My take on how God has affected and changed my entire life, how He continues to shape my future, and a bit more on my struggles, my transformation, and my life.

Welcome to the Grow to AMaasing Podcast!

On this episode I welcome a longtime friend of mine, someone I've long admired for his ability to lead, to run successful businesses, and to win at the challenges of life. Don and I go way back to the early days of the company Postalsoft in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

Don is a former software company executive, entrepreneur, professional four-wheeler racer (including world champion), and has done all that while building and maintaining a great family. 

I hope you enjoy our discussion and deep dive into Don's journey, and some of our shared journey together.

Take a deep dive into one of the most influential books in my library, Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin.

This book is all about leadership and personal responsibility, and how to take ownership of every facet of your life. To say it's changed my outlook on life would be a gross understatement.

You can find Extreme Ownership on Amazon or any local bookstore. Also check out the Jocko Podcast (www.jockopodcast.com) or find Jocko and Leif on the social media platform of your choice.

I hope you enjoy my take on the book and a discussion of how it's influenced me. Hopefully you get something out of it also. Subscribe and review please! I want to know what you think!

Welcome to the Grow to AMaasing Podcast!

This episode is an introduction to your host, Tony Maas, and provides a glimpse into the types of topics we'll cover on the podcast. 

I'm not an expert podcaster or self-help guru, I'm a regular guy just trying to make a difference in my life and in the life of anyone listening to this. I hope you'll come back and take a listen as I start to dive deep into conversations with friends, colleagues, mentors, and inspirational figures in my life. I'll dive deep into books and other mediums that have made a big difference to me.

Again, welcome to the podcast! You can also find video version of this podcast on www.youtube.com/growtoamaasing. Visit my Instagram page at @growtoamaasing as well! I'm hoping to build a community of people there, helping each other to grow and be better every day in their own lives.

Welcome to the Grow to AMaasing Podcast!!!

Here's a little meet-the-host video to give you a taste of what's coming with the podcast. I hope you enjoy the topics I bring, and find the content rewarding as we move through people and resources I've used to try to be just a little bit amazing in my own life.

Yes, the title - AMaasing - is a play on my last name - Maas. We pronounce ours so it rhymes with amazing, and while I'm not going to claim I've got all the right answers, I'm hoping to have at least one or two. Hence the title. And the word 'grow' implies that it's a never-ending journey.

I've fought some battles and had some amazing people come into my life over the years.  I hope you find something in there to help you grow to be a little more amazing in your own life.
