A Higher State of Mind
Tuesday Nov 08, 2022
Tuesday Nov 08, 2022
Today's episode is a conversation pulled from the talk from Jon Gordon did recently on having a HIGHER state of mind.
Here are some of the high points:
What are you allowing your mind to fixate on? Are you focused on what is frustrating around you or on what you are grateful for around you?
We have to make a conscious decision every single day (sometimes moment by moment) to focus on the positive things happening in our lives rather than on any negativity happening around us because it can be SO easy to find ourselves wallowing in the negativity.
Your mindset is a SPIRITUAL condition - a place of consciousness inside of you. If you had a choice, would you rather have a positive experience or a negative experience? You DO have a choice!
You are in a battle for your mind... each day you have to take your thoughts captive against things like doubt, distortion and discouragement.

How To Make 2023 Your Best Year Ever!
Tuesday Nov 01, 2022
Tuesday Nov 01, 2022
Today's episode is a conversation about everything I learned while spending a few days with Ed Mylett and several other incredible people last week!
Here are some of the high points:
The first thing you need to realize about the potential for next year being amazing... is that you need to start taking steps TODAY! Don't wait until January 1st to begin moving your dreams forward. If you are able to finish 2022 well, it will be your launchpad into a powerful year in 2023.
What are you going to do TODAY that will set you up for success tomorrow?
Successful people believe they deserve what they are going after?
Do you have the right intentions set?
Are you associating with the right people who are building and pushing you toward the vision you have for your life? Take an inventory of the people you have surrounded yourself with to determine if they are growing and if they are helping YOU to grow and progress.
One way to build the people around you is to look for people's giftedness and call it out! "Let me tell you about you..."
Intend to be AMAZING. Do you set out to be the BEST version of yourself each and every day?

How To CHANGE Your Mindset Around Money
Tuesday Oct 11, 2022
Tuesday Oct 11, 2022
Today's episode is in response to a conversation with Jenna Kutcher about money mindset.
Here are some of the high points:
HOW do you look at money? Do you see it as a tool... or as something you MUST possess...
Money is like oxygen - you don't think about it when you have it. But when you don't, you start to panic.
How do you CHANGE a toxic money mindset?
You have to trust yourself and the value that you bring! Most leaders battle the temptation to believe their success was a fluke... not a legitimate accomplishment.
Start giving back with your time and resources now even if you don't have much yet! Create your habit of generosity now! BECAUSE a scarcity mindset will absolutely limit your potential.
Be mindful about your language with money! How you speak about resources will shape your expectations and your experience.

Leadership Lessons From Bob Iger’s Journey At Disney
Tuesday Sep 20, 2022
Tuesday Sep 20, 2022
Today's episode is in response to a conversation with Bob Iger about his experience leading the Disney company!
Here are some of the high points:
One of the biggest things you have to understand as a leader is that you have to be decent to people.
You've heard it said that "nice guys finish last" ... but the truth is that good people to take good care of other people will finish first.
Build trust and create strong relationships!
As the leader, you can show your team what it looks like to take great care of other people!
You need to understand that taking big risks is the only way to have a SHOT at having big wins! The most dangerous thing you can do is stay stationary without taking action!
Most people don't take decisive action because they don't fully believe in what they are doing every day!
We each need to rely on our instincts AND do our homework. Both are needed! Instinct is developed over time through experience.

The Science of Leveraging A Growth Mindset
Wednesday Sep 14, 2022
Wednesday Sep 14, 2022
Today's episode is in response to a talk from Dr. Heidi Grant about how we can use a growth mindset to rapidly transform our thinking and our lives!!
Here are some of the high points:
What leads to success?
The single most powerful factor in achieving goals comes down to your mindset!
The difference between having a fixed mindset and a growth mindset...
The fixed mindset prevents you from looking at ANY other options. You have a stance and you hold it to be true even if it's wrong! In this mindset, the point of what you're doing is to PROVE your ability. You will always compare yourself to others if you live in this mindset. When things are harder, you immediately begin to doubt your ability.
How do we change this to shift to a GROWTH mindset?
A growth mindset is not about proving your ability but IMPROVING your ability. We are trying to develop the skills that we have rather than trying to demonstrate how GOOD we are at them.
We have to shift our focus from comparing with others to comparing with the past version of ourselves.
Someone with a growth mindset encourages conversations!
Of all the predictors of success, this growth mindset is the most important piece!
When you have a growth mindset, you see problems as a chance to learn rather than as something that is just painful!

