  • The Art of Confident Communication: The Two Big O’s - Obstacles vs. Opportunities Episode 17
    Hello, my friend, James 'Fantastik' Hepler with you on the Monetize Your Voice Podcast. Hope you're having yourolutely bodacious beautiful day, wherever you happen to be. We have been discussing many different aspects of life. We talk about TACC - The Art of Confident Communication. From my perspective, I feel it is an absolute cornerstone of living.
    A fulfilled life, a fun-filled life, a fun, and easy life. And to help you along that way, you can go to Mr. fantastic. live. Mr. fantastic. live. And we'll send you five free tips to up-leveling your communication skills. You will be blessed greatly if you choose to focus on becoming a confident communicator, one that can speak with complete competence, clarity, control, and comfort.
    In our last episode, we were talking about having a fantastic, fascinating adventure today. We're gonna take a look again at how we focus on and position different aspects of life. So many of my friends, associates, and acquaintances, particularly the acquaintances. So often look at life through the lens of frustration and obstacles.
    Pothole speed bumps. So on and so forth. As I think I've told you before I classify myself as a realistic optimist, not an optimistic, real. I'm a realistic optimist. So I know I have experienced over many decades, the roller coaster aspects of the journey called life. I also have learned that the more often I keep looking at it through the lens of positivity.
    The easier it is to negotiate the potholes and speed bumps of life. So today we're gonna take a look at the two big OS. Are they obstacles or are they opportunities to grow? This is always the interesting aspect of our positioning. Again,
    as much as it hurts me to say the statement that the vast majority of people that I know look at them as obstacles, the challenges of life are. I'm speaking about. Most people look at the challenges of life as obstacles instead of opportunities to grow. So I would ask that you give serious consideration to a
    blessing yourself. We're switching the lenses through which you look at life through, which you look at life. I get a daily motivational inspirational message for a  gentleman.
    Out of Texas and his name happens to be Ralph Marston, M a R S T O N. And I would like to suggest that you give serious consideration to signing up for his daily motivator. He is one of the most reasonable dudes that I know $15 a year is just amazing. I wanna share this portion of this particular day's message from him.
    These are the last two paragraphs. Is there anything you wish you had done in the past hour? The past week or past few months now is your chance to stop wishing and start doing the next hour of your life begins. Now. Live it as. It's the most important one yet, because it is, and that's an extended way of saying one of Mr.
    Fantastic quotes enjoy every miraculous, magical minute. While you're in it and that's where we need to be.  In scriptures, we are taught that. We are supposed to live in the present. We were designed to live in the present in our humanness. We can only handle 24 hours segments at a time.
    So I would like to encourage you to change the lenses through which you view life. If you put a lot of time and energy into the three very terrible Musketeers where he doubts and fears, I call 'em the three terrible troublesome. Muske tears worry, a doubt in fear, they Rob us of so much energy. So let's switch our lenses from obstacles to opportunities, Grow's such a great opportunity for me to be here with you to share some thoughts for you to think about speaking of which.
    If you would like to have five free tips to up-leveling your communication skills simply long owned at Mr. fantastic. live. So what are going to be your opportunities to grow today? Ask yourself that. Another way to look at it is who can I bless today along this walk of life? Who can I give a smile to a wave, a pack pat on the back a good morning or good afternoon, or it's so great to see you?

  • The Art of Confident Communication: The Art of Laser Listening Episode 16
    Hello, my friend, James Fantastik on the Monetize Your Voice Podcast. Thank you so very much for joining us.  It is a privilege and a pleasure to be able to be with you and to share some thoughts that hopefully will be helpful. In your daily activity of this game called life. Now the last several podcasts, we were serious.
    We were talking about white noise.  it's the morning time when I'm cutting this. So sometimes my jaws don't work in the best manner that they ought to work. Y so anyhow, we were talking about white noise and. We spent three different podcasts looking at many different aspects of probably the largest intruder in what we call tall, T and L the art of listening.
