Aaron Morrison of Wyldfyre Dynamics and Facebook looking to ZOOM and tell LinkedIn you are job hunting.
One-on-one webinar: http://e-pr.me/webinar
Group booking site for webinars: http://epresence.me/groups
We hosted Aaron Morrison with WyldFyre Dynamics for this episode.
News in this podcast:
- Facebook is gunning for Zoom
- Tell LinkedIn you are looking!
More on our guest Aaron Morrison:
Over 70% of Americans are unhappy in their careers and only 27% are working in the fields for which they earned a degree. Less than 10% of people who buy a book or a course complete it, and of those that do, only a handful apply the information to create lasting change. There’s a problem here. The greatest regret people have at the end of their lives is not following their dreams. It’s not the mistakes we make, it’s the risks we didn’t take, the music we didn’t create, the living we didn’t do. I help Entrepreneurs stuck in the 6-Figures break the chains of fear and doubt, and gain the clarity they need to answer the burning question I once asked myself: Scale or Bail? You’re successful, but feeling trapped and miserable; where do you go from here?

Adam Shapiro, reformed lawyer-now-sales-dude with Sales Reform School and Facebook takes on Zoom!
(Video version of this episode: https://youtu.be/_byphhMt_8g)
On this show, we hosted Adam Shapiro with SalesReformSchool and he was a great guest--even in his second appearance. He always shares GREAT info!
News in this podcast:
- Facebook is launching their own video conferencing program. Does this put Zoom at risk?
More on our guest Adam Shapiro:
Since 2004, Adam Shapiro, through his SalesReformSchool™, has been helping individuals, teams and enterprises improve their sales performance. Using a sales process, messaging and disciplines framework, Shapiro customizes his deliverables to what and how his clients sell resulting in true behavior change. Why SalesReformSchool™? Several years ago, a friend suggested the name. It seemed kind of edgy and people smile when they hear it, so it’s keeper. The metaphor works for a number of reasons: To improve, it helps to embrace learning, change, and practice; and the best practitioners are students of their craft - they don’t believe they know it all and are willing to try new processes and disciplines. So, SalesReformSchool™ makes sense. Though Adam began professionally in law, he leveraged his experience with corporate legal departments into a successful software and services sales career. Adam has held roles in sales, marketing and business development at companies like American Lawyer Media, Harbinger Corporation, Air2Web and Inovis. Since 2004, Adam has consulted and implemented sales improvement programs for over 70 clients - mostly of them either Business to Business technology or consulting firms and mostly in the Atlanta metro area. Adam received his Juris Doctor (Cum Laude) from the University of Georgia School of Law, where he served on the Law Review. He also has a degree in History and a minor in Philosophy from the University of Texas at Austin. You can learn more about Adam and how he helps his clients at http://salesreformschool.com and his LinkedIn Profile.

Sleep Apnea and Syringe Size
Today we are chatting about sleep apnea and syringe size. I had a Reddit discussion with a fellow last week that argued that there was no difference in syringe size and work required to inject so we did a little science to decide who was right.

11 Nail Your Nutrition and Fueling - A Key Pillar of Performance
Underneath the Purple Patch Pillar of Nutrition, there are two main components:
- Fueling - This encompasses the calories you consume during a workout and immediately following
- Nutrition - This includes your daily eating habits outside of training including breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks.
In this episode packed with meaningful and easy-to-implement guidelines, Matt goes into depth on both fueling and nutrition with a case study of a real-life Purple Patch athlete, Mike. Mike is like most age group athletes. He’s a busy executive, but dedicated to his training and achieving high-performance in both work and training. He joined Purple Patch to “get to the next level.” He trains most mornings and is highly motivated to reach his training goals. The biggest problem? Mike doesn’t fuel properly.
Matt starts the episode with a discussion on FUELING, the biggest contributor to your success. He answers:
- Why is fueling during and post-workout so important?
- What functions does proper fueling serve to my overall performance in work and in sport?
- What are the common pitfalls and mistakes around fueling?
- How do I know what to eat?
- What are parameters and ABCs around proper fueling?
- What are the causes and dangerous effects of improper fueling?
- How do I know if I’ve got the formula right?
In the second half of the episode, Matt moves on to the global platform of health: NUTRITION
One of your goals, he says, is to not fall for evangelism. “Get it mostly right,” he stresses, and don’t fall prey to athletic starvation or to gluttony. You can be successful without counting calories.
- What is the most important meal of the day?
- What are the main benefits and effects of good nutrition balance?
- How should I structure my eating throughout the day?
- What are the warning signs that my nutrition is off?
- What are the potential dangers of under or over-eating throughout the day?
- What types of foods are best for me?
This episode is the perfect foundation and lead-in to Matt’s next episode with the Purple Patch resident Endurance Sports Nutritionist, Kyla Channell.

- Qualities of successful people - humility, friendliness and a good sense of humor
- Word of the Week: Residence
This is an episode for those who are on a constant quest for learning and self-improvement. The pursuit of success, whether it’s in business or sport, is truly all about the journey and putting yourself in situations where you can learn from others; even if those others happen to be professional triathletes!
