Forest Whitaker y'all!

Al rejoins the fray as the Shield does the hardest-edged soft reboot in TV history.

John and Chris should never have taken that money, man.

John and Chris are hitting the Armenian money train TONIGHT, damn it.

Hosted by novelists and entrepreneurs Daniel Breyer & Jeremy Streich, Good Scribes Only is a podcast for curious minds to explore, challenge, and think differently through books. Sometimes even traveling to a place doesn't permit you to see it for how it really is for those who live there. Fiction, on the other hand, can. And thus, season 3 is about widening our perspective. We hope you're coming along can help do the same. Be sure to check out the Episode Cheat Sheet for an overview.

This episode is a follow up to this week's  discussion about The Narrow Road to the Deep North by Richard Flanagan

John and Chris are different kind of podcasters as they dig into the OTHER big antihero show of the early aughts. 

Sara Blakely is a self-made billionaire. She’s the founder and creator of Spanx. I interviewed her in January 2017 - over 800 episodes ago! - but all of her advice (learned directly from DOING) is still impacting me today. I had to re-listen. And I hope you do too...

Some people are inspirations for life. Sara is one of those people.

Sara Blakely is weird. I wish I could think the way she does. I want to be weird like her.

“I look at any object and try to think of any use it has other than what people had planned for it.”

And then she acts on it. She sees a pair of pantyhose, cuts off the feet (why not?), and creates a multi-billion dollar company, Spanx.

She sees her 9-month pregnant belly and paints a basketball on it. And then inspires hundreds of other women to do the same. Creates a book out of it, The Belly Art Project, and donates the proceeds to charity.

“All my life I was taught how to deal with failure,” she told me. “My dad would ask us at the dinner table every night: how did you fail today?”

HOW DID YOU FAIL TODAY?

She got comfortable with failure at an age when every other kid wants to get an A+ at everything.

She got comfortable embarrassing herself. For two years she tried to be a standup comedian. “I wasn’t very good at it.”

Practice embarrassing yourself…Ready. Fire. Aim.

She got a huge order from Nieman Marcus even though she didn’t have the inventory or the production ready.

She said, “YES!”. Then she figured out how to get the order filled.

Oprah listed Spanx as one of her “favorite things” of 2000. Oprah wanted to film her office. Sara had no office.

She said, “YES!”. Then she got an office and filled it up with people.

Say YES! Then make things happen. Don’t argue yourself into failure.

Excuses are easy. Saying “yes” and then executing is hard.

Get your thinking time.

“It takes me five minutes to drive to work,” she told me. “But I take 45 minutes. I use that time to think.”

It’s important to think. To be creative every day.

This is how she comes up with non-stop ideas to expand her brand, expand her products, and work on other projects.

I suspect this is the secret to how she always sees things differently. Being creative is a practice. It’s not lightning from above.

It’s taking the long route when you could’ve taken the short route.

Purpose = Infectious salesmanship.

While I was talking to Sara she used the word “empower” several times.

Spanx clothes give women more confidence. Empowers women. The Belly Art Project empowers pregnant women.

It seems like there are three parts to a project that leads to mastering salesmanship.

• The higher purpose for it. This gets people excited.
• The actual product and its benefits.
• Execution

Combine all three and people will get infected with your passion for your ideas. Sara was unstoppable.

Don’t volley.

Don’t engage with the people who want to argue with you. That’s time wasted when you can be creative.

Don’t invite ego in the door.

Once you’ve worked on your project, have passion for it, and started it, be willing to take suggestions and listen to people.

Ego can kill a project and close the door on good opportunities.

Be aware of your mortality.

Sara was selling fax machines for five years before fully launching Spanx.

She could still be selling them if she never started.

If she listened to all the people who tried to dissuade her.

If she became afraid of the multi-billion dollar companies that could have easily squashed her. Except they didn’t. She was one person and they were billions. But they lost.

We are here only this precious small amount of time. Make every moment a work of art. Make every moment move you one step forward toward your dream and purpose.

Invent a new undergarment even if you have never made clothes in your life.

Get 100s of women to paint their pregnant bellies and then raise money for charity with the idea.

“EVERYTHING IS A CANVAS,” she told me.

Which makes everyone a potential artist. What a great way to look at life.

But I can’t!

Why not?

For anything you want to do, for anything that excites you, take the time to figure out the next step. Ready. Fire. Aim.

Just why not? Why not?

A lot of people ask me: "Should I start a startup?" 

There's a very simple answer: do you love David Goggins or Tony Robbins?  

I share insights into why this is one of the simplest ways to figure out if you're an entrepreneur – and why both approaches ultimately lead to the same path.

Here's why...

Panic Attack: a sudden feeling of acute and disabling anxiety, sometimes so severe that one might believes they are about to die. Melody experienced her first panic attack this year in a tent after a series of stressful circumstances. Unfortunately, her training was affected by all the stressors in her life and she has taken a few steps back in her training (well, atleast physcailly...She has grown in understanding and mental toughness, that's for sure!) Melody shares what she has learned through her experiences this year and how her run at the Crimson Canyon Ultras taught her an important lesson about eliminating stress!

Ways you can eliminate stress:
-Quit your job (no seriously, if it's not the right fit for you, find something else!)
-Turn off stats on your watch (HR, VO2 max, performance condition (garmin) )
-Run by feel - Don't forget what it's like to ENJOY running. If you find yourself starting to dread your runs, that is a sign of burn out!
-RECOVER! Take breaks and make sure you are getting enough sleep! Mike Mcknight suggests a 6mo off season and a 6mo on season.
-Realize that life is going to happen and have faith that when set backs happen, you will come back stronger

Jacob placed 5th in the 25k Crimson Canyon Ultra. Time: 2:54:46
Melody placed 5th in the Women 25k (19th overall). Time: 3:37:43

*Crimson Canyon Ultra Stats:
