Mid-Year Review: Time to Assess, Adjust, and Accelerate

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another episode of Spencer Uncensored. This is episode 76, and I'm thrilled to have you here, whether you're joining us live in the Unshakeable Secrets group for business leaders or catching this later on our YouTube Channel. Your presence means a lot, and I appreciate you being here.

Tonight, I've got a few updates to share before we dive into some crucial conversations that might be exactly what you need to hear right now.
Major Updates and AnnouncementsFirst, let's talk about the big projects I'm working on:

  1. Momentum and Mastery Book: The book is coming together beautifully. We have 53 people currently reviewing it, and the feedback has been incredibly valuable. Special thanks to my Coach, Micheal Burt, for writing the forward. If you don't know him, look him up—he's spoken at 10X and worked with top names like Rory Vaden, Grant Cardone, and Renee Rodriguez. We're aiming for an official digital release by the end of July, and a big launch at the Unshakeable Weekend Event on August 23rd.
  2. Unshakeable Weekend Event: Speaking of the event, it's set for August 23-25 in the Midlands of South Carolina. We’ve secured a great venue and room blocks to keep costs down. This event will be the first of many across the country, coinciding with the book launch.
  3. Web Class and 30-Day Momentum Launch Program: We’re also developing a web class that leads into a 30-day Momentum Launch Program. This program is a primer for the Unshakeable Weekend Event and focuses on the Drift to Drive framework, ensuring you’re ready to make significant progress.

The Power of Conscious Living Now, let’s get into the heart of tonight’s discussion. We often live on autopilot, with both positive and negative behaviors taking over unconsciously. For example, I've been consistently getting up early and walking for almost 90 days. It's become such a habit that my body automatically wants to do it, even if I miss a day.

This automatic behavior shows how we can program ourselves positively. However, many of us lean naturally towards either a momentum framework (always in action but often burned out) or a mastery framework (focused on getting things right but sometimes stuck in our heads).

Identifying Your Framework
  • Momentum-Minded: If you’re always taking action but feel frustrated or burned out, you might need more mastery. This means incorporating a mindset and mechanics framework into your routine.
  • Mastery-Minded: If you’re focused on getting everything right but struggle to take action, you need more momentum. This involves diving into what moves you and taking decisive actions.

Mid-Year Review: Facts and Feelings. As we near the end of June, it's a perfect time for a mid-year review. Look at your past results objectively—they are just facts. Focus on your future with emotion and clarity. What do you want to achieve by the end of the year? Clarify your commitments, determine your priorities, and ensure you have a clear purpose.

Final Thoughts. Business owners can't afford to shoot in the dark. By understanding whether you need more momentum or mastery, you can take targeted actions to improve your business and life. Take this weekend to review your progress and plan your path forward.

​Thank you for joining me on this journey. Keep well, keep moving forward, and remember, when you're in your head, you're dead. Let's get into our hearts and make things happen.

The Firewall

  The world is a machine. A vast, efficient, relentless machine focused on two things: speed and automation. If your job, your skill, or your output can be described by a predictable set of instructions, the machine will eventually learn to do it faster, cheaper, and without complaint. This is not a threat. It is a reality. It is the new baseline. So, where do you stand? Are you building your house on sand, relying on tasks that are easily copied? Or are you building a firewall? The firewall is the part of you the machine cannot touch. It's the unique combination of judgment, empathy, creativity, and the courage to make a non-obvious choice. This week is a choice. You can perform the necessary, replaceable tasks. Or you can invest in your firewall. The question isn’t about job security. It’s about value creation. What is the one thing you can learn, practice, or build this week that will make you so valuable, no one else can do your job five years from now? It's the dif...

The Multiplier

The clock runs. The hour passes. The time is spent. Most of the world gets paid for the passing of that time. It's a comfortable contract. An agreement of safety. Trade one hour of life for an agreed-upon unit of currency. The problem with this contract is that it caps your potential. It rewards presence, not performance. It celebrates effort, not outcome. But the economy of impact is different. No one pays the painter for the hours she spent cleaning the brushes. They pay her for the masterpiece. No one pays the entrepreneur for the hours he spent staring at the ceiling. They pay him for the breakthrough idea. They pay for the result . The moment you accept this truth, your relationship with the clock fundamentally changes. You stop asking, "How long will this take?" You start asking the only question that matters: What can I do with this time that will yield the single greatest result this week? This is the question of leverage. It's the search for the acti...

The Hidden Quarter

The calendar says "Holidays." The world outside begins to slow, to pause, to look inward. Presents, parties, reflection. For many, this period is a collective exhale. A shared agreement to take the foot off the gas. To coast. Your competition is doing it. They're already mentally checked out, planning their breaks, anticipating the collective slowdown. And that, precisely, is the point. Because while they are distracted by eggnog and holiday stress, an invisible, unfair quarter opens up. This isn't Q4. This is the Hidden Quarter . This isn't the time to rest on your laurels. It's the time to build your launchpad. This is the moment to install the system, master the process, or build the lever that your distracted competitors won't even think about until mid-January. What is the one high-leverage system or process you can dedicate yourself to installing and mastering in the next 30 days that will guarantee you start January at an undeniable 5x speed? It...
