“Self-control is a form of juggling multiple, opposing goals. If the first goal opposes the other, the second goal is what we call temptation. When people are aware that they have the temptation they are better prepared mentally (and often physically) to resist.” - Dr. Ayelet Fishbach What makes a goal attainable? When does progressing toward a goal make it harder to complete? What elements go into a successful behavior change? How can negative feedback be reframed for progress? How can we overcome our own mental barriers to achieve our goals? The Art of Goal SettingKnow your “why.” Get specific. Be flexible. Stay enthusiastic. Control your environment. Avoid the middle at all costs. Goal setting is not as easy as it seems. A bandwagon resolution made at the onset of the new year is unlikely to be successful. How to set a better, achievable goal? Framing it properly, selecting mentors, and knowing your position in the journey are a few major factors in hitting the target.Dr. Ayelet Fishbach, author of nearly 150 publications in the past two decades, is THE expert on the psychology behind motivation. Her most recent book, “Get it Done: Surprising Lessons from the Science of Motivation” offers a synthesis of her most valuable and actionable lessons — demystifying the ever elusive “goal.”Professor of Behavioral Science and Marketing at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, Ayelet is a recipient of numerous awards and honors; chief among them: Fulbright Scholar, IBM Corporation Faculty Scholar, and the Society of Experimental Social Psychology (SESP) Career Trajectory Award.We cover the psychology behind establishing proper incentives for employees, why feeling good can make all the difference, intrinsic motivation as a lasting catalyst for change, and the willingness to be uncomfortable.Grow Through ItFor high performing attorneys and experts in their field, setbacks can be discouraging. Adopting a growth mindset is essential to completing a goal. When committed to completing a goal, curiosity transforms a potential failure into a “why” that requires further exploration.Key Takeaways: Take control. Always begin with your environment. Remove temptations. Set aside physical and mental space for your goals. Choose wisely. Rarely do we win — or fail — alone. Surround yourself with people who encourage and support you in your goals. Find a community that will keep you accountable. Feel good. The deeper the intrinsic motivation, the more likely a goal is to be reached. Make sure the goal you are striving for is one you truly desire.

"Anyone can pull a trigger. It is very easy to kill somebody. But there is a domain of war that needs to have an unconventional aspect to it. Green Berets thrive when dropped behind enemy lines, in hostile areas, and have to think through the implications of taking the shot... Are we creating a village of potential terrorists? Or can we talk to the village leader? It is riskier. But maybe we can use respect, humor, and rapport. Maybe we can do this instead of pulling the trigger.” - Ryan Hendrickson Why inspired Ryan to write “Tip of the Spear” in the first place? Why will an ethos of “we” always win over “me” on the battlefield and in life? Is the team mentality of “we” something that can be learned? Why is it better to not make the cut than to give up on yourself? Where did Ryan find the resilience to complete Green Berets basic training? Why, after 27 reconstructive surgeries and a qualification for medical retirement, did Ryan decide to go back to Afghanistan? How can empathy build stronger communities? Service and GritStepping on an improvised explosive device, nearly losing his leg, 27 surgeries, and even a medical retirement could not keep Sergeant First Class Ryan Hendrickson from returning to the battlefield. A Green Beret whose determination is matched only by his courage, Ryan has never left a man behind. In over two decades of service, he has earned the Silver Star, four Bronze Stars, a Purple Heart, and an Army Commendation Medal with Valor.His harrowing story is nothing short of extraordinary. While it began as expressive therapy, Ryan’s written account provides an outlet for soldiers and civilians alike. His captivating memoir “Tip of The Spear: The Incredible Story of an Injured Green Beret’s Return to Battle” is as much a recount of military life as an exploration of the battles within.In this episode, Ryan discusses why mental toughness outweighs physical stamina, pushing beyond the edge, overcoming regret, and the power of accountability.Turning Trauma Into Stronger CommunitiesTrauma can never be forgotten or undone. Learning to live with the past is to recognize that we all experience pain as well as to acknowledge our shared humanity. Ryan believes that the real beauty in life comes when we meet these struggles honestly. The pain is a beacon for self improvement and, in turn, a way to connect and empathize with others. Empathy is the key to transforming personal suffering into a space for healing for others and ourselves.“The fact of the matter is you can never undo the past. It will always be there. You can never make something not happen. It will always be a part of you. Use your experience to impact others.” - Ryan HendricksonKey Takeaways: Accept what is. Enjoy life by letting go of expectations. Though life is not fair, we can work for and create the life we want. Don't quit. Encountering great obstacles may seem to complicate life. However, it is the simplicity in choosing to continue that carries us through the challenge. Help others. We all experience hardship. Helping others is the ultimate salve for life’s wounds.