    So if you haven't heard the three previous podcasts, I would. Highly suggest that you go back and listen to 'em they're short, and to the point, and we're gonna continue this, the art of comfort of communication is so crucial.  And that's our program tack the art of confident communication.
    It is.    I wish I  really could tell you from my heart of hearts, this amazing freedom that comes, the more that we hone our skills and all the other subcategories that go into building a confident communicator. So if you haven't heard those last three. Go back and check 'em out. And while we're talking about checking things out, if you go to mrfantastik.live that's mrfantastik.live, we will send you five free tips to up-leveling your communication skills. I suggest that you give yourself that gift. So moving on. As I had mentioned earlier here, we've been talking about white noise. So the day I thought we kinda lighten up a little bit there, buddy.
    Yeah. And we're gonna look at a thing called. Fantastic. Fascinating adventure. Everything that we do in life has to do with what is ours. Emotional mental spin on things. And today's topic of a fantastic, fascinating adventure viewing life. From that perspective. Now only a few weeks before I cut this, I was flying and of course, because I've had seven back operations.
    I need to stretch from time to time and I've always had a great relationship with the stewards they're now called  I don't know what they're called but anyhow      I always work with the folks that are in that particular business because they have a challenging job.
    And basically, I try to make everything fun and easy.  so I'm in the back cabin chatting with the ladies and I'm handing out my business cards.  And so the one steward who says to me, oh you are in the communication business, you have the monetize, your voice PO podcast. So how are you doing? And she wanted to know what was our listenership and our following.
    And I said we are trying. Break the DaVinci code of the internet marketing maze and her eyes got so big. They were like saucers. And she said, oh my, that sounds fascinating. And I about fell on my rear end and I thought to myself, wow, that's interesting. And I said to her right away  I'd been looking at it through the lenses of its.
    Frustrating. However, I like your lens of fascinating a lot better. So I communicated this with my staff and  I said let's just and we all started laughing and yeah. Yeah. Let's look at this as fascinating. Adventure. And then, of course, I like to add our other very descriptive adjective.
    Fantastic.  I like to consider myself Mr. Fantastic. Fantastic dot go. So the point I'm trying to make here, folks are. How do we position where we're going every moment of every day. If we do choose to look at life from a positive perspective.     Whoa. It becomes absolutely.
    Fantastic and fate.  So think about that. Okay. Whatever you're doing, whatever the challenge is  I'm on the road again, as the great song by Willie Nelson goes and  I'm in, I'm actually in the human maintenance business that is. Maintaining this vehicle called my body and the longer I go, and of course the more wear and tear there is with the vehicle, the more necessary for maintenance or as I like to call it maintenance so anyhow while

  • The Art of Confident Communication: The Depth of Our Desire to Serve Episode 15
    Hello, my friend, James 'Fantastik' Hepler here with you on the Monetize Your Voice Podcast. Thanks so much for being by my side. It is a great day to be alive and to be able to serve. I feel the cornerstone of everything we do in life is. What is the depth of our desire to serve so in the arena of confident communications, or as we like to call it here at jamesfantastik.com - The Art of Confident Communication.
    This is a cornerstone for every aspect of ours. And we've been talking about removing the white noise in our life. They can be called interruptions, distractions, frustrations, or obstacles. It doesn't matter what the label is that we choose to put on this white noise. Is there much of it we can eliminate or control or at least diminish the amount of its intrusion into our lives?
    Now, before I get into more of this white noise challenge, I like to tell you that you can go to mrfantastik.live and we'll send you five tips to uplevel your communication skills. It will be your first step of getting to the point of just really loving to communicate. That's mrfantastik.live So let's get back to this white noise stuff.
    I'm not sure how many people really understand the cost just in dollars. It is immense. It goes into the hundreds of billions of dollars because of miscommunication and misunderstandings.  misperception on and on and on, but on top of that economic toll and, uh, of course, I don't know if you want to call it, unfortunately, so much of life is counted in regards or the, in the form of dollar bills, the form of money, whatever currency you use.
