Podcasts about Consistency

Osteoporosis affects 10 million Americans, and research shows resistance training effectively builds bone density by creating mechanical stress that signals bone-building cells to strengthen skeletal structure Weightlifting (80% to 85% of your 1 rep max) performed two to three times weekly produces the greatest bone density gains, while walking and swimming provide insufficient force for bone strengthening Essential exercises include squats, deadlifts, incline pushups, hip rotations, and chair squats, progressing gradually in intensity while maintaining proper form to minimize injury risk Blood flow restriction (BFR) training, also known as KAATSU in Japan, enhances bone formation markers even at low intensities, allowing effective muscle and bone strengthening without heavy weights or pain Consistency matters most. Research shows that training for one year or more significantly improves bone mineral density, cortical thickness, and overall bone geometry across all ages and genders

Through a powerful affirmation meditation, we install a fundamental truth into your subconscious: "My deepest wisdom is my guide." This practice helps anchor self-trust, reducing the anxiety that comes from constant second-guessing and reinforcing the belief that your gut feeling is reliable.

Feeling stuck—even while “doing all the things”? High-performance coach Angie Wisdom is here to flip the script: stillness is a strategy, values are your compass, and your being fuels your doing. We unpack how to move from performance-driven hustle to impact-driven alignment, why “numbers first” can stall growth, and the morning practices that rewire your brain for calm, clarity, and consistent action. You'll learn: How we're programmed to perform—and how to step off the hamster wheel The values-first framework that unlocks clarity (goodbye, decision fatigue) Impact > income for exponential growth (and why it actually raises revenue) Hypnosis vs. meditation for faster subconscious change How to “pre-pave” your day so it goes the way you intend Timestamps (quick hits): 00:00 — Why we stay stuck + “stillness is a strategy” 06:20 — Start with values (Enneagram & life values) 08:55 — Shift from income to impact for bigger results 16:45 — Morning practice: hypnosis, journaling, devotion, movement 27:24 — Being fuels doing: aligned action > hustle 33:45 — Consistency beats crisis routines 38:30 — “Pre-pave” your day: intention on purpose Connect with Angie:  • IG: @angiewisdomlifecoach • Get Angie's new Book + Other Resources: www.angiewisdom.com Share & tag: @moirakucaba + Angie so we can cheer you on!   Subscribe To My Newsletter: https://moirakfitness.activehosted.com/f/28 Join My FREE High Vibe Life Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/811935653862055 Learn more about MAKE Wellness:  https://meet.makewellness.com/?referral=74249EEEC5 FREE Habit Tracker https://bit.ly/HighVibeHabitTracker Rise up planner + Book Of Proof Journal https://bit.ly/moirakucababooks  Rise Up Course https://bit.ly/moirariseupcourse Follow Me On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/moirakucaba/?hl=en Watch On Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@moirakucaba5802     Keywords: Angie Wisdom, life coach, values, Enneagram, stillness, hypnosis, meditation, morning routine, manifestation, neuroscience, productivity for women, mindset, high achievers, aligned action, impact over income.  

We're getting ever closer to Selection Sunday, and closer to automatic bids being clinched. We've already discussed how few unbeaten teams there are this time of year compared to previous years, and of course, we had one more go down on Saturday when Wartburg defeated Central. Wartburg has been really consistent at the top of the American Rivers Conference, or near the top of it. Head coach Chris Winter isn't the only head coach who has been part of this run, but the Knights coaching staff has been really consistent over the years. We talk with Winter about how the program achieves this consistency while turning players over year after year, we hear about the key offensive guys who are healthy and the defensive starter who could be on the Owen Grover upward trajectory. Plus, we look at the Whitewater offense, with its moments of brilliance, and try to decipher what they need. We take four mailbag questions, everything from deciphering which conferences have benefited the most from the NPI system and playoff expansion, to which play in the North Central game was most impressive, to whether there should be a cutoff for record for at-large teams, to which game -- of a limited set of choices -- we would choose to go see in Week 11 if we have to book travel now. (Spoilers: The travel was already booked, and we'll tell you where Patrick Coleman will be in Week 11.) Plus, Patrick and Greg hand out game balls, one for one of the craziest endings to a game you could describe from Saturday's games. We talk about how long it's been since New England College had won a game before the Pilgrims beat Maine Maritime on Saturday -- it's longer than you think! We dive into the double SCIAC double overtime games, and the controversial ending between DePauw and Denison, and whether River Falls needs Kaleb Blaha on Saturday (it wouldn't hurt!).  We spotlight the unusual stats of the week, Logan Hansen talks about which teams have the best chance of getting a top-eight seed and protected home field in the playoffs, we go around each region for even more stories and much more in this edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast.

Send us a textMaster the rhythm, not the race. In today's episode, we pull back the curtain on the dark side of hustle, discipline, and showing up no matter what. From shame-driven routines to the hidden cost of overperformance, we're breaking down what real sustainability looks like when your capacity changes day to day. It's raw, honest, and probably not the “motivation” talk you're used to hearing. This isn't about doing more. It's about doing what matters.

How many times have you told yourself you just need more consistency and willpower — with workouts, food, or anything else that's meant to make you feel better? And how many times has that worked… until life got messy, motivation dropped, and you landed back at square one again? In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why you're not failing at how to stay consistent — you're just building it on the wrong foundation. I'll show you how to start building consistency that lasts and how to create a consistency mindset.What we'll talk about:Why willpower doesn't work for long - great for starting, not for sustaining.Why true consistency isn't about control; it's about connection.And that you don't need to push harder — you need to build systems and environments that fit your life.NEXT STEPS:Share this episode with a friendListen to next: Ep 209: “Why Allowing Yourself to Be Inconsistent Could Be the Best Thing You Do This Week”RESOURCES:Secret (& Free) Limited Podcast: Confident As F**k (Even When You're Not There Yet)Work with me: www.lifeeditcoaching.comInstagram: @lifeeditwithalix

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Andy Gwynn, founder of Three Degrees Social, based in Málaga, Spain. Andy shares his inspiring journey from being a business coach to becoming a LinkedIn marketing expert, helping small business owners generate consistent leads and engagement through powerful digital strategies. He discusses how consistency, mindset, and leveraging technology have been key to his success, along with valuable lessons learned from franchising, scaling, and adapting to change. Andy's story is a great example of resilience, innovation, and the power of building meaningful connections online. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Andy Gwynn, the hardest thing in growing a small business is mastering sales and marketing. Many business owners struggle to effectively promote and sell their products or services, even when they offer great value. Andy believes that consistent marketing, clear systems, and the ability to adapt quickly are essential for sustainable growth. He also emphasizes that as a business scales, systemizing operations becomes one of the biggest challenges, requiring strong processes to support rapid expansion and maintain quality.  What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? According to Andy Gwynn, the business book that has helped him the most is “The E-Myth Revisited” by Michael Gerber. He explains that it taught him the importance of systemizing a business so it can run efficiently without relying solely on the owner. Andy also recommends “The Business Coach” by Brad Sugars, which aligns with his coaching background, and “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki, for shifting the mindset from simply working in a business to building one that creates long-term wealth and investment opportunities. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? According to Andy Gwynn, some of the best online learning resources for growing a small business include ChatGPT, YouTube, and the teachings of Russell Brunson, especially for improving webinars and sales strategies. He also values using platforms like LinkedIn for continuous learning and networking with experts in different industries. While Andy doesn't host his own dedicated podcast, he frequently shares insights through interviews and training content under his company, Three Degrees Social, helping business owners master LinkedIn marketing and digital growth strategies. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? According to Andy Gwynn, one of the best tools to help grow a small business is LinkedIn, especially when used strategically for sales and relationship building. He recommends using advanced LinkedIn features like Sales Navigator to identify ideal clients, automate outreach, and maintain consistent engagement. Andy also highlights the value of tools such as ChatGPT, Xero for bookkeeping, Dashlane for password management, and GoHighLevel for CRM and marketing automation. Together, these tools help small business owners save time, stay organized, and build meaningful connections that drive sustainable growth. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? According to Andy Gwynn, the advice he would give himself on day one of starting out in business is to follow the system and get out of his own way. He admits that in the early days, he often let overconfidence and complacency lead to missed sales opportunities or inconsistent results. Andy emphasizes the importance of learning proven systems, sticking to them, and maintaining focus instead of constantly trying to reinvent the process. His key message is that success comes from discipline, structure, and trusting the process rather than relying solely on natural talent or intuition.

In episode #227, “Hitting a Language or Growth Plateau,” I dive into what it really means to feel “stuck” — whether you're learning a new language on your mission or working toward any kind of growth goal. We'll talk about how powerful your thoughts are, how labeling yourself as “stuck” can actually keep you there, and how to shift your mindset to get unstuck with more compassion and intention. I'll teach you how to move from fear-based motivation—like pressure, judgment, or comparison—to love-based motivation rooted in purpose, connection, and service. In this episode, I also explore a new way to think about the gift of tongues: what if true communication isn't just about perfect words, but about heart-to-heart intent and the Spirit? We'll look at how to reframe your progress, appreciate the middle moments of learning, and keep growing—not because you “should,” but because you genuinely want to. Whether you're a currently serving missionary, preparing to go, home from your mission, or a missionary mom or leader, this episode will help you strengthen your emotional resilience, faith, and love for the process of becoming.

