Episode 430 — AMMA — What Separates The Pros From The Rest
The people slowing you down aren’t always the ones you’d expect, and they’re closer than you think.
In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill break down the three types of people who quietly drain your time, energy, and momentum, and why distancing yourself from them is one of the most important leadership decisions you can make. From the ones who talk in circles to the idea generators who never execute, to the “must be nice” crowd who confuse luck with sacrifice, this conversation is a tactical guide to protecting your bandwidth and building a culture of accountability.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
- Why the people who say the most often have the least to offer, and how to identify when someone is avoiding accountability
- How to separate real initiative from empty ideation, and why ideas without execution are just hallucinations
- What the “must be nice” mindset reveals about envy, effort, and the victim mentality that holds people back
This episode is your reminder that who you surround yourself with determines how far you go, so choose carefully.

Show Notes:
Not everyone who talks a lot has something to say. “People who talk in circles are going to drive you crazy. I’m like, fast forward, can we skip to the part where you give me the answer to the question that I asked you?”
Ideas without execution are just hallucinations. “These are the people who are just masters of creating to-do lists for other people.”
You can’t teach hungry. “If you don’t come in hungry, like if you come in satiated, no thanks. We want people on the way up.”
Promotion should come with clarity, not confusion. “You don’t want somebody to step into a new role and be like, oh, this isn’t what I expected at all.”
