284: Power to QUIT Quickly, The Rock, Arnold, and Crunch Time Quitting

Scott Mulvaney — Tue, 09 Jul 2019 13:00:00 +0000

Succeed through the power of Quitting today, so let’s Quit Quickly!:

Dr. Stanley G. Robertson grew up in a project building on the south side of Chicago. He pleaded temporary insanity and joined the Marine Corps; then trained as a lawyer and earned a doctorate in business. Jack Canfield, the creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul, calls Dr. Stan the coolest person he knows; and predicts that Dr. Stan’s new book Quit will be a bestseller.

Dr. Stan has come to be known as “the quit doctor” because of his relentless determination to heal the world of the stigma and shame associated with the concept of quitting. He is an author, coach, and speaker.

A professional football player quit during halftime. A military commander quit his troops to be with his family. People who quit are often ridiculed and shamed because we are a hyper-performance-based society where “quit” is a dirty word.

But without the ability to quit, it is impossible to achieve success. No one knows this better than Dr. Stan. He quit the Marine Corps and earned a law degree, and quit being a thief and earned a doctorate.

There are countless situations of everyday individuals who struggle over the decision to quit because of the emotional stigma associated with the concept.

But the notion that “winners never quit” is a myth. The truth is that winners quit all the time. Michael Jordan quit baseball and won a 3-peat; Thomas Jefferson quit Great Britain and started America; The Rock quit wrestling and became an action star; Arnold Schwarzenegger quit being an action star and became a governor.

Top 4 Hot Points – Stan’s Steps to Q.U.I.T.:

Quit Quickly
Understand the Negative Emotions
Initiate New Goals
Transform Your Behavior

[spp-timestamp time=”00:30″] Introduction
[spp-timestamp time=”10:00″] She said I quit. Okay, so quitting is good. This is the point. Quitting is a good thing. Quitting frees you, it’s how we’re locked into the cycle. Why should you continue swimming? This is not a priority. This is not at the top of my list, so I’m, pushing it down on the list.
[spp-timestamp time=”20:00″] My point is that now if she finally gave up the relationship, she gave up the business. She was overweight. She had been fat-shamed and all this stuff, not just by her but in general, others. Then she lost all the weight after she left him for good, to rebuild herself.
[spp-timestamp time=”30:00″] If you do a lot of things and you quit a lot of things, the more things you quit, the faster you’re going to get to where you’re trying to go. So people who are okay with quitting, people who are okay with making mistakes, they’re going to get there a lot faster than the person who says I can’t make this mistake.
[spp-timestamp time=”40:00″] What are you going to do next? How do you get from point A to point B? There is a process that you go through, there are some steps that you should engage in. There are four steps to help you through this.
[spp-timestamp time=”50:00″] Those guys recognize that if they are going to be successful, they need to know when to give up something and reposition themselves. Quit if you’re doing it because you just don’t like the thing and you don’t enjoy it anymore. Quit, if you’re doing it because you’re not good at it. If you’re doing it because life circumstances dictate that you do something different, then great, quit. These are all good reasons to give up things.
[spp-timestamp time=”01:02:30″] Final Words

Final Words:

There’s one thing and it relates to this concept of quitting and that is that one of the things that I encourage people to do is create for themselves a quick list. So a quick list is just something that you can commit to. It is for where things go that you can give up in your life that are no longer serving you. For example, you just decide that these don’t work for me or you don’t want to do it anymore, it’s a dead end. If it’s not giving you any good return for your investment, whatever the issue is, create this list and call it your quit list. Take that list to identify the areas in your life where you need to purge and then figure out what things you can give up to make yourself better so that you can get to your goals and your success a lot faster.

[spp-timestamp time=”00:30″] Introduction
[spp-timestamp time=”29:30″] If you are operating at a nine out of 10, and a nine out of 10 means clarity, focus, energy, drive, productivity, happiness, all the studies show that happy people are wealthier, healthier people that tend to be happier and have good habits. Okay, if you just go from a seven to a nine, chances are, you are going to go from 50 grand to something approaching 100 grand, at least now you’re in a job, and you’re phoning it in, and your bosses like, Imagine if you’re nine out of 10, and all of a sudden, you come in, you go, Hey, I got this great idea for this thing. Let’s do this. Well, you start selling more, or you start going the extra mile, your chances of getting up promotion increase exponentially. which results in could be $10,000 more, $25,000 more. Maybe you all of a sudden go I’m too big for this damn company. I’m so damn good. I’m going to put myself on the market. And then another company comes in and hires you and offers you 120,000.
[spp-timestamp time=”32:54″] I’m an entrepreneur, you’re an entrepreneur, and especially with entrepreneurs who have the ability to go out and just create their own universe, you know, I mean, everyone can, but I like talking to entrepreneurs. There’s a there’s a guy called Kevin who is in my program I have called Project 90 and Project 90 is essentially, coaches, entrepreneurs who drink into quitting alcohol for at least 90 days. So they can see the huge benefits that they can get from that.

224: Social Media Artificial Intelligence with Lately

Scott Mulvaney — Fri, 26 Oct 2018 14:00:00 +0000

It is time for Davids To Become Goliaths with Artificial Intelligence for your marketing. Kate Bradley Chernis is the Founder & CEO of Lately, an AI-powered marketing dashboard:

Kate Bradley Chernis is the Founder & CEO of Lately, an AI-powered marketing dashboard that’s reinventing the marketing process to give individual marketers the power to create and scale smarter, more consistent messaging. With Lately, Davids become Goliaths with Artificial Intelligence.

As a former marketing agency owner, Kate, initially created the idea for Lately out of spreadsheets for then-client, Walmart. Well, not just Walmart. It was a partnership between Walmart, United Way Worldwide, National Disability Institute, and tens of thousands of local, small business and nonprofit affiliates who were all using her spreadsheet system – because they all had the same problems: a lack of coordination, widespread redundancies, no visibility and no organization. With Kate’s spreadsheet system, they achieved a 130%, three year, year-over-year ROI.

In fact, Kate found similar success with all of her clients, regardless of industry or company size. So, along with one heck of a superhero team, she created Lately to organize the mess, automate repetitive processes and eliminate the “overwhelming” feeling that every marketer she’d ever met had complained about.

Prior to founding Lately, Kate served 20 million listeners as Music Director and on-air host at Sirius/XM. She’s also an award-winning radio producer, engineer and voice talent with 25 years of national broadcast communications, brand-building, sales and marketing expertise.

Final Words:

Listen to your instincts, especially if you are a woman, because we have very good instincts but we tend to ignore them the most. If you don’t, they’ll scream at you. You just may have pain and other things. It’s amazing how much your instincts really kick in, you know, it wakes you up in the middle of the night. I find that I constantly need to be reminded that I know. People have invested in me because I know. It’s right here…
