In this energizing episode of Shark Theory, Baylor Barbee reflects on his back-to-school keynote at Holland Elementary and shares big insights from a simple exercise he observed—piggybacking. Whether you're leading a team, chasing a goal, or just trying to finish the year strong, Baylor breaks down why you don’t have to start from scratch, how to leverage the success of others, and why picking a word of focus can anchor your remaining months of 2025.

This episode is a call to action: drop your ego, ask for help, model what works, and commit to finishing what you started.

Key Takeaways:

Piggybacking Is Power: You don’t need to reinvent the wheel—borrow proven strategies and adapt them to your style.
Drop the Ego, Find the Result: You’re in a results-based life. Let go of needing credit and focus on moving forward.
Track > Trailblazing (Sometimes): You’ll move faster on a proven path. Save innovation for after you’ve gained traction.
Pick a Word, Find Your Focus: Anchor your remaining year with a single word that captures your goal. Write it down. Live it daily.
FINISH What You Started: Progress only matters when it’s completed. Don’t carry undone goals into the next year.

Notable Quotes:

“Piggyback on what works, then season it to taste.”
“You don’t have to be the first to do it—you just have to be committed to doing it right.”
“I want to go into next year with completions, not half-done ideas.”
“Stop trying to figure it all out. Someone already has. Copy, adapt, and move forward.”
