    • [00:30] Introduction
    • [11:00] It’s definitely a lifestyle approach. The way I like to describe it to a lot of my clients is kind of like a pyramid. We all remember the old food pyramid where the bottom was bread and carbs and towards the top was maybe candy, but there were very little fats in there very little protein sources.
    • [20:00] Eating cholesterol does not raise your cholesterol. It goes back to the whole lifestyle picture. I eat whole eggs every single day for breakfast. I eat red meat, I eat a lot of foods that have cholesterol in it, but my cholesterol levels are very, very low. When we combine things like processed foods with processed sugars, and then lots of inflammatory fats like industrial seed oils, vegetable oils, all of those combined in one, those are really the enemies that we need to be aware of.
    • [31:00] I already was doing nutrition coaching. I was raised more on an athletic side, so I was helping with weight loss, I was helping with building muscle athletic performance. So I was already doing that. I’ve always enjoyed working with people and helping other people. But there’s something just different about helping other people improve their quality of life. Going from where they are, I’m miserable, I can’t eat anything and to be able to like eat something without feeling miserable after it. That just feels awesome to be able to help people to that extent. So I love helping people get six-pack abs and all that if that’s what they want to do. But just to truly be able to improve people’s quality of life, that’s a whole other level for me.
    • [42:00] A cow that’s fed grains is going to have much higher rates of omega-six fats compared to omega threes when a cow has been grass-fed. It’ll still have some omega sixes. It’s not going to have nearly the extent of a grain-fed cow. So omega sixes for people who don’t know, are pro-inflammatory fatty acids. Omega threes are anti-inflammatory. So we do need both in the body. But with typical Standard American Diet aka SAD Diet, we tend to get way more of the omega sixes that are pro-inflammatory. We are not getting enough of the omega threes that are anti-inflammatory. So we have a lot of people suffering from chronic inflammation and cholesterol issues. We are not saying that everybody needs to go outsource their cow. But they do need to pay attention, i.e. where’s your food coming from? Read the food labels, it blows my mind when people will just purchase “foods” and they did even look at what’s in the food that they’re eating.
    • [52:00] I can hand someone over the perfect nutrition plan and be like, if you follow this, you will get great results, you’ll be fit, you’ll feel great. But there’s often a lot more barriers than that. A lot of it goes back to mindset and motivation. Lack of confidence contributes to why can’t we follow it, it’s not always that black and white. I actually end up doing a lot more mindset counseling as well to in addition to the nutrition side of things under my Functional Medicine practices.
    • [54:55] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    “You’re Worth It!”

    I would say kind of going back to a lot of the things we’ve talked about is just your health. Honestly, it is well if your health is the foundation for everything and not just the way you look. And it affects everything, it affects your business, it’s going to affect your relationships with your family, it’s going to affect your confidence. If you want to reach new levels of success, and you want to really be at the top of your game with your business with your life. You need to be looking at the Foundation, you need to be looking at our diet, or exercise or hydration levels. That’s going to transpose to all areas of your life. So I would encourage people to just start with the basics, looking at their lifestyle, and building that up and going from there. So building the self-discipline and also just knowing you are enough and knowing “you’re worth it” too because I think a lot of people struggle with self-doubt, low confidence, and building up like what Andy Frisella even talks about a lot in his Podcast. Do the difficult things, the things you don’t want to do, do the things you say you’re going to do. Not only is it going to help you achieve your goals, but you’re going to build up a reputation with yourself and you’re going to be able to achieve the things that you want to. Build up that confidence!

