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.

Moving forward is a way of life

Regardless of where you and your business has been, there's always a way to keep moving forward.

I was born in Naples, Italy to an Italian Mother and to an American Father, serving in the US Navy.  They were divorced 7 years later. I went on to be raised by two women, both with entrepreneurial DNA. My early life was filled with change, evidenced by the fact I only started and ended in the same school twice.  Basically we changed schools every year except those two.  After a short stint to live in Italy my junior year, we moved back to the US and I decided to get my GED rather than go for my senior year.  I needed to help make money for the family and school wasn't my thing at the time.  Shortly thereafter, I sidestepped my dream of being in the military and went to Bible College, got married by 22 and a Father at 23.... and clueless.​

There's only so much you can provide for your family as an Assistant Pastor of a rural country church.  I worked Security for the mall.  It was during this phase of my life that my mom introduced me to her new partner.  Darlene was a Real Estate Agent.  She looked at me and said,  "you know, you would make a great buyers agent".  Within 12 months of that conversation, she and I went on to double her business.  4 years later we decided to move ourselves and the business to SW Florida.  There, we built a team of 6 buyer agents, 2 admins, and were living the dream.

Then life threw me a curveball...

I got the call that no Husband wants to hear.  "I'm not coming home" Right as I was at, what I thought, would be the prime of my career, I was faced with losing not just my wife but also my daughter.  To my blessing, Darlene had not only introduced me to real estate, she also introduced me to the world of Personal Development. Standing at a threshold in my life, I stood on the bank of the Caloosahatchee River and vowed to myself it would not be like this anymore. I went on a personal development binge digging into the deepest part of my soul.  I craved to understand why so many of the people in my history along with my current life had such deep scars.  Hurt people tend to hurt people.  I had to objectively separate their phycological ailments from my own personal experiences.

When I moved back to South Carolina (that's where this country-ass accent comes from), I became a recruiter for RE/MAX.  I chose to be there so I could be within driving distance from my daughter, of course.  Naturally, I had agents asking how we had built such a large business so quickly... and this is when the coaching began.  Ever since that shift that happend for me in 2004, I went on to coach full time using the simple mantra of Mindset, Mechanics, and Movement.  We've worked now with Army Colonels, Business owners of all kinds, and even trauma victims keep moving forward... or as we like to call it, being unshakeable.  
 
There's nothing that lights me up more than seeing others do what they previously may have thought impossible.  Creating the competitive edge gives agents the opportunity to compress years of my training/experience into fractions of theirs.  It's always been my mission to empower and enrich every life I connect with.  And giving agents the fast track on designing, building, and living a life they chose makes it all worth it for me.

This is super important to me because life without a business can be tough and business without a life is even tougher.  There's no reason why a hungry and committed person has to stay stuck, frustrated, or even paralyzed.  It would also be irresponsible of me to keep the unshakeable secrets to myself.  This, quite literally, is my mission.

But I’m getting ahead of myself...

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...
