Babe Ruth, Usain Bolt, Tiger Woods, Michael Phelps, Tom Brady?

The argument could be endless - What about Michael Jordan?

1. Wear Nikes

2. Jordan only plays 36 holes

3. Jordan ONLY plays for money!

4. DO NOT putt Jordan for money!

In this show we look at Life Advice from "The Duke" John Wayne

Your character is your authentic self.

1. Money cannot buy happiness, but it is more comfortable to cry in a Mercedes than on a bicycle.

2. Forgive your enemy, but remember that bastard's name.

3. Help someone when they are in trouble and they will remember you when they are in trouble again.

4. Many people are alive only because it is illegal to shoot them.

5. Alcohol doesn't solve any problems. But then again, neither does milk.

Authenticity comes from doing what you LOVE.

Surfer Mentality. Enjoy every ride while it lasts.

The surfer knows that they don't have to ride every single wave that comes their way. They have the freedom and the power to choose which waves to take, and which waves to let pass by.

JT and John dive into the story about Jim Carrey writing himself a check and driving to Mulholland Dr. Listen to see why he wrote it and how much it was for. How big are your dreams and can you taste them?

Can you juggle your priorities...Decide which balls are glass and which are plastic.

You can't keep all your balls in the air all the time but that's fine.

JT and I discuss which to drop and which to keep in the air.

When there are so many balls in the air each day, you have to accept that some are going to drop. You can’t keep all the balls in the air all the time so you have to be intentional about which balls to drop, instead of it just happening.

Instead of focusing on the broad categories of work and family, you need to consider with more nuance which balls are glass, which are plastic, and focus on the glass ones.

"Bend, don't break" is a common phrase that means to be flexible and adaptable in the face of challenges or adversity, rather than rigid and inflexible. It implies that you can withstand the pressure or stress of difficult situations by being resilient and adjusting to the circumstances.

This phrase is often used in contexts such as sports, business, and personal relationships to encourage people to be patient, persistent, and open to change. It's a reminder to stay calm, maintain a positive attitude, and be willing to bend or compromise when necessary, rather than stubbornly holding on to a particular course of action.

In summary, "bend, don't break" is a powerful mindset that can help you navigate difficult times with greater ease and resilience, by being open to change and willing to adapt to new situations.