  • 292: Go For No Inspired Rejection Mission
    Embrace the adventures of rejection in business and in life:

    Leo Quinn is a (former cowardly) marketing consultant from Upstate NY who decided in the Summer of 2019 to overcome his fear and seek massive rejection, inspired by the book “Go For No”, co-authored by former podcast guest, Andrea Waltz. At the time of this recording, he’s heard NO 536 times on his way to A Summer of A Thousand NOs. You can see where he is today at AdventuresInRejection.com

    Quote: “I can achieve EVERY goal and reach EVERY dream by simply hearing NO more often.” – Andrea Waltz

     

    Top 3 Hot Points:
    1. Go For No
    2. Embracing Rejection for Success
    3. Carnivore Diet

     

    On This Episode You Will Hear:
    • [00:30] Introduction
    • [10:00] So that was my first No, and that was easy. No, I sort of knew the guy. After that. I approach I’ve got a marketing company as well, I can do a lot for companies, but I decided I wanted something quick and easy with a ton of prospects. Because I knew that I would have to make a lot of phone calls to talk to the right person.
    • [23:00] I saw a thing on the internet yesterday, a guy had got a bunch of plastic pigeons. He taped this message to the plastic pigeon and mailed it. Just as the pigeon. No box, no bag, he just mailed the pigeon. So you know he got the appointment that he was looking for. So now I’m on the hunt for life-size plastic pigeons that I will attach mail to and then I will definitely follow up.
    • [30:00] So encourage them to give you a no and I think so because all salespeople have wasted millions of hours on the maybe’s.
    • [40:00] Most of the NO’s of these 539 have been on the phone. Okay, I’ve conquered my fear of the phone, I really need to get more in-person NO’s. I want to get back into the lumpy mail and then follow up.
    • [50:00] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    Don’t, don’t speak for someone. Let them give you the NO. As an example, I was listening to a podcast, the podcaster and his guests were talking about the sorry state of cold emails. How they hate it, they get a ton of it, and they can’t stand it. If I had heard that before I’d sent that guy a cold email, I probably would have said, hey, he’s not gonna have me on. But I was on his podcast as a result of a cold email. So don’t accept the NO, don’t give somebody a NO, let them give it to you, or give them the chance to give you the NO.

    The final thing I’ll leave with is all the research I’ve done. I’ve never found a story of someone who took on a legitimate rejection challenge and had a poor result. So take on the rejection challenge, whatever it is in your business 100 rejections, 1000, 10,000, do it, stick with it, and I bet you’re gonna have a positive result by the end.

    On This Episode You Will Hear:
    • [00:30] Introduction
    • [01:45] Endorsed by Dr. Christiane Northrup
    • [10:00] So rather than focus on what someone else is doing or not doing, let me show up more for my life. One of the first things I did is just affirm, I show up for my life. Actually giving yourself a little bit of credit is important. I think some of us who have done some of the self-focused, self-development work, maybe forget that we actually have put more focus on that. We forget to reward ourselves for that.
    • [21:30] It’s a tool, mindset runs strongly throughout the book. I put the book on Amazon and I got a bunch of reviews back. As I was reading through the reviews, I learned more about what the book was about, or how it affected people. There was a common thread of how they felt like the author was holding my hand and leading me through the practices, and it was easily digestible.
    • [33:00] This is free and you can call it like a preamp to the book, but it’s something that you can digest immediately. 12 practices, they are not all about food, a handful of them are and they’re fun. They’re out of the box and these are ways that you can get started ASAP.
    • [41:30] You get to do this for the rest of your life. That’s the path that you want to go down and there are lots of GI digestive issues from that metformin. That’s the biggest complaint.
    • [49:46] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    Our thoughts and our beliefs invoke our actions. Our actions are what create results. So look at the results you have, look at the results you don’t have and then backtrack to your actions, what thoughts and what beliefs created those actions or left you stagnant? This is where all work, all practices begin. It’s right here and it’s not an intellectual concept. It’s a daily practice. We can think of it in terms of affirmations.

  • 290: Wilderness 101 Adventures, FATDOC Review, and Pop-Tarts Suck!
    Pop-Tarts suck, Wilderness 101 is no joke, and the FATDOC film review with Brian Strauser:

    Brian Strauser of the Strauser Project returns to discuss his Wilderness 101 race training and his review of the new release of the FATDOC aka FAT: a documentary film release from Vinnie Tortorich, Peter Pardini, and Serena Scott Thomas.

    The Strauser Project is stepping up for the younger generation and others, blazing out a trail for others to follow. Brian is a guy with tremendous heart and wears his emotions on his sleeve… along with a few tattoos too!

