Well, hello, Dream, Think, Do-er! I have another interview in my Hero Series. That's right. We're doing a bit of a hero series. These are folks that I want to bring to you because they've been a hero to me in some shape, way, or form. Today is definitely the case. Listen To The Podcast: My guest today is John Michael Morgan. John is a tell-it-like-it-is business strategist who helps entrepreneurs and leaders with creating the beliefs and the behaviors they need to achieve their biggest goals and dreams. His website says that he's best known for his energy and passion, but since I've known John for almost a decade, I'd actually say that he's known for his wisdom, his heart, his ability to bring truth, and his rather intimidating but yet awesome beard. Look him up.  You'll see what I'm talking about. He is an in-demand speaker who is hilarious but, at the same time, he brings truth bombs and strategies that stick, so he's giving talks around the world. So put on your seat belts. This is going to be fun! He's a trusted friend of mine and a true wise mentor for me so, I wanted to bring him back to DREAM THINK DO.  That's right. It's his second appearance on "DTD", so let's get to it. John, welcome back, buddy. Thank you so much for having me, Mike. I'm excited. This is just fun. The whole reason I have a podcast is to get to talk with cool people.  We're almost at our 200th episode but you first were on DREAM THINK DO at episode 18. I mean it was just as the podcast was becoming an adult, turning 18, so, we're back at it. Yeah, I'm honored to be on twice. Kind of a long time in between, but… Well, I said, "Man, we'll bring you back and see if we can get it right this time." So, I do recommend to everyone, go back and listen to our initial conversation, which would be at MitchMatthews.com\018, episode 18. John, you do a lot of coaching and consulting with entrepreneurs and leaders, really high level stuff and I'm looking forward to really diving into some of the strategies you help people with. But I also really want to let dream, think, doers know your background. Because although now, you are all about creating the right beliefs and being intentional with your thinking, it hasn't always been that way for you. Give us a little picture of you as a youth. Have you always had the optimistic, intentional mindset, all of those things? I certainly did not. In fact, my youth was full of depression and anxiety and overcoming a lot of battles. But while I overcame them, what was left was damaged identity, a damaged self-esteem and things like that. So, even as a young adult, while I wasn't depressed or really experiencing anxiety in any of those things, I was also just drifting, just going through the motions, trying college, various professions. Just going through all of those kind of things and not ever actually saying, "What do I want and how do I get that?" Then when I started to get a sense of what I wanted, I was still getting in my own way. How I got to where I am today has been a lifelong journey of the more I grow and improve on the inside, the more all of my outer circumstances and situations also grow and improve. I always appreciate that you're really willing to be raw and authentic about that journey. So fast-forward a bit and you write a game changing book about branding, which was great of course. But your audiences, your coaching clients really started to demand more from the leadership stuff and the mindset stuff, because they were like, "Okay, your branding stuff's awesome, but I'm learning just as much, if not more, about how do I lead, how do I live, all of that." So, I wanted to have you back on, because last time we really talked a lot of branding. This time, I want to talk about, not just leadership, but leading yourself. Taking yourself and your career, all of it to the next level. What do you think? What are some of the things that get in the wa...
