This episode discusses the mentality that is the enemy to learning and growth: Superiority. If you're reading this, I'm betting you're successful (whatever that means to you). And with greater levels of success can come the inevitable mentality that "I'm above this" or "I can't learn anything from that." Be careful. I've been there and it's a slippery slope. Without curiosity, you cannot grow and get better. Enjoy and please sign up for OUTPERFORM Weekly for free at https://scottwelle.com.

This episode reveals the 2 questions you MUST ask if you want to achieve the next level of performance in ANYTHING, whether it’s personally, professionally, athletically or otherwise. Simply stated, if you know where you’re going (i.e., the next level of performance), where are you now? AND, if we’re being completely honest and keeping it “100”, why aren’t you already there? Asking and answering these questions puts you ahead of almost everyone in terms of insight and progress towards getting what you want. Don’t overlook them.

In this episode, I discuss something that plagues all of us from time to time: Inaction. Usually, a lack of action (for ourselves or others) comes from not having the “CRM.” In other words, we don’t know WHAT (clarity), we don’t know HOW (resources), or we don’t know WHY (meaning). If you can pinpoint which of these you’re lacking, you’ll be better positioned to take consistent action towards things that will genuinely improve your life…and the lives of others.

And they were driven to prove them WRONG.” —Scott Welle. In this episode, I discuss the psychology of success that is not popular and not mainstream: taking the doubters, haters, criticizers, and proving them wrong. It is a tool used by Outperformers and is a pathway to motivation and high achievement. Just don’t live your whole life there, okay? :-) Because even though you may remember more vividly the people that told you that you couldn’t do something and you wanted to prove them wrong, I’m betting you also had a few people that told you that you COULD do something.

In this episode, I discuss leadership and a foundational strategy to elevate the play of others. If you find that your message isn’t resonating with someone (team member, kids, speaking audience, etc.), chances are you’re communicating with them at a different “level” than where they are. A better way to think about it is to meet them there, then take them up. That’s what great leaders and highly influential people do.

This episode of the Outperform Podcast is about the stories we tell ourselves, specifically the “explanatory style” we use to explain the things that HAVE or HAVE NOT happened in our lives. Research has shown that Outperformers differ in three key areas of these stories: Permanence (temporary vs. stable), Pervasiveness (specific vs. global) and Personalization (internal vs. external). Once you recognize your own dominant patterns of thinking (or recognize these patterns in others) for both positive AND negative life events, you’re better equipped to flip the script and Outperform in the present…and future.

There are four things to help you ‘figure it out.’” —Scott Welle. In this episode, we’ll discuss a difficult question to answer: What do you want? This is a question I’ve asked myself many, MANY times, and although I don’t have all the answers, I’ll share four recommendations that might help you gain clarity on what you want. 1. Ask what YOU want (resist the societal pull). 2. Stop putting pressure on yourself and see it as an opportunity (HAVE TO or WANT / GET to). 3. Determine who you admire or don’t admire and WHY. 4. Ask if your current behaviors getting you closer to that vision? Enjoy and I hope it serves you! More free training on Outperforming The Norm can be found at https://scottwelle.com.

But to do that, you have to be able to overcome the three pains that prevent action.” —Scott Welle. You’ve probably heard the phrase, “Get comfortable being uncomfortable.” We all know we NEED to do it to Outperform, but we often don’t know what PREVENTS us from doing it. This episode details the three “pains” that keep us from taking action towards anything in our lives: outcome pain, loss pain and process pain.

If you want the next, advanced level, you have to go deeper into the “Motivational API.” Enjoy your newfound motivation! Show notes can be found at https://scottwelle.com/the-motivational-api.

Show notes for this episode can be found at https://scottwelle.com/breding, you can visit Robb’s website at https://rev-advisors.com/ and connect with him on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/robbbreding/. Enjoy! Robb Breding has spent most of his life and career seeking to inspire people and organizations to be the very best they can be! He spent the first eleven years of his career receiving a world class education as an executive leader at a prominent fortune 500 retail company. Subsequently, he ventured to start his own retail company selling wireless phones and accessories. As president and CEO, he grew the business from a single store to over fifty locations, employing over 250 people across five states in just 10 years. Hit hard by the “Great Recession” of 2008, Breding fought back and successfully transitioned the business from direct distribution to a franchise-like model empowering entrepreneurs to own and operate their own wireless retail stores. After selling the wireless business in 2014, Robb’s wife, Pam was diagnosed with breast cancer. The cancer battle that ensued lasted over two years and together he and Pam fought not only the cancer, but also phenomena and heart failure caused by chemotherapy.  This life altering experience was a wakeup call for Breding and helped to solidify what has become his “WHY” in life. That is “To empower people to understand and fulfill their God given purpose!” Since then, Breding has founded REV Advisory Group to carry out this mission.   Breding is also an active member of his community serving on the local advisory board for Hope International; he commits his time, treasure and talent to his local church and various non-profits; and is currently the chair of his Rotary Club’s Leadership Development program. Robb and Pam have been married for over 34 years and together they have two beautiful daughters and two grandsons. The couple currently resides in the Minneapolis, Minnesota metro area.

Brad started his career in corporate marketing where he achieved success as a marketing executive with advertising agencies and as a Director of Marketing of a Fortune 500 company. He led Inner Circle, (CEO/Owner peer groups), where he facilitated meetings and coached over 130 CEOs to grow their businesses on average by 20%. COVID changed his direction, and he became a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and Mind Health Coach. His company, MindSync, shows clients how to defrag their minds to allow the software they were born with to run better. They can then turn down their emotions in the moment rather than regret that time when they lost it. They can calm their minds to achieve better focus, health, reduced stress and anxiety and achieve greater performance. We lead a nine-step program to better sleep, more energy, and less stress. It can even lower your golf score. Mind Health Coach, Bibliophile, Golfer, Proud Husband and Grandfather, Veteran and Wine and Food Enthusiast. “Your beliefs come from your subconscious.

We’ve told people that anxiety is not good. Actually, it serves us really well as human beings and we’ve needed a degree of anxiety to be able to function and evolve. There is GOOD anxiety that exists.” —Brooke Buys. In this episode, Brooke and I discuss mental health, the challenges and the stigmas in the “traditional” model and her innovative and personalized approach that is getting clients better results, faster. Brooke has over 20 years in the field with experience in clinical outpatient therapy, residential treatment, and school counseling. She created BLND as an alternative to traditional, one-size-fits-all wellness models, with the vision of offering personalized, authentic support that works in real life and drives real change. Brooke studied English at Kalamazoo College and received her Master’s Degree in Social Work from The University of Michigan. Currently Brooke is completing a Ph.D. in Social Work and Psychology with her research focused on gender responsive approaches to addiction. She also serves as a part-time graduate instructor for the School of Social Work teaching course work in interpersonal practice, group theory, and trauma informed care. Many early experiences directly shaped her journey, from piloting reproductive health care services in Guatemala to guiding her social work career as a home-based interventionist, serving the community as a medical social worker, school-based counselor, and clinical therapist at a dual-diagnosis residential treatment program. Each experience offered reflective opportunities that eventually contributed to the BLND model, values, and mission to deliver accessible, yet personalized mental health care services.

Every sporting team looks at their players as assets and they know that they need to take care of their assets.” —Pete Moore. In this episode, Pete and I discuss the health crisis, the healthcare crisis and why HALO (Health, Active Lifestyle and Outdoors) is a far superior term to “wellness.” Pete Moore is the founder of Integrity Square, an early-stage growth equity investor and the leading boutique financial advisory firm serving the Health, Active Lifestyle & Outdoors (“HALO™”) sector. Pete saw a need for a deeper and more useful level of education in the HALO sector. In response, he leveraged his network to start the HALO Talks podcast. Now with over 200 completed interviews and over 25,000 downloads, HALO Talks has become a “must listen” for anyone working in or investing in the HALO Sector.

Every sporting team looks at their players as assets and they know that they need to take care of their assets.” —Pete Moore. In this episode, Pete and I discuss the health crisis, the healthcare crisis and why HALO (Health, Active Lifestyle and Outdoors) is a far superior term to “wellness.” Pete Moore is the founder of Integrity Square, an early-stage growth equity investor and the leading boutique financial advisory firm serving the Health, Active Lifestyle & Outdoors (“HALO™”) sector. Pete saw a need for a deeper and more useful level of education in the HALO sector. In response, he leveraged his network to start the HALO Talks podcast. Now with over 200 completed interviews and over 25,000 downloads, HALO Talks has become a “must listen” for anyone working in or investing in the HALO Sector.

