概要

 Back in the 1950s, a guy named Earl Nightingale recorded something for his sales team that became the first gold record for spoken word. It was called "The Strangest Secret," and it changed everything about personal development. I'm taking you back in time today to share those classic lessons because they still work. Maybe even better now than they did 70 years ago. I started my career as a baby DJ clipping Earl's cassette tapes into three-minute segments at the Motivation Station in Palm Beach. That's my pedigree. And today, I'm breaking down the seven principles that inspired me to create this show. Featured Story Picture this: 1980s Palm Beach, Florida. I'm working at the Motivation Station as a baby DJ, and my entire job is chopping up Earl Nightingale's cassette tapes into three-minute segments and playing them all day long. That's where this whole thing started for me. Earl had done 5,000 individual radio shows, and I remember thinking, "I think I can do that." Now we're at episode 5,270-something. Kind of done that. Earl's original program wasn't even meant for mass consumption. He recorded it to keep his salespeople motivated while he was out of town. A secretary heard it, gave it to a radio station, and boom—gold record. Sometimes the best things happen when you're just trying to solve a simple problem. Important Points You become what you think about, so if you're thinking about nothing, Scott Logic says you're becoming nothing. Paying the price is bigger than you think—relationships hurt, businesses are harder, degrees are tougher than imagined. Most people don't have clearly defined goals despite having every possible resource for goal-setting at their fingertips. Memorable Quotes "If you're trying to get away from something, you're thinking about it, which makes you become it even more." "I can walk into the devil's den and say, you ain't going to get me, dude. I know who you are." "What you want more than anything else requires doing more than anybody else will do to get it." Scott's Three-Step Approach Control your thoughts by being careful about influences—even turning on the radio can drop something in your mind unprepared. Cut away the limitations in your mind, knowing it might take 20 years to happen "in an instant." Act promptly when the path is clear instead of waiting for Monday or perfect conditions to start moving forward.
