      <title>DailyQ #68: What remote work habits will keep me productive?  -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>During a time where everyone is scattered into the wind, working from home, how do we hold it all together?</em><br />
Troy Hoffman draws similarities between managing remote workers and growing a garden. He describes how, like watering plants, you’ve also got to manage the bugs and snakes to produce beautiful flowers.</p>
<p>At Simpluris, systems and training software were implemented early on so that anybody anywhere in the world can open up their computer to start learning what to do, when, and how to do it at a 3rd-grade level, using the training course.</p>
<p><strong>If you’ve just started transitioning, here’s what to do:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Make sure there’s a documented system they can refer to, like a checklist or manual.</li>
<li>Make sure everyone can share files and they have a clear system of daily tasks, and ways to hold everyone accountable.</li>
<li>Do whatever you can to create a seamless transition from the office to their home, even if it means investing in laptops or monitors for them.</li>
<li>Focus on those who are willing to work, serve, and do whatever it takes to help their company move forward.</li>
<li>You’ve got to set up your environment and hold yourself accountable to your morning routine before work.</li>
<li>Let those who choose to drown go, because there are others that need our help who are willing to do the work and grateful for the job.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>We are leaders, we are not saviors.</strong></p>
<p><em>These are uncertain times, so keep those around you that motivate you, and hold you accountable.</em></p>
<p><strong>Cast vision into them and move forward.</strong></p>

      <title>DailyQ #67: How do you stay the course during the covid-19 crisis?  -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Are you choosing to die or are you choosing to thrive?</em> In this episode of The Daily Question, Troy Hoffman paints the picture of the current state in the world of business and entrepreneurship during the COVID-19 pandemic. Drawing from his experiences in the past, and from what people are doing around him, he points out the key differences between those who are thriving and those left behind during these tough times.</p>
<p><strong>Where you stand depends on how you answer the questions below.</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Where are you at in your mindset?</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>Are you focusing on the drama and the morbidity of the situation?</li>
<li>OR Are you deciding to rise and be tenacious in your approach to find a path for your family?</li>
</ul>
<ol start="2">
<li>Who are you in conversation with or seeking counsel from?</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>Are you in conversation with someone who sees only darkness and the world falling apart around him?</li>
<li>OR Are you hanging around people who are seeking out the new opportunities that have come from this, and are encouraging each other, and strategizing together?</li>
</ul>
<ol start="3">
<li>Are you willing to have hope in things not seen and rise daily, not sleeping in, working diligently to adapt?</li>
</ol>
<p>The world will keep spinning on its axis. The sun will still rise and set.</p>
<p><strong>Those that are working diligently and prepared to seize the moment will win and survive.</strong></p>
<p>Those that sit around and smoke cigars, and talk about how crappy times are, won’t.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #66: How do I create a network of friends interested in entrepreneurship?  -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Where do I find friends who are into motivation entrepreneurship and how do I create a network?</em> In this week’s series special, Troy Hoffman gives his advice on how to build a core peer group. They say that you are the average of the people you surround yourself with. This here, folks, is a game-changer.</p>
<p><strong>There are four stages of learning:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Unconsciously incompetent</li>
<li>Consciously incompetent</li>
<li>Unconsciously competent</li>
<li>Consciously competent</li>
</ul>
<p>When you're unconsciously incompetent, you just don't know what you just don't know. When you are around a motivation group of people who are focused on constantly growing, they will expose to you the fact of just how much you do not know. And if you want to elevate your life, you have to get around these type of people. They will fire you up. The energy is contagious.</p>
<p>I suggest you get into a group or mastermind of like-minded people with the same sixed business that you have. I do this and it is amazing how much I learn from other people sharing their experiences, their failure, their successes. You're gonna learn mindsets and skillsets that that'll for forever change your life. While you’re there, sit back and listen. There is a time to teach and a time to learn. The more you talk, the less you learn.</p>
<p><strong>We need to be exposed to things we don’t know.</strong> Literally start googling events and meetups in your area. If you’re out of the country, you may have to stick to an online connection, but in today’s world, there is always a way to connect. It’s a game changer. Make it happen.</p>
<p>Have you joined groups that can help you grow?</p>

      <title>DailyQ #65: What should I do without a startup investment?  -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>I am a start-up and I don’t have the initial investment needed to start. What should I do?</em> In this week’s episode of “The Daily Question,” Troy Hoffman gives his advice on a dilemma that almost every entrepreneur faces. A lot of the time, big ideas need big money to execute. Here’s Troy’s advice for you.</p>
<p>I recently heard someone say something that I couldn’t agree with more. Every Fortune 500 company started with one person in one place doing one thing. Even Jeff Bezos started small and built his empire slowly. People start with nothing and build with nothing. When you believe in what you are doing, you will find a way.</p>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>I am a start-up and I don’t have the initial investment needed to start. What should I do?</em> In this week’s episode of “The Daily Question,” Troy Hoffman gives his advice on a dilemma that almost every entrepreneur faces. A lot of the time, big ideas need big money to execute. Here’s Troy’s advice for you.</p>
<p>I recently heard someone say something that I couldn’t agree with more. Every Fortune 500 company started with one person in one place doing one thing. Even Jeff Bezos started small and built his empire slowly. People start with nothing and build with nothing. When you believe in what you are doing, you will find a way.</p>
<p>Start by doing what you can with what you’ve got. It doesn’t need to be perfect. Perfection is the enemy of execution. The first marketing material I could afford were business cards. The front side simply said, “Troy Hoffman” with the logo, address, and phone number. The back just had the logo.</p>
<p>Do what you gotta do to make it happen! Live off the dollar menu if you have to. Don’t make excuses for your life. This is your opportunity to become someone. Real entrepreneurs are resourceful and hungry. They have a burning desire that keeps them up at night. Do whatever it takes to build your vision.</p>
<p>What do you need to do to build your vision?</p>

      <title>DailyQ #64: What can I do to balance business life and relationships?  -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What can I do to balance business life and relationships?</em> In this week’s series special, Troy Hoffman confesses to not have yet been able to find the right balance in his life when it comes to successfully running a business and having successful relationships. Stay tuned for this truth-telling episode.</p>
<p>I know how you feel. You take time off of work to be with that special someone. You are enjoying each other’s company, watching the sunset while having a nice glass of wine. But in the back of your mind you are thinking about the countless emails that are piling up., and the fires you will have to put out once back to reality.</p>
<p>Honestly, this is an area of my life that I have not yet mastered. Yet, I do believe it is possible. I have seen many friends successfully balance their work and home lives. My brother also does it so well with his family and with work. I think part of it comes down to knowing what you really want.</p>
<p>I am guilty of allowing my body to fall apart. I gave in to my cigarette cravings. I had fast food for dinner way too many times. It came to a point where I found myself unable to sustain enough energy to keep up with my business and with my relationships. But there are a few things I would change and will do better the next time around:</p>
<ul>
<li>prioritize my health and fitness</li>
<li>meditate</li>
<li>journal (writing clarifies thought)</li>
<li>express gratitude</li>
</ul>
<p>The key to happiness is the relationships you build. I understand the importance of this and despite past failure, will continue my journey of ultimate success in every area of life.</p>
<p><em>Where have you been dropping the ball when it comes to balancing work and home life? Why?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #63: How do I stay energized throughout the day?  -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do I stay energized throughout the day?</em> In this week’s series special, Troy Hoffman is transparent about his struggles with balancing health and fitness in his busy life. In order to achieve the life you want to live, you MUST have the energy it takes to do the things you need to do. Listen up.</p>
<p>Keeping on top of my health is something that I have struggled with for the last seven years. Being a chiropractor and neurologist’s son, this is pretty ironic. I would go to my father and ask, “Dad, I feel tired and sluggish all the time. How do I fix that?” His answer what pretty simple. <strong>You have to become the master of your own health.</strong></p>
<p>Part of our jobs as humans is to understand our own bodies. No two people are the same. Although there are countless doctors and nutritionists out there, they are not going to be able to tell you everything you need to know to gain optimal health. So, you’ve got to discover what works for you. Ask yourself:</p>
<ul>
<li>How much sleep do I need?</li>
<li>How much water do I need to drink?</li>
<li>What types of exercise should I focus on?</li>
<li>Does my body function better on a vegetarian/vegan diet?</li>
<li>Do I have any food allergies?</li>
</ul>
<p>No one program works the same for every person. <strong>Commit your life to learning about your health.</strong> Everything amazing that you want to manifest in your life comes from this amazing machine you were given called your body. The more energy you have, the better you feel, the better your relationships, the better your focus, the better leader you are.</p>
<p><em>What is one thing you could start today that you know you need to do to increase your energy?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #62: What will happen if I fail and don’t get the result I want? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What will happen if I fail and don’t get the result I want?</em> Troy Hoffman talks about his view on an important topic. Failure has stopped countless amounts of people from achieving their dreams. If people looked at failure as a learning lesson, they could use it as a driving force to live the life they have always imagined.</p>
<p>Failure is a gift. It teaches us so much. We fail, then we learn, then we fail and learn again. And we start stacking the learnings. <strong>Anytime we are doing something new, we are going to fail.</strong> It’s inevitable.</p>
<p>Catch this. You WILL eventually get results if you don’t quit. Wake up everyday and keep going, do the work, and stay consistent. If you set a date to accomplish something, then the date arrives and you haven’t quite gotten there yet, <strong>it doesn’t matter if you failed as long as you gave it everything you can.</strong></p>
<p>Now, you can look back and say, “Here’s the results I got with the effort I put in. How do I improve?” Then you course correct again and again until you get your desired results. If you don’t give up, you’ll look back at the old you 10 years ago and be so proud of yourself. You will be living the life you created with hard work and perseverance. All because you chose not to quit.</p>
<p>How has fear of failure gotten in the way of your success?</p>

