In this episode, the guys discuss Theodore Roosevelt’s "Man In The Arena" quote that provides a thoughtful perspective on criticism. In order to survive criticism, you have to adopt the mindset needed to push through it.  It takes discipline to ignore all the critical chatter in your ear while you continue doing what you do even when the results are not evident.

Do you believe favor and favoritism have a place in the workplace? In this episode, the guys discuss favoritism in the workplace and what that really means. When you produce, execute, and don't need to be "managed" at work, favoritism naturally occurs. When execution is worshipped, those who regularly execute at the highest levels become the "favorites" by default. If you're not a "work favorite," there's probably a reason why.

Are you a problem solver? Do you complete what you started? In this episode, the guys discuss being solution-oriented and fixing areas in your life that need improving or things that need completion around the house. A lot of us waste time and the numerous opportunities that life gives us. Instead, we need to take Karl’s advice to, “Put your head down and focus on expanding your value so that you can cover 10 years of growth in 6 months.”

In this episode, the guys discuss the importance of making decisions and seeking feedback from the right people to help you grow rather than remaining in the same space, growing stagnant.

In this episode, the guys, alongside guest motivational speaker Inky Johnson, discuss how to change the preset narratives about race & money by operating in facts versus feelings. When it comes to past events, it's essential to have accurate information that promotes a genuine reaction rather than reacting the way someone thinks you should. We should always seek to work and move on principle, never emotion. We should value facts over feelings, always.  Listener Perks Get fresh pre-measured ingredients delivered to your door with Hello Fresh.

As you go through your life's journey, you will be presented with opportunities to work with, invest in, and support others. It is a Biblical standard for you to teach others what you know. However, there is a right way and a wrong way to share your knowledge and wisdom with others. In this episode, the guys discuss how to be strategic in providing information to others while planting the seeds, allowing you to control your life. They share words of wisdom and caution such as: Don't throw pearls before swine. By all means, help people develop but, don't just give stuff away. People respect what they have to earn. When they don't earn it, they don't value it as much. Make sure when you're negotiating with others that the outcome is win-win.

Are opportunities given or created? In today’s episode, the guys wrestle with this concept and settle on the fact that regardless of how the opportunity originated, what matters most is what we do with it. Through colorful stories (including one about salmon) and some good old fashioned advice, the guys implore us to always seek to be faithful to the opportunities we have and get the most out of them.

In life, all of us have roles, responsibilities, and goals to accomplish and fulfill. In order to be successful, the guys discuss knowing your role and doing it to the best of your ability. No matter what your role is, whether that is being a leader or supporter on a team, make sure you're maximizing your position to ensure success. Doing so will always begin with taking action.

As we embark on the New Year, the guys take some time to wrestle with an internal crisis that many of us struggle with at one time or another. There are some situations that warrant having crazy faith. This is where you believe in a positive or promised end, that is not currently visible. This standpoint is contrasted with circumstances in which you are so blinded by what you want, that you are unable to see it for what it is, despite all the contextual clues.

This week, in the spirit of the Holiday Season, the guys are joined by nationally syndicated radio personality, activist, actor, & musician, Willie Moore Jr., who engages in a candid and moving dialogue about his life’s journey including being adopted at the age of three months, his journey as an R&B/Hip-Hop artist, rejection from his biological mother, hitting rock bottom financially, and ultimately his rise to the success that he experiences today.

“Every bite of food that I was talking, was having an effect on my genetic expression.” Those are the words of today’s guest. We have all heard the expression, you are what you eat. It’s not just a cliche’. It’s a genetic fact. In today’s episode, Shawn Stevenson, author and host of the #1 health podcast, The Model Health Show, shares his journey to discovering the truth about healthy living.

“The more rational your thinking, the more rational your decisions. The more rational your decisions, the probability of the outcomes being great are significantly higher than when you are in an emotional state.”  In today’s episode, the guys are discussing the problem of making decisions based on feelings rather than on what is real, factual, and rational. Commit to making decisions rationally. Your life and legacy depend on it.

We make a lot of decisions every day, and with the right energy, we can make every decision, the right decision. The truth is, the energy you give to situations and circumstances in your life is a critical factor to your success. In this episode, the guys speak on how having the right energy, positive attitude, and follow-through can make all the difference in the outcome of decisions.

Yooo….You gotta listen to this one, let it simmer for a bit, and then listen to it again. Jemal pulls you into his journey to becoming the successful entrepreneur he is today by taking you back to some of the most vulnerable moments of his life as a police officer in Chicago. This one is real, raw, and gives you a much-needed dose of reality to embrace the urgency of this moment and do what it takes to execute on the commitments you've made to better yourself, your family, and your community.

"Focus on the process." Those are the words of Jayda, ET's daughter, on today's podcast.  2020 has been a year like no other. COVID-19 has changed everything, and it's easy to feel like your goals and dreams have been left behind. Listen up because today, the guys differentiate between two major types of people and how they plan and execute their goals. Be prepared to take lots of notes because you don't want to miss any of the life-changing actionable tips and strategies they are dropping today.
