Ever feel like you need a miracle to realize your big dreams? Let me introduce you to my miraculous client and friend Hal Elrod, author of The Miracle Morning: The Not So Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life Before 8 AM. With over 3.5 million books sold, you'd think he'd have started with a top-five publisher. Instead, he launched a worldwide movement (the book series, a daily app, and a documentary featuring some of your heroes) on his own, self-publishing after his first two agent rejections! Say what? I'd just gotten started sending him out! But thankfully, Hal followed his instincts.It's been a show highlight for me to cover the topic of self-publishing—something I haven't yet done here. Stay tuned if you've ever thought you couldn't make a fortune being your own publisher. Hal (and Dr. Jody Carrington, the author in the second episode) have wildly exceeded anything I thought possible without a traditional publisher's support, earning millions of dollars and more importantly, having a massive impact. As you're about to hear, Hal has repeatedly stared death in the face, overcoming nearly insurmountable tragedy. But you wouldn't know it by his attitude or his gratitude. Luckily, his miraculous mindset is fast, fabulous, and, in many ways, foolproof. Welcome.

Kait Hill faced a tough decision in 2021 — finish college or start her own business after two years of doing corporate sales. She chose to start her own business, and thus was born Rock City Digital. The digital marketing agency leverages its young staff's familiarity with new ways of creating and consuming content to help companies and individuals build brands and create identities that resonate in today's dynamic market. Kate joins us on This is Capitalism to share her journey from working in politics to going into sales to being her own boss, and why the future will belong to content creators of all kinds.   Listen in to learn about digital marketing. Key Takeaways:   [:22] Patricia O'Connell introduces Kait Hill, Founder and CEO of Rock City Digital, and welcomes her to This is Capitalism. [1:23] Kait started working when she was 15 years old. At age 20, she had her first corporate position. She saw a lot of issues with how things were run and cultures weren't tended to. When she was mistreated at the agency at age 21, she saw she could run a company better, so she started one. [2:05] Before starting her business, Kait was going to school online and working. She wasn't learning a lot and wasn't giving her all at work, so she made the decision to quit school and the job to start a business. She had the passion and drive and knew what she wanted to do so she decided to start the company. [2:51] No one ever told Kait she had entrepreneurial traits, but she has been finding ways to make money since she was eight years old, so she sees she has always wanted to be an entrepreneur. Her first “job” was a lemonade stand. She also helped her neighbor with their garage sales on commission. [3:35] Kait explains how she went from political science and politics to digital media. She had convinced a man in the media to sign a petition. In their conversation, the man introduced Kait to digital media and later helped her get into it. Kait had wanted to get paid for being a high performer, and digital media sales was a good way to do it. [4:44] Kait put out applications and one agency didn't reply to her. Her new friend advised her to find out who was the person in charge, call them, and ask for an interview. She did and ultimately got a job with that agency. [5:13] Kait has been running Rock City Digital for about seven years. The most surprising thing to her is how much time you spend handling problems. There's always something you have to learn. The biggest lesson she has learned is that developing yourself is your best investment. With training, you can handle anything. [6:10] COVID-19 was an unsettling time, not knowing if they would lose clients. Kait's clients decided how they would work, which also meant how Kait would work with them. Kait worked on the finances, and if anything needed to be cut, she got rid of it. She met with other business owners and compared notes. Everyone was willing to share. [7:09] Rock City Digital has always been a remote office, so that was a leg up that was extremely helpful during the pandemic. [7:38] Kait started developing herself after reading The Miracle Morning, by Hal Elrod. Following the practices listed in the book, she started meditation, exercise, reading, affirmation, visualization, and journaling. These practices helped her find clarity to handle hard conversations and see the root causes behind problems. [8:41] Kait finds the time for her morning practices by waking up early. These practices improve the way she lives her life. Her clarity helps her move forward and not return to old routines and old ways of thinking that are not beneficial. [9:31] Kait talks about current conditions in B2B marketing, including TikTok. Which led to YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and Facebook growing more videocentric. TikTok has niched down how video is offered to you. Their algorithms show you what you want to see before you know that you're interested in it. They build niche communities online. [10:33] You are seeing a change to personal brands becoming the next cornerstone of marketing. Kait is starting to build a community around her personal brand on LinkedIn. If you can build a community around your brand, and tie it to your business, it will follow you “for life.” [11:08] Kait tells how the influencer space is changing. The number one thing is authenticity. Instagram is known for beautiful content. TikTok is known for more casual and natural-looking content that adds value to the users. Creators will be the new influencers. Software solutions will make it easier to connect with creators and brands. [12:25] It's important to be active as a brand on social media. If you are not on social media, you are not going to be a credible brand for Millennials and younger generations. People are now searching for businesses on Instagram and TikTok. That's how Kait searches, because the results are visual. [13:10] Building a brand personally applies not only to the CEO or owner but also to employees who can post on their personal brand on behalf of their company brand. [14:11] The way people consume content has shifted. The type, length, and content of videos have changed dramatically. If you're not leading the changes, your brand will not get a lot of exposure. The algorithms are not chronological but are based on what the viewer watches and the comments they post. [15:17] Some of Kait's clients are interested, while some do not get it yet. As long as they are on social media, that's what matters. When Kait is on a business website and clicks out to their Facebook page, if they haven't posted in a couple of years, she thnk's they're probably not operating. [15:54] Kait grew up poor. She had no resources, connections, or college degree. What helped her was seeing what successful people were doing, and doing as they did. She heard you need a mentor. So she found a businessperson she enjoyed talking to and asked him to be her mentor. They met up for dinners and talked business. [16:29] In those chats, her mentor gave her life-changing advice. Having him there helped her stay focused on her business without being distracted by new ventures. That made Rock City Digital grow a lot better. There's always somebody above you that you can learn from. Mentors have played a massive role in Kait's life. [16:52] Books have also helped Kait tremendously. Some of the greatest thinkers, operators, and business owners have written books telling what they've learned and how they do it. She reads a book and extrapolates the information to her business. [17:35] Kait's initial drive was not wanting to struggle as her family did. She decided she would provide for herself. Besides wanting to earn money, Kait always had the drive to help people succeed. She wanted people to be treated fairly and right. She tried to be good to people at work, and it didn't make sense to her when she was mistreated. [18:29] In one job, Kait was working in politics, seven days a week, over 80 hours a week.She was sick one day and had to go to the doctor. She called in, and was 20 minutes late for the morning huddle and got yelled at. She quit not long after that. A month or two later, she got into marketing. [19:30] In her marketing job, Kait was mistreated by an older man. She made a sale and he bullied her about her commission. Kait went to an executive who told her he couldn't do anything because the man was a high performer. So she decided if they could run a company, she could, too. She quit within a month or two to start Rock City Digital. [20:52] Kait's advice is to ask yourself “What's the worst that can happen?” If the worst that can happen is you failing, that's OK, because you're going to learn something from that to take to your next venture. Also, ask a person you admire to be your mentor. Kait was shocked by how readily people help. What's the worst that could happen? [21:51] Kait says Rock City Digital's biggest goal is spreading workplace and culture awareness. They treat people with the respect and autonomy they deserve. In turn, the people help build an amazing business that everyone wants to be a part of. [22:09] Find Rock City Digital at Rock City Digital on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and LinkedIn and find Kait Hill on LinkedIn. [22:25] Patricia thanks Kate for joining This Is Capitalism: Extraordinary People, Extraordinary Stories and thanks the listeners. She invites you to join us again.   Mentioned in This Episode: This is Capitalism Kait Hill on LinkedIn Rock City Digital on LinkedIn Rock City Digital on Facebook Rock City Digital on Instagram Rock City Digital on TikTok The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life (Before 8 AM), by Hal Elrod