"On November 15th, 1999, I walked out of prison with a GED and a goal. I realized being 15 was tough, no matter where you came from. So my philosophy became: if you call me, I'll show up. Let me show you how to heal yourself internally and deal with your trauma so you can have a great life. And I’ve been showing up for 22 years.” - Andre NormanIn this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Andre Norman walks Michael Mogill through the roots of his past trauma and how it led him down a violent path, which eventually got Andre sentenced to over 100 years in prison. While serving time, an epiphany brought him out from behind bars and into Harvard University.

"If you've got problems in your organization, almost always, you've created them. You get the employees you deserve, and you get the culture you deserve.” - Liz Wiseman What is a high-impact player? What sets these peak performers apart? How can organizations adopt the mindsets and behaviors of high-impact players? How can law firms cultivate an agile and fluid team of leaders? Should leaders do dry-runs of problems in preparation for actual disaster? How can law firms recruit dream teams of high-impact players? Challenge a Team and Watch Them GrowPeople are hard-wired for contribution. An underutilized team is an exhausted, underperforming team. Challenge that same team and ask them to stretch in a safe, supportive environment and they will contribute everything they have — feeling exhilarated in the process. This is what Liz Wiseman found after a decade of researching the best (and the worst) leaders in the world.In her latest book, “Impact Players: How to Take the Lead, Pay Bigger, and Multiply Your Impact,” Liz answers the question: Why do some people play at their full potential while others remain underutilized? Her comprehensive research of 170 companies decodes the mindset and behavior of high-impact performers and explains how peak performance is available to everyone.Teaching Leadership to the World’s Top Business LeadersLiz Wiseman is a New York Times and Wall Street Journal best-selling author, CEO of the Wiseman Group, and masterful researcher. Liz’s work — anchored in leadership and collective intelligence — has earned her recognition as a top leadership thinker in the world. A frequent guest lecturer at BYU and Stanford University, she often writes for Harvard Business Review and Fortune. An executive advisor who teaches leadership, her recent clients include Apple, AT&T, Disney, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Nike, Salesforce, Tesla, and Twitter.In this episode, Liz discusses the five situations that set high-impact players apart and how teams can adopt the behavior. We also cover what law firms can do to attract an all-star team of top-performing talent.Attract Talent from WithinFor Liz, attracting and retaining the best talent for your law firm begins with great leadership, best described in two and a half words:“Safety and Stretch. The ‘and’ is the half. The best leaders create an environment of safety where people can speak the truth. They have the permission to step up and lead. Even when nobody has anointed them a leader, they feel safe.” - Liz WisemanGreat contributors want to work with great leaders. But what should a firm look for in a potential high-performing candidate? Liz recommends hiring people with the least coachable essentials: a sense of agency, willingness to learn, and informal orientation toward hierarchy. The rest can be developed.Key Takeaways: Communicate priorities. Successful leaders share the company agenda so that team members feel empowered to step beyond their role and do the job that needs to be done. Tap into empathy. We all serve someone. Lawyers serve clients. Ask how you can make their lives easier. Anticipate problems. Permissive leaders create equity in their firm when teams are allowed to take ownership of a problem.

