🎶 On this episode I take a nice positive spin as always and explain why you should pick up a book from your childhood. I did when my kids were young and it completely changed my outlook on everything. I read through my 12 year old brain AND I also read through my adult brain, it was like reading a book twice.

💻 I dive into Gino Blefari being a fraud exposed at the HomeServices marketing and tech convention and how I turned in my resignation shortly after.

📚 I also announce another series I am adding to the podcast, "Storytime With Steele" I may just go chapter by chapter in my life, why not?

🥤Serve cool and enjoy!

Reconnecting with that wonder you had as a child is easier than you think, and won't even cost you a dime unless you forget to return the book! I ask you to check out a book from your childhood, read it and I will break down on Friday why this is such a beautiful thing!

I go deep into why turning off your notifications can change your mindset, and mindset is everything. Some mental health and life benefits I saw with one week of turning off notifications:

This one is here to stay for me and I hope, in some way shape or form it does for you too.

I break down how changing my five changed my life and discuss the responses from my letters to my family. Also I am committing to writing one letter a week for the rest of my life!

Looking at my phone while looking to instruct you on how to turn notifications OFF I realized I have 42 apps trying to get all up in my business. 42! That is absolutely insane, no wonder we cant hold a conversation. If you want to make your life better, be more engaged, tune in for a few minutes and accept the challenge on this Marching Order Monday!

There is something intimate about writing letters, it is the human touch. In a world full of videos, snapchats, voicemails, texts and so many other options, taking the time to write a letter is worth a thousand of those other things.

Listen in as I share memories of a young man aboard the USS Maryland in the South Pacific during World War II and why that is so important to me.

The Golden Rule is wrong - yep I said it and follow along to find out why the Platinum rule is better.

📷 Remember when a picture was worth a thousand words? Maybe in today's age of capturing everything on camera, a written word's value, a truly written word on paper's value is worth more? Have we stopped to think about that little reversal of cliche's?

📝 I am going to take you into a time machine, about 100 years back and ask you to communicate, pour your heart onto the page with a pen. It feels closer, the words mean more when written. 
📧I love handwritten letters, notes, cards or even post it notes. Taking the time to write and mail one is a lost art ONLY if we allow it to be. So grab a pen, pull out that address book (or ask siri) and channel your inner Hemingway!

Or just tell someone hello and what they mean to you! Then on Friday I will break down why this feels so damn good!

#Motivation #Positivity #MarchingOrderMonday #OneMinuteWisdom

🙌 Welcome to another edition of One Minute Wisdom where we take action one small gesture at a time making the world a better place and you a better human.

🌲 This week I asked everyone to take a 15-minute walk outside in nature, no phone,s or at a minimum shut off your notifications and turn on Do Not Disