1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,360
So we are live and we've got,

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:05,720
you're looking for the books already.

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:07,120
You're gonna show us what they are.

4
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:07,960
That's fun.

5
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:11,640
Can't hear you too well, but we'll see that.

6
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:16,520
So we got Andy Churchill on from Montreal.

7
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,820
We're gonna be learning about presentations, research,

8
00:00:19,820 --> 00:00:22,720
complex realities before we do that though.

9
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:24,360
Andy, what are the resources?

10
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:25,520
Three books.

11
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:26,480
There you go.

12
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:28,080
I was pulling them off the shelf.

13
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:28,920
I love it.

14
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,480
One's called Escape from the Ivory Tower

15
00:00:32,480 --> 00:00:37,480
about talking about research with people who aren't academics.

16
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:40,800
One's called Talk Like Ted,

17
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:45,800
which is Carmine Gallo's book about Ted's stage.

18
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,680
And one of the things I really appreciate that

19
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:53,680
as someone in academia is he's got some research in it.

20
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:58,680
A lot of these kind of business best practice talk books

21
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,520
don't have a lot of science in them.

22
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,520
They're not necessarily bad, but...

23
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,040
They're not the effective executive

24
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:09,800
and they're not tribal leadership.

25
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,080
They're a little bit more watered down.

26
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,760
Yeah, and they just, when you work with researchers,

27
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,000
researchers want research.

28
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,040
They want stuff that's backed by research.

29
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:20,880
Of course.

30
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,400
And then Gallo's got a nice combination of his own,

31
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,520
his own experience and then also some science in it.

32
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:28,760
So that's cool.

33
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,240
And then for people interested in slides,

34
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,660
I'm actually moving more and more away from slides,

35
00:01:34,660 --> 00:01:39,420
but Duarte's slideology, Nancy Duarte has been,

36
00:01:40,320 --> 00:01:43,640
she's been on top of the slide and speaking game

37
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,760
for a long time.

38
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,560
So those are three good ones.

39
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:48,400
Thank you for that.

40
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,480
We'll absolutely, I think we're gonna revisit this topic

41
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,600
of slides and moving away from slides

42
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,560
because it should be a topic of interest

43
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:02,000
for everyone that wants to be effective in presenting

44
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,680
in 2024 and moving forward.

45
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,960
So we'll be right back and we'll dive in.

46
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,160
All right, welcome in to Vision Pros Live.

47
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,240
With Jackson Calame, I'm your show host.

48
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,920
We'll be doing interviews for visionary entrepreneurs

49
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:15,880
and guest leaders who are building

50
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,600
fantastic visions out there.

51
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:23,600
Hey there and welcome in to another episode

52
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:29,160
of Vision Pros Live.

53
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,920
I'm your host Jackson Calame, founder and CEO

54
00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:33,360
of First Class Business.

55
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,640
And I'm excited to have Andy Churchill here today.

56
00:02:35,640 --> 00:02:37,560
We're gonna be talking about presentations,

57
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:42,560
the gift of presenting, making complex realities simplified

58
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,640
so that it's easy for people to understand

59
00:02:44,640 --> 00:02:46,560
what it is that you're up to.

60
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,840
Probably even how to present to different audiences.

61
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,840
We already started talking about why research matters.

62
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,880
Again, we'll dive back into that in just a minute.

63
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,960
First, let's talk about some of these sponsors that we have.

64
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,720
So we're gonna start with the Wellness Shop 365

65
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,000
with Sean Lechuga.

66
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:06,040
Sean founded the Wellness 365 with a hope to inspire

67
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,240
his audience to move towards an integrative approach

68
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,920
towards wellness, wellbeing and nutrition.

69
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:15,320
And I love that he focuses on what's called

70
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,680
the 365 Will of Life Assessment.

71
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,360
And it's basically got 10 categories or so

72
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,560
that showcase, you know, rating yourself

73
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,400
on a scale of one to 10.

74
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:28,400
What's your joy look like?

75
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:29,920
What's your creativity look like?

76
00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:33,920
What's your family life look like?

77
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:38,200
The idea that there are practitioners out there

78
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,640
who care about us beyond the basic principles,

79
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,320
I you can feel it down to our간

80
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:46,400
the wheel, thank you.

81
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,720
We'll go down to that and that way you can,

82
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,520
you guys can see the concepts.

83
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,140
What he's going to be turning

84
00:03:52,140 --> 00:03:54,640
this into and how well it's gonna help people.

85
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,400
It's just very exciting to me.

86
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,040
It reminds me of Mazzo's hierarchy of needs,

87
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,080
which most people haven't heard of.

88
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,160
You might look that up if you haven't heard of it before.

89
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,880
We're gonna move over to Melissa Gray in the Lawspot.

90
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,020
The Lawspot is Melissa's,

91
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,720
basically, I need to introduce Melissa and Andy

92
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,320
because she simplifies complex processes as well.

93
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:16,840
What she's up to is teaching people

94
00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:19,240
that when it comes to legal matters for business,

95
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:20,680
it doesn't have to be complicated.

96
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,000
It can be more simple.

97
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,600
Her nurturing personality made me really fall in love

98
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,440
with her processes and realize that business owners who

99
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,960
need help from a legal standpoint, well,

100
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,180
they often hire somebody last minute,

101
00:04:32,180 --> 00:04:35,800
or maybe they've entrusted legal Zoom or something that's

102
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,720
a little bit too much of a template.

103
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,720
And then when you get to a point where somebody is sending you

104
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,840
a demand letter or a cease and desist or a trademark lawsuit,

105
00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:46,040
et cetera, you don't necessarily know who to turn to,

106
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,280
she's who I would recommend turning to and interviewing.

107
00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:50,840
And we'll move on to the Water Project now.

108
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:54,480
So the Water Project is the entity

109
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:59,480
that we choose to support and give back the most to.

110
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,960
There's millions of people in this world who don't have access

111
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,280
to clean drinking water.

112
00:05:03,280 --> 00:05:09,060
And there's an opportunity for us to bring water to them.

113
00:05:09,060 --> 00:05:11,920
And the Water Project breaks down their projects

114
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,240
kind of like a Kickstarter.

115
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,880
You get to see the community that you're going to be helping.

116
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,320
Then if you've donated to that project,

117
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,200
they're going to send you an update for what

118
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,520
they did with the money and the project moving forward.

119
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,440
You get to see the impact that you have.

120
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,920
And if you're in a position to where

121
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,800
it makes sense to help out, then we

122
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,200
would love to see you go into that.

123
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,880
If you're not, but you can share this idea,

124
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,560
it's very possible that you'll touch the life of somebody who

125
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,720
you've been and therein lies your opportunity

126
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,480
to contribute to the 8 billion people in this world who

127
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,400
don't have access to even or the luxury to listen

128
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:48,840
to a podcast like this one.

129
00:05:48,840 --> 00:05:50,440
So if we can give back, awesome.

130
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,360
If you know of a cause that you'd like us to give back to,

131
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,840
then by all means, don't hesitate to bring it up

132
00:05:56,840 --> 00:05:59,840
and drop a comment with that cause, the link in there.

133
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:01,000
We will take a look at it.

134
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,420
We'll see if there's a way that we can help or support it

135
00:06:03,420 --> 00:06:03,920
as well.

136
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,880
We might share it on the show even.

137
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,760
And we appreciate you looking out for those out there

138
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,760
who have less fortunate circumstances than we

139
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,400
do as visionaries listening to the show.

140
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,840
So without further ado, Andy Churchill,

141
00:06:16,840 --> 00:06:18,480
I'm excited to have you on the stage.

142
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,440
Welcome to Vision Pros Live.

143
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,120
Cheers, thanks for having me.

144
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:22,960
Absolutely.

145
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,800
Love that you're working with Water for Life.

146
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,480
It's amazing to think people don't have water.

147
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:31,120
Isn't it?

148
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,720
It's, yeah.

149
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,240
Right on the heels of Maslow's hierarchy of needs,

150
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:37,600
you nailed it there.

151
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,800
You didn't even realize you did it.

152
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:40,520
Right.

153
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:41,720
Maybe, maybe I didn't.

154
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,480
Maybe I did.

155
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,600
But yeah, it is hard to fathom.

156
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,880
It's so hard to talk about because it's like, well,

157
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,240
I've got it within 10 feet of me.

158
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,360
In this case, I've got it in my hand.

159
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,880
But I never want to take that for granted.

160
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,160
Other news, other research news, big day today.

161
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,920
Cameroon, just Cameroon, it wasn't today.

162
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,640
It's been going on for about six months now.

163
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,040
We got a vaccine for kids for malaria.

164
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:13,920
Oh, OK.

165
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,560
And it's big.

166
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,400
It's big.

167
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,600
Like water, we take water for granted.

168
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:25,840
Malaria is a big disease in the world.

169
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,120
And it hits kids particularly hard.

170
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:33,480
And the malaria vaccine story is a long one.

171
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,280
But it's starting to hit.

172
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,920
It's getting in kids' arms.

173
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:40,560
Saving lives.

174
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,240
Well, thank you for letting us know.

175
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,040
We'll make sure to drop a comment as well on the landing

176
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,600
page or a link to learn more about that.

177
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,280
If you have a specific link, we're a great resource.

178
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,320
We can learn about that.

179
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,000
Andy, I'd love to put it involved in our materials.

180
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:54,720
Yeah.

181
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,080
I just noticed the article in The Guardian today.

182
00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,240
And I've been following the science behind it for a while.

183
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,600
But these things matter.

184
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,000
And that's part of why I love working in the research

185
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,200
space with researchers.

186
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:10,720
Right.

187
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:18,520
Yeah, researchers don't necessarily get the respect.

188
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:23,920
I think a lot of times, research gets in science either

189
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,000
overlooked or just pulled out of context.

190
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,680
Pulled out of context and get a hard time about stuff.

191
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,200
Yeah.

192
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,920
So what's your vision for those that you serve, Andy?

193
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,800
My vision is so that they can talk about their work

194
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:50,600
in a way that they can be proud of and people can understand.

195
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:54,480
I love it.

196
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,080
You kept that so succinct that it shocked me.

197
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:01,280
But that's a power right there of itself

198
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,400
that they can help people understand where they're

199
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:05,520
coming from on this.

200
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,520
And it's a good feeling when somebody understands you.

201
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,600
We take that for granted, too.

202
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,280
What's your personal vision?

203
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,000
What do you look forward to accomplishing?

204
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,080
Or what do you see on your horizons?

205
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,880
So my vision in this space, I was thinking about this.

206
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:26,360
My vision in this space is that you imagine

207
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,520
you're sitting at a cocktail party and you ask someone.

208
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:30,480
And they're like, what are you?

209
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,280
I'm a scientist.

210
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,960
I'm a researcher is the answer.

211
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:39,400
And usually the response is like, oh, no.

212
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,640
My vision is the response is, oh, cool.

213
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,560
Can you tell me stories about your work?

214
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:47,040
Yeah.

215
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:52,400
And if you're a researcher and you tell people

216
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,720
you're a researcher, people want to know more.

217
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,960
But it's got to start with researchers getting better

218
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,360
at sharing their stories.

219
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,960
And that's what I work on.

220
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:09,000
But my imagination takes me to the point

221
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:14,640
that get enough researchers good enough at doing this

222
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,880
that instead of people rolling their eyes and being like,

223
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:22,000
oh, I don't want to hear about this, the opposite happens.

224
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,240
Yeah, I love the one.

225
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:24,120
It's not limited.

226
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,960
That's you have that mindset of like, OK, I'm

227
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,160
with researchers all day.

228
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,520
And so this is a research oriented reality.

229
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,920
This applies to all of you visionaries.

230
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,920
Every single person in the world who has a title

231
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,720
and you box yourself in based on your titles.

232
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,960
When I represented video power marketing,

233
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,520
I didn't call myself an ambassador.

234
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:45,720
I didn't call myself a sales rep.

235
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,480
I didn't call myself an executive advisor.

236
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,480
Nobody cared about me.

237
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,440
That's not what people typically care about.

238
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,120
I said, we run YouTube ads.

239
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,680
I help companies with their YouTube ads.

240
00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:57,320
Why did I do that?

241
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,000
Everybody loves YouTube.

242
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,400
And so it was fun for people to, oh, what do you mean?

243
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:02,640
How does that work?

244
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,240
It creates a question.

245
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,760
Or I would say, we run YouTube ads, but tell me about you.

246
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,080
What do you do?

247
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,200
Moving into finding out more about people,

248
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,840
when we start caring about the person we're in front of,

249
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:13,640
then we'll start waiting.

250
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,920
So I would say, not only do you researchers,

251
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,320
you guys are at least asking questions.

252
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,080
Most entrepreneurs are introducing themselves as,

253
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,480
you know, I'm a founder of some brand

254
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,400
that nobody cares about.

255
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,520
Ask me more about me, please.

256
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:28,800
Like, what?

257
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,120
You know, you've got to take interest in people.

258
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,040
So I still got to dive right back in.

259
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,960
So what's your vision for you, Andy,

260
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,440
and outside of this place?

261
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,000
You're going to be the champion to help researchers

262
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:42,440
tell better stories.

263
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,640
But what do you see for yourself on the horizon?

264
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,560
You know, I'm in a bit of a transition time

265
00:11:50,560 --> 00:11:53,080
where I've been doing this now for 10 years.

266
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,920
And I've been doing it for 10 years.

267
00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:00,600
And I've worked with almost 10,000 researchers

268
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,440
in those 10 years, as near as I can tell,

269
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,080
who have either come to a workshop

270
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,440
or I've worked one-on-one with.

271
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,760
I've worked with close to a thousand people one-on-one

272
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:14,760
over the last 10 years on an individual presentation.

273
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,600
And I coach a lot of events.

274
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:23,600
So, you know, I'll work with five, 10, 20 people at a time

275
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:25,800
through an event.

276
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,600
And that's actually my favorite way to work with people

277
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,320
because then they have skin in the game.

278
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,200
Whereas when you just do workshops teaching

279
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,200
about how to do this better,

280
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,360
they, you know, it's kind of in one ear out the other.

281
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,480
Maybe not, maybe it rattles around in their brain

282
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,080
a little bit, but until you actually do it,

283
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,600
that's when the magic happens.

284
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,680
The rubber has grown, so to speak.

285
00:12:48,680 --> 00:12:51,840
It's still more fun to see that immediate impact.

286
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,760
Dom, I would agree with you on that.

287
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:58,760
So my, the next step for me is whether or not

288
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:05,560
I can scale it because I can't, you know,

289
00:13:05,560 --> 00:13:09,680
that vision of like changing how researchers

290
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:14,680
talk about research, I can't do at a thousand people a year.

291
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,440
There are too many researchers.

292
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:26,440
So I'm starting to play with ways to scale.

293
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,200
Yep, that's awesome.

294
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:33,120
And it's that question, right, of how can I scale it, right?

295
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:34,760
And there's no easy answer on that.

296
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,520
Somebody can try to make that oversimplify that for you.

297
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,120
But I was talking to Justin Breen about this.

298
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,760
He was on the show and he and I had to agree to disagree.

299
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,280
He did not like my vision and that's okay.

300
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:48,320
We're still good friends.

301
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:49,920
We just see the world differently.

302
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,920
And I believe that everybody has the power

303
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,120
to be a visionary.

304
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,080
He said, no, doesn't, no, can't happen.

305
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,840
And I said, I don't agree and here's why.

306
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,160
And he didn't like my analogy either, but I still love it.

307
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:02,760
I think it applies to you.

308
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,520
And that's that a hundred years ago,

309
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:06,920
nobody could have done this.

310
00:14:08,560 --> 00:14:11,240
200 years ago, nobody could have done this with lights.

311
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:12,280
And they wouldn't have wanted to.

312
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:13,600
Even if they'd figured it out somewhat,

313
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,720
it would have been so scary to do that.

314
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,800
You could potentially kill yourself,

315
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,440
playing around with a light bulb like that

316
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,560
or playing around with fire like that.

