WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.879 Scott Spate, what is your vision currently? My 00:00:04.879 --> 00:00:09.740 vision is to reach a million people, especially 00:00:09.740 --> 00:00:14.039 men, to help them become so much more bold in 00:00:14.039 --> 00:00:16.019 their faith with their families and with their 00:00:16.019 --> 00:00:19.620 leadership. Because I think leadership is bigger 00:00:19.620 --> 00:00:21.820 than just in your workplace. It's in your community, 00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:23.579 it's in your family, it's in everything that 00:00:23.579 --> 00:00:27.940 you do. And we need people to be more bold today. 00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:32.460 in there in those three areas and it's and it's 00:00:32.460 --> 00:00:35.460 not about you know putting something out there 00:00:35.460 --> 00:00:38.579 and and having free speech as we're as we're 00:00:38.579 --> 00:00:40.619 seeing right now going around it's really about 00:00:40.619 --> 00:00:42.579 just taking a stand for what you believe and 00:00:42.579 --> 00:00:45.579 being authentic and having integrity oh i love 00:00:45.579 --> 00:00:47.799 it scott i'm gonna we're two mathematicians with 00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:50.700 chalkboards right now going crazy uh we have 00:00:50.700 --> 00:00:52.679 a saying in first class business we actually 00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:55.960 have the Leadership Academy of First Class Business. 00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:58.859 And our saying is leadership is a lifestyle. 00:00:59.700 --> 00:01:01.960 That's exactly what it's about. Our principles 00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:05.280 of leadership are love, patience, persistence, 00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:08.400 consistency, and reliability. And that's what 00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:11.599 everything that we build goes back to. And it's 00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:13.620 because of great leaders like yourself. It's 00:01:13.620 --> 00:01:16.519 because of learning from the United States military. 00:01:17.099 --> 00:01:20.219 um and saluting the flag and growing up in texas 00:01:20.219 --> 00:01:22.760 where i got to learn about those aspects and 00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:24.920 boy scouts of america and beyond there's so many 00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:28.140 factors that helped me with my leadership um 00:01:28.140 --> 00:01:31.420 in terms of of leadership then in terms of the 00:01:31.420 --> 00:01:34.299 mastermind what do you see for yourself in the 00:01:34.299 --> 00:01:36.519 future for guiding that and the million men that 00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:39.200 that dive into that because it's this is a i 00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:41.900 have found it's been a hard world to be able 00:01:41.900 --> 00:01:45.159 to not just stick to those principles but sometimes 00:01:45.159 --> 00:01:49.980 those principles lead to others you know not 00:01:49.980 --> 00:01:51.859 wanting to work with you and that can be somebody 00:01:51.859 --> 00:01:53.439 as simple as saying like i don't like your woo 00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:56.340 woo stuff um you know hey you're too touchy -feely 00:01:56.340 --> 00:01:59.939 or you're too commanding um you know you're trying 00:01:59.939 --> 00:02:02.780 to domineer and you're narcissistic because you're 00:02:02.780 --> 00:02:05.659 leading like there's lots of labels that come 00:02:05.659 --> 00:02:07.920 out these days and and misinterpretations of 00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:10.379 what leadership is and of course there's the 00:02:10.379 --> 00:02:12.419 hitler side of leadership you know leading with 00:02:12.419 --> 00:02:14.879 hate and controlling people with manipulation 00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:18.509 and coercion so How does a man step in to full 00:02:18.509 --> 00:02:22.409 integrity and authentically guide others and 00:02:22.409 --> 00:02:26.389 bless other people's lives when so many people 00:02:26.389 --> 00:02:30.990 want to tear that down? Great question. And I 00:02:30.990 --> 00:02:33.310 think the biggest thing that comes to mind is, 00:02:33.469 --> 00:02:39.289 you know, when we as men decide to become vulnerable, 00:02:39.469 --> 00:02:44.009 that's when critical growth takes place. And 00:02:44.009 --> 00:02:46.909 as you were talking, I was thinking about, When 00:02:46.909 --> 00:02:49.150 somebody comes at you with those things that 00:02:49.150 --> 00:02:51.789 they're accusing you of, they're struggling in 00:02:51.789 --> 00:02:53.250 their own life with some of that very thing. 