Are the 2026 tax changes about to undo years of work in your practice? Dr Jesse Green and Brendan Campbell go through what the changes actually mean for a practice owner, and the answer is calmer than the headlines suggest. You will find out which assets are grandfathered and need no action at all, how far away the real deadlines sit, where changing the way your practice is owned could get more money into super, and which questions to put to your accountant about your trust and your bucket company before anything shifts. If you are a dental practice owner with a trust, an investment property or a super balance you are working to grow, you won't want to miss this episode.

Wie groß ist das Delta zwischen deinen stärksten und schwächsten Vertriebsmitarbeitenden und woran liegt es wirklich? In dieser Solofolge spreche ich darüber, warum Performance-Unterschiede oft ein Führungssignal sind. Ich schaue auf Führung auf der Fläche, unklare Rollen, Vergütungssysteme und echte Personalentwicklung, aber auch darauf, wie Unternehmen die Erfolgsmuster ihrer Top Performer erkennen und systematisch ins gesamte Team übertragen können. Und es geht um die unbequeme Frage: Wann braucht Entwicklung Unterstützung und wann braucht Führung dringend Konsequenz? Hör rein und frag dich: Kennst du dein Delta wirklich?

Recognize the 7 Mind Types - How Top Performers Speak Their Customer's LanguageMost salespeople treat every customer the same way. They use one pitch. One approach. One way of communicating. And it doesn't work for everyone.The problem isn't you. The problem is you're not reading the person in front of you. You're not recognizing their mind type.Today Sam sits down with Ridgely Goldsborough, a serial entrepreneur who's started forty-five companies, authored twenty books, and was Jim Rohn's voice in Latin America for decades. In this episode, Ridgely teaches you how to recognize the seven different mind types so you can adapt your communication and close more deals.What You'll Learn:The seven mind types and how to spot them instantly. The Giver loves to make a difference. The Connector values trust above all else. The Problem Solver needs data to make sense of things. The Innovator always wants a better way. The Perfectionist does things right. The Rebel challenges everything. The Master wants depth. Each one is wired differently. Each one communicates differently.Why knowing someone's mind type changes everything. Once you know their mind type, you know their communication keywords. Use those words and they respond as strongly as they respond to their own name. That builds trust. That closes deals.How each mind type has a superpower and a kryptonite. The Giver's superpower is causes. Their kryptonite is overcommitment. The Connector's superpower is trust. Their kryptonite is waste. The Problem Solver's superpower is solutions. Their kryptonite is paralysis when they don't have enough data. Every mind type is exceptional at something and struggles with something else. Knowing yours means you can play to your strength and manage your weakness.Why people who think like you are easy to work with, and why everyone else is difficult. When you don't understand someone's mind type, you clash. The Giver overwhelms the Connector. The Problem Solver frustrates the Innovator. The Perfectionist stifles the Rebel. But when you understand each other's mind type, everything changes.How your personal philosophy shapes which mind type you are. What you read, listen to, watch, and who you hang around with forges who you become. That determines your mind type. That determines how you communicate. That determines your results.Potential beats talent every single time. Someone twenty percent good making one hundred calls talks to twenty people. Someone fifty percent good making ten calls talks to five. Effort beats talent. Volume beats skill. The person willing to work is the person who wins.Why This Matters:If you're struggling to close deals, you probably already know how to sell. The problem is you're not reading the person in front of you. You're using the wrong approach for the wrong mind type. This episode teaches you to recognize the seven mind types so you can adapt your communication instantly. That skill changes your close rate.About Ridgely Goldsborough:Serial entrepreneur who's started forty-five companies. Author of twenty books. Studied alongside Jim Rohn as his voice in Latin America.

In this episode, Dr Jesse Green sits down with returning guest Michael Filosi to unpack the seven deadly sins of dental practice ownership: the recurring mistakes that quietly cap growth, enterprise value, and exit outcomes for practice owners. Jesse and Michael cover the fundamentals of high standards and self leadership, the numbers every practice owner should be able to read on the fly, the strategy for engineering yourself out of key person dependency, the discretionary effort required to lift your business IQ, why finding a first follower is more powerful than trying to lead the whole team on your own, the discipline of taking money off the table to build wealth outside the practice, and the shift from convincing team members to seeking their opt in. If you are a dental practice owner who wants to build a business that grows in value independent of your chair time, you won't want to miss this episode.In This Episode:03:00 Why standards are green light or red light, never seven out of ten, and how self leadership sets the ceiling for your team12:34 The numbers that actually move the needle in a dental practice, and why rebooking rate is the keystone metric19:57 How Michael took his revenue contribution from 40 percent to 0.6 percent and walked out with a clean sale42:22 The first follower concept, why it matters more than being the leader, and how to spot the right person49:34 The four financial systems every practice needs, and why the sale should be the cherry on top, not the cakeResources and Links:How Does Your Dental Practice Compare Against the Top Performers?Stay Up to Date by Following Dr Jesse Green on InstagramConnect with Dr Jesse Green on LinkedInIf you're a Dental Practice Owner looking to scale your practice, learn more about our Practice Max ProgramMichael Filosi's:Website, www.michaelfilosi.com.auLinkedIn, www.linkedin.com/in/michaelfilosiMentioned in this episode:Savvy Dentist Team Training BundleIf your practice can't run without you, it's time for systems - not more theory.