317
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:26,160
Somebody, right, some people, systems, researchers,

318
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,320
inventors figured out how to make it possible for myself.

319
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,800
I can pick up a book and make a light like that these days

320
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,200
or a YouTube video and make something like that these days.

321
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,640
So you're on track to unlocking,

322
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:43,840
tapping into that same code of how do I empower the masses

323
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,360
to be able to utilize what you've been teaching one-on-one

324
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:48,520
and one-to-many for a while.

325
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,160
I think that's amazing.

326
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:52,000
Thank you for doing it.

327
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,280
Just gonna say thank you, it's awesome.

328
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:55,480
It's a little daunting.

329
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,680
You know, it's funny because the catch point too,

330
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,880
because if you notice, I said that right on the heels

331
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,160
of working one-on-one with people

332
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,840
and people having skin in the game

333
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,640
and working with it at the event level.

334
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:16,360
And I haven't cracked the code on how to do both.

335
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,760
But yeah.

336
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:20,960
It's gonna take some hard work.

337
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,760
I'm only 55, I got time.

338
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,480
That's right, you do.

339
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:26,320
You do.

340
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,920
And maybe you crack half the code.

341
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,240
Or Thomas Edison got to where he got to,

342
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,240
but he didn't invent the ring light.

343
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:35,520
No, he didn't invent the ring light.

344
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,480
I have the ring light now.

345
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,960
So there's still, we make these impacts,

346
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,760
but I can tell that you're,

347
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,920
the fact that you're pondering it as deeply as you are,

348
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,840
the fact that you say it's daunting,

349
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,320
tells me how bad you're getting after it

350
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:49,600
and wanting to make it happen.

351
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,280
And that's admirable.

352
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:56,200
I wish more visionaries understood that that journey itself,

353
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,640
like that's the essence of it for me.

354
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:00,280
It's like, I enjoy the journey.

355
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:01,520
That's why I'm on this.

356
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:03,720
What's your worst leadership?

357
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,160
Go ahead. That's an interesting.

358
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:06,000
Go ahead, hit it.

359
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:06,840
Hit me with it.

360
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,640
It is the journey, man.

361
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:12,360
And that's, it drives me a little bonkers.

362
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:13,560
Some of the, you know,

363
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,160
LinkedIn's the primary platform I'm on,

364
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,160
but all the platforms are the same where it's like,

365
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,920
you get these like fast, quick hits of like

366
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,360
exponential growth.

367
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:31,360
And it's about, it's about like a finish.

368
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,680
Like how do I get there as fast as I, it's like,

369
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:35,880
it's about the journey.

370
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:36,800
Like how do you grow?

371
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,160
How do you learn?

372
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,800
Like I look at, you know, my footprint on LinkedIn's gone

373
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,880
from 500 to 5,000 to now 25,000,

374
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,840
which, you know, some people think is big.

375
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,760
Some people, for some people it's not, for me it is.

376
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,600
Awesome.

377
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,480
But the, but the journey

378
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:02,640
has been about exploring what it means

379
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,080
to help people present more effectively

380
00:17:08,120 --> 00:17:13,120
through a written medium or,

381
00:17:13,120 --> 00:17:14,520
and a little bit of video

382
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,160
in 30 second soundbites.

383
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,800
Because that's all you got, right?

384
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:22,880
That's all you got.

385
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,640
And that journey has helped me be infinitely better

386
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,520
in my own work with people when I have an hour,

387
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,520
three hours, 10 hours,

388
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,080
and I'm working with them in detail.

389
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,560
But it's about learning.

390
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:43,080
It's not about like, it's not about the numbers.

391
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,200
It's not about like tricking the algorithm.

392
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:51,200
It's about learning yourself and helping people.

393
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,120
See, I appreciate that a lot because you said 30 seconds

394
00:17:56,120 --> 00:17:57,920
and that's one box, right?

395
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,600
But on a website back in 2010, it was eight seconds.

396
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,960
Nowadays on a website, it's less than three seconds

397
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:06,920
to be able to influence.

398
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,000
And if you're, and if you look at the opportunities in life

399
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:10,840
and say, well, wait a second,

400
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,720
how does this apply to my everyday life?

401
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,200
I'm a master at capturing people's tension in person.

402
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:18,400
And it serves me well.

403
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,640
Cause when I saw that dude driving off

404
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:25,640
and he hadn't removed the gas pump from his car,

405
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:30,600
and I'm like, whoa, and I hit it hard and he stops,

406
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,840
it saved the gas station, it saved his car.

407
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:37,560
It was an opportunity to make a profound impact

408
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:38,800
in somebody's life.

409
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:42,160
And so I love that you said, we don't box ourselves in.

410
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:43,240
We look at the opportunities.

411
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,200
Sometimes we have five minutes, sometimes we have 50,

412
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,240
and sometimes we have the head nod opportunity.

413
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,400
And if they catch the head nod eye to eye,

414
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:51,720
and then you're like, all right, bro,

415
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:53,520
like we can catch up now.

416
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,520
So lots of opportunities.

417
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,520
Let's dive into a dark subject.

418
00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:00,240
What's your, you've had a lot of research experience.

419
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,480
What's your worst leadership experience ever?

420
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:07,480
I was, you know, I was thrust into a leadership position

421
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,520
before I was ready.

422
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,280
I don't know if one's ever ready,

423
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,320
but I definitely wasn't ready.

424
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:21,320
And I had a positive impact on the community.

425
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,160
Like I did my job well,

426
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,160
I was in a position where I was ready to do my job.

427
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,280
Like I did my job well,

428
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,280
but the leadership component of it,

429
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,560
it was a fricking train wreck.

430
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:40,440
I've been there many times.

431
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,120
It was a train wreck.

432
00:19:42,120 --> 00:19:46,960
I mean, I was just full of imposter syndrome and anxiety.

433
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:51,800
And, you know, I don't know, have you ever done a 360,

434
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,720
you know, one of those 360 reviews?

435
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:54,800
Evaluation.

436
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,840
Oh, I did one of those and I was 26,

437
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,040
and I don't think anybody else in the room was under 40.

438
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:03,920
And it was with the senior leadership team,

439
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,840
maybe under 35, right?

440
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:11,080
I was 26 and they were 35 with kids.

441
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,640
And it was a school, so like no kids, no,

442
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,520
like, and I wasn't teaching.

443
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,440
I was running the admissions part of the school.

444
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,400
Most entrepreneurs have never done a 360 evaluation

445
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:22,880
or they've attempted it

446
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,560
without actually going the full 360 degrees.

447
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,000
So that is one of the most important elements, visionaries,

448
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,280
that you can look up, learn about, research it on YouTube,

449
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:33,640
ask Andy about it.

450
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:34,480
Go ahead.

451
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,600
So you got grilled in the 360 evaluation.

452
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:37,440
It was brutal.

453
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,040
But it was true, you know?

454
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,680
So all these executives-

455
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,480
There's a difference between being smart and being wise.

456
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:48,800
There's a difference.

457
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:52,200
Like, I just gotta keep remembering that, right?

458
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,320
Like I, you know, people would tease me and say,

459
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,200
you know, you think you're the smartest guy in the room

460
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,800
and who knows, I might've been,

461
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,560
but I sure as hell wasn't the wisest.

462
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:02,400
Yeah.

463
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,000
And when you realize it's not about being right,

464
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,360
it's not about, it's about empathy.

465
00:21:11,360 --> 00:21:15,920
It's about giving other people space.

466
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:18,360
It's not about having the answer.

467
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:20,960
But when I was 25, I just wanted to have the answer.

468
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:21,800
Yeah.

469
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:22,720
We were the same.

470
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,120
We were in a clash.

471
00:21:24,120 --> 00:21:25,360
We were in a clash of titans.

472
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:27,280
We probably would have been friends too,

473
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,560
but probably it would have been difficult.

474
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,080
We either would have been best friends

475
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,720
or at each other's throats or a little of both.

476
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,040
Probably a little bit of both.

477
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,200
Yep, I get you on that.

