    Where to begin: tips for new or aspiring entrepreneurs - EMP055

    Where to begin: tips for new or aspiring entrepreneurs - EMP055

    Today I want to share some tips for new or aspiring entrepreneurs. I also dive into my own story so that you can avoid spinning your wheels or going down rabbit holes of distraction. 

    My main 3 tips are: 
    1. Get very focused and define what you want to do. What's the end goal?

    2. Set huge goals in the area you choose. Know what numbers you need to hit. What does success look like? Take time to define that.

    3. Surround yourself with mentors and doers in your space. Mimic them; don't try to reinvent the wheel. They've already made and learned from mistakes that you will likely face if you go it alone.

    When you say you’re going to do something, do it! - EMP053

    When you say you’re going to do something, do it! - EMP053

    Today I want to talk about how when you say you’re going to do something, you need to do it. I’m not sure when I started to be like this, but now when I make a decision, it’s like flipping a light switch: there’s no in between. I’m all in and completely dedicated.

    You want to be known as someone who is consistent, persistent, and trustworthy. When you say you are going to do something, GO ALL IN. Commit, and give 110%.

    Stop saying the phrase “could have done” - EMP052

    Stop saying the phrase “could have done” - EMP052

    Today I want to talk about the phrase "could have done" and why I really hate hearing those three words in that order. 

    Instead of thinking "I could’ve done this or that," ask yourself "what can I do in the future to do this better? How can I prevent a certain problem from happening again? How can I improve my situation?"

    Asking yourself what you could have done gives you feelings of regret and probably brings up negative emotions. When you look at what you can do in the future, you invoke feelings of hope and positivity.

    You can't change the past. But you can act in the present to change your life today and shape your future.

    Today we are going to talk about how you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with. We’ve all heard this time and time again, but it really does start to sink in with time and age.

    You need to surround yourself with people you'd trade places with. If you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room. Check out today's show to learn how to connect with bigger players that will pull you up rather than bring you down.

    Setting and Dissecting Huge Goals - EMP044

    Setting and Dissecting Huge Goals - EMP044

    Today I want to go through the exercise of setting and dissecting huge goals. There are different ways you can go about this, but I want to walk you through my thought process and just get your creative juices flowing.

    This exercise will be especially important if you haven’t seriously sat down to think about what you want out of your life, your career, and your relationships.

    Jeff Bezos: Founder and CEO of Amazon - EMP035

    Jeff Bezos: Founder and CEO of Amazon - EMP035

    Today I want to share the story of Jeff Bezos, the Founder and CEO of Amazon. I’m extremely inspired by Jeff and his story. If you haven’t seen the old picture of him at a plain old desk in the early days of Amazon, you’ve got to Google search it. It’s truly inspirational to see how he started with humble beginnings and has taken the company so far. Amazon has taken over and as a Supply Chain Major, I am completely amazed at what they have accomplished from warehousing to logistics and distribution.

    He boasts a net worth of $141.5 billion dollars but I've heard he still does his dishes when he goes home. This is random but please watch this hilarious compilation video of Jeff laughing... he has one of the funniest laughs I've ever heard.

    CronoCine 1x16: Prisioneros (Denis Villeneuve, 2013)

    CronoCine 1x16: Prisioneros (Denis Villeneuve, 2013)

    ¡Hola Crononautas!

    Con este episodio cerramos el ciclo de cine de suspense, y lo hacemos con uno de los directores más en forma de esta década, Denis Villeneuve. Echamos la vista atrás hacia el año 2013, en el que Villeneuve irrumpía en Hollywood a lo grande, para hablar de Prisioneros. Este film que usa el suspense de manera magistral para analizar la naturaleza humana, tiene uno de sus puntos fuertes en el reparto coral que nos presenta con Hugh Jackman, Jake Gyllenhaal, Viola Davis, Terrence Howard, Maria Bello, Melissa Leo y Paul Dano.

    Aparte de desgranar la producción y el reparto, haremos un repaso a la carrera de Villeneuve. En nuestra sección Detrás de la Claqueta, hablaremos sobre la evolución del cine de suspense. También le dedicaremos unas palabras al cinematógrafo Roger Deakins, un mito detrás de las cámaras que colaboró en este proyecto y que recientemente obtuvo su esperado Oscar.

    Como ya sabéis, para el último tramo del programa nos abrochamos los cinturones spoilers y desmenuzamos escena a escena la película.

    En este episodio suena la BSO de CronoCine compuesta por el artista musical El Arias (podéis encontrar su música en Facebook y Soundcloud). Además, suenan los temas Before DawnSomber de Audionautix, y Gimin de Nethis (todas bajo licencias Cretive Commons 3.0).