Becoming A Leader Who Has It!
Monday Sep 05, 2022
Monday Sep 05, 2022
Today's episode is a response to the second part of a teaching from Craig Groeschel about how we can become a leader who "has it!"
Here are some of the high points:
When you're a leader, you have a responsibility to raise up the next wave of leaders... which will only happen if you truly empower people.
Who are those new emerging leaders you can equip and inspire?
Your true impact is what happens when you're not there!
If you are overly controlling, you will become the limiting factor in your team's growth.

Lead Like it MATTERS!
Tuesday Aug 23, 2022
Tuesday Aug 23, 2022
Today's episode is in response to a teaching from Craig Groeschel about how each of us can become a leader who lives each day on purpose by leading the people around us well.
Here are some of the high points:
We can SEE the teams, leaders and groups of people that "have it." So often though, we have a difficult time identifying what that "it" is.
There is a leadership paradox of contradictory leadership qualities that create a powerful synergy.
Greatness is always found in the extremes.
When you look at leaders, they have huge differences in their behavior that when put together create powerful results!
8 Leadership Paradoxes that great leaders possess:
- Confident & Humble
- Driven & Healthy
- Focused & Flexible
- Optimistic & Realistic
- Direct & Kind
- Empowering & Controlling
- Urgent & Patient
- Frugal w/ an abundant mindset

Surprising Solutions For Overthinking
Wednesday Aug 17, 2022
Wednesday Aug 17, 2022
Today's episode is in response to a talk from John Acuff about how there IS actually a practical solution to overthinking.
Here are some of the high points:
You are at the level you are at currently because of what you KNOW, DO and THINK.
Goals are the fastest path between where you are today and where you want to go.
If you don't take the time to figure out where you're going, you won't end up where your heart desires to land.
SO many of us struggle with overthinking in many areas of our life. It can be one of the most expensive bad habits we allow into our lives as leaders.
Out of 10,000 leaders, the study found that 99.5% of leaders acknowledged that they overthink areas of their responsibility every single week.
The soundtrack you tell yourself is what dictates your actions. These are the repetitive things you tell yourself. Great thoughts lead to great actions and great actions lead to great results.

Take The Step - Go After ONE MORE!
Tuesday Aug 02, 2022
Tuesday Aug 02, 2022
Today's episode is in response to a talk from Eric Thomas about how just ONE MORE can make all the difference!
Here are some of the high points:
Why do you need more money? Eric's answer to this question will challenge you. He said the reason you want to make money is so you can go out and make MORE of a difference for God's kingdom.
Money is like oxygen... you don't think about it unless you don't have it.
There is a war going on -- we are called to combat the bad things going on with funds by using resources to do massive amounts of GOOD!
First, you take care of yourself... then you help care for those around you... and eventually you can impact people far outside your personal circle.
Somebody else looked at you as THEIR one more. It's now our turn to find the next ONE who needs an opportunity! Take time to figure out what your ONE more is. What is that one more thing you need to do consistently that will create momentum and results that will help you accomplish the goals you are trying to accomplish.
Find out what your PASSION is!

Lead Beyond Your Age
Wednesday Jul 20, 2022
Wednesday Jul 20, 2022
Today's episode is in response to a conversation between Craig Groeschel and Sadie Robertson Huff about how each of us can lead beyond our age.
Here are some of the high points:
You are a leader because you have INFLUENCE... whether you have thousands of followers or whether you have three people in your home you have proximity every single day. The question isn't whether you're a leader... the question is WHERE are you leading people to?
Two of the most important aspects of being a leader are being humble and always being willing to learn. Go from failure to failure as fast as you can so that you can LEARN quickly and grow into success.
You're not going to have it all together but you have to START at some point! Find the right people and START... but then you must continue and walk with staying power.
