"I became resilient because I realized that there was no stability. It's an illusion." Today we're joined by Paul Fioravanti, CEO of Qorval Partners. When I sat down with Paul today, I could tell he knew his shit. I got the feeling like he's been working at his craft for a long time and has a deep well of knowledge and life experiences to pull from, and I was curious to know if his demeanor was something he was born with or developed over time. In the first half of the podcast, we cover some of the basics of what Paul does at Qorval. In the second half, we dive into more personal topics on how his view of life, working, opportunities, etc. has changed from the time he was in his 30's until now. Paul has been turning businesses around for over a decade. He will step in as an Interim CEO to solve issues around financials, operations, or sales/marketing. If you're in your mid 20's to mid 30's and you have a drive to do something great with your life and career, but you struggle with the feeling like you need to be constantly doing something to move closer to your goals... don't miss this one. I had a blast doing this and I hope you enjoy listening.

So at some point in time, I became a different person. I became resilient because I realized that. Uh, there was no stability. It's an illusion."

A recent guest explained Warren Buffett's 5/25 Rule to me: You have 5 main goals you're pursuing at any given time, and 25 sub-goals that distract from your ability to accomplish your main 5.I think it's true.

Self-censorship has been on my mind lately. We see the censoring apparatus at work more obviously than ever as some of our favorite podcasters, YouTube channels, Instagram accounts have episodes or videos pulled down, fact check icons show up below their posts, etc. We've seen the censorship around the last election, and with Robert F. Kennedy having multiple episodes of podcasts pulled down just by being a guest, it's very obvious to everyone that your words are being watched in some way. I worry about the impact that has on peoples' willingness to speak their mind and say what they think is true. I know it has an impact on me, not just on my public facing work, but also when I write anything, text, capture my thoughts in a Google Doc or an Evernote. It's not that someone's there over your shoulder looking at every word, it's just that it's all being compiled, and then suddenly and seemingly arbitrarily, you're receiving a notification that your episode or post has been pulled. It starts to build a self-imposed straight jacket on your mind over time, and it's just frustrating. Thanks for checking out the new acoustic EP.

My friends are stupid, and this is proof. I recently asked them for AI artwork prompts that I would put into Neural Frames, a pretty cool AI artwork generator that takes your ideas and turns them into a series of AI-generated artwork frames that blend together to create a constantly-evolving video. Check it out here: https://www.neuralframes.com/ I got prompts from friends, family, and colleagues to see what kind of artwork this would generate, and we got the gambit: - George bush investigating 7-11 - Jimmy Garrapolo as an underground sewer person - A nice Halloween-themed kitchen Interact with us and be a part of the next episode! 👇 📞 Leave us a voicemail on PodInbox: https://podinbox.com/cheineon 📧 Send us an email: https://www.cheineon.com/contact/ 🗣️ Sponsor the show: https://www.cheineon.com/contact/

Self doubt, a lack of belief in myself, and ultimately giving up on goals have been a few common themes in my life until the past year. I started working with Gus Romero at the tail end of 2022 and the lessons he's taught me have been invaluable to pointing my life in the direction I want it to go in. In all honesty, I thought "mindset coaching" was BS before working with Gus. A lot of what we cover stems from Bob Proctor's Thinking Into Results program, which is based on the the concepts in Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich. It's practical advice that's been incredibly valuable to me, and I want to share part of that with you.

I like hearing about conspiracy theories. There's a certain aspect of truth in a lot of them that you won't really find in a conventional way of thinking or through conventional sources. Yes, you have to sift through a lot of bullshit, people telling you that Biden is going to be arrested TOMORROW AT 1047AM!! WE DID IT PATRIOTS!! But the aspect I truly enjoy is that interesting questions get raised about major events that are happening. Things that make you say "huh..." That's why I love talking to Brett. I always leave each conversation convinced I'm right about one thing but having new questions about 10 other things. We dive into: - Why most relationships fail through current dating apps - Why were certain houses in Hawaii untouched during the fire? - What's going on with depopulation? - Is capitalism bad or is it captured? - Why do politicians hate TikTok?

Are you waiting for things to be perfect before you start? The perfect time, perfect situation, perfect plan... the perfect "something" before you can "really give it your all". I know the feeling, and I'm actively working on overcoming it now. Here are some thoughts on how seeking perfection can be a hinderance, how it can be used to avoid working on something important to you, avoid potential criticism or rejection, and the sneaky ways it shows up. Perfection's arguments are convincing, too. We also talk through a few ways you can start to get past this roadblock. We'd love you to join our community and participate in the show.

The War of Art by Stephen Pressfield is a book I consistently come back to read/listen to each year. There's a chapter called "Resistance and Isolation: Parts I and II". Hearing them again registered differently this time since a few things in my life have changed. I've been hard charging on a few separate fronts, moving several projects forward toward their finish lines, and a few lines got me thinking about this desire to get approval. The "need" for approval can strike before you start a project, in the middle, or before the finish line. My friend calls it "looking for a cosigner". Let's talk through what this means, what the downsides are, the mental traps you'll find yourself in, and some ways you can use goal setting to overcome this problem.

Writing is definitely a form of therapy. When I stay consistent with writing, I see huge benefits: Mental clarity, less fog Identify patterns of thoughts See aspects of goals I'm going after Less hopelessness Helps to repeat positive thoughts and reinforce good habits Builds the muscle of consistency Helps with sleep It helps me get the thoughts out of my head and onto the page. This puts some distance between my thoughts and my self-image, which ultimately helps process these thoughts, not run away from them or let them control me. Also, there's a bit about a piss bath in here...

I quit my job a few years ago to start my own business, and lately, a few friends have reached out to me about doing this or some version of it. Ultimately that business failed. But I learned about myself, what my motivations are, how the allure of "freedom" can actually be a trap. I'm also seeing some of the ways my new 9-5 job can provide stability as I pursue this podcast, music, and other goals I have. If you're thinking about quitting your job to start your own business, give this a listen... it might help steer you in the right direction, or at least avoid the same mistakes I made.
