LifeBlood REI: We talked about how to make money in real estate while living the life you actually want.

We discussed Mark’s experience in the Marine Corp that then led him to college where he first got into rental property investing.  How the career he has today chose him more than he chose it.  How his path to owning and operating 92 rental units essentially became a prison and a job that started with a ringing phone at 6am and didn’t stop till at least 10pm and sometimes all night.

The two primary reasons sales people fail to reach their potential and how to address and overcome them.  Why focusing on the customer and the value you’re delivering is the starting point to a successful sales interview, how to seek understanding first, then offer solutions, and why it’s selfish to do anything other than that.

LifeBlood BE WELL: We talked about health for life, weight loss and sustainable eating.  

We discussed the realities of obesity in America, how we’ve all tried dieting numerous times over the course of our lives, how very few of us successfully keep the weight off and the majority end up gaining back more.  

We talked about how dieting creates a tunnel vision effect where we focus on short periods of time and put our heads down, but when it’s over, we’re not prepared to do what needs to happen next, which results in us gaining the weight back.

We talked about how the post-diet stage is where people fall short of the weight loss goal they’re looking for because they lack the necessary tools to be successful.  

We discussed how everyone is capable of losing weight and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, they just need the right tools and support.  How our bodies don’t like calorie deficits, which are the key to weight loss, but the enemy of a sustainable eating program, and what we can do to be successful long-term with Paul Salter, Registered Dietician, Coach, Author, Sustainable Weight-Loss Expert, Strength Coach and host of the Screw the Scale podcast.

How to evaluate good opportunities and recognize bad ones when thinking about acquiring a business, and how starting small and learning from your mistakes can be more valuable than an MBA with Michael Frew, entrepreneur, engineer, owner and operator of Tyler Crown, an organization that starts, acquires, operates and sells software products and services.

How we all get nudges and have instincts we should be following, but it’s been conditioned into us to not do so, how business problems are often related to health problems which are in turn related to money problems.  The danger of getting married to ideas and then no longer looking for additional information which could contradict your position, now the most successful people among us are constantly seeking information to disprove their current thinking, how to continue that pursuit of truth while ignoring shiny objects that can distract, and why the best things in life need not be the hardest to get with Sheevaun Moran, Founder of Energetic Solutions, and a Spiritual Warrior for business success and growth.
