Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes 7 Success Shifts That Actually Work (Part 1) September 23, 2025 | Episode - 5187 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Scott's back with part two of his success mindset series, and he's fired up about it! After sharing 14 mindset shifts yesterday, he's diving into seven more game-changers that'll help you get what you want. From facing your passion to letting go of control, Scott breaks down practical ways to shift your thinking. He talks about doing things "the Scott way" (which really means your way), why good enough beats perfectionism, and how the people around you are shaping who you become. This isn't Reddit-worthy advice—it's real-world stuff that works. Featured Story Scott shares his approach to decision-making by asking himself, "How would Scott do it?" It's not about ego—it's about trusting the way you were born to handle things. He talks about how God gave him a specific way of doing things, even if he started out "stupid" and had to figure it out over time. The key insight? When you trust your natural approach instead of copying what others say you should do, you tap into something authentic and powerful. Scott's motorcycle trip example shows how letting go of control and letting others lead can actually work better than trying to be out front all the time. Important Points Good enough is actually good enough for most things, and when executed consistently, it becomes perfect over time through the compounding effect. Multitasking splits your energy and delays success—focus your one mind on one thing, or better yet, see everything through the lens of your core values. You are who you hang out with due to the proximity effect, which influences your faith, money, attitude, and everything else in your life. Memorable Quotes "The confounding effect over time of being good enough and not reinventing the wheel every single day just makes perfect out of good enough." "You are so much more interesting than anything on social media. You are so much more exciting." "I think you are fighting some influential warfare today, and the more you understand that and realize that, the more you begin to really take control." Scott's Three-Step Approach Face your passion and ask yourself how you would naturally handle each situation that comes up, trusting your God-given way of doing things. Practice the good enough approach by focusing on one thing at a time and letting consistency create perfection over time. Evaluate your proximity circle and say no to anything that doesn't directly support your goals, values, and vision for your life.
