688. The 4 Primary Wealth Targets
Most people say they want to be wealthy. Very few can define what wealth actually means. In today's episode, Brian breaks down the real game of wealth—not the internet version, not the "nice house and big income" version—the freedom version. The version where you can do what you want, when you want, with who you want… and actually afford to live that way. Brian walks through the four numbers every financially free person knows cold: • Cash reserves — your financial shock absorbers. • Net worth — your long-term scoreboard. • Passive income — the freedom money. • Your retirement number — the math that tells the truth. This is a straight-line, zero-fluff framework that will show you exactly where you stand and exactly what to do next. Because wealth isn't a vibe. It's math. And once you understand the equations, you finally take control of the game. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

686. The Price of Ambition
If you've ever ended a strong week feeling nauseous from pressure instead of proud of your progress, this episode is for you. Brian unpacks a late-night message from a young, high-achieving entrepreneur who admitted he constantly feels like he's "not doing enough." Brian knows that feeling well and shares how unchecked ambition can quietly turn into a prison. Through stories from his early career -- 2 a.m. work sessions, panic on his honeymoon, stress-induced symptoms --Brian explains why many high performers confuse exhaustion with success. And more importantly, how to break that cycle. He lays out three shifts every ambitious builder must make: Prioritize your life with intention, become the next version of yourself, and learn to say no so you can protect your peace. Brian closes with three questions you need to answer tonight -- questions that pull you out of survival mode and into aligned, sustainable growth. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

684. Shut Your Mouth (and Sleep Better)
You can spend thousands on sleep supplements, fancy mattresses, or wearables — but if you're breathing wrong while you sleep, none of it matters. In this episode, Brian Gubernick breaks down a simple, almost ridiculous-sounding hack that's made a measurable difference in his performance: mouth taping. Yep — taping your mouth shut before bed. It's not a TikTok stunt. It's science-backed. By training your body to breathe through your nose, you can improve recovery, hydration, heart rate variability, and morning energy. Brian shares his personal data, explains the research behind nasal breathing, and reminds us that sometimes the biggest performance gains come from the smallest tweaks. Because when you change how you breathe, you change how you sleep. And when you change how you sleep, you change how you perform. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

683. The Problem Was Never the Problem
Dr. Wayne Dyer once said, "Change the way you look at things, and the things you look at change." Sounds simple, until you actually live it. In today's episode, Brian Gubernick breaks down how one shift in perspective can completely rewrite your outcomes. From Slack turning a failed video game into a $27B business, to Netflix reframing DVDs into digital dominance, to Airbnb transforming air mattresses into a global hospitality movement -- every major breakthrough starts with a new lens. Brian unpacks how your brain's filters -- your experiences, beliefs, and expectations -- quietly shape what you see and what you miss. And more importantly, how to train your Reticular Activating System (RAS) to spot opportunity instead of obstacles. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

682. Be Like Bezos - Make the Call at 70%
High performers crave clarity. We want the full picture before we move — but in business and life, waiting for 100% certainty is often just a way of stalling. In this episode, Brian unpacks Jeff Bezos' "70% Rule" from his 2017 Amazon shareholder letter — the idea that most decisions should be made with about 70% of the information you wish you had. You'll learn the difference between one-way doors (irreversible decisions) and two-way doors (reversible ones), and why the best leaders operate with decision velocity — acting fast, learning faster, and compounding progress over time. If you're sitting on a decision right now, this episode will push you to label it, make the call, and move forward. Because perfect information doesn't make you smarter — it makes you slower. Progress belongs to the decisive. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

679. The Myth of Balance and the Power of Counterbalance
Everyone loves to talk about "work-life balance." Calendar hacks. Perfect routines. Equal attention to everything that matters. Sounds enlightened, right? Except it's a lie. In today's episode, Brian pulls a powerful lesson from one of the most impactful books ever written: The ONE Thing by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan. The book demolishes the idea that balance is something you maintain. The truth? Balance is a myth… and chasing it is slowing you down. Achieving extraordinary results requires a season of focused imbalance — going all in on the thing that matters most. But there's a catch: you must counterbalance. Life isn't a scale aiming for stillness; it's a pendulum in constant motion. Lean into your big goals — scaling a business, crushing a training block, making a major move — and then swing the energy back before something breaks. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.