00:02:54.389 --> 00:02:57.870 And it's their way of saying, I don't want to 00:02:57.870 --> 00:03:01.509 deal and I don't want to face my own crap. And 00:03:01.509 --> 00:03:04.830 my mastermind is not about dealing and it's not 00:03:04.830 --> 00:03:06.949 about counseling. It's about moving forward. 00:03:07.469 --> 00:03:10.310 It's about men surrounding each other, coming 00:03:10.310 --> 00:03:13.009 together and saying, hey, I'm struggling in this 00:03:13.009 --> 00:03:16.639 area. You know, I telling telling a group of 00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:19.080 men, these these groups are 10 or less. So it's 00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:22.699 a little bit more intimate. Looking across the 00:03:22.699 --> 00:03:25.900 room and saying to somebody, you know, I am struggling 00:03:25.900 --> 00:03:29.719 with porn or I, you know, my marriage is on the 00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:33.840 rocks or I'm struggling in my work. I'm not a 00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:36.280 good dad. I've been gone, you know, away from 00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:39.419 my family. I've been whatever they're struggling 00:03:39.419 --> 00:03:43.750 with. Coming together and being vulnerable. And 00:03:43.750 --> 00:03:47.030 I always tell my students, because I train chaplains, 00:03:47.030 --> 00:03:49.270 men and women, I say the more vulnerable you 00:03:49.270 --> 00:03:52.330 are, the more you're going to grow. And that's 00:03:52.330 --> 00:03:55.469 the bottom line. And I've been reading, not to 00:03:55.469 --> 00:03:57.629 give a shout out to her, but I've been reading 00:03:57.629 --> 00:03:59.830 Brene Brown's book, Dare to Lead. And that's 00:03:59.830 --> 00:04:01.789 exactly what she starts with. I'm getting ready 00:04:01.789 --> 00:04:04.969 to teach that to a bunch of soldiers in a few 00:04:04.969 --> 00:04:07.909 months. And that's exactly what she starts out 00:04:07.909 --> 00:04:11.870 with, vulnerability. That's critical. And I think 00:04:11.870 --> 00:04:14.889 that's where you start is looking inward instead 00:04:14.889 --> 00:04:16.790 of looking out and saying, OK, what do I need? 00:04:16.870 --> 00:04:21.329 Where do I where do I need to grow? Absolutely. 00:04:21.870 --> 00:04:25.129 And now you mentioned on here peak performance. 00:04:25.689 --> 00:04:29.389 Right. And going forward with that. So I don't 00:04:29.389 --> 00:04:30.790 mean to lead the witness a little bit, but I 00:04:30.790 --> 00:04:33.430 just I see you emulating it. So so I will there. 00:04:33.529 --> 00:04:36.629 You mentioned talking about the problem. or the 00:04:36.629 --> 00:04:38.689 challenges that may exist in life and i think 00:04:38.689 --> 00:04:40.670 it's important not to ignore because life can 00:04:40.670 --> 00:04:43.009 be overwhelming on the flip side though peak 00:04:43.009 --> 00:04:45.610 performance typically moves from the the survival 00:04:45.610 --> 00:04:49.170 method into a position of thriving from survive 00:04:49.170 --> 00:04:52.790 to thrive how does that how does that play into 00:04:52.790 --> 00:04:55.930 the mastermind and how do you guys balance the 00:04:55.930 --> 00:05:00.350 art of of diving into excellence while also making 00:05:00.350 --> 00:05:02.649 sure that you make room for those who are struggling 00:05:02.649 --> 00:05:04.629 at a point where problems kind of all they can 00:05:04.629 --> 00:05:08.839 see So I actually wrote a book several years 00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:10.579 ago called Living Your Life in Peak Performance. 