Pushing Boundaries: The Challenges of Operating Outside Your Natural Personality Style | Finding...
In this episode, we dive into the question of whether someone can operate in a personality style that's not their natural style over an extended period of time. Initially, I believed that doing so would inevitably lead to burnout. However, upon further reflection, I've come to realize that it is indeed possible to temporarily adopt a different personality style if the people around you are accommodating.
When those around you allow and support you to be that type of person, it becomes much more manageable to operate outside of your natural style, even if it clashes with others. However, it's important to note that in the long run, constantly functioning in a style that is not inherent to you will drain your energy and make sustainability nearly impossible.
That being said, if those around you are willing to acquiesce and follow your lead, it becomes much more feasible to take on a different personality style for a shorter period. For example, if you're naturally supportive and giving but have to temporarily operate in a more assertive and demanding role, it can be done. However, if you consistently face conflict and opposition from individuals with strong personalities, it won't lead to long-term success.
Therefore, it is crucial to have a supportive environment that allows you to operate in the necessary style. If those around you aren't supportive, navigating the situation can be challenging. Nevertheless, with the right support, it's possible to adapt and produce good work in a different personality style than your natural one.

Tuning Out the Noise: Finding Calm in a Chaotic World | Finding the NEXTLevel
In this thought-provoking episode, I delve into the topic of noise that engulfs our society today. While many may dismiss certain things, like Switchfoot's music, as mere noise, I personally find solace in their melodies. Nevertheless, the central issue at hand is the overwhelming amount of noise that surrounds us. From the incessant stream of news and weather updates to the influence of social media and the constant scrolling, it can feel as though we are immersed in a never-ending cacophony. At times, I even question whether my own podcast merely contributes to this collective noise or if it serves a more significant purpose.
If you find yourself suffocating under the weight of this noise, if you struggle to find moments of tranquility or repose, if your mind is consumed by stress and you are constantly racing against time, then I implore you to silence this noise. Your well-being takes precedence over the number of listeners my podcast obtains. I do not want this podcast to be another source of noise in your life. Instead, I want you to reflect on the various sources of noise that surround you - the websites you frequent, the social media groups you engage with - and consider eliminating certain forms of noise, even if it means excluding my podcast. I wholeheartedly support that decision. Instead, redirect your focus towards embracing a calmer, more purposeful existence.

DISC 101: Exploring the Fundamentals of Motor, Compass, and Better Relationships | Finding the...
In this episode, we're diving into the fundamentals of understanding people better through the lens of personality assessments. We explore how to apply the DISC model in everyday life to discern a person's motor (whether they are fast-paced or slow-paced) and their compass (whether they are people-oriented or task-oriented). By asking ourselves simple questions about someone's behavior and communication style, we can gain insights into their perspective and relate to them more effectively. Whether someone is outgoing or reserved, and whether they prioritize people or tasks, can provide a clear picture of how they think, feel, and act. Implementing these basic concepts can enhance our relationships and increase our understanding of others. Additionally, we remind listeners about the upcoming Solo Entrepreneur Growth and Well-being Conference, highlighting various topics from content creation to tech support and encouraging participation. The event promises valuable insights from multiple speakers and networking opportunities, all free for attendees. Finally, we reiterate our commitment to helping listeners improve their relationships and empower them to do good work.

