lighter than a heavy corporate subject such as "Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo Proposal Follow-Up." Do now: Use the buyer's name, open with thanks and make the message easy to read in under 30 seconds. How can salespeople avoid damaging the brand with follow-up? Salespeople avoid brand damage by making every follow-up defensible, polite and connected to helping the buyer succeed. The buyer should feel pursued professionally, not pestered selfishly. People dislike spam because it is irrelevant, impersonal and endless. Sales follow-up becomes dangerous when it feels the same. The salesperson's defence is a clear service mindset: "My commitment is to help your business succeed, and I wanted to make sure you had the option to consider whether this makes sense." That framing works across Japanese business culture, Western B2B sales and relationship-based markets because it respects choice while demonstrating responsibility. The buyer can still say no, but the seller has not abandoned them prematurely. Do now: Prepare your explanation for follow-up before anyone challenges you on it. What should salespeople say when criticised for too much follow-up? Salespeople should calmly explain that consistent follow-up is part of serving customers properly. The answer must be prepared in advance because improvising under criticism often sounds defensive. A strong response might be: "I am sure you teach your own sales team the importance of serving customers, and that means doing the follow-up consistently and properly. That is why you are hearing from me. We are here to help your business beat your rivals and do better." This is a powerful reframe. Many executives privately wish their own salespeople were more persistent, organised and dedicated. The key is confidence without arrogance. The seller is not apologising for professionalism; they are explaining it. Do now: Write and rehearse your follow-up pushback response so it sounds natural, calm and buyer-centred. Conclusion: When does ghosting mean no? Ghosting does not automatically mean no after the first unanswered email. It may mean the buyer is busy, distracted, overwhelmed or buried under digital noise. The professional salesperson keeps going with tact, humility and a clear business reason. After four follow-ups, however, silence is probably the answer. At that point, move on and find a new buyer. The rule is simple: always allow the buyer to say "no" for themselves. Do not second-guess them by failing to follow up. Equally, do not damage your brand by chasing forever. FAQs Is being ghosted in sales always a rejection? No, being ghosted often means the buyer is overloaded, distracted or has lost track of the message. Salespeople should assume busyness first and rejection later. What is the best subject line for a follow-up email? A personal name is often the strongest subject line because it feels human and easy to open. For Japanese buyers, using polite forms such as "Tanaka san" can be appropriate depending on the relationship. How many times should I follow up with a buyer? Four respectful follow-ups are a practical limit before treating silence as a no. After that, the salesperson should move on to better-qualified opportunities. What should I say if a buyer complains about my follow-up? Explain that your follow-up is based on helping their business and giving them the option to decide. Keep the tone calm, respectful and focused on value.

The breaking point came in front of the entire school. He froze mid-sentence, repeating "Donna Maria" over and over until the silence swallowed the room.

Ruth welcomes Rev. Dr. Prince Rivers to discuss becoming human with God in our bodies through the complicated embodied realities of race and ethnicity in the United States. They reflect on current events in May 2026, including a Supreme Court ruling challenging Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, racial profiling, and immigration fears, and Prince describes the heightened anxiety, hesitation, and economic insecurity he sees in his congregation. As a parent, pastor, and leader, he shares concerns for his children, the strain of counseling laid-off workers, and the impact of shrinking educational resources for Black and brown students. They emphasize the need for deep listening, empathy, and reimagined formation—including justice—grounded in scripture, lament, and hope, and Prince speaks to the whole church about solidarity, resisting colorblindness, and honoring the incarnation.    Over on Substack Prince shares the practices that have helped him to stay faithful in hope and keep him working in this area of being human in the midst of pain.   Season 29 is titled Becoming Human: With God in Our Bodies. Our goals this season are to confront the dualism between life in the body and life in the spirit, to hear stories of people who experienced their bodies as a place of encounter with God, and to explore the connection between the integration of life in our bodies and our spiritual lives with our leadership. We will be having deep, spiritual conversations with friends of the Transforming Center about their very human experiences in their bodies and how they've experienced God in and throughout these experiences. We will explore God in concrete bodily realities like gender, sexuality, race, ability, aging, illness, and death, to name a few.

A Praxis of Persistence: Central American Feminist Testimony and Sustainable Activism (SUNY Press, 2026) by Dr. Kenna Neitch establishes persistence as a framework for understanding methods of feminist activism in El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Blending literary and ethnographic approaches, Dr. Neitch analyzes texts produced by activist movements from the 1980s to 2020—from collective testimonio to institutional publications (encuentros) to social media—and connects them to the movements' cultural impact and organizing practices, such as generative conflict, horizontal cross-border networks, and what she terms strategic adaptability. What these texts and practices have in common, Dr. Neitch argues, is feminist persistence—a balance of action, preservation, and creation adaptable across contexts. A Praxis of Persistence provides one of the first scholarly accounts of #MeToo in Central America while remaining grounded in the region's lineage of activism against sexual violence. Through the framework of persistence, this book highlights the vitality of Central American women's activism and offers a repertoire of methods for reckoning with the realities of uneven progress in feminist struggle. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

What these texts and practices have in common, Dr. Neitch argues, is feminist persistence—a balance of action, preservation, and creation adaptable across contexts. A Praxis of Persistence provides one of the first scholarly accounts of #MeToo in Central America while remaining grounded in the region's lineage of activism against sexual violence. Through the framework of persistence, this book highlights the vitality of Central American women's activism and offers a repertoire of methods for reckoning with the realities of uneven progress in feminist struggle. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars. You can find Miranda's interviews on New Books with Miranda Melcher, wherever you get your podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices.
