Work On Your Game: Dominate With Mindset, Strategy & Execution

In this episode, I’m talking about what it really takes to win as a professional service entrepreneur. I’m talking to coaches, consultants, lawyers, doctors—anyone who sells their expertise. A lot of people in these spaces are messing up, not because they’re bad at their work, but because they’re focused on the wrong stuff. Your skills aren’t the problem—it's that you're not fully serving what your clients actually want. I’ll break down how to shift that and get your business on track. Show Notes:   [02:49]#1 People skills.  [07:29]#2 You must understand needs that are not specifically related to your expertise or service.  [14:59]#3 Touch.

In this episode, I talk about the war we’re already in — and no, it’s not World War Three. A lot of people ask me if that’s where we’re headed, and I always say, I hope not. But the truth is, we’re already at war — an information war. Most people don’t even realize it, but it’s happening right now. And in many ways, this kind of war is even more dangerous. Show Notes:  [03:48]#1 The war between the people who believe what they are told  vs. people who think critically. [11:11]#2 What the people who accept everything they hear do not understand.

Today’s topic is simple: all politicians are liars. And no, I’m not saying that to insult anyone personally. I’m saying the system in the U.S. is set up in a way that forces politicians to lie—it's built into the job. I’ve talked about politics before, but today I’m going deeper on why this happens and what it means for you. If you live in America, you need to hear this. Show Notes: [03:03]#1 To be successful in politics in the United States of America, you have no choice but to lie. [11:43]#2 The game of many politicians today. [24:22]#3 To be successful for a long time working in the public sector, you’ve got to get really good at spin, which is basically taking a story that is looking one way and make it look another way.

Today I’m talking about the three keys to intelligence. Most people think being smart means knowing a lot, but the real definition is your ability to get, understand, and use knowledge. That changed how I look at intelligence. In this episode, I’ll show you how to become more intelligent based on that definition—not just opinion. If you want to level up your thinking, lock in for this one. Show Notes: [03:38]#1 Way to increase intelligence is you must seek knowledge. [13:18]#2 Know where to look for and where to find the knowledge that you want.  [23:34]#3 You got to apply the knowledge that you found.

Today is part two of my mini-series on why people use logical fallacies. Yesterday, I gave you the backstory, and before that, I did a four-part series on the fallacies themselves.  I explain how people use them to redirect uncomfortable conversations. Most don’t even realize they’re doing it, but you can defend yourself by controlling your emotions. Stay calm and logical to stay in control—reacting emotionally only gives power to others. Show Notes: [02:14]#4 Logical fallacies take conversations that are about topic ABC and turn them into a conversation about topic X, Y, Z.  [16:20]#5 People use logical fallacies all the time when they talk, but they're completely unaware of it, and they go through their entire lifetimes doing it simply because few people are keen to notice it, let alone can someone point it out or explain it.  [20:29]#6 The key to making yourself immune to having logical fallacies used against you, or you using some yourself is that you must first learn to control your emotions and reactions.  [23:08]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3110: The Most Common Logical Fallacies 1667: Dre For President?

In this episode, I’m breaking down how and why people use logical fallacies, even when they don’t realize they’re doing it. This topic is fun for me because once you know what to look for, you’ll see it everywhere—especially when folks argue online or talk about current events. Most people lean on emotion instead of real logic, and that’s where things start falling apart. I’ll show you how to spot these fallacies so you don’t fall for them, and also how to catch yourself before you do the same thing. Let’s get into it. Show Notes: [06:40]#1 A person hears something with which they disagree.  [14:20]#2 Most people's knee jerk reactions to things that they disagree with are often based on their emotions, not their logic or rational thinking. [22:33]#3 Logical fallacies occur when someone is using, as I said, an illogical explanation for their position.
