Ep 608608. Is it Hustle? Or is it Flow? Which One Is The Truth?
ELori and I have noticed this big cultural shift from the hustle and grind mindset to letting things flow and take their natural course. Which one is better? Like most things, I think it's best to exist somewhere in the middle of the two extremes. We talk about learning how to hustle with boundaries, giving yourself at least one day a week to be present, and practicing intentional planning. There are moments and seasons when you're going to have to give it your all, but recognize that you and your team need time to recharge afterwards. Lori and I share how we've found the balance of hustle and flow and our advice for avoiding burnout as an entrepreneur. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Figuring out what moves the needle and what's not worth your energy Maintaining your morning routine during a busy season The massive, exhausting hustle that's behind every accomplishment Why you need to make your decision and then release it What we do to rest and recover after a launch RESOURCES: Text DINNER to 310-421-0416 to be considered for a spot at our cancer research fundraiser dinner event.

Ep 606606. Here's Why Thinking Small Is Selfish
You can make a world-changing and life-changing impact with a lot of money. But, you can't make a lot of money if you're not chasing down your big, audacious dreams. I know every single person listening to this show has one of those dreams, and not only are you doing yourself a disservice by keeping it a secret, but also, you're not letting the world benefit from your innovation. What if people like Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and Oprah were content with their 9-5 jobs and didn't take the risk to pursue something bigger? We would be living in a much different world, right? It might make you uncomfortable to hear that thinking small makes you selfish, but listen in to hear what I mean by that and what you can do about it. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: The side effects of great wealth Why you help the world twice when you make a lot of money Leaders who have made historical changes with their innovation Addressing the fear around taking a giant leap towards your dreams RESOURCES Text DAILY to 310-421-0416 to get daily Money Mantras or Business Perspective messages to boost your day.

Ep 605605. What Do You Really Want From Life? Here's Why You Need To Know.
EIf nothing was considered unrealistic or impossible, what would you want out of life? This question came up in a book that Lori's reading, The Rhythm of Life by Matthew Kelly, and we discuss exactly what our answers are to that question. We've been putting so much thought into what it means to build a life that we love and what needs to happen in order to achieve that. Really getting clear about your answer to this question will help support and guide you when making bold and scary dream-building decisions. We also talk about the importance of taking on challenges and knowing when to close the chapter of something that you've outgrown.

Ep 604604. How To Love Yourself And Save Your Relationship Through Integrity And Discipline With Keith Yackey, Founder Of Marriage Game
EKeith Yackey has achieved massive success in real estate, investments, and coaching, but he hasn't always been the focused and intentional version of himself that I know today. We discuss two major events that shook up his routine and made him realize that he needed to make major changes. We talk about how he took the leap from being a pastor and got into flipping houses, created a network in the construction industry, and eventually flipped 200 houses in his first two years in the game. While Keith fostered an extremely successful career, his role as a husband and father took a backseat, and his wife left him. Instead of giving up, he learned how to love himself and prove to his wife that he could be the man that she needed him to be, and their relationship is now stronger than ever. Keith shares his tips for men who are finding themselves in the position he was in five years ago and the importance of integrity, discipline, and self-respect when it comes to winning your partner back. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: How his mother's passing when he was 28 years old impacted his approach to life and business How he handled setbacks at the beginning of his real estate venture Unpacking where his marriage deteriorated Coming to terms with not living up to his wife's expectations The real steps that helped him fall back in love with himself His experience with doing 75 Hard during the most challenging season of his life How to find success in business and relationships at the same time RESOURCES Text DINNER to 310-421-0416 to get more information about the amazing charity dinner event that we're going to be at with other extraordinary people.

Ep 603603. Make More Money By Embracing Fear
EWhen you look at your banking app and see what your checking and savings account add up to, what's the number that makes you feel safe? We all have that amount in our heads and when we see it, we tend to kick our feet up, give ourselves some leniency, and slow down our hustle. My number one money hack to counteract this behavior, is that I will purposely move money out of these accounts and put it somewhere smart, so I can go to work getting back to that "safe" number. By making yourself drop below that number, you'll do the scarier, tougher things, and you'll make the moves that you need to in order to get back to that place of abundance. That might sound crazy, but listen in to hear why it works every single time. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: The biggest reason we stop creating wealth Why urgency is such a powerful motivator Grant Cardone's epic approach to this philosophy Learning how to embrace fear RESOURCES Text DAILY to 310-421-0416 to get daily Money Mantras or Business Perspective messages to boost your day.

