644. Replay - No Days Off Review & Questions to Ask Yourself

Every business is a people business. And in the people business, being likeable isn’t optional, it’s a competitive advantage. In today’s episode, I’m breaking down why likability matters and how to intentionally grow it. Inspired by an interview with Jennifer Hyman, CEO of Rent the Runway, we’ll unpack her two-word formula for success: be likeable. From John Maxwell’s insights on influence to practical tactics like mastering first impressions, sharpening your listening skills, checking your body language, and making others feel important, I’ll walk you through the habits that turn likability into leadership and trust. The challenge is simple: where do you need to improve your likability, and how will it elevate your business and your life? -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

On today’s episode of No Days Off, we’re diving into a mindset that can change the trajectory of your life: the Possible Mindset. This concept was introduced to me by my friend Colin O’Brady, world record holding endurance athlete, mountaineer, and the first person to cross Antarctica solo and unsupported. Colin has lived through setbacks most of us can’t imagine, from nearly losing his life in a fire to clawing his way back to become a champion triathlete and record setter on some of the harshest terrain on Earth. Colin’s idea of the Possible Mindset is simple but powerful: focus on what is possible, not what isn’t. He breaks it into three pillars: clarity of purpose, belief in yourself, and relentless action. When you know your “why,” when you truly believe in your ability to win, and when you take consistent steps forward, no matter how small, you create momentum. And momentum changes everything. In this episode, I’ll share what I’ve learned from Colin and how I’ve applied this thinking in my own life and business. More importantly, I’ll challenge you to look at the areas in your life where you’re telling yourself something isn’t possible. Is that story real, or is it just the voice of doubt? Your focusing question today: Where do you need a Possible Mindset right now? -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

No Days Off isn’t about working 24/7, it’s about refusing to take a day off from getting better. In this episode, Brian pulls back the curtain on how the movement started, why it’s built on the “common denominator of success,” and how you can apply it across every area of life. From relationships and health to wealth, business, and spirituality, he shares the simple daily questions that fuel progress. Whether you’ve been with us since episode one or you’re just joining the journey, this is your reminder, and your roadmap, for what No Days Off really means.  -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

Brian Gubernick dives into an unconventional strategy for business success: using The Five Love Languages to build trust, rapport, and ultimately, stronger client relationships. Inspired by Dr. Gary Chapman's work, Brian breaks down how understanding these languages—Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, and Physical Touch—can be applied beyond personal relationships to enhance business interactions.   Learn how identifying and applying these love languages with clients and prospects can transform communication and loyalty. From using words of praise to tailoring support based on client preferences, Brian explains practical ways to interpret subtle cues and adjust your approach for meaningful connections that last.  -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

Stability isn’t a political talking point, it’s a leadership principle. At the All In Summit in LA, I heard a line that stopped me in my tracks: “If the United States wants stability in the world, it must first be stable at home.” That truth doesn’t just apply to nations. It applies to you as a leader. If you’re chaotic, reactive, or inconsistent, your business will reflect that. But if you’re steady, grounded, and disciplined, your team will follow suit. In this episode, I break down eight tactical ways to build stability at your core; anchoring in daily routines, cleaning up your finances, controlling your inputs, prioritizing health, repairing relationships, practicing emotional regulation, clarifying priorities, and debriefing quickly. The big idea? You’re the thermostat, not the thermometer. You set the temperature. If you want a steady company, it starts with a steady leader. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

Ever wonder what’s fueling the ideas, decisions, and strategies I’m running with right now? In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the exact inputs shaping my year - the books I’m rereading, the podcasts I’m hooked on, the tools I’m experimenting with, and the questions sitting on my whiteboard. You’ll hear why I keep going back to Jesse Itzler’s Living with a SEAL, Tim Ferriss’s Tools of Titans, and Michael Lewis’s Going Infinite. I’ll share the podcasts that challenge my thinking, the frameworks I’m using to sharpen my execution, and even the simple daily habits that reset my mindset. More importantly, I’ll walk you through the questions I’m wrestling with: Am I delivering unreasonable hospitality? Am I saying yes to the right things? Do I need to make new investments in my own health and recovery? Think of this episode as my current playbook. Take one of these books, podcasts, tools, or questions and run with it. Because the truth is, the inputs you choose are shaping your outputs, and if you’re intentional with what you consume, you’ll change what you create. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

Stress isn’t going anywhere. You can’t buy it off, out-hustle it, or schedule it away. But here’s the truth: while some people break under stress, others sharpen. Same pressure, different outcome. Back in the late 1970s, psychologist Suzanne Kobasa studied why, and she discovered it wasn’t genetics, IQ, or luck. It was mindset. She called it hardiness, a way of viewing stress as fuel instead of fire. And it came down to three attitudes: Commitment. Control. Challenge. In today’s episode, I break down Kobasa’s three C’s and give you practical ways to build hardiness into your life. You’ll learn how to stay engaged when things get messy, how to separate what’s in your control from what’s not, and how to flip stress into a training ground instead of a threat. Because here’s the reality: stress isn’t your enemy. With the right reps, it becomes your edge. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

We’ve all heard the phrase: how you do anything is how you do everything. It’s been tossed around in locker rooms, boardrooms, and leadership meetings so often that it risks becoming just another motivational bumper sticker. But this principle runs deeper than most people realize, it’s a blueprint for identity. In this episode, Brian breaks down the true meaning behind the phrase, tracing its roots from the Stoics to Navy SEALs to Joe DiMaggio, and then shows how it plays out in real life. Whether it’s sloppy CRM notes, showing up late to small meetings, or cutting corners on a workout, the way you treat the “little things” is training your habits for the moments that matter most. Brian shares how to model this standard for your team, instill it in your kids, and apply it to your own life so that your character shows up everywhere, not just when you think it counts. Because the truth is, you don’t rise to the occasion, you fall to the level of your habits. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

Most people think peak performance means shutting emotions down. Wrong move. You don’t need to eliminate emotions, you need to regulate them.  In this episode, Brian Gubernick breaks down a three-step framework from Dr. Becky Kennedy (popularized on Shane Parrish’s Knowledge Project) that puts you back in control under pressure. The AVP model: Acknowledge, Validate, Permit, isn’t soft. It’s a control system for your nervous system. Whether you’re leading a team, coaching a kid, or talking yourself through a high-stakes moment, this framework helps you calm the noise, choose clarity over chaos, and respond instead of react. Brian shares practical scripts you can steal for leadership, self-talk, and family life. Plus, the biggest mistakes people make with emotional regulation (and how to avoid them). -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.

Am I on the right wealth path? That’s the question I get from entrepreneurs, investors, and high performers all the time. The truth is, no one can answer that for you in a single conversation. But what I can give you is a framework. In this episode, I walk you through a nine-question wealth quiz that will instantly show you where you stand. It’s not theory, it’s a scoreboard you can use today. Do you know your net worth? Are you saving enough? Do you have income streams that compound? The way you answer will reveal whether you’re playing the wealth game with intention, or drifting without a plan. We’ll also cover the three undeniable signs you’re on track: your net worth is growing, you’re balanced between offense and defense, and you’re consistent. If you’ve got those, you’re building momentum. If not, I’ll challenge you to pick one “no” answer and flip it to a “yes” in the next 90 days. Wealth isn’t about perfection. It’s about progress, discipline, and momentum. Take the quiz seriously, create accountability, and stop wondering if you’re on the right track, you’ll know. -- Text NDO to 59559 to subscribe to our daily texts + get a link to the newest episode.