    Quote: Pop-Tarts Suck - Brian Strauser

     

    Top 3 Hot Points:
    1. Wilderness 101 aka the W101 Race is Insane!
    2. Watch the FAT: a documentary film aka FATDOC
    3. Pop-Tarts Suck!

    On This Episode You Will Hear:
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"00:30\"] Introduction
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"10:00\"] You can\'t even explain this to people that haven\'t experienced the Wilderness 101 and actually have done it or been there. It was amazing the amount of climbing just to get up to the top of that day.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"20:00\"] I think a Specialized fat bike came in and it was like 13 hours or there\'s like 12 hours and 50 some minutes. He comes rolling in on his fat bike and that\'s just insanity!
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"30:00\"] Most people that don\'t race or haven\'t put themselves through this type of thing, don\'t understand that getting sweaty is a challenge. What people don\'t understand is when you\'re wet and your equipment is rubbing back and forth on your legs, you might as well have 100 grit sandpaper. You\'ll get Rashed beyond belief or bleed in places just like runners have happened, where their nipples are bleeding just from their shirt rubbing.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"40:00\"] The government and these people are supposed to be watching after us and taking care of us. Like everything else, it\'s more about the money and all the bullshit. Ever since I had this little girl, as a baby and watching her grow up, I now get more involved with the worrying about the types of stuff that I\'m putting in her mouth.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"50:00\"] So much of it goes back to diet, that\'s what fuels us, it\'s what makes us what we are. If you\'re not putting the right things in and instead of putting chemicals and all of the sprays and the stuff that goes into manufactured foods.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"54:00\"] It\'s hard to wrap your brain around it and think that some guy is trying to screw you over by selling me a pop-tart, well that can\'t be that bad. Well, it is that bad, Pop-Tarts Suck!
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"56:00\"] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    The biggest thing I would say to anybody is to keep an open mind. This has been an awesome ride ever since I met you a number of years ago. I think it\'s been three to four years ago now. Ever since I went out and suffered in the woods and it was a little bit of comfort there too. While I was standing underneath that bridge, watching you pull up in the middle of the W101 and knowing that I just put you through that pain and suffering. Part of that was pretty exciting. But the one thing that all of this stuff has kind of done for me is open my eyes to just being more open to different things. You know, I never was into this type of stuff. I\'ve now read more books in the past four years than I probably read in the past 40.

    It\'s been a blast. You know, anybody watching in this stuff, check out this FATDOC, it was a great story. I told my wife as soon as I watched it and said something to her. I don\'t care if I gotta put my family in a car, go to Staten Island to visit with one of her family members, I\'ll put it on in my truck so nobody can get away from it. They\'re just gonna listen to it because it\'s amazing information that\'s out there now. Somebody can definitely get something from it. It\'s not stuff that I would have been following in the past and it\'s definitely things that I\'ve been opened up to more recently. It\'s just been a great ride to learn all this stuff.

    3. Filming is Storytelling

    On This Episode You Will Hear:
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"00:30\"] Introduction
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"10:30\"] People have this misconception of people don\'t go into business with the business. They go into business with the people behind the business. The engineers, the receptionist, the CEO, people work with people. This is something I\'ve learned through scaling, this is a hard part. Part of the reason why sales go away is that the buyer doesn\'t trust you.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"20:00\"] When I first started, we tried to be number one at everything. But it\'s literally impossible. Our goal now is to be number one, in one thing, and that is the corporate marketing realm. That is the storytelling authentic videos that no one else can do.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"30:00\"] I\'m happy that you brought that up. I think a lot of people that are starting out, they\'re afraid to be vulnerable or be like, hey, I\'m on vacation with my mom. I haven\'t seen her in a year. I\'m going to get that done in a month. Just be upfront.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"40:00\"] It\'s about every personalized experience. Every time we get a client and/or a really good lead, I spend the money to send them a custom mug. Because every morning when they wake up, they\'ll see Corporate Filming. Well, I don\'t need them right now. That\'s the key when most people say no, it\'s just a no now. It\'s not a no forever.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"50:00\"] What you just said was one of the techniques, listening. One of the psychological triggers is, you don\'t want them to remember the negative, you want to remember the positive. Think about the things you did together. Then don\'t ask for anything.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"01:08:00\"] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    I would say the one thing I want to leave people with, honestly, is the power of story, the power of emotion. Nothing resonates with somebody more than hearing someone\'s story, hearing the passion for what they do.