Game changing marketers are connectors at heart. They cast aside the hunt for the lowest cost-per-click and ROI in exchange for genuine relationships. They make an individual feel seen and understood while talking to thousands at once.Just as trial attorneys invest in pre-trial to maximize the value of the case, elite marketing campaigns are treated as an asset — invested generously. It is in the spirit of wise investments that we bring you some of the best marketing insights that challenge convention and spearhead innovation.Speed and ConsistencyImperfect consistency will win every time. Digital marketing moves at warp speed. To stay relevant requires nimble execution. Billy Gene Shaw is consistent in both delivery and innovation by producing daily digital content.If you want your law firm to be number one, you have to say it — and say it often to the people you want to hear it.Understand Your SuperpowerDo one thing and do it well. Seth Godin posits that to become extraordinary, attorneys have to pick a focus and increase the quality of cases. Placing constraints on a law firm creates a box with edges that can be leaned into — it is in pushing these specific boundaries that innovation is possible.Lawyers do not need to serve everyone to be successful. Pat Flynn discusses the merits of hyper-focusing existing community members and converting them into superfans.Quality Will Draw QuantityGreat content gives the client value. It demonstrates an understanding of their unique challenges and that you — and you alone — can solve them. But simply listing a law firm's success stats and data won't cut it. Ryan Deiss spent over $15 million on testing marketing strategies to understand what works. He knows that storytelling will win every time. Cost-per-click is a stable commodity. The competitive edge comes not from hacks or tricks, but from following up with the lead and turning a prospect into a client.In this episode Billy Gene Shaw on crafting a strong narrative and sharing it with your audience. Seth Godin on shifting to a mindset of collaboration and quality audiences. Ryan Deiss on marketing as the through line of every successful business.

It’s easy to think of elite athletes as physical outliers, genetic anomalies who are destined for success. But of course, just because you have the tools doesn’t mean you can put it all together.The greatest athletes in any sport aren’t the most physically gifted; they’re the ones who transcended their physical limitations and became something more. Training, mental fortitude, problem solving, poise under pressure — athletes have myriad skills that have been forged in the crucible of competition. And these skills don’t just apply to sports. They’re transferable to the courtroom and the law office.To that end, we’re bringing you the best insights from our conversations with four of the world’s most elite athletes so that you can step up your performance and make your career elite.It’s All About PreparationFor all these athletes, the wins and records stem from training. But it’s not just about hitting the gym; it’s the mentality you bring to that practice. George Foreman III never lost a professional fight, in part because he challenged himself in training and took his losses there. By the time he got in the ring, the bout was simple compared to what he had overcome before.For attorneys, so much of the outcome is determined before you set foot in the courtroom. The game is when you show how well you’ve prepared.Edging the Competition in the DetailsEach of these athletes also carries incredible competitive spirit. But to turn success into dominance, you can’t just rely on best practices — that’s what Mat Fraser found. At the elite levels of CrossFit, everybody was training hard. To win five titles in a row, Mat had to find the 1% gains on the fringes — perfecting his nutrition, his sleep, his travel. Stacking these small advantages gave him an edge on competition that led to sustained excellence.Just Keep PushingAnd just like law, reaching new heights involves navigating the low points. In their journeys, Mark Beaumont and James Lawrence pushed themselves to the limit. They fought through injuries, exhaustion, and the elements. As they persevered, they found they had reserves of strength they didn’t even know about. When James reached his goal of 100 triathlons in 100 days, he