If you've written even a couple of policies, you've likely come across a questionnaire or two. And if you don't understand what they're all about, a missed questionnaire can begin to unravel a policy application.

Here are some thoughts on what they are, how they work and when to take extra precautions to ensure you have everything a carrier might need to complete the application on your client. Along with a few thoughts about the end of the year. Sorry, I couldn't help it.

We're nearing the end of the year- time for a gut check with reality. Every load has the one thing, the domino, the single piece of straw that breaks the camel's back. One thing humans are great at is developing a tolerance for the burdens we carry. But what if your tolerance is doing you more harm than good? What if your ability to tolerate difficulties is your biggest enemy?

If you haven't yet, at some point you will face that point at which you just refuse to take it anymore. In this podcast, I share mine, as well as a few words of advice from what I've learned along the way about internal vs. external motivation. If your gut has been telling you there's more to life than what you're getting right now, please give this one listen. I poured my heart out for you.

Let's give some love to Foresters Financial, one of my favorite carriers. Listen in to learn about their robust stack of member benefits. If you're not talking about this in your homes, especially with younger families, you're doing your clients a disservice.

Here's a link to learn more about them: https://www.foresters.com/en/foresters-difference.

Gratitude is much more than just a nice concept. Gratitude is a way of evoking an emotion that you otherwise wouldn't feel and combine it with an intentional thought of your future, opening the door to new possibilities for success and achievement in your life.

Happy Thanksgiving Day, but even more, happy Gratitude Day. Take some time to be thankful for a few new things and being thankful in a new way that just may change your life.

We hope you are ALL amazingly well today and appreciate all your gifts, strengths and blessings that make you uniquely you!

Far too many people live their lives in fear. But it's not surprising, given the barrage of media influence coming in through our phones, computers, radio, friends and other influences. And fear's number one job is to hold us back. 

A much better way to live is in faith, the direct opposite of fear. Faith is the courage to step out into the unknown. Faith means you don't have all the answers, but you move forward anyway because activity is the one thing you can control.

This podcast outlines four steps you can take to move from a life driven by fear to one founded in faith.

Listen in...

Happy Friday! I hope you've had an awesome week. Some product teaching this week. This podcast is dedicated to teaching you about how a Universal Life product works. If you're like me, you start out getting term and whole, but the whole UL thing is a mystery. Hopefully, I can break this down for you- it's much easier to understand than you may think.

A UL is a great product to write, so I want to make sure all of you have it in your back pocket and go into appointments locked, loaded and ready to pull it out as needed.

At the core of what you do every day is your identity. It's who you are and what you believe and think about yourself. Society wants to form your identity for you. And if you let them, the news media and social media will do exactly that. I believe it's better for you to take control of it. In order to do that, I invite you to join the 99% and AVOID being among the 1%. Listen in and I'll explain.

They teach us a lot of great things in school, but one thing you likely didn't learn there was how to use the power of your mind to help get you where you want to go in life. This podcast is dedicated to harnessing the power of your mind to envision and live into a better future.

I think you'll enjoy it.

Do you realize who you truly are? I believe the biggest thing that keeps us from achieving our dreams and goals is how limited we think of ourselves. If we TRULY knew how much we were capable of, we would blow our own dang minds.

Hopefully, I can help blow your mind just a little.

Ever watched a toddler mess up a room? How glorious. For the toddler, not you. Haha. But messes can be fun. Why do we talk so negatively about them? While I'm not encouraging you to go make a mess on purpose, I do want to help shift your mindset to be OK with the messes you are bound to make in this business.

I've made quite a few myself (just ask Jason and Eric) and 100% of the time, we can clean them up. So, don't hold back- get out there. Boldly put yourself in front of people and let the fun begin. And you'll be surprised that you'll also write some business while you're going through your growing pains.