Moderner Vertrieb im Mittelstand: vom Hoffen zur aktiven Marktbearbeitung — 140 Geschäftsführer im Raum, eine Hand geht hoch. Christopher Funk zeigt, warum der klassische Hoffnungsvertrieb mathematisch nicht mehr funktioniert und wie du auf aktive Marktbearbeitung umschaltest. In dieser Folge: Die 95/5-Regel — nur 5 Prozent des Marktes kaufen aktiv. Die 1-3-5->7-Logik für effiziente Kundenbearbeitung. Die Potenzial-Matrix für A-, B- und C-Kunden. Warum 54 Prozent der Top-Performer Challenger sind. Und die fünf Fragen, die jeder Geschäftsführer mit Ja beantworten sollte. Eine kompakte Blaupause für den Wechsel vom Auftragsannehmer zum Marktgestalter.

Most practice owners obsess over new patient acquisition while their single most valuable growth asset sits quietly in the patient database. In this episode, Dr Jesse Green unpacks the dental patient reactivation campaign, a low cost, high yield system for winning back inactive patients that consistently returns 15 to 19% of a lapsed database to the chair. We unpack the story of a practice with 1200 active and 4000 inactive patients. Jesse reframes the dormant list as an untapped business asset and explains why treating reactivation as a one-off letter is the biggest reason it fails. You'll learn how to map a multi-touch sequence across letters, postcards, emails, texts and phone calls, how to triage and batch your inactive list so the easiest wins come first, and what results to measure. If you are a dental practice owner with a quiet appointment book and a dormant database, you won't want to miss this episode. In This Episode: 00:30 Why your 4000 inactive patients are a latent asset most practice owners completely ignore 02:20 The optometrist who lost the Green family: why one letter is never a reactivation campaign 03:00 Mapping the sequence: letters, postcards, emails, texts and calls across multiple touch points 04:00 How to triage and batch your inactive list so the easiest patients come back first 05:10 The 15 to 19% return rate, and how one practice turned it into 350 new patients Resources and Links: How Does Your Dental Practice Compare Against the Top Performers?

Are you overwhelmed by all the self-improvement advice out there? Every book, every podcast, every social media post is telling you a different thing you should be doing and all those things might leave you feeling exactly the same as when you started. My guest today has spent the last decade interviewing more than 700 top performers to figure out what actually moves the needle. His book has hundreds of strategies, but I picked out the five that work best for anyone who wants to build confidence, reduce anxiety, or become a stronger version of themselves. My guest is Ryan Hawk, host of The Learning Leader Show and USA Today bestselling author. His new book is The Price of Becoming. Some of the things we discuss are: Why confidence comes from evidence and how it transfers to every other area of your life Why it's okay to copy other people when you're starting out (and the surprising fact about The Beatles that proves it). Curiosity as a skill disguised as a personality trait and why Ryan says it might be his number one love language. The line Ryan's dad said that reframes almost every anxious thought The Adam Sandler story about the professor who told him he'd never make it and the surprising way Sandler chose to remember him The difference between "clean fuel" and "dirty fuel" The three journaling prompts Ryan uses every night to compound growth over time The Therapist's Take: M quick take on how to apply each strategy starting today Related Episodes ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 248 — The 3 Words That Will Make You Mentally Stronger ⁠⁠⁠⁠330 — The Real Reason Your Coping Skills Aren't Helping (It's Not You) Links & Resources The Price of Becoming Connect with the Show Buy a copy of⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with Amy on Instagram —⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@AmyMorinAuthor⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Sign Up for My Newsletter —⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amymorinlcsw.com/newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Sponsors Helix Sleep —Go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠helixsleep.com/STRONGER⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to get 20% off sitewide   AirDoctor — Head to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AirDoctorPro.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠and use promo code STRONGER to get UP TO $300 off today!

Most careers stall because professionals wait for permission, confidence, or the right timing rather than taking action. In this episode, host J.R. Lowry sits down with former professional athlete and entrepreneur Dre Baldwin to dissect why professional discipline outperforms raw motivation every time. Baldwin reveals how he translated lessons from overseas sports courts into scalable business frameworks centered on mindset, strategy, systems, and execution. They explore actionable ways to build true executive presence before you get the promotion, navigate career reinvention, and develop the human judgment skills AI can't replace.Check out the full series of “Career Sessions, Career Lessons” podcasts here or visit pathwise.io/podcast/.

Even the most accomplished people—from fighter pilots and bestselling authors to entrepreneurs and comedians—struggle with imposter syndrome. In this solo episode, Travis Chappell shares one of the biggest recurring themes he's uncovered after interviewing more than 1,000 high performers. Drawing insights from guests like Michelle "Mace" Curran, Donald Miller, Michael Hyatt, Tanner Chidester, and Nikki Howard, Travis explores why self-doubt is universal, how confidence is actually built, and the practical steps anyone can take to stop imposter syndrome from holding them back. On this episode we talk about: Why imposter syndrome affects nearly every high achiever—even those at the top of their field How confidence is built through evidence and repeated action, not affirmations alone The difference between healthy self-doubt and overconfidence without experience Why focusing on hope instead of worry changes how you approach challenges A simple exercise for creating your own "stack of undeniable proof" to overcome self-doubt Top 3 Takeaways Confidence comes from accumulating evidence through action. Every challenge you overcome becomes proof that you can figure out the next one. Imposter syndrome isn't a sign that you don't belong—it's often a sign that you're growing into something new. Keep an "evidence file" of your accomplishments, wins, and moments of resilience to revisit whenever self-doubt starts creeping in. Notable Quotes "You don't build confidence by speaking affirmations in the mirror—you build a stack of undeniable proof that says you are who you say you are." "Imposter syndrome is not a personal weakness. It is a shared human condition." "Belonging followed the accumulation of the proof, not the other way around."

