THE SHERPA GETS NO GLORY

THE SHERPA GETS NO GLORY

Something I’ve been wrestling with lately is how best to sell what we do here at Measurable Genius. I know that we can work with any client in any business to make it better. But communicating that to other people is a tricky task. People want to see exactly how we’re going to live up […]

THE GOLDEN SCAFFOLDING AWARD

THE GOLDEN SCAFFOLDING AWARD

There’s a little kernel of truth hidden in every conversation. I relish my morning mastermind sessions because it gives me the chance to look beyond the surface of what’s being said and get into the real issues. For example, Geordie said he didn’t like the word “sharing”. And with a little coaching from me, we […]

WHERE THE FUCK IS THE KETCHUP

WHERE THE FUCK IS THE KETCHUP

Accountability is a word that makes people cringe. Sure, it’s great to think up ideas and strategies and all, but when it comes time to actually implement them, there’s a lot of shifty eyes and sideways glances. That’s why accountability needs to be clearly defined: if you’re the one who needs to get something done, […]

World Building

World Building

I’m going to re-brand “content marketing” as “worldbuilding.” Each of the people who experience your content experience a completely different world in their minds’ eye.

On today’s episode, I chat sales, I chat […]

Your Feelings Mean Nothing

Your Feelings Mean Nothing

There’s a Bruce Lee quote floating around the internet right now that talks about this concept. Your feelings are a distraction from the mission – your mission – whatever you want to call it. You owe it to yourself to stay focused on what is important. Let neither praise not reprimand distract you from your […]

Needs and Belief

Needs and Belief

I want to help you be in command of your business. In order to do that, you need to be more disciplined in your commitment to long-term plans. You’re probably never going to win any form of life lottery, but you’re guaranteed to be successful if you focus on incrementally achieving your highest priorities each […]

Am I Overthinking This?

Am I Overthinking This?

One of my greatest gifts is my ability to solve problems. My ability to serve my customers, my clients, and my friends comes from my ability to understand things in a way many other people can’t. Of course, that has a flip side, too. Every trait exists in synchronicity with its opposite. My analytical ability […]

Certainty

Certainty

When you’re not absolutely certain, you’re … not. Being in command of your business depends on your certainty. You’ll never have 100% of the data, so you need to start getting comfortable working with probabilities.
