In the high-pressure and high-stakes of running a business, it can be challenging to deal with the mistakes your team makes.

In my twenties, I am embarrassed to admit that I caused a lot of collateral damage to my team by blowing up, making knee-jerk decisions about redeployment, and not realizing that the mistakes were the result of the pressures of the business.

Now that I have grown businesses over the last three decades, I have come to learn one fundamental truth about growing a team and making the impact that you want as an entrepreneur...

Too much pressure will break your team, and you can make it worse if you're not careful.

In this podcast, I explain how.

This podcast is specifically for my 20-year-old self...

When I first started my entrepreneurial career as a leader growing a business, I learned a ton of lessons. I struggled with immaturity, short-sightedness, and a lack of leadership. The more I have walked this path, the more I have learned about what it means to be a true leader.

One of the areas where I have felt this the most, and one of the most important lessons I've learned in entrepreneurship, is to let your team hold you accountable.

In this podcast, I will explain why.

There is one simple thing that the team members you want to recruit, hire, and bring into your company fear...

And this might shock you.

It's underutilization.

A person with talent, skills, abilities, and a desire to contribute is someone we call an "A-Player". They are the kind of team member that you want on your team. They work hard, they deliver quickly, and they are motivated to help your business grow.

There is one thing, however, that entrepreneurs need to be especially careful of when it comes to these A-Player team members...

Make sure they are fully utilized, or else!

In this episode of the Momentum Podcast, I will show you exactly why you must fully utilize your team, and why the opposite is their greatest fear.

Entrepreneurs are physiologically sensitive momentum based beings and we are highly sensitive to constrain.

This is the reason that I created the Natural Thirst Challenge

Water is the ultimate performance enhancer because it doesn't matter what you eat, what supplements you take, or how well you take care of yourself, if you aren't hydrated you aren't optimized.

Even if you have tried to drink more water and have found it difficult, once you reawaken your Natural Thirst, you will drink more water than you ever thought possible.

In this episode of the Momentum Podcast, I share the history of the Natural Thirst Challenge and why water is the ultimate productivity hack for entrepreneurs.

The most important hire you can make is the one you don't have to.

As entrepreneurs, we strive for success. We push and breakthrough challenges. It is just part of who we are.

Create space for what comes next.

This is one of the mantras of successful entrepreneurs. Offloading the things that are taking your time away from strategically growing your business will accelerate your growth. The process for doing this, however, can be one of the most challenging that entrepreneurs experience.

It is uncomfortable to give up the things that feed your business passions. The issue is that these are often the areas where entrepreneurs become bottlenecks and hold themselves back from success.

This comes up consistently for the members of our programs, and it is an important conversation for entrepreneurs growing past seven figures.

Cadey and Alex were recently in a Mastermind event discussing performance metrics with an entrepreneur with a problem.

Their sales metrics were slipping, and they were reviewing the KPIs every week seeing the decline, but there was a challenge in correcting the KPIs and turning them in the right direction.

Alex and Cadey have been married for nearly two decades, run numerous multi-million dollar businesses, and have created a unique process for their marriage that generates momentum.

In this Making Love and Business Work episode, they discuss how performance metrics and KPIs are important to track, but not only for the sake of tracking them. They are important because they should inform your behavior and change how you are handling problems in a department.

This is one of the most challenging topics for me to cover.

Early in my career, I told a consultant that one of the things I wanted most in my business was that I wanted my team to like and and to be close to my team members. He told me I was looking for validation from my team, and it is a dangerous place to be as a entrepreneur.

If your focus is on how much your team likes you rather than on the impact your team is helping your create, you are seeking validation from the wrong place. Instead, the numbers and metrics from your business will validate the contribution you are making.

As entrepreneurs, there are some pieces of advice or lessons that should be shared and spread so that we can help each other avoid mistakes in the future.

One of the most common mistakes entrepreneurs find themselves making is judging the success of their business on the size of their office space. Here's the reality, holding onto office space for the sake of ego can crush your business.

I know, I've been there.

There are particular habits we develop as entrepreneurs that are responses to the world around us.

High levels of pressure and noise lead us to journal and release all of the thoughts bouncing around in your head. By contrast, during times where we have a lack of thoughts, we are lead to consume without purpose.

This is the exact framework for reducing purging the thoughts and frustrations that happen when you are overthinking. This will reduce overwhelm and get you back into momentum.

The number one issue in entrepreneurship today is that entrepreneurs do not know the true value of a strategic plan.

In fact, most business schools, startup courses, and business consultants go about this all wrong. A strategic plan for your business can change everything, but a true strategic plan should be exciting and capture your entreprenurial vision of the future.

The strategic planning myth is so pervasive that entrepreneurs avoid planning at all costs. Most notably the cost of their growth.

Leadership is the one thing that will make or break a business.

A company with a deficit of leadership is going to implode, but a company that creates and develops leaders is going to scale consistently and predictably.

