Jimmy Smith: Creativity, Authenticity, Growth (Part 2)

Michael Gervais (0:09)

All right, welcome back or welcome to the Finding Mastery podcast. I'm Michael Gervais. Finding Mastery is brought to you by Bubbs Naturals. Like many of you, I'm mindful about what I put in my body. For me, it usually comes down to ingredients and simplicity. The shorter the list, the better. And if I have to look it up, I'm usually out. That's why I've been loving Bubbs Naturals.

Bubbs creates products with high quality, all natural ingredients designed to help people get after their adventures in life. I've been a huge fan of their hydrate or dye electrolyte mix for years now. It only has six total ingredients, but it's packed with five times the electrolytes as conventional sports drinks, with none of the added sugars, artificial flavors, sweeteners or preservatives. It's great for post-workout recovery, outdoor adventures and staying hydrated during long periods of travel, which I've done a lot of lately, and Bubbs is a go-to for me. Plus, all Bubbs products are 100% NSF4 Sport Certified, which means they pass the most rigorous quality standards.

They're currently in just about every MLB locker room, working closely with the Red Sox, Yankees, Rangers, Cardinals, Diamondbacks and more, of course.

And this is part two with Jimmy Smith from Amusement Park Entertainment, where we just left the conversation where he was talking about stress wood. And now we're moving into the importance of why working with diverse people and diversity is so important for business and life success. So let's jump right back into this conversation with Jimmy Smith.

Jimmy Smith (4:00)

I don't know who wrote the article, this particular, whether it was coming from.

Michael Gervais (4:04)

OK, so I'm sorry to interrupt, but I'm so excited about this. You're not sure if this is like a concept that is well accepted in science.

Jimmy Smith (4:11)

No, I think it is.

Michael Gervais (4:12)

It is.

Jimmy Smith (4:13)

I'm almost positive. Yeah, if you Google stress wood, it'll come up.

Yeah.

Michael Gervais (4:17)

God, I love it. So you read that. You said this is my phase in life right now with stress wood.

Why?

Jimmy Smith (4:23)

I got so happy when I read that.

Michael Gervais (4:26)

So that simple idea.

Jimmy Smith (4:27)

Yeah.

Michael Gervais (4:28)

And what did it do for you?

Jimmy Smith (4:29)

Oh, it made sure I withstood the storm. It made sure that I didn't...

I saw where I wanted to go and where I wanted to do what I wanted to accomplish.

Michael Gervais (4:37)

What is that, your vision, like those big goals that you have?

Jimmy Smith (4:42)

I want the amusement park to be a combination of Disney, Sony and Apple.

And in that world, I'll then be able to put my, not just my voice, but the individual voices of everybody that works there out into the world. And hopefully we attract positive people who have a love of God, a love of life and whatever, whatever, whatever. Then on top of that, if you aren't going to hire any black folks, if you aren't going to hire any brown folks...