    However, I feel there is a much, much, much greater cost to not being able to communicate with confidence, clarity, control, and comfort. And that is the emotional cost that will cost the setbacks that happen to all of us in every phase of our life. When we have these communication interruptions, along with that white noise that we're talking about, this interrupts the art of laser listening.
    I think that most people only think about one aspect of communication and that is the speaking part and yes, that's what starts the communication. However, what's, really, really important. And what is the greatest challenge? At least I feel anyhow and that. The art of laser listening, as you are listening to me today, whatever you're doing, many of you are driving your commuting.
    The question is, how is your laser listening, coming along? What are you picking up? What are you comprehending? About white noise. What are you comprehending? And what action are you doing to make those changes? We can hear so many different ideas and suggestions and they are meaningless. They are worthless without me.
    Implementation and application that is the juice. In words, my dad always said it is the waving lotion that makes the difference without in a, with wishful thinking, daydreaming, whatever
    connotation you would like to apply to it. So I'm asking you now, have you taken action implementation and application of becoming a laser listener? Not,  not just winning for your turn to speak, but comprehending what the person is saying and how. It will affect your life. That's the key, how will it affect your life, the impact on your life, and the impact that your life has on all the other people around you.
    And when we choose to say, okay, I'm gonna pay attention to what's going on. To cut down on all the frustration, the obstacles, because we're only listening for half a year. So I ask that you look at that diligently to improve your life. Now there may become a time, you know, where you want to tune out.
    and that's fine. Uh, I think maybe what you may want to consider doing is just telling the people around you that you are tuning out, or if you're gonna tune out, finds a place where you can have solitude. And as I mentioned in, uh, the previous edition, a lot of people need to know around. I feel they're scared of quietness and in one aspect, I guess that's another form of white noise tha

  • The Art of Confident Communication: Eliminating White Noise Episode 14
    Hello, my friend, James, fantastic helper here with you on another gorgeous day, another wonderful day for which to be thankful. And I am very thankful that you are here with me on the monetize, your voice podcast. In our last podcast, we were identifying white noise in the process of The Art of Confident Communications or T.A.C.C - that is our flagship course at jamesfantastik.com
    And many other areas are involved with T.A.C.C. We were addressing white noise. And before we get into that in today's episode, I'd like to remind you that we do have a gift for you simply by going to mrfantastik.live - we will send you 5free tips for up-leveling your communication skills.
    I suggest that you do yourself a favor and give yourself that freebie and take the first step. To communicate confidently with clarity, with control and comfort, and just bring that much more joy into your own life and into all the lives of the people that you touch daily. So let's get back to white noise.
    Now I asked you in the previous podcast to identify....  your top five, most frustrating white noise interference. And if you did that, I would be surprised if you are not now being able to identify them a whole lot easier. It could be picking up the telephone every time it rings the cell phone. We have a lot of folks in our society that really can't live without their cell phone.
    It's a real addiction.  I had my ringer turned off the vast majority of times and  I check my phone normally at least every hour UN unless I am in communication with someone I know. I have an important return call. I then will turn my ringer on, but turn that ringer off. Oh my gosh. The amount of energy that is saved because of these white noise interferences, annoyances, whatever you wish you would like to label them, distract us.
    And that takes. So that simple step of turning off the ringer, unless  I'm expecting a phone call has saved a lot of energy for me to put into other vital areas. Another thing that I have initiated, and that is I have turned off my notifications. I think of all the apps and everything that I have on the phone and the tablet and on the desktop.
     I think I only have one of the applications that have. The noise maker.    the ding, ding, whatever it is. And of course, when I turn that off on my phone, turn the ringer off on my phone. It, those ding dings don't interrupt me either. And it has been amazing.   Improvement in the quality of my life.