Episode Summary On episode 318 of Business Coaching Secrets, hosts Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive deep into the realities of building a thriving coaching business, from mindset and strategy to the nuts-and-bolts of profit growth. Karl discusses why listening to seasoned, successful entrepreneurs (“old and rich”) is the ultimate shortcut, warns against the flashy social media gurus, and offers step-by-step frameworks for helping clients boost their profits—even with simple tweaks like raising prices or launching new services. This episode is packed with actionable ideas for coaches working with local businesses and offers critical advice for coaches struggling to transition from previous careers. Key Topics Covered Choosing Who to Listen To: “Old and Rich” vs. the New Gurus Karl argues most social media and “guru” advice is flashy but hollow, highlighting why the wisdom of long-term, successful entrepreneurs like Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger is far more valuable. He points out the pitfalls of following voices that are motivational but unproven, and underscores the importance of critical thinking in selecting mentors and sources. Mindset, Psychology, and Temperament for Struggling Coaches Rode Dog and Karl address coaches transitioning from successful careers who find themselves struggling—they explore mental gymnastics, the power of building a bigger/brighter future, managing psychology, and the necessity of consistent forward progress over time. Business Model Fundamentals: Profit, Pricing, and Retention The hosts unpack principles from Karl's operating system, like the impact of raising prices incrementally, controlling costs, and focusing relentlessly on profit rather than just revenues. They debunk the myth that scale equals success, spotlighting profit as the real domino for business stability. Additional Products and Services—Real-World Examples Karl walks through detailed examples—bakery, butcher, landscaping business, hair salon, gym—showing coaches how to help clients add offerings to increase repeat business and margins, using McDonald's cross-selling (“Do you want fries with that?”) as a gold standard. Ideas range from day-old bread and foam rollers to personal training upsells, maintenance plans, and branded merchandise. Client Feedback and Creativity Rode Dog highlights the importance of simply asking customers what they want as a source for new ideas. They discuss why business owners miss these opportunities and how tapping into actual client preferences unlocks profitable new offerings. Compounding Progress and the Boring Path to Wealth Karl returns to the principle that consistent, incremental improvement (1% per day) compounds into massive long-term success. Temperament, discipline, and sticking to fundamentals—rather than chasing the next shiny object—lead to sustainable wealth and client impact. Notable Quotes “You want to listen to people who've been through the dot-com bubble, the 2008 crash, Covid… still standing. These are the autobiographies you want to be reading.” – Karl Bryan “Old and rich, very, very rare. These are the types of people to be listening to… using your critical thinking skills.” – Karl Bryan “The secret to having a better now is having a bigger, brighter future.” – Karl Bryan “Profit is the domino that knocks over all the other dominoes.” – Karl Bryan “You don't have a client or money problem, you have a refusal to help people before they pay you problem.” – Karl Bryan “Success in business is incredibly boring… It's the fundamentals. Consistency and discipline over amazing skill and talent.” – Karl Bryan Actionable Takeaways 1. Seek Wisdom, Not Hype: Follow and learn from seasoned, long-term entrepreneurs—not trendy social media personalities. 2. Build Your Psychology and Temperament: Focus on mindset; resilience and a future-oriented frame are critical for coaches struggling after prior successes. 3. Use Operating Systems and Compounding Returns: Adopt systems that drive incremental improvements (across pricing, cost control, product/service expansion) for clients—1% daily progress compounds powerfully over a year. 4. Help Clients Add or Upsell Products/Services: Leverage simple cross-sells, bundles, and maintenance/upgrades as repeat business and margin boosters. 5. Ask Clients for Feedback: Encourage your clients to solicit ideas directly from their customers—sometimes the most profitable additions are hiding in plain sight. 6. Remember: Progress Equals Happiness: Keep your clients (and yourself) moving forward consistently, celebrating incremental wins and compounding growth. Resources Mentioned Profit Acceleration Software™ Developed by Karl Bryan, this tool helps coaches quickly identify and quantify profit opportunities for any business.

Send us a textSome coaches sprint, then vanish. We explore why that pattern backfires and how steady, repeatable habits turn you into a coach people can count on. The conversation zeroes in on consistency as a growth engine—how it compounds, why it builds confidence, and the subtle ways clients and loved ones feel your reliability long before you post a win.We lay out three pillars to anchor your practice: keep showing up after the initial excitement fades, build trust and mastery through repetition, and become the person who honors commitments especially when it's hard. You'll hear how consistent action shifts your energy from chasing to attracting, and why credibility is forged on the days you least feel like doing the work. Instead of trying everything, we guide you to choose a few high‑leverage actions, track them with simple prompts—what went well, what will I do differently, what's the lesson—and keep taking small steps forward.You'll also get a candid transformation story: a 100‑pound weight loss that didn't happen in a burst of motivation, but through daily, deliberate choices that evolved from effort to habit to identity. As those habits locked in, the operating system changed. That's the promise of consistency for coaches and clients alike: reliable behavior that compounds into momentum, trust, and outcomes you can actually sustain. We close by teasing a speed hack in lesson nine to automate these practices so consistency becomes easier and more reliable.Ready to build credibility that clients can feel and results that last? Follow the show, share this episode with a coach who needs it, and leave a quick review to help more people find these tools.Interested in an honest, behind-the-scenes look at the lessons we've learned by watching real coaches grow?

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Matt Ley about his new book Manage Your Gaps: Reclaiming the Awesomeness of Management. Matt challenges the myths and misunderstandings around management, explaining why clarity between contributors, managers, and leaders is key to organizational performance. You'll hear why he says managers are “multipliers” of value, how to recognize when you're being overled or overmanaged, and why he believes managers are not “junior leaders.” Matt introduces his EP!C Management model: Environment, Performance, Identity, and Communication. It's a tactical framework designed to help managers activate and optimize their teams. He also shares practical ideas for improving one-on-ones, measuring success, and even applying these same principles at home through the Four Cs: Care, Clarity, Consistency, and Communication. If you're looking for actionable insights to sharpen your management skills and strengthen your team's performance, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "The thing is, managers are zero value add." "Contribution is all about working in the business. Management's all about working on the business and leadership's all about working on the future." "A manager is someone who's titled with making sure that they're multiplying the value of that organization." "A leader's job is to look up and out. So their job is to define the new, whereas a manager's accountability is to look down and in. So their job is to refine the now." "If you're not doing one-on-ones on a regular, consistent basis? That to me is the beating drum and the heartbeat of management." "It's really hard to feel successful in something if you don't have two things. One, you need a definition of what you're doing. And you need a measurement of how you're doing against it." "We reflect on the different roles that we play, that we call four hats: our professional hat, our personal hat, our partner hat, and our professional parent."

In this 4th installment of the “Care Is Currency” series, Rick Mayo and Matt Helland discuss why consistency is one of the most overlooked aspects of customer loyalty. Through stories and real-world Alloy examples, they show how even small deviations in client experience, no matter how well-meaning, can break trust and hurt retention.Even when the core service stays the same, inconsistencies in the client experience create emotional dissonance for customers. Running the play exactly as designed is key to building trust at scale. Consistency becomes the real “wow factor.”

She'd love to hear from you and share your comment or question on air!Leave Karena a voicemail: https://www.speakpipe.com/KarenaDawnWhat if one terrifying night became the catalyst for a lifetime of healing?In this powerhouse episode of The Big Silence, Karena sits down with Angelo Keely, co-founder and CEO of Kion, to unpack his extraordinary path—from a near-fatal stabbing at 16 to building a company rooted in simple, consistent habits that support both muscle and mood. Angelo breaks down protein (in plain English), and you'll learn how small, repeatable choices can stack up into real change. He also explains why essential amino acids and creatine are especially impactful as we age. If you've wondered how to protect muscle, sharpen your mind, or support mental health without going “all or nothing,” this one's for you.How Do We Build Muscle and Mood—At Any Age—With Protein, Aminos, Creatine, and Consistent Habits?Angelo shares the science and the systems that actually work, and how to choose one tiny action you can repeat every day for real impact.(00:01:00) What Kion Is—and Why Angelo Says You Don't “Need” ItPrinciple first, product second: Food comes first; EAAs are a targeted way to stimulate muscle protein synthesis with fewer calories.Non-workout days matter: EAAs still drive protein synthesis—even on rest days.Consistency > intensity: Angelo takes EAAs every morning (often with creatine) to “tell” his body to rebuild.Better together: Taking EAAs before training leverages increased blood flow for greater impact.(00:05:30) From Bad Trip to Bigger Life: Trauma, Accountability, and 20 Years of IntegrationThe turning point: A severe LSD episode led to assault and multiple stab wounds—sparking a decades-long healing journey.Whole-person recovery: Talk therapy, meditation, yoga, acupuncture, movement, and study.Daily rhythm: 15k steps, basic strength work, slow “zone-2” runs, and short family meditations.One thing rule: Pick one change you'll actually do every day; stack from there.(00:14:30) Protein 101: Why EAAs Can Beat Whey—and Whey Often Beats SteakEnergy vs. materials: Carbs/fats fuel; protein rebuilds tissues, enzymes, hormones, and neurotransmitters.Quality counts: Higher essential amino acid content + digestibility = stronger protein synthesis signal.Practical takeaway: EAAs can deliver the goal of protein (rebuild/retain muscle) with fewer calories—useful for fat loss without muscle loss.Aging advantage: As we age, we're less sensitive to protein; powders and EAAs become more useful.(00:31:30) Creatine & Women: Strength, Cognition, and Mood—Minus the “Bloat” MythHow it works: Creatine saturates muscle (and brain) phosphocreatine stores, making reps and sprints feel slightly easier—strength builds over time.Brain benefits: Higher intakes in studies have shown improvements in memory/focus; emerging research suggests better depression outcomes.Myth-busting: Quality creatine monohydrate doesn't cause true “bloat”; women tend to gain strength/endur­ance—not bulk.Dosage mindset: Daily use matters (not just on lift days). Pair with protein/EAAs and strength work for the compounding effect.(00:40:30) Weight Loss Without Muscle Loss: GLP-1s, Deficits & The Case for More Protein/EAAsThe risk: Calorie deficits (drug-assisted or not) can strip muscle unless protein/EAAs are substantially higher.Target outcome: Lose fat, keep muscle—use EAAs as a “cheat code” to shore up a...

