This episode is all about you and why we need you to Shine your Light!

So, what does it mean to Shine Your Light?

I believe it means to walk in your truth and be unapologetic about it.

When you shine, you have the power to influence others.  You have the power to change the environment around you and to make a difference.

 

Key Point of today's message - Do not ever dim your light to accommodate anyone, but instead you shine and let others adjust their eyes to your brightness.

 

Excerpt - ..."When you DECIDE to be your true authentic self and shine you are using your power.  You will influence people and sway them into action and not the other way around. You will influence people to become better versions of themselves, you give them hope and perspective because you are a compelling force."

 

As always, be encouraged and blessings abound!

When I first saw the Austin Hatch story on TV, I knew I had to write a podcast episode about it.  I was so touched by Austin's outlook on life and his belief in himself, that I wanted to share it with you.

Who is Austin Hatch?

Austin Hatch is 2 x plane crash survivor, who faced tremendous loss at an early age.  Austin lost his mother, brother and sister in a plane crash when he was 8 years old and then his father an step-mother in a 2nd plane crash when he was 16.  Austin survived the 2nd plane crash but with near-fatal injuries, so severe that the doctors believe that Austin would be bedridden for the rest of his life.

What makes Austin's story so inspirational and what can we learn from it?

Key point - Believe in Yourself

Austin's belief was so strong that he worked himself out of a wheelchair to fulfill his life-long dream to play basketball for the University of Michigan.

 

Here is an excerpt from the episode:

Because in spite of everything that he had been through, 2 plane crashes, losing his family, Austin was determined to not only go forward to make the best out of his life, he was determined to fulfill his dream.

At one time or another everyone has an "Everest" in their lives.  An "Everest" is a life-long dream or goal that is so big (like the mountain, at least in your mind), it seems impossible to achieve.  However, do not despair because even though you may have failed at fulfilling your dream in the past, today is a new day and you can still conquer that mountain.  The key is to change the way you think and get rid of any and all doubt.  Discover your power by doing the following:

Key Point #1 - Believe you can do it (most critical of all).

Key Point #2 - Don't worry about "How" you are going to do it (at first).

Key Point #3 - Focus on doing one thing at a time and doing it well.

 

Here is an excerpt from the show:

Everyone has their own reason why they take on the mountain, maybe for the thrill or it is a life-long dream but I believe the core of each reason is - because it is possible. 

They know that there is something inside them greater, much greater than the monstrous Everest.  That somewhere inside lies the ability to push beyond any self-defined limitations.    

“The Message” - No matter how big your dream, YOU CAN DO IT!

How would you rate your commitment level to your dream?  

We all want to live our dreams but what separates the achievers from the dreamers is their level of dedication.  In this episode, we explore the mindset of a person who is determined to rise to the top by looking at how Olympic level athletes train.

Here is an excerpt from the show:

Olympic level athletes are no different than you and I.  But they take the pursuit of their dream to a whole different level.  An Olympian has caught hold of their dream, locked it in and have dedicated their lives to training for that moment when they will be called an Olympian.

 

The Message - You have everything it takes to be the best at what you want to do in life.

Do you live in or outside of the crowd?  

In this episode, we explore why you should forget what the crowd is doing and embrace your uniqueness.

 

Here is an excerpt from the show:

Be bold and put on your own shoes and walk in them.  And when you start walking, Take the road less traveled and avoid the crowded highway.  And don’t worry about the crowd because the truth is that everyone else secretly desires to have that same freedom that you have because you go against the grain, but in truth, they are not brave enough to BE themselves.

What do you do when you lose something important to you?  How do you pick up the pieces?

In this episode, we explore how to shift your perspective after life changes in a way that you don't want and how to move on with hope in your heart.

Here is an excerpt from the message:

In your own situation of loss, if you trust God and let Him take you where He wants you to go.  He will put you on the path to your destiny and place you, where you never thought was possible.  He will heal you.  He will give you beauty for ashes and grow you up and out of the old situation and grow you into your true and real self.
