272: Evan Carmichael - What's Your One Word?

If you were to pick one word to represent your authentic self, what would it be? What does your story add to your competitive advantage in the world of entrepreneurship? Evan Carmichael joins us today to discuss the art of finding your one word, and the powerful advantages behind knowing your word. Evan Carmichael is the author of "Your One Word: the Powerful Secret to Creating a Business and Life that Matter." Evan has had a variety of jobs over the last 20 years, from building and selling a biotech software company, to now being the founder and owner of EvanCarmichael.com, a website for entrepreneurs alike! WARRIOR OF Believe "Your one word and core value is a constant in your life." -Evan Carmichael Highlights - Your competitive advantage as an entrepreneur is recognizing your authentic story and self. What makes you different, makes you marketable. Once you figure out what your one word is, it will begin to feel more and more right over time. Your one word and core value is a constant in your life. These will always be important to you. If your word doesn't come immediately, that's okay! It can take awhile to find what word really feels right for you. In order to find your word, it is highly encouraged to ask yourself what makes you happy. Write down a list of your goals in order to have a clear vision of the future to come. Book some you time to ask yourself the questions: "is this who I am and who I always will be?" Your one word is so meaningful, that it could become the culture of your business.

271: Steve Gilliland - How to Hide your Goat

Do you find others pushing your buttons easily, or "getting your goat?" Steve Gilliland joins us today to discuss what it means to "find your goat," and address the characteristics within ourselves that let others push our buttons. It's time to stop wasting energy on daily annoyances and focus on becoming more productive through self management. Steve Gilliland is a member of the speakers hall of fame, speaking in all 50 states and 15 countries, over the course of 17 years! Steve has written four books, including one on today's topic of discussion "Hide Your Goat." Steve believes when we are all purpose driven, not process driven, we make a greater difference. WARRIOR OF Perspective "If we all make the pie bigger, everybody gets a slice." -Steve Gilliland Highlights - You have to discover your own goat and what that means in regards to yourself. In order to ease someone "getting your goat," try understanding their perspective. Remember: it's not just about you. "None of us is as smart as all of us." When handling a negative situation, it begins with you. Worrying does not let you focus on what is happening now. Worrying is a very destructive behavior; you cannot enjoy the moment if you are spending it worrying. Teach yourself to not listen to skeptics, and instead be content with who and what you are. Your attitude is contagious. Is your attitude worth catching?

269: Kevin Johnson - The Entrepreneurial Mind and How to Achieve That Way of Thinking

Being an entrepreneur is something many dream of, but few achieve. In order to be an entrepreneur, you need to seek risk and think outside the box, when others around you may be seeking refuge. How do we get to the point of stepping outside the lines, and becoming our own boss? According to Kevin, it's all a way of thinking. Kevin Johnson is president of Johnson Media Inc. and a serial entrepreneurs. Kevin has several years experience leading his multi million dollar marketing and communications company. He has appeared on ABC's Good Morning America, CBS, Oprah radio, and in Forbes, New York Times, Fast Company, and many more! Kevin wrote "The Entrepreneurial Mind," which has been a number one best seller on Amazon since it's launch in 2013. WARRIOR OF SPIRIT "The ultimate business plan is to stick to it." -Kevin Johnson Highlights - It takes an average of 11 years to reach the million dollar mark of revenue. When you think it's time to give up, often most success is right around the corner The fear of having the structure or the burden of a 9-5 was one of Kevin's biggest motivators. Knowing where you are, is so important to knowing where you're going to end up. You learn the more you put in your business, the more you will reap the benefits. You have to focus on the execution once you have an idea. Don't be afraid to ask for what you want. It can be easy to take advantage of your flexibility of an entrepreneur -- don't let them! Become a pleasant pest -- kill them with kindness!

268: Andy Molinsky - Taking the Big Leap Isn't The Only Option You Have

It's easy to become stagnant in our comfort zones. Many of us never leave, and adapt habits, tasks, and jobs based on our default personalities. What if I told you stepping outside of your comfort zone didn't take one big leap? You can still create a life that is ever expanding, with new strategies and confidence building by taking smaller steps and creating a sense of conviction. Andy Molinsky joins us today to tell us how. Andy Molinsky is a professor of organizational behavior and psychology at Brandeis University. He regularly writes for the Harvard Business Review and has been featured in the Economist, Fast Company, The Financial Times, The Boston Globe, NPR, and the Voice of America. He has written "The Global Dexterity," which received the Axiom Award for best business book and has been used widely in organizations across the globe! Kevin's most recent book is "Reach: A New Strategy to help You Reach Outside Your Comfort Zone, Rise to the Challenge, and Build Confidence." WARRIOR OF COURAGE "Taking the big leap isn't the only option you have." -Andy Molinsky Highlights - Always follow your passion and what you believe and love to do. No success in business is ever worth your reputation. It is hard to do things that make us anxious, even if they contribute to our growth. We gravitate towards habits, jobs, or tasks that align with our default personalities. There are a myriad of ways that you can customize the situation you are in. People can be afraid that others won't like this new version of themselves -- you have to let that go. Sometimes the reason for being stuck in our comfort zone is a deep fear of others not liking us. Acknowledge your small wins and milestones.

