Success is uncertain, but entertainment is guaranteed! ✨

Just caught up on 5 recent 2Bobs episodes (fantastic as always)…

Here are 3 topic ideas I’d love to hear (unless they exist already?)

1) Contractors vs FTE’s
2) Goal-setting & scalability
3) Building to sell a creative agency

Thoughts, @davidcbaker / @blairenns ?

[Blair @blairenns]

The most vulnerable knowledge workers today are those who fall in love with their tasks, taking comfort in repetition and routine.

AI is about to eliminate all this busy work. The new world order will favour those who bore easily, who like to solve a problem once then move on.

[Tim Cook @tim_cook]

People with the most to teach live like they have the most to learn — and Steve loved learning. He was the most curious person I’ve ever met, which made him the best teacher I’ve ever known. Happy birthday, my friend.

[Chris Do @theChrisDo]

What a client is willing to pay you is determined by the number of available substitutes. The more people that can say they do what you do, the less you will be able to charge. When you fail to specialize and broaden your services, you are inviting more competition.

[Chris Do @theChrisDo]

When you have a conversation with people, do you follow these 3 rules?

1. Be radically curious.
2. Use empathy + build connection.
3. Ask deep follow up questions.

[Andrew Engel @andrewengel]

Feeling grateful. After several close calls of losing my business, restructuring the company and almost losing my mind…

I’m starting to see the fruits of my unwavering dedication to seeing it all through.

This whole entrepreneurship thing ain’t easy but damn is it worth it ❤️

“The speed with which they can shuffle somebody into the Hitler of the month club.”

Joe Rogan and @mtaibbi discuss how left wing media created a Elon Musk “bad now” narrative based on nothing.

[Kevin O'Leary aka Mr. Wonderful @kevinolearytv]

We’ve made a big mistake in the last 10 years vilifying capitalism, I am one of the people who want to take that back.

[Andrew Engel @andrewengel]

One quick quote that keeps me in check whether I’m experiencing a high or low:

“This too shall pass.”

The happy, go lucky feelings subside after awhile as do the moments of complete and utter despair.

Finding that balance is key 👍

This past week down to a ‘T’ summed up in one graphic:

Could not be more excited than to listen to this and immediately become an elite advisor just like @davidcbaker himself! 😉

‘2 Bobs’ inside jokes aside – genuinely looking forward to this!

[Blair @blairenns]

Big day in Bobsland… In today’s pod I interview ⁦@davidcbaker⁩ about his brand new book! https://t.co/4TNfnhZfmC

[Chris Do @theChrisDo]

I’m 51.
Started YouTube at 42.
Got serious on IG at 46.

YT subs now at 2.1m
IG followers 880k
LinkedIn 420k

I did it. You can too. But you have to start. Give before you ask. Focus on getting better & not the numbers. Learn before you scale.

[Joe Rogan @joerogan]

@blairenns @2BobsPodcast does the principle of “affecting the buying process” apply to other industries, like construction and architecture? #askingforafriend

[Grant Cardone @GrantCardone]

I've failed over 1,000 times but guess what? Most people don't see that because I refuse to quit.

[Gad Saad @GadSaad]

Why @elonmusk is a Nazi:
1) he supports free speech;
2) he requires employees to work;
3) he trolls the parasitized blue-haired Taliban;
4) he has a playful sense of humor;
5) he believes in the free market.

We must cancel Musk for peace.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

And … we just hit another all-time high in Twitter usage lol

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

New Twitter policy is freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach.

Negative/hate tweets will be max deboosted & demonetized, so no ads or other revenue to Twitter.

You won’t find the tweet unless you specifically seek it out, which is no different from rest of Internet.
