    120. Why Change Is So Hard (And How to Push Through It)
    Oct 20 2026

    Why is it so hard to change, even when we know our current approach isn't working? In this episode, John Haskell explores why individuals and businesses struggle to adopt new behaviors and practices, even when those changes could lead to better results. He explains how we become comfortable with familiar ways of doing things, and why learning a new process often means temporarily performing worse before we get better. Whether you're changing your grazing management, improving your business practices, or learning a new skill, that uncomfortable middle stage is often where people give up too soon.

    John breaks down the four stages of competence, from not knowing what you don't know to becoming skilled enough that a process feels automatic. Drawing on examples from grazing management and jiu-jitsu, he explains why recognizing what you still need to learn is an important step toward improvement. He also shares lessons from Angela Duckworth's Grit, emphasizing why consistency, repeated effort, and endurance matter more than short-lived enthusiasm when you're working toward lasting change.

  • 400 Acres, No Money Down: Greg & Ann Christiansen's Story [Ranchonomics Stories Ep 12]

    400 Acres, No Money Down: Greg & Ann Christiansen's Story [Ranchonomics Stories Ep 12]
    Oct 15 2026
    What does it take to build a farm and ranch business when you don't have much money to start with? In this Ranchonomics Stories episode, John Haskell and Wally Olson sit down with Greg and Ann Christiansen to look back at more than 40 years of marriage, ranching, farming, raising a family, and figuring things out along the way. From low-paying cowboy jobs and a growing family to renting their first farm ground and eventually buying land with little money down, Greg and Ann share the decisions, opportunities, and setbacks that shaped their operation.Their story includes plenty of hard lessons, from medical bills and financial mistakes to drought, livestock losses, and a cattle deal that went sideways. But it also shows how persistence, careful cash flow management, relationships, and taking opportunities when they appeared allowed Greg and Ann to keep building. They discuss how they acquired 400 acres without a down payment, why Ann's financial management was critical to the business, and how Greg began planning for succession years before he was ready to step away. Most importantly, they share why the difficult years tend to fade with time and why simply continuing to move forward can be one of the most important skills in ranching.Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode! In this episode, we cover:How renting a house and 40 acres in 1990 gave them a foothold and allowed Greg to gradually build a livestock and farming operationHow Greg and Ann eventually bought 400 acres with no money down by combining Farm Credit and FSA financing and working with landowners willing to carry notesThe lessons they learned from drought, livestock losses, a failed cattle deal, and other setbacks that seemed devastating at the timeHow Ann's financial discipline and behind-the-scenes work helped keep the business moving forward while Greg focused on the physical operationWhy Greg began thinking about succession at age 55 and how Ranching for Profit helped him develop a path for Travis to eventually buy into the businessConnect with Greg & Ann:Follow on YoutubeCheck out their websiteEmail Greg at greglchristiansen@gmail.comConnect with Ranch Right:Subscribe on YouTube Follow on Instagram @ranchrightllc Follow on Facebook Check out the website Check out all of our past webinars hereResources & Links:Caitlyn TaussigDavid BrooksFrom Strength to Strength by Arthur C.

  • 119. What Four Generations of Ranching Taught Steve Teichert About Genetics

    119. What Four Generations of Ranching Taught Steve Teichert About Genetics
    Oct 13 2026

    What can four generations of ranching teach you about selecting cattle that actually work? In this episode, John Haskell talks with Steve Teichert of Mackay, Idaho, about the lessons he has learned over more than 80 years of working with cattle. Steve challenges some common assumptions about EPDs, phenotype, and cattle performance, arguing that genetics can't be evaluated separately from the environment and economics of the operation.

    Steve shares examples from his own experience, including why extremely high EPDs don't necessarily translate to better cattle in a rough environment, what he learned from breeding oversized cattle, and why fertility and maternal ability matter more than simply producing a big animal. He also explains how decades of selection pressure helped move his own weaning weights from around 400 pounds to roughly 700 pounds on challenging range with very few inputs, and why ranchers need to pay attention to the actual results their cattle are producing rather than simply following an industry practice.

    Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!

    In this episode, we cover:

    • Why Steve questions the usefulness of comparing EPDs across breeds and production environments
    • Why cattle selected for high production in one environment may not perform well in a rougher, lower-input environment
    • What Steve learned from breeding extremely large cattle and seeing problems with fertility and maternal ability
    • How selecting cattle for performance in their environment helped Steve nearly double his family's historical weaning weights
    • Why calving season, forage availability, and reproductive performance need to be evaluated together