      <title>DailyQ #61: What do you do when your friends and family don’t support your dreams? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What do you do when your friends and family don’t support your dreams?</em> Troy Hoffman gives his advice on what to do in the very possible situation of not having the support you thought you would get from loved ones when following your dreams. But a lot of the time, their reaction shouldn’t be taken at face value. Here’s why.</p>
<p>You've got this passion inside of your heart. You've got this fire burning your belly that wants to give birth to something greater than what you are currently living in right now. But when you excitedly tell your loved ones the great news, they don’t seem as enthused as you. They try to talk you out of it. They give you a laundry list of why you shouldn’t get ahead of yourself, and to plan a life with more stability and certainty.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, this is the crappy reality of chasing a dream and a vision that others cannot see. Sometimes, the people that love us are not going to understand us best. Unless someone has gone done a similar path themselves, all they can see is the mountain ahead that you have to climb. So funny enough, they’ll try to protect you from the hurt failure causes.</p>
<p>Understanding this, and moving forward despite the lack of support, is how a majority of entrepreneurs achieve their dreams. You’ve got to cut out the noise. They are going to think you are crazy. It’s part of the process. If you can be armored with this knowledge from the beginning, you can save yourself a lot of heartache on your journey.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #60: What do I do when the pain of a breakup has turned my life upside down? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What do I do when the pain of a breakup has turned my life upside down?</em> Troy Hoffman discusses the all-consuming pain of heartbreak. There is no getting around the awful feeling of losing someone you love and the life you envisioned for your future with that person. But there are things we can do to keep our sense of self-worth and use the experience as a stepping stone in becoming who we were put on this planet to become.</p>
<p><strong>Happiness is about becoming the best version of ourselves we can possibly be.</strong> Unfortunately, breakups can have us doing an about-face into self-destruction. I’ve been there – several times. For a second, try to forget about the breakup and the issues and what you could have done better, or how that person hurt you. Are you happy with the person you are? Are you getting the results you want out of life?</p>
<p>It always comes back into who we believe ourselves to be. Each and every single one of us is special. We are dynamic individuals. <strong>Are you giving yourself enough credit for the amazing being that you are?</strong> Or are you riddled with negative self-talk? Are you making sure to be grateful for and take care of the body that houses your life? Or are you lying in bed listening to sad songs?</p>
<p>You’ve got to will yourself to care for yourself right now. <strong>Be your own best friend.</strong> The truth is, you are the only person that can help you right now. You’ve got to do the work. As soon as you catch yourself going done that road of heartache, stop and redirect. Go for that walk. Visit a friend. Meditate. Read a good book. GROW.</p>
<p>Every relationship is a gift. Look for the lesson. Soon enough you will realize the obstacles you face in life help you to grow into the person that you are destined to become.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #59: How can I stay focused when not getting sales? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How can I stay focused on my dreams when I am not getting the sales or the results I want?</em> Troy Hoffman gets real about what is actually going on when you feel like you can’t go on and you feel like you are getting nowhere. This is a frustrating place to be. Troy asks the tough questions needed to help you regain clarity when the future seems grim.</p>
<p>What do you do when you feel like you are doing everything you can but the sales are just not there and you aren’t getting the results you want? Now this may come off harsh but <strong>you need to be completely honest with yourself.</strong> Think about the answers to these questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Is your vision big enough?</li>
<li>Is it big enough to matter?</li>
<li>Is your vision so big that it forces you to take action every single day?</li>
<li>Is your reason why important to you that it keeps you going, even when you get stuck?</li>
</ul>
<p>You are inevitably going to experience some trying days on your journey to success. It takes grit to keep a company running. There will be times when the self-doubt, others’ doubt, pressure and uncertainty will make you feel like all four walls are closing in on you. <strong>You need to have a vision bigger than you of WHAT you are doing and WHY.</strong></p>
<p>What is your vision and is your vision big enough to matter to you to keep going?</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do I close the deal?</em> Troy Hoffman gives powerful advice for those who can’t quite seem to make the sale. Have your pen and notepad out folks! Get ready for some amazing tips and advice on how you can finally make your breakthrough in sales.</p>
<p><strong>In order to master sales, you first have to dive deep into who you are as a person.</strong> Take every self-assessment test you can find and then go through each of those reports to identify the top ten things that resonate with you. This will show you where you are in the sales process by determining how people perceive you. Then find people you can practice your sales pitch and technique to, and ask for feedback.</p>
<p>The next thing you want to do to become a successful salesperson is to LEARN. <strong>Educate yourself.</strong> There are so many amazing books to devour and courses to crash into. Find the resources that work best for you.</p>
<p>And finally, when it comes to what you are selling, <strong>do you have integrity?</strong> Have you taken the time to really learn about the product? Have you practiced your pitch multiple times? Do you know it like the back of your hand? And most importantly, do you BELIEVE in it? Because when you know what you are talking about and you are passionate about it as well, you exude confidence and build trust. Because when you master yourself, your product and your pitch, people will be lining up to come and buy from you!</p>
<p>Ask yourself, what three things can I do to up my sales game?</p>

      <title>DailyQ #57: How do I maintain the business I am currently operating? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>My previous three businesses failed. How do I maintain the one I am currently operating?</em> Troy Hoffman speaks on the touchy subject of business failure. We all know it can be tough to pick yourself back up time and time again. Listen to Troy’s advice on what to do to ensure success in business this time around.</p>
<p>People think business is easy. Once we enter into this world, however, we soon realize <strong>how easy it is to fail when you have never built something from the ground up.</strong> Then what happens? We realize we are in the wrong business. We run out of capital. We have the wrong people on our team. We discover the entire business has disappeared due to advanced technology. Then we eventually give up.</p>
<p>The life of a successful entrepreneur is filled with never-ending growth and development.  In order to maintain the business you have now, make sure you are constantly joining groups and programs specific to entrepreneurship and your business niche. You should be devouring every book you can get your hands on in the subject and applying the beneficial lessons you learn. Most importantly, <strong>STAY FOCUSED AND CONSISTENT.</strong> The more you do, the more you can adapt and make the best moves possible to keep your business moving forward.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #56: How can I be more positive? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How can I be more positive?</em> Troy Hoffman talks about the importance of positivity. Today, more than ever before, people around the world are lifting each other up and spreading the message of positivity. A life with a positive outlook and mindset will take you much further than a negative one will.</p>
<p>The language we speak to ourselves and to others is so important. You see, <strong>we frame our world by the words that come out of our mouths.</strong> How are you framing the situations in your life? Come up with a mantra for your life. Repeat it to yourself and aloud throughout the day. Some examples are:</p>
<ul>
<li>I was built for success!</li>
<li>I am destined for greatness!</li>
<li>I will do whatever it takes to lead my people!</li>
<li>I am willing to pay whatever price it takes to move this goal forward!</li>
<li>I am the creator of my reality!</li>
</ul>
<p>Whatever you choose are YOUR mantra, be sure to put energy and emotion behind it. My personal favorites are, “I will do today what others won’t, so I can live today like others can’t,” and “I am built to become an empire and legacy leaver.” I started framing my world with these words in my first weeks of waiting tables. Repeating these powerful sayings over and over again throughout my journey has given me courage when I needed it most.</p>
<p><em>Today, think about where you need to change your language to speak positivity into your life.</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #55: Is it better to develop a dedicated sales team or to have a revolving door? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Is it better to develop a small dedicated sales team or to have a revolving door of hiring, recruiting, and training?</em> Troy Hoffman gives his take on the sales team hiring process. Because there are many moving parts to this question, Troy helpfully offers his view on several different scenarios.</p>
<p>The interesting thing about this question is that <strong>it really does depend on your business.</strong> Some companies would benefit from the revolving door metaphor because it needs tons of recruits to come in, make quick sales to close family and friends and then disappear. Because it honestly takes a while to develop new leads after that.</p>
<p>On the other hand, some organizations are better off building an elite team of dedicated individuals, those of which you really take the time and money to invest in to make sure they thoroughly understand and master their skills. However, in some cases, there isn’t much money left over to retain people. So they MUST produce results!</p>
<p>To find out which way your company should go, ask yourself these questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>What outcome are you seeking from your sales team?</li>
<li>At what cost?</li>
<li>At what result?</li>
<li>In what timeframe?</li>
<li>What is your budget?</li>
</ul>
<p><em>After listening to this episode, which route do you think would work best for your company?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #54: How do you deal with the daily pressures of life? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do you deal with the daily pressures of life?</em> Troy Hoffman touches on the imperative subject of <strong>mental health</strong>. This goes beyond running a business, although it is near impossible to be successful in this area when your mind, body, and spirit are not right. Troy speaks about how you can maintain your overall health in order to live the life you want and deserve.</p>
<p>We are living in some really tough times. Every day, we are faced with challenges, negativity, crisis, and disaster. The problems just seem to stack up when you add in the inevitable personal issues that life takes us through. We all have battles that we are facing. If we haven’t built up a strong internal fortitude, getting through them will seem like an impossible feat. But I have great news - <strong>life doesn’t have to be this way</strong>.</p>
<p>We've got to architect our life in a way where we live it daily so we can handle whatever pressure comes our way every single day. Here are some maintenance questions you can ask yourself in order to be ready for whatever life throws at you:</p>
<ul>
<li>Am I working out regularly?</li>
<li>Am I eating healthy daily</li>
<li>Am I consistently meditating?</li>
<li>Am I doing my breathing exercises?</li>
<li>Am I letting the important people in my life know how grateful I am for them?</li>
<li>Am I pouring out joy and love?</li>
<li>Am I keeping a gratitude list?</li>
<li>Am I journaling daily?</li>
<li>Am I learning/teaching something new every day?</li>
</ul>
<p>Whatever it is, when you are loving yourself and pouring love into the world, you are going to be less likely to allow yourself to slip into that abyss of depression or overwhelm or doubt. When you are contributing to the world, you feel good about yourself and you being to feel the power of growth fill your life. Progress equals happiness. Remember that.</p>
<p><em>Ask yourself, where are you now with handling life’s pressure? Where do you want to be? And what daily disciplines are you going to apply to your life to get there?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #53: How do I develop more trust between my employees?  -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>How do I develop more trust between my employees? In this week’s series special, Troy Hoffman speaks on the issue of trust. This subject is a huge issue in the workforce. And although the concept is simple, many people overlook the importance of this key characteristic.</p>
<p>Trust is key in any relationship, whether it’s personal or work-related. <strong>Trust is simple. You follow through on your word.</strong> If you for some reason can’t, you immediately go to the person and apologize for failing them. IT’S THAT SIMPLE.</p>
<p>However, trust is constantly being broken. This can be super damaging for an organization. I’ve heard of huge corporations losing millions of dollars over this issue. <strong>Lack of trust and follow-through has shut down many businesses.</strong></p>
<p>We have to look within ourselves to get to the core of the issue:</p>
<ul>
<li>Where in your life are you not exhibiting trust in your actions?</li>
<li>Are you constantly late?</li>
<li>Do you fail to keep your word?</li>
<li>Do you do way too much bullshitting?</li>
</ul>
<p>As a leader, <strong>you must train people to trust you.</strong> Do this by following through on your word as often as possible. But you are human, and if something comes up, let you people know right away. Then reset your commitments and boundaries. People will follow your actions.<br />
So, as I asked earlier, where in your life are you not exhibiting trust in your actions?</p>

