Habit Based Lifestyle

No matter if we want to admit it, most of us carry some type of fear.  Many times it comes from childhood where we’re frequently taught that failure is not an option.  The problem with this is it creates fear and it breeds procrastination.  Instead of taking action, we remain idle and create excuses.  Here’s the truth; fear is just tool to protect us and keep us safe.  Fortunately or unfortunately, remaining safe has never helped anyone become successful in any area of their life.  The good news is that fear of failure is nothing but a fantasy.  Listen to find out how to move beyond it and find everything you’ve been looking for.    To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Do you get distracted when you get home from work?  After hunting all day at work, it can be hard to be focused on being present as a husband and father when you get home.  As fathers we set the tone when we come home.  If we continue to respond to calls, emails, and text messages how can we get mad when our kids continue to be absorbed with video games, phones, tv, iPads, and so on?  Set the example and see the results.  Today’s episode is filled with strategy on how to be completely present for your family when you    To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Stories are created in relationships due to a lack of communication.  Without clear communication, it’s easy to create false exceptions in any situation.  This isn’t limited to romantic relationships.  As a business owner I’ve created stories in my head about things that needed to be done.  I’ve then proceeded to get upset about things not getting accomplished even though it was me who failed to communicate with my employees.  How can you avoid communication problems in your life?  Listen to find out.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Do you have a habit of focusing on your reasons?  It seems that so many of us have the default mindset of focusing on why we can’t do something, thus defeating ourselves before we even start.  Often we place the opinions of others ahead of our own.  When working with a client, we discovered that he was focused on the reasons why he couldn’t do something rather than the work leading to his desired results. Listen to find out how we helped him switch his mindset to accomplish his goals and how you can do the same.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Many of us are focused on some goal so far down the road that we don’t concentrate on what we need to do today to accomplish it. One of the easiest ways to find your way and create power in your life is by setting a daily intention. Creating an intention for what you want to achieve day in and day out will help push you toward your ultimate goal.  Today I explain how to set a daily intention and explain how I’ve used this technique to move mountains in my life.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Most of us think that in order to make massive change, we must take immediate massive action.  While that might work for some, The Two Minute drill is what I find to be the most effective effective tool in building habits to create change (see EP14).  Today I explain why starting at a simple 2:00 minutes of activity and multiplying it over the course of several weeks creates the ultimate equation for success.  Tune in to learn why starting small is key to creating a new you.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Have you ever felt like you don't have the resources to be successful?  In all likelihood, you’re suffering from a Habit of Scarcity.  Scarcity mindset is a killer if you let it in your life.  It tells you you aren’t enough.  It puts you in survival mode. It close you off from seeing and wanting more.  So how do we get ourselves out of the Habit of Scarcity?  Begin to look at the small things in life and understand that scarcity is something that we create in our own mind.  Listen to find out how I’ve been able to use this technique to conquer scarcity in my own life.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Have you ever felt alone?  Have you ever felt unloved? Sometimes we need to remind ourselves of where we’ve been and the work we’ve done to get to where we’re at.  Seven years after starting a business, the relationship between my wife and I just wasn’t where it needed to be.  We weren’t having sex, we weren’t communicating very well, and at times I felt like I was simply just an ATM.  Most of us likely wrote some type of business plan to company off the ground, but there’s no relationship that helps you to communicate with your significant other.  Today I provide the steps on how I was able to get out of this pit and how you can do the same.  WARNING:  this is simple, but it is far from easy.    To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Do you have a habit of judging yourself each and everyday?  Is it warranted or is it overly critical?  In my personal experience this has been particularly challenging.  Dating back to high school and my use of anabolic steroids, it seems I’ve always had some type of issue with my body.  To put it bluntly, when I looked in the mirror I didn’t like what I saw.  Listen to hear how I’ve dealt with this challenge, and how it flared back up again recently.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Smiling is contagious.  Whether you pay attention or not, a smile will lift your spirits.  It’s even scientifically proven that it takes more effort and muscles to produce a frown than it does a smile.  Thanks to a dose of reality from my wife and my public speaking coach, I realized I’m one of those people who tends to unintentionally default to a frown.  Like anything else, I’ve created a system to turn smiling into a habit and lift my energy at the same time.  Tune in to find out how you can do the same.   To share questions or comments, feel free to reach out at [email protected]
