Well, your social media feed might be a dumpster fire right now. But you still gotta check-in, connect with your leads, and wade through all the drama. So how do you keep your sanity in place while doing it?   This week, Landon and Nathan spar on a couple of issues, shake hands, and stay friends.

Modern society has a lot of ass-backwardness to it.   People's goals and values seem all out of whack. They chase and never find what they're looking for. It starts to feel like a giant hamster's wheel. Our priorities prevent us from getting what we're after. It can start to feel like on giant cluster-funk.   Then, something like what we're going through now happens, and it feels like the whole society is off to the madhouse. So how can you keep yourself on track while the world is falling apart around you?   We answer that, and explore: The biggest difference between persuasion and influence What people mean when they say "it's all mindset" The most important relationship in your life to invest in Why Landon never even wanted to start the Sales Gorilla, and what changed his mind The foundational steps most people skip over, and how it stops them from reaching their potential Skills we've lost that make it harder to connect with prospects Why convenience is making it harder to get quality clients What happens when people get what they want, and they still aren't happy Proof that most people are chasing things they don't actually want They only two things you have control over and why those are the only things you should be giving your energy to And a lot more All in this week's podcast.   Listen now.

What worked for marketing, just six months ago, isn't working today.   People are in a different mindset. The messages they'll connect with have changed.

I'm just gonna say it; most people are being set up for failure.   We teach them to read instruction rather than how to write the instructions.