      <title>DailyQ #52: How can I get more accountability in my organization with my team? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How can I get more accountability in my organization with my team?</em> In this week’s series special, Troy Hoffman touches on the subject of accountability, and the wonders it can do for not only your business, but also your life. Accountability is a terrific form of measurement. And we all know, whatever can be measured can always be improved.</p>
<p><strong>Accountability has transformed my life.</strong> It’s also done wonders for the growth of the company. You see, people aren’t machines. You can’t just program them to do specific actions like you would software. People have free will. They have different perceptions and ways of going about certain things.</p>
<p><strong>Accountability is something that is literally created every single day, over and over again.</strong> It takes time for the team to gain clarity of what result we’re striving for and what course of action is best to take. And it requires accountability to set up a framework and a system that everybody decides on to become that well-running machine.</p>
<p>So, as a team we are constantly looking at the different aspects of accountability. We are constantly collecting data, doing reviews and surveys every month. This way, we can look at things from multiple levels and angles. <strong>It’s what makes us peak performers.</strong></p>
<p>Most importantly, as a leader, I've got to be accountable. I've got to constantly step up every day, keep showing up, keep grinding, keep pushing and making sure I'm performing at the highest level possible so I do not drop the ball.</p>
<p><em>How do you hold yourself accountable?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #51: How do you stay focused? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do you stay focused?</em> In this week’s series special, Troy Hoffman lets us in how he gets laser focused for <strong>maximum productivity</strong>. It takes a lot to run a successful business. Find out how Troy is able to make it all happen.</p>
<p>I know I’m not the only one who constantly has tons of ideas coming at me, sometimes all at once. I’m always wanting to move things forward, then I’ll attend another seminar or read a new book and before you know it, I’m in information overload. This is when I determine where I need to focus my attention. I ask myself, <strong>“What’s the most logical next step moving forward?”</strong></p>
<p><strong>Calendar blocking will seriously move the needle forward in this area of your life.</strong> You literally must spend your Sundays (or whatever day works best for you) getting clear on what it is that you want for your company. Ask yourself:</p>
<ul>
<li>What’s my next move?</li>
<li>What’s going to get me sales?</li>
<li>What is going to help the operations to run better?</li>
<li>What is going to keep me healthy?</li>
<li>Who am I going to delegate tasks and projects to?</li>
</ul>
<p>Another thing that helps me to stay focused is to <strong>energize and reenergize</strong>. If I notice myself getting bored, tired or my mind starts drifting off, I take a walk or talk to someone that I know will help charge me up again.</p>
<p>It’s all about keeping that fire burning. Maintenance is key. At the end of your days and weeks, determine what did or did not work, and adjust accordingly.</p>
<p><em>What routines or rituals help you to stay focused?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #50: How do the first hires of an organization affect the company’s culture? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>How do the first hires of an organization affect the company’s culture? In this week’s episode of “The Daily Question,” Troy Hoffman expresses the importance of your company having the right people on board from the start. <strong>The way you approach the hiring process can literally make or break your business</strong>, so it crucial to tread carefully and strategically.</p>
<p>I cannot emphasize enough that building a strong company culture is the foundation of its success:</p>
<ul>
<li>the way people interact</li>
<li>the way they work</li>
<li>the way they show up every day</li>
<li>the way they grind</li>
<li>the way people pour their hearts into what they do</li>
</ul>
<p>All of these factors will truly impact the success or failure of a company and the growth projectory and <strong>how far it will or will not go</strong>.</p>
<p>It’s for this reason that <strong>you must be slow to hire</strong>. Go through a really in-depth process of really identifying what qualities you want in a person and what skills your company needs. Find the best that you possibly can afford at each stage. Trust me when I say, it will pay dividends later. It may cost you more now, but it will save you so much more in the future.</p>

<li>the way they show up every day</li>
<li>the way they grind</li>
<li>the way people pour their hearts into what they do</li>
</ul>
<p>All of these factors will truly impact the success or failure of a company and the growth projectory and <strong>how far it will or will not go</strong>.</p>
<p>It’s for this reason that <strong>you must be slow to hire</strong>. Go through a really in-depth process of really identifying what qualities you want in a person and what skills your company needs. Find the best that you possibly can afford at each stage. Trust me when I say, it will pay dividends later. It may cost you more now, but it will save you so much more in the future.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #49: What are the top three things a CEO must do? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>What are the top three things a CEO must do? In today’s episode of “The Daily Question,” Troy Hoffman breaks down how business owners can identify what area of their company they need to focus on. And it all comes down to these key points:</p>
<ul>
<li>What stage of growth is your company in?</li>
<li>What type of company are you running?</li>
<li>How many employees do you have?</li>
</ul>
<p>I get asked this question quite often in a few different ways. There is no cut-and-dry answer because <strong>every business is different and where focus points are constantly changing.</strong></p>
<p>In the beginning years of your business, there is going to be a lot of trial and error – sometimes expensive errors. And there will be a lot of apologies. There’s no way around it. <strong>It’s all part of the process.</strong></p>
<p>The three main categories people talk about are:</p>
<ol>
<li>Sales</li>
<li>Operations</li>
<li>Growth and Vision</li>
</ol>
<p>Get clear in these areas. Make a detailed 30, 60 and 90 day plan. Then take action! Measure you results, then course-correct as needed.</p>
<p><em>Ask yourself, what area of your business needs to be focused right now for maximum growth?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #48: What books are you actually reading right now? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What books are you actually reading right now?</em>  In this week’s series special, Troy Hoffman reveals which books he is currently reading and which audiobooks he is listening to. Successful people know there is always learning and growing to do. As William S. Burroughs profoundly says, “When you stop growing, you start dying.”</p>
<p>Ask yourself, “What books do I need to start reading?” Reading is an amazing way to learn from geniuses in any field you are looking to grow in. <strong>Grab a book, and you are instantly holding years of life lessons from the author.</strong></p>
<p>Currently, I am reading two fascinating books at the same time that, interestingly enough coincide perfectly with one another. One is called <strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Creature-Jekyll-Island-Federal-Reserve/dp/0912986468/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=&amp;sr=">The Creature from Jekyll Island</a> by Edward Griffin</strong>. The other is <strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Principles-Life-Work-Ray-Dalio/dp/1501124021">Principles: Life and Work</a> by Ray Dalio</strong>. They both delve into the world of money and the world’s banking system.</p>
<p>Another book that I highly recommend is by Peter Diamandis and it’s called <strong>Bold</strong>. This guy is always on the cutting edge and is constantly looking and thinking into the future.</p>
<p>And remember, if you can’t seem to find the time to sit down with a hard copy, listen to the audio version during your daily commute and/or workout.</p>
<p><em>What books do you need to get your hands on to help you excel in your area of business and in life?</em></p>

This is something that anyone with big dreams and goals will inevitably face. But what do you do when you are faced with this challenge on your journey to success?</p>