478
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,760
What's your best leadership experience look like?

479
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,040
I think it's my next one.

480
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,480
I think it's the one that's just starting right now.

481
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,080
It's coming.

482
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:59,080
And I'm getting more and more opportunities.

483
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,800
And this is the scaling question.

484
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,200
I'm starting to have more and more opportunities

485
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:11,200
to build programs where I don't have to teach all the time.

486
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,960
So the McGill three-minute thesis competition,

487
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,960
which is you take grad student researchers,

488
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:23,960
one static slide, three minutes, tell me about your work.

489
00:22:25,360 --> 00:22:30,360
And there are 175 students, 175 grad students

490
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,520
that McGill signed up to participate right now.

491
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,280
And the people who are running the workshops,

492
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,640
who are doing the training, aren't me

493
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,160
because there's not enough anymore, right?

494
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,880
So there are students who participated last year

495
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:52,760
and the year before, and I'm starting to train the trainer.

496
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:57,760
And then I go and I do this small group coaching work

497
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,680
and they're in the room and I watch them coach.

498
00:23:04,360 --> 00:23:06,360
And they blow me away.

499
00:23:08,120 --> 00:23:08,960
That's awesome.

500
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,920
Like if I can just shut up and watch.

501
00:23:12,120 --> 00:23:12,960
Because it's hard.

502
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:14,720
You come in and you're like,

503
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,360
and I've been doing it by myself for so long.

504
00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:19,960
I mean, when you asked me

505
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,960
about my worst leadership experience, that was 20 years.

506
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,480
No shit, that was almost 30 years ago.

507
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,120
That was 25 years ago.

508
00:23:31,360 --> 00:23:36,360
And between then and now, like since 2005,

509
00:23:36,360 --> 00:23:41,360
I've been solo and now I have a team again.

510
00:23:41,360 --> 00:23:46,360
So there's like 20 years between leadership experience.

511
00:23:46,360 --> 00:23:47,800
And there were a few in between.

512
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:48,960
Like I was on the board.

513
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:53,960
I did seven, eight years stint on a board

514
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,920
at a local food bank.

515
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:56,760
Nice.

516
00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:01,360
And that was a big time leadership experience.

517
00:24:01,360 --> 00:24:03,560
That might actually been one of my best.

518
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:05,800
Didn't have a happy ending,

519
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,160
but actually from a leadership standpoint,

520
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:14,160
I, well, you don't wanna hear it.

521
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:15,400
You wanna hear that story?

522
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,920
Well, I would, but let's do this.

523
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,560
Let's save that for a new segment post call.

524
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,360
That way we can-

525
00:24:23,360 --> 00:24:24,200
We'll get back to the research.

526
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,840
We can have something to move towards as well.

527
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,080
But sometimes our best leadership experiences

528
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,080
and opportunities don't end the happiness

529
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:35,960
with that happy ending.

530
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,760
I mean, I'm twice as happy as you.

531
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,200
I'm happy ending, I mean, I'm twice divorced,

532
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,800
but my best leadership experience and opportunity

533
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,080
to raise my four kids,

534
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,360
and to try to have that family and that household,

535
00:24:48,360 --> 00:24:50,600
it matters tremendously to me.

536
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,920
And so it's not always the story we want to tell,

537
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,560
but sometimes there's great opportunities to learn from it.

538
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,160
Your period of time as well as now that you've developed

539
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,880
and you're a leader at a new opportunity,

540
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,720
you probably have more opportunity to self reflect

541
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,440
on things you wanna do different this time

542
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:08,280
around and move forward.

543
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,720
But what really struck my attention

544
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,040
about what you said with the journey, Andy,

545
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:16,920
is the pit stops that entrepreneurs don't wanna acknowledge.

546
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,920
Look at the Indy 500, these cars that race around,

547
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,920
you'd think, well, if the car just keeps going,

548
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,560
it's gonna win, right?

549
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,160
You've got a pit stop opportunity right now,

550
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,040
but if your crew has not put the other wheel on,

551
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,400
theoretically, you will go forward faster.

552
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,520
You will make more progress faster than if you wait

553
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,480
for him to put the fourth wheel back on.

554
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,480
We will completely destroy and ruin your opportunity

555
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:42,640
to win the race.

556
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,560
And business owners often don't wanna acknowledge

557
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,120
the pit stop, they don't wanna hear about it,

558
00:25:47,120 --> 00:25:47,960
they don't wanna look at it,

559
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,280
they just wanna go, go, go like you were talking about.

560
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,600
And it's not a pretty ending if they keep going.

561
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,280
So before we dive in to presentations,

562
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,900
last nugget of wisdom we'll go over.

563
00:26:00,900 --> 00:26:05,900
If you could share one final powerful lesson

564
00:26:06,820 --> 00:26:08,820
with visionaries that they can learn from your experience,

565
00:26:08,820 --> 00:26:09,660
what would it be?

566
00:26:09,660 --> 00:26:11,060
What would the last lesson be?

567
00:26:16,660 --> 00:26:20,180
I think for me, I'll stay with this theme

568
00:26:21,500 --> 00:26:24,000
and say quality over speed.

569
00:26:26,340 --> 00:26:29,980
I think that some of the tech lessons

570
00:26:29,980 --> 00:26:33,780
of like go fast and break things, I don't know.

571
00:26:34,900 --> 00:26:38,020
Maybe, not for me, not for me.

572
00:26:39,180 --> 00:26:42,680
And maybe actually that's the real lesson

573
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:47,680
is that whatever this week's hot theory is,

574
00:26:52,620 --> 00:26:54,480
it doesn't have to be right for you.

575
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:59,480
It doesn't like, this week's hot theory

576
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,800
is just this week's hot theory.

577
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,920
Wait six months, wait five years,

578
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,440
someone else will be doing the exact opposite

579
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,040
and saying it's the best thing since sliced bread.

580
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:11,880
True.

581
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:14,400
I love this concept.

582
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,040
I mean, I've read a lot about billionaires

583
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,600
and multimillionaires, which I'm not either of.

584
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:24,200
And there's a common trend and theme that comes up

585
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,600
in some of the more harmonious articles that come out

586
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,600
that say one of their powers, secret powers

587
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:30,900
is the ability to say no.

588
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:36,720
The ability to realize that they might be spreading too thin.

589
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,440
Then there's people who say just do the one thing

590
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,600
and Gary Keller, I love you and I love your book.

591
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:41,720
And at the same time,

592
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,280
LeVron James was told to just shut up a dribble

593
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:45,960
and I'm glad he didn't.

594
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:47,960
He's got a dynamic personality

595
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,320
with a lot of things he can get done.

596
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,680
He does the promise school.

597
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,320
I mean, he's got all of his business ventures outside

598
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,320
of the NBA as well.

599
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:59,040
But like you said, he's not following what-

600
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:03,000
Yeah, I mean, look at what the NBA has done

601
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,380
because LeVron James didn't shut up and dribble, right?

602
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:12,040
And he was able, because of his position,

603
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:17,040
unlike the NFL could shut down-

604
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:18,120
Colin Kaepernick.

605
00:28:18,120 --> 00:28:20,200
Our quarterback, Colin Kaepernick, right?

606
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,560
Like Kaepernick tried to, you know,

607
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,880
he was true to himself

608
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,640
and we're still talking about him, right?

609
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:33,640
But the NFL hasn't been able to achieve the same impact,

610
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,800
I don't think that the NBA has

611
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,200
and part of it like LeVron James, right?

612
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,680
Like he opened it up for people.

613
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,020
I haven't done enough research

614
00:28:47,020 --> 00:28:50,720
to fully opinionate beyond the swag, right?

615
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,480
The scientific wild ass guess.

616
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:58,480
But my swag opinion would be that I'm with you there.

617
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:00,800
And here's what I would look at

618
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:05,480
as looking at the NBA players and the NFL players,

619
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:10,040
from what I understand, the amount of players who go broke

620
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:11,960
after their careers who are left broken

621
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,080
because they weren't prepared for life

622
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,280
for the NFL is far more staggering.

