• Are you special enough to gut it out with something you've never done?

[24:14 - 38:41] Own it. Model it. Demand it.

• Are you sitting in the front row? Focused on what's going on?
• Read books - look at people who are undergoing the most stress and learn from them

How hard is it for you to sit on a decision?

You know you need to make it, but you just don't know what to do.

It's SOOOOO dang hard for me to be in this place, especially if it's a BIG decision.

But I've learned that if I don't have peace about a decision, that's God telling me he doesn't want me to make it…yet.

He wants me to WAIT.

But when do you go?

Because this is another thing I've learned…

If you start moving in the direction of where you're NOT supposed to go, chances are you'll get that uneasy gut feeling.

It's the CRAZIEST thing I've ever experienced. But that's when I know I'm hearing from God…that, "hey, man, hold up here."

In today's 5-Minute Drill, I share my go-to strategy for when I'm just not sure what to do…it's something you can use when you don't have clarity and peace around a decision.

Just know this…

God doesn't want you confused. He wants you CLEAR.

LET'S GET IT!

[00:01 - 09:25] Opening Segment

• Story about a friend who seemed to be missing something when making a decision

[09:26 - 15:25] What's The Drill?

• Step 1 - Find a quiet place.

• Step 2 - Decide what you're going to focus on.

• Step 3 - Put the clarity you're seeking front and center, phrasing it as a question in the second-person and asking it out loud.

• Step 4 - Start your timer, close your eyes, connect with your body and breath. Then shift to your focal point.

• Step 5 - When the timer goes off, pause for a second.
• Got anything? Any more clarity? If yes, great.
• If not, plan another session during the day. And stay patient. WAIT FOR PEACE.

Trust is a scary thing sometimes.

Especially when it comes to following the advice from someone you trust.

There have been several instances where I followed someone else's advice and didn't ask why they gave the advice they gave…

Because I was in a pinch.

I didn't have "time" to ask why. I just needed to go.

I went all right - in some cases, it worked out well. In others, I fell into a hole and spent more time, money, and energy to get out.

In one case - I missed an opportunity to learn.

In the other case, I learned all right - the hard way.

KNOWLEDGE is power. It can prevent you from falling into the proverbial hole.

So that's why asking WHY is such a powerful tool. It's followed by knowledge.

In today's episode of Coming Up Clutch™️, I summarize the Top 3 nuggets from Monday's interview with Richie Schmock - advisor to some of the wealthiest people on the planet.

We get into the WHY question and so much more.

How many times have you heard about the little things?

Even the Bible has something to say about it: "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much…" (Luke 16:10)

Are you seeking abundance? Or lack?

I know which one I'm seeking, so that's why I've had to lock in on stewarding my time.

And one of the most overlooked and undervalued tools in sports and business these days is helping me be a great steward of my time…

It's called my calendar.

It may not seem like a big deal to you because, let's face it, it's just a calendar.

But what I've learned - your calendar holds the keys to better decisions. And each of those small decisions you make about how you spend your time adds up to make BIG difference in your performance and impact at home and in your career.

In today's 5-Minute Drill, I wrap up my 4-Part Series on creating and implementing a calendar that will help you come up clutch more often in the moments that matter…

So YOU can experience the abundant life.

LET'S GET IT!

How's that saying go?

"Show me your friends and I'll show you your future."

I can say from firsthand experience, there's so much truth to that.

For nearly four years, I was hanging around scarcity-minded people and in very toxic environments.

And it almost cost me my career, marriage, and life.

It's so easy to just go with the flow, thinking better days will come.

Until they don't.

In today's Recap, I summarize the Top 3 nuggets from Monday's interview with addiction and mental illness recovery expert and author, Dr. Robb Kelly.

This man has one of the greatest comeback stories I've ever heard - and he's made it his mission to help others write theirs.

If you want some practical insight on how to NOT fall over the common hurdles that pop up along your path to success, then lock in to this recap of my interview with Dr. Robb.

[00:01 - 11:13] Dr. Robb's BIG Three

Could you imagine going from collaborating with some of the greatest musicians in music history to homeless?

How could one possibly go from that high of a high to that low of a low?

That's part of Dr. Robb Kelly's story.

But here's the other part of his story - he overcame that dark period of his life and has become a sought-after addiction and mental illness recovery expert and the author of "Daddy, Daddy, Please Stop Drinking."

People have referred to him as "The Gordon Ramsay of the Addiction World."

In this episode, we talk about…

• What to do when you're feeling isolated and alone
• The illness that you MUST get rid of if you want to excel in life
• The necessary step to take if you want to break ANY addictions

…and so much more.

Don't miss out on today's conversation. This is exactly what you or someone you love needs to hear.

Dr. Robb gets raw and real and provides practical insight that you could use whether you have an addiction or not.

