The FEAR of rejection will stop you in your tracks from doing the thing you need to do. I dropped my daughter off for volleyball camp and I could see the fear on her face of all the older kids kind of hanging out who have been in the program before. I used to not have any confidence or self esteem when I was younger just like her. The fear of rejection by any group of people can be so debilitating especially when you are going for your dreams. When you realize that you are wasting your life givi...

We just had a lesson for my Every Man A Warrior Bible study titled making your life count. I just kept thinking about that statement. For me, its about making an impact in somebody else’s life. You are not making your life count by going to a job that you cant stand. You are probably working just hard enough to stay there, and they are paying you just enough to stay. When you decide to change your life, you will need to find someone that can help your navigate this space? Are you ready to discov...

I have been sick for the last 24hrs and had some sort of fever and body aches. Took a personal day and just kinda laid around and watched a movie titled Greater. The movie was about a football player named Brandon Burlsworth. It was a great story about a kid with a dream and how he did everything in his life to make that dream come true. I couldn’t help but think of this bible verse which states, He who is greater that is in you, is greater than he who is greater that is in this world. this youn...

The opinions of other people will always come into play when you put yourself out there. I posted something other day when I posted somethin about something I saw. I was immediately attacked by so many people with negative comments. I took the post down, but it was very comical to me that I had so much engagement from this negative posts.. I find it interesting that I post this podcast everyday single day which is positive and uplifting and get minimal engagement. The opinions of other people sh...

I finally talk about my last pillar which is the most important to me for a multitude of reasons. FREEDOM! I talk to a friend who got let go from his job and he was completely blindsided. When you are so dependent on a job to survive you are trapped. There is no security in having a job and all are expendable. Why would you continue to conform to a belief system that is not in alignment with your own. If you a listener of this podcast you want to be FREE! This podcast has been the perfect medium...

I talk about taking my youngest daughter for a hike on Crowders Mountain for her 8th birthday. After that we took her to see the movie IF for her birthday and it wasn’t really a kids movie in my honest opinion, but there was a great message there within. The first line of the movie said the most important story we tell is the one we tell ourselves. I began to start thinking about the word IF. To me, that is the biggest word in the world! If i had more time, if I had more money, if I would have t...

Discuss my trip with my youngest daughter who is turning 8 tomorrow. I will be taking her to Crowders Mountain here for the first time!

My mom was having some mold issues underneath her house, and after receiving multiple estimates finally found an honest appraiser. Its funny to me that the price range went from 13K down to $1400.00 to correct the same problem. The company she chose discovered that their was a flower that had grown in complete damp, and darkness. She removed it and is now taking care of it. I instantly thought of a podcast episode about how many times in our own lives the biggest growth we inhibit comes from the...

Change the period to a comma in your life! When you feel like you can’t achieve any more and seem to be very stagnant you might have put a period to your thinking. We are only limited by the what we think about. I looked at a prayer request board at the gym, and people are hurting right now in this world. You have a purpose and calling here! Put a comma with those thoughts and start to rewrite your story to finish strong! God is not done working on me, and he isn’t done working on you either. Yo...

What you call small has everything to do with what YOU have seen BEFORE! How are you feeling today? Do you feel inadequate? It all starts with you BS! Your Belief System!

It cost my money, time, and its all been worth it! One day it will all be over, and can you honestly say that you gave this life y...

You owe it to yourself to pursue your dreams. I was talking to a friend who loves to travel a lot, and I asked him why! He said one day I wont be able too, and my time here will be over. We don’t know they day and hr of our departure here on this planet. Are you someone who has a message, and wants to blast it out to the world? When you realize that their will never be a good time for you to start the process. I spoke with a potential client the other day and he was so passionate about this mess...

I talk about an exercise that took place on our mastermind call. The power of the 5 Whys. Coach Caryl was able to allow us to take a deep dive and start asking some serious questions about why anyone would want a podcast, and why that matters. Most people want to be heard, and perhaps you feel that you don’t have a voice with the current people you are associating with. Start going through the 5 whys in your life and go through the process and start writing down what your discovery is. The main ...

Been listening to an audio book by Viktor Frankel, Mans search for meaning. Mans purpose for meaning is his primary motivation not a secondary rationalization. Wow! if your whole existence is to figure out why you are here, then what are you doing to search that out for your own life? Everybody at some point in their life will come to a point when you start to seek out purpose and significance. You will need to have a dream in order to fulfil both of those prophecies in your life. None of us kno...

You are going to suffer when you decide to take your shot!

The one thing that’s going to stop you from going for your dream is YOU! If you are stuck, what are you doing about it?

I talk about spending Mothers day with my family and how much my Mom has influenced me in my life, and on my journey! I am very fortunate to have had my mother in my life for all my years.

My mother has always been there for me and showed me what its like to love unconditionally and been my tour guide in life. You will need to seek out someone on you...

What are you afraid of? Knowledge isn’t found in a book, but gained through experience. Fear will rear its ugly head as you start on your journey to greatness! Taking the smallest amount of action will cure any fearful thoughts that start to arise in your mind. Your belief system about your dreams need to be dialed in! You might be telling yourself that you are not that important, and that would be a bold face lie! That’s the negative chatter preventing you from becoming the best version of you!...

Where our stories collide is the intersection where the magic happens. You really need to believe that you can make this happen!! Podcasting is not a get rich quick scheme, but you will need to develop yourself and create healthy habits around your content creation so that you can stay consistent through this process. If God puts something inside of you he will see it through, and you must not hesitate in that pursuit! You will need to remind yourself why you are doing what you’re doing? Who are...

I heard a speech at the Toastmasters Conference that talked about the rip chord moments in life. The analogy comes from a story of a guy who went skydiving and talked about how scared he was until he pulled the rip chord for the parachute. He stated that he had never felt so much peace when the shoot opened, and he realized that he wasn’t going to die. We should always be looking for moments in life that will forever change our lives. I had that moment when I put my car title up for cash just 18...

The world needs to hear from you and once you realize that you can begin to see the opportunity that awaits for you! What have you been through that could be a blessing to someone else? Most people don’t wanna put in the work in regards to pu...

I talk today about being the product of your product! We had a coaching call awhile back and I was wondering what type of course, product, or problem i am solving. My mentor told me that the product is me. I was like huh, me, really? Interesting. Today I am in the top 1% of podcasters, and you wouldn’t believe that to be in that spot you only have to put out 21 episodes. Most people give up way to soon to see the blessing come. You have got to understand that you need your podcast to be purpose ...
