#394 Mercy, mercy...have more diversity

Send us a text Diversity is what we call in the South a gumbo (mouth waters 🤤)...it’s a mixture of unlike things. Businesses want to be diverse in their mix of employees & management...Netflix is diverse in what shows they offer you...but when it comes to our own lives we often lack diversity...we lack unlikeness. We hang, watch, & discuss things with people who act, think, & are like us & over time it’s made you rigid in thought, hostile @ times, & inflexible. Today’s episo...

Send us a text This week’s title & thoughts come from Austin Kleon’s book, “Keep Going.” I love Austin’s books because they have pictures (😂) & aren’t very long reads. ⭐️Today’s episode urges you to stop chasing your nouns in Life, i.e. positions, titles, statuses & just do your verb.

#391 Never trust the Dopamine!

Send us a text Steven Kotler (who wrote one of my favorite books “The Rise of Superman”) said on a recent podcast w/ Michael Gervais, “Rule #1: Never trust the dopamine.” Dopamine is the neurochemical that is released into your system when you get recognized, likes, retweets, or reach celebrity status. ⭐️The danger with chasing the dopamine is you never get off the treadmill of chasing the next praise, soliciting the next round of applause, and craving the next compliment & in doing so, you ...

You have an edge, but often you look at your edge as a ledge- afraid that if you take the leap, there’s no coming back. But, “Life is not one leap...it’s a series of leaps.” Tommy Baker. ⭐️Time to get leapin’. 😉💪 Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marshbuice/mess...

#389 You know where to find me!

Send us a text Today's episode is deeply personal for me & was a revelation after I read an interview between Howard Stern and Hip Hop's first Billionaire Jay Z, retold in his self titled book, "Howard Stern Comes Again." Jay told Stern of his anger he had with his father who abandoned his wife and children to avenge the death of his brother. At age 12 Jay & his fractured family were left to fight and survive the harsh, crack-filled streets of Brooklyn, NY alone. A mo...

#387 "Of" Moments

Send us a text When I was reading Tommy Baker's book, "The Leap of Your Life" he mentioned a book that peaked my curiosity titled, "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway," by Susan Jeffers, so I started reading that one too :) In it, Jeffers writes, "You are not responsible for all of the experiences IN your Life, but you are responsible for the experiences OF your Life." As I continued reading, I kept coming back to that thought. You are going to have some bad shit h...

Send us a text During an interview, Sam Jones complemented actor Jeff Daniel's pragmatism and professionalism.

Best of: Can you write your own symphony?

Send us a text Charlie Munger wrote, “The man who can play all instruments can write his own symphony, but the man who can play one instrument is limited to just playing his part.” Munger’s symphony is “investing” & his instruments are the businesses he’s developed a deep understanding for. That’s what’s earned him billionaire status.~ If your success has wained, it’s probably because you’re playing too few of instruments.

Best of: What you miss becomes your momentum.

Send us a text With nearly 400 episodes in the can, it’s easy to forget something that we talked about 300 episodes ago. This episode was Episode #112 & I think it’s worth replaying bc when we miss...when we fail, fall, or miss out, we normally beat ourselves up with either “I should’ve jumped on the opportunity,” or “I bombed this one.” But keep in mind the results will vary...but the feedback is constant. Keep making the adjustments and what you “miss” is just a part of your Momentum Train...

#375 It’s better to become over time than overnight.

Send us a text In the book, “The 1% Rule” Tommy Baker writes that you should not be fooled when you see someone who is labeled as an “overnight” success bc what you don’t see are all of the rejections, disses, boos, arguments, & desperate moments it took to get there. The times they played to a crowd of 3; had to sleep 7 in a sleazy motel room; the times they were cheated & wanted to quit. They weren’t a success overnight...they became a success over time. 💪Today’s podcast is a wink, ki...

Send us a text Today's episode is inspired by a chapter in comedian Chris Gethard's b ook (not sure if that's a stage name or not :), "Lose Well." He writes, "When we decide we want to shift the standard of our life to include something new and out of the box, we tend to spend a lot of time apologizing for it and justifying it..."

Send us a text So we know the definition of faith is “the substance of things hoped for & the evidence of things not yet seen.” In Sales..& in Life we must have faith, but sometimes when adversity leans in too much, we lose our faith & end up settling thinking it just wasn’t our time.