267: Talking Stick- From Personalized to Individualized

There's a trend going on in business that you're going to want to pay attention to. It's a shift from being personalized to individualized. Meaning, it's no longer good enough to simply personalize things. To be an effective marketer in the future, it's going to require you treat your audience as the individuals they are. You're going to have to market to the specific behaviors, personalities, and buying patterns of those you want to reach.

266: Len Sherman- If You're in a Dogfight, Become a Cat. Do the Unexpected.

The world of business is more competitive than it has ever been. As we know, it is one thing to do your business well, but a completely different thing to stand out and compete against all your other competitors in our own specific industries. It's time to see opportunities in what may be viewed as a "challenging industry" and begin standing out. Len Sherman joins us today to discuss staying ahead in the marketplace, and what way of thinking it takes to be successful in your field. Lee is an executive and residence and adjunct professor at Columbia Business School, with over 40 years of experience in the business and teaching industry. Lee currently teaches in the MBA, where he has received the Dean's Award. Prior to his educational experiences, he was an employee at Accenture, and served as a board member for five technology based start ups. Lee is the author of his current book, "If You're in a Dogfight, Think Like a Cat." THE PILOT WARRIOR "If you're in a dogfight, become a cat!" -Len Sherman Highlights - The difference between a good idea and a great idea is very often timing. If the market isn't ready for your great idea, it's ok, stay with it and come back later. There's a tremendous amount of time at companies spent looking over their shoulder at their competitors. This can cause them to lose sight. Sometimes it takes an entrepreneur to come in and recognize the gap in the marketplace in order for it to be fixed, or change. The pressure to constantly renew and refresh a product line is never going to go away. What makes you different makes you marketable. TRY NEW THINGS! It could really help your business. Be a cat in a dogfight. Be totally different than everybody else. If you're not improving your business every day, you are falling behind.

265: Klyn Elsbury- The Time is Now To Be All In With Your Life!

Warriors, we often forget the time we have on this earth is limited. We don't all live life on a day to day basis, doing exactly what we want to do, all while pursuing our dreams. We say we can tomorrow, or take advantage of the idea that tomorrow will offer us the same opportunities we had today. Let's not wait. Kyln Elsbury joins us to remind us that the time is now. Kyln Elsbury is the co-owner of Landmark Makers, a high class recruiting services firm, and an exceptional and inspiring entrepreneur. In 2014 after being forced to quit her professional career in recruiting due to excessive hospitalization, with complications of cystic fibrosis, Kyln was confined to a wheelchair, with her lungs working at only 40%. After one hospital stay in particular, Kyln decided to take a 6 week road trip across the country, to visit relatives and friends she was not sure she would be able to see again. From these experiences she began to write her book, "I am: The Untold Story of Success," which focusses on what it means to live as if every day is your last, and what it means to create a highly impactful legacy. WARRIOR OF DISMISSAL "Everything is how you interpret it" -Klyn Elsbury Highlights - Kyln see's her story as she feels in the blank, just like everybody else can. "I am ___, the Untold Story of Success." We know our lives through the vision that we see it. If you're waking up with a negative attitude, you made choices along the way to get you there. You can make opposite choices to get you where you want to go. Your attitude is a choice. You have to make a conscious choice over your attitude. You can't deny the power of mindset in the law of attraction Holding ego meetings can be essential to future growth. Admit when you're wrong. Humility actually improves your self esteem. It makes you feel better as a person for being able to own up to your wrongs. We live under a false premise that we have all the time in the world.

263: Rhett Power- How Small Action Steps Lead to Big Changes

Forming good habits is not nearly as easy as it sounds. So often, we set high goals for ourselves and then are quickly discouraged when we can't immediately meet them. Instead of making huge, overwhelming goals, we can instead create small action steps to take every day and re-make our habits. Rhett Power knows just what it means to make changes and find success, one day at a time. Rhett Power co-founded of Wild Creations toy company in 2007. By 2010 Wild Creations was the fastest growing business in South Carolina, and named Blue Ribbon Top 75 US Company by the US Chamber of Commerce. The Wild Creations team has won over 40 toy innovation awards. In 2015 Rhett was named one of world's top business bloggers. He is also an international speaker, an executive coach, a writer for Inc. and Success Magazines, and the author of the Entrepreneur's Book of Actions and One Million Frogs, both about his experiences founding and running companies. THE MOTHER WARRIOR "I think most of our enemies are ourselves."-Rhett Power Highlights - Small successes build on themselves and are a motivator to keep working through challenges. Learn to say no with a smile. Write your passions down in a personal mission statement. Small habits and continuous exercises can keep you from falling back into the same negative cycle. Don't let go of your positive action steps. Take time to work on the business, not at the business. When you go into something with an exit strategy, you go in thinking about failure. People have to know you need help before they show up to lend a hand. Don't be too proud to say you're struggling. Don't let your mood control you. Control your mood. Have someone in your life who can pull your head out of the business and keep you mentally healthy.
