Tip of the Day batch record when the momentum strikes, batch record. That's what we'll talk about a little bit on this episode. But really what I want to talk about is challenges on the front end of creating some challenges. So very excited about that. But also batch recording. So, watch that glorious intro, I believe it's running in about three to four seconds on YouTube and about 20 to 30 seconds on podcast land. But enjoy the table rush talk show. I'll be right back. Subscribe, Like follow.

And I'm back. Batch record. Anybody savvy enough to see the episode right before this? We'll probably see that, hey, wait a minute. Your hair's the same. You're on the you're still on the uphill part of the walk. You know, when I like to keep my episodes between eight and 15 minutes. And I think growth for me, and 2022. As I record this, we're in February. growth for me is going to be getting less than eight minute episodes. Can I do a potent five or seven minute episode?

Mischa Zvegintzov 

Real quick enough, you can see the ridiculous view. But I live in a magical part of the magical part of the world. Lots of magical parts of the world. I do believe this too. No matter where you go. There you are. So ultimately, if where you live, if your happiness is dependent on that. You may never be happy. I just happen to have landed. Encinitas, California. Cute little cottage. I'd say beach college but I don't want to give the impression that I'm on the beach. I can walk to the beach takes me five, seven minutes to Swamis beach. And I'm on the slope of a hill so I get some cool ocean breezes, breezes. And some, you know, little ocean view here and there. Not not not Whitewater. But yes, the ocean. So it's cool, whatever. It's quiet. It's about as quiet as it can be in a noisy part of Encinitas. Thanks for listening to that.

I think what's fun about that is that I back I was exiting the tech industry in 2001. And I'd had a good little run tech sales I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area. And that industry was collapsing. It's doing everything I could to stay in it. But the universe was like you don't get to stay in this industry. So I was reading what color is your parachute? I believe is what it's called. It's like find your next job or find your next career book. But what it had you do was a lot of visualizations, visualizations of where you wanted to live. What's your house look like? What's your neighborhood look like? You know, what's the weather like? All these things? Okay. And this is really funny. It's really funny telling you this story as well. Because I did that I took it very seriously the What color is your parachute if you talk to my wife at the time everything that I was the work I was doing was manifesting i I shit you not sorry I just for any parents out there that has their kids watching this or their their teenagers whatever I apologize for this relatively benign that was yes, so I I get a job coming up out of that in the home loan business and all my skill set comes together this is tail end to 2021 and I'm fighting it actually I'm doing all this work all this you know deep soul searching stuff as recommended by what color's your parachute? And of course I end up in the job of my dreams at the time, which I've since now pivoted out of sugar cane the job of my dreams, but I had to get 15 year run.

Mischa Zvegintzov 

Sorry, I end up today The purpose of this whole story is in the killer little beach house in the neighborhood walking walkable tents and walking as I visualized in that book and how crazy is that? How crazy is that? So I love meditation I love visualization I love you know trying to talk to that source that source that higher power that creative intelligence God, people have all sorts of

Mischa Zvegintzov 

I'm back, I had to hit stop. What's the beginning of the video, it's talking about batch recording and challenging and challenges. Fast forward, currently, and literally in the house of my dreams, which is not going to be the house of many other people's dreams. Tiny, sold 1949. But I literally have landed in what is perfect for my ideal. What a gift that is.

Mischa Zvegintzov 

So challenges, I did a summit awesome. Challenge Challenge is a five day. Next on the list, create a challenge, your creative challenge to bring somebody into your ecosystem of what you have to offer, can do it free or paid. But you create a three day five days seven day some people do longer day challenges. But what you're trying to do is create micro wins. To give help people end up with a result at the end. And then you can make an offer at the end of the challenge. So what's an example I did this, I have this friend and she created a tic tock challenge. It's awesome. Cheryl Spencer, you can find her on Facebook, Cheryl a Spencer, you can look her up on the TIC tock as well. What's it like? So, gosh, I wish I could remember what I'll drop the link in the show notes. Subscribe, and look in the show notes. I'll have Cheryl's handle in there.

Mischa Zvegintzov 

But Oh, one last thing I met on visualizing. This is the thing about visualizing like I ended up in the house. But how I got there. I could not have predicted that at all. Did the visualization. How I ended up there? Oh my gosh, the set of circumstances. Crazy.

Mischa Zvegintzov 

Anyhow, back to Cheryl Spencer's tic toc challenge. So at the her goal with her tic tock challenge is to have somebody take their brand new tic tock account and get it to oopsie get it to 1000 followers, you start a non business, tic tock account, by the way and non business account, get to 1000 followers. And then when you have 1000 followers, you can put your links in there and things like that. And she's got this great model of creating content. So that's her challenge. It's a five day challenge. Zero to 1000. And she gets you on path for that. Awesome challenge. Check it out. I'll have that link in the show notes as well. But this 111 woman, friend of mine in the TCC X actually, her name's escaping me. Of course, damn it, it's one of those days. If you watch the Lisa Randall episode, though, it's no big deal. forgetfulness, we always have forgetting forgetfulness, no matter how old we are, check out our interview Lisa Randall. But that as we get older, we attach a story to it. And that story, if it gets heavy enough, it creates fear in us. And then we have serotonin release, which actually degrades hip hippopotamus know the hypothalamus gland or something, whatever it is, that gland in your brain. So it can be a self fulfilling prophecy. You're getting older and forgetting stuff. Don't trip on it. You're always forgetting stuff you always have. It's just when you were 30. You could laugh at off. Or when you were 20. You could laugh it off.

Mischa Zvegintzov 

But my friend, the menopause lady. I'll have her link in the show notes as well. She followed as following Cheryl's method. Exactly. And is already at she went from zero to 11,000 followers, one of her tiktoks got like 450,000 views. Like it's crazy. She's done maybe eight episodes. She was crazy. She literally hit that 1000 followers in that five days. I mean, I don't know I'm stubborn, and so doing my own thing. So at some point, I'll follow her method. But right now I'm like, I'm following my stubborn method. I'm just trying to repurpose my, my interview clips and get him out on the social media to create awareness. It's all I'm doing repurposing content. So the challenge. So my challenge is going to be more along the lines of, you know, five day podcast. Challenge. 

Mischa Zvegintzov 

Judas Priest. Love the old Judas Priest. Skateboard Park. Great neighborhood. Yeah, five day, and I'm still mulling it over, I'm just about to dive into this Pedro de owes challenge. He's got a challenge, create a challenge course, perhaps I'll throw that link in there as well. But the challenge is awesome, it's a great way to generate leads, build your email list. Get people in your ecosystem for free. They're joining your email list, so you can email them and sell them stuff later. As well as, as you get your challenges going. Free challenge you can sell them a service coming out of the challenge. So me for example, let's say hi to at the end of the five days, you'll have the name of your podcast, you'll have the theme of your podcast, you'll have the art together, you'll have your intro and outro put together, just loose framework might be a little different. But at the end of the five days, you'll have all the pieces together so that you can then go to one of the you know, one of the distributors and create what's called your RSS feed. Now, at the end of the challenge, I'm thinking, I'll have the RSS feed. So I'll have the list of everything you need to do to get your podcast live. And it'll be free. Make it to the end, you're going to get this here's everything you need to do to put those pieces of the puzzle together. And people still run stop signs. Skelly. My little when my boys were a little scary. Anyway. Hey, if you're new, welcome to the table rush talk show. Welcome to The Table rush. Talk Show. How fun is this? What I could do is offer at the end to help you get your show live and charge a fee for that. And perhaps coach you moving forward. So that is an idea of a challenge. Probably realistically going to do something like that it's coming your way.