623
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,240
The statistics are far worse saying

624
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,700
that NFL players end up in really bad situations

625
00:29:21,700 --> 00:29:25,600
comparatively to the NBA, which from what I've seen,

626
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,440
have programs built around personal development.

627
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,280
You know, Kevin Love and DeMar DeRozan

628
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,680
came out with commercials about going to therapy

629
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,560
and how that's important and helpful for them.

630
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:42,560
They seem to take more public initiatives

631
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:46,920
to be involved in causes, be able to speak their minds,

632
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,160
have opinions without being crucified for it.

633
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:55,160
So I would look at the stats of which individuals' lives

634
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,240
seem to be longer and which ones also seem to be

635
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,840
well-prepared for life beyond the game.

636
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,000
So quality, quality over speed.

637
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:08,840
I like that a lot.

638
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:13,840
I think quality over speed, quality never, quality never.

639
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:20,320
I mean, you know, then you get into the analysis paralysis

640
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,600
space and all that.

641
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,600
So there's, you know, there's a harmony.

642
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,640
There's a harmony.

643
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:27,480
Yeah.

644
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,480
I mean, we get into like, when's the right time

645
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,380
to make a decision versus how much information you have

646
00:30:32,380 --> 00:30:34,000
and the quality of the decision.

647
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:39,000
But I just feel like, I feel like part of the,

648
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:46,760
part of the tack revolution has taken us

649
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,160
to the wrong side of the pendulum.

650
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:52,800
Yeah.

651
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,480
What's the good news about a pendulum though?

652
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:56,680
It comes back, baby.

653
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:57,800
It comes back.

654
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:58,720
I'm just waiting.

655
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:01,200
Right.

656
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,460
That's true.

657
00:31:05,460 --> 00:31:07,160
That's that is well, that is well said.

658
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,360
I am, you know, I think we're waiting,

659
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:14,240
but at the same time, Andy, we're leading it, you know,

660
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,600
by talking about it, you know, by, by making sure

661
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,280
that we're doing, taking actions about it.

662
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:19,680
And so I'm with you on that, man.

663
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,920
I'm, I learned, I learned the value of the tech swing,

664
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:28,000
the get it out there, raw, ugly, dirty launch.

665
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,320
And I'm so grateful for it from Jake Larsen

666
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,240
of Video Power Marketing.

667
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,800
You know, when he asked me if he should launch his course

668
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,300
and he said, Jackson, you're the most critical person I know.

669
00:31:37,300 --> 00:31:38,140
I need your feedback.

670
00:31:38,140 --> 00:31:38,960
Should I do this or not?

671
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:40,720
And I was like, wow, that's the worst compliment

672
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,040
I've ever received in my life.

673
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,560
And I said, I'm sorry, Jake, I know, so hard on him

674
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,680
and our previous engagement.

675
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:49,840
So I didn't want to give him feedback,

676
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:50,920
but he knew he needed it.

677
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:54,920
So I took his little course for creating video ads

678
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,520
that drive conversions and sales back in 2010 or 11.

679
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,080
And I said, dude, this is amazing.

680
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:03,360
I mean, I always said, you know,

681
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,160
before I told him to go on it, I said,

682
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:06,920
and it's awful, like I need to fix it.

683
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:08,520
So I gave him all sorts of feedback.

684
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,840
I probably put 40 hours of work into it

685
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,920
in addition to running my own startup.

686
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:14,080
And part of it was like, okay,

687
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:15,400
I'm using this for my startup too.

688
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,480
So this is justified, right?

689
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:21,040
So I sent him all those notes and he launched.

690
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:22,780
He didn't care about my notes.

691
00:32:22,780 --> 00:32:25,620
He didn't put a single period or comma or change.

692
00:32:25,620 --> 00:32:27,100
He just launched.

693
00:32:27,100 --> 00:32:29,200
Ryan Dice put him on stage six months later,

694
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,320
called him YouTube ad expert of the world,

695
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:33,880
and the rest is history.

696
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,880
VideoPower became the YouTube ad experts of the world

697
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,380
and did some awesome campaigns.

698
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,800
I learned the value of that 80% launch rule,

699
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:46,120
but a lot of tech startups are doing the 8%

700
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,160
or the 0.8% rule.

701
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,760
And they're launching with almost nothing saying,

702
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,000
oh, I'm a fractional COO.

703
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,180
I've never been a COO in my life.

704
00:32:55,180 --> 00:32:56,380
I don't even know what a COO does,

705
00:32:56,380 --> 00:32:59,260
but I'll claim the title because it gets me hired.

706
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:05,920
Well, like we're running into dangerous territory

707
00:33:06,300 --> 00:33:09,840
as a market, as a business industry

708
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,600
when we don't self-regulate or we're not regulated.

709
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,080
I prefer we start self-regulating

710
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,120
so that we don't have to be regulated too fiercely,

711
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,140
but we have the opportunity to lead that.

712
00:33:22,140 --> 00:33:25,540
So tell me about crafting impact.

713
00:33:25,540 --> 00:33:26,760
Let's dive into that.

714
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:28,800
Crafting impactful research messages

715
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,960
to simplify painfully complex realities.

716
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:34,200
The mic is yours.

717
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,840
I'm here, I'll just ask random questions as you go.

718
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:41,840
I struggle a bit with the word simplify.

719
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:51,120
I bet you do.

720
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:55,360
I like to think of it as making accessible.

721
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,560
You know, as simple as you can be without being simpler.

722
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:06,160
I think too often, you know, we get these catchphrases,

723
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,040
right, like the simplicity beyond the complexity.

724
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,360
Hold on, I wanna interrupt you for something funny.

725
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:14,420
I'm just teasing you on it,

726
00:34:14,420 --> 00:34:16,560
but your vision was the one

727
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:17,840
that had the word simplified in it.

728
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:18,680
I had to go check.

729
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,400
I was like, did I put the word on him?

730
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,960
Oh yeah, your vision sentence.

731
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,480
It definitely says, let's read it real quick.

732
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,280
My vision is to convert complex problems and solutions

733
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,440
into a simplified message.

734
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,600
Great research presentations are rare,

735
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:33,960
but they don't have to be.

736
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:35,720
Yeah, here's the challenge.

737
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,560
So how do you be simple without being too simple?

738
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:46,560
And how do you create understanding?

739
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:51,560
Understanding, and part of it is getting as simple

740
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,160
as you can, right?

741
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:56,000
Yes.

742
00:34:57,240 --> 00:34:59,640
But also not oversimplifying.

743
00:35:00,780 --> 00:35:02,280
What if they speak Spanish?

744
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:05,960
Right, new angle on that.

745
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,460
The simplification then changes gears completely.

746
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:11,920
So I'm with you.

747
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:13,440
That's why it's so hard to simplify.

748
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,760
What we call simple is not necessarily simple

749
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:17,920
to the other person.

750
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:18,960
Thank you, knowledge.

751
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,800
There's a study in Harvard from a long time ago

752
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,920
called the curse of knowledge.

753
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,640
So if I give this water bottle to a caveman,

754
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,300
you know how to drink out of this,

755
00:35:29,300 --> 00:35:31,160
that dude's probably gonna take a rock

756
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,480
and break the sucker open.

757
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:38,200
That's what we call common sense when we condescend.

758
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,760
And as visionaries, we tend to condescend

759
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:42,640
at everybody about our visions.

760
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:43,480
Why don't you get it?

761
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:44,300
Like this makes perfect.

762
00:35:44,300 --> 00:35:46,120
Well, it makes sense to you.

763
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,800
Well, go ahead, Andy, let's jump right back on.

764
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,860
It makes sense to you, right.

765
00:35:50,860 --> 00:35:53,120
We always make sense to ourself, right?

766
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:59,880
And that's the, I think part of what I provide

767
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,200
when I work with people, some of it is

768
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:09,080
thinking about systems that help us get to

769
00:36:09,660 --> 00:36:11,120
what we wanna be talking about,

770
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:16,000
whether that's through story or metaphor

771
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:21,020
or some sort of scripted exercise.

772
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:27,200
And some of that is just providing a mirror

773
00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:30,840
or a translation.

