Torres Gomez: Measuring salespeople by inputs rather than outputs reduces frustration
“If you measure salespeople only by their output, how much they're converting and selling, as opposed to how much input they're making, it makes a whole lot of a difference because you teach them to control what they can actually control and let everything else…”
Torres Gomez: Anxiety and panic attacks are often trapped creative energy
“I bet, I mean, it would be very interesting to know this, that anxiety and panic attacks and everything is just trapped energy trying to get out. Because remember, we're energy. At the end of the day, we're energy. And if there's creative energy and ideas that…”
Torres Gomez: Believing outcomes stem solely from effort ignores luck
“I think going through life and thinking that everything you do is solely because of your effort and your presence here is ignoring the rules of nature. It's ignoring how incredibly lucky we are when living this mysterious life, right? So when you go through li…”
Torres Gomez: Startups Prevent Burnout by Combining Discipline With Outcome Detachment
“And it doesn't mean being lazy and just going to sleep, but actually showing up with discipline, doing whatever the hell they have to do, and then leaving everything to the universe and to life and to the markets so that it can take care of itself. In that way…”
Torres Gomez: Fixed Mindsets and Perfectionism Drive Startup Burnout
“A lot of people that burnout in our company is they truly don't get into that mindset, the growth mindset. But instead, keep themselves into something called the fixed mindset, where they think they need to be perfect, right, all the time, and they think they …”
Torres Gomez: The goal is moderating anxiety to optimal levels, not eliminating it
“That's the Yerkes and Dotson law, because the problem really with anxiety and being extremely aroused is at some point it's diminishing returns. So the more anxious you start getting, the less you perform, the less creative you begin to be. So the trick really…”
Torres Gomez: Purpose is necessary to fulfill the entrepreneurial journey
“Purpose is completely necessary to be able to fulfill the entrepreneurial journey in the correct way. It's not all about money. It's not all about fame. It's about the why you're doing things, and I think that why is hidden behind silence, reflection, ponderin…”
Torres Gomez: You cannot create and edit work at the same time
“Creation is a messy journey, so you can't create a book and edit it at the same time. You cannot compose a song and produce it at the same time, because you're, that editing and producing are acts of judgment, of fixing things.”
Torres Gomez: Ontop employees rejected higher-paying jobs for remote flexibility
“Some of my team members have turned down like very, very good opportunities, high paying jobs, just because they say, hey, There's nothing like having time with my family. There's nothing like going to the gym at 11 a.m.”
Torres Gomez: Founder panic stems from perceived external expectations
“And you usually get stressed out or panicked or whatever, because you think society is expecting something from you. Oh my God. What will my investors say? They gave me all this money. They're expecting X or Y. What will my parents say? Or my friends, I have a…”
Torres Gomez: Founders reduce stress by treating startup adversity as a game
“If you take it too personally, and if you play victim, you'll have a shitty time. But if you see it as part of the game, and kind of draw a little bit of fun out of it, the stress goes away, and you enter into the playful state, remove the expectations again”
Torres Gomez: Building a business is the exact same process as songwriting
“I see building a business as the exact same process as writing a book or composing a song. It's actually very similar because you need to be able to experiment, try out a lot of stuff to be okay with it sucking while you're making it, right?”
