515. The "magic pill" is hard work | Trish Evangelista, Babylon CrossFit
Success does not simply fall in your lap.
To be successful, you have to put in a lot of hard work.
Trish Evangelista (Pickford) is a box owner in Long Island, NY who did just that.
After losing her job at the start of covid and diving all in on box ownership, Trish knew she could not fail...and she not only did not fail, today she is thriving.

514. Be nice.
It is that simple, but we know it is not always that easy to implement.
While we touch on a number of things in today's episode from Fern's recent seminar experience with "the poke kid", to programming Strength + Metcon, to answering a couple questions you guys sent us, the core message we want you to hear today is just be kind.
Comment on this post on our Instagram @besthouroftheirday, and tell us about an experience you had, customer service or otherwise, that stopped you in your tracks because of the kindness of another human being.

513. You are not reacting to the problem...you are reacting to the pain caused by the problem
We have been guilty of every struggle we talk about with regards to affiliate ownership, 10x over.
Which is why we so passionately speak on box ownership and why we want to help you.
So often, affiliate owners point to one thing that is causing them the most trouble as a business owner and that is what they need help with.
But is that the actual problem? Or is what you are experiencing pain caused by the real problem at hand?
What is the root cause?
You might think you have the answer, and maybe you do. But one of the biggest challenges box owners must overcome is knowing you having answers for everything...and those answers being wrong.
You need a coach to help guide you into righting your ship.
If you would like those coaches to be us, DM us.

511. If you do not know the points of performance, you are a circus clown
At the very least, it is difficult to consider yourself a coach without knowing the points of performance.
There are not that many anyway..so just know them.
If you just know them, you won't have to waste any mental space trying to recall them while you are coaching. They will always be there at your disposal.
If you want to play this game call coaching, you have to know the rules. And the points of performance are the rules.
Two weeks from today we want you to have memorized the POP's.
Tell us below how you plan to study below.

510. You need intensity to get where you want to go
Intensity, when combined with variance, will naturally modulate. However we should still intentionally turn the knob of intensity.
And intensity is different for everybody.
Keep it simple and do not box it in.

509. It is better to know what you will NOT tolerate than what you will
If you would pay money to actually get rid of a member that you do not like...why are you letting them stay?
That bad apple is not just bothering you. Your members are also bothered. But you are the one in a position to do something about it.
So, remove them from your community. But do so in a respectful way.
Do not burn bridges.
Do not fly off the handle.
Do not take things personally.
Do not make assumptions.
Most importantly, do not tolerate the things you said you never would.

508. Movement is movement, absent of face or name
Faults are black and white. Are their elbows in the right place - yes or no?
There is no "kind of" or "sort of". It is a yes or no question.
Whether you've known your athlete for a long time or you are watching someone move for the very first time...a fault is a fault. Be relentless. Movement is movement, absent of face or name.
Tune in to hear about the life of Seminar Staff Member, Head Coach and Content Director at CrossFit Rife, and former Regional Athlete and Box Owner, Lindsay Andrew.
In this episode she shares her insight a coach along with everything else she's accomplished, and you can't miss it.
Thanks to Get Ahead Productions for another great episode.

507. Small changes, when done consistently over time, yield massive results.
Box Owners seem to want to try and do everything at once, and that will not produce what you hope and might even be detrimental to the long term results you desire.
Start small and create a snowball effect.
It is like Chuck Carswell says at the end of the L1 Seminar weekend: "You just drank from a fire hose, do not go back to your affiliate and try and change everything at once."
It just takes small consistent changes.
Are you willing to put in the work for the long haul to make things happen?
If you do not know where to begin DM us on Instagram. We can and want to help.

506. As a box owner, you are a leader in your community. Act like it.
If you have a gut reaction to something, do not immediately put your thoughts out there for the world to see. Take a minute and actually think about what you are doing.
Why are you having this reaction? Are you making assumptions? Are you taking things personally?
The short of it is: think before you act. Remember that you are a leader in YOUR community and act like it.
