How To Be Happy When Things Change
Don’t Worry, Be Happy! Remember back in the day that super popular, light hearted song from Bobby McFerrin?Man… so what happened to us all since then? It seems all we do is stress, freak out and dive into anxiety whenever change arrives in our lives. So… how to be happy when things change. Now that is the question. And I’m hoping to provide an answer to that tough question through a flashback story that hit me this morning. It has to do with being a kid again. You will hear how when my Mom and Dad moved us from Minnesota to North Dakota, I took it on as a total…

This Too Shall Pass…
This Too Shall Pass…. Your struggles and stresses…..this too shall pass! Your wealth and successes….this too shall pass! No matter the emotion or scenarios currently being played out in life, remember that “this too shall pass”! These four words aren’t meant to scare you or to give false hope! These four words are to remind each one of us that things will change. That nothing will stay consistent without directed attention and efforts. Our lives will only be cemented in history when we choose to give in. As these words were written in Og Mandino’s “The Greatest Salesman In The World”, I was reminded that the constant in my life…

Where Are You Walking?
So where are YOU walking these days? In this recent solo shot episode, I share with you both a mindset hack when it comes to the power of walking as well as some of my back in the day personal stories around putting feet to pavement. As I got ready to record this latest episode, I randomly grabbed a book from my personal library. My grasp brought back a book called, “The Quotable Walker” from the Editors of Walking Magazine. While flipping through the pages, I came across these two quotes. “Your feet will bring you where your heart is.” Irish Proverb Immediately underneath it, this quote… “Men go abroad…

Pulling The Trigger
Pulling The Trigger! You’re up to bat… Have two strikes on you… You’re suppose to protect the plate by at least fouling off a ball that’s close to being a strike, yet you still freeze at that beachball of a strike which floats across the middle of the strike zone……. Why does one freeze and fear pulling the trigger? Whether speaking upon a tough subject…. Asking someone out on a date…. Or changing your direction in life towards a passion or dream, all of our fears are different as to why we don’t pull the trigger. It’s time for each of us to figure out why we won’t take action,…

Tell Your Story: Healing and Connection
Tell Your Story. In this latest solo shot episode, I was inspired by a recent post by a former guest of our podcast Danny Page. In a very short period of time, he has had a profound impact of my life and journey within my own personal development. His recent post inspired me to share my perspective on why it is so vital for all of us… and especially YOU… to tell your story. I truly believe that each one of us possess a power and obligation of leadership in telling our story to the world. For I in that telling, you are able to both heal and connect with…

Rewards Are Great If One Succeeds…..
“Rewards Are Great If One Succeeds….But Rewards Are Great Only Because So Few Succeed!”~~ The Greatest Salesman In The World This morning I decided to dive back into this easy but powerful read written by Og Mandino….and after having read this and underlining it, I sat on these words for some time. What is it in life which we consider ‘rewards’? What is it in life which we feel we’ve been rewarded for our efforts, yet truly looking at the so-called ‘reward’, we are unfulfilled? It might be that the reward we felt we earned never caused us to grow because we played it safe. Here are a few kickers…

Sincerity: Are You Truly Connecting?
Welcome back to the podcast and Eddie and I certainly hope your Thanksgiving holiday weekend was full of laughs, great food, friends, family and relaxation. Now we’re back with another solo shot episode. And it’s time to ramp up our sincerity. You see more and more it seems that our level of connection with one another is fading away. With the speed of social media and technology, sincerity seems to be sacrificed for a thumbs up, an emoji or a catchphrase. And to be blunt, this lack of sincerity bums me out. You see I believe that expressing sincere and heartfelt feedback, appreciation and love is what connects us at…