[00:03 - 08:53] Introducing Dr. Robb to the Show

• Dr. Robb's most embarrassing moment
• Dr. Robb's powerful of going from addiction to doing what he loves

[08:54 - 19:43] The Difference Between Alcoholics and Addicts and What It Means to You

• Alcoholics
• Our neural pathways are MOSTLY self-sabotage
• Alcoholism is a disease - it's a biochemical reaction in the brain
• Self-sabotage is part of alcoholism: Alcoholism sets in and then the mind becomes set on self-sabotage
• Alcoholism is a SYMPTOM of a root cause
• Addiction
• They're all born with an addictive personality

[19:44 - 24:54] What To Do When You're Feeling Isolated And Alone

• You're MEANT to go through that struggle…have to go through suffering to LEARN how to make your impact
• The quicker you know you're chosen to do certain work and it was your niche in life, the better I started living life myself, and enjoying life
• God will keep you there until you've passed the test
• Realize you are born with a 1 million dollar mind - stop hanging around 10 cent minds
• The only thing that's stopping you is YOU
• We're ALL empowered - STOP LISTENING to people's opinions and them telling you what you can't do

[24:55 - 28:25] When You're Stuck Listening To Other People's (Negative) Stories

• Realize your dream is still there
• The only people who see your worth are people who put you down
• Walk over and take that position - you don't beg for it, you just take it
• There's no such thing as failures - it's just MORE experience
• Find your higher power and let him remind you of how powerful you are
• Start ACTING the life you want today - dress accordingly, speak accordingly, act accordingly

[28:26 - 33:44] The Terminal Illness That You Must Get Rid Of If You Want To Excel In Life

• Defeating self-dialogue…it's DANGEROUS
• MUST Stack your subconscious brain with "I love you" 10x in the mirror - have to start lodging it in the subconscious so it gets to your prefrontal cortex
• Whenever you think something is impossible, through in an apostrophe => "I'm Possible"
• If you're feeling less than, go out and compliment someone else (dopamine releases when we compliment people)

[33:45 - 41:53] What It Takes To Break Addictions

• STOP isolating yourself!
• The tone of voice speaking to you in the bad moments is the same tone of voice that speaks in the good moments…so, it will convince you that you don't need anyone else

Imagine what would happen to your relationships and career if you adopted the same mindset of Yankees legend, Yogi Berra…

Think, believe, and act as if you're the best…

Ever wonder about what made some of the world's greatest sports legends tick? What REALLY happened behind the scenes with their lives and impact on their families?

I do…ALL the time.

Since Kobe Bryant's passing, I'm starting to see a lot more come out about him - his approach to his sport, his life, and his family.

It's inspiring.

So that's why I wanted to get my friend, Lindsay Berra, on the mic.

Her grandfather, Yogi Berra, didn't become a sports legend and icon just because of the way he played…

He became a legend because of the way he LIVED.

And the legacy he left with his family was inspiring to say the least.

Not only will Lindsay and I talk about what Yogi was like off the field, we're going to dig into the traits he instilled in her…

Because Lindsay is a trailblazer in her own right…

• 13 years at ESPN
• 5 years at MLB Network and MLB.com
• Writer for the Sports Business Journal, New York Times, Men's Health, and a ton more
• Dual-sport student-athlete at the University of North Carolina

In this episode, we talk about…

• What helped Yogi Berra come up in the clutch over and over again
• A common trend when it comes to high-achievers falling short of their ultimate best
• How to handle pressure, especially when deadlines are constant and expectations are high

And, of course…

• What it was like having a @yankees legend as your grandfather

If you want to learn from one of the greatest sports figures of all time, this is the interview for you!

[00:03 - 19:44] Introducing Lindsay to the show

• Lindsay's most embarrassing moment
• Getting into journalism
• How to fight through the stereotypes and assumptions about you

[19:45 - 25:28] What Helped Yogi Berra Come Up Clutch Over And Over Again

• Perspective
• Confidence in yourself (vs. arrogance)
• Yogi Berra believed he was the best at what he did without ever thinking that he was better than everyone else
• If you're going to be a leader, you need to be worthy of the respect of the people you're leading.
• When you're nice to people, you're just going to bring better people into your orbit

[25:29 - 29:59] The Common Trend When It Comes To Nutrition And High-Achievers Falling Short Of Their Ultimate Best

• Most athletes have a balanced, "in moderation" approach
• BUT NOTE TO ALL THE NON-PRO ATHLETES: Most pro athletes are outliers - stop trying to imitate EXACTLY what they do
• They're all incredibly dedicated to their routines - you do it REGARDLESS of how you feel

[30:00 - 31:59] How To Handle Pressure

• Be a list maker
• Making lists even works when you're hearing voices in your head before you go to bed - so when you wake up you can take up the conversation with those voices in the AM

[32:00 - 41:37] What It Was Like Growing Up With Yogi Berra As Your Grandfather

• Yogi didn't attach ANY emotion to a negative outcome

[41:38 - 48:06] Wrapping Up!

Busy is an excuse.

Took me 30+ years and a LOT of coaching to realize that.

For some reason, being busy has become a badge of honor.

In reality, it's a right of passage…to BURNOUT.

The ultra-successful aren't burned out…they're bold when it comes to what goes on their calendar. It's how they achieve BIG things.

In today's 5-Minute Drill, I share a strategy that will help you get more of what you want done and eliminate all the BS causing chaos on your calendar…

So YOU can achieve BIG things.

CHAOS leads to CRISIS…

CONTROL leads to CLUTCH.

I know which one you prefer, so let's get after it today.
