  • Ep. 97 - Daily Action
    Never underestimate the power that comes from the daily commitment to yourself. When you focus on the truth of your life you will be met with resistence. But when you focus on the negative you will find yourself stuck in a continual loop over and over again of negative stories and negative feedback. Once you get out of it, then you are free. You must be committed to taking the action on a daily basis.

  • Ep. 96 - The Cost of Waiting

    When you hide and cover yourself in lies, you push yourself further and further from the truth. It becomes very challenging to take any practical action because you are blinded to what is in front of you. The cost this has in your business isn't just financial. It's a marriage that comes crumbling down, a body that turns to sedation, and a disconnection from God that leaves you listening and beliving man instead of His guidance. Pretty soon you find yourself at the bottom of the pit starting all over again. Stop this from happening by taking action and start the investigational process in your life now.

  • Ep. 95 - The Biggest Lie I Told Myself
    One of the biggest lie I told myself growing up was that I wasn't good enough. Because I led with this story, I began to walk this path of making decisions that left me feeling small and playing small. When you are trapped in your stories you cannot see clearly. Once you finally begin to understand how you think and what is holding you back, then you can finally see clearly enough to take the action you know you must take. The majority of people today are stuck in lies and stuck without the truth that is preventing them from moving forward.

  • Ep. 94 - The Power of Questions
    When you don't have someone asking you the really hard questions, don't expect to get very far. You need to have someone challening your current way of thinking if you ever want to grow upon the ideas you have inside of your mind. This means setting aside your ego and being willing to investigate where you are strugging and what you need help with. On the other side of the Power of Questions is an unlimited resource of revelations and possibilities.

  • Ep. 93 - It's Good To Ask For Help
    It's very hard for farmers and ranchers to ask for help. Especially when it comes to the bank, understanding their numbers, tax planning, entity structure, or asset protection. Putting the crop in the ground and managing it is what we are good at. There is a massive gap between the farm and the business side and it's time to close that gap. The problem is that you don't know where to turn to get the help you need to be successful. That is the mission we are on in this community of other farmers and ranchers who understand each others pain.

  • Ep. 92 -I Lied On My Numbers
    When you know your business isn't profitable, you will begin to hide the truth to avoid any uncomfortable feelings. The problem is, this can occur for years and although you may sneak by for awhile, time eventually catches up. When I started my farm operation in the bottom of the ag economy, I lied and hid my numbers because I didn't want to know the truth. This left me in a constant panic and anxiety stricken roller coaster ride that left me frozen. It wasn't until I exposed everything to myself and my banker that I finally had a foundation to build something solid on.

  • Ep. 91 - Vengeance is Mine

    When you do others wrong, don’t be surprises when troubles come your way. Using other people for your own advantage and your benefit has a massive cost in the end. The problem is, you can’t run or hide from it. The more you hurt people to get what you want, you’ll go really far early on but then the time comes. God’s judgement doesn’t miss anyone.

  • Ep. 90 - Generational Shame
    Working with family on the farm is the hardest aspect of operating a family farm. When there is mistreatment and shame that is being thrown around with family members it can create an extremely difficult situation where you feel trapped. You feel like you cannot make a move for your own benefit so you settle for a life that is going to leave you with shame, guilt, and anxiety. You pass this on to your kids and your spouse. Until you are willing to walk away and build your own thing, you are always going to be tied to this abuse and neglect.

  • Ep. 88 - The Pain Has Purpose

    Every trial we go through always has a purpose. No matter how painful the experience is, there is always a gift on the other side. The problem is, we often cannot see through it and we will give up. When you chose to take a stand and submit and trust the process, you'll find the reason why you were required to endure the pain.
