Is Business Rocket Science - Part 1 Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.  And that analogy is that business is rocket science. I was speaking once to a group of entrepreneurs and I did not realize we had a rocket scientist in the audience and I said “come on folks, this is not rocket science, building a business is very simple and systematic” to which the person raise their hands and said I have a correction for you, I am a rocket scientist and let me tell you that business very much is...

The Real World-Part 2 Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.   Get up in the morning and I have a couple of routines. I do some stretching, I got some challenges with my back, I had an inversion table at home that I use but I’m listening to my goals, what’s important to me all morning. There’s certain music that I play where the streets have no name that was right, man in the box, I got some—I have music that keeps me going and then when we—when I get in the car in the morning or I’m...

And I have spoken all of my goals into my phone, into my audio recorder, I get up and I could tell you it’s 9 minutes long, I put on my wallet in a shower and I listen to every goal I have for the next 30 years, that’s what I focus on. So, I wanna know what the weather is and I know—I wanna know what’s going on in the world around me base on—because I got to be somewhat relevant, I got to wear really close when I leave the house...

That’s when we have the hashtag hang up the hammer, I said “we got to hang up the hammer”, I—this is exhausting, it’s killing me and so that was the process we went through, I mean I own that business for 8 more years but what I was I started to run the parts of the business I liked and I—and I leverage out the business parts that I didn’t like and so yeah, I mean—I kept on going because until I can build the six figure...

Career Change-Part 1 Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. I’m driving one of my dump trucks like 60 miles with a load of junk on it cause I’ve got to get to an appointment to deliver a proposal to try to get the next job, right? The drive shaft on the U joint on the drive shaft of my truck's brakes is okay. So, I kinda know what it is, I’ve done with it before and I’m like holy crap I’m on–I’m gonna miss the appointment.

Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of  investment per day for a lifetime of results. You get the point with leverage, right? Or you take something you love to do. Your punishment is I'm taking the podcast off the air until I get back on track with these activities. You know what I mean? Like you would have to do something that would really hurt in the beginning if it would've happened. That's the push and then you would start to set up positive goals so that's the pull. So if I teach my son to manage money, or as a family we've decided to go to Disneyworld...

Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of  investment per day for a lifetime of results. So now we've got leverage. Now it's game on. So money that would hurt and you disappoint somebody you love that you're trying to help. So now what you do is you would say, “I'm never gonna let that happen.” One, that was a good kick in the behind, thank you for that, but you would never allow that letter to ever be mailed or that check ever to go out. When you've done all the activities you've promised, I hand them both right back to you. Take them, you shred them....

Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of  investment per day for a lifetime of results. So let's imagine you're my coach. So here's what I would do is I would say, I would ask you for a number, a dollar amount of number that if you had to write a check for today, it would hurt. So let's just say that's a 5-figure number, 10 grand or above. You would write a check out to a charity that you would never wanna be associated with. So just think of the opposite political party, some group out in the world that you just cannot stand whatever they're about. You're...

Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of  investment per day for a lifetime of results.

I’ve always said that sequels are great in the movies. But they are TERRIBLE in business. We don’t like sequels unless it’s something really good. Ok, so we don’t want to repeat history here, so, we want to understand what did not meet our standard? What was not exactly the way we wanted? So, we can create a plan so that those things do not happen again. Alright, so you’ve looked back on the things that didn’t work so well. Now, you only build on the positive and you can only build a successful business, sales process, consistent and substantive victories on the positive. 

  • So, what actually did you do well this past year? Let’s take some inventory of that. 
  • What actually exceeded your standard? 
  • What was a new ritual or habit that you took on that really worked well? 
  • And what discipline did you employ that you now find is greater than the pain of regret? You know they say the pain of discipline is much more powerful than the pain of regret. 
  • So, what discipline did you take on this year that will make sure you don’t regret next year, during the year next year? 

So, let’s build on the positive, we took the power of looking backward, we found out what we were tolerating. What do we not want to repeat?  What was not great for last year? Now let’s flip the coin, what did work really well?

Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.