Your best employees may quit long before they hand in a resignation letter. They stop contributing. They stop challenging ideas. And eventually, they stop caring. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down how to recognize silent burnout in top performers before disengagement turns into turnover. Strong operators can continue hitting their numbers while mentally checking out. That is why leaders must look beyond performance reports and pay attention to changes in energy, initiative, and communication. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why sudden silence can signal that a top performer has disengaged• How strong results can hide serious burnout• Why leaders must regularly audit engagement, not just output• How removing low-value work and creating new challenges can reignite motivation The truth is simple: Do not wait for the resignation letter to discover that someone has already quit mentally. Watch the warning signs. Ask better questions. Remove the work that is draining your strongest people. Give them a challenge worth fighting for. Leadership means paying attention to what is not being said. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Elite Performance: Why Top Performers Are Using This Rowing Team's Framework | Harriet Beveridge Performance Psychologist InterviewMost business leaders run on autopilot, keeping the same meetings and habits simply because that's what's always been done. Harriet Beveridge has a test that cuts through all of it, borrowed from a British rowing crew that turned one gold medal in a generation into Olympic history.Beveridge is a performance psychologist, executive coach and stand-up comedian who co-wrote Will It Make The Boat Go Faster? with Ben Hunt-Davis, a member of the British eight that won gold in Sydney in 2000, Britain's first gold in the eight since 1912. Now in its third edition, the book is a working playbook for chief executives and high-performing teams.Her answer: ask if it makes the boat go faster, then get out of your own way.What You'll Learn:- The Bullshit Filter: How "will it make the boat go faster?" helped an underfunded crew cut noise, drop altitude training, and focus only on what moved the result.- Wouldn't It Be Amazing If: Why asking a deliberately outrageous question first unlocks ambitions that smart objectives alone never would.- Making It Impossible Not To: How teams engineer commitment, from taping a rower's hand to the oar, to booking a goal before it's funded, to accountability buddies who won't let you off the hook.- The DICE Beliefs Framework: The four beliefs, deserve, important, can, exciting, that quietly block performance, and how an "evidence wall" rebuilds them without affirmations.- Removing Friction From Habits: Why the "activation hump," the effort of just getting started, matters more than willpower, and how frictionless design builds habits that stick.- Thriving Under Pressure: How to identify personal stress triggers, from travel chaos to financial fear, and build small strategies rather than generic advice to stay calm.- Energy Over Time Management: Why managing energy, not just calendar blocks, decides whether high performers burn out or sustain results.- Curious About The Recipe: The deliberate practice habit of deciding what to focus on before a task, then reviewing it after, a step most businesses skip.

Late-stage deals can appear secure once the buyer has accepted the product and the business case, but that is often when the risk feels most personal. In today's segment, Randy Riemersma explains why deals inside the final 10 yards are won or lost on buyer confidence and how elite sellers remove doubt through executive alignment, credible proof points, consistent communication with the champion, and a clear business-level point of view. The conversation gives revenue leaders a sharper way to evaluate late-stage deal risk and reinforces why belief, preparation, and execution matter when the buyer is preparing to make a high-stakes decision. Randy Riemersma is the founder of Sell with Precision, where he helps sales leaders strengthen go-to-market execution, leadership effectiveness, and sales operating discipline. He has spent decades in B2B sales, leadership, consulting, and executive coaching, with a focus on helping teams sell with greater clarity, precision, and business relevance.

Are you building a sound portfolio or simply investing in whatever is hot right now? It's tempting to chase the stocks and sectors delivering the highest returns, but today's winners rarely remain on top forever. By the time an investment attracts widespread attention, much of its growth may have already happened. Today I'm discussing why there is no single “best” portfolio, how diversification can reduce volatility and costly emotional decisions, and why investors should aim for reasonable long-term results instead of constantly chasing top performers. To learn why a reasonable portfolio may be the smarter path to long-term investing success, tune in. ________________________________________________________________ SOCIAL LINKS: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AaronKatsmanLC/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aaron-katsman-6550441/ ________________________________________________________________ SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST: iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-aaron-katsman-show/id1192234142 Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/the-aaron-katsman-show Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1lePc1pC0giBFV1nzCGsQR ________________________________________________________________ VISIT MY WEBSITE: Website: https://www.aaronkatsman.com/ ________________________________________________________________ CONTACT ME: Email me: aaron@lighthousecapital.co.il ________________________________________________________________ DISCLAIMER: Aaron Katsman is a licensed financial professional both in the U.S. and Israel.

Flight risk is rarely loud. Most of the time, it shows up quietly in compensation data long before it shows up in resignation letters. Across organizations, roles, and levels, the same pattern is emerging: the market is moving faster than internal pay structures. New hires are coming in at higher rates than tenured employees in similar roles. Certain jobs are consistently priced higher externally than they are internally. And top performers are paying attention. This creates a different kind of retention challenge. Employees don't need to be disengaged to start looking elsewhere. They just need to recognize that the market value of their role has already lifted off. Amy Stewart from Payscale and Kelly Voss from Korn Ferry explore what compensation data is revealing about where organizations are most exposed, and how those signals show up before talent leaves. You will learn: Where pay gaps between new hires and tenured employees are creating hidden flight risk   Which roles and levels are most exposed to external market pressure   How compensation leaders can spot early warning signals in their own structure Check out the full report here: https://www.payscale.com/featured-content/flight-risk-report