Short intro: Forgetting names kills first impressions. The good news: a few simple, repeatable techniques can make you memorable and help you recall others—consistently, even in noisy, post-pandemic mixers and business events.  Is there a simple way to say my name so people actually remember it? Yes: use “Pause, Part, Punch.” Pause before you speak, insert a brief “part” between your first and last name, then punch (emphasise) your surname. The pause stops the mental scroll, the parting creates a clean boundary (helpful in loud rooms or across accents), and the punch leaves a sticky final note—useful in Japan, the US, and Europe where surnames often carry professional identity. Executives at multinationals and SMEs alike can coach teams to deploy this consistently at trade shows, chambers of commerce events, and alumni nights. Over time, your name becomes an asset—clear, repeatable, and easy to introduce.  Do now: Practise: “Hello, my name is… (pause) …Keiko… (part)…TANAKA.” Record it, tweak cadence, rehearse daily.  What's the fastest framework to remember someone else's name on the spot? Start with LIRA: Look & Listen, Impression, Repetition, Association. First, give full visual and auditory attention—phones down, eyes up. Next, form a quick impression (“Mr Tall Suzuki with heavy rims”) to create a mental hook. Then repeat their name naturally in conversation (not creepily), and finish with an association—link to a character, place, or attribute you won't forget (e.g., Suzuki as “Japan's Clark Kent”). Compared with generic “memory palace” tricks, LIRA is lighter, faster, and better for high-tempo events as of 2025, across industries from B2B SaaS to professional services.  Do now: Use their name once early, once mid-chat, once when you part: “Thanks, Suzuki-san—great insight on logistics.”  How do I create vivid mental images that actually stick? Use PACE: Person, Action, Colour, Exaggeration. Picture the person like a movie poster with their name. Add an action tied to meaning or sound (Asakawa = fast-running stream). Layer in a colour cue (Mr Black, Ms White). Then exaggerate—big cape, soaring over Otemachi, a giant sign reading “SUZUKI.” This amps up memorability under cognitive load and cross-language settings (useful in Japan–APAC events where name sounds may be unfamiliar to English speakers). Compared with straight repetition, PACE exploits how our brains favour images and unusual scenes for recall.  Do now: On first hearing the name, take one second to sketch a wild, colourful micro-scene in your head—then lock it with a quick repeat.  Are there smart shortcuts for linking names to context? Yes—try BRAMMS: Business, Rhyme, Appearance, Meaning, Mind Picture, Similar Name. Tie the name to their business (Tokoro in real estate). Use a rhyme (“straight-back Tanaka”). Note a standout appearance cue (Onaka with a big belly). Leverage the meaning (Takai = tall; Minami = south). Make a mind picture (Abe as Abe Lincoln). Or a similar name pun (Kawai ~ kawaii). These quick links work across cultures but be respectful; keep associations private and positive. In cross-border teams (Tokyo vs. Sydney vs. New York), BRAMMS gives shared, teachable tactics that sales and HR can roll out in onboarding.  Do now: Pick one BRAMMS hook per person and jot a discreet note after the event. Consistency beats cleverness.  How do I avoid sounding weird when I use someone's name? Space it out and keep it situational. Use the name once as confirmation (“Did I hear Asakawa correctly?”), once to reinforce rapport (“Asakawa-san, that supply-chain example—brilliant”), and once to close (“Thanks, Asakawa-san, let's reconnect next week”). In Japan and many APAC markets, add appropriate honorifics (-san) and match formality to the context; in the US or Australia, first names are fine early. The goal is natural cadence, not performance. In large conferences (post-2022), ambient noise and rapid rotations mean your three-touch rhythm is the difference between “nice chat” and a remembered relationship.  Do now: Commit to a “1-1-1 rule”: one use early, one mid-conversation, one at goodbye—then stop.  What practice routine builds lasting skill without overwhelm? Train one or two techniques per week and score yourself. Don't try every acronym at once. This week, master Pause-Part-Punch for your name and LIRA for their name. Next week, add a single PACE element. Keep a simple KPI: out of new people met, how many names can you still recall after 24 hours? Leaders can embed this in sales enablement and campus recruiting. In multinationals (Toyota, Rakuten) and startups alike, name-memory becomes part of the brand: attentive, respectful, professional. Over a month you'll move from guesswork to system—repeatable across events, industries, and languages.  Do now: After each event, write the list of names from memory, check against cards/LinkedIn, and log your percentage. Aim for +10% per month.  Quick checklist Practise Pause–Part–Punch for your own intro. Deploy LIRA on first contact; BRAMMS for backup cues. Build images with PACE; keep them private and positive. Use the 1-1-1 name-use rhythm. Track recall within 24 hours; improve monthly.  2021.10.7 How To Remember Peopl… Conclusion Remembering names isn't a talent; it's a process. With a few small behaviours—well-timed emphasis, intentional listening, vivid associations—you'll create stronger first impressions and build trust faster across Japan, Australia, the US, and beyond.

