You know - those expired relationships you're still maintaining, that job you should have left two years ago, those meetings that should have ended 37 minutes ago but didn't. If you've been carrying around things that ran their course years ago, maintaining friendships out of guilt, or lying awake thinking about conversations you'll never have, this one's for you. I'll show you why your brain literally can't let go of unfinished business, why the way you end things is the only part people remember, and the exact five-sentence formula for ending anything with grace instead of ghosting like a coward. ➡️ Connect With Me https://instagram.com/scottdclary / https://twitter.com/scottdclary

She reveals why time—not money—is the ultimate measure of wealth and how the way we spend it determines the health of our closest relationships.

By always putting the client’s best interest first, deeply understanding their needs, and reframing your role as a life-changing partner, businesses can create unshakable loyalty and rise above the competition. Jay explains how to challenge customer perceptions in a way that elevates both your brand and their outcomes, replacing the short-term mindset of selling with the long-term mission of transforming lives. Through vivid examples, including a Mexican homebuilder whose sales team learned to see themselves as life-changers rather than product pushers, Jay shows that true market leadership comes not from louder marketing or bigger budgets, but from becoming the only viable choice in your customer’s mind.   ➡️ Show Links https://successstorypodcast.com   YouTube: https://youtu.be/u9ZhCzu6PD0  Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jay-abraham-strategy-performance-expert-the-marketing/id1484783544  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/75d4OC1uwzlme9MOSe4WZh    ➡️ Watch the Podcast on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/scottdclary

He shares his approach to raising financially confident kids by removing distractions, taking full responsibility for their education, and introducing them to work and investing early on. Grant emphasizes the need to unlearn limiting beliefs about money, especially those inherited from risk-averse parents, and instead adopt a wealth-focused mentality that prioritizes income, assets, and long-term prosperity. He explains how most people have unknowingly given up on becoming wealthy because they've been programmed to believe it’s unattainable, and how choosing discomfort over comfort is the only path to true financial freedom and generational change. ➡️ Show Linkshttps://successstorypodcast.com  YouTube: https://youtu.be/yN8lVm9mivo   Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/grant-cardone-billionaire-real-estate-mogul-how-to/id1484783544 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7617LSttQxEFfMIdBpZKs8  ➡️ Watch the Podcast on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/c/scottdclary  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

He explains why mental and social engagement, not comfort or routine, protects long-term brain health, citing studies showing how cognitively active people maintain sharpness despite physical signs of degeneration. Eagleman also introduces the idea of “Ulysses contracts”—clever psychological tricks to help us resist short-term temptations by making decisions in advance when we’re thinking clearly. ➡️ Show Linkshttps://successstorypodcast.com  YouTube: https://youtu.be/SgxxAd-hhHA Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/david-eagleman-brain-expert-entrepreneur-the-science/id1484783544 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/72g6g48kiKPRWTTc7AFCoC  ➡️ Watch the Podcast on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/c/scottdclary See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