The Essential Rules for Engagement: Building Strong Relationships | Finding the NEXTLevel
In this part of our conversation, we delve into the rules of engagement that I learned from one of my esteemed mentors. These rules are invaluable in helping us show up fully in every interaction, particularly when it comes to developing strong client relationships.
The first rule that I learned is to lead with love. This emphasizes the importance of approaching others with empathy and compassion, treating them as we would want to be treated ourselves. By embracing this mindset, we can create a positive and supportive environment that fosters trust and connection.
The second rule is to be curious first and critical second. This encourages us to approach conversations and disagreements with an open mind, seeking to understand the perspectives of others before passing judgment. By doing so, we can foster meaningful dialogue and build bridges of understanding.
Next, we explore the concept of being a learner rather than a knower. This rule reminds us to always remain humble and open to new knowledge. No matter how experienced or knowledgeable we may be, there is always room to learn and grow. By adopting a learner's mindset, we can continuously improve ourselves and stay receptive to new ideas.
The fourth rule highlights the importance of finding the gift or lesson in every situation. Even when faced with challenges or setbacks, there is always an opportunity for growth and learning. By maintaining a positive outlook and looking for the lessons, we can transform difficult situations into valuable experiences.
Moving on to the fifth rule, we discuss the practice of full presence listening. This involves giving our undivided attention to others during conversations, actively engaging in what they have to say. By eliminating distractions and truly listening, we can foster deeper connections and understand people on a more profound level.
The sixth rule encourages us to share wisdom rather than merely dispensing good advice. This means drawing from our own experiences and offering insights that have been truly earned. By sharing our wisdom with others, we can provide valuable guidance and help them navigate their own journeys.
The seventh rule emphasizes the importance of win-win interactions or no deal at all. When engaging with others, it is crucial to seek mutual benefit and strive for outcomes that satisfy everyone involved. By focusing on win-win scenarios, we can build stronger relationships and foster a spirit of collaboration.
Lastly, we explore the eighth rule, which revolves around honoring immersion. This means eliminating distractions and fully immersing ourselves in the present moment, whether it be during conversations or in our work. By practicing mindfulness and being fully present, we can make the most of each experience and cultivate a deeper sense of fulfillment.
In conclusion, remembering and embodying these rules of engagement can greatly enhance our interactions and relationships with others. By leading with love, embracing curiosity, staying open to learning, finding the lessons in every situation, practicing full presence listening, sharing wisdom, seeking win-win outcomes, and honoring immersion, we can create meaningful connections and contribute to a more harmonious world.

Stop Doing This NOW! | Finding the NEXTLevel
In this episode, we delve into the challenges of being overwhelmed by various responsibilities and how to find focus amidst the chaos. As the main speaker, I share my personal experiences of running a construction business, coaching and consulting, managing a farm, and owning a cleaning business. The weight of these multiple ventures has left me feeling overwhelmed and scattered. To visually represent this struggle, I sent out an email with an image depicting the scattered energy.
Recognizing the importance of consciously managing these diverse responsibilities, I discuss the need to clear out the chaos and maintain focus. This may even involve the difficult decision of eliminating a business that we enjoy and excel at. However, this sacrifice is necessary for finding clarity and purpose in our pursuits.
To address these challenges and provide support to fellow solo entrepreneurs facing similar struggles, we have organized the Solo Entrepreneur Growth and Well-being Conference. This conference, taking place next week, features an array of influential speakers who will share their insights and strategies for finding focus amidst the overwhelm.
During the conference, I will be delivering a talk focused on the power of purpose and shifting energy towards moving in one clear direction. By attending this event, solo entrepreneurs can gain valuable knowledge and guidance to help them navigate their own journeys.
Register today and join us in this transformative event that promises to provide the tools and inspiration needed to achieve growth and well-being as a solo entrepreneur.

Flipping the Script: Is the "Soundtrack" True, Helpful, or Kind? | Finding the NEXTLevel
In this episode, we delve into John Acuff's book, which explores the impact of the soundtracks we play in our minds. These soundtracks directly influence our actions and achievements in life. The objective of the book is to shift these soundtracks from holding us back to supporting us in achieving our goals. To determine whether a soundtrack is worth keeping or discarding, we are encouraged to ask three important questions.
The first question we should ask ourselves is, "Is it true?" Often, we find ourselves believing things that are not entirely true or are completely false. These beliefs may arise from past experiences or long-held narratives. It is crucial for us to critically examine these soundtracks and assess their truthfulness.
The second question to consider is, "Is it helpful?" Even if a soundtrack may not be entirely true, it might still serve a purpose or add value in specific situations. However, we must evaluate whether it contributes positively to our lives. For instance, someone not liking us may be true, but we need to question whether it genuinely helps our happiness and progress.
The final question we need to ask ourselves is, "Is it kind?" We need to determine whether the soundtrack we are listening to is kind and supportive towards ourselves. Does it make us feel better and encourage us, or does it bring us down? Our self-talk plays a significant role in influencing the way we live and what we achieve. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that our soundtracks are kind and supportive.
Ultimately, the beliefs we hold and the things we tell ourselves shape our lives and determine our achievements. That is why we should continually evaluate our soundtracks, questioning whether they are true, helpful, and kind. By doing so, we can replace negative patterns with positive and empowering thoughts that support our growth and success.