My goal in this podcast episode is to give you LOTS of ideas of things you can do, that each only take 10 minutes, that will level up your life in some way.  I think most of us feel like we want less time on our phones and more time doing things that make us feel fulfilled or have more energy or stronger relationships or make more money or whatever it is.  But, it's just so much easier to default to scrolling rather than adding in a consistent 10 minute habit that really stacks up over time.  Well, that's no longer because I've compiled a massive list of 10 minute habit ideas for you that you can pick from based on your priorities right now.  Let's break it down in the different buckets of life!  For Energy, Focus, and Longevity Take electrolytes first thing in the morning... replenish hydration and minerals for brain clarity and steady energy. Ten minutes of sunlight exposure... triggers cortisol awakening response, regulates circadian rhythm, boosts mood. Red light therapy... 10 minutes in front of a red-light panel to improve mitochondrial function and recovery. Cold plunge or cold shower for 3–10 minutes... boosts dopamine and metabolism for hours afterward. Ten minutes of stretching or mobility work... especially in the morning; wakes up the body and reduces stiffness. Barefoot grounding outside... 10 minutes on grass or sand to lower inflammation and stress hormones. Ten minutes of sprint intervals... short bursts that train mitochondria and improve cardiovascular health dramatically. Get your blood work done and take the right supplements... know your numbers and personalize your protocol. Prep protein... cook or portion protein for the day so you easily hit 30–50g per meal. Eat a high-protein breakfast... reduces hunger and improves focus all day. For Finances and Growth Ten minutes of money tracking... check spending, update budget, or review one financial goal daily. Ten minutes of reading or audiobook learning... one chapter a day equals 20 or more books a year. Ten minutes of skill building... learn guitar, code, Spanish, or design... whatever moves you forward. Ten minutes of reflection... write down what worked and what didn't today. That's how you make micro-improvements. Ten minutes of planning tomorrow... align your calendar with your goals before bed. For Relationships and Connection Ten-minute phone call or voice note to someone you love... strengthens bonds and releases oxytocin. Ten minutes of undistracted connection... put down the phone, hug your kids or partner, be fully present. Ten minutes of gratitude journaling focused on people... write down what you appreciate about those in your life. Ten-minute micro-dates... sit with your partner on the porch, go for a quick walk, or share coffee in the morning. Send one encouraging message... to a friend, coworker, or family member... spreads positivity fast. For Joy, Peace, and Fulfillment Ten minutes of meditation or deep breathing... lowers cortisol and improves emotional regulation. Ten minutes of prayer or quiet reflection... anchors you before the noise of the day. Ten minutes decluttering one drawer or space... creates visible progress and mental clarity. Ten minutes outside... barefoot, walking, or just sitting; sunlight and nature instantly boost your mood. Ten minutes of dancing, movement, or play... raise your state and reset your nervous system. Ten minutes of creative flow... doodle, write, design... get into that zone where time disappears. Ten minutes of laughter or comedy... laughter reduces stress hormones and boosts immunity. How to Make It Stick Pick 3 to 5 habits that fit your goals and rotate them daily. Stack new habits onto existing routines. Track it visually... checkmarks trigger motivation. Focus on consistency over intensity... ten minutes daily beats one hour once a week.   So that's the magic of ten minutes. You don't need a total life overhaul... you just need a few small, intentional blocks of time that you protect every day. Consistency compounds. Hydrate your body, feed your mind, move your muscles, connect with your people, and give yourself those tiny daily deposits that build a truly awesome life.   Link to my 2.0 System that I use to do all of this on the daily!  https://howtobeawesomeateverything.com/pages/2-0weeklyhabitsandplanningsystem   Thank you for listening!!