PART 6 SCALING: THE 4 PILLARS TO $100M + BEYOND Congratulations on already accomplishing what 99% of professionals never do. You've mastered the mindset and habits needed for success. You've learned how to deliver world-class pitches, overcome any objection thrown your way, and close deals like the top 1%. Now, Part 6 of this book is about building a scalable sales machine that grows with or without you. It focuses on the four essential pillars of scalable success: People, Data, Technology, and Playbooks. You'll learn how to hire, train, and lead teams that execute at the highest level. You'll discover how to track actionable data across every department. You'll evaluate whether your tech stack is truly built for scale and how to integrate your systems for smooth operations. And lastly, you'll learn how to build bulletproof playbooks and documentation so your business can scale predictably and sustainably. This is the final stretch, so stay with me! Part 6 is where good turns to great, and great turns into an unstoppable growth engine. People: Hire, train, manage, and empower high-performing teams to execute at scale. Data: Track and improve data to fuel smarter decision-making and growth. Technology: Integrate cutting-edge systems to streamline workflows. Playbooks: Develop playbooks to ensure consistency, alignment, and optimal results. P.S.) Once my team and I scaled the business to tens of millions of dollars in revenue, I didn't have the expertise to scale it to $100's of millions in revenue. That's when we brought on a private equity firm that taught us how to grow to $100M+ and beyond. I share everything they taught me in this part of the book on scaling. Big shout out to one of the best PE Firms out there, Spectrum Equity, and one of the best managing partners out there, Mike Farrell. Thank you, Mike and Spectrum, for teaching us since day 1 how to build a repeatable and scalable architecture. We couldn't have done it without you. When you reach $10M+ in revenue, consider reaching out to them for an investment at www.spectrumequity.com.

The Shallows EP 022 - Bail or Sail? Erik Hinrichsen and Carson Picard navigate through The Shallows, starting with the Captain's Report, featuring injury updates to weekly staple Wyatt Langford, what you should do with Konnor Griffin and Carlos Rodon, and the legacy Justin Verlander will leave behind. Plus the guys recap the top performers of the past week, from Zack Wheeler's dominance to Taj Bradley's surge, to the shallow league viability of Ryan O'Hearn after his massive three homer and 10 RBI game earlier this week. Then the guys discuss if you should bail or sail on some of the biggest names in fantasy baseball, from Paul Skenes to Juan Soto to a very interesting sell take on Julio Rodriguez. Finally they look at some fun observations they've made recently, including Jeff Hoffman's scoreless run and the Marlins being good.

When your best employee starts going quiet, most managers wait. They're busy. They tell themselves it will pass. But silence sends a message, and it is not the one you want to send. Dr. Janel Anderson shares a personal story about a top performer who checked out for weeks, and what happened when she finally sat down with her. She walks through a four-step framework for entering this conversation with care and confidence: how to name what you've observed, how to ask one question and let silence work, how to hold the person and the standard at the same time, and how to follow up on purpose. If someone on your team has been off and you haven't said anything yet, this episode is your next step.Find show notes at https://janelanderson.com/275

The Shallows EP 021 - Mize Guyz Erik Hinrichsen and Carson Picard navigate through The Shallows, starting with the Captain's Report, featuring injury updates to Wyatt Langford (again), Kris Bubic, an exploration of hip impingements, and the top performers of the past week, including Cade Cavalli, Griffin Jax, Mookie Betts, and Brandon Marsh. Then the guys discuss potential new crew mates to add to your rosters, from the sneaky valuable Sam Antonacci, to Cade Cavalli, Royce Lewis, and a must-add Casey Mize. Finally, they look at some big-name players who were dreadful in the first half that are second half rebound candidates, including Cal Raleigh, Austin Riley, Kyle Tucker, Kevin Gausman, and Bryan Woo.