Ep 602602. Why And How I Journal This Year
EEvery morning, I start my day with a blank page and four journal prompts. I reflect on what I'm grateful for, what I want to manifest, why I'm working, and one goal for my relationship. It's simple, effective, and this practice has totally transformed how I approach the day. It's just five to ten minutes of quietness and acknowledging the good things in my life. I'm sharing why this method has been such a game changer for me and how I've been able to stay consistent with it. Listen in if you're ready to get every single day started off on the right foot. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Why this type of journaling works for me How I came up with the four prompts The question that has made the biggest difference for me Examples of answers for each prompt The difference between wanting and manifesting RESOURCES Text DAILY to 310-421-0416 to get daily Money Mantras or Business Perspective messages to boost your day.

Ep 601601. If You Celebrate Other People's Wins, You Win Too!
When you celebrate other people's moments of abundance and accomplishments, it reinforces to them that the hard work to get there was worth it. That positive reinforcement is going to make them go do it again. Plus, when you start to celebrate other people's wins, you feel good. And when you feel good, you're reminded that those things are worth pursuing for yourself. Today, I want to share a story of celebrating other people's financial accomplishments and the ripple effect that those moments have on the economy. Because when everybody's winning in the economy, that system turns around and rewards you as well.

Ep 600600. The Power Of In-Person Masterminds & Why You Need To Join One
EI just hosted one of my weekend Elite Mastermind group sessions and Lori and I both feel so recharged from the amazing guest speakers and talented people who were in that room. Lori shares something that executive life coach Adrian Koehler said, which is, "What do you know for sure that you spend way too much time trying to prove is false?" It made me think about where my decision making is coming from and how to lead from a place of trust. I was really impacted by what Dan Fleischman, a genius marketer, had to say about people waiting for this 'bubble' to pop. With all of the resources and advances in technology that we've seen since 2010, there's no way we're going to have a repeat of the mid-2000s recession.

Ep 598598. Feel More Abundant With This Mindset Shift
The key to abundance is to look to the future and let go of the past. You need to dream, manifest, plan, journal and seek evidence that supports how you want to feel, where you want to go and what you want to achieve. Forget about where you've already been. Thinking about what you could've, should've or would've done in the past isn't going to help you align with your future self. In today's episode, I'm sharing how this outlook shift has changed mine and Lori's lives, plus one of my favorite exercises to help keep you on track for a positive and successful future.

Ep 595595. Why There Is No Shame In Being Motivated By Tangible Things
EI recently had the pleasure of sitting next to a kind and successful retired entrepreneur on a flight home, and he was nice enough to impart some wisdom with me that I want to share with you all today. There's a difference between being frugal in order to put yourself in a good situation and then continuing to be frugal when you don't have to be. At some point, you have to reward yourself. When you're motivated by tangible things, sometimes that's more powerful than being motivated by something that you can't really see, feel or touch. It's also important to resist the temptation of instant gratification and buy it when you can really afford it. Listen in to hear more of our conversation and how I have weaved this advice into my life. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Recognizing your success and rewarding yourself Why it's powerful to be motivated by tangible items The generous side effects of being successful How to determine when it's the right time to buy your dream item RESOURCES Text DAILY to 310-421-0416 to get daily Money Mantras or Business Perspective messages to boost your day.

Ep 593593. Be Aware Of Accidental Bias
We all have a subconscious bias that we carry from our backgrounds and life experiences. We might believe that something is totally unbiased and true, but the reality is that there's a lot of influence behind-the-scenes that we're not aware of, and it can influence big decisions you make that will affect your own life. To keep you aware of accidental bias, I'm sharing two examples of where I've seen accidental bias come into play recently and my (unbiased) advice for how to stay aware of that. I get into what you should be looking for in your financial advisors and debunk a myth about renting vs. buying that I saw on a realtor's viral TikTok video.

In today's episode, I share examples of how my wife Lori and I have seen this happen in our careers, and also what Gary Vee shared about this topic in a recent podcast episode.

Ep 587587. How To Problem Solve Your Business Challenges With Jim Carter And RT Custer
EToday, I'm joined by entrepreneurs and the powerhouse duo behind Carter & Custer, Jim Carter and RT Custer. Jim and RT share how they overcame some of their biggest business challenges and what they have planned for the next iteration of Fast Foundations Mastermind. RT explains how his watch company Vortic came out on top of a 6-year lawsuit against industry giant Hamilton. His passion and belief for upcycled watches kept him fighting when everyone around him, including his first attorney, advised him to give up and file for bankruptcy.

The holidays are my favorite time of year, hands down. The lights, the trees, the movies–it's all magical.

In today's episode, I'm talking about how we've switched the focus from presents under the tree to really tapping into each other's love languages and enjoying the holiday season with our family. I'm sharing some ideas for how you can spread Christmas cheer while staying on track with your financial goals. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: The pressures of gift giving How to give more meaningful gifts Our family traditions that have helped us reconnect and relax during the holidays Advice for how to have conversations with family about money during the holiday season RESOURCES Text ELITE to 310-421-0416 to apply for a seat in the Elite Mastermind or go to https://chrisharder.me/mastermind.