    Now another aspect of white noise is really, truly the atmosphere that we're
    in.  Some people need to have some type of music for lack of a better term.  In the background, a lot of people don't like quietness. I would like to suggest that you seriously think about playing classical music softly in the background. If you want to have some background ambiance, because unlike other tunes that are.
    Done in the inter instrumental version, most classical music, at least my level of understanding classical music. I don't know the theme or and a lot of classical music does not contain words with it. So what it does it helps me. To concentrate on the project that I'm working on at that particular time.
     As we are speaking right now that gives you a perfect example.  I happen to be traveling on an interstate and I have no music playing or anything else. I am simply.  enjoying the drive and enjoying communicating with you here on the monetize, your voice podcast.  Now, this is a road that I have driven for a long time.
    so it is, I'm not endangering myself or anyone else while this is taking place. So this. Item of white noise,
    the smallest amount of those types of interruptions disconnect us from what we want to do. So I suggest that when you are doing creative work, please limit those external interferences. You may want to put a sign on your office door that you are in creative mode for the next. X number of minutes or the next hour or two.
    And you'll be back in the communication side of things at such a certain time

  • Accept No Limits Ep.13
    Yes, we are going to get this show on the road. Absolutely. No two ways about it. Welcome back, Mr. Fantastik.
    Right by your side. And this is going to be the first in a series of 30 podcasts from the book day by day with James Allen written by Vic Johnson. James Allen wrote the book as a man thinketh. If you have not put that into your reading library highly, highly suggest that you do that as quickly as you possibly can.
    A very short book that has mountains, a wonderful one. Great meat that will feed your mind fantastically. So we're going to rock and roll here with the first of the 30, and this is called accept. No limits. A person is limited only by the thoughts that he chooses as a man. Think of. Mr. Johnson's rights, are not limited to the life you now live.
    It has been accepted by you as the best you can do at this moment. Anytime you're ready to go beyond the limitations currently in your life. You're capable of doing that by choosing. Different thoughts or, you know, [email protected]. We don't believe in obstacles. We believe in opportunities to grow.
    And that's one of the aspects of choosing different thoughts. The other aspect that you know, we address all the time is worry, doubt, and fear. [email protected]. We have a saying worry, doubt, and fear. You are not welcome here. So our perspective on how we view everything in life is a determining factor in how quickly we grow and how much better enabled we are to serve.
    All of mankind. Johnson goes on to say, we each earned the income we do today because that is the amount we have limited ourselves to earn. We could easily earn 5, 10, 15, 20 times more. If we did not limit ourselves to the thoughts that we currently maintain, I give that a little bit of thought.
    We limit ourselves in so many areas of life, by the thoughts we choose the thoughts we entertain, the thoughts we continue to repeat hour after hour, day after day, you don't believe that this is true. Surely, you know, people who earn much more than you, who don't have your education skills, your intelligence, your capabilities.
    So why do they earn more than you? It's a matter of choice of thoughts. I like to share this story from several decades ago. There was this CEO of, I guess, about a $300 million company at the time. And he couldn't get out of his way. And sometimes even though he had problems tying his shoes. I just couldn't figure it out.
    I'm sure you have had many instances along with that same category. It doesn't matter. It's, you know, it's, for me, it's, it's not a jealousy or envy factor. It, I guess is amazing and amusing at times. So let us take the next step. Let us say, Hey, I can do a lot better than this in all of my services. And I am worth far more than I'm currently being incompetent.
    So here's a great story. This is the story of George Dan Zik. And Cynthia Kurzy wrote about this in her book on stoppable as a college student, George studied, very hard and always late into the night. So late that he overslept one morning arriving 20 minutes late for class. He quickly copied the two maths problems on the board, assuming they were the homework.
    It took him several days to work through the two problems, but finally, he had a breakthrough and drop the homework off on the professor's desk. The next day later on a Sunday morning, George was awakened at 6:00 AM by his excited professor since George wasn't late for the class. He hadn't heard that the professor announced that these two unsolvable equations on the board were mathematical minds, teasers that even Einstein hadn't been able to answer, but George Dansik working without any kind of thoughts of limitations had solved.