Most agents are a little freaked out by AI, but here's the truth: it's not here to replace the real estate professional. It's here to replace inefficiency. For years, real estate has rewarded the agents who grind harder, not smarter. The ones who show up earlier, stay up later, and never stop hustling. But the next wave of top producers will be the ones who out-automate everyone else. When most agents hear “AI,” they think job loss. But what if it's actually the key to something real estate's never offered: predictable income and real financial freedom? What if it's the missing link between chaos and consistency in your business? How do we lean into AI and leverage it to run profitable businesses? I was featured on Atlanta real estate broker Glennda Baker's show, Glennda's Gurus.  We talked about how to build a retirement-ready business in a field that doesn't even have pensions. We also discussed how to use AI to scale your brand and influence, and why fear is the biggest wealth killer in real estate right now.   We've been using AI for many years, but companies have been charging us for it. Now we have the choice to use these tools to increase our income, return on investment, and return on time for free. -Marki Lemons Ryhal    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  AI as your income multiplier I boosted my productivity by 261% and my monthly income by 283% by automating repetitive tasks. How can you use AI to do the same, without losing your personal touch? Consistency as your competitive edge Success in real estate isn't about doing more; it's about doing the right things consistently. How can AI help you stay consistent when motivation fades? Automation as your retirement plan Most agents don't have pensions, but technology can help you build one. How can automation create the financial freedom real estate rarely provides? Fear is your biggest opportunity If most agents are too scared to adopt AI, what happens to those who lean in early and master it while others hesitate?   Guest Bio Glennda Baker is an international real estate broker with three decades of expertise, recognized as both a prominent social media influencer and a distinguished thought leader in the field.

When I was in my 30s and 40s, I thought health was something you earned with discipline. I ate clean, drank tons of water, ran marathons and swallowed whatever supplements were trending. And even though I appeared to be doing everything right, my stress was through the roof and my body constantly ached. I was always looking for the next thing to fix. But here's what I didn't realize:  I wasn't broken, or even unhealthy. I just wasn't listening to my body. I cared more about how things looked than how they felt.  I thought I had to prove that I was healthy by doing hard shit–taking on more than I could actually handle. I didn't understand that relaxation isn't something you earn after you check all the boxes. It's an essential ingredient to success.  In today's episode, I'm talking with Courtney Townley, host of Grace & Grit and author of The Consistency Code. Courtney helps women navigate the health maze of midlife—when your resilience to stress is naturally lower, and the load you're carrying has never been heavier, and the old strategies you've used to just keep going are no longer working. In this episode, you'll learn: Why doing more often makes you less healthy—and how your definition of self-care needs to change How to identify “integrity pain,” the tension between who you are and how you're living What to do when your motivation disappears and you literally don't have the energy to keep up with your damn self Being healthy isn't about external metrics…it's when you learn how to experience unconditional love for your body.

