    Out Of The Ashes Of Existence: Danny Page   No Outlets.,…False Successes….God’s Letdown….Lazy….Compulsive….Lies….Self-Centered….Rage….And the list goes on and on, right?! You see, there are times in our lives where the above words hit us where it hurts. They hit us when we choose to tell ourselves the lies that “we are perfect and in control”, as we hide from our truths. It is then we find ourselves living a ‘life of existence’. We hide and turn from the mirrors, eventually becoming that child that hides in the dark closet with our security blanket, waiting to be saved from an unknown light!     When we choose to release the ‘power’ we falsely…

    Listen Openly, Respond Truthfully

    Speak your truth.  That seems like such a simple and straight forward statement. Easy to do right?  Well…not usually lol. I wanted to share with you on this episode of Tactical Tuesday the success strategies of listening openly and responding truthfully.  For it is in these raw and real actions that freedom is achieved. You will hear me describe how I was put in a position just yesterday to apply this tactic for myself in a very intense way.  Eddie Aguilar and myself were interviewing our new amazing friend Danny Page.  Towards the end of the interview, something happened. I had certainly been listening openly, but all of a sudden…

    Sides of the Same Coin

      Sides of the Same Coin “You can’t have all the athletic talent and abilities, without the acne”~~Garrett J. White There are aspects of us which we try to hide from others…..yet we feel some animosity towards those who openly share and reveal both sides of the the same coin We judge those who share the good and ‘maybe not so good’ openly Personally, I’d rather know both sides of the coin, than see that there is something being hidden, which slithers as a snake in the grass disguising itself as something harmless The beauty of social media is we can all portray ourselves as something special…..Father of the year;…

    You Do You!

    You Do You!  Stop worrying and wondering what everyone else around you is doing.  This YOUR JOURNEY, so do it the way you want to that works for your life. These three simple and yet powerful words make up one of my all time favorite perspectives given by Gary Vaynerchuk.  He is always unapologetic with his opinions and yet always follows up with the qualifier..YOU DO YOU.

    Circle Of Influences

    Circle Of Influences In this episode I share a story I got from the book “He-Motions: Even Strong Men Struggle” written by T.D. Jakes….. Sometimes we find ourselves as little kids waiting for someone to take a hammer and chisel to carve out steps upon our ‘boulders of life’ to help us from one end of the boulder to the other side But we find ourselves waiting for certain individuals to carve out steps of appreciation or support, not realizing that those individuals are the actual boulders that are hindering us on our paths All the while, ignoring those who’ve taken the time and energy to do that which we…