In his book, The Miracle Morning, Hal Elrod talks about the dramatic impact our morning routines have in every area of our lives. According to him, "focused, productive, successful mornings generate focused, productive, successful days, which inevitably create a successful life." In short intervals, from 5 to 30 minutes, we can accomplish many little things that, in total, will have a massive impact on our days and lives. Creating intentional morning routines will make us feel grounded; it will increase happiness, reduce procrastination, boost our confidence, and improve our overall performance. And, the best part, it's all within our control. In this episode, we talk about the power of morning routines and how they affect our day. We share our morning routines, what they generate in us, and why we are dedicated to them. We also discuss the relevance of including gratitude, positive identity statements, meditation, and self-care practices in our morning habits, and the importance of 'hearing' what our mind is doing.To learn more about morning routines and their benefits, tune in to Episode 15 of The Right Questions!In This Episode, You Will Learn:Morning routines ground us; they're the foundation of our day (4:32)How having an intentional morning routine can change our lives (8:01)The impact of frequently saying the words "super" and "awesome" (9:15)Bridget's morning routine.

Focused, productive, successful mornings generate focused, productive, successful days—which inevitably create a successful life—in the same way, that unfocused, unproductive, and mediocre mornings generate unfocused, unproductive, and mediocre days, and ultimately a mediocre quality of life. By simply changing the way you wake up in the morning, you can transform any area of your life, faster than you ever thought possible." - Hal Elrod.Enhanced Living Podcast with Adam KruegerBook: Robin Sharma - The 5 AM Club: Own Your Morning.

Our guest today fought all odds to become successful in life and now she works on sharing her wisdom with other women to help them feel empowered.   Episode Introduction:    Our guests today walks us through her journey from being bound to marry at the age of 20 to graduating as a lawyer in the UK and passing the bar in New York. Today’s episode is truly a testament to what can be achieved if one believes in themselves and channels their faith towards their goals.   Episode Summary:    From building a career after being inspired by a Bollywood movie to losing a hundred percent of her monetary investment, Meena Kumari Adnani walks us through the various chapters of her life and how her mindset evolved throughout as she made some drastic pivots in her career.    Main Takeaways: You shouldn’t intertwine your life with another person to the extent where you don’t have any goals of your own. Sometimes all you need to do is get up in the morning, put your feet on the floor and take the first step - the rest can be figured out as you go. Instead of thinking about how your bad experiences destroyed you, think of them as to how they built you.  Every single experience that we go through in our lives happens for a reason.  Most of us seek power on the outside without realizing that we already have it on the inside. Instead of focusing on your physical experience, ask yourself what lesson it taught your spirit. If we were born only to serve ourselves, we wouldn’t be surrounded by so many living beings. Meena’s top tips to hone into your best self:  Create a new spiritual identity to become confident.  Learn how to have a clear vision. Understand the art of becoming a conscious creator.  Cultivate the mindset that the universe is not working against you but for you. You can never overcome something you keep running away from. Have some sort of a morning ritual that keeps you replenished during the day. If you focus on gratitude, all you’ll see around you are things to be grateful for. Fun Facts About Meena Kumari Adnani: Some of her favorite books are The Miracle Morning: The Not-so-obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life Before 8 AM by Hal Elrod and Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.

I used to ask everyone the same question at the end of every Entrepology Podcast, and that was: ‘What does your morning routine look like?' But, for a while, I stopped asking it. And not because I wasn't curious, but because I had this slight sense of shame around the fact that my morning routine had fallen apart.   Fast forward two years and a lot of stress later, I realized that my morning routine was not working because I was trying to copy the routines of other entrepreneurs with completely different lives than me! Now, I've finally found the perfect routine that works for me and optimizes both my workflow and my creativity — and I want to share it with all of you.   So, in today's episode, I'm sharing how I crafted my morning routine, the small shifts that I made that got rid of my early morning distractions, and my step-by-step morning routine from the moment I first wake up!   Key Takeaways: [:16] About today's solo episode! [2:00] Happy ‘Adult' New Year to you all! [2:44] One major component that helps lead to the steadiness of our day: routine. [3:08] How not having a routine has shown me how quickly things can spin out of control! [4:03] The first key learning point I've recently discovered about routines: alone time at the start and the end of the day. [5:05] The second key learning point I've discovered about routines: planning reduces anxiety. [6:10] The third thing I realized: exercise is the most important part of my creative process for my business. [7:00] How I began crafting my morning routine. [7:52] My intentions and goals for my morning routine and the distractions that were pulling me off track. [8:49] A small shift that I made in my morning routine that eliminated the distractions I was experiencing in the morning. [9:27] The way that I broke up my morning routine, based on my goals, intentions, and distractions. [11:01] A key piece in my new morning routine: laying out my plan and getting organized the night before. [13:11] Another key piece: waking up early by having effective sleep. [15:06] What my morning ritual looks like right after I get up at 5 a.m. [17:44] My morning routine from 5:30–6:00 a.m. [18:55] What I do from 6:00–6:30 a.m. [20:15] Why I follow-up with exercise after opening my emails. [21:53] My recommendation on how you can get started in crafting your morning routine. [22:25] I'd love to hear from you!

