Play the Long Game with Scott Wozniak

One of the most practical things I've learned from spending time with billionaires and common folk alike is this: treat rock stars like regular people and regular people like rock stars. We all carry two deep desires: to be special, and to belong. And most of the time, famous people are starved to just feel normal and connected, while "regular" people are starved to feel seen and celebrated. I'll get tactical on how this actually plays out. The words you use, the questions you ask, and even the facial expressions you give can make a massive difference. Getting this right has opened massive doors for me, and it's a reward in and of itself to know that you're helping people feel truly "seen." I think these strategies could transform the way you approach your interactions in life, too. --- P.S.: If you like this podcast, you'll probably enjoy seeing Scott present live.

This episode marks the beginning of Season 2 of Play the Long Game. I took close to nine months off...kids launching to college, new Swoz programs going public, and a speakers bureau build-out. Life got very full. But the break also taught me something I keep having to relearn: I am not a machine, and seasons of rest aren't weakness. From farming to our own bodies, rest is naturally built into how everything actually works. In this episode, I'll share more insight into how "seasonal thinking" could be a gamechanger in your life (I know it was for me). Also, Season 2 will lean harder into mini-series angle. And I'm adding a seventh engine to the list: physical health. I'm sharing what I'm learning in real time as I try to build an epic life without burning it all down in the process. Let's build an awesome life together! --- P.S.: If you like this podcast, you'll probably enjoy seeing Scott present live.

I'm about to show my super nerd card here. This isn't just any Doctor Who spinoff. It's written by the actress who actually played River Song in the series, and she narrates the audiobook herself. Think 1939 private eye detective story, except the detective happens to be a time traveler dealing with aliens and ridiculous hijinks. Even if you're not into Doctor Who, it works as a standalone time-traveling mystery. But if you are a fan, you'll love seeing River Song's wit and charm come through exactly as the actress intended. Fair warning: the early Doctor Who seasons have terrible special effects, but the plots and characters more than make up for it. --- Doctor Who: The Ruby's Curse: River Song Novel: https://amzn.to/3LCtDpG --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

This isn't about intimidation tactics you see on TV - it's about elicitation techniques that actually work. It's written by an ex-FBI agent. And yes, it'll help you catch people lying. But more importantly, it'll help you build richer relationships. You'll get an inside look on the subconscious drivers in all of us, and learn how to understand the fears, desires, and emotions that drive our behavior.

I read a lot of books (200+ each year), and I'm often asked for recommendations. In this episode, I share why Negotiating the Impossible by Deepak Malhotra stands out among these exceptional reads. Malhotra gives some excellent advice on negotiation, and he's earned the right to know what he's talking about. Maybe the things we negotiate in our lives aren't as intense as the geopolitical negotiations Malhotra has been through. But that's all the more reason why his insight can apply to us. Negotiation is all around us, from daily relationships to big business deals.

People assume I'm naturally disciplined, but I was famously undisciplined well into my 20s - performance improvement plans, boss lectures, the whole mess. But over the years, I've learned how to change things around. And this didn't happen alone. I took action and accountability, and implemented various systems of reminders through the rhythms of my life. And with more reminders came more discipline. I'll share how this system transformed my own discipline, and how implementing a similar system can transform yours too. --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

I'm in a lifelong pursuit to become awesome -- not 'better than everyone else' awesome, but truly living an epic, adventurous life. And I've discovered there are two distinct paths to get there.

Freedom comes from clarity and agency. When you have one without the other, you just end up frustrated. Most people I meet get stuck when they either can't see their options, or they see them but can't act on them. The solution isn't about positive thinking or grinding harder -- it's about systematically building both clarity and agency. Here's the catch: freedom itself isn't the point. Don't just get free -- find something worth spending that freedom on. --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

You don't have to spend your life being a spectator of greatness. You can be a participant. In this episode, I share the 3-part formula that's transformed my life from ordinary to exceptional.

I had the privilege of sitting down with my friend Christine Soule, whose incredible life story will fill you with hope. Her story is a testimony that even the darkest moments can lead to the brightest futures. From a childhood surrounded by dysfunction to being trafficked as a young mother of three, Christine's story of transformation is nothing short of remarkable. During our conversation, she shares the turning points that led her from her lowest point to founding Providence Heights, a nonprofit that's launched 14 businesses and helped countless women discover their worth and potential. Whether you're facing your own struggles or leading others through theirs, Christine's insights give us practical wisdom for own journeys.

We've reached the finale of our Learn How To Learn series. I've invited my friend Jonathan Crabb to discuss what might be the ultimate learning accelerant: learning together. You've built your personal learning system, mastered the fundamentals, and maybe even implemented some multipliers along the way. But what happens when you add another mind to the equation? It's not just addition -- it's transformation. Through stories of our reading retreats, peer discussions, and our unique "thinking partnership," Jonathan and I reveal how learning relationships can break through your perceived ceiling. And you can apply these same strategies and insights to your learning journey too. The right learning partner doesn't just help you grow faster. They help you grow in directions you'd never discover alone. As we close this series, discover why the journey from student to peer might be the most powerful learning path of all. --- You can connect with Jonathan on Twitter at: @JonathanBCrabb --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

As we near the end of my Learn How to Learn Deep Dive, I'm revealing powerful multipliers that can accelerate your learning journey. By now, you might already have a steady learning system in place. But even the best learning systems can begin to get stale or stagnate. Consider the strategies discussed in this episode as your "oil changes," or strategies to add on top of your foundational base. Your ceiling might be higher than you think.

