Pants Around Ankles Prevention

Everybody has had the very uncomfortable and often embarrassing experience of having been caught with their pants around their ankles. The thing is, usually pants around ankles are preceded by mistakes. Mistakes in judgment, mistakes and execution. And often there’s not a single mistake, but a whole series of smaller ones that precipitates that area and uncomfortable outcome. I’m Greg Hayne of the Hayne Coaching Group. This podcast is about helping you prevent those experiences. And in it I’m gonna answer questions you’ve asked, questions that you haven’t asked but should have. And otherwise, share some ideas that are designed to keep those pants of yours buckled firmly around your waist. So let’s see what I’ve come up with for today!

In Another Way to Look at the Same Problem, we explore the idea that much of life’s frustration stems from a lack of awareness—not just being physically asleep, but moving through life mentally on autopilot. Drawing from spiritual wisdom, personal reflection, and even a touch of humor, this episode invites you to consider how “waking up” changes your perception, priorities, and daily actions. Whether or not you agree with the perspective, it might just shift how you approach the challenges you face.

Prompted by a sudden awareness of his limited runway, Greg shares how he’s learning to say “no” more intentionally—not out of fear, but to make room for what’s truly best. From career to relationships, this episode is a candid invitation to evaluate your own life and ask: What are you holding onto that’s just good… when you could be choosing what’s best?

All of us are living with illusions about ourselves, our relationships, everything, all the time. 

Hayne Coaching Group

A few years ago, I figured out that behind everything I do in my work with my customers is my desire to help them find and then implement better, smarter, more innovative ways to work. I do this primarily through our facilitated peer groups. 



Our ESE Peer Groups bring similar-sized and focused, growth-minded, non-competing roofers together three or more times a year to share best practices, help each other solve problems, and generally create a setting where the members can get better in a supportive environment. These have been a massive home run for all those involved.  You don’t have to figure things out by yourself anymore!