To say that we’re living in interesting and unpredictable times is an understatement. For business owners and leaders, this is especially true. However, no matter what industry you’re in, or what you do, there’s still no tool more powerful than a team that’s ahead of you and allows you to focus on your unique ability. They give us the power to grow our businesses without giving up even more of our time and to see our visions through.  Gina Rainey understands this better than almost anyone. She’s the leader of AE Coach at Advisors Excel, where she specializes in “total practice management.” She helps advisors bridge the gap between leaders and their employees, and has helped countless businesses struggling with a lack of structure and high turnover become high-performing organizations.  Today, Gina joins the podcast to share what business owners can do right now to lead their companies, be the person that their employees look to, and get through these (and other) difficult times together.  In this podcast interview, you’ll learn:  How coaches and practice management can help businesses survive - and thrive - in times of chaos.  Why so many phenomenal business owners are not great managers or team leaders - and how this creates problems as businesses scale.  Why entrepreneurs can thrive in crisis, why employees often feel the exact opposite way, and how to empower and support your team members as circumstances change.  How the job search and recruiting processes have changed over the last 6 months - and how to find qualified people in a massive pool of job seekers. What leaders can do to set up and structure effective weekly meetings when teams are working remotely. What COVID can teach us about planning our own businesses - not just our clients’.  Interview Resources E-myth: Why Most Businesses Don't Work and What to Do About it The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life (Before 8am) Vivid Vision: A Remarkable Tool For Aligning Your Business Around a Shared Vision of the Future PayScale Salesforce Pardot Profit First: Transform Your Business from a Cash-Eating Monster to a Money-Making Machine Xero The Road Less Stupid

Miracle Morning? What is that?by JerryI have wanted to conduct a series of activities every morning that I knew would be good for my mind, my body and my soul. The problem is that I never really committed to a time or structure. As a result, my life followed the same pattern that many other people follow. I wake up with enough time to get ready for work and then go to work. While I am happy to be alive, my mindset and my outset never showed it.At the suggestion of Jeff Bezos, okay Amazon.com, I got a copy of The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod and found the routine and process I needed.  I'm someone who enjoys a good life hack now and then and discovering this simple and not-so-obvious set of life hacks had me excited.It has been five weeks for me at the time of this episodes recording, July 1, 2018. My normal wake up time used to be 7 am, and it is now 5 am. I used to hit my snooze button from 6 am until 7 am, then scramble to get ready for work. Today, I hop out of bed, turn off my alarm right away and start my daily routine.My daily routine has brought me peace of mind instead of the fatigue and loss of productivity others had predicted for me. Being able to read my Bible, journal and spend time in prayer every morning consistently has actually prepared me to tackle just about any challenge that is thrown my way with a healthy perspective.Resources and LinksBtR 133 - If You Are Too Busy to Listen to This Episode, You Need This Episode!Buy the Book – The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret to Guaranteed to Transform Your Life Before 8 am by Hal ElrodBuy the Book - The Happiness Advantage by Shawn AchorConnect with UsEmail: info@beyondtherut.comVoicemail: 361-596-3788Twitter: Twitter.com/beyondtherutFacebook: Beyond the Rut