<p>This is more common than you may think. When launching a company you are constantly course correcting. And the problem in life is, <strong>we don’t know what we don’t know.</strong></p>
<p>You must be able to learn and relearn, fall and get back up. The truth is, you are going to waste tons of money, and tons of time. It’s just going to happen.</p>
<p><strong>Give yourself permission to fail.</strong> And don’t ever give up.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #46: How do you stay healthy under the insanity of business? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do you stay healthy under the insanity of running a business?</em> In this week’s special series, Troy Hoffman highlights the three main areas you should focus on for optimal health. Troy promises that if you focus on these key factors, you will notice amazing changes almost immediately.</p>
<p>The list goes like this: First and foremost, <strong>are you adequately hitting your sleep target?</strong> Are you clear on the amount of sleep you need to wake up feeling refreshed? I spent months studying my sleep patterns to learn how to <strong>master the art of sleep</strong>.</p>
<p>Hydration is the next component of ensuring you have maximum energy. <strong>Are you adequately hydrating?</strong> Believe it or not, some people are unable to absorb water by simply drinking it.</p>
<p>After sleep and hydration, we dive into nutrition. <strong>Are you aware of your food intolerances?</strong> Personally, I get ridiculously congested when I have gluten, dairy or eggs. And it lasts for days and sometimes weeks. Discovering this about myself has drastically improved my energy so that I am able to have the stamina to run my businesses successfully.</p>
<p><em>So my question is, are you fully aware of what your body needs to perform at its highest ability day in and day out?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #45: Are you measuring your life daily, monthly and quarterly? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Are you measuring your life daily, monthly and quarterly?</em> In this week's special series, Troy Hoffman poses some crucial questions for listeners seeking to elevate in all areas of life. Identifying our measure of success is key to manifesting our vision.</p>
<p>When looking at your roadmap, decide what it is that you want. Where you want to build your company and what you want to make. How you want employees to feel about their personal growth in life.</p>
<p>So, the question is, how are you going to measure this? <em><strong>Do you measure growth by economics, triggers, overall happiness, amount of love you experience in life, the transformation in your heart, gut, spirit, and mind, or by the information you're learning?</strong></em></p>
<p><strong>Numbers and dollars are not what life is, but an exchange to live a certain lifestyle.</strong></p>
<p>Growth comes from our mindset. The way we think, act, process, build rapport, connect with others, and interact with loved ones helps us grow. <em>How are you measuring success in your life?</em></p>
<p>You get to choose what to measure and who you want to become. You get to choose how you want to impact the world.</p>
<p><strong>The events, the pain, and the problems of the past have produced my desired vision for the future.</strong> I got clear on what I wanted to do and who I wanted to be. Personal transformations, books read, people impacted, and love poured became my measurement.</p>
<p><em>What measure must you track to become that which you want?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #42: Am I doing the right activities to get the result I am seeking? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Am I doing the right activities to get the result I am seeking?</em> In this week's special series, Troy Hoffman poses some crucial questions for listeners seeking to elevate in all areas of life. Becoming elite at calendaring and time-management is key to building a successful roadmap.</p>
<ul>
<li>Are you doing the right activities?</li>
<li>Are you spending your time in the right areas?</li>
<li>Are you disciplining yourself specifically to get the results you want?</li>
</ul>
<p>Sunday planning sessions are key in identifying completed tasks and time spent the previous week. As you become more elite in managing life, you realize <em><strong>time is finite</strong></em>. <strong>Those seeking results and success must ensure they are maximizing their calendar.</strong> Get clear on where your intention, focus and energy and is directed.</p>
<p><strong>Cheer yourself on as you move the needle forward, because no one else will.</strong></p>
<p>Maintain clarity on the results you seek, so you can course correct when something doesn't work. <strong>Course corrections are part of life.</strong> Often in business, there's no rules or fixed methods, we create roadways as we go.</p>
<p>If you're running a business, a department, or some aspect of your life, ask yourself: <em>What do I need to stop doing? What do I need to start doing? What do I need to continue doing to keep getting results in my life?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #41: How committed are you? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How committed are you?</em> In this week's special series, Troy Hoffman poses some crucial questions for listeners seeking to elevate in all areas of life. Achieving our goals requires steadfast diligence to burden or conquer daily trials.</p>
<p><strong>How committed are you to whatever you are truly seeking in life?</strong> The vision you have for your life, you must commit to seeing it through no matter what. <strong>Are you seeing ahead of you?</strong></p>
<p>Prepare yourself for the <strong>pain</strong> you're willing to endure, the <strong>price</strong> you're willing to pay, and the <strong>sacrifices</strong> you're willing to offer. Whatever we do in business or life, our level of commitment, determination, and sacrifice governs how far things move forward. Daily consistency and endurance, through all the problems and drama, over long periods of time is required to succeed.</p>
<p><em><strong>If you are committed, you will not give up, because every day brings a new challenge.</strong></em> We must remain devout to whatever daily action is required to achieve our goals.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #40: Who is the most successful person you have ever met? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Who is the most successful person you have ever met? What made them successful?</em> Troy Hoffman reflects on his days as a chauffeur for a self-made man who disciplined himself to fuel his mind daily with insights from the greats.</p>
<p>I've been blessed to meet so many dynamic individuals, but one of the greatest was <a href="http://www.peterjdaniels.com/">Peter J. Daniels</a>. At 27 years old he gave his life to god and commited to giving away more money than anyone else has ever done before. <strong>This crusade transformed his life.</strong> He learned how to read and discipline himself to become successful.</p>
<p>Listening to and reading all the best motivational speakers tapes and books proved to pay dividends. <strong>He created an intense desire to educate himself daily.</strong> Laying these bricks became the foundation for his thriving empire. Examining the habits, thoughts, and actions of those who achieved things beyond imagination, he employed these tactics and taught them to others.</p>
<p><em>Pouring into your mind will change your actions and the influence you have on the world.</em></p>
<p><strong>Invest in yourself every single day!</strong></p>

      <title>DailyQ #39: How do I deal with upper management working staff to death? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do I deal with upper management working staff to death?</em> Troy Hoffman breaks down the process to create crucial conversations in the workplace. We all have blind spots unless we open effective dialogues that expose solutions from all angles.</p>
<p>Every company experiences this problem with cross-department dysfunction. The top pushes harder thinking employees can manage more, while the bottom feels overextended and middle management is torn between sides.</p>
<p>This happens when companies fail to identify:</p>
<ul>
<li>Real expectations for the cost</li>
<li>Behaviors expected that conflict with costs</li>
<li>Metrics to manage efficiency</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Gather as many expectations and metrics possible to line up with costs, which enables you to create a balanced scorecard.</strong> Do you understand pay for performance systems? Learning how to implement these before presenting all this information to management. This will begin the dialogue.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-Conversations-Talking-Stakes-Second/dp/0071771328/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1541053940&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=crucial%20conversation%20book">Crucial Conversations</a>, by Kerry Patterson, details key communication principles perfect for this application. Effectively sharing this data allows everyone to get clear on the metrics.</p>
<ol>
<li>Are you clear on the ideal expectations for each accountant?</li>
<li>What are the systems that are working for you? Which ones are not working?</li>
<li>Where is there potential for improvement and how can that be facilitated?</li>
</ol>
<p><em>What is your recommended solution?</em> Upper-management will have a unique perspective that can't be seen from below, but they must be presented with your view. <strong>Our job is to become masterful at crucial conversations and colliding in a specific way to solve problems.</strong> Keep presenting your metrics and beliefs, so everyone can see the globe from all angles.</p>
<p><strong>Opening a dialogue enabling others to see what we see, expands their view of the possibilities.</strong></p>
<p>Every relationship has unmet expectations, so we must approach these conversations without emotion to minimize dysfunction. There is no perfect communication, there are no perfect relationships, and certainly no perfect businesses.</p>
<p>Methods and channels of communication set one company apart from another. <em><strong>The openness to outside opinions walking through the door and receiving them empowers you to work challenges together from all angles.</strong></em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #38: Can you explain the Core 4 and how it works? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Can you explain the Core 4 and how it works?</em> Troy Hoffman breaks down each area of the Core 4 and explains how it puts you in power every day. Initiating daily growth and expansion each morning will maximize your results.</p>
<p>I just flipped through The Millionaire Morning, by Lewis Howes, where he talks about his morning routine. <em>Almost everybody who is achieving something, is living and dying by habits.</em></p>
<p><strong>The Core 4 is a simple routine to choose a framework for each area of your life.</strong></p>
<ol>
<li><em><strong>What daily activity fuels your Body?</strong></em> Choose a healthy nutritional and physical activity every morning, like a veggie drink and a workout.</li>
<li><em><strong>What daily activity charges your Being?</strong></em> Meditation and journaling are key! <a href="http://thework.com/en/do-work">The Stack by Byron Katie</a> is a great model, asking crucial conversations questions, or simply recording three things you're grateful for.</li>
<li><em><strong>What daily activity builds Balance in your relationships?</strong></em> Write love notes to your significant other and your kids. Sticky notes written by hand are great, but calls or text work as well. If you don't have kids, use this opportunity to build rapport with family and friends. Consider how often we power throughout the day without ever expressing thanks to the people in our life. Tell them, &quot;Hi, I love you and I'm glad you're in my life.&quot; If everyone thanks 2 people a day, how much better would this world be?</li>
<li><em><strong>What daily activity stimulates your Business?</strong></em> Pick something new to learn and someone to teach. We must study to ensure we're actively growing each day. What do you need to learn?</li>
</ol>
<p>Are you doing the daily Core 4 before you hit the door? <strong>Let it put you in power to ensure you're growing and expanding each day to achieve the dreams you want.</strong></p>