    2. Grow Your Sales, Customers, and Clients
    3. Sell Your Successful Company

     

    [spp-tweet tweet=\"Today\'s latest business podcast is to help you #Automate #Grow and #Sell your business! @livethefuel \"]

     

    On This Episode You Will Hear:
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"00:30\"] Introduction
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"14:30\"] Let that FUEL you to implement, automate, systemize, and do whatever you need to do to kind of realize that WHY again. It is so important in business!
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"25:50\"] The amazing thing was actually while we were building the company up, I kind of had my dad as an earpiece in the one side. He was asking, what are you doing? Why are you building this so big? He was always worried about things starting to get out of control. That\'s why systems get put in place to keep it under control. That\'s the key.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"30:21\"] Are sales pros with athletic history better performers? It\'s interesting because in our interview questions for our technicians, that\'s something that we really vetted with people. We asked them, did you ever play any competitive sports? That level of discipline that\'s involved with that, showing up, doing the hard thing, putting in the work, etc. It\'s about not being afraid of the hard work and that repetitive nature of it was really critical to our technician role.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"42:00\"] Frankly, it all comes down to relationships. This is on the side of the owners, the entrepreneurs, the employers and the employees.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"50:40\"] I think it all comes down just getting massive value and to provide value first. I\'ve seen too many times when people say well, how many times is a follow up too much?
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"01:03:13\"] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    I\'d say just get started. Just do it and execute. Too often people say, oh, yeah, I\'m going to do that after they listen to this podcast. I don\'t know how many episodes they\'ve listened to. But if you\'re one of those guys or gals that have listened to all these episodes, and you\'re still kind of in the same rut, or same position you\'re in right now... Stop lying to yourself, I say don\'t lie, don\'t lack in execution, just do it! If you if you\'re like, oh, yeah man, I gotta set aside the time to do the system. You don\'t, the next time that you\'re actually doing a process, or doing a thing, just video document it. Give a fellow employee your cell phone and say, hey, record me saying this while I\'m training you, or hit record on the screen software. We\'re using screen recording software and you just record it. Just start executing and getting it done. Because unless you take that first step, it just won\'t happen. The biggest gap that I see with entrepreneurs is between knowing what they need to do and executing. So just do it, just execute.

  • 287: Best Damn Badass Shovels in the World, Kickstarter, and DMOS
    Crowdfunding the new Delta Shovel with Badass Shovels, Susan Pieper of DMOS Collective:

    DMOS began as a passion project back home in Wyoming after watching my son break shovel after shovel trying to build kicker jumps in our backyard. Many years and countless hard lessons later, we’ve managed to get enough things right to have a serious impact on people, professions and industries that we respect the hell out of.

    So as we continue to grow and understand our own potential every day, we appreciate you taking the time to get to know us a little more also.

    On This Episode You Will Hear:
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"00:30\"] Introduction
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"05:25\"] Do you just get tired of snapping shovels which I\'ve done for years?
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"08:55\"] DMOS got started by building the perfect what we call the kicker tool. We got our start in snow really innovating from plastic snow shovels into purpose-built aircraft, aluminum, badass tools that were perfect for building a kicker and then your shovel the OG Alpha really was a foray into a broader market, which was people aren\'t don\'t just need a kicker tool, they need a driveway shovel, and then they need a truck shovel.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"10:15\"] You just have to prove upon yourself your own inventions before your competitors do and DMOS, so far, has no real competition in what we do well. Which is, we make the best hands down shovels that are purpose-built for I would say any vehicle-based work because of the telescoping into locking shaft.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"20:00\"] I was actually a navigator last year with a driver and DMOS was a sponsor of the Rebelle but the vehicle was not quite fully DMOS. So this year, we are fully DMOS, it\'s Team DMOS.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"30:00\"] Then I realized, wait a minute, she\'s redoing the old school military stuff. So that is why we really created the Delta Shovel tool.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"41:00\"] So my son went to the Free World Junior Freeride World Tour in Kappl, Austria. He\'s 17 now, so this is the senior year. I was super proud of him at the Beartooth Basin because I saw him really charge it at the beginning of the run, which is off the cornice, he backed up about 20 feet, and he charged it.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"56:00\"] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    I think it is the single all-encompassing thought is. Do something that matters and do it well!