ran another, just to show that you can always do one more. Mental toughness isn’t simply a cliche. It’s a skill, cultivated by consistently challenging yourself.There’s so much for game-changers to learn from these athletes. Their competitive spirit is parallel to some of the top attorneys in the field, as is their relentless drive to be great. So pop in your earbuds, click play, and start your training. No montage necessary.In this episode: George Foreman III on taking losses in preparation to avoid them when it counts Mark Beaumont on how to persevere when you’re at your lowest Mat Fraser on the 1% gains that separate you at an elite level James Lawrence on developing and using your support system Links and Resources The Game Changing Attorney Podcast Michael Mogill Facebook Michael Mogill Twitter Michael Mogill Instagram Michael Mogill LinkedIn Crisp Website Crisp Facebook Crisp Twitter Crisp Instagram Crisp LinkedIn George Foreman III - Episode 34 of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast Mark Beaumont - Episode 60 of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast Mat Fraser - Episode 63 of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast James Lawrence - Episode 73 of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast

"A lot of people have pretty outrageous lifestyles (out of balance), and then they try and fix it with what I call self-soothing. Self-soothing is, ‘How can I numb, put on hold for a while, or procrastinate? How can I take a break before I go back to the same world that caused me pain?’ Self-care is, ‘How do I have daily habits and dedications that keep my energy supply high, that keep me restored and renewed, not just soothed or numbed?’” - Cy Wakeman What’s behind the title of Cy’s new book, Life’s Messy, Live Happy? How do we make our own suffering worse? What are the three questions we should ask ourselves to keep our egos in check? How should we approach the practice of gratitude? What is over-giving, and why should we be cautious of it? Choose How To FeelLife is full of challenges. But while we might not have a say in the experiences we encounter, what few of us realize is that we actually have a choice in how we feel about those situations. Unfortunately, choosing how we respond to certain events isn’t always as easy as flipping a switch. It can take some practice. Thankfully, Cy Wakeman knows a thing or two about reprogramming our reactions.Cy Wakeman is a drama researcher and leadership consultant whose expertise (cultivated over a 25-year career) has helped to transform numerous teams in Fortune 100 companies for the better. Voted the #1 leadership professional in 2021, Cy has distilled her knowledge into her newest book, *Life's Messy, Live Happy,* to help us all live lives with less suffering.In this episode, Cy talks us through some of the ways we can change our perspective on those inevitable setbacks to help us live happier and more productive lives. We also discuss how changing our vocabulary can have a drastic impact on our outlook, and we’ll learn how most of our suffering comes from within.Turn “Why We Can’t” into “How We Can”When a wrench gets thrown in our plans, many of us naturally assume that whatever we were trying to achieve can no longer be done. We see this a lot in our workplaces: someone calls in sick, and suddenly the deadline you were all working to hit can’t be achieved. But by simply reframing our language during these situations, we can actually overcome these obstacles more often than not.Cy tells us all about the power that changing our vocabulary can have and explains how considering other perspectives in times of adversity can show us alternate paths to success. We also dive into what some of the keywords are that can help us find opportunity and hope when it seems like the world is working against us.Key takeaways: Stop naming things too soon. We’re often too quick to label situations as good or bad without taking the time to consider whether they present opportunities for personal growth. Don’t tell yourself fictional narratives. Our brains naturally jump to worst-case scenarios, so take a moment to ask yourself what is real and what is imaginary when worries kick in. Learn to self-care. When stresses occur, look for ways to improve your situation rather than looking for escapes as a temporary fix for a problem.