      <title>DailyQ #37: How do you become a CEO? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do you become a CEO?</em> Troy Hoffman reflects on the duties of a Chief Executive Officer. Ultimately, there is no exact science to the job, but clarity in vision is most important. You must drive the team up a treacherous mountain, open to growth in the process and acceptance of the outcome.</p>
<p>I remember 5-7 years ago googling myself, &quot;What does a CEO do?&quot; I was overwhelmed reading all this information about the daily and weekly activities, but what I realized is - As you grow and learn, you get to decide what that is during the process.</p>
<p><strong>You have to be clear on the vision.</strong></p>
<p>Do not allow people to battle with you, force their perspective, and sidetrack your vision. Prepare for the non-believers. They'll be convinced you should journey down a different path or your vision will fail. So, you have to live with your results. Clarity and passion are necessary to drive that vision. All the finances, hiring, consulting, roadblocks, organization, and goals for the entire team must work to achieve your vision.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #36: What is your daily schedule? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What is the daily schedule you use to keep everything going in your life?</em> Troy Hoffman brakes down his entire schedule from rise to sleep. There is only so much time in the day, which is why every moment must be efficiently scheduled.</p>
<p><strong>The older you get the more sleep you need to stay sharp.</strong> My latest discipline is detailed below.</p>
<ol>
<li>Rise at 7am.</li>
<li>Guzzle 2 glasses of water, supplements and coffee.</li>
<li>Bounce on the trampoline.</li>
<li>Workout routine for the day.</li>
<li>Complete a stack.</li>
<li>Drink a 64 oz. veggie drink.</li>
<li>Read for a bit.</li>
<li>Phone Calls (on the way to the office).</li>
<li>Send a few loving texts.</li>
<li>At the office and in meetings.</li>
<li>Do something for myself around noon.</li>
<li>Eat around 3pm.</li>
<li>Meditation for 20min. and nap for 10min.</li>
<li>Return to phone calls.</li>
<li>Work on projects during after-hours at the office.</li>
<li>Sleep by 11pm or 12am.</li>
</ol>
<p>The morning workout is key to energizing my body, whether it's a run/walk, surfing, weights or stretching. Next, The Stack, a series of questions helps me clear triggers and get focused. My veggie drink energizes me for the day and I'm out the door. In the afternoon, I may get body work or a <a href="http://www.ascentadaptation.com/cvac/">CVAC</a> (<a href="http://www.ascentadaptation.com/cvac/">Cyclic Variation Altitude Conditioning</a>) session, during which I'll knockout emails and phone calls. Afternoon meditations and naps are essential for powering me through the evening workload. Every night we work on projects till 8 or 9pm at night, before heading home and preparing for bed.</p>
<p>Saturday is project day, which requires deep thought and action, recording podcasts and shooting shows. While Sundays are filled with more sleep, body work, and something fun. Weekly scheduling is an important part of Sunday evenings when every single hour is accounted for, packed with things I want to fulfill that will achieve the results I am seeking in my life.</p>
<p><strong>You can have a filled schedule or a fulfilled schedule.</strong></p>
<p><em>What do you need to add to your schedule, that will fulfill you and your requirements for your life, to achieve the results you are seeking?</em>  <strong>It's our choice - what we want to manifest in our life. The #1 resource is time.</strong> <em>How are you using your time? Where in your life do you need to schedule better?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #35: What failure lead to something successful? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What great failure lead to something truly successful in your life?</em> Troy Hoffman considers the art of turning trials into triumphs and how every costly mistake over the years has strengthened his company.</p>
<p>Immediately I'm reminded of <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Obstacle-Way-Timeless-Turning-Triumph/dp/B00K5JUNSU">The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday</a>, which is a fantastic read. When we started the first company, the obstacles in my way, were all the challenges in our database, automation, data, tracking, and mailing. These failures early on have driven us to build an elite software platform for our industry. Our investment in software, tech, and systems will simulate our growth and long-term stability.</p>
<p>We're now microscopic in diagnosing issues. If we didn't screw up errors that cost hundreds of thousands, we wouldn't have build security measures and artificial intelligence that enhance our quality of service. As a result, our customers will love the attention to detail.</p>
<p><strong>Because, details matter!</strong></p>
<p><em>Where in your life have you failed and found opportunity or lessons in the obstacle?</em> We fail every day in our lives. We get angry, say the wrong things, and make poor business decisions, but the key to success is learning to build around your failures. <strong>The purpose of life in general is truly expansion.</strong> We have to apply this principal to our business life.</p>
<p><em>Where do you need to expand in your life from your failures?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #34: Do I need to adapt my sales approach for every market? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Do I need to adapt my sales approach for every new market I go after?</em> Troy Hoffman insists you must believe in your product and understand your customer first. Then you can set a frame that will transform the way you position your products.</p>
<p><strong>Become masterful at speaking into the language of their hearing.</strong></p>
<p><a href="https://www.tonyrobbins.com/">Tony Robbins</a>, <a href="http://mattbrauning.com/">Matt Browning</a> and other coaches talk about the power of <a href="http://www.nlp.com/">NLP: Neuro Linguistic Programming</a>. Speaking into someones listening will take your sales to the next level. You have to do mirroring, matching, and get clear on what your customers are looking for.</p>
<p><strong>Rule #1: Make sure you believe in what you're selling.</strong></p>
<p><em>Are you sure you have an amazing product? Do you have something that will change lives? Is your pricing model better? What makes you or your product better than the competition?</em> After you understand yourself and product, you can approach customers with clarity.</p>
<p>Who are your customers? Where are they on the <a href="https://www.discprofile.com/what-is-disc/overview/">DISC</a> assessment, <a href="http://www.kolbe.com/">Kolbe Index</a>, or personality scores? You have to get clear on the frame you are selling into. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Pitch-Anything-Innovative-Presenting-Persuading/dp/0071752854">Pitch Anything by Oren Klaff</a> is a great read that will teach how to setup these frames. If your true aim is to impact lives and give to people, you will sell and business will grow.</p>
<p><em>What area in your life do you need to grow, learn or practice to increase your sales game? What action are you going to take in the next 24-48hrs to achieve what you want?</em></p>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Do I need to adapt my sales approach for every new market I go after?</em> Troy Hoffman insists you must believe in your product and understand your customer first. Then you can set a frame that will transform the way you position your products.</p>
<p><strong>Become masterful at speaking into the language of their hearing.</strong></p>
<p><a href="https://www.tonyrobbins.com/">Tony Robbins</a>, <a href="http://mattbrauning.com/">Matt Browning</a> and other coaches talk about the power of <a href="http://www.nlp.com/">NLP: Neuro Linguistic Programming</a>. Speaking into someones listening will take your sales to the next level. You have to do mirroring, matching, and get clear on what your customers are looking for.</p>
<p><strong>Rule #1: Make sure you believe in what you're selling.</strong></p>
<p><em>Are you sure you have an amazing product? Do you have something that will change lives? Is your pricing model better? What makes you or your product better than the competition?</em> After you understand yourself and product, you can approach customers with clarity.</p>
<p>Who are your customers? Where are they on the <a href="https://www.discprofile.com/what-is-disc/overview/">DISC</a> assessment, <a href="http://www.kolbe.com/">Kolbe Index</a>, or personality scores? You have to get clear on the frame you are selling into. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Pitch-Anything-Innovative-Presenting-Persuading/dp/0071752854">Pitch Anything by Oren Klaff</a> is a great read that will teach how to setup these frames. If your true aim is to impact lives and give to people, you will sell and business will grow.</p>
<p><em>What area in your life do you need to grow, learn or practice to increase your sales game? What action are you going to take in the next 24-48hrs to achieve what you want?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #33: What questions do you challenge yourself with in the morning? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What questions do you challenge yourself with in the morning?</em> Troy Hoffman discusses how to use the stack to choose your mindset. Every morning we have an opportunity to re-create the story of our lives.</p>
<p><strong>We get the answers by the quality of the questions we ask.</strong></p>
<p>The answers you receive are proportional to the questions you seek. So, I do the stack every day, which starts with: <em>What triggered you in this moment?</em> You continue through the series of challenging queries. <em>What made you angry, sad or pissed off? What do you want for them? What do you want for yourself?</em> Tony Robins always says, <strong>&quot;to get better answers, we have to ask better questions.&quot;</strong> These questions help clear the B.S. stories and provide an opportunity to create a new one.</p>
<p><em>I don't have time to do this. I'm too old or too young. I'm too fat.</em> Imagine ridding yourself of one false story every single day. You're eliminating triggers and liberating your life. <em>I must have a hot bath every day. I have to eat a certain meal. I can't build that business, hire that person, learn clickfunnels, build that car, or master online marketing.</em> We hold ourself back with questionable stories. Are they 100% true?</p>
<p><strong>What is the new story you are going to tell yourself every day?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Awaken and remember how great you possibly can be.</li>
<li>Awaken and remember that you control your thoughts.</li>
<li>Awaken and remember you can choose the outcome you want.</li>
<li>Awaken and remember and choose the thoughts to put in your head.</li>
<li>Awaken and remember the thought-life you want to have.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Choose the positives you want to charge your body and mind, because we are deciding how to think each day.</strong></p>
<p><em>What questions do you need to ask yourself to change the stories in your head?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #32: How many hours did you work when you started your company? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How many hours did you work a week when you started your company?</em> Troy Hoffman reminisces the intensive hours, with minimal sleep, when the workdays went from 7am to 2am.</p>
<p>For about 6 days a week I operated on 4 to 6 hours of sleep. Almost 7 days a week consisted of long hours in the office for 3-5 years straight. We attended conferences often, events at night, and dropped off marketing materials during the day. We were on the go day and night. That level intensity eventually burned me out after 5 years.</p>
<ol>
<li>Do you really need to put that much effort in?</li>
<li>Get realistic on the amount of time your startup will demand.</li>
<li>Take care of yourself during the process.</li>
</ol>
<p>If you don't take care of your health during those crazy startup years, you will crash or get bored. In hindsight, a daily morning routine with healthier meals would have sustained my energy. Sleep is also essential.</p>
<p>Moreover, get coaches early in every area of your business. Don't waste money and time on something you don't understand, paying for consulting will yeild dividends in the long run.</p>
<p><em>What area of your business do you need to move forward in? Is there an area in your body you're not taking care of? What area do you need a coach or consulting in your company?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #31: How do you generate new ideas? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do you generate new ideas and actually take action on them?</em> Troy Hoffman considers the core method he uses to generate and thoroughly develop new ideas. Whiteboard sessions are crucial to visualize all possibilities, challenge the idea, and identify action steps.</p>
<p><strong>Get clear on a vision of the outcome you want.</strong></p>
<p>People often generate ideas in the following categories:</p>
<ol>
<li>An idea they want in their lives.</li>
<li>How to improve an idea already out there.</li>
<li>Construct a new framework for something that has not been created yet.</li>
</ol>
<p>Whiteboard conversations can help visually map out ideas and create clarity on buckets of ideas. We spend hours on this building a number of companies and recently on marketing for a supplement company. Through brainstorming we challenge ourselves with questions. <em>What does that company do great? What would people want to know about it. Who would want to know? What are some of the ideas of what it would look like?</em> This helps generate a clear picture of all possibilities and seeing a way forward.</p>
<p><strong>Visualization clarifies everybody's mind so they all see the same dog.</strong></p>
<p>You've got to be able to visualize it, because writing clarifies thought. After you draft ideas and draw graphics around them, determine what series of actions that need to occur afterwards. The next action steps are the most critical piece. <em>What are you going to do in the next 24 hours? Over the next 7 days, what are the activities necessary to move the idea forward?</em> These whiteboard sessions are so powerful in preventing another great idea sent off into the ethers of the world.</p>
<p><strong>You've got to be willing to pay the price of time, money, and energy to manifest the vision, the dream, the new idea and make it a reality.</strong></p>
<p><em>What action do you need to take to get a team together to whiteboard your idea?<br />
How are you going to take action on that idea?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #30: How has being an entrepreneur affected your family life? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How has being an entrepreneur affected your family life?</em> Troy Hoffman considers the sacrifices that often burdens entrepreneurs who lack the framework to balance their life.</p>
<p>Lets get <strong>real, raw and relevant</strong>. I don't have a family and I've yet to get married. For decades now my pursuit has been building company's. In the process I've learned how to create an amazing life, take care of my body, fuel my mind, and fill my spirt. Investing so much time there has pushed my relationships to the backseat.</p>
<p><strong>The amount of energy, time, focus and work demanded of an entrepreneur weighs on relationships.</strong></p>
<p>Finding the right person is key. You must create balance in your life and space for a relationship. I've screwed up so many, because I didn't have the right framework of how to operate successfully in all areas.</p>
<ol>
<li>How do you take care of your body?</li>
<li>How do you take care of your being?</li>
<li>How do you take care of your balance?</li>
<li>How do you take care of your business?</li>
</ol>
<p>Through coaching, clearing triggers, and seeking clarity on what I want in my life, I've been able to more effectively establish true connections and balance my life.</p>
<p>Being present for 5 minutes looking into your partners eyes can create true loving connection. Ask your significant other to share what their feeling. Living in that brief moment will transform your relationship.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #29: How did you find funding for your business? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How did you find funding for your business?</em> Troy Hoffman reflects on bootstrapping his company during it's early startup years. No venture capital was necessary. Growth spouted through continuous struggle and commitment.</p>
<p>A series of events put us in a great position to launch. Selling my house, savings and family loans provided the necessary capital. We would repeatedly borrow from family &amp; friends and return their loan with 10% interest. After a year, still broke, we continued to grind working for free. Not until year three did money begin flowing in.</p>
<p><strong>Starting a business takes every dollar you have.</strong></p>
<p>Offices, servers, phone systems, technology, hiring developers, we poured everything in to float the business. Despite the penniless struggle, we remained focused on building an amazing product from day one. That diligence 12 years ago put us in the amazing place we are today.</p>
<p><em><strong>What level of investment and sacrifice are you willing to offer to make your dream a reality?</strong></em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #28: Why is autonomy so important to an entrepreneur? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Why is autonomy so important to an entrepreneur?</em> Troy Hoffman describes entrepreneurs as self-governors, motivated by a variety of forces, that aim to realize the dreams of their investment.</p>
<p>Entrepreneurs often have a very specific vision, they are purpose driven or eager to impact the world, and they thrive in their steadfast journey. While you can seek council and operate with a team, your daily decisions are your own. The point person carries the burden of consequences with each choice.</p>
<p><em>Where are we going to spend our money? Where are we going to spend our time? Where are we going to spend our energy? What emotional output are we going to devote to each situation?</em></p>
<p><strong>Autonomy is something we must learn to live well.</strong></p>
<p>How are you using your time every day? If you are not comfortable with your choices, what council must you start seeking? Everyone has an opinion, but great council comes from those who have achieved in your area. They have years on the path, more time under tension, and valued wisdom to share. To get the results you want, pull these people into your life. Learn every insight that will push you massive steps forward.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #27: Do I need to write a business plan? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Do I need to write a business plan?</em> Troy Hoffman suggests briefly drafting a business plan to get an understanding of costs and timeline, but investing more effort in the work. It's going to be a grind and you need the best head start you can get.</p>
<p>Go through the exercise of putting one together and working on the economics. Dive deep into the marketing costs, startup expenses, insurance and employee expenditures. While a business plan may not be necessary, it's a great exercise to get clear on what it takes to get your idea off the ground.</p>
<p><strong>What is the vision that you want to manifest?</strong></p>
<p>If you're super clear on your vision and next steps, rather than spending two months on mundane details, start taking action. Understand your burn rate and get some revenue flowing, because your business will consume all your dollars and every ounce of your energy.</p>
<p><strong>What do you need to do today to move your business forward one step?</strong></p>
<p>A business plan will identify milestones to achieve, but it will not move you forward. You have to do the work. There are tons of books that outline the critical first startup days, like <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Launch-Critical-Days-Idea-Market/dp/1591846064">Launch</a>, by my friend <a href="https://www.scottduffy.com/">Scott Duffy</a>, or <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Paper-Napkin-Wisdom-Business-Success/dp/1599327090">Paper Napkin Wisdom by Jack Daly</a>. Check out <a href="https://www.score.org/">Score: Senior Corps of Retired Executives</a>. Spend the time researching knowledge on your specific area.</p>
<p><em>Do you have a clear vision? Are you committed to making it happen no matter what?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #26: What is the best advice you&apos;ve ever been given? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What is the best advice you've ever been given?</em> Troy Hoffman advocates reading, listening and exposing yourself to knowledge.  We can become great in any area of life by surrounding ourselves with would class minds.</p>
<p>Back in the day when I was flooded with all these questions:</p>
<ol>
<li>How do you grow in life?</li>
<li>Where do you go?</li>
<li>What do I do with my life?</li>
<li>Where is my life going?</li>
<li>What's the meaning of life?</li>
<li>Why should I be on this earth?</li>
<li>What business should I build?</li>
<li>What love life should I have?</li>
<li>What should my life look like?</li>
</ol>
<p>I was listening to tapes, attending conferences and reading as much as I could devour. One of the best pieces of advice I've ever heard way back in the early 90's was &quot;Books, tapes, and functions.&quot; It took 25 years realize the true value of this. <strong>What you read will impact your life. Listening to tapes and attending learning events will grow your mind.</strong></p>
<p>BOOKS, TAPES AND FUNCTIONS!</p>
<p><strong>Transforming the 6 inches between your ears will have the greatest impact on your life.</strong> What we're listening to, what we're reading, and the events we're around is what we'll become. Surround yourself with world class entrepreneurs, athletes, or people in whatever area you're trying to excel in. <em>Observe how they live, examine their thought patterns, track their actions, and hear their language</em>. It is key that we get this knowledge from somewhere. We may not have access to the worlds greatest leaders, but we have their books, writings, and podcasts.</p>
<p>Listening, reading and experiencing conferences will transform our life. It will change the way we see the world around us and the possibilities before us. It will change the way we treat ourselves and others. It will change the way we take action to move our life forward. Everything we read, sooner or later, will become a belief.</p>
<p><strong>We have to be, before we can do, before we can have.</strong></p>
<p>We have to create a thought-life in our minds. See the journey and see the path.</p>
<p><em>What book do you need to buy? What podcast do you need to download? Who do you need to learn and grow from? What conference do you need to register for to truly start transforming your life in a much greater way?</em></p>

