E13: Nothing Fails Like Success

Send us a text

Is your mindset still stuck in the successes of yesterday? This is something difficult for our heads to wrap around. But what might have worked for you five years ago isn’t going to work today anymore – and your successes today will no longer work tomorrow.

If you want to truly succeed, you’ve really got to keep up with the times because nothing fails like success. Nothing fails like success. It’s all different now. And what we all need, more than ever, is innovation, and the willingness and ability to recognize when something isn’t working anymore.

So you decide: are you going to stay inside the sinking ship – or are you willing to jump off and swim your way to success?

Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation:

• How the punctuated equilibrium has changed everything
• How the successes from five years ago are not going to work today
• How the successes of today will not work next year
• Let things be scary – or accept it
• The need for innovation and genius ideas
• The willingness to go with the times – you’ve got to be online
• Determining the kind of person you want to be
• The power of owning your failures

Episode Highlights:

[04:39] The Punctuated Equilibrium

The pandemic has changed everything we thought we knew or existed. The concept of punctuated equilibrium is this idea of change that happens in short periods of time. Where before, we used to do almost everything in-person, with a little online stuff here and there. But now, that doesn’t work anymore.

Everything has changed. It didn't just change the way we shop or shorten our attention span, or how you could run your business. It changed who we are – completely. This is hard for a lot of people to accept because nothing fails like success. The success they had before the pandemic is not going to work anymore.

Acceptance is key, and in order for you to accept that things have changed, start to think about how you've changed. Then figure out new ways to be successful.

[20:08] The Need for Innovation and Genius Ideas

Nothing fails like success. It’s hard to admit that something that once worked, can't work anymore. Sometimes it means that the rebuild is going to take a long time, and that people are not going to like
