If you've struggled with finding lasting happiness or that "great feeling" we all seek, this episode is going to give you some wonderful insight.
Most of us don't understand why we go through so many ups and downs in how we feel physically, emotionally, and even spiritually. This can sometimes lead to very negative habits which leave us with temporary good feelings but put us in a negative place over the long-term.

6/27/2016
Discover why it's not what you're going through in life that will define you and your worth to those around you. This can make or break your self-esteem if you don't understand what's most important when it comes to defining yourself.

How Much Money is Enough? Ep. 161
9/28/2015
Why do we need money? What's it's purpose in our life and how should we view it?
What should be our goal in having or earning money?
Money is just a means to an end, which means the amount of money we need is dependent on what we want to gain with our money. Is it security? Significance? Indulgence?
Can money actually buy us happiness? I think so and I explain why. You'll have to listen, but it's not a simple concept and not as basic as "money buys happiness." Listen.
Money doesn't buy...

Let's Get Naked So We Can Get Better - Ep. 159
9/7/2015
When we're emotionally, spiritually, and psychologically naked, we're forced to be honest and real with ourselves. When this happens, we can't hide behind something we may normally use to cover them up.
Four Ways to Cover Up
Oftentimes we employ various strategies or justifications for keeping ourselves "covered-up" so we don't have to deal with the truth of our nakedness. I've diluted these down to 4 general areas:
Each one of these is focused on the external which is outside of control....

Here's what I cover in this episode:
This is probably the most asked question of me. "How do I figure out my life purpose?"
I dig VERY deep into this topic and explore WHY we all feel a need to know this. Basically, it's about feeling valuable, feeling as though our life has meaning and isn't just wasted energy. We all want to know it somehow matters.

The Fear of Mediocrity
What it is and how it manifests itself in our life. I'm going to look at perfectionism and how it can stop us from doing what needs to be done to achieve our goals.
Maximum Capacity
We all have a maximum capacity for ourselves. I still believe, as humans we have an unlimited potential, but that don't mean in this moment, you have an unlimited ability. For example, even if you believe it, you can not hold your...

4 TV Shows That Won't Fry Your Brain - Ep. 154
7/25/2015
Sometimes we need a little down-time to just relax, but this isn't the opportunity to fill your mind with worthless garbage
I refer to most mainstream television as "junk food for the brain" because, just like junk food, it fills you up but has very little nutritional value. Television will fill your mind but it has no beneficial value. It's like cotton candy, a lot of fluff that tastes great in the moment, but it brings nothing of substance.
Keep in mind, there's very little wrong...

Is Wanting Money Wrong? Ep. 153
7/22/2015
For years, we’ve been programmed to believe that wanting money isn’t very noble. In fact, having lived most of my life in the Christian sub-culture, I’ve struggled with the idea that money is bad.
When I was 18, I was involved in Multi-Level Marketing and I was turned onto books like Think and Grow Rich, As a Man Thinketh, The Magic of Thinking Big and more. I was given these by Christian leaders in our business… and the books have this quasi-Christian undertone, but …

I don’t know who first came up with this concept, but I saw as part of list of way to get more done, on the LifeHacker website.
Later this month, I’m going to be flying to Ft. Worth Texas to give a quick presentation at Podcast Movement.

The Best Tool for Increased Performance - Ep. 149

I recorded this episode after taking a week off from most of my business work. In that week, I discovered a "tool" or even a "resource" which has increased my productivity several times over.

So, what is it? Well, it's the fact that I took a week off.

Alan Alda said, “At times you have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself.” My last episodewas an example of trusting and following my intuition.