Stell dir vor, du gehst einmal im Jahr ins Fitnessstudio. Acht Stunden am Stück. Danach wunderst du dich, dass du null fitter bist — aber dafür einen Muskelkater hast, dass du nicht laufen kannst. Klingt bescheuert? Genau so läuft Vertriebsteam trainieren in den meisten Unternehmen. Einmal im Jahr ein Seminar. Zwei Tage Vollgas. Danach passiert: nichts. Ich weiß das aus eigener Erfahrung. Ich geh auf ein Event, schreib zehn Seiten voll, leg den Block zuhause weg — und guck nie wieder rein. Nach zwei Wochen ist nämlich alles weg. Das ist nämlich kein persönliches Versagen. Schon 1885 hat Hermann Ebbinghaus die Vergessenskurve entdeckt: Ohne Wiederholung verschwindet Gelerntes innerhalb weniger Wochen. Völlig egal, wie gut der Trainer war. Gegen Biologie kommt kein Seminar an. Trotzdem buchen Vertriebsleiter Jahr für Jahr dieses Format. Und wundern sich, dass die Zahlen nicht besser werden. Dabei weiß die Forschung längst: Vertriebsteam trainieren funktioniert nämlich nur als Daily Practice — nicht als Jahresevent. Die besten Sales-Organisationen der Welt machen das seit Jahren. Nicht weil sie schlauer sind. Sondern weil sie gemerkt haben: Tägliches Üben schlägt jedes Seminar. Und zwar immer. Wie Elite-Teams ihr Vertriebsteam trainieren — und du es kopieren kannst. Seminare sind nicht falsch. Im Gegenteil: Sie sind wichtig. Da gehst du aus der Komfortzone, lernst neue Konzepte, wirst gefordert. Aber das Problem ist nicht das Seminar. Das Problem ist, was danach passiert: nämlich nichts. Und genau hier setzt die Sales-Routine der Top-Performer an. Die Lernforschung nennt das „Distributed Practice" — verteiltes Üben. Eine aktuelle Meta-Analyse mit 242 Studien und über 169.000 Teilnehmern zeigt: Verteiltes Üben gehört zu den effektivsten Lernmethoden überhaupt. Eine Studie von Mawson & Kang aus 2025 belegt eine Effektstärke von d = 0,54. Das ist übrigens signifikant. Und zwar nicht nur im Vertrieb — in jedem Feld, von Musik bis Medizin. Die Zahlen aus der Praxis sind noch klarer. Salesforce-Daten zeigen: High-Performing-Teams coachen 2,4-mal häufiger als der Durchschnitt. Außerdem hat CSO Insights ermittelt: Verkäufer mit wöchentlichem Team-Coaching schließen 27 % mehr Deals ab. Ab drei Stunden pro Monat steigt die Quotenerreichung messbar. Und das Entscheidende: Die Gewinnerteams coachen nicht einfach mehr Stunden. Sie coachen vor allem dieselbe Fähigkeit über Wochen — bis das Verhalten automatisch sitzt. Erst dann kommt das nächste Thema. Das ist echte Sales-Routine. Die Wissenschaft hinter der Daily Practice: Warum Wiederholung alles ist. Neurowissenschaftlich passiert bei täglichem Üben etwas Entscheidendes. Bei jeder Wiederholung bildet sich nämlich Myelin um die aktiven Nervenbahnen — eine Art Isolierschicht. Dadurch werden Signale schneller und präziser weitergeleitet. Die Universität Oxford hat das messbar nachgewiesen: Wiederholtes Üben verändert die Struktur deines Gehirns. Buchstäblich. Und genau so funktioniert Gewohnheitstraining im Vertrieb. Einwandbehandlung ist kein Intelligenztest. Discovery-Fragen sind keine Talentfrage. Preisgespräche brauchen keine zwanzig Jahre Erfahrung. Das sind Skills. Und Skills werden durch Wiederholung automatisiert. Wie Fahrradfahren. Wie Zähneputzen. Du denkst nicht drüber nach — du machst es einfach. Genau das passiert, wenn du anfängst, dein Vertriebsteam trainieren zur täglichen Routine zu machen. Gong Labs hat das praktisch bestätigt. Die Analyse Tausender Verkaufsgespräche zeigt nämlich: Die besten Reps sprechen den Preis 40 % später an als der Durchschnitt. Nicht weil sie charismatischer sind. Sondern weil sie diese Fähigkeit so oft geübt haben, dass sie automatisch abläuft. Sie können sich komplett auf den Kunden konzentrieren, während ihr Gehirn die Technik im Hintergrund abspult. Dein Daily-Practice-Plan: So trainierst du dein Vertriebsteam in 15 Minuten am Tag. Jetzt wird es konkret. Du brauchst genau drei Bausteine für dein Gewohnheitstraining. Baustein 1: Solo-Einheiten — 15 Minuten am Tag. Jeder im Team bekommt einen festen Wochenplan. Montag: Einwandbehandlung. Dienstag: Discovery-Fragen. Mittwoch: Elevator Pitch. Donnerstag: Abschlusstechniken. Freitag: Storytelling. Klingt nach nichts? 15 Minuten × 5 Tage × 50 Wochen ergeben über 60 Stunden Team-Coaching im Jahr — pro Person. Plus die gemeinsamen Sessions. Zusammen sind das knapp 80 Stunden. Mehr Training, als die meisten Vertriebsteams in fünf Jahren bekommen. Baustein 2: Team-Sessions — 30 Minuten im Weekly. Dein Vertriebsmeeting hat einen festen Trainingsblock. Kein „wenn noch Zeit ist". Das ist der wichtigste Teil. Konkret machst du: Kurze Rollenspiele in Zweierteams, fünf Minuten pro Durchgang, danach gegenseitiges Feedback. Oder Best-Practice-Runden: Wer hatte den geilsten Abschluss diese Woche? Wie hast du das gemacht? Oder Fuck-Up-Runden: Wo bist du voll vor die Wand gelaufen? Alle denken mit. Genau so entsteht echte Sales-Routine im Team. Baustein 3: KI als Sparringspartner. Deine KI ist rund um die Uhr verfügbar. Kein genervter Kollege, keine Terminabsprache. Du sagst morgens: „Spiel einen skeptischen CFO aus dem Maschinenbau, der ein günstigeres Konkurrenzangebot auf dem Tisch hat." Und dann übst du. Genauer gesagt: Tools wie Yoodli analysieren zusätzlich Sprachtempo, Füllwörter und Überzeugungskraft. Das ist kein generisches Rollenspiel. Das ist messerscharfes Team-Coaching auf deine Branche zugeschnitten. Der entscheidende Trick: Verslotten — oder warum die meisten scheitern. Hier stirbt jedes Gewohnheitstraining. Nicht am Konzept — an der Umsetzung. Daily Practice funktioniert nämlich nur, wenn sie ein fester Termin ist. Feste Slots im Kalender. Mit Reminder. Auch wenn es nur 15 Minuten sind. „Das mach ich irgendwann zwischendurch" — vergiss es. Das fällt als Erstes raus. Ich hab es nämlich selbst erlebt. Monatelang wollte ich täglich eine bestimmte Übung machen. Passiert ist: nichts. Es hat erst funktioniert, als ich mir feste Slots eingetragen habe. Mit Erinnerung auf dem Handy. Bing Bong — Pitch üben. Bing Bong — Discovery-Fragen. Was nicht im Kalender steht, findet nicht statt. So einfach ist das. Noch ein Tipp: Buddy-System. Gib jedem im Team einen Trainingspartner. Einmal am Tag kurzer Check: „Hast du deine 15 Minuten gemacht?" Zusammen trainieren verdoppelt die Verbindlichkeit — wie im Fitnessstudio. Du gehst einfach eher hin, wenn jemand auf dich wartet. Warum die meisten Vertriebsleiter es trotzdem nicht machen. Es gibt ein Paradox. Ein Zwei-Tages-Seminar fühlt sich nach richtigem Training an. 15 Minuten am Tag fühlen sich nach nichts an. Nach Spielerei. Entsprechend schwer ist es, das Budget dafür zu rechtfertigen. „Wir haben doch ein Seminar gemacht" klingt gut im Jahresbericht. „Wir üben jeden Tag 15 Minuten" — naja. Aber die Zahlen lügen nicht. CSO Insights zeigt: Hochwirksame Teams setzen 4,8-mal häufiger auf Reinforcement als auf Einmalseminare. 4,8-mal! Und die neuronale Bahnung braucht allerdings Zeit: einfache Skills zwei bis vier Wochen, komplexe Verhaltensmuster zwei bis sechs Monate. Wenn es aber einmal sitzt, sitzt es. Automatisch. Ohne Nachdenken. Und zwar für immer. Das ist übrigens kein Hexenwerk. Das ist Biologie. Wenn du anfängst, dein Vertriebsteam trainieren als Daily Practice zu denken — nicht als Event, sondern als Routine — dann verändert sich alles. Nicht über Nacht. Aber Stück für Stück. Woche für Woche. Und zwar automatisch.