774
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:35,420
So the mirror is, do you know what you just said?

775
00:36:35,420 --> 00:36:39,440
And saying back to someone so they can hear it

776
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,640
because they hear it and they're like, did I really say this?

777
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:45,320
I remember from my own PhD,

778
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:49,120
as I was editing my PhD, my wife's an editor.

779
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,200
She works in the newspaper world

780
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:57,200
and we'd edit in the car, but she'd get car sick.

781
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:58,920
So she couldn't edit in the car.

782
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:00,860
So I'd read aloud to her.

783
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:06,840
Oh man, boy, did I say some shit that didn't make sense.

784
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:11,840
I'm like, okay, you don't have to say anything.

785
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:14,960
Exactly.

786
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:16,800
Just drive in the car.

787
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:18,840
I'm like, don't say it.

788
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,040
Don't look at me, just keep driving.

789
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,280
So some of it is that, and then some of it is just,

790
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,560
I have a knack for taking something

791
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,400
and I'm like, I'm gonna take it.

792
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:39,400
I'm gonna take it for taking something that someone said

793
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:44,600
and saying it back and I'll get some of the facts wrong.

794
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,640
Like, oh, but it'll make sense.

795
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:52,440
It might be inaccurate and then they can fix it.

796
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:53,520
Yes.

797
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,040
Then their job is to fix it.

798
00:37:56,040 --> 00:38:00,560
But my job is to repackage it in a way.

799
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,320
Andy, I can see you drive a healthy dose.

800
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:07,440
You actually drive a healthy dose of doubt,

801
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:11,680
of self doubt, ironically, in some of what you do.

802
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,840
You've done it on this podcast a couple of times

803
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,160
and it's not a bad thing.

804
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:17,000
It creates-

805
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:18,200
Tell me more about that.

806
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,040
I will.

807
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:19,860
What do you mean when you say that?

808
00:38:19,860 --> 00:38:21,200
Why did you ask?

809
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,840
So in relation to just some of the questions

810
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:25,340
or even when we were talking beforehand,

811
00:38:25,340 --> 00:38:26,880
like do we need the presentation or not?

812
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:28,400
Or when you talked about simplification,

813
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,160
you said, or I use the word simplified.

814
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:31,360
You said, no, it's not what I meant.

815
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:32,760
We went back to your statement

816
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,480
and I kind of call you out on that or whatever.

817
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,560
But that when you create an environment

818
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,760
where there's less certainty

819
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,240
and it's in a healthy, protected environment,

820
00:38:42,240 --> 00:38:46,440
now we can incubate a far more clear mastermind session

821
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,760
because we're exploring perspectives and paradigms

822
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,440
that aren't our gut instincts.

823
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,120
That makes sense.

824
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:56,600
It's weird how that makes sense, isn't it?

825
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,440
It's almost like that doesn't make sense,

826
00:38:58,440 --> 00:38:59,800
but again, it does.

827
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:01,440
That's what masterminding is all about

828
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,280
is looking at the devil, be the devil's advocate,

829
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,120
be the angel's advocate,

830
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,600
explore what's the worst case and the best case scenario

831
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:13,600
except both, and what are all the routes possible in between

832
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,080
but doing so effectively and efficiently

833
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:18,760
in a healthy environment.

834
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,800
That's why, I mean, at some level,

835
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,920
that's why I like coming on podcasts.

836
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:26,760
Yeah.

837
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:27,720
Right?

838
00:39:27,720 --> 00:39:30,640
You come and you talk about this stuff and it's not easy.

839
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,720
Like I'm not sitting here like...

840
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,080
I got a big question to ask you.

841
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:35,920
Is that okay?

842
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:36,760
Yeah, yeah.

843
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:37,960
I'm gonna tee up with a scenario.

844
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,480
So let's pretend 100 million people

845
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,680
listened to you last week.

846
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,640
And naturally, because there's 100 million who are listening,

847
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,360
you're gonna have a line of people who are like,

848
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,360
I dig it, I'm ready to go.

849
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,440
I don't care what you said on stage.

850
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:52,280
They're just ready.

851
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:53,480
They know they need to get,

852
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,080
they've got painful, complex realities.

853
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:57,840
They can't communicate.

854
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,200
What's my next step?

855
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,560
So now we got these thousand people that are right here.

856
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:04,320
Where do you take them from there?

857
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:07,640
What does it look like?

858
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,120
One at a time or a thousand at a time?

859
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:11,960
No, a thousand.

860
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:13,360
Like we're all ready to go.

861
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,520
Can you tell yourselves if we gotta get in line?

862
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,800
A thousand at a time,

863
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:25,800
I take you through the four pieces that I think

864
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:30,800
one of which is the thing that's preventing you

865
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:36,760
from being effective on stage.

866
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,080
You mind revealing those four?

867
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,440
One of them's content.

868
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,920
So one of them's like the actual message.

869
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,000
One of them's visuals.

870
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:49,200
We talked about it earlier.

871
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:50,120
It's like most people,

872
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,520
their PowerPoint is actually a problem.

873
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:55,920
Their PowerPoint's interfering with their ability

874
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:57,240
to communicate their message.

875
00:40:57,240 --> 00:40:58,480
It's visual, verbal vomit.

876
00:40:58,480 --> 00:40:59,320
Got it.

877
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:00,160
What's the next one?

878
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:02,760
The other one's body language, voice.

879
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:11,880
And the last one is imposter syndrome, speaking anxiety.

880
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,320
Ooh, loud, smooth, less of a fear.

881
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,200
And you gotta get all of those.

882
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,000
If I don't know what your problem is,

883
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,920
then I just talk about those things

884
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,800
and talk about ways to rethink those things.

885
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,440
And that's what I do with LinkedIn.

886
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,680
I talk about one of those four things

887
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,080
and I talk about one little sliver of it.

888
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:42,880
And 1,000 people see it, 2,000 people see it,

889
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,480
5,000 people see it, sometimes 20,000 people see it.

890
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,800
And for me, I'm like,

891
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,200
I don't even know how many people see it.

892
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,880
And for two or three people,

893
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:55,480
or maybe 10 people,

894
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,440
it moved the dial.

895
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,440
It was like, oh man, that's helpful.

896
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,320
And so with 1,000 people,

897
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,560
it's a little bit of like-

898
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:09,840
Let's jump in a little bit.

899
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:10,680
Exactly.

900
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:11,520
So I'm gonna push a little bit further

901
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:13,960
and you're gonna say, Jackson, I don't do 1,000 people.

902
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,640
I'm happy, let's make this workshops with,

903
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:18,520
I'm only gonna take 10 of you forward.

904
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:20,800
Who are the right 10 people?

905
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:22,080
What are their qualifications,

906
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,120
pre-qualifications to be ready for that?

907
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:25,880
And then what do you do with them?

908
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,840
So when I'm working with 10 people, they present.

909
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:34,040
Instead of me presenting, they present.

910
00:42:36,720 --> 00:42:37,560
Perfect.

911
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:41,600
And then I give them, then I know which lever.

912
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:44,720
Right, now you're doing the,

913
00:42:44,720 --> 00:42:47,320
not necessarily a 360 degree evaluation,

914
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:48,760
but you're doing a,

915
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:51,520
I have done this for thousands of people,

916
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,520
and now you're able to dissect exactly what they're doing.

917
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:54,800
I just know which lever.

918
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,800
Like, what's the thing that's gonna unlock,

919
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,080
what's the highest ROI?

920
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:06,920
Like a movie critic,

921
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,200
but you're doing it for things that matter.

922
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,400
No offense, movie critics, but-

923
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:16,400
Like if somebody sends me a five or 10 minute video,

924
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,240
I'll send you back three things

925
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,160
that'll make you better, dramatically.

926
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:28,280
But I won't send you back more than three things.

927
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,120
And I had a friend-

928
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:31,800
You'll do that for anybody?

929
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:32,640
I'll do that for anybody.

930
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,360
I have a friend of mine who did this and said,

931
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,040
you should be doing this with,

932
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,160
like you should be doing this with like the super exacts,

933
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,040
and you should say, listen,

934
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:44,120
it'll only take you 10 minutes,

935
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,120
but it'll cost you a thousand dollars.

