Playbook Radio #166 - Weekly Performance Review

Most people stumble into Monday unprepared. I'm going to show you how to change that with a simple Weekend Review practice that will put you ahead of 80-90% of professionals. In this episode, I share my personal Saturday morning routine for reviewing the previous week and mentally preparing for the one ahead. Just like coaches review game film to spot mistakes, I teach you how to look at your week in a non-judgmental way that creates real awareness and course correction. The 5-Step Weekend Review Process: Step 1: Get Quiet Find 15-20 minutes early in the morning before anyone else is up. No distractions. Just you and your thoughts. Step 2: Mental Revision Using a technique I learned from Neville Goddard, I show you how to mentally revise anything from the previous week that didn't go as planned. Didn't get the client? Revise the scene as if you did. Here's the secret: your subconscious mind doesn't know the difference between real and imagined facts. Stop replaying failures and start replaying successes. Step 3: Visualize Your Breakthrough Goals I recommend 1-3 breakthrough goals per area of life. But here's where most people get it wrong—they visualize in their head but not with their whole body. I'll teach you how to feel it with everything in you, see people congratulating you, and make it real in your mind before it manifests in reality. Step 4: Mental Rehearsal for the Upcoming Week Record everything coming up—meetings, tough clients, sales calls—then rehearse each interaction going well. By the time Monday arrives, you'll have already lived it successfully in your mind. Step 5: Daily Mental Check-Ins I give you four critical questions to ask yourself daily to interrupt autopilot thinking and keep your energy, morale, and nutrition on track. This practice takes less than 30 minutes on weekends and 5 minutes daily, but it will transform how you show up in your life. Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube. Join the conversation on my Substack and share your experience with the Weekend Review practice.

Playbook Radio #165 Dominant Mental Programming

Your dominant mental programming is controlling every aspect of your life—your relationships, your finances, your health, and your success. In this powerful episode, I break down why you can't outperform a negative mindset and how your thoughts directly determine what you can manifest in life. Using a compelling department store analogy, I explain why "the higher the thought, the bigger the manifestation." Just like you need to go to the top floor to find the big-ticket items, you need to elevate your thoughts to access bigger results in life. Key Takeaways: * Your current results are a direct reflection of your dominant mental programming * You're carrying subconscious "garbage" that's blocking your growth—and it needs to go * 90% of media and social content is a harmful distraction from your core purpose * Mental maintenance is like taking out the trash—it must be done consistently * You can't manifest what you want if your thoughts haven't taken you to that level I emphasize that releasing negative beliefs, memories, and programming isn't a one-time event—it's continuous work. Whether through therapy, coaching, or daily mental reprogramming, you must commit to cleaning out your mental house to create the life you truly want. Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.

Playbook Radio #166 - Weekly Mental Performance Review

I give my weekend review practice for mental preparation. The five-step process includes: getting quiet for 15-20 minutes, mental revision using Neville Goddard's technique to rewrite failures as successes, visualizing breakthrough goals as already achieved, mentally rehearsing the upcoming week, and scheduling daily mental check-ins. Your subconscious can't tell real from imagined—so replay successes, not failures. This practice gives you preparation beyond 80-90% of professionals.

Playbook Radio #164- NFL Coaches spend 80-100 hours a week in game planning

Synopsis In this episode, I share a striking revelation I just discovered: NFL coaches spend 85-100 hours per week game planning for just 3-4 hours of gameplay. This billion-dollar industry’s approach to preparation offers powerful lessons for personal and professional success. Key Insight: The most successful people I know are meticulous planners who understand that without a plan, you’re inviting chaos and failure. Failure typically results from neglect, not intention. What You’ll Learn: * Why you should set specific target dates and milestones for all projects * How to create contingency plans for unexpected setbacks * Ways to apply strategic planning to work, relationships, health, and finances * How to start small—even 3-5 hours of weekly planning makes a significant difference Bottom Line: If you prepare for the known, you’ll have confidence to handle the unknown. Strategic planning upfront pays dividends in execution and results.

Playbook Radio #165 - You Can't Afford to Feel Sorry for Yourself

I reveal why mental discipline separates winners from everyone else. Your mind is like a horse—if you're not directing it, it takes you wherever it wants, usually into victim mentality. When you catch yourself in a pity party, snap out of it fast and return to your game plan. Bad things happen to everyone, but controlling your thoughts determines your direction. Your mind takes you up or down—you choose. Subscribe here to get all of the latest updates and content: https://martinwilliams.substack.com/