"We know from the Betty Ford Hazelton study that lawyers suffer from alcohol use disorder at a rate almost twice the general public. We know if you're a millennial lawyer, it’s over a third with alcohol use disorder. We are a profession in crisis from that standpoint in terms of mental health. And it's hard to be a game-changing lawyer and it's hard to lead when we're not taking care of our own mental health struggles.” - Brian Cuban What led to Brian Cuban’s struggle with eating disorders and addiction? What caused Brian to eventually seek help? Why did Brian decide to share his story so publicly? What resources are there for lawyers struggling with addiction? How can you build a compassionate community in the legal industry? The Road to RecoveryBeing a lawyer is stressful: long hours, high stakes situations, the threat of losing cases. As an attorney, people’s lives and potentially millions of dollars depend on you. Many lawyers turn to substances to help them handle that stress. That’s the message that Brian Cuban is here to share through his own personal struggle with addiction and mental health.Brian, brother of billionaire owner of the Dallas Mavericks Mark Cuban, is an attorney and addiction recovery advocate. He’s the author of “The Addicted Lawyer,” which unflinchingly recounts his own addiction to alcohol and cocaine. Brian knows firsthand the vicious cycles of substance abuse and that even high-functioning lawyers might be falling apart inside.On this special episode, we hear about Brian’s long road to recovery, from his fight with body dysmorphia and eating disorders to addiction’s rock bottom, and how he eventually turned his life around.An At-Risk PopulationOne reason that Brian chose to become such a vocal advocate is that he didn’t see any recovery content geared towards lawyers — but the data shows that those in the legal profession are more likely to struggle with addiction than the general population.Plus, the trials of recovery can present unique challenges to attorneys. For instance, one maxim Brian preaches is vulnerability. But that openness is given a negative connotation in law school and training. “We learn to take advantage of vulnerability on the witness stand or in the mediation room or wherever it is,” he says. “You look for weakness, but what we don't look for is our humanity.”This is why Brian is so brutally honest about his own story. As he puts it, “I am an expert in my journey, nothing more...If you can take some commonality and apply that to yourself in taking a positive step, that is wonderful.”Key takeaways: You can’t love somebody enough to make them recover. They have to be ready to take that step on their own. Vulnerability is key. Being honest with yourself and others is an important piece of recovery. Create a compassionate community. Check in on your colleagues. You can’t be there for them if you don’t know that they’re struggling.

"You gotta be persistent and relentless. I don't know that there's anybody in this world that things are just going to be given to. People aren't going to go out of their way to help you and make your life easy. You're going to have to take agency over yourself and over your own decisions and say, ‘I'm going to help make this happen.’” - Michael Mogill How did Michael go from being broke to founding and growing a $40 million business? What qualities make a great leader? How do you make effective decisions on big issues? Where does Michael’s competitive streak come from? How can impatience be a good thing? Michael Mogill: The Game ChangerMichael Mogill is the Founder and CEO of Crisp. What began as a video production company soon evolved to meet the changing needs of deserving law firm owners: from relentless digital marketing to transformational growth coaching that builds strong business foundations for law firms around the country. Michael and the Crisp team continued to innovate, founding the Game Changers Summit (the largest law firm growth conference on earth), hosting the #1 podcast for legal market leaders, and even authoring the go-to guide on law firm transformation in his best-seller, “The Game Changing Attorney.”In this super special episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael takes a turn in the hot seat as his wife (and Crisp’s Head of Coaching Strategy) Jessica Mogill dives into what it is that makes Michael tick. They’ll explore which qualities Michael values as a leader, how he copes with the pressures of running such a large organization, and we’ll finally find out what Michael thinks it takes to be a game changer.First-Class Leader, Terrible EmployeeSome of the qualities that make great innovators and entrepreneurs simply don’t gel with most employers’ idea of the model employee. Questioning the status quo and making radical decisions might get you ahead of the competition when you’re running your own business, but they might get you fired if you’re working for someone else.Michael shares how his early experiences as an employee helped to shape him into the leader he is today. He details how a waiting job kickstarted his appetite for competition, and he discusses what he believes to be some of the core tenets of a great boss, such as being the first one in and the last one out and ensuring that everyone else has been taken care of before taking care of yourself.Key takeaways: The worst decision is to delay a decision. Because even making the wrong choice can point you in the right direction. Build from a position of honesty. Creating a business based on tricks and shortcuts might create short-term growth, but will damage your long-term reputation. Trust in others. You can’t scale yourself alongside your business, so allow yourself to trust your team and delegate to others.
