Inspiration comes from the oddest of places.  For me this week, it has come from a gas pump at a gas station.  As you can see by the picture, there is streaming video on each of the pumps.  It got me to thinking that we truly have become so dependent upon input and entertainment, that the mere thought of three minutes of silence would be too much.  So just how often do we go out of our way to make sure every moment is filled with some sort of noise?  And how often do we go out of our way to seek out silence?  My query this week is looking into just that… seeking out time each day to reflect on how we are showing up, how the day is going, and what we need to do to stay the course of our original intention.  I hope this week has you contemplating how to carve out a little more time with nothing more than you… and the sound of your breath.

68: Life Lessons From a Gas Station

What does it take to be a Game Changer? These interviews will bring you the stories of their challenges, their successes and most importantly their “why” behind what they do. It is my hope that you are inspired by people who are just like you, who are making a difference. You will see that it doesn’t take a million dollars, quitting your job, or knowing Bill Gates in order to contribute in a significant way. You can do amazing things from where you are right now. And if there are beliefs that are holding you back, hopefully you will see that some of these people had doubts at one time as well. We will see what it takes to push through those fears and confidently swim in your own direction.
This is The Game Changer Podcast.

Well, here we are at the start of the first full week of the new year! How are the new resolutions, the new ways of thinking, and the new habits going? If you are still dabbling your toes in the pool of change, and unsure if carrot juice, a yoga class, or a 5K will make the biggest difference… consider this: Anything you would like to see improvement on, whether that is your health, your environment, the company you keep, energy, etc. it all starts in the same place: Remove what doesn’t belong. Take a look at this in all areas of life, and see what space you can free up so you have lots of room for abundance, joy, and the next exciting adventure!

136: It’s time to get rid of the “clutter” that is holding you back.

Well, here we are at the start of the first full week of the new year! How are the new resolutions, the new ways of thinking, and the new habits going?

If you are still dabbling your toes in the pool of change, and unsure if carrot juice, a yoga class, or a 5K will make the biggest difference… consider this:

Anything you would like to see improvement on, whether that is your health, your environment, the company you keep, energy, etc. it all starts in the same place: Remove what doesn’t belong.

Before we can have anything new in our life, we must clear the space for it. Think of it this way according to the principles of Feng Shui, you ALWAYS start with removing clutter. You don’t start with better lighting, as all that would do is allow you to see all the mess better. We must first remove the "stuff" that doesn't belong.

And before you order that next wheatgrass shot, what are you eating or drinking that you know you aren't doing you one bit of good? What if you just removed one thing for the month of January before you concerned yourself with what you need to add to your diet?

Take a look at this in all areas of life, and see what space you can free up so you have lots of room for abundance, joy, and the next exciting adventure!

134: It’s time to get rid of the “clutter” that is holding you back.

Happy New Year! Before you commit to your 2020 goals, make sure that you aren't limiting yourself by what you think is impossible. In this episode, I discuss the impact of Roger Bannister who on May 6th, 1954 was the first person in history to break the 4-minute mile barrier. While this was certainly history-making, what followed changed the way we look goal setting and what is possible for us all. You see, 46 days later Roger's record was broken by John Landy. And in the decades that have followed, beating the goal of running a 4-minute mile has been done more than a thousand times. Runners didn't miraculously start training better, nor did they find faster shoes... they simply BELIEVED they could do it because it had been done, so they now knew it was possible. What goal have you not gone after, because it's your version of the "impossible 4-minute mile"? Take a second look at what you think is just out of reach and reconsider what is possible. By summoning up our own internal Roger Bannister, we have the ability to change our entire reality. Start visualizing, by thinking AND feeling what it will be like to accomplish your greatest goal. Roger knew that if he did this every day, breaking the 4-minute mile would undoubtedly happen. We all have this ability. Let's make 2020 the year of unlimited possibility! Cheers to making the 20's your best year and decade ever! Michelle Dutro Thanks for Listening and Subscribing!

133: What is your “4 minute mile” goal for 2020?

Hello and almost Happy New Year! I thought long and hard about how I wanted this kick-off show to go. Better said, how I want this next decade and chapter to go. One thing that's certain, is that I will be transparent about the good and bad, and do everything in my power to help you to believe that anything is possible. For that to happen we need to challenge what we believe to be true, what holds us back from pursuing our dreams, and the stories we hold on to about ourselves and others. As we move forward I will focus more on people's struggles and hurdles they had to overcome to get where they are now so we can all see we are more alike than we realize. And that a worthy road, is rarely an easy one. For this next decade to be a success, we are going to have to leave some useless baggage at the door. I hope you join me in this journey and allow in what's possible and to let go of beliefs that never served us and likely weren't real in the first place. I look forward to sharing the unlimited possibilities of the future with you - as we roar into the '20's together! With gratitude for you still being here!

132: Wow! That was one long hiatus!

Happy Mother’s Day! I am blessed to have an amazing mom, and I am the mom of two incredible daughters.  And as much as I look forward to this day each year, there has not been a time where I really had to reevaluate what it means to be a “great mom” as I have this week. In this episode I have the opportunity to read an article from a newspaper written about my mother, that had me realizing just how cool she is.  I don’t think “cool” is a word most of use to describe our parents, but she is absolutely, amazingly cool.  Further, I have spent time realizing that while my daughters will always be my daughters, they also are grown up now.  Thus I don’t get the time with them I once did, which at times is hard.  (Which you will hear, it was hard for me just to get through this episode.) If you are fortunate enough to get to spend Mother’s Day with your mom or your children… make this day the most special one yet.  Be present with the people you love, and recognize just how incredibly amazing they really are.