The Shallows EP 020 - First Half Fun Erik Hinrichsen and Carson Picard navigate through The Shallows, starting with the Captain's Report, featuring pitcher injury updates to Kris Bubic, Matthew Boyd, and the return of Eury Perez. Also for the first time in the Captain's Report, the guys feature the top performers of the week, from Dansby Swanson's absurd double-header, to Wyatt Langford's heater (finally), the emergence of Jac Caglianone, and the pitcher that was promised, Kyle Bradish. Then the Erik and Carson give the their biggest takeaways from the first half of the season, including how terrible the American League has been and the curious case of the missing drag on the baseball and what that means going into the season's hottest months. Finally, they go position by position giving you their all-stars at each position so far this season, and some of the picks may surprise you. It's the 20th episode!

Vereinbare jetzt dein kostenloses Erstgespräch: www.andreasbaulig.de/termin Viele Unternehmer suchen die Ursache für ihren Erfolg oder Misserfolg im Markt, in der Branche oder in der Wirtschaftslage. Doch was, wenn all das gar nicht der entscheidende Faktor ist? Was, wenn die eigentliche Frage lautet: Bist du bereit, besser zu werden als der Durchschnitt?

Eine Folge für alle, die aufhören wollen, Ausreden zu suchen – und anfangen möchten, Verantwortung für ihr Wachstum zu übernehmen. Andreas Baulig & Markus Baulig zeigen dir, wie du dich als einer DER Nr.1 Experten in deiner Branche positionieren kannst und hohe Preise ab 2.000 Euro (und mehr) für deine Angebote & Dienstleistungen abrufen kannst.

Most people have heard of the "dark web," but what exactly is it? Is it really a hidden corner of the internet where criminals and bad actors operate beyond the reach of law enforcement? And what about the "deep web"—is that the same thing? These terms are often used interchangeably, but they mean very different things. Understanding the difference offers a fascinating glimpse into how the internet really works. https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/news/what-dark-web You often hear that fewer people are getting married, that younger generations have lost interest in marriage, or that marriage itself is slowly fading away. The reality is much more interesting. Marriage is not disappearing—it is evolving. People are marrying later, expecting different things from marriage than previous generations did, and redefining what a successful marriage looks like. At the same time, marriage remains one of the most important relationships in people's lives. So what is changing, what isn't, and what does the future of marriage look like? For some answers we turn to Stephanie Coontz, Director of Research and Public Education for the Council on Contemporary Families and author of For Better and Worse: The Complicated Past and Challenging Future of Marriage (https://amzn.to/440TQpK). We've all seen people who seem to possess an extraordinary level of confidence. Elite athletes, military leaders, top executives, first responders—people who perform under enormous pressure yet appear calm, focused, and absolutely certain they can handle whatever comes next. According to Dr. Nate Zinsser, the kind of confidence is a skill that can be deliberately built, strengthened, and maintained. Drawing on decades of experience training soldiers, athletes, executives, and emergency personnel, Dr. Zinsser explains where genuine confidence comes from, and how anyone can develop the mental habits that lead to stronger performance under pressure. Dr. Zinsser is Director of the Performance Psychology Program at West Point and author of The Confident Mind: A Battle-Tested Guide to Unshakable Performance (https://amzn.to/4xAOwqS) Most dog owners believe a hug is a universal sign of affection. Your dog may not agree. While dogs are often expressive about their emotions, humans frequently misread what those emotions mean. Understanding how dogs communicate—and how they interpret our behavior—can help prevent misunderstandings that sometimes lead to stress, anxiety, or even aggression.

