Daily Dose: Cash is King

 Here’s the truth: Cash flow solves a host of issues. Struggling with stress in your business? Cash flow can ease it. Facing tough decisions? Cash flow creates options. The more consistent your cash flow, the more freedom and flexibility you have to tackle challenges head-on. The key? Focus your time and energy on money-making, goal-relevant activities. It’s easy to get sidetracked by busy work, but true progress comes from actions that directly contribute to your bottom line. Today, ask yourself: Is what I’m doing right now driving cash flow or just filling time? Adjust accordingly, and watch the problems start to shrink.

Just another article to change your boring life

It’s no secret that fear is driving much of society’s behavior in the uncertainty of today.  From my point of view I see sickness, stress, desperation, divorce, despondency, and a whole host of other negative environments on the rise.  I actually didn’t like doing the research for this article. Being someone that enjoys life, it makes me uncomfortable to unearth and deal with the “dark side” of life. My purpose though doesn’t allow for me to just stand by and see it all happening either. I believe that if we have the means or “talent” to make a difference (which I believe we all do in some capacity), then it is now our responsibility to do so.  

Since fear is the driving force for so many right now, how do we move ourselves from fear into action? That is the million dollar question.  I have spent the greater part of a decade now helping people do just that; essentially moving someone’s life strategy from playing on defense (fear) to playing on offense (purpose).  
The simple answer to combat all of the negativity in this life is to play on offense.  Get out of the paradigm of thinking about what “could” happen or what we “don’t want”. Changing your focus on what you DO want is the most fundamental piece to getting into action and out of fear.  Start thinking in terms of possibilities. Start focusing on “for who” or “for what” you do what you do (sounds a little wordy I know – just think about it though). Playing on offense will force you not to focus on the deficits in your life but rather the resources laden inside of you.  I’m not promoting just being “positive”. I’m promoting brain power – get strategic. Don’t be fluffy with your thoughts, get real about where you want to go and get on it. As for playing defense, be aware of the possible dangers; but don’t focus on them. No one wins any games by only playing great defense.  

So let’s make this practical:
Better Questions

​As you can see, having a defense is not a terrible thing.  It just doesn’t need to be the major focus if your desire is to step into action.  I would love to hear your thoughts. I read every one. Keep well and keep moving forward!

The Dark Side of Momentum: Why Disturbance Drives Success - Spencer Uncensored ep 85

Warning: This post contains explicit language. Good evening, Mavericks and Momentum Makers. You’re here because you’re not satisfied with average, and neither am I. This is Spencer Uncensored, Episode 85. If you're just joining us, buckle up. We’ve had 84 conversations before this about how to build momentum, boost mastery, and tap into the deeper levels of productivity, profitability, and purpose that most people only dream about. ​ Let’s get one thing straight: Businesses don’t grow—people do. The money, the success, the accolades—they all come on the backside of personal development. Why? Because over the last 20 years of working with business leaders, I’ve seen it over and over again: You don’t level up your business without leveling up yourself. If you’re new around here, welcome. And if you’ve been with me for a while, thanks for coming back. Let’s dive in. We recently wrapped up the Unshakeable Weekend Event—a three-day immersion where people changed their trajectories or cr...

Harnessing Resilience: Champion Mindset Collective with Anthony Dahya

 I recently had the privilege of joining Anthony Dahya on the Champion Mindset Collective Podcast to get deep into the journey that led to the creation of the Momentum & Mastery and the Unshakeable Framework. This conversation was a powerful reminder that resilience, clarity, and purpose can transform uncertainty into unstoppable progress. The Power of Personal Development in Professional Growth As I shared during the podcast, the foundation of my work in coaching, writing, and speaking has been built upon personal development. My journey has been shaped by a host of challenges—from battling physical issues like epilepsy to navigating divorce and family struggles. These experiences led me to a core belief: business growth is inherently tied to personal growth. Businesses don't grow; people do. Over two decades, I have honed the Unshakeable Framework to help leaders turn adversity into opportunity. This journey has been driven by a relentless pursuit of resilience, which I def...

Moving Beyond the Drift: Insights from the Evolve and Elevate Show

I recently joined Erica Bishop on her Evolve and Elevate podcast , where we explored the question that sits at the core of any meaningful journey: how do we move beyond the drift? Drifting isn’t laziness; it’s a natural tendency to fall back on routines and the familiar, but it’s also a trap. As we discussed, real progress—the kind that transforms careers, relationships, and lives—requires more than just wishful thinking. It demands movement. Our conversation centered on a framework I developed, a simple yet powerful structure to unlock momentum: Dream, Desire, Disturbance, and Decision . Each part is essential to creating true, unshakable progress. Here’s what that looks like: Dream Beyond the Drift On the show, we talked about how dreaming isn’t about daydreams or fantasies. It’s about envisioning a life that stretches the limits of our current reality. What would a fully aligned, purpose-driven life look like for you? When you allow yourself to dream big, you begin to expand the bo...