      <title>DailyQ #25: What are some major mistakes startups should avoid? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What are some of the major mistakes I can avoid as a startup entrepreneur?</em> Troy Hoffman confesses it's impossible to avoid startup mistakes with a crystal ball, but great council can help evade some. Building without proficiency and as fast as possible will produce faults.</p>
<p>You can't avoid them all. They will happen and they'll be painful. Prepare yourself to accept the consequences, communicate with your team, and apologize, thats the reality in the beginning of the company.</p>
<p><strong>To avoid them, the entrepreneur must be a seeker of knowledge and apply that knowledge.</strong></p>
<p>Get in council with people experienced in an area you're trying to grow in. If you are not a genius or a guru, spend as much as you can to involve one early to setup the process. It could save you millions and impact your company. Even seemingly simple tasks like bookkeeping requires detailed tracking that will produce great reports enabling informed decision making down the line.</p>
<p><strong>Sometimes we think we are smarter than we are.</strong></p>
<p>It's critical to surround yourself with intelligence in an area of weakness. Record the conversations, google the experts, and download printouts, because startups need guidance to grow. Checkout <a href="https://www.eonetwork.org/">Entrepreneurs Organization</a>, <a href="https://www.vistage.com/">Vistage</a>, <a href="https://www.ypo.org/">YPO</a>, or <a href="http://ceocoachinginternational.com/">CEO Coaching International</a>. Getting in council with higher achievers can provide amazing feedback.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #24: How do you overcome objections? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do you overcome objections? How do you overcome the no's and obstacles?</em> Troy Hoffman insists an unwavering dedication to achieving your vision builds tenacity that conquers all challenges.</p>
<p><strong>If you are clear on the vision locked in your minds eye, nothing will stop you.</strong> You will find a way over it, under, around, and through it. There are no simple answers, just tips, techniques, and gimmicks, but the burning desire to achieve your vision will drive you.</p>
<p><em>What is that burning desire you want to manifest in your life? What life do you want to create and who do you see yourself becoming?</em> Once you have chosen your path - nothing can hold you back! You will seek, find, knock, and the answers will appear.</p>
<p><strong>Tell yourself &quot;I will do what ever it takes to make this dream happen.&quot;</strong></p>
<p>Allow your subconscious to work 24/7 and your reticular activating system will identify the next step. Take action on each roadblock one after the other. The obstacles will never stop, but you will persevere.</p>
<p>Are you dedicated? What is your vision? Once you find it, move forward one step at a time and you'll overcome all.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #23: Is overnight success truly possible? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Is overnight success truly possible?</em> Troy Hoffman encourages focusing on the process and the ever evolving pursuit for personal growth. Most grind for years in a specific area to grow and learn before achieving true success. So, the question is who do you want to become?</p>
<p><strong>It takes 3 years to figure out if you're a genius or idiot on almost any new idea.</strong></p>
<p>You may be exploring an area that's not completely defined. Consistent daily effort is required before you discover whether the business works long term or not. Few reach online success overnight without years of coding, or industry experience, or something behind them.</p>
<p><strong>Are you going to invest 12 hours a day to grow and build the vision you want?</strong></p>
<p>Fill your calendar with activities that will truly impact your life over the next several decades. You have an opportunity today to choose your direction. Choose your path and invest the time.  It's not about the success at the end, but who you become in the process.</p>
<p><strong>Success is not a destination.</strong></p>
<p><em><strong>When we become the next best version of ourselves - that is success!</strong></em> Choose to be greater. You can become an overnight success by transforming yourself, but building a company requires time, hard work, and intent decision making. Stay focused on what you want to achieve that will help you become the next best version of you.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #22: What do you look for in a mentor? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What do you look for in a mentor?</em> Troy Hoffman has received free advice, paid for mentorship, and been seeking guidance everywhere for 25 years to solve the problems in his life. Do you have the willingness to listen to council?</p>
<p>To identify a mentor:</p>
<ol>
<li>Find someone with experience in an area you want to grow in.</li>
<li>Confirm you're willing to spend time with and learn from them.</li>
<li>Ensure they want to pour into you.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Where do you want to go in your life? Where are you stuck?</strong></p>
<p>When you least expect it, the mentor will appear. When you're busy grinding and doing the work, that necessary voice will show up magically, but you've got to listen when they pour into your life. <strong>Take the action and test it for yourself.</strong> All the coaching and knowledge can be provided, but you'll continue to circle if you don't take action and apply the lessons to your life.</p>
<p><strong>Are you willing to listen to this mentor and take action from them?</strong></p>
<p>Free mentors may appear in your life and sometimes you have to pay for them, but find the person that will move you forward. Around the age of 17, I was involved with Amway and sought out mentors then. I'd drill them full of questions and have been practicing this for 25 years with every mentor around me.</p>
<p>What action are you going to take in the next 48 hours to find the mentor you need to solve your challenges? Who is that person? What are you willing to spend? What are you willing to do with the information they give you?</p>

      <title>DailyQ #21: How do you generate multi-million dollar ideas? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do you come up with multi-million dollar ideas?</em> Troy Hoffman believes genius ideas come from all over the place, but those that solve problems win. Focus on improvements and solutions applied to the marketplace.</p>
<p>Great ideas come from:</p>
<ol>
<li>People trying to solve a problem for themselves.</li>
<li>A team throwing ideas against the wall.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Where in your life do you wish something existed that does not?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Can something be improved upon in the current state it is?</strong> A lot of riches are made from niches and simple improvements to old products. Tinder was not a new online dating app. Match was dominating the industry, until the simplicity of quickly swiping through photos caught on.</p>
<p><strong>What simple improvement can build the company of your dreams?</strong></p>

      <title>DailyQ #20: How do you create accountability in the office? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How do you create accountability in the office?</em> Troy Hoffman outlines his three steps to creating accountability with the team. Like pandoras box, this ultimate question is tough, yet simple. You need to get super hyper clear or chaos will ensue.</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Get super clear on your organization.</strong> Accountability only comes from clarity of the original expectations. <em>What is the vision? Where are you going? What is your mission? What are your core values? What projects need to happen?</em>  <strong>Ambiguity = Chaos.</strong> You need a decision matrix, execution plan, and clear cut goals for each individual.</li>
<li><strong>The person held accountable needs to accept owning the task 100%.</strong> They need to step up. If everybody is responsible, then nobody is responsible.</li>
<li>You have to master the art of crucial conversations. You need clarity from everyone. It's not emotional, it's not about them, it's just about the action. <em>Where are we at with this project? How are you doing on moving this forward? Is it moving forward - yes or no? If it is blocked, what is the roadblock in the way?</em> None of the b.s. stories matter, immediately you must get refocused and clear.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>When people understand the why behind the what, they will figure out the how!</strong></p>

      <title>DailyQ #19: What did you learn from Verne&apos;s books? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What did you learn from Verne's books and apply to your life?</em> Troy Hoffman reflects on the lessons learned from <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Rockefeller-Habits-Increase-Growing/dp/0978774957">Mastering the Rockefeller Habits</a> and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Scaling-Up-Companies-Rockefeller-Habits/dp/0986019526">Scaling Up</a> by Verne Harnish. It's the simplest form of the game outlined, but employees struggled to accept and phase in these principles.</p>
<p>We went from zero employees to 50-60 in four years. There was chaos everywhere and I had just joined <a href="https://www.eonetwork.org/">EO</a> (<a href="https://www.eonetwork.org/">Entrepreneurs Organization</a>). I came across Verne's Mastering the Rockefeller Habits and was blown away by the simplicity.</p>
<p><strong>Cast a vision and get clear on direction.</strong></p>
<p><strong>How do you get quarterly and yearly planning truly going?</strong> Not your b.s. ideas or top 5 goals, but diving into true execution maps in your life. Top 5 goals that break down into each quarter, then each month, later each week, and finally applied to the weekly meetings.</p>
<p><strong>How do you execute daily huddles in your organization?</strong> This took years to implement and effort to maintain so that true communication can flow quickly and effectively. You may ask: <em>Why should I waste 15 minutes of my day? Why should I tell people what I did yesterday? Why should I share my roadblocks? Why should I share information about what's going on in the company?</em></p>
<p>These things impacted Simpluris. We have amazing people that execute at the highest level, but the speed of communication and performance improved, because I picked up a book. I read it and said, &quot;I now have a vision and I'm going after that no matter what.&quot; While it took 3-5 years to get in sync, it transformed our business.</p>
<p>How are you going to apply some of these principles to your business and your life?</p>

<p>These things impacted Simpluris. We have amazing people that execute at the highest level, but the speed of communication and performance improved, because I picked up a book. I read it and said, &quot;I now have a vision and I'm going after that no matter what.&quot; While it took 3-5 years to get in sync, it transformed our business.</p>
<p>How are you going to apply some of these principles to your business and your life?</p>

      <title>DailyQ #18: What do you do to eliminate stress? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What do you do to eliminate stress?</em> Troy Hoffman covers the basics of diving into stress. We all have so many demands making stress one of the biggest challenges for people across America right now. Identifying solutions in all areas of your life will help to minimize it.</p>
<p>We all have so many things attacking our thought process that our system never gets a chance to rest. Our minds are like metronomes jumping from one thought to another. There are so many ways to release this stress.</p>
<ul>
<li>Body - Are you working out? Engage in activities that are fun and make you happy.</li>
<li>Diet - Are you consuming the right nutrients for you?  Eating clean will fuel your body with energy and minimize stress.</li>
<li>Being - How are you taking time to still your mind? Meditation and breathing exercises will calm the nervous system.</li>
<li>Journaling - What is stressing you? Identifying the facts, feelings, focus, and fruit about your situation reveals portals of possibilities.</li>
</ul>
<p>I'm watching Will Helms and <a href="https://unbeatablemind.com/">Mark Divine</a>, an ex-navy seal, who dives deep into &quot;The Breath.&quot; Learning how to breath is so simple, but key to relaxing the mind.</p>
<p><strong>&quot;Writing clarifies thought.&quot;</strong> -- Scott Delong</p>
<p>You need clarity, information, and facts about your stress triggers. Study them and take action.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #16: What&apos;s the best morning routine to apply to my life? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What is the best morning routine to apply to my life?</em> Troy Hoffman is all too familiar with creating morning disciplines and sharing what works best for him. We should challenge our body, being, balance and business through quick activities and a routine stack to empower us for the day.</p>
<p>Larry Broughton, owner of Broughton Hotels, has an intense routine that blew me away. Check out his stuff on leadership and business <a href="https://larrybroughton.me/">here</a>. He insists, <strong>you have to see what works best for you and delivers the greatest impact in your life.</strong></p>
<p>What is going to put you in power?</p>
<p>I embrace the Core 4 before you hit the door. That involves a morning commitment to sweat, consume a veggie drink, meditate, journal, send a love note, briefly study or read, and finally share the days lesson. <strong>We learn what we teach.</strong> Quickly completing a <a href="http://thework.com/en/do-work">Stack</a>, which is a powerful process developed by Byron Katie that challenges your mindset through questions, locks in the lesson learned. When I don't do these things, my day goes awry.</p>
<p><strong>What will energize and prepare you for the day?</strong></p>

      <title>DailyQ #15: What is your favorite part about the startup grind? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What is your favorite part about the grind when starting a company?</em> Troy Hoffman discusses the thrill of embarking on an uncharted journey. The dream inside that says create, paint, climb, or build makes us feel alive. We must each find the Everest that charges us.</p>
<p><strong>This question juices me up, because I get excited about the early stages of companies like no other!</strong></p>
<p>I get super passionate about long strategic plays and building new things within an established company, but the grind when launching from scratch is amazing. You're birthing an idea. Something inside drives you to manifest your dream. There is so much energy, despite the impending collision of pain, because you're excited to learn and expand.</p>
<p><strong>Challenge yourself every day at your greatest capacity.</strong></p>
<p>Entrepreneurs are driven deeply and seek the unknown. <em>Am I going to make it or not? What do I have to do next?</em> All the results come from you and your team. The swelling excitement and fear from controlling 100% of the outcome is exhilarating. That uncertainty is like skydiving, surfing, or driving a race car. You're just going for it and living in the moment.</p>
<p><strong>You feel alive when building new things and launching a startup. The opportunity to grow and manifest a vision fills you with life.</strong></p>
<p>What is your vision? What juices you? What gets you charged to grind 18 hours a day? Ask yourself where in your life do you need to reconnect with that passion. Find the vision that wakes you with passion and charges you!</p>

      <title>DailyQ #14: What keeps you going when things get rough? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What keeps you going when things get rough?</em> Troy Hoffman shares his process for confronting the pain that impacts everyone. Realize your vision, identify your purpose, be relentless and traverse the wall.</p>
<p><strong>The good and the bad falls on everyone.</strong></p>
<p>When the triggers are firing off, whether the issue involves finance, customers, employees or relationships, you have to accept that negatives come with the positives. When facing the pain, challenge yourself with the following.</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Ask yourself, <strong>what is your vision?</strong> Connect with your <strong>why</strong>. Once you align with the top of Everest, don't lose that belief. You will try to ascend and fail, again and again, but the voice continues to fuel your vision. Know where you are going and stay resolute in your belief that you will achieve your mission.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Accept the darkness that surrounds the light.</strong> The greater the success, the greater the challenges, so learn to expand in the process. When you push beyond the threshold you will continue to grow. Every time I think, &quot;I can't do this anymore,&quot; I push through the problem and tell myself, &quot;I will not quit.&quot; <strong>Let the passion wake you up and drive you with purpose.</strong></p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>When you feel deflated, you must change your mindset. Return to the basics and <strong>reconnect with your why</strong>. You'll quickly discover the mountain can't grow any bigger, but you can.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #13: How important is sleep when building a company? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>How important is sleep when building a company?</em> Troy Hoffman stresses clarity on understanding your body and what it needs. Some can function on minimal sleep and others require more to perform at optimal levels.</p>
<p><strong>Everybody is built differently.</strong></p>
<p>There are a million books on this topic. One of the top sleep scientists recommends charting your sleep for 90 days by tracking the following daily to better understand your own body. Everyone can give you an opinion, but what does your body need?</p>
<ol>
<li>How much sleep do you need to wake naturally?</li>
<li>What caffeinated beverages are you consuming and when?</li>
<li>What foods are you consuming and when?</li>
<li>How do you feel every day?</li>
<li>What time do you go to sleep?</li>
<li>What time do you wake up?</li>
</ol>
<p>Aaron Mattes, one of the top stretching therapists in the world, who created <a href="http://www.stretchingusa.com/">active assisted isolated stretching program</a>, claimed he only needed 1.5-3hrs of sleep. He was a machine and he thrived off that. While I needed 7-9 hours of sleep, so we're just different people.</p>
<p>Get clear on what effects your sleep. <strong>Once your body is rested you will produce at a 10x factor and crust it!</strong> You'll go into meetings on fire and on purpose, because you're naturally full of energy.</p>
<p>Do you need to change your environment?  Do you need to test how much sleep is good for you? Where in your sleep cycle do you need to take action on today? Build structure around you life so you can produce the energy necessary to make an impact.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #12: What do you look for in a great employee? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What do you look for in a great employee?</em> Troy Hoffman shares the teenage origins of his work ethic and why he truly cared about performing at a high level for his employers. People grind when they care about their work.</p>
<p><strong>Look for someone that cares truly about what they're doing and drive to make it happen.</strong></p>
<p>We train 98% of the tasks, so if you can tangibly taste they can move the needle forward, they're a great fit at Simpluris.</p>
<p>I dug ditches, installed sprinkler systems and pulled weeds at a plant nursery for John Relleno before I got my massage license at 17. I busted my ass, because I wanted to do a great job for him. So, I turned my work into a game. I truly cared for that property. That commitment has driven my work ethic everywhere I've been employed.</p>
<p>When working for other people, I was driven, I cared about my work. <strong>Thats what I look for - deep care and drive!!</strong></p>
<p>What in your life do you care about and what drives you? Who do you need to let go of and who do you need to hire?</p>

