Community in 2022

To The Momentum Tribe,

First, thank you for trusting that I will provide value to you. It feels like the right time to intentionally pour into this authentic community, and I promise to take my commitment to you and this initiative seriously.

One of the problems with thought leadership and Coaching right now is,
that it’s too oriented toward past achievements. While that can serve as a great foundation, few talk about what they are building and working on now.  I know of all the Coaches and Mentors that I follow, I get the most from the ones that share their ongoing work.  Their successes.  Their struggles… and how that can be applied to our lives and business.    

​So, if you can’t get enough of business, have big goals in mind, are particularly passionate about all things entrepreneurial, have a mild obsession with exotic cars and off-roading, really enjoy travel and exploration, and generally live life with endless desire to be, do and have more—then we will get along great!

So what are we going to do?

I’m going to send updates to those on the MOMENTUM INSIDER about what I’m working on, learning about, and needing help with. I will also be paying very close attention to those on list and what they're  doing so I can make connections and share some of their projects and insights with the community.

Bottom line, I want 2022 to be the most successful and fulfilling year of our lives.

That’s all for now!

​Spencer

The Risk-Reward Reality: Why Playing Small Limits Your Business's Potential

 Good morning! As we crank up into a fresh week, let's tackle a basic truth about growth and achievement in business: low risk means low reward. It's tempting to play it safe, to stick to what's comfortable and familiar. The allure of minimizing potential downsides is strong. But the reality is, significant breakthroughs and substantial rewards rarely come without stepping outside your comfort zone and embracing a degree of risk. Think about the biggest leaps forward in business history. They weren't achieved by treading the well-worn path. They came from entrepreneurs and companies willing to challenge the status quo, invest in innovative ideas, and navigate uncertain territory. That "low risk" approach might manifest in your business as:  * Avoiding new marketing channels: Sticking only to what you know, even if it's plateauing.  * Hesitating to invest in growth: Being reluctant to spend on scaling, new hires, or product development.  * Staying within yo...

The Unfinished Game: Why Today's Score Isn't the Final Tally

Spencer here again with another daily dose, from Virginia Beach, VA. The day's wins might feel good. The sting of a setback might linger. But here's a quiet truth worth holding onto: Just because you are winning doesn't necessarily mean you have won. And just because you might be losing, doesn't mean you have completely lost. Today's tally is just that: today's. The game isn't over. The story continues. We get seduced by the immediate feedback loop. A big sale? We're on top. A lost client? We're doomed. But these are often just blips on a longer radar. Winning today can breed complacency. A belief that the momentum is automatic, that the hard work is done. But the market shifts. Competitors adapt. Complacency is the slow leak that sinks even the most buoyant ship. And losing today? It can feel like the end. The final curtain. But often, it's just a data point. A course correction. A chance to learn, to pivot, to come back stronger. The greatest c...

Beyond the Talk: How Your Business Results Expose Your True Standards

As we get into the rhythm of the week, let's focus on a truth that often gets overshadowed by what we say: Results reveal more about your standards than your rhetoric. It's easy to talk a big game. To articulate grand visions, promise exceptional quality, and declare unwavering commitment. Rhetoric – the art of persuasive speaking or writing – can be powerful in setting intentions and inspiring others. But ultimately, it's the tangible outcomes, the actual results your business produces, that truly expose the standards you operate by. Think about it: If you claim to prioritize customer satisfaction, what do your customer retention rates and feedback scores reveal? If you talk about quality products or services, what do your defect rates and customer complaints indicate? If you preach efficiency and innovation, what do your profit margins and the speed of your adaptation show? Your results are the unvarnished truth. They cut through the aspirational language and reveal t...
