Episode #680 Have you ever felt the need for more spontaneity and adventure in your life? In the world of business, it is not uncommon for owners and entrepreneurs to become consumed by the principles of rigidity and discipline. With the constant demands of running a company and the need to adhere to strict strategies and timelines, spontaneity often takes a backseat. However, this dedication to order and control can sometimes hinder your ability to embrace spontaneity in your personal life. The fear of deviating from established plans or the perception of losing focus can make you resist the idea of unpredictability and the joy that comes with it. As a result, the pursuit of adventure and excitement becomes an unexplored territory, preventing you from experiencing the serendipitous moments that can bring inspiration, growth, and renewed energy. In this episode, Tim and Doug discuss the power of embracing spontaneity and how it can enhance relationships and bring excitement to your daily routine. __________ Hungry for more?

Episode #569 What makes a great leader in business AND at home? A great leader is a person that is always in the front drawing their team to where they are going to and inspiring others through their action and their communication. The first step to becoming a great leader is to take inventory of yourself. The best way to do this is to have smart people around you give you honest feedback. You need to understand where you are succeeding and where you are failing both as an individual and a leader. Once you have that feedback, you then get to take massive action and be the inspired leader that you know you can be. You get to take care of yourself and put yourself first. When you are sacrificing yourself for others, that will put a lot of pressure on your life. The secret to being a great leader is to be a great self-leader first. __________ Hungry for more?

Episode #635 One of the biggest positive shifts that can happen in a business is when its leaders commit to personal accountability. When leaders hold themselves to the highest standard, it naturally follows that they inspire everyone around them to that same height. By the same token, when your business isn't going well, that's often a reflection of what is going on for you. It is a reflection of how you live your life. It goes both ways. Look at the biggest complaints that you have in your business and in your relationship. Look at all Five Territories. You'll see that your complaints have a lot in common. Your staff, their attitudes, and the work environment are ultimately a direct reflection of you. In this episode, we are going to talk about standards and the idea of accountability - putting in the time, effort, and energy - and what you can do when your business is not working as it should. __________ Hungry for more?

Episode #634 When you give up all respect for yourself, your family and your wife will not respect you either. You'll become increasingly defensive and needy, and your wife will simply, and rightly, spend less time around you. How can you fix this? One effective first step is to focus on becoming trustworthy. Be a man of your word. Stop breaking promises, with yourself and with your wife. Start small and restore that trust you once had. Get clear and admit where you are in all areas of your life. Work on reclaiming yourself first. Take care of yourself more than focusing on how to please your wife. In this episode, we are going to talk about some of the reasons why she doesn't want to spend time with you anymore, and how to get back to a place where you and your wife can genuinely enjoy each other's company. __________ Hungry for more?

Episode #633 What is quality time? Are you meeting your wife's needs while maintaining your desires and caring for yourself? One of your partner's greatest needs is quality time- the key word here is quality. Too many men fail to apply something like The 80-20 Rule to quality time with their wives and family. The idea is to see your wife's needs by being very present. Get grounded in who you are as a man and stand in your power. Deflect the stress and the worries, tune out the outside influences, and be mindful of habitual behavior. Focus on being fully present. In this episode, we are going to talk about meeting your wife's needs, the definition of quality time, and how to provide quality time to your wife and family. __________ Hungry for more?

Episode #632 You don't become a successful business leader without you and your wife being considered as a "power couple". But is there really power in your relationship? Do you feel like a powerful couple? If you have problems in your marriage that you can't figure out, you'll feel embarrassed and ashamed that you are not what people think you are. You can't talk to anyone about it because everyone puts you up on a pedestal...everyone knows who you are. Everyone sees you as a power couple, with respect and admiration. But you know the truth. In a relationship, if you know what you can be and it's not what you are - that's what eats you up inside. Invest and work on yourself first. As you change, your wife will change with you. You can become a power couple from the inside out. It doesn't have to look perfect, but it will be real. In this episode, we are going to talk about the curse of the power couple, how to deal with it, and what it means to be a true power couple. __________ Hungry for more?