      <title>DailyQ #11: Why is scheduling out the week so important? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Why is it so important to schedule out your entire week?</em> Troy Hoffman explains as life gets more complex, responsibilities expand, and ideas pile up, meticulous scheduling becomes even more important. You better understand your tasks, realistic timelines, and priorities.</p>
<p><strong>Every stage of life requires a different stage of you.</strong></p>
<p>One of the best ways to control life is to get realistic about what can get done in a 7-day timeframe. Knowing how much sleep you need starts each day with your body on an efficient cycle. Schedule the time you wake up, go to sleep, and everything in between. The more you stack brings a realization of the time required to accomplish tasks.</p>
<p><strong>What you say you are going to do - you actually will do!</strong></p>
<p>You get realistic on time to avoid overcommitment and produce results. Create the credibility within yourself, so you can drive things forward. Every day will bring chaos, it never ends, but creating structure gives yourself the stability necessary to crush the day.</p>
<p>What are you going to schedule in each area of your life - your body, being, balance and business? Daily battles will consume hours of your day, but the calendar will get you past the mental B.S. and prevent you from getting bogged down. Make time for your wife and kids so you continue to build deep connections.  Calendaring out helps move your life forward!</p>
<p>Then next week ask yourself: How can I add more? How can I do more? How can I be more? How can I achieve more? How can I impact more? This process will create the clarity that moves all areas of your life forward.</p>
<p><strong>Choose what you want to do and where you want to go. Map out your week and it will truly liberate you.</strong></p>

<p>What are you going to schedule in each area of your life - your body, being, balance and business? Daily battles will consume hours of your day, but the calendar will get you past the mental B.S. and prevent you from getting bogged down. Make time for your wife and kids so you continue to build deep connections.  Calendaring out helps move your life forward!</p>
<p>Then next week ask yourself: How can I add more? How can I do more? How can I be more? How can I achieve more? How can I impact more? This process will create the clarity that moves all areas of your life forward.</p>
<p><strong>Choose what you want to do and where you want to go. Map out your week and it will truly liberate you.</strong></p>

      <title>DailyQ #10: What healthy foods do you recommend daily? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What are the healthiest foods you recommend eating daily?</em> Troy Hoffman dives into his world raised by a father persistently exploring nutrition. Growing up around chiropractors, nutritionists, doctors, and functional medical doctors fostered a love for learning about health.</p>
<p>I've spent my entire life around this. My Dad was sick as a kid, so he became focused on what to eat and when. Despite my knowledge, I crashed around age 35 and had to dive deep to transform my own life.</p>
<p><strong>Every diet to every person is something different.</strong></p>
<p>Get clear! Thorough testing can reveal intolerances and allergies that will help you better understand your body. Look at detox programs so you can slowly re-introduce foods to your system. You may need to cut sugar or dairy from your diet. Cut the processed foods from your life - it destroys our bodies! <strong>Eating things from the earth is the key.</strong></p>
<p>So, where are you going to start? Your diet has to be specific to you.</p>
<p>Test, test, test! You've got to become your best doctor. Get to know your body and how it responds to different foods. Identify all these areas of your life to truly move yourself forward.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #9: What are your greatest failures? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>What are some of your greatest failures and what did you learn from them?</em> Troy Hoffman shares a couple of his failures and credits the success of any business to its people. Choose the people for your life.</p>
<p>The amount of hustle required even as a kid to drum up business was a challenge. Going door to door seemed to produce more than handing out flyers. We learned through the process.</p>
<p><strong>Every business teaches you something.</strong></p>
<p>Thats where we grow, from painful failures. You gain experience from discovery of what works and what doesn't. Through out the years I've made many failed decisions. One of the greatest lessons I learned is vetting properly and pull people in slowly.</p>
<p><strong>Find the right person for the right moment. Everything drives around the people.</strong></p>
<p>Who in your life do you need to add? Who do you need to let go of?</p>

      <title>DailyQ #8: Why is the Core4 so important? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Why is the Core4 so important to do every day?</em> Troy Hoffman declares it's life or death in your body, your mindset, your family, and your business. If you are not growing, everything around you will crash.</p>
<p><strong>It is life or death!</strong></p>
<p>We win by doing simple things every day. We are imperfect people in an imperfect world trying to create a perfect life on this planet. The Core4 is designed to challenge us daily.  Are you getting clear on what you need to move your body forward?</p>
<p>If our body crashes, our energy crashes, then we don't have time to deal with our mental and emotional issues. Then we don't have capacity for our loved ones. <strong>The Core4 matters, because those people matter to you.</strong></p>
<p>When you take care of you body, you can clear your mind. You'll have impactful hours with your wife, husband, or children. When you walk into your business charged, you'll be the most powerful person in the room. Without baggage people feel that love and you're persistence produces great decisions, speed, and efficiency. Taking action on the Core4 moves your life forward.</p>
<p><strong>Where in your body, being, balance or business do you need to take more action to truly walk in power throughout your day?</strong></p>

      <title>DailyQ #7: Why will customers stay and do repeat business with you? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Why will customers stay and do repeat business with you?</em> Troy Hoffman explains while people buy from someone they know or brands they truely trust, but at the smaller stages it's gonna be you.</p>
<p><strong>Customers will buy crappy products from someone they love, instead of buying a superior product from someone they hate.</strong></p>
<p>The person, the energy, the drive, the trust, the relationship. People want to connect and know who is behind the company. So, <strong>be authentically you.</strong> &quot;I care deeply about everybody I come into contact with. I want to connect with everybody.&quot; Whoever you are, let that come out and you'll find your audience. <strong>You have to connect.</strong></p>
<p>Hire people that fit for your industry. Be yourself in person, on the phone, and at conferences because people are tired of those full of crap. Perfection does not exist! Everybody has problems, challenges, mistakes, and pain.</p>
<p><strong>People are tired of heros that don't truly exist.</strong></p>
<p>When you become imperfectly you and connect with your customers, they're going to keep buying from you because you've opened up to each other. People want to buy from people they're connected with. So connect and your customers will stay for a long time.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #6: Why is financial literacy so important? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Why is financial literacy so important?</em> Troy Hoffman encourages mastering mathematics at an early age so you can apply all those concepts to your life.</p>
<p>Mastering basic mathematics, algebra, and stats will serve you your entire life. If you're running a business wrapping your head around budgets, balance sheets, and cash flow statements is imperative.  You have to know the data and make quick strategic decisions.</p>
<p><strong>Everything is about the numbers.</strong></p>
<p>Understanding the tax code and issues in your industry is important. Take the time to start studying something. Don't just the CPA, or the financial advisor, or the attorney. They can provide advice and consultation, but once you are clear, take control of your life. Manifest in ways that produce better results for your life. You are operating in future frames from daily moments.</p>
<p><strong>You are the one who creates a life for yourself.</strong></p>
<p>Challenge yourself today to find one book, absorb the lessons and take action on them.</p>

Clarity in your market, data and industry are essential. There is no formula, but ultimately the decision rest on your shoulders. Every leader must escape to make an informed decision.</p>
<p><strong>&quot;Writing clarifies thought.&quot;</strong> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-delong-066b595/">Scott Delong</a> often preaches this to me, &quot;you have to journal the problem and the solutions.&quot;</p>

<p><strong>Is the story you're telling yourself true?</strong></p>
<p>You are re-training your mind to focus on what is possible for you, your business and your life. Now your subconscious, your mind, and your reticular activating system is focused on finding the solution to get you the result you want.</p>

      <title>DailyQ #3: Should I chase after my passion or stability? -- The DailyQ with Troy Hoffman</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><em>Do I chase after my passion or stability? What is more important?</em> Troy Hoffman encourages listening to the voice inside that pushes us in one direction or the other. Stability should be a choice. Work with people that are passionate, inspiring and growing personally.</p>
<p>&quot;Those that listen to the voice inside of them -- are guided down paths to places they never thought possible.&quot;</p>
<p>Check out Verne Harnish's book, <a href="https://scalingup.com/book/">Scaling Up: Mastering the Rockefeller Habits</a>, where he explains we all have a concept of our 10 year vision, but are only capable of planning in 90 days.</p>
<p>You can only control the outcomes today! Live in the moment you are in right now. <strong>Do the passion, but pay the bills. Go after that vision in your head</strong>. However, you can't truly taste your passion without some sense of stability in life. Where in your life do you need stability - food, water, shelter? Find that balance and whatever you decide, remember to learn, develop your skillsets and extract life lessons.</p>
<p><strong>Now go and live your destiny!</strong></p>