Vor zehn Jahren spielte er noch in der Regionalliga, jetzt ist er Top-Performer bei der Weltmeisterschaft: In der fünften Folge des Ka Depp WM-Studios sprechen wir über Deniz Undav und den Einzug von Schland in die K.o.-Phase, über bemerkenswerte Schiedsrichterleistungen bei diesem Turnier und Maskottchen mit und ohne Hose. Im wie immer von der Sparkasse Nürnberg präsentierten Folge erklärt Experte Florian Zenger außerdem, warum die Türkei dominant spielte und trotzdem bereits nach zwei Spielen keine Zukunft mehr bei dieser WM hatte. Sportredakteur Wolfgang Laaß wiederum hat die DFB-Elf in den vergangenen Jahren oft aus der Nähe erlebt und spricht darüber, ob Bundestrainer Julian Nagelsmann eine Ära prägen könnte. Und dann ist da noch Prof. Dr. med. Kneginja Richter. Die Psychologin und Schlafforscherin von der CuraMed Tagesklinik Nürnberg und der Technischen Hochschule Nürnberg erklärt im Interview mit Sebastian Gloser, ob man für die Höhepunkte der WM vorschlafen kann, welche Folgen Schlafmangel schon nach kurzer Zeit hat und was man bei einem Powernap im Büro beachten sollte. Einen Gerch zum Miträtseln und einen Ausblick auf das letzte Vorrundenspiel der deutschen Mannschaft gibt es natürlich auch.

Andy Stumpf is a retired Navy SEAL, world-record-holding wingsuit BASE jumper, martial artist, and author. We discuss the mental framework and moment-to-moment decision-making process that can allow anyone to build discipline and resilience and better navigate both everyday life and life's most challenging moments. Andy explains several simple-yet-powerful tools gleaned from his time in — and after — his SEAL career that can help you determine where to focus your actions and how to clear your mind of things you can't control or that hold you back mentally. Andy also shares and reflects on lessons learned from some of the deeply personal challenges he faced outside of combat and freefall. Finally, we explore the all-too-frequent tragedy of people — including high performers — taking their own lives, and consider what might be done to prevent more such losses.

Satya Nadella walked into Microsoft in 2014 when the company was a slow-moving dinosaur. He stopped reacting and started acting. Cloud-first, AI before anyone cared, open source. Microsoft's stock climbed over 1,000%. In this episode of DarrenDaily On-Demand, Darren Hardy uses that turnaround to make a harder point: most leaders are stuck managing the present while someone else is creating tomorrow's advantage. Darren introduces the pace setter framework and the three rules top performers follow to protect time for what actually moves the needle. Get more personal mentoring from Darren each day.

Procter & Gamble’s Australian chief executive, Neal Reed, has been with the global manufacturer for 30 years. The company behind household brands such as Pampers nappies, Gillette razors and Pantene and Head & Shoulders shampoos has long been committed to finding and developing top talent. But as the CEO has discovered, the strategy presents a temptation to push high performers too hard. On this week’s episode, BOSS editor Sally Patten finds out how this P&G boss learnt he was overburdening senior leaders. Further reading: Why this CEO gets his advice from the 20-somethings in the office As Gen Z swells to a third of the workforce, P&G’s Australia-New Zealand CEO Neal Reed says reverse mentorship keeps him connected, skilled up and relevant. ‘I didn’t realise how far gone I was’: How this CEO survived burnout Jess Saxby, chief executive of Banjo’s Bakery Cafes, couldn’t stop.

What if one of the biggest threats to your success isn't fear, self-doubt, or lack of confidence... But too much confidence? In this episode, I sit down with internationally recognized mental game coach Jared Tendler to explore one of the most common—and least recognized—performance killers among high achievers: overconfidence. We unpack why success often plants the seeds of future failure, how overconfidence quietly erodes discipline, preparation, and decision-making, and why most people never realize it's happening until they're stuck in a spiral of frustration, anger, and self-doubt. In this episode, you'll learn: Why overconfidence—not fear—is often what derails high performers The subtle signs you're taking your foot off the gas without realizing it Why emotional accumulation creates explosive reactions and burnout How journaling improves emotional awareness and decision-making Why elite performers view mistakes differently than everyone else The real reason boredom shows up when you're succeeding Why most people misdiagnose their own performance problems How to build a reflection process that accelerates growth If you've ever wondered why you keep making the same mistakes, why success sometimes seems to disappear as quickly as it arrived, or why high performers so often sabotage their own momentum, this conversation will change how you think about confidence forever.

In today's episode, I sit down with Sequel co-founders Matt Smith and Alex Macdonald, who bring together the worlds of professional sports, entrepreneurship, and early-stage investing. Matt shares how discipline, devotion, and constant self-improvement carried him from the lower levels of English football to the top tier, while Alex talks about building companies through rejection, resilience, and relentless curiosity. We discuss why the best athletes and entrepreneurs are often the first ones in and the last ones out, how identity can shift after success, and why fulfillment comes from the pursuit itself rather than the outcome. It's a conversation about mindset, purpose, and making the most of every minute.

The Department of Health and Human Services is shrinking cash awards for its top performers. In its place, the department is shifting a majority of its bonus budget to cover “special act” awards with eligibility criteria that are less well-defined. This is all part of a governmentwide push to limit the number of top scores federal employees get on their annual performance reviews. Federal News Network's Jory Heckman has more.

RUN THAT EPISODE BACK! Today we are running an old favorite episode of mine!For 15 years in the Marine Corps, I believed the best Marines were always the ones in the trenches — the ones in the fire, making the play when the chaos hit. But what happens when the organization pulls you out of the fire? Does that make you less of a Marine, or is it actually the thing that saves you?In this episode of the Talkin' Crazy Podcast, I break down the mindset of top performers who sacrifice everything — family, balance, even their health — for the mission. I share the story of being sent to SACO when I was a Sergeant, how I thought it was punishment, and how that moment actually gave me the space to reset, write my book, and build Meech Speaks.This episode is for the Marines and leaders who pride themselves on grinding nonstop, but need to hear the truth: sometimes getting repositioned isn't punishment, it's preparation. Sometimes stepping out of the spotlight is exactly what you need to grow.

