Most people fear a $43 million debt. Harvey Firestone called it “invigorating.” When his company faced collapse in 1920 and his executives panicked, Firestone seized control. He fired the sales manager, slashed prices 25%, and personally ran the sales department. It worked—not because he managed through fear, but through clarity.   Firestone was the founder of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company—an outsider who built one of America's iconic industrial empires by doing the opposite of what everyone else did. This episode isn't about tires. It's about how Firestone quietly built one of the great businesses of the 20th century by asking two deceptively simple questions: Is it necessary? Can it be simplified?  This episode breaks down the invisible principles behind Firestone's success: positioning over talent, inputs over outcomes, discipline over drama. If you lead a team or simply want to lead yourself better, this story is a masterclass in building enduring advantages.   This episode is for informational purposes only and is based on Men and Rubber: The Story of Business by Harvey Firestone.  Check out highlights from these books in our repository, and find key lessons from Firestone here—⁠⁠⁠https://fs.blog/knowledge-project-podcast/outliers-harvey-firestone/ (03:00) PART 1: The Best Businessman I Ever Knew(06:50) The Vanilla Extract Lesson(10:23) When Premium Doesn't Matter (12:05) PART 2: Right Beneath the Wheels(14:21) The Back of an Envelope(16:36) If Two of Us Stay, Neither Makes Money(18:39) Betting on what Doesn't Change(20:55) The Accidental Breakfast(24:53) The Third Option (28:19) PART 3: The Innovators Dilemma: Pneumatic Tires(32:24) The Ford Connection: A Partnership of Outsiders(35:23) Navigating the Crisis(37:17) The Underdog's Advantage(39:24) The Million Dollar Milestone(43:10) Weathering the Panic of 1907(45:55) The Simplicity Imperative (51:25) PART 4: The Ship-by-Truck Revolution(54:31) The Boom That Hid Everything(56:11) The 25% Solution(01:01:42) Cutting to the Bone (01:04:25) PART 5: Why He Never Stopped(01:06:54) The Human Element(01:08:09) The Legacy (01:10:05) Reflections, afterthoughts, and lessons Upgrade—If you want to hear my thoughts and reflections at the end of all episodes, join our membership: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fs.blog/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and get your own private feed.

In his book, Leadership and Emotional Sabotage, Dr. Joe Rigney states that one of the first responsibilities of a leader is to determine what is and what is not the mission. In this world, a man is responsible for his family, whether he chooses to fulfill that role, or abdicate from it. The world is in crisis, sure, but how we describe said crisis will determine how we go about solving it, if we can. As much as we hear the call for strong men in the Church, or the country, or in Gun Culture, Dr. Rigney reframes our perception of leadership in this uncertain world.

There's so much to do... in real life! At least Kura has been playing and getting all the bronze!

In today's episode of the World of Empowerment podcast, Ahonu quotes from the profound wisdom of F. Scott Fitzgerald, examining the concept of holding two opposed ideas in the mind simultaneously—a hallmark of true intelligence. Inspired by an email from Robert Kiyosaki, Ahonu explores the metaphor of the three-sided coin: heads, tails, and the edge.

In this conversation, Jason and Bryant Spratlin discuss the goodness of God and the journey of rethinking God's wrath as love, the impact of misinterpretation and bad theology, hearing God's voice, parenting and apologizing, choosing to love and staying connected, identity, loving the religious, imaginary prayer, the fear of being wrong, rethinking hell, apokatastasis-the restoration of all things, the pleasure of our Father, awakening to the present love reality, and Jesus as the perfect minister. The guys discuss the story of the woman caught in adultery to reveal the paradigm of union as the third option Jesus offers all of us. Overall, this conversation highlights the importance of understanding God's goodness and the transformative power of grace. Please rate, review, share, and subscribe!