00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:14.680 Stop playing small. And I kind of I kind of related 00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:19.000 the book to, you know, NFL players versus a college 00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:21.779 high school football player or an NBA player 00:05:21.779 --> 00:05:25.139 versus there's only a select few that reach that 00:05:25.139 --> 00:05:29.199 level. But in life, we've all got the potential 00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:34.120 to reach a level that is beyond what we we could 00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:37.100 ever think or imagine. I think we hold ourselves 00:05:37.100 --> 00:05:40.519 back. And so when I think about peak performance, 00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:44.600 I think about somebody that says, OK, I am willing 00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:47.740 to step up and do the things that nobody else 00:05:47.740 --> 00:05:51.720 is willing to do. And so a lot of times when 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:54.899 I teach groups, I talk about the fact that, you 00:05:54.899 --> 00:05:57.639 know, somebody is inside of a house and they 00:05:57.639 --> 00:05:59.500 see that, you know, they need to get out. They 00:05:59.500 --> 00:06:01.920 need to go. They need to go do something. But 00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:04.180 they kind of get to the to the door and they're 00:06:04.180 --> 00:06:07.199 like that. I'm not I'm not exactly ready to to 00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:10.399 do this. And so, you know, they hold themselves 00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:15.120 back and then they go to they may they may get 00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:17.120 enough courage and they try to get to the car 00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:21.300 and they say, OK, I can get to the car, but I'm 00:06:21.300 --> 00:06:24.500 still not ready to go full out. But that individual 00:06:24.500 --> 00:06:27.279 that is willing to get to the car, get out on 00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:30.000 the highway, push forward, chase after their 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.290 dreams, whatever they may be. then I think that 00:06:34.290 --> 00:06:36.750 they find that they are a lot happier in life. 00:06:36.889 --> 00:06:38.910 They find their joy. They find their purpose 00:06:38.910 --> 00:06:41.449 in life. And that kind of goes back to, you know, 00:06:41.449 --> 00:06:43.769 so many people, what's my purpose in life? What 00:06:43.769 --> 00:06:47.089 do you love doing? You know, your purpose doesn't 00:06:47.089 --> 00:06:49.069 have to be a career or a job. Your purpose can 00:06:49.069 --> 00:06:51.550 be, as you, as you talked about earlier, being 00:06:51.550 --> 00:06:55.329 a dad. Yeah. What do you, you know, if, if you 00:06:55.329 --> 00:06:58.670 focused on being a great dad, are you a peak 00:06:58.670 --> 00:07:03.870 performing father to your four kids? Yeah. And 00:07:03.870 --> 00:07:07.250 I think it's we can we can narrow that down to 00:07:07.250 --> 00:07:10.569 am I am I a peak performer in these in these 00:07:10.569 --> 00:07:13.889 core areas in my life? Going back to your leadership 00:07:13.889 --> 00:07:17.110 academy, the five pillars. Right. Am I a peak 00:07:17.110 --> 00:07:19.569 performer in all of these areas or am I just 00:07:19.569 --> 00:07:23.149 struggling in one bucket? I think Dan Miller 00:07:23.149 --> 00:07:26.329 that wrote he's passed away now, 48 days to the 00:07:26.329 --> 00:07:30.670 work you love. He equates that to having a car 00:07:30.670 --> 00:07:34.350 and an air and all four tires. If one tire is 00:07:34.350 --> 00:07:37.029 flat, then the car is not going to go very well. 00:07:37.149 --> 00:07:39.389 And so having that same balance in your life, 00:07:39.509 --> 00:07:42.410 if there's air in all five of those pillars in 00:07:42.410 --> 00:07:43.850 your life, whatever they may be, they're going 00:07:43.850 --> 00:07:46.589 to be different for everybody, right? Absolutely. 00:07:47.370 --> 00:07:50.089 But if you're focused on making sure that all 00:07:50.089 --> 00:07:52.730 those areas that are important to you, your values 00:07:52.730 --> 00:07:55.389 and your vision are important, you're going to 00:07:55.389 --> 00:07:59.709 be successful in that area. I love it, Scott. 