Kobe Bryant Retires…And That’s OK.
Kobe Bryant Retires…and that’s OK. So by now most of you have seen the news on ESPN or CNN or something other network…Kobe Bryant is retiring after this season. He will no longer be rocking the purple and gold of a Los Angeles Laker. After attempting to come back from another tough injury..his body can no longer recover and bounce back like in his youth. So Kobe Bryant….a Laker legend….one of the best in the history of basketball…is walking away. And in doing so…I feel he is displaying a mastery of mindset that very few Hall of Fame caliber athletes ever embrace. Too often when Father Time comes tick tock…

Vain …..Or Ulterior Motives?
Am I VAIN? Or do I have ulterior motives? In this episode, hear how the pics I post of my workout journey on Facebook and Instagram are far from being VAIN…… Actually, I force myself to do so, for various reasons….I hate to have my picture taken, actually. On here, my daughter verifies that, lol And last Friday, the answer to my actions became clearer to me in why I am doing so, as one of my ‘best friends’ was ‘DEAD’…….for a minimum of four minutes! His heart stopped. Now why do I do this…. You, nor I want to invest our time or money into someone we know…

The Power Of Silence
Though “words” have an impact……”silence” can echo an eternity. At times we tend to say too much, or we spend more time trying to find words to express our emotions……when the ‘power of silence’ speaks volumes. I find myself falling into the habit of using big words, or trying to find many words to share in a podcast, the copy of post, or even to define the meaning of an Instagram post….. When all that is needed……is SILENCE So need I say more….or write more? How about I just let you listen in on my thoughts of such a powerful expression we should use more often? Enjoy….. ~~Eddie http://traffic.libsyn.com/mindsetmountain/56_The_Power_Of_Silence.mp3Podcast: Play…

Overcoming Odds
Yes, this is the team that was a lil ‘too stupid to know any better’….. (NOT REALLY),Ha Ha……actually we were a group of young men who chose to not give up, overcoming the odds A team who chose to believe in something greater than ourselves A team who was comprised of some young men who had their asses handed to them in prior years, and chose to flip the switch. And this pic, which I’ve shared before is a pic of Atlanta, ID….a small town on the verge of becoming a town hit hard by a catastrophic wildfire. The crew I had become part of chose to not listen to…

Courage….On The Mindset Mtn Podcast
Courage surrounds us….. Courage lies within us….. When we choose to make a change in our lives that will bring about a true happiness, we usually have to step outside of ourselves and who we are, to do so. Courage in a transformation isn’t the end result of a journey…..courage is making the decision to create the change when everything seems to tell you there is no point in doing so.