Years ago, a coach and consultant friend of mine asked a group of executives, "What is the number one value of a leader in business?"

We all said Results, Integrity, Power, Teamwork, etc.

But what he said next has completed changed the way I view effective leaders, especially in my own company.

Today is day 16 after my diagnosis with Covid. It has been an interesting ride. I obsess over my health and do a ton of biohacking and optimization so I'm very sensitive when it comes to anything that's going on. Covid is unlike anything I've ever had. There were so many twists and turns, it was confusing.

One of the most interesting symptoms with Covid is that for the past five or six days I have been frustrated and irritated. On Saturday I sat down to plan for the first time in almost 2 weeks. It was incredibly frustrating and weird. I teach planning, my company is all about planning, it's something that I'm obsessed with and on Saturday I just couldn't hook in or get excited. It was the opposite, no matter what I wrote and looked at I felt irritated, frustrated, and like nothing mattered. This is not a normal feeling for me.

Over the last few days I have meditated, and leaned into this feeling and it has been a surprise. I feel like Covid has been a massive upgrade, I explain more in the podcast.

As your business grows, entrepreneurs like you and me must make increasingly difficult decisions with less and less information.

You have to be able to hold space for a larger population of people. You have to actually be able to deal with the stress and the pressure of decision-making.

We have a saying in our membership. "Lead your business from the passenger seat."

In order to get there, you must find a way to duplicate decision-making, get your team out in front of you, and truly step into your role as the transformational leader of your business.

The magic of passenger status is that it creates the spaciousness you need to actually do what you need to do in a business.

In this podcast, I'll show you how to get there.

In this podcast episode, join Alex as he dives deep into the world of overwhelm, a condition that plagues many evolutionary hunters. As driven individuals, evolutionary hunters are wired to be in constant momentum, contributing, creating, and making things happen. However, the relentless pressure and noise of daily life can lead to a state of overwhelming frustration, questioning one's own existence.

Akex shares personal experiences and insights gained from coaching numerous entrepreneurs through overwhelming moments. He dissects the root causes of overwhelm, attributing it to the combination of high-pressure noise and an unknown outcome. The episode explores how overwhelm manifests and the various forms it can take, from panic attacks to physical symptoms.

But fear not, as Alex provides a proven strategy to break free from overwhelm. The key lies in a two-step process: clarifying today and establishing a partially known outcome. Listeners will learn the importance of a 20-minute walk to clear the mind, followed by putting pen to paper to articulate the sources of overwhelm. This simple act brings clarity, shrinking the overwhelming thoughts and creating a tangible list to address.

Alex Charfen, a business growth coach who helps entrepreneurs grow and scale their businesses, gives practical, tangible, and actionable tips that you can implement into your business right now.

More often than not, entrepreneurs say that they are drowning in things that need to get done. At the end of the day, they look at what they still have left to do and wonder how in the world they are going to get it done.

As entrepreneurs, we typically have one timeframe in which we want everything done…

All at once and right away!

Alex Charfen, a business growth coach who helps entrepreneurs grow and scale their businesses, gives practical, tangible, and actionable tips that you can implement into your business right now.

For most of my career this is how I felt about everything. Nothing could ever happen fast enough, and I applied urgency to everything, even the things that were urgent. I was counterintuitive, and it took me forever to learn, that if I stopped driving everything with urgency, that's when we actually grew.

That's when I was able to grow. That's why my team was able to actually make things happen.

I recently had a couple of experiences that reinforce this.

I was recently talking to a friend of mine about a situation in his company where he felt like a team member was working against him.

As he was talking, I had to remind him that we often project how we’re feeling on other people and it creates a massive constraint.

Alex Charfen, a business growth coach who helps entrepreneurs grow and scale their businesses, gives practical, tangible, and actionable tips that you can implement into your business right now.

When we are not clear on what someone’s motivation is, it’s better to have a conversation with them than to make assumptions and even worse create projections.

Yesterday I was having lunch with a friend of mine, Seth Ellsworth and his wife Michelle.

I don’t remember exactly how the conversation got there but I was sharing with both of them how much trauma therapy has changed my life.

Alex Charfen, a business growth coach who helps entrepreneurs grow and scale their businesses, gives practical, tangible, and actionable tips that you can implement into your business right now.

I told them that in my high-level mastermind, where everyone’s business is at $3 million or more, trauma therapy and acknowledging trauma is a consistent conversation.

When someone in that group starts seeing a trauma therapist, it creates a predictable Excelerator in their business. It has almost always created a dynamic with the business goes from millions, to tens of millions.

Michelle asked me “what if someone in the mastermind doesn’t have trauma?”

I told her I’ve never seen an entrepreneur with a $3 million business that hadn’t also experienced severe trauma.

There’s two types of entrepreneurs, those who have acknowledged their trauma and those who are unaware or in denial.