This episode is brought to you by Whoop, Beekeepers, and Cozy Earth. Nowadays, discussions around politics and viewpoints have become increasingly divisive and hostile. Often, differing perspectives are immediately shut down or met with personal attacks, even when we know that progress and growth come from listening to other viewpoints and approaching topics with curiosity. Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with his good friend and author Denise Gitsham to discuss politics, polarization, and critical thinking. Denise shares experiences and lessons she learned while working at the highest levels of the federal government and how those experiences helped her change her mindset. Dhru and Denise discuss the importance of listening with curiosity and engaging with people with differing viewpoints to seek out the truth. They also discuss how polarization has disrupted civility and what we can do to bring it back to our conversations even when we disagree. Denise is the founder of Vitamin D Public Relations, a boutique communications firm that operates at the intersection of law, policy, politics, and the media. She has worked at the highest levels of the federal government, including the White House, the US Department of Justice, and the US Senate, and she's also run for Congress. A recovering attorney and long-time politico, Denise's passion is bridging division and fostering unity by emphasizing principles over partisanship. She recently released her first book, "Politics for People Who Hate Politics: How to Engage Without Losing Your Friends or Selling Your Soul." In this episode, Dhru and Denise dive into (audio version / Apple Subscriber version):Why it's important to engage with people from different political views and backgrounds (5:10 / 5:10)The true story about polarization (6:23 / 6:23) The importance of skepticism and critical thinking in seeking the truth (19:17 / 16:53)How opinions are more visible (29:52 / 27:10) Why people are so triggered in day-to-day conversations (31:40 / 28:50)How do you stay informed by staying curious (37:00 / 32:33 )The importance of having multiple perspectives (39:45 / 36:00)Yearning for unity (53:50 / 49:30) Purposely engaging with people who have different viewpoints (57:43 / 53:15)The Third Option and committing to what is in the best interest of us (1:13:48 / 1:09:36) Bringing humanity back into the conversation (1:28:34 / 1:24:20) Where to follow Denise (1:35:05 / 1:30:54) Also mentioned in this episode:Politics For People Who Hate Politics WHOOP is a personalized digital fitness tracker.

Summary Loch Johnson (Website, LinkedIn) joins Andrew (Twitter; LinkedIn) to discuss covert action aka “The Third Option.” He is the author of over 30 books on intelligence.

We are in the heart of football season. Have you ever wondered what the NFL is like behind the scenes? This week, Charles talks with his friend, Terrell Fletcher, former NFL running back with the San Diego Chargers. You'll hear incredible stories as well as how -and why - he left the NFL, became a pastor and started a church! And now he is talking about a subject many don't want to tackle… race relations. And how this problem, which seems so huge, can be overcome with a change in our point of view.

Today, guest speaker Pastor Miles McPherson, shares how we can honor our similarities and unite for race reconciliation in this message, ‘The Third Option City.'  Pastor Miles, Lead Pastor of Rock Church, draws on biblical truths as well as personal expertise in the area of race reconciliation, as an author and speaker. We're blessed to have him with us today. Let's lean into the message together.

In today's episode, John sits down with Tricia Sciortino (shore-tee-no), CEO at Belay. Founded in 2010 as an all-remote organization, Belay is a virtual staffing solution helping leaders who need remote work. Belay offers virtual assistant solutions, financial and booking, website management, and social media management solutions. Today, Belay has approximately 140 employees and 1700 contractors and has remained all-remote since 2010. Tricia and John talk about what culture looks like at Belay, why culture should be clearly defined at your organization, and the importance of engaging your team members. About Tricia Sciortino As CEO of BELAY and co-host of our One Next Step Podcast, Tricia strives to lead and inspire their team and listeners to provide extraordinary services – all while finding great talent along the way. It's her distinct privilege to be able to cast vision for the future of BELAY and empower their team to live their mission: Glorifying God by providing solutions that equip our clients with the confidence to climb higher. Born and raised in Long Island, Tricia attended the University of Hartford and earned a degree in Business Administration and Management. For ten years, she served as District Manager for the retail chain Pacific Sunwear, however, when her first child was born, she – like many other parents – found herself struggling to balance her high-profile career with her new role as a mother. Enter: BELAY Joining a startup during the recession was risky, but she took a leap of faith. As BELAY's first employee and virtual assistant – and then onto serve as Director, Vice President, President, COO, and now CEO – Tricia has spent the last nearly 10 years ‘walking the walk' of what they call the Third Option: the ability to cultivate a balanced life with a successful career while making family and personal relationships a priority.

As we get closer to the training camp and more importantly the positional and rotation battles created behind the scenes, we at the Lakers Fast Break are wondering who will actually BE the third option for the Lakers. Who will step up to provide some consistent help for Lebron and AD? Will it be Russell Westbrook? Patrick Beverley? Austin Reaves? Kendrick Nunn? Or someone else? Plus we share thoughts on Hulu's Legacy: The REAL Story of the LA Lakers episode six and ESPN's Ramona Shelbourne's comments on Russell Westbrook reportedly "being ok" with a trade from the Lakers and his unwillingness to be a buyout candidate. The guys also have thoughts on the Pheonix Suns Governor Robert Sarver and his one-year suspension from the league. Was it too light or too harsh? Another spirited conversation as only we can bring it to you is on its way as Joe Soro from lakersball.com and YouTube's John Mikaelian stop by on the Lakers Fast Break podcast!

Most of our lives we have been taught we have 2 options when we come up against challenges. Quit or keep going. What if you considered a third option: Take a time-out, a rest, a recovery, a breath! This is an option that early in my life I never considered. All I could think about was "not quitting" and even if the faster journey meant pain, that is the journey I chose. How can we learn to integrate the third option into our practice of HR? How about as a leader of a team? What about in our own life and honoring our own Human Experience? What would change?
