To Forgive And Ask Of…..
To Forgive And Ask Of…. This episode was a tough one as I have been in this position–To Ask Forgiveness from others that I’ve hurt or let down. And the flipside of forgiving others who’ve let me down whether they’ve asked of it or not. You see, we have this thing called EGO, that thing that is tied into ‘pride’ and is meant to protect our emotions. But yet, this thing that we feel is protecting us is actually bringing us down due to never releasing the toxic energy which needs to be let go in order to move forward. So, is it harnd to ‘forgive’ for you? Or is…

From The Dark Depths–To Taking Flight: Jaime Alexander Smith
From The Dark Depths–To Taking Flight: Jaime Alexander Smith A man can grab your attention by what he says. A man can grab your attention by his physical presence. A man can grab your attention by the displays of art and meaning of ‘his life’ ingrained upon his body through the different shades of ink. But to be a man who doesn’t grab attention, but “draws you in” by sharing his ‘shit storms’, is a whole different story. From The Dark Depths Of Life, Jaime has risen! He’s risen from the ashes of his Hell, for the reflection he sees in the mirror! He’s risen for the beautiful life which looks…

Constructing Myself
Constructing Myself These words hit home for me after watching the new Tony Robbins Documentary….I’m Not Your Guru! Think about it….how many of us are exactly who we want to be? I mean realistically, not to be Michael Jordan but knowing we don’t have the God Given skills or talents, but I mean to be excelling in all aspects of our lives. Are you physically where you want to be, considering the your body you’ve been given? Are you financially where you want to be, no matter the circumstances you were born under? How about your relationships, are you a contributor to the lives of others and do you have…

Life Is. You Are.
LIFE IS. YOU ARE. Welcome to another episode of Inspire the Fire Friday here on the Mindset Mountain Podcast. In this one I’m taking a deep dive into how we all can strive to remain an eternal student. Now you might be wondering why is today’s episode going up so late in the day? Well there is a wonderful reason for that as within these past 12 hours or so I’ve been reconnecting with myself as one such eternal student. But the thing is, it’s not what you might be thinking of when you focus on learning. You see last evening I reconnected with an old friend I hadn’t seen…

Your Philosophy: What Will Motivate You To Act?
Your Philosophy: What Will Motivate You To Act? Your Philosophy…..Your Reasons…..Your Why…..Will they motivate you to take action when you feel least motivated to act? In the book “The Slight Edge” by Jeff Olsen, the emphasis he found during his journey explain it perfect….. When we’re at the level of failure and struggle, we give it all we have to get to the point of survival. Then we get to that level, and we take our foot off the gas pedal or our routines, not realizing that the next level of success is where we want to actually get to. But that which we did to get to the level…

As I’ve personally experienced, there are always two sides, if not…

Independence
Independence Happy Fourth Of July, for those of you in the states! Through the barbecues, fireworks, and festivities…..what does this day represent to you? And how can we apply to our personal lives what this day represents? This past week, myself and Jason participated in Danny Page’s “7 Day Facebook Video Challenge”……. A challenge where we expose our truths…..and by that, I mean the unedited versions of ourselves. The lies we tell ourselves as well as the lies we tell others end up constricting us. They hinder us from the freedoms of who we really are as individuals. They keep us from being individuals with faults and not allowing ourselves…

Chances: You Never Know!
Chances: You Never Know! There are times in life where we come to the crossroads where action needs to be taken. There are times in our lives where all the study and preparation is great and all…..but it is all for not if there is no action to be taken.

Chances: meeting many individuals from various backgrounds that are all in search of the same thing…. “Meltdown In The Desert” brought many individuals together for…