"And" VS "But" | Finding the NEXTLevel
In this bonus episode, we dive into the power of words and how a simple change in our language can have a profound impact on our conversations, relationships, and overall worldview. Today, we specifically explore the difference between using the words "and" and "but" in our everyday interactions.
Language is a remarkable tool that can either create bridges or build barriers in our interactions with others. By replacing the word "but" with "and," we can create bridges that promote what we are pursuing rather than creating opposition.
The word "but" often implies contradiction or disagreement, while "and" allows us to build upon someone else's ideas, acknowledging their value and suggesting enhancements. By using "and," we are able to connect ideas that may not have coexisted before, encouraging collaboration, open-mindedness, and constructive dialogue.
Just imagine the potential impact this small linguistic shift could have on our lives and the world. By replacing "but" with "and," we can foster stronger connections, find common ground, and create solutions that benefit everyone.
In personal relationships, using "and" instead of "but" allows us to express our needs without creating a cutoff or barrier. It promotes understanding, empathy, and the coexistence of multiple perspectives. While there may still be situations where "but" is appropriate, being mindful of when to use "and" can bring grace and respect to our conversations, making them flow more smoothly.
So, let's challenge ourselves to consider using "and" instead of "but" in our future conversations and witness the transformative impact it has on our relationships. Let's harness the power of language to build bridges and foster understanding. Together, we can create a world where our words uplift and connect rather than divide. Let's do good work.

More than one way to get to 10: The path to finding PURPOSE | Finding the NEXTLevel
In today's episode, we delve into the fascinating concept of finding purpose in life. We explore the idea that just as there are numerous ways to reach the number 10, there are countless ways to discover and fulfill our purpose. We firmly believe that purpose entails leveraging our unique gifts, interests, talents, abilities, and personality to leave a positive impact on others.
However, we also emphasize that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to uncovering and implementing our purpose. Each individual has their own distinctive path to follow, one that resonates with their core values and aspirations. While we have crafted our own definition of purpose and developed a method that works for us, we acknowledge that it may not be the ultimate solution for everyone.
Instead, we encourage our listeners to seek out individuals who inspire and resonate with them. By learning from these individuals and exploring their methodologies, we can discern if their approaches align with our own goals and values. It is crucial to recognize that there are infinite possibilities when it comes to reaching our desired results. Therefore, it is essential not to become fixated on the notion that there is only one definitive right way.
Ultimately, we urge our audience to take the first step on their journey towards purpose, remaining open to adaptation and growth along the way. Our paths may evolve and transform as we gain new insights and experiences. Through it all, the most important thing is to engage in meaningful and impactful work that aligns with our purpose and brings about positive change. So, let's embrace the infinite possibilities available to us and embark on this incredible journey of purpose together.

Cracking the Code: From Ignorance to Leadership | Finding the NEXTLevel
In this episode, we delve into the concept of the leadership circle, a modified version of the leadership arc. The leadership circle symbolizes the continuous process of growth and mastery in various aspects of life. It all begins with ignorance, where we lack knowledge or understanding in a specific subject. As we become aware of this ignorance and begin to gain knowledge, we embark on a transformational journey, climbing up the other side of the circle. This journey is not without its challenges, but it ultimately leads to mastery and leadership in that particular area.
Once we reach the pinnacle of mastery, we mustn't rest on our laurels. Instead, we move on to the next challenge, entering the ignorance phase again. It is crucial to seek assistance and guidance throughout this cycle of awareness, transformation, mastery, and leadership in order to continue growing.
Undoubtedly, the journey can be arduous and demanding, but it is precisely through pushing through these challenges that we are able to become true leaders in our chosen fields. The leadership circle reminds us of the perpetual learning and growth required to excel and make a difference. So, let us embrace the cycle and strive for greatness in all areas of our lives.