You can find out more about Daniel at https://renegait.com/. Show notes for this episode can be found at https://scottwelle.com/daniel-campbell and Daniel’s story is also below. Enjoy! Twelve days after my twentieth birthday I was at my fraternity’s house, spotted a good friend who used to wrestle as I did, and engaged him in an impromptu match. We had done it many times. I like to recall a time I ambushed him late at night leaving the library…I took him down, emptied his backpack on the grass, scattered everything, and ran for safety before he got up. He got me back by flipping a couch I was napping on a few days later. Brotherly love. This night, my neck broke. It wasn’t immediately clear to me upon hitting the wood floor that I had damaged my spinal cord, or that the trajectory of my life had jerked so far off the path. Not even remotely did I consider the possibility that that moment, that strange instant when the mental awareness of most of my body was replaced with a void, would completely change who I was, cause me to permanently re-engineer my identity. I collapsed. Hope was shone months later in the form of a physical therapist. She showed me around her clinic and discussed with me her treatment protocol. I would later learn she applies what is called “Activity-Based Therapy” principles. At the time, I only understood that she wanted to get me on my feet and walking. I had read that was a good idea, even for people having as little function as I did. Fast-forward 30 months, I’m stepping in a walker without anyone helping me. I’m stepping without help. I'm not overweight like so many others bound to a chair, my muscles are growing, my sensation improves every day, and my functional recovery is in stride. The day before I moved to Arizona, I set my personal record of walking 198 feet without help. Fast-forward another 6 months. I haven’t properly gait-trained since arriving in Phoenix. The clinic I go to doesn’t have a robotic machine to get me moving and can’t spare the manpower to assist me over the ground when my legs fatigue. My new best walking distance is about 20 feet. To end this regression, I started designing what would become the Spartan. I needed a cheap, simple tool that one person could strap on me and help me move my legs the correct way in a walker. The first prototype wasn’t pretty, but it worked. And one night, sitting in my room staring blankly at my engineering homework, it occurred to me…this problem I had, this problem I solved for myself, is so common. It was never my plan to be an entrepreneur, certainly not before I graduated, but a sense of duty overcame me at that time. Love for my fellow humans, compassion for those whose lives are as gnarled as mine, compelled me to create and establish ReneGait; to fundraise, and work full-time while simultaneously studying robotics engineering... full-time. I wouldn’t call myself the master of my fate (if that were the case I would be walking…actually, flying). But the victory I had, recovering what was lost, was enough. The momentum of that victory reshaped me for the better. “Always in life, if you fixate on one outcome and… “Always in life, if you fixate on one outcome and you get it, you’re still left with something of an empty feeling of ‘what’s next.’ For me, it’s more about moving in the right direction and embracing the grind of that process.” —Daniel Campbell.

Enjoy!  After 12 seasons playing Major League Baseball, Brett Myers retired to his Florida hometown to be with his family. What baseball fans didn't realize, is for years Myers had been playing guitar and writing songs in the off-season. From the time he was a young boy, Myers always had a love for country, classic and hard rock. However, with his rigorous baseball schedule, he never had a chance to pursue songwriting in a serious manner. One day while playing golf, he shared some ideas with his musician friend and producer Damien Starkey (Puddle of Mudd, Burn Season), who was blown away by his clever concepts. The two began collaborating and crafting songs in Starkey's studio. Before long, it was undeniable that they had a great chemistry and the songs to prove it. Since then, Brett has collaborated with several heavy hitters in the industry including Colt Ford, The LACS and Bottleneck. In September of 2017 Brett released his 3rd album “Home Brewed”, a perfect blend of Southern Rock and Country anthems about drinking and life in the south. Myers has also been taking his show on the road with his band “The Backwoods Rebels.” This lineup includes former Shinedown and Fuel guitarist Jasin Todd, Puddle of Mudd guitarist and bassist Adam Latiff and Damien Starkey, Dylan Hess on drums and Zac Gilbert on slide. With the great response that the shows and albums have received, it is apparent that Myers continues to grow his fan base in both the Country and Southern Rock markets. “The failure part of that year made it so much be… “The failure part of that year made it so much better and so much more memorable.
