Who Works Harder on the Family Business: You or Your Spouse?

By Steve Siebold

If you’re in business with your spouse, which one of you is the driving force of the company? Do you have set schedules or do you work at your leisure? Is one spouse clearly contributing more, or are your efforts equal? This can be a bone of contention for couples that eventually bleeds into the relationship. Some couples we’ve interviewed seem to navigate this issue with ease, while others struggle and fight for time and effort equality. If you’re considering getting into business with your spouse/significant other, this is an area that should be discussed and agreed upon long before you

By Steve Siebold

After dealing with tens of thousands of associates in both of these companies over the past 20 years as an author/speaker, I’ve formed some strong opinions. In the interest of full disclosure, from 2018 to 2022, I engaged in a spare time experiment with World Financial Group as an associate after writing the only official book on the company, UNAUTHORIZED: The Truth about World Financial Group. I was always curious to see what it would be like in the inside of the opportunity after being a vendor to them for so many years. I have never been an associate with Primerica,

Are You Intimidated?

By Steve Siebold

Many entrepreneurs and salespeople are relegated to modest levels of success due to feelings of intimidation. They want to think big, but often revert back to past programs rooted in survival. Dr. Abraham Maslow, the father of Humanistic Psychology, lectured and wrote about this during the 1950s and 60s, yet not much has changed among the masses when it comes to limiting beliefs.

Mental Toughness and Performing Under Pressure

By Steve Siebold

Performing under pressure requires mental toughness, in other words, emotional control. This is one of the most misunderstood concepts in psychological performance training. Some people believe that mental toughness is something with which we are born. Not true. Mental toughness is something we learn. It requires a foundational understanding of what pressure is, and how to reduce or eliminate it. Once you know what you’re dealing with, you can adjust your thinking to instantly reduce the pressure you’re experiencing. In this episode of the Mental Toughness Podcast, I explore the gritty details of how to perform under pressure. #mentaltoughness #personaldevelopment

Mental Toughness on Farming and Hunting Prospects

By Steve Siebold

Many entrepreneurs and salespeople prefer farming over hunting business. This is is more about mindest than strategy, and in today’s environment, it’s limiting. This is why being mentally tough is critical to your success. The more flooded the field, the more hunting must be employed. You must know your avatar and target it relentlessly before your competition does. This aggressive personal point of view has created more millionaires in the first world than any other. The message is, ‘get tough or get left behind.’ And if you can’t find that mental toughness within you, you’ll need to work for someone who

By Steve Siebold

Fighting fair with your spouse/business partner is critical for your long-term success in your business and relationship. After being married and in business together for 38 years, we’ve made every stupid mistake a couple can make. The secret, if there is one, is being 100% committed to making it work—whatever it takes.

Critical vs. Emotional Thinking on the Mental Toughness Podcast

By Steve Siebold

One of the key skills we’ve been teaching at Mental Toughness University for 25 years is critical thinking. Since human beings are emotional creatures, critical thinking doesn’t come naturally. Critical thinking is emotion-less thinking, where decisions and actions are based on data, evidence and proof. And as simple as it seems, it’s not easy if you’re used to thinking emotionally. In this episode we dissect the thinking and behavior of former President Donald Trump, Hollywood legend Will Smith, and the emotionally charged American political landscape. As well as the former mask mandates on the airlines. Watch this short episode and I’ll

By Steve Siebold

No views Feb 11, 2023 PALM SPRINGSIn this interview we discuss the differences in thinking between the socioeconomic middle class and world class, direct from my book, How Rich People Think, which has now sold over 500,000 copies and published in 7 languages.
