Now reinvented as a tech CEO, Bryan is serving the national lawncare industry helping small businesses serve customers in the modern way.

- Recommit to your goal.
Review your list of yearly goals and pick ONE. If you didn’t set a list of goals for the year, there’s no better time than now to create one.
- Make your action steps effort driven, not outcome driven.
Once you’ve identified your goal, determine action steps that are effort driven, not outcome driven. While my goal is a weight-loss goal, my action steps are all going to be things I can control. “Lose weight” isn’t an action. “Stop eating dessert” is.
- Identify what you need to stop doing.
How are you getting in your own way and preventing yourself from achieving this goal? What actions are you taking that are moving you away from your goal, or keeping you stalled?
- Identify what you need to continue doing.
What’s working now? Keep doing these things!
- Identify what you need to start doing.
What are you not doing currently that would make an impact toward your goal?

Steve Kortyka and Ryan Devlin are leading saxophone improvisers who have leaned into social media content creation the past few years, spawing their new release “A Series of Circumstances.” The guys stopped by the updated JJRR studios in person while on tour to discuss how they ended up recording with jazz legends and how learning jazz improv can sometimes be, as Steve describes, a “violent process.” This episode goes FSN (full sax nerd) but is illuminating to hear how 3 generations of saxophonists (including JimJim) think about and approach training the mind and body for jazz improv.

So what were you listening to back in 2004? Was it "Yeah" by Usher featuring Lil John and Ludacris? I loved that track. Was anybody listening to podcasts back then? The podcast idea was just getting going with the WebTalk World Radio Show; the first nationally syndicated radio program in the world to start podcasting on Sept 15th, 2004. Rob Greenlee is the former lead host and recent Podcasting Hall Of Fame inductee. Listen to Rob in episode 14 tell why he started podcasting, what he's up to now with Spreaker.com, why he doesn't drink orange juice anymore.

So how's your elevator pitch working for you? What if you ran into a magic genie and she was ready to grant you one wish to help your business, improve your lifestyle, or tackle a new technology? What would you say? Yea I'm still working my pitch too.
But after talking with John Livesay in episode 11, I know who I can turn to for help. John, known as the pitch whisperer, is a master story teller who helps businesses go from invisible to investable. I loved hearing his thoughts on disruption, how to react to it, and how it was the crucible for his own reinvention as the pitch whisperer. If you're looking for funding i'd listen closely. #startup #successfulpitch #disruption #reinvention #jimjims

So did you ever crash and burn on your first Kickstarter project? Or totally misread how big your target market might be? I love the fearlessness that Reid demonstrates in Episode 10 as she dives into entrepreneurship and shares some of her failures. She's got a new custom women's apparel company that's addressing the stylish active segment that she now realizes is the right fit (pun intended!). She sums up her experience perfectly with this quote. "I realized at that point marketing is a conversation." Listen to the end of the episode to find out how to support her new project that's kicking off Sept. 26 on www.Ifundwomen.com.