    [spp-tweet tweet=\"A Sports Psychology Tip is to Celebrate and Reflect on your Anniversaries. @DrMeganCannon \"]

     

    On This Episode You Will Hear:
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"00:30\"] Introduction
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"02:00\"] Five year anniversary of SYR CrossFit, now F13 Performance.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"04:00\"] Coming up on almost three years of the podcast as an anniversary reflection.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"05:00\"] I did a Facebook Live the other day to celebrate that my Fuel Foundations non-profit was approved.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"11:35\"] New anniversaries like Scott\'s collapsed lung and now his wedding.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"12:37\"] Fourth to the fifth anniversary of Dr. Megan working with the swim program of Emmaus High School.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"13:00\"] A reflection on Dr. Megan\'s third year in the Poconos for a Summer Camp Run.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"22:00\"] Fat-adapted training celebrations and reflection by Scott.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"28:00\"] Being aware of reminding ourselves to pause and celebrate these anniversaries and look back. Where was your training two years ago vs your awareness of that today? You might not call it an anniversary, but rather call it a reflection.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"30:57\"] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    Final Thoughts are, give yourself a permission to pause and that\'s not just in looking back and goalsetting you know. Obviously, a really big part of what we\'ve been talking about is to also give yourself a chance to pause and just slow down. Recognize the influence of culture and our particular culture that pushes. Look at how much your self-worth linked to what you\'re doing in a day. It\'s okay to pause, it\'s okay to go to the beach, it\'s okay to take time to not only look back but to just give yourself time to rejuvenate, refresh, and slow down. This is so you can sustain being productive, or sustain your work, or sustain your level of whatever type of productivity longer.

    • [spp-timestamp time=\"00:30\"] Introduction
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"11:10\"] I was a senior in high school and I was never a good student. Just me and school just never got along. I didn\'t like that format for learning. I thought, whatever it is, let\'s just get this over with and so I can move on and start working. It\'s kinda how I felt about it.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"22:00\"] There are certain roles, certain jobs within the infrastructure of the economy, that you need to be extremely educated for.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"32:00\"] Most of these companies aren\'t using something as tied into the database network, they\'re only on the more advanced systems. So the most basic GPS system is going to literally just be a three wire connection to the vehicle, so that you get a hard wire, a battery connection, a chassis ground, and an ignition connection. So basically, the unit is going to know when a key is on and off.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"40:00\"] I\'ll give you some more of the story. So at 21 years of age I worked a couple years for a highend audio shop on the island, did some real fancy stuff. I was the cocky 21 year old who knew more than my boss. He wasn\'t allowing me to do the kind of work that I knew I could do. I quit with $300 cash in my pocket and I went and started my own business. I\'ve done that. So 21 years old, 300 bucks to my name, and I just made it happen.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"58:14\"] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    There\'s a couple of key areas of life that you need to focus on every day, in order to be successful. I don\'t believe in necessarily a balanced lifestyle or work-life balance. When you\'re focusing on that book, other areas of your life are going to suffer because you\'re just so focused on that.

    But at the same point in time, you can\'t neglect those other areas for too long. That\'s one of the things that I did with my very first business. I neglected my health and I worked 90-100 hour weeks, on my feet all day long. I wound up getting tremendously overweight. I\'m six foot four, I\'m currently 275 pounds. At the close of that business, I was I think just under 300 pounds.