Your morning routine is KEY for owning your day.  Back in Episode 16, I spoke with Craig Ballantyne about his Perfect Day Formula and we discussed the importance of a morning routine.  Today, I am diving deeper with this concept and sharing exactly how to format your Miracle Morning, based on Hal Elrod’s book, “The Miracle Morning: The Not So Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life Before 8am.”   This book was transformative for me, so I knew it was well worth sharing with you.  Hal has a specific (awesome) formula for The Miracle Morning that can easily be adapted to a 6-60 minute routine that will allow you to start your day on the right foot, every damn day.     I have been practicing elements of Hal’s protocol since January and I love it.  In this episode I will tell you Hal’s exact Miracle Morning formula and how any mom can tweak this formula to make it work for you and your family.     You need a Miracle Morning routine for 3 important reasons:   1. How you start the day impacts your entire day (remember: how you do anything is how you do everything) 2. You will accomplish a lot more and ENJOY it all if you start your day from a place of being PROactive rather than REactive  3. This routine will create opportunities for growth in multiple areas of your life   I challenge you to start with a 15 minute Miracle Morning practice right away.  And you have to let me know how it goes!

Morning, Change, Success, Goals, Habits   Summary   Does the early bird really get the worm? Well, it seems so. And there are other benefits to making the morning work FOR you. We'll discuss that in our Thought of the Day. And, later, in today's interview, Hal Elrod took morning productivity to a whole new level in his bestseller, The Miracle Morning. Actually, we'll learn that his story is somewhat of a miracle itself. That and more on today's show.   Bob's Thought of the Day   “Master your morning and your master your day.” I'm not sure who said this, but it's certainly true. It's been said that if you tackle your biggest priority before 10 a.m., chances are that your entire day will be successful. Stories abound of people who credit their success to getting up early. But this can be an issue for some. Many years ago, in my mid-20's, I was listening to a series by Zig Ziglar, and he was discussing the importance of rising early and having a great attitude about it. Although a few years earlier I was up a 3:30 a.m. every morning because I was a television anchor for a 6 a.m. newscast, I did not see myself as a “morning person.” But if Zig said it was important, I figured it was. My greatest hero, my Dad, had been setting that example for as long as I'd known him. He was always up at 5 a.m., praying, studying, exercising, and going to Miyan at the local Synagogue. He was always up very early, and always with a fantastic attitude. And, one of the most successful people I know! So, I listened to Zig teach me how to wake up with a great attitude. He said that for 21 days, get up as soon as the “opportunity clock” (not “alarm clock”) goes off, get in front of the bathroom mirror, excitedly tell yourself how great it was to be alive, how this day is going to be magnificent, and how you love being up in the morning. That's exactly what I did, and it worked. It worked well before the 21 days. Others give different time frames for forming a new habit (30, 45, or 60 days), but I propose that it doesn't matter. The most important number is however many days it takes for you. The key is understanding that the early mornings are your friend, your ally. Remember Ben Franklin's words from Poor Richard's Almanac: “Early to bed and early to rise, makes a person healthy, wealthy, and wise.”   Interview with Hal Elrod   Hal shares a story of how a traumatic car accident dramatically changed his life. While blame determines who is at fault for something, responsibility determines who is committed to improving things. Blame identifies who is at fault. Responsibility means choosing to be happy in the midst of your circumstances, to choose to do the things that will get you where you want to go in your life. The degree that you take responsibility is the degree you have the power to change your life. How you begin your day sets the tone for who you become and how you show up for the rest of the day. If you can win the morning, you can win the day. If you want your life to be significantly different, you must do something significantly different. SAVERS (morning practices): Silence (Meditation/Prayer), Affirmations, Visualization, Exercise, Reading, Scribing (Writing/Journaling). What if you don't have time to practice the SAVERS in the morning? Go to bed an hour earlier to get an hour earlier. The last hour before you go bed is not usually very productive. Also, you can scale these practices for how much time you have. It doesn't have to be an all or nothing proposition. What if you don't consider yourself a morning person? One of the easiest ways to begin a morning routine is to set your alarm clock alarm across the room, which forces you to get out of bed. The average person lets their emotions dictate their actions, while achievers let their commitments dictate their actions.   Interview Links   MiracleMorning.com The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life … Before 8 AM by Hal Elrod Achieve Your Goals Podcast   Resources   GoGiverSalesAcademy.com The Go-Giver Leader TheGoGiver.com GoGiverSpeaker.com Burg.com How to Post a Review
