About this episode
In today's episode, Garrett and Matt are joined by Gretchen Adams, a Ninja Selling coach from St. Louis, Missouri, who works with RedKey Realty Leaders. Gretchen has joined forces with another coach, Tona Restine, to create a Ninja Coaching book study, and today she walks our hosts and listeners through the details of this remarkable resource – what it is, how it runs, and how to become a part of it. Gretchen begins by sharing that both she and Tona are avid readers and they created this book study to read more themselves and also to encourage others to engage with books that help them look at their business a little differently. Gretchen goes on to explain that, for each study, they both read the assigned book, record a review, and then hold the actual study itself. Their most recent book is The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday, which was divided into three weekly studies, and they are currently meeting most Mondays with discussions being held over Zoom for about an hour each. As you will hear, this Ninja Selling book study is an initiative that has just grown and grown and is receiving rave reviews.

Episode Highlights: It's not a necessity to read the book. The book study focuses on development books. No matter the intake style, the book study emphasizes what you can learn. So many great things surface from the conversations around the books. How can reading bring progress in other areas of your life? Each book study discussion has been recorded and all are available to go back to. Quotes: "These are books that can help improve your business, improve your life." "So you don't have to necessarily read it to get value out of it." "Learners are earners. And you have to read to lead." "Reading opens your mind. It helps you stay away from your own bias." "If you just join our Facebook group, they're (all the study recordings) all there." "If you don't have the right mindset wrapped around whatever you want to do, the rest is not going to follow. You could read every instructional book out there, and it won't get you to where you want to be. So it always starts with mindset." "That's the power of the collective group that you've started to grow here. That you really get a different look at a book from potentially 45 angles, when you have 45 people on that want to talk and share." "Doing more reading aligns very well with the Ninja philosophy. Because you are growing your mind, you are improving your mindset."
