Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Stop Working With People You Don't Like August 13, 2025 | Episode 5158 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Scott drops some serious truth about relationships and who you choose to spend your precious time with. He's fired up about people who drain your energy and shares his personal rules for working only with folks you actually enjoy and respect. This isn't about being mean or difficult—it's about recognizing that life's too short to waste on people who don't light you up. Scott gets real about business relationships, serving others, and making sure you get paid what you're worth. Featured Story Fresh off recording multiple podcasts back-to-back, Scott shares his non-negotiable rules for working with people. He talks about business owners who love their employees but also call them their biggest problem. Scott reveals why he only works with people he genuinely enjoys and respects, and how this simple shift can transform your entire experience. He also teases tomorrow's upgrade to his Perfect Week Planner that's going to be "sexy as hell." Important Points Work only with people you enjoy, respect, and have a good time with—and make sure they feel the same about you. Choose work you love doing while genuinely helping people achieve real results and fulfilling your promises. Get paid what you're worth and decide that value yourself, whether it's money or the fulfillment that fires you up. Memorable Quotes "Sometimes relationships suck big time—don't wait until you're 65 to retire and say you can finally work with people you like." "If you do more of what you love to do and less of what you hate, you're going to be happy." "You can't serve until you earn—if you earn what you're worth, you can help so many people." Scott's Three-Step Approach Identify relationships that drain your energy and start setting boundaries today instead of waiting years to make changes. Focus on work that allows you to genuinely help people while doing what you love, even if it's challenging. Determine your worth and ensure you're getting proper value back, whether financial compensation or deep personal fulfillment.
