The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

Now, what is the role of the person?

The Action Catalyst

So if it's Chuck's idea, what is my job?

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

And almost everyone, I won't put you on the spot because everyone says the same thing.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

Support the idea.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

And that's not the answer.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

The answer is actually lead the idea to success.

The Action Catalyst

So if it is Chuck's idea, then it's my job to go make it work.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

In the essence, we both have to lead it to success because 80% to 90% of any great idea, it has nothing to do with the idea in itself.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

It has to do with the way you execute it.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

Rarely will Chuck and I ever, and I don't know if there's a day we've ever looked at an idea that's failed and looked at each other and said, told you so.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

There is no told you so.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

There is, man, we screwed that up.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

What do we learn and how do we improve it for the next time?

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

Very, very good quote and very, very true.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

So we just never get really caught up or enamored with ourselves.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

I think Chuck and I don't spend a lot of time in the accolades of what we've done because that just creates complacency and laziness.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

And we just have very little tolerance for that.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

Chuck is an innovator.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

He will challenge a status quo every day of the week, and he makes good great.

The Action Catalyst
Leading With Purpose, with Dave Mortensen (Fitness, Leadership, Franchising, Partnerships)

He does.