00:08:01.180 --> 00:08:03.060 Make a few plugs here if that's okay with you. 00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:06.779 Are you okay with that? Absolutely. This is featuring 00:08:06.779 --> 00:08:09.240 your vision, but, man, we've got so many things 00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:12.899 that overlap. And it's also just such value to 00:08:12.899 --> 00:08:14.959 the audience that I want to make sure to honor 00:08:14.959 --> 00:08:16.660 the resources that we have for all of you listening 00:08:16.660 --> 00:08:18.860 in. So I'm going to show two different screens. 00:08:19.060 --> 00:08:22.620 We've been building these AI widgets, these interactive 00:08:22.620 --> 00:08:26.279 pages that are just blowing my mind. I cannot 00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:28.259 believe we built this. I built the first one 00:08:28.259 --> 00:08:30.339 on accident. We'll talk about that in another 00:08:30.339 --> 00:08:33.340 show. But Passion Pro here, this is a program 00:08:33.340 --> 00:08:36.779 I built years ago. And I've been meaning to pull 00:08:36.779 --> 00:08:39.080 it into more interactive user interface. But 00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:41.970 this is to help you. find what that purpose is 00:08:41.970 --> 00:08:44.470 in life and live a life of fulfillment um and 00:08:44.470 --> 00:08:45.769 so you're going to get the links that you can 00:08:45.769 --> 00:08:47.830 dive into this and figure out what your passions 00:08:47.830 --> 00:08:50.389 are this is designed for everybody from career 00:08:50.389 --> 00:08:53.870 experts to mothers and fathers and teenagers 00:08:53.870 --> 00:08:55.610 who are looking for what is it that i want to 00:08:55.610 --> 00:08:57.370 be remembered for you know what is it that i 00:08:57.370 --> 00:08:59.490 really want to live for and in addition to that 00:08:59.490 --> 00:09:01.649 you mentioned this concept of those tires and 00:09:01.649 --> 00:09:04.279 wheels Fletcher Ellingson is one of my personal 00:09:04.279 --> 00:09:06.659 coaches. He's a phenomenal coach. He's now a 00:09:06.659 --> 00:09:09.940 co -host of the show and he's got his life wheel. 00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:12.559 And so he gave me a piece of paper with these 00:09:12.559 --> 00:09:14.620 things on it and told me to color it in. And 00:09:14.620 --> 00:09:16.899 he's like, did you print it out? I said, what 00:09:16.899 --> 00:09:20.559 does it mean to print? And of course I messed 00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:23.399 him a little bit, but we did it. virtually and 00:09:23.399 --> 00:09:25.200 we didn't have this so i plugged this in the 00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:28.220 chat gbt and asked it to build something and 00:09:28.220 --> 00:09:30.720 it literally built this page it took me about 00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:33.659 four hours total to build what i would consider 00:09:33.659 --> 00:09:38.039 a 50 000 system and just again i didn't really 00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:40.159 prompt it with that much and it helped me build 00:09:40.159 --> 00:09:43.379 this whole thing um and the whole point of this 00:09:43.379 --> 00:09:45.639 wheel up here is if you can see that okay if 00:09:45.639 --> 00:09:48.100 your self image is low then your tire's flat 00:09:48.100 --> 00:09:51.080 in that area of life and so you want to start 00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:53.259 working on that side of your life so that you 00:09:53.259 --> 00:09:55.179 start creating more balance in what you have. 00:09:55.299 --> 00:09:57.320 So right along with what you were talking about. 00:09:57.919 --> 00:09:59.960 Thank you, Scott, for playing the seat on that. 00:10:00.019 --> 00:10:03.200 My friends, if you guys go to let us see, is 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:06.779 it go global mastermind dot com? You can find 00:10:06.779 --> 00:10:08.779 out more about the mastermind that Scott has 00:10:08.779 --> 00:10:10.620 built out. Of course, you can find his book on 00:10:10.620 --> 00:10:13.279 Amazon. We just looked at that. And I highly 00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:16.059 recommend staying close to leaders like Scott. 00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:17.639 That's what I do.