    I\'m thrilled for 275 but I\'m in the gym six days a week, doing my thing. What I\'m saying is you have to focus on yourself. I think you have to prioritize yourself before the business, as ass-backward as that may sound to some people.

  • 284: Power to QUIT Quickly, The Rock, Arnold, and Crunch Time Quitting
    Succeed through the power of Quitting today, so let\'s Quit Quickly!:

    Dr. Stanley G. Robertson grew up in a project building on the south side of Chicago. He pleaded temporary insanity and joined the Marine Corps; then trained as a lawyer and earned a doctorate in business. Jack Canfield, the creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul, calls Dr. Stan the coolest person he knows; and predicts that Dr. Stan’s new book Quit will be a bestseller.

    Dr. Stan has come to be known as “the quit doctor” because of his relentless determination to heal the world of the stigma and shame associated with the concept of quitting. He is an author, coach, and speaker.

    A professional football player quit during halftime. A military commander quit his troops to be with his family. People who quit are often ridiculed and shamed because we are a hyper-performance-based society where “quit” is a dirty word.

    But without the ability to quit, it is impossible to achieve success. No one knows this better than Dr. Stan. He quit the Marine Corps and earned a law degree, and quit being a thief and earned a doctorate.

    There are countless situations of everyday individuals who struggle over the decision to quit because of the emotional stigma associated with the concept.

    But the notion that “winners never quit” is a myth. The truth is that winners quit all the time. Michael Jordan quit baseball and won a 3-peat; Thomas Jefferson quit Great Britain and started America; The Rock quit wrestling and became an action star; Arnold Schwarzenegger quit being an action star and became a governor.

    Dr. Stan has come to be known as “the quit doctor” because of his relentless determination to heal the world of the stigma and shame associated with the concept of quitting. He is an author, coach, and speaker.

     

    Top 4 Hot Points - Stan\'s Steps to Q.U.I.T.:
    1. Quit Quickly
    2. Understand the Negative Emotions
    3. Initiate New Goals
    4. Transform Your Behavior

    On This Episode You Will Hear:
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"00:30\"] Introduction
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"10:00\"] She said I quit. Okay, so quitting is good. This is the point. Quitting is a good thing. Quitting frees you, it\'s how we\'re locked into the cycle. Why should you continue swimming? This is not a priority. This is not at the top of my list, so I\'m, pushing it down on the list.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"20:00\"] My point is that now if she finally gave up the relationship, she gave up the business. She was overweight. She had been fat-shamed and all this stuff, not just by her but in general, others. Then she lost all the weight after she left him for good, to rebuild herself.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"30:00\"] If you do a lot of things and you quit a lot of things, the more things you quit, the faster you\'re going to get to where you\'re trying to go. So people who are okay with quitting, people who are okay with making mistakes, they\'re going to get there a lot faster than the person who says I can\'t make this mistake.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"40:00\"] What are you going to do next? How do you get from point A to point B? There is a process that you go through, there are some steps that you should engage in. There are four steps to help you through this.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"50:00\"] Those guys recognize that if they are going to be successful, they need to know when to give up something and reposition themselves. Quit if you\'re doing it because you just don\'t like the thing and you don\'t enjoy it anymore. Quit, if you\'re doing it because you\'re not good at it. If you\'re doing it because life circumstances dictate that you do something different, then great, quit. These are all good reasons to give up things.
    • [spp-timestamp time=\"01:02:30\"] Final Words

     

    Final Words:

    There\'s one thing and it relates to this concept of quitting and that is that one of the things that I encourage people to do is create for themselves a quick list. So a quick list is just something that you can commit to. It is for where things go that you can give up in your life that are no longer serving you. For example, you just decide that these don\'t work for me or you don\'t want to do it anymore, it\'s a dead end. If it\'s not giving you any good return for your investment, whatever the issue is, create this list and call it your quit list. Take that list to identify the areas in your life where you need to purge and then figure out what things you can give up to make yourself better so that you can get to your goals and your success a lot faster.