936
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,280
And it takes me about an hour,

937
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,920
cause I sit and I go through it.

938
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:56,600
Did you have a conversation with your friend

939
00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:58,840
about the power of the word should?

940
00:43:58,840 --> 00:43:59,680
Yeah.

941
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:04,960
And anyway, what I'm getting at with that,

942
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:06,360
I'm not, I'm absolutely not,

943
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:07,840
I'm never gonna use that word with you.

944
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:09,400
I don't use it with visionaries.

945
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,480
Visionaries, you've never heard this too much from me,

946
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:16,480
but I try so hard not to use controlling language

947
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,680
and impose my will on others.

948
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:21,760
I'll invite people to do things.

949
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,760
I'll say what they could do,

950
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,440
but I never cross, I try to never cross-

951
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,120
You never cross this should, could.

952
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:30,760
Shoulds because I'm not your visionary,

953
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:32,080
you're the visionary.

954
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,640
But is that a possible strategy?

955
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:35,960
Absolutely.

956
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,280
And I love that you,

957
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,000
again, I'm calling you kind of the movie critic

958
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:41,320
in that regard.

959
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,880
It's one of the things that I do with the businesses

960
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:45,720
who work with two, we're optimizing.

961
00:44:45,720 --> 00:44:48,760
People have to want that optimization though as well, right?

962
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:50,080
They gotta be in a position

963
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:51,600
where they're willing to receive it.

964
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:53,360
I think it's awesome that you do it.

965
00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:55,880
If you're working one-on-one with somebody,

966
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,640
what would that process look like?

967
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:04,040
So one-on-one actually looks like the group process is,

968
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,040
the advantage of three or four or five on one

969
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:13,040
is that you get to watch someone else be coached.

970
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:18,360
And when I work with three or four people at the same time,

971
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:22,680
the thing that I wanna say to you

972
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:25,440
that you're going to be defensive about,

973
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,280
I can wait until the next person

974
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:32,680
and I can give them positive feedback.

975
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:34,720
And really what I'm doing is looking at,

976
00:45:34,720 --> 00:45:38,520
so instead of, if you and I were working together,

977
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:43,520
instead of saying, Jackson, you don't pause.

978
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,280
You need to pause after you've said something,

979
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:50,840
which isn't true, you do pause.

980
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:54,640
You can hit me on something true.

981
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:56,480
I could wait until the next person

982
00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:01,520
and listening to them, I could then look at you and say,

983
00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:04,800
Jackson, what do you notice about him?

984
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:08,800
What do you notice about the space in his language?

985
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:13,800
And you'd say, well, there were silences.

986
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,440
You're like, and how did you feel about that?

987
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,120
And you'd say, well, it was kind of nice

988
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:22,360
because I could think.

989
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:25,720
So if you did more of that,

990
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:28,400
you could create that experience

991
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:30,200
for the person you're working with.

992
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:31,760
So when I work with small group,

993
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,560
my favorite thing is working with like three or four people

994
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:35,880
because I can do that.

995
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,760
My business mentor and my favorite mentor

996
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,240
is Monty Maldon taught me this exact same principle

997
00:46:41,240 --> 00:46:44,440
because I have so much scar tissue

998
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:49,440
and so many theoretical black eyes,

999
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:52,200
broken jaws from people upset at me

1000
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:55,040
for giving real sincere feedback,

1001
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:56,200
people who didn't want it.

1002
00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:57,720
He said, Jackson, your problem is

1003
00:46:57,720 --> 00:46:59,160
you're the only dog to kick.

1004
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:00,400
You're the only dog to kick.

1005
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:03,960
And I was like, wow, like I feel that.

1006
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,880
I can feel that when you're in a one-on-one setting,

1007
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:10,840
trying to help somebody get out of their own way,

1008
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:12,000
they don't wanna be touched.

1009
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:13,120
They don't wanna be told.

1010
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:14,480
They don't wanna be instructed.

1011
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:16,760
They don't wanna be treated like children, et cetera.

1012
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:20,840
It can be a very difficult, painful process

1013
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:24,320
for both people to effectively move the needle.

1014
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:26,640
So I love that, what you revealed there, visionaries,

1015
00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,800
this applies to your team members as well

1016
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,480
and being able to train them to improve.

1017
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,920
It applies probably with your kids

1018
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:36,920
and your own household environments.

1019
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:40,240
It might just be something that you decide to explore.

1020
00:47:40,240 --> 00:47:41,840
What I would add onto it though,

1021
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:45,080
is picking up the book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team.

1022
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:46,600
If you're gonna move into an environment

1023
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:50,600
where you start exploring people's weaknesses

1024
00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:53,880
or people's opportunity for growth in a group environment,

1025
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:55,320
for me, that book by far,

1026
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,200
even though it's not research-led,

1027
00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:58,840
and it doesn't have all research notes,

1028
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,240
it is a 100% storybook.

1029
00:48:01,240 --> 00:48:02,680
Best way to read it is with Audible

1030
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:04,720
because there's 17 different personalities

1031
00:48:04,720 --> 00:48:05,880
and it's told to that story

1032
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:07,720
and the narrator does a good job.

1033
00:48:07,720 --> 00:48:09,880
It was a game-changing, life-changing-

1034
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,120
Five Dysfunctions of Team?

1035
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:15,440
The Five Dysfunctions of a Team by Patrick Lincione.

1036
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:16,760
It's one of my absolute favorite books.

1037
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,280
We have a poster similar to the one behind me here.

1038
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:20,600
My team designed it.

1039
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:22,000
We've integrated it.

1040
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,640
By the way, when anybody joins our company,

1041
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:26,640
that is required reading in the first week.

1042
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:28,400
They have to read that

1043
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:33,080
because the environment of a championship-level organization

1044
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:35,200
compared to every other type of organization,

1045
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:37,400
dysfunctional organization out there,

1046
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:38,440
there's different habits,

1047
00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:39,800
there's different ways of living,

1048
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,880
there's different ways of communicating,

1049
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:45,960
and it breaks it down in a way that's very non-threatening

1050
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:46,920
that allows you to realize,

1051
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,080
is this the type of place you wanna spend time with people

1052
00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:53,400
or do you want an environment where you can kind of hide

1053
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:55,120
and be lost and forgotten and then-

1054
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:56,960
And it sets the,

1055
00:48:59,240 --> 00:49:04,240
it's the contract you have with each other, right?

1056
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:06,480
That's right.

1057
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:10,040
Healthy boundaries, contracts, agreements, you know,

1058
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:10,880
what we-

1059
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,480
I remember that from my work with things

1060
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:16,240
like Project Adventure, which you may or may not know,

1061
00:49:16,240 --> 00:49:21,240
but it's experiential education space, right?

1062
00:49:21,240 --> 00:49:24,280
And working with teenagers,

1063
00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,920
like what's our contract with each other?

1064
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:28,880
It's our contract with each other.

1065
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:32,440
One of the things I'm doing with my own coaching,

1066
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:37,360
so like this 3MT community of 175 people,

1067
00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:39,920
the ones who get through to the finals,

1068
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:42,240
what are we doing for them next year?

1069
00:49:42,240 --> 00:49:44,320
And the people who do my workshops,

1070
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,880
what are we doing for them next year?

1071
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:51,880
And what I'm starting to do is build a community

1072
00:49:52,720 --> 00:49:55,400
of people who have been through the training.

1073
00:49:56,840 --> 00:50:01,240
And they have the language,

1074
00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:07,520
they're developing the skills to talk about presentations

1075
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:10,680
and to give feedback on presentations

1076
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:12,560
and to accept feedback

1077
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:17,560
in a way that we've been able to grow together over time.

1078
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,000
And the challenge always of working one-on-one

1079
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:27,840
with someone is you don't have that, right?

1080
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:32,840
You have to not only figure out what they need

1081
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:38,880
in order to take the next step,

1082
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,480
but then you also have to figure out

1083
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:47,440
how do I deliver this to them in a way that they can hear it?