    Not. But two problems had stumped mathematicians for thousands of years. How about that folks? How about that? Okay. There was no doubt, no worry, no fear. George jumped in with both feet and said, Hey, well, let's see what's going on here. You see, he didn't look at it as an option. He looked at i

One of the major branding statements we have here at jamesfantastik.com. I also like to inform you that. I am a Christian. And so when I. 
    Refer to my source of higher power guidance and inspiration. I use terms like God. My maker, Jesus heavenly father, holy spirit. I encourage you. If you don't already have.

He is good. He is love peace, joy, and kindness. And he wants the best for, for all of us. Another verse in the Bible says that, you know, I have calm. That you may have life. More abundantly. Encouragement encouragement. In this first he's saying, Hey. Let us not be aware, weary in well-doing. 
    That's the key. The well, when we're, when we're doing our best and we are there to serve and we're serving from our heart. Oh, It doesn't get any better than that. We just have to do it on God's time. And on ours. And I know. That can be frustrating. And. He is really teaching me. He's molding the daylights out of me. And that's fine because that's what gives. Value to life. We have to take our time. We have to stop fretting about the future. Okay. I mean, you know, In the Bible, it says. 
    You will have trouble in this world with fear or not. I have overcome the world. So. The fretting that we go through. As. Human beings.

    We put on our Fantastik attire today is Veteran's Day. When I am cutting. This particular podcast. And so I have a black shirt on and I can't think of what the name of this is. It's light. purple. 
    I had the name of this thing. I got chartreuse of my mind. And that's not it either. And when the good Lord gives it back to me, I'll tell you. But if you lavender, lavender blue dilly dilly. Okay. Thank you. Thank you, Lord. Thank you. Speaking of wait. So anyhow. On this. So I am dressed. In my black shirt and this lavender tie and I have my veteran's hat on to salute all my fellow veterans. The ones that went before me and have come after. And I appreciate all the families who have lost, loved ones. Throughout the Decades. We're at the century mark now. So anywho. It's veteran's day. So if you're a vet or. A family who has a veteran. Thank you for everything that you've done. No. I said I always like to say after the Funtastic. Tire. 
    We then, of course, a pill you in that. I am a Christian. And so when I refer to my higher power, I will use words like God creator, Jesus, holy spirit, heavenly father. So on and so forth. I encourage you. 
    If you don't already have. An inspirational source, please, please, please. Consider making that a very high priority. Very high priority. So. 
    The last week in our last episode. We were talking about the what-ifs in life. And that's episode number 10. So check that out. I think you will. You will enjoy that. It's, another form of excuse is the way I look at it. Okay. And then our episode today, it's, it's entitled to get out of my way. Or get out of your way. I'm going to do it. First-person gets out of my way. This is a. This, this, this. Hits very close to home for me. And You know, I, I always am interesting how the Bible has things. I mean, it's great, it's the greatest instruction book ever. As far as I'm concerned. But in Exodus. 20 verse three. It says thou shall have no other gods before me. And it goes on and it gives you more details. And then it says for, I am a jealous God. So. 
    You know, I guess. The question is, well, what are these other gods? I believe. The port for myself. I said, I, I, you know, I'm going to do this. First-person. As, as difficult as it is to do. What are those other gods? Well, I feel it's. Worry doubt and fear. 
    I think it's our ego. Our possessions. Our lack of faith. 
    And. Also. Superiority. Which ties in with our ego. I mean, we can have an ego that doesn't promote superiority, but in most cases, it does that. 
    So the reason that this hits a raw nerve for me. Is that you know, I'm. I've been blessed in life. Because I have applied myself. I have said in previous episodes, I am a lifelong learner. And every coin has two sides. So of if I choose to. Declare that title then. I have to be willing to walk the talk and continue to learn and continue to share. So what's been so tough about this is that I've had an amazing. Radio career and. You know, I. Semi tire for several semi-retired. 