Picking back up with the tenth installment of my Learn How to Learn Deep Dive, I'm revealing something counterintuitive: the key to learning isn't just about putting in more hours -- it's about mastering the rhythms of learning. The most successful learners don't just push harder -- they understand when to shift gears. It's about ebb and flow, imitating the rhythms we see in nature all around us. Drawing from my own journey learning Spanish, I demonstrate how small, consistent actions combined with strategic breaks can lead to remarkable growth. It's time to work with your natural rhythms, not against them. --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

I read a lot of books (200+ each year), and I'm often asked for recommendations. Out of the many books from last year, there were 12 non-fiction books that I gave a 5 star rating. In this episode, I share why Decoding Greatness by Ron Friedman stands out among these exceptional reads. Ask a legend in sports, business, or art about how they achieved their success, and you'd likely find a wealth of knowledge about their strategies, mindsets, and daily practices. If you want to be great in any category, you have to learn. Continuing our exploration of how to learn effectively, Decoding Greatness by Ron Friedman offers invaluable insights that build on everything we've discussed in our "Learn How to Learn" series. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. When going through your learning journey, always remember: you don't have to learn alone. You can learn from the greats. You can learn how *they* learned.

In this 9th installment of my Learn How to Learn Deep Dive, I'm tackling one of the most critical elements of growth: Feedback. Without good feedback, you could be reinforcing the wrong habits or working on the wrong things entirely. Through personal stories (from my early days in theater to my current practice of getting feedback from my wife), I share my journey of how honest feedback changed my rate of growth. You'll learn specific techniques for getting honest feedback, including an email template I use that you can request.

Our Learn How to Learn Deep Dive is almost complete. In the eighth installment, I'm revealing why your growth rate is determined by your amount of practice. It's common to passively wait for learning opportunities to happen to us, or only learn our lesson when we've already screwed up. But through my own journey (from learning Spanish to controlling my legendary sweet tooth), I'll show you how to design your own practice sessions for any skill you want to develop. And with these strategies in place, your "bad days" don't just have to be bad days -- they can become "good data." It's time to stop being a victim of circumstance and start putting yourself in the drivers seat of your own growth journey. --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind. The online program will teach you the same exact systems and strategies we've been using to transform brands for the past 20 years. No more wishing things could be different -- no more theorizing without action -- no more saying "that's for other brands, but not for me." With Legendary Brands Academy, everything is designed for you to take action and see transformation in real time. You'll learn the step-by-step systems you can begin to implement today.

In the seventh installment of my "Learn How to Learn" Deep Dive, we're exploring what might be the most important -- and most overlooked -- aspect of learning: the role of feelings and beliefs in your growth journey. Most people think learning is just about acquiring new information or skills. But what if your feelings and beliefs are setting the ceiling for how much you can grow? Through personal stories of both success and setbacks, I explain why the technical "how-to" often isn't what's holding us back -- it's our emotional readiness for change. I share my own journey of working on my heart first, which ultimately led to faster external growth than those who focused only on skills. It's time to look deeper than just acquiring new information. Let's explore how cultivating a healthy heart might be the key to unlocking your learning potential. --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

For the sixth installment of my "Learn How to Learn" Deep Dive, we're tackling a counterintuitive truth: sometimes the key to growth isn't what you learn, but what you unlearn. Western thinking often focuses on addition and accumulation. But subtraction might actually be the missing piece in your growth journey. From outdated coping mechanisms to limiting self-beliefs, learn how to identify what's no longer serving you. Most importantly, discover why being wrong feels exactly like being right -- and how this insight can transform your approach to personal growth. You'll hear all about how I had to learn these truths the hard way, and it wasn't always easy. If you can apply these principles now, the faster you'll be able to skyrocket your learning and personal growth. It's time to embrace unlearning as a crucial part of your learning journey. --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

It's the fifth episode of my "Learn How to Learn" Deep Dive. In a world of constant distractions and shrinking attention spans, how do you create the environment for true deep thinking? I share surprising tactical tips that have transformed my ability to process deeply -- from the unexpected power of paper over digital, to the scientific reason you should take a power nap. Even though I gravitate towards action and excitement, my quiet times of peace and solitude are essential for my mental wellbeing. You'll discover why NASA requires astronauts to nap, why being near water matters more than you think, and how to handle the inevitable distractions that try to derail your thinking time. These aren't just productivity hacks -- they're scientifically-backed strategies for creating the physical and mental space needed for breakthrough insights.