Breaking the Barriers: Why Taking Action is the Key to Overcoming Challenges | Finding the NEXTLevel
In this episode, we delve into the importance of pushing through challenges and staying productive, even when we're not feeling our best. As adults, we can't rely on others to take care of us like we did as kids. When we're not feeling well, it's easy to lose motivation and want to stay home. However, we discuss how taking action and engaging in productive work can actually help us overcome physical ailments and worry.
We explore how by tackling tasks that need to be done, we not only address our immediate discomfort but also improve our skills and potentially increase our income. It's a surprising realization that focusing on work can help us forget about our pain or sickness. Instead of wallowing in our discomfort, we can channel our energy into accomplishing something meaningful.
We emphasize the importance of remembering that no matter what, we will still feel pain or sickness whether we stay at home or not. So why not use that time to accomplish something productive? We discuss how pushing through challenges, whether it's discomfort, fear, or doubt, is crucial for pursuing our goals and dreams.
By being productive, we can improve our overall well-being and move our lives forward in the direction we desire. It's time to get up and do something. This is how we can make progress and overcome obstacles. We delve into strategies and techniques to maintain productivity even when facing physical or mental setbacks.
Overall, this episode serves as a reminder that despite feeling unwell, we still have the power to take action and make progress towards our goals. By pushing through challenges, we can improve our well-being and move closer to our desired future.

The Importance of Action: Why Talkers Who Don't Walk Should Be Avoided | Finding the NEXTLevel
In this episode, we delve into the topic of connecting with others and the impact it can have on our personal and professional lives. We explore the experience of encountering someone who, despite initial expectations, evokes a strong feeling of dislike. There was an indescribable quality about this person that made the host want to distance themselves. It became apparent that this individual was more focused on talking than taking action. The host expresses a preference for conversations that stimulate them intellectually and contribute to the overall flow of activities. On the contrary, random and irrelevant conversations that disrupt the environment are met with resistance. Despite the suggestion from others that the host and this person would get along, an instant aversion is felt upon meeting them. The host acknowledges that their response may have seemed rude, but their priority was to stay focused on work and not indulge in unproductive conversations. It's frustrating when someone boasts about their accomplishments but fails to demonstrate any tangible results. This person perceives themselves as the most intelligent individual in the room, but their lack of action speaks louder than words. The host advises listeners to steer clear of such individuals and instead surround themselves with people who prioritize both thoughts and actions. Ultimately, doing good work and making a positive impact are what truly matter.

Finding Balance: Knowing When to Push Through and When to Take a Step Back | Finding the NEXTLevel
In this episode, we dive into the story shared by Ken Davis, a comedian and motivational speaker. He recounts his experience trying surfing and the valuable life lesson he learned in the process. As Ken floated near another experienced surfer, he expressed his curiosity about how to ride the waves. The surfer's response was simple yet profound: "You just gotta ride the wave." Little did Ken know, this encounter would serve as a metaphor for life itself.
Ken discovered that sometimes in life, we find ourselves riding the wave effortlessly, experiencing success and harmony. However, there are also moments when the wave seems to overpower us, knocking us down and leaving us feeling like we're on the verge of drowning. It is during these challenging times that we must learn when to push through and when to step back and recharge.
Taking a holistic approach to our lives, careers, and businesses is vital. We need to evaluate all aspects and eliminate anything that no longer serves us. Sometimes, certain things naturally come to an end, and we must have the strength to push through until that point. Ultimately, only we can make these decisions because it is our life and our responsibility.
So, if you find yourself feeling beaten down by the waves of life, take a moment to reflect on your journey thus far. Determine what you can eliminate or create space for in order to recharge and regain your strength. Remember, the key is to keep doing good work and never lose sight of the bigger picture.
