6ers, the significance of constant adjustments, or small but strategic changes to a system or process can unlock many of your hidden potentials. By identifying and resolving potential problems before they escalate and strategically making adjustments, you can drive significant improvements in output, returns, and risk management of your business operations or personal development journey.
Jerry Flanagan is a US army veteran and a co-founder and CEO of JDog Brands, one of the fastest-growing veteran brands in the US. A junk removal operation a decade ago and has since expanded into a nationwide, multi-service franchise organization. JDog now has over 200 franchise contracts and continues to expand. Over the next 10 years, JDog Brands aims to have 5,000 new franchisees nationwide.
You will learn that these small shifts in perspectives and practicing empathy in action can lead you to a more productive and positive journey where you become deeply aware of your own potential and have a jumping-off point to make better strategic adjustments. As time pass, you will realize that the cumulative effect of this has led you to achieve your desired outcomes.
Thus, implementing this in your personal development, career progression, or business journey can have the profound effect of being able to transcend your own limiting beliefs as the results of that little progress you make manifest itself in clear outcomes that you have only once dreamed of.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
