Demanding Of Others
Demanding Of Others! All of the inspiration of this goes to Eric Thomas, otherwise known as E.T. The HipHop Preacher! The question is how demanding of others are we, rather than hold the expectations or demands of ourselves? Don’t You Dare Fail Me! Don’t You Dare Let Me Down! My Expectations Of You Are High, So Don’t Lose My Respect! Does any of this sound familiar? Your Success Is Dependent Upon You And Your Actions Hold Your Self Respect At A Higher Level Than That Which You Hold On Others Critique And Dissect Your Life And Actions, Rather Than Continuously Critiquing Others Show Others How It Is Done, Rather Than…

Why We All Want To Be Conor McGregor.
Conor McGregor. We all want to be him… even when we don’t. Yup that’s right. All of us want to be just like Conor McGregor even when we hate him. As I watched UFC 205 at Madison Square Garden in NYC this past weekend, it struck me solid in my jaw like a Conor over hand left. Conor McGregor has what we all want. And believe me it’s hard for me to admit that as I’ve never been a fan of him. Ever. In fact, pretty much everything he does annoys the shit out of me. The swagger walk as he enters the ring like in the photo above. The…

Now It Makes Sense
Now It Makes Sense “That’s what heaven is. You get to make sense of your yesterdays” Mitch Albom As I came across that quote, I really felt it hit the mark when it comes to my recent journey of re-construction.

Going head to head with pieces of my past that have baffled and crippled me for years. I can honestly say…

We Had To Stop Living A Lie.
We had to stop living a lie. It was time. Just like the quote above shares, Eddie and I had worn ourselves down to the bone over these past few years in creating our vision for Mindset Mountain. We’ve had a ton of wins along the way for sure, there is no doubt about that. But along that same path, we kept putting our best masks on for the rest of the world. To hide from the fact that we were not taking care of ourselves. To stop living a lie. Everything was about pushing out great content, inspiring people and doing all we could to create success with Mindset…

Preciatcha! Appreciation is the Inspiration!
Appreciation is the name of the game folks. In this episode of Inspire the Fire Fridays, I share a recent reminder of how a simple message of appreciation can lift you up to new heights. You will hear how a simple couple of sentences from a dear friend of mine hit my heart and brought a big old smile to face. And how the power within our friendships should never be taken for granted. Plus you will hear the story of how I was introduced to the very efficient slang of Georgia Southern Belles Ingrid Crawford Mantooth and Liz Crawford Sutton. (Plus it was a nice excuse to put up…

Tell Your Story.
Tell your story. You must tell it. You must share it. Why? It’s because the telling of your story has absolutely zero to do with you. But it has everything to do with someone out there who’s heart and soul are in desperate need of hearing it. You see when you tell your story of struggle to triumph, your depression to dynamo or from suicidal tendencies to empowering legacies… can heal someone. And in that service, you will also heal your own wounds. You will conquer your own fears and shred the shrouds of doubt. You will embrace your vision of a fulfilled life. So I want you to let…

The Sweet Smell of Bullshit!
Laugh at adversity. Just laugh your head off at it! In this episode of Inspire the Fire Fridays, I was pretty lit up with a ton of energy after having dealt with a variety of bullshit so far this week. Small things, big things and everything in between. So I wanted to share this raw level of emotion and self-control in order to teach you how to loooove the sweet smell of bullshit. How? By understanding that it is a weak enemy. A enemy that can only shift your focus, steal your energy and ignite your rage if YOU GIVE IT PERMISSION to stink up the joint! So I wanted…
