sometimes just sitting there and like being an ear is definitely way more important than the solution

that you have because people are going through life alone a lot of the time you know a lot of men

a lot of women they're going through a lot of things and then it's the flooding of the house for plumbing.

It's the electrical not working.

It's the garage door not working whenever they were going to a hospice appointment for their parents.

Welcome to the Waste No Day podcast, a podcast specifically for and about the home services industry as it relates to

plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and electrical. More than a podcast, Waste No Day is a credo,

a determination, a mindset. It is a never-ending discipline. It is a refuse to lose pursuit. It is a

wake-up call every morning to waste no day.

Now here's your host, Brian Burton and Nate Minnick.

Hey, welcome to another episode of the Waste No Day podcast. Your host, Nate and Brian, hanging out with you again. Looking forward to another great show. This time, we are bringing it on none other than Jonathan Phillips. He is a senior instructor at A1 Garage Door, and we are looking forward to this conversation. We're going to be talking about the idea of being liked or trying

to be liked and how the impact of that desire could potentially be affecting your presentation

and relationship in the home. It's going to be an insightful conversation. Jonathan is an excellent

trainer and has just a great way of bringing about content and introspective way of

dealing with these types of questions, which really we are all probably asking whether we think so

or not. So looking forward to that conversation. Before we get to that, we're going to kick it off

with a little bit of an introduction. And as always, time to start it off with a quote from Brian.

You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than in two years

of trying to get other people interested in you. Dale Carnegie. Yeah. It does speak to the heart of many humans, though, doesn't it?

Where we are all looking for people to be interested in us and how that validation exactly is

played out in so many ways. And boy, when somebody takes interest in you, don't you just kind of warm up to them

a little bit easier, a little bit faster? Right? Yeah, it's like CS Lewis said, I'm going to butcher it.