    There are days that I'm also semi-tired. Yeah. 
    Oh my goodness. But anyhow, I semi semi-retired and I knew I had more to give back and so on. So I started studying. Yeah, I am a life coach. And I started studying with that and all these different seminars and because of my success that I had in radio. This was all through my Eagle. That's all I can tell you. I, it, it, it's painful. To minute, but it was my Eagle because I thought. That is the door in this internet marketing maze. We'll just swing right open. All right. Then here comes, Mr. Fantastic. Let us all bow down and yeah, the data. Well, I, you know, again, that didn't happen in the radio business for me either till I got my first. The radio station is on the air. It took five years of work, five years of. Painstaking work. Okay. So you know, again, How could have I forgotten

So we're talking today about the, what ifs in life are they real or are they just a figment of our imagination? I want you to think about that for a couple of minutes before we go there.
    And we're going to take a quick review of our last podcast, which was in decisiveness. Now, Webster says that in decisiveness is not settling an issue, him hawing around. We also have a thing in there. Call comparison despair. That helps us. Am I good enough? Aren't I good enough. Um, lack of laser focus, the why versus the fork in the road we get to this point.
    Well, uh, well, if I go right, maybe that'll be the wrong decision. If I go left, if I go straight, we need to. Uh, date on our wait. I have a very great story to share with you. That just happened to me within the last hour. You see, I'm, I'm going for an MRI. I'm having some, uh, shoulder problems. And so this has to do with, well, how long do I want to wait?
    Well, I don't want. You know, any extra time necessary. I need to find out what's going on with my shoulder. So I was scheduled for 10 days from the day, and I kept on calling to see if there was a cancellation call this morning, no luck. So I just said, Hey, you know, I'm going to call again. And the lady was taking her time and this, that, and the other thing.
    And all of a sudden she has a, Hey, how would you like to do tomorrow? Oh, I said, well, that'd be fantastic. So what time she says, you have to be here at six 30. Now I have over an hour drive to get

    Hello, the world I'm back. James 'Fantastik' Hepler.  It's been a while.  We'll talk about that here in a moment, but first of all, as we do here at the monetize your book. Podcast [email protected] we put on are fantastic where I like to be fantastic. And most of the time I live pretty fantastically. So now I have my wonderful brand new white fedora and a red, white, and blue check shirt.
    I'm ready to roll. I hope you are also, you may want to put some of them fantastic reading glasses on to complete. You are fun. Tastic attire is so great to be back been 18 months. Yeah. You might say  Mr. Fantastic. What have you been doing for 18 months? For a good question.
    I asked myself that question when I was writing this and the answer is I have been growing immensely and I like to  Bring it back to the aspect that I become much more moldable, much pliable, but be another great word. Okay. And a couple of weeks ago, I was doing a three-day intense seminar with Alison Maslin.
    And her company is scale. It, the name of her program is scaling. It's a, I can't remember the name of her company, but anyhow, she's been around forever.  Not that long, but she's been doing it a long time and it was great.  It was three days.  I learned a bunch and it tied into my indecision now.

One of her speakers was a renowned author and a motivational speaker.
    He is an ordained minister and he has this new book called the magical mindset. And how do we get from mundane and messy and that kind of stuff? And one particular aspect of the book though is ruining that rock. My world old is he's had, I am a Christian.  He was, I said he was in a dream minister, but I had no idea what his theology is.
    So anyhow, in, in him saying I am a Christian, he said, so my greater power is called God. And. It was liberating for me because I am also a Christian. I've been a Christian my whole life. And I refer to my source of inspiration of guidance to God.  I refer to it as the holy spirit, my heavenly father  Jesus is called the Christ teaching.
    And what I would encourage you is to find a word or words or a system that works for you. The great thing about the Christ teaching is Jesus said, here's the Bible you can use as much of it or as little of it, or none of it is here for your attune. There are no rules and regulations.  I got to read three chapters a day or w
