We believe that to stand out you have to take risks and challenge the status quo. On the show, we uncover the secret tips, tactics and characteristics of our guests with unusual questions and unique segments. This is not your typical business show asking typical interview questions.

“Spineating: The human tendency to speak without thinking.” – Dr. Murlon Dye
“Organizations work, or don’t, because of great leaders…who are thinking about, ‘How do I help my team reconnect with its purpose?”
“Change doesn’t fail because we don’t know how to do change management. It doesn’t fail because of faulty management, it fails because of faulty leadership.”
“It’s never about the knowledge. It’s always about the emotional readiness to do something. It’s about that push to get there. And what pushes us? Crisis or pain or a really big opportunity.”
“Sometimes the promise of changing the world turns out to be just another job doing things.”
“Everybody says today you have to find your why…I’m not against having your why, I’m not against finding your purpose, I’m not against having passion, but I also know that some days you just gotta go do the work. Because sometime your passion will go away.”
“Ask me questions that will lead to new opportunities…The quality of the answers that we get in our life are in direct proportion to the quality of the questions that we ask.”
“We often define ourselves by our past, not by our potential.”
“A lot of companies are saying, ‘I want to have an excellent culture’. I look at it differently. I want you to have a culture of excellence.”
“The middle of the organization is where change goes to die.”

“The riches of your life are the riches of your relationships.”
“My grandfather gave me the worst business advice ever…Choose who you drink with because you can’t choose who you work with.”
“I think that’s such a false thing. Work-life balance. You don’t segment your life…Your work supports your life, it’s not that your life supports your work.”
“What you have to do is acknowledge your past, but don’t let it define your future.”
“The goal is not home runs, it’s base hits and walks when you can get them”
“Once light hits something, suddenly the monster isn’t as scary.”
“Self-awareness is so tough with all of the distractions in this world…and sometimes you have to do stuff that forces you to be still and listen. Because the only person in the world you can change is yourself.”

“People have had their core values just collapse and that’s why we’re facing all the issues that we are right now… It’s because we don’t have core values of honesty and integrity. We don’t do the right thing. We’re doing the convenient thing and what serves us best instead of what serves others best and adds value to their lives. And that’s where success comes from”
“Words are not enough. You gotta live it every single day in the way that you provide service and in your products.”
“You already have a brand. Your brand is what your customers say about you behind your back!”
“I realized what makes me happiest is me doing my best…I know that if my goal is to be the very best I can possibly be, then I will bring excellence to the marketplace and if I serve others through that excellence, that’s how I take care of me.”
“I just always figured, why not me? Nothing I was ever really willing to try to do, was going to kill me. Nobody ever died asking for the sale.”
“Here’s what I discovered, people don’t listen to what you have to say, don’t even believe what you have to say. But they always listen to see if you believe what you say.”
“I don’t think you’re any good for anybody else until you’re first good for yourself.”
“Dreams don’t come true, plans come true…. I’m not going to invest in a dream, I’ll invest in a plan.”
“The biggest enemy of success is success.”
“If you really are searching out somebody to work with you or mentor you…know that you have to offer them something”
“One of the keys to wealth…[figure] out how to leverage other people’s markets and other people’s knowledge. I think that’s when we will all win.”
“Being memorable makes you stand out in business and in life…Never go any place where they won’t remember you were there.”
