Dallin needs a little time-out. He needs a fresh palette and outlook to work from. Lately I have let the podcast slip through my fingers and become something that is done with less intention and purpose than it once was... so I am taking a break until February 3. Here are my three reasons why: 1. This is not a full-time gig for me. Although I love doing the podcast it is not at a point where it is organized and planned out enough to support a much larger audience than it currently has. The way t...

This is something I have struggled SO much with so I'm PUMPED to drop this episode! I hope it is helpful for you in some way. 1. Social Media (instead look at your journal) 2. Opposites of you (talk to your mentors) 3. Productivity of that day (appreciate the journey instead) Support the show

Anyone who has talked with me in the last few months would know I kind of let my self-talk get out of hand - I started caring a lot less about what I was hearing and didn't tame it as much. It has led to a lot of feelings of inadequacy and imposter syndrome... but I'm not giving up! Here are a few of my thoughts that I have started telling to myself that have helped a lot for me overall. 1. This isn't going to change how I feel about you 2. This is the best thing that could have happened to me. ...

Lately I have been struggling with managing my time... so I wanted to make an episode about it. As always I hope it is helpful. :) 1. Constantly checking what time it is (and how much time you have left) 2. Falling prey to the Diderot effect without realizing it. 3. Saying that you have no time. https://www.instagram.com/yieldtodaywithdallinpodcast/?hl=en Support the show

With all of the mental chaos that happened in my mind last year I have been a bit rattled up in the beginning of a new year. It is always easy to stress about making the same mistakes again... Thankfully I have had a number of thoughts come to mind to serve me, and I am going to run with them. These are my three mantras for 2022! I hope that they are inspirational for you in some way. 1. "I was not ready, but I was prepared" 2. Hakuna Matata... no worries... I am giving myself a worry-less 2022....

It is tempting to think of 2021 as a less than productive year for me. Nothing could be further from the truth. Here are 5 of the big wins I had from 2021. 1. 50 Push-ups in 10 minutes Challenge 2. Going to the THT Retreat – Life by design, How Might We, feeling useful 3. Upgrading Laptop (cleaning / more RAM – It is a mini powerhouse – But the power isn’t – video editing programs 4. Pizza Hut – Learning About Systems – Making it so easy that anyone can do it. 5. Networking, diving deep into web...

I had such high hopes for 2021. Ultimately though I didn't make it. I talked more about it here and what happened. I have high hopes for 2022 though. Hope you had a good 2021. :) Health - I was very hard on myself this year - mental health Ran a decent amount first part of the year and then with little injuries I started running less and less and I took that personally. I created systems but it was mostly for more output and not necessarily to help out me. Let my feelings lead to experiences far...

I had SO many takeaways from 2021. Here are some of the ones that I wanted to share with you though. I hope that they are helpful. Lessons Learned: 1. 1:01 - Worrying doesn’t help anything, as time lessens the need for action increases. You are always preparing for what you will harvest in the future. Once you have a good enough idea of what you need to do next just take the thing down. 2. 3:17 - The power of visuals – having images that inspire strong emotions that bring out your best is one of...

I heard Madison speak about breathing and presence at Tree House Talks last semester and was blown away by it! I thought she would be great for the podcast and she agreed to come on. Today we talked a little about Madison's journey so far through college, taking care of herself, and learning about the power of presence and flow. This was definitely a really fun episode to record, and I hope you guys enjoy it too. If you would like to hear more from Madison and/or ask her about being present here...

It is the last week of 2021! I am honestly super humbled with all of the insights that I have gotten this year. I will say that I feel I spent a bit too much time on the sidelines and worrying about things outside of my control. Here at the end of the year I have a bit more clarity on these things so I wanted to share some of my biggest thoughts to help me with this last week. I hope that these thoughts are helpful for you too. "No one really believes that they are going to die." - Morrie, "Tues...

I recently finished up my internship at Stukent. The experience provided a ton of momentum and growth for me and I am anxious as to how to move forward from here. I decided to go on a walk with this as the main question in my mind. I came back with some solid gems of thought to ponder on and learn from. I wanted to share them with you in case these were some messages that could be useful for you too. 1. "Don't wish for another timeline." - It is easy to compare our current lives to where we coul...

One of the most mind-blowing things I have learned in my life is how what we let into our minds influences a lot of what we are able to create and do in our lives. Today I wanted to dive into this important topic and share some things that I think will be helpful as you seek to consume more thought food that will help you in your lives. Amount - Our brains take in so much information at once it is easy to forget how the amount we are getting is influencing our other decisions and the quality of ...

Truly this semester has shook me to my core. My lack of discipline in my schedule has led to a real lack in the overall living of my life. Even though my grades this semester were great my overall feelings and satisfaction of it were way low. Something that has helped me in darker times though is looking to and remembering things I am excited about for the future.... so... I dove into some of my quick thoughts on three of those. Hope you enjoy. :) 1. People - Meeting new people from all walks of...

Treehouse Talks is a community public speaking event that started in Provo, UT but is coming to many more cities VERY soon! I am very blessed to be part of the team helping it to grow in Rexburg. Last weekend the Treehouse Talks team had a giant retreat and I was able to go. :) Truthfully I needed this trip. It helped me to step into a part of myself I feel has been kind of left on the sidelines recently. In any case I feel very inspired to try again and move forward from all of my mistakes and ...

I have REALLY struggled with staying focused this semester. A week ago I started reading from "Indistractable" by Nir Eyal and it is helping me a lot! I look forward to having him on the podcast to dive DEEP into what I got out of this reading and how it has helped me in my life. For now, we have my initial takeaways from my first 30 or so pages through the book. As always I hope it is useful for you in some way. :) 1. All motivation is a desire to escape discomfort 2.

It is no secret that I have not been super consistent with uploading the podcast recently. I have been wanting to record/upload a ton of interviews... it hasn't really happened. I cannot blame it on my guests. I cannot blame it on the listeners of this podcast. I need to take full responsibility. The ball was in my court and I didn't take the shots I needed to take. With that said... I am still very optimistic. I have learned that the moments of failure are nothing compared to the great times th...

Wow so I totally thought I uploaded the "Struggles From My Third Semester" episode here. Haha I love how I didn't realize it until like 8 people had downloaded it! Anyways.... yeah this is an episode I made on a whim a bit ago but I didn't think the audio was high enough quality. I was quite bummed when I first listened to it again as I thought I had some great points and I saw it as a "milestone episode" of sorts. Yeah so I am going to edit this episode a bit (because I know there are some dead...

I have found that one of the biggest things that sets apart those who really get to capitalize on their dreams and ambitions and those who fizzle out early on is consistency and follow through. I would like to define each of these very quickly for you. Consistency Being able to stick to a plan for growth and provide a predictable yet useful offering on a consistent basis. Showing up to work on time every day shows you are consistent, and it suggests that you are on the path to becoming the best ...

Yesterday I woke up WAY too early and decided to go on a run. While I was on the run, and shortly after, I had some thoughts come together that I thought may be worth making a podcast episode about. As always I hope it is helpful in some way. :) 1. You just need to get up this hill. If you are on the right path it will always be uphill. 2. All of the good stuff you are doing is preparing you for better things. 3. Everyone has their own individual journey we know little about, empathy is the key....