1084
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:52,080
Because if you don't do that second part,

1085
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,800
knowing the first part doesn't do you any good.

1086
00:50:56,600 --> 00:51:01,600
You just tied two amazing formulas together for me

1087
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:03,680
that I had not previously tied together

1088
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:05,840
that are gonna be a massive impact on my future.

1089
00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:06,680
And I appreciate that.

1090
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:11,680
One is the idea, I'm a big believer that people

1091
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:13,360
become much healthier in life

1092
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,840
when they feel like they belong to something, right?

1093
00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:20,200
I already knew that and the community aspect as well,

1094
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:21,040
thank goodness.

1095
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:22,800
I learned that a long time ago,

1096
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,200
that's why all these online courses

1097
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:27,160
that are just online courses, they don't survive,

1098
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:28,000
they don't thrive.

1099
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,320
Compared to a university that has an alma mater

1100
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:31,160
that you belong to,

1101
00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:34,040
which is why they have stood the ground for so long.

1102
00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:37,120
They still have the optimizations to make to stay relevant

1103
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:38,320
for the next 100 years.

1104
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:42,640
But nonetheless, the idea of creating an environment,

1105
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:44,400
incubation where people belong,

1106
00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,920
and I didn't realize until you said it right there

1107
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:51,920
that people can't belong to me or with me as an individual.

1108
00:51:52,240 --> 00:51:54,200
I have to sleep, right?

1109
00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:55,600
I have to take time off.

1110
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:58,080
I have to focus on what I need to eat

1111
00:51:58,080 --> 00:51:59,600
and what I need to drink, et cetera.

1112
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,840
So if I'm just trying to make it about me,

1113
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,240
or any other entrepreneur visionaries,

1114
00:52:04,240 --> 00:52:05,680
and that means my relationship too,

1115
00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:07,520
looking back at my marriage,

1116
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,280
always is learning opportunities and realizing, man,

1117
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,480
we did the nomad lifestyle.

1118
00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:16,480
We had a very hard time establishing community.

1119
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:18,800
We had individual communities,

1120
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:20,600
but we didn't have a shared community.

1121
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:22,280
Not like somebody who's Jewish

1122
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,600
and stays central where they're at.

1123
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:27,640
Not like somebody who's LDS

1124
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,120
and has their career in the business,

1125
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,520
and has their congregation,

1126
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:34,200
or somebody who's Catholic,

1127
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,920
or it doesn't have to be, again, religious driven,

1128
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,280
but those are communities of basis that give people,

1129
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,480
that give units, family units,

1130
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:47,200
a sense of stability and belonging,

1131
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:52,200
where both partners coexist for a mutual purpose,

1132
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:54,200
and there's extreme power in that.

1133
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:57,080
So as you build that into what you're creating, Andy,

1134
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,280
and as I build that for what we're creating

1135
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:01,040
in first class business,

1136
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:02,800
it creates a certainty and a reason

1137
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:04,560
for people to wanna belong.

1138
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,480
And all you visionaries out there,

1139
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:09,480
the same opportunity is very true for you

1140
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:11,000
inside business and inside your family.

1141
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:12,280
Any final thoughts you wanna share

1142
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:13,960
before we wrap up today, Andy?

1143
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:17,160
So on that, I'll give you a trio,

1144
00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:20,440
because our brains work well with threes, right?

1145
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:21,280
Yeah.

1146
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:29,480
Known, needed, cared for.

1147
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:34,480
And that's part of, you know, that's what we all need.

1148
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,880
Known, needed, cared for.

1149
00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:40,200
Meaning we need to be known, we need to be needed,

1150
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:42,720
and we need to be cared for, or that's what we want?

1151
00:53:42,720 --> 00:53:44,000
That's what we want.

1152
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:44,840
That's what we want.

1153
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:46,400
That's what we want.

1154
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:49,840
You know, the guy, he passed away last year,

1155
00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:54,840
but he was my, you know, he was my,

1156
00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,600
maybe not my first mentor, but one of my first mentors.

1157
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:02,520
And he was the guy who ran the school

1158
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:04,760
that I was talking about earlier.

1159
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:09,760
And that was the driver behind the school.

1160
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:14,640
It wasn't about creating the discipline.

1161
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:18,320
It wasn't about trying to create the discipline

1162
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:21,280
that would force people to be successful.

1163
00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:22,640
Because we were working with a lot of kids

1164
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,120
who hadn't necessarily been successful in school.

1165
00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:26,480
They were struggling.

1166
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:28,800
It was a second, third chance school.

1167
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,680
But it was about them feeling no needed care for.

1168
00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:34,520
It's huge.

1169
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:39,520
And then within that safe space, wanting to be successful.

1170
00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:44,000
Is there a secular book that talks about this concept

1171
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:45,360
that you're familiar with?

1172
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:47,720
I asked that, and here's why.

1173
00:54:47,720 --> 00:54:49,680
As a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ

1174
00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:51,440
of Latter-day Saints myself,

1175
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:53,680
that's a formula we followed.

1176
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,520
I just didn't connect it to those words

1177
00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:58,680
because our responsibilities or opportunities was,

1178
00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,080
make sure that the new member or the investigator

1179
00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:03,080
connects to the bishopric, the leaders in charge.

1180
00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:05,440
Make sure that they're known by them.

1181
00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:07,960
Two, make sure that they have an assignment,

1182
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:11,040
an opportunity to contribute that they're needed.

1183
00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:14,000
And three, make sure that they have a friend,

1184
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:16,520
and that friend and family that takes care of them.

1185
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:18,800
So it was known, needed, cared for.

1186
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:21,760
Maybe the concept, and so Preach My Gospel

1187
00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,320
is the resource that I have to reach back into

1188
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:26,440
and study further and meditate on

1189
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:28,600
how does this apply to my business.

1190
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:30,080
But if there's another book

1191
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:31,280
that people are more comfortable with

1192
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:33,200
that doesn't mention Jesus 3,000 times,

1193
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,040
then I'd love to know if you know of it.

1194
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:38,720
I don't know where, I don't know the origin of that.

1195
00:55:38,720 --> 00:55:40,400
Okay, well we will rest there.

1196
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:42,760
Maybe somebody will fill that in in the comments

1197
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,640
and let us know if you've heard of that before.

1198
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:49,120
If not, well awesome, we all just got a fantastic,

1199
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:53,240
divine source of inspiration in my humble opinion.

1200
00:55:53,240 --> 00:55:54,720
As far as landing pages go,

1201
00:55:54,720 --> 00:55:56,800
if you wanna connect with Andy,

1202
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:58,720
you'll be able to see that in the action steps

1203
00:55:58,720 --> 00:56:00,760
below the episode on our landing page.

1204
00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:02,820
If you wanna share your visions with us,

1205
00:56:02,820 --> 00:56:04,040
then in the top corner of the page,

1206
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:06,200
you'll see a button that says Be Our Guest.

1207
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,360
We would love to hear your wholesome visions.

1208
00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,480
You don't have to be Tony Robbins

1209
00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:12,640
or Michael Jordan to join us,

1210
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:15,120
but Tony and Mike, dude, we'd love to have you both.

1211
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:17,280
So throw that out there.

1212
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:19,880
And it's been a real honor to share our visions with you.

1213
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,440
If you have comments, definitely make them.

1214
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,240
If you have people who would benefit from this process,

1215
00:56:25,240 --> 00:56:26,080
tag them in this.

1216
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:28,280
You never know whose life you're blessed in the process

1217
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:30,400
and we will see you on the next episode.

1218
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:31,920
Andy, thanks for being here today, man.

1219
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:32,760
Jackson, thanks for having me.

1220
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:33,840
Thank you for being here today.

1221
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:36,320
I'm really happy that you tuned in to Vision Pros Live.

1222
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,960
I'm looking forward to seeing your reactions

00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:41,240
as these episodes continue to move forward.

1224
00:56:41,240 --> 00:56:42,960
This is gonna get more and more fun.

1225
00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:44,760
We'll have more and more engagement as well.

1226

We invite people to participate in the show

1227

Have an excellent time.