In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, host LA Williams sits down with Brandon Anderson, Vice President at Dealer Synergy and Founder of Anderson Athletic Academy, to discuss the parallels between high-level sports and success in automotive sales!  “To me, the mindset has to be, how can I be better immediately, not six months from now.” – Brandon Anderson They delve into how principles such as discipline, consistency, and effective coaching transcend industries, offering insights into achieving greatness regardless of one's field. Brandon shares his experiences and the mindset required to excel, drawing comparisons between preparing athletes for the NFL and coaching salespeople to reach their full potential. “Preparation always meets opportunity, right? So when you're prepared, you're ready to cash in on the opportunity.” – Brandon Anderson The discussion emphasizes the importance of viewing sales as a professional sport, requiring the same dedication, preparation, and competitive spirit. Keywords like "high-level performance," "sales coaching," and "competitive mindset" underscore the techniques and strategies necessary to elevate sales effectiveness! Brandon illustrates how having discipline and an unwavering drive can turn ordinary efforts into extraordinary achievements, whether on the playing field or the sales floor. The episode concludes with advice for sales managers on transforming their teams through accountability and effective coaching, urging them to embrace a culture of continuous improvement.   Key Takeaways: ✅Discipline and Consistency: Brandon emphasizes the role of preparation and consistent effort in achieving success, whether in sports or sales. ✅Competitive Mindset: Embracing competition and striving for better results is crucial in any field. ✅Importance of Fundamentals: Mastering basics are essential before advancing to more sophisticated techniques in sales or sports. ✅Coaching and Accountability: The significance of having a strong coach to guide, motivate, and hold teams accountable is highlighted. ✅Continual Improvement: The episode promotes a culture of learning and adapting through regular review and analysis of performance.   About Brandon Anderson Brandon Anderson is an exceptional individual known for his multifaceted background in athletics and business coaching. As an All-American defensive back, Brandon has thrived in competitive sports, later transitioning into coaching, where he focused initially on training athletes for the NFL through his establishment, Anderson Athletic Academy. Today, he serves as a performance coach at Dealer Synergy, translating his deep insights from the athletic world into actionable coaching strategies for sales teams. Brandon is recognized for his unique ability to cultivate both individual and team potential, leveraging his expertise to spearhead transformation within the automotive sales industry!   Bridging the Gap Between Athletic Mindsets and Car Sales Success Key Takeaways Repetition and Consistency for Mastery: Just like athletes practice relentless repetition, sales professionals must adopt the same discipline for success. Mindset Overcomes Barriers: A competitive and resilient mindset can transcend different fields, motivating continuous improvement regardless of past performance. The Importance of the Hidden Grind: Private preparation—away from direct supervision—fuels public performance, driving success both in sports and sales.   Repetition: The Athlete's Secret to Sales Mastery Repetition and consistency underpin the journey to excellence in any field, be it athletics or car sales. Athletes dedicate countless hours to perfecting their craft through unwavering repetition, an approach directly applicable in other sectors. As Brandon Anderson emphasized, "Greatness is consistency… It's boring because you got to do the same thing over and over." The same principle applies to sales professionals, where mastery is achieved through consistent practice and process adherence. Understanding the necessity of repetition allows salespeople to bridge the gap between ordinary performance and extraordinary success. Anderson notes, "Practice doesn't make perfect because we always can be better, but it makes permanent." While this might seem mundane, enduring repetition integrates skills and processes into a salesperson's daily routine, driving efficiency and expertise. This disciplined approach fosters a deep understanding of sales tactics, ultimately leading to improved conversion rates and career advancement. Cultivating a Competitive Mindset Across Industries A central theme of the discussion was the transformative power of a competitive mindset in achieving success, regardless of the field. LA Williams highlighted, "If salespeople… looked at themselves as an athlete, what are some of the changes you think folks… would change for people?" The answer lies in adopting the athlete's tenacity and drive to excel beyond the status quo, as Anderson underscores with, "Do you want to be the best or you just want to be here?" This mindset shift involves a relentless pursuit of excellence and the willingness to push past current limits. Whether managing a challenging sales month or underperforming in a game, the key is bouncing back stronger and more determined. As Anderson states, "In winners, that doesn't exist because if you had a bad half, you're ready for the second half." A competitive outlook encourages continuous self-improvement and the resilience needed to tackle setbacks head-on, converting challenges into opportunities for growth. The Hidden Grind: Private Preparation Drives Public Performance Behind every public performance is a wealth of private dedication and unseen effort. Williams and Anderson highlight the importance of this "hidden grind"—the silent, tireless work away from the spotlight that truly fuels success. Anderson articulates, "The private grind is more important… that private grind, you're watching film, you're trying to see tendencies, you're trying to see what's going on." This preparation is essential for both athletes and salespeople, where those extra hours of work cultivate confidence and capability. Sales professionals who engage in this hidden grind—a combination of practice, strategy review, and personal growth—equip themselves to overcome challenges and excel under pressure. In the dealership context, this might involve reviewing sales calls to identify improvements, studying trends to refine pitches, or dedicating time to personal development. As Williams notes, "Rehearse in private so that you can perform in public," reinforcing how this critical preparation distinguishes high achievers from their peers. Viewing these insights together, it's evident that the synergy between an athlete's mindset and a sales professional's success creates a powerful blueprint for personal and professional growth. Emphasizing repetition, fostering a competitive mindset, and committing to private preparation offers sales professionals a holistic framework for achieving excellence. By harnessing these principles, individuals can transcend perceived limitations, achieving results that redefine their career trajectories and set new benchmarks for success. The journey to greatness—whether on the field or the sales floor—demands dedication, resilience, and a relentless pursuit of improvement.   Resources + Our Proud Sponsors: ➼ The Millionaire Car Salesman Facebook Group: Join the #1 Mastermind Group in the Automotive Industry with over 29,000 members worldwide.

In this week's training, I shared one of the most valuable lessons I've learned: consistency will always outperform perfection. Too many people wait for the perfect time, the perfect plan, or the perfect feeling before they start—and that's exactly why they stay stuck. The truth is, success is built through small, consistent actions done every day, not through flawless execution once in a while. When you focus on showing up instead of showing off, you build momentum, confidence, and clarity that compound over time. Remember, it's not about doing everything right—it's about doing the right things consistently. Start where you are, stay steady, and let time and repetition do their work.
