There is nothing worse than self sabotaging your own success.
Yet we almost all do it.
Here is why:

If other people aren't thinking you are a little bit crazy, that's not a good sign.
Normal is very, very, broken. Today more than ever.
In my opinion, the energy you carry into your life decides your life.
Your viewpoints and perspectives decide your life experience, MORE THAN, what is actually happening in your life.
And when controlled, often allows you to make what you want to happen, to happen!

Avoiding confrontation is a normal human tendency.
This is why hyper-agreeable people, and people who are overly nice, do not move organizations forward very well.
In any great organization, someone has to toe the line and set the standard.
Because by default people's entropy, slow down, and decline.

Everything around you, your environment, your routine, your inputs, and your relationships, are in perfect harmony with who and how you operate today.. (your current character).
If you want to grow/change into a new character you need to break and rewrite this default mode.
So you can re-create a default mode that is more favorable to you growing into who you want to grow into.

Inputs are derived from outputs.
If our minds are not favorable in thought, beliefs, perceptions, and actions...
We must interject to fill them with more favorable things.
What's going on in our head while we move through time decides how we experience life.
Can be favorable, can not.
You have the power to interject.

We will never outperform the person we are in our own heads.
If we do not allow a greater version of ourselves mentally, the thoughts, actions, plans, and ideas, that will make it happen can never enter.
We must take control of this process and create.

Life boils down to your ability to make good decisions and plan ahead.
Most people get repeatedly stuck in the day-to-day to the point that they are not able to ever lift their heads up and make sure they are moving in the right direction.
Moving really fast, but in circles... going nowhere fast...
In this episode you will learn how to fix this.

Trained helplessness affects most people in the world.
Getting everything fixed by others, never taking ownership, people bending at every problem, and not moving forward because it makes us "uncomfortable"...
Trains into us more of this behavior that holds us back.
This episode will help you break free from Trained Helplessness.

The impression of increase is a tenant that says to leave everyone you come in contact with in a better place than when you found them.
Humans are attracted to those who can give them more.
When you live your life this way, life becomes bigger and more full, by default.

In this episode, I open up my thoughts around both paid and organic as content strategies.
The pros the cons and some more open thinking that hopefully will help you form your own opinions on what is right for you.

We don't operate from our highest dreams and goals.
We operate from our lowest standards.
Make you goals your lowest standards, when you are achieving along the way they will be.

Contrary to popular belief I believe that when you feel stuck, I don't believe more action is the answer.
Most people say just take massive action...
Well, what if the action is creating the problem?
When things are stuck, feel slow, aren't working... etc.
I think you need to reflect, ask directional questions, foundational questions, and think strategically.
Then when you get the answers to these questions.
Go back to massive action in alignment with the answers.
Most importantly...
Whether you like the answers to the questions you just asked or NOT.

Rich people don't get rich, by putting a little bit, of a little bit, in a bunch of different things.
Period end of story.
Rich people get rich by concentrating on the areas they have the strongest understanding and increasing their earning potential/exit potential.
I believe that you should invest your money in alignment with the amount of expertise/understanding that you have.
Use your money to double down in what you understand and have a unique advantage in, and grow your earning potential.
That's hands down the best investment you can make.

Most people are afraid to niche down to begin... I do agree, to scale you want to be broad.
But to break through you have to be specific in how you show up, and who you try and talk to.
Take my profile for example.
Right now I am making it clear that I understand online fitness coaching, by explaining businesses concepts and relating them to online fitness.
Why? I want to staff my company aka attract people with this kind of business, and then buy other $1-3 Million dollar fitness coaching business and build them up to my size.
If I explained these same concepts without specificity around fitness, I would talk to a broader market, not get as much traction, and also not attract who I want to be listening to me.
Make sense? Niche to break through - then easier to broaden and scale with name / brand equity already existent and following already started.

Most people let their minds collapse to the image of whats around them, and more of the same is all that is possible in different varieties.
Instead, you can be conscious of continuously revisiting what possible solutions could and, or, would look like, and being relentless in their pursuit.
In doing this you will make a lot of progress.

Getting people to respond is getting easier and easier for those who understand this, and harder for everyone else.
Sales messaging is something that must be massaged and is not something you figure out through a lack luster, or non-structured effort.
In this episode, I share how to improve your response rates with better sales messaging.

Defining the activities that are going to produce the results you are looking for in the future, and carrying them out over time regardless of the day-to-day fluctuations in output, or emotional state is how great harvests are created.