If you're feeling stuck, inconsistent, emotionally reactive, or burned out… you probably don't need more motivation. You need rules. In this episode, I break down why the most successful high performers aren't necessarily more disciplined—they've simply stopped negotiating with themselves. I discuss how elite performers create self-protecting rules to prevent stress, exhaustion, pressure, fear, and emotion from hijacking their decisions, habits, and long-term goals. Because the version of you making decisions after a great workout, quality sleep, and a clear morning routine is not the same version of you making decisions at 11:59 PM after a brutal day of pressure, conflict, and exhaustion. In this episode, you'll learn: Why motivation is unreliable for long-term success How rules protect you from emotional decision-making The hidden cost of living in the "gray area" Why elite performers stop negotiating with themselves How to build a personal operating system aligned with your goals If you constantly feel "on," struggle to disconnect, battle overwhelm, or feel mentally exhausted despite your success, this episode will challenge the way you think about productivity, discipline, and self-trust. Time Stamps: 00:00: Why motivation alone never works long-term 04:34: The pain of living without self-protecting rules 08:22: Why elite performers stop negotiating with themselves 09:21: Client story: creating rules around weed and discipline 12:55: Client story: alcohol, boundaries, and protecting performance 15:08: The rules you follow shape your identity 18:29: Why elite performers create rules most people fear 23:24: How rules reduce decision fatigue and preserve energy 31:28: Why rules reinforce identity and self-trust 35:34: How to create your own high-performance operating system I help high performers get unstuck and out of their own way to unlock their potential.  If you know you're capable of more but keep feeling stuck, private coaching may be the fastest path forward.

Why does it feel like everyone else has it together while you're constantly dealing with problems? Because you're seeing the highlight reel, not the reality. In this episode, Lori and I break down the truth about success that most people never hear. We share what our days actually look like, why even the most successful people are constantly putting out fires, and how a few non-negotiable habits are the only thing that keeps us grounded. Get ready to give yourself more grace, stop comparing your life to others, and start embracing what it really takes to build something big.   HIGHLIGHTS Why chasing balance sets you up to feel like you're failing. What's really happening behind the scenes of "put together" people. The habits that create stability even when life feels chaotic. Why growth always comes with something feeling out of sync. How to stop judging your life and start owning your season. What successful people are actually dealing with daily.   RESOURCES Join the most supportive mastermind on the internet - the Mentor Collective Mastermind!

Are you a dentist or dental practice owner feeling stuck working in your business instead of on it? In this episode of The Lifestyle Practice Podcast, Dr. Steve reveals the 4 powerful daily questions every dentist needs to ask themselves each morning to build a thriving dental practice — without sacrificing family, health, or freedom. Drawing inspiration from free solo climber Alex Honnold's historic El Capitan ascent and heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder's late-start path to greatness, Dr. Steve breaks down why success in dentistry is never about one big moment — it's about winning ordinary days, consistently, over time. Whether you're a pre-owner looking to acquire a dental practice, a new practice owner in growth mode, or an established dentist planning your exit strategy, these 4 questions will help you focus on what actually moves the needle: business growth, family connection, physical health, and sharper thinking. In this dental practice management podcast, you'll learn: ✅ The #1 question to ask yourself every morning to grow your dental practice ✅ Why most dentists confuse "providing for their family" with actually being present ✅ How to protect your physical health (your body IS your livelihood as a dentist) ✅ Daily habits of high-performing practice owners for better thinking and decision-making ✅ Why working ON your business beats working IN your business — every time ✅ How to identify and attack the one thing you've been avoiding in your practice   Connect with us: Take our FREE lifestyle and practice assessment: https://thelifestylepractice.com/practice-assesment/ Learn more about 1-on-1 coaching: https://thelifestylepractice.com/coaching-services/ Get access to TLP Academy: https://thelifestylepractice.com/coaching-services/ Subscribe to The Lifestyle Practice Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tlp-podcast-for-dentists/id1476544801 Email Derek at derek@thelifestylepractice.com Email Matt at matt@thelifestylepractice.com Email Steve at steve@thelifestylepractice.com

When you walk up to a table with a group of people, you probably pick a seat without thinking much about it. But where you sit can subtly shape how others perceive you and how the interaction unfolds. There's actually a simple strategy to choosing a seat that can give you an advantage — whether the table is round, square, large, or small. https://lifehacker.com/always-choose-the-best-seat-at-any-multi-person-table-5990596 No matter how rational you try to be, your thinking is shaped by biases you can't fully escape. These biases influence what you believe, the decisions you make, and even what you consider to be “true.” Alex Edmans, professor of finance at London Business School and author of May Contain Lies: How Stories, Statistics, and Studies Exploit Our Biases―And What We Can Do About It (https://amzn.to/3vprIz3), explains how easily our biases can be manipulated by data, headlines, and persuasive stories — and how to become a more careful, independent thinker in a world full of misinformation. When you think of elite performers — Navy SEALs, top athletes, high-level leaders — what stands out is their ability to stay focused, calm, and effective under pressure. That kind of mental discipline may seem out of reach, but it isn't. Eric Potterat, a clinical and performance psychologist and retired Navy commander who helped design the mental toughness training used by the SEALs, explains how these skills are built. He breaks down the habits and mindset shifts that allow people to perform at a high level — even in stressful, uncertain situations. Eric is author of Learned Excellence: Mental Disciplines for Leading and Winning from the World's Top Performers (https://amzn.to/3TV4Qka). Toothpicks seem harmless — just small wooden tools to clean your teeth. But they can cause more problems than you might expect.
