Send us a text "I'm not quite ready," says everyone. "Ready" is bullshit. It's a form of self-sabotage and procrastination. While you're waiting to be "ready" others are lapping you. While you're waiting to be "ready" what you're really doing is waiting for life to slam the door on you in order to start. Don't wait for circumstances to be just right. Don't wait for others to swing in and help you. Start with what you have...

I hate that phrase, because the statement makes it seem like that you're giving up...unless you're Michael J. Fox. The 80's phenom actor has been battling with Parkinson's for over 30 years. How does Fox deal with not being able to press the buttons on his phone or suddenly fall down? He told Men's Health Magazine, he deals with moments like this by saying, "It is what it is." But it is NOT how you think. Fox said, &...
May 31, 2021•8 min•Transcript available on Metacast Send us a text One thing I love about doing a podcast is learning from other podcasts and sharing my perspective with others. Joe Ferraro of the "One Percent Better Podcast" and Alan Stein, Jr. of the "Raise Your Game Show" had a discussion about the EGO. The age old question is what do you do with the ego? Keep it or kill it? Some say you should not have an ego. I say you MUST have an ego, but the right kind of ego. There are 2 types of ego: A big ego and a strong ego. Using...

And just an overall bad-ass, resilient individual. In episode 589 back in October of 2020.

May 16, 2021•57 min•Transcript available on Metacast Send us a text As a young man at football camp, a kicking coach gave Josh Altman some sage advice. No matter what’s on the line or the pressure you may feel, “always kick the ball the same.” Not only did Altman carry that forward as an athlete, but he carried it forward in his career as a highly successful real estate agent to LA’s rich & famous. Your inconsistency is due to your reputation. “When you half-ass your job, you’re hurting your reputation. Your reputation doesn’t just affect the ...

There was a time you were a boss, beast, and certified bad-ass...but today your life is just bad. It all seems wrong, doesn't it? "All" being the operative word. In his book, " Relentless Solution Focus," Dr. Jason Selk writes, "A pattern I have seen in highly successful people is what I refer to as the 'attack mentality.'" "Those with the attack mentality ...

Apr 28, 2021•24 min•Ep 633•Transcript available on Metacast Send us a text Richard Fenton, co-author of one of my favorite books, “Go For No,” said, “Your comfort zone is either shrinking or expanding, but it never stays the same.” It’s either/or, but it’s not neither nor. One question to ask yourself right before making a decision is, “Am I shrinking or expanding in this moment!” Playing it safe, selective, or judgmental only tightens the bands of “comfort,” until you’re a shadow of what you once were or could‘ve been. You can’t shrink your way into gre...

She thought out loud about what position she should play & her jersey number. I asked her one question, “Are you prepared to ride the bench?” What will you do if you step into the arena and you’re not an instant success? What will you do if you have to work just as hard, if not harder than the others, yet they get the limelight & you don’t even get a ”thank you...