There is no way to learn how to smell blood, it can only be gained from experience.
Only through exposing yourself, having skin in the game, and feeling the downside/pain involved with growing something big, you will never have the backboard of your human nature that allows you to see things in high fidelity.
With real meaningful feedback.
LukeKish.com | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube
Your emotions sit beneath all of your thoughts and actions, and if they are constantly fluctuating it is harder to make sense of things.
I aim for a steady and achievable, positive, but not too high emotional state, and try and hold it consistently so my thoughts and actions have clearer and more importantly, identifiable patterns.
This allows me to grow and make changes.
PS - Forgive my voice this episode I have a slight headcold.

Most people don't view themselves as the single biggest output unit in their lives... but in my opinion, this couldn't be more true.
Everything in our lives is an extension of us. And if we focus on ourselves as our biggest output unit, our lives around us grow.
Listen to the 3 frameworks that will allow you to increase your output.

Most people are fighting for the 3% of the people in the market who are ready to buy. This is a massive mistake that prevents people from scale, profitability, and breaking through in any real way.

Sometimes the thing that makes sense, and the thing you least want to do are the same thing. What should you do here?

You will face resistance and things that feel emotionally challenging in your life, but if you stay conscious can move forward anyway to honor what will be the higher version of your self.
In my opinion the most practical way to begin training your mind to move forward anyway is with physically challenging things. With cold water, and long runs, it's really easy to identify what is going on.
Then this understanding can be applied to hidden things around your emotions or limiting beliefs.

The ideas we carry are what give us the energy we bring into the world.
Exciting, fresh, inspiring thoughts, will carry with them exciting, fresh, inspiring energy.
Negative, small, boring, fearful thoughts, will carry with them negative, small, boring, fearful energy.
In this episode, you will learn how to go about this consciously & take back control of the energy you bring to the world.

In this episode, I explain how your habits exist in perfect harmony with the current version of who you are, and what you need to do if you want to get different results.
I peel back the topic to a level that will allow you to really make meaningful changes in your life.
This understanding is something that was first explained to me by my late mentor Bob Proctor. Thanks Bob.

For most people "culture" is just a buzzword or a list of "values" that someone came up with, and wrote down, to maybe be read at the beginning of team meetings, but not actually acted upon.
Real culture is a deep internal alignment on how people are operating, ideally all towards the same north star.
In this episode, I talk about how to build a winning team culture.

This episode covers why it's important to make your reward system latch on to reality, and not jar it off artificially with things like drugs or alcohol which floods your set point up to an almost un attainable level.
PS -
It was my 30th birthday so I partied pretty hard two nights before this episode.
There was a massive difference in my ability to formulate thoughts and work/stay focused. (probably reflected in how I sound)

In this episode, I discuss how I have spent about $250,000 now on just information/courses on how to do things like run ads, market, build businesses, etc.
I explain why the blended ROI on information is 100% of the time a net positive if you act on the information, and why the people who are skeptical of information are thinking poorly.
If you are a skeptic of courses, gurus, etc. give it a listen and see if it changes your mind. If it does (it will) comment below.

We are all being operated by programs that are running through our minds. These thoughts. create feelings. that create actions, and drive results in our lives.
Listening to this episode will help you see the programs that have control of you for what they are, and allow you to rewrite them into ones that can produce for you better results.

Challenges are what allow us to grow. They should not be shied away from but embraced, and walked into intentionally.
Most of us look at challenges and hard times as bad, not good, and things to avoid. But if you want to live a big life, have an impact, make lots of money, whatever it is, you can't avoid challenges.
As you grow they will grow.
In this episode, I explain how to keep growing through them.

The idea that great things are built because of glorious spurts of action and events is a false narrative that ruins perfectly good progress for people.
In hindsight when someone's success story is explained, a majority of it is left out, because a majority of it was boring, mundane, and seemingly insignificant things, over long periods of time.
Unfortunately, we just see and hear the movie version which is a distillation of the most dramatic, and glorious moments, along the way. Creating a false premise of how it should be, that screws a lot of people up.
Listen to this episode to save yourself!
PS audio is tinny because I forgot to turn the mic on here! Apologies!

Our expectations cause most of ous more issues than our actual problems themselves.
Failure and moving forward should be normalized and this episode sheds light on why this is the case, and how to fix it.
Listen to reframe your mind from the social media born perspective of success that is so broken and far from true.

The difference between a "pushing energy" that has to be applied externally, vs a "pulling energy" that comes from within... Is what I believe is one of the biggest things that separate good and great.
In this episode, you can figure out how to figure out which one you are running on, and how to hopefully find the real fire.

Performance Culture and Sales are inseparable. If a sales force is not aligned with the natural forces of wanting to perform, you will never have a sales team that excels.

Judgment must exist in important roles. Starting with the CEO / Owners and working down through the team.
Different roles require more judgment than others and can be harder to attain due to the breadth of the topic.
Ex. narrow windows of a job role, still require judgment but can be more easily attained because it is within a specific window.
Whereas people who oversee larger portions of a company need to be able to have good judgment across a larger scope of things at the same time.
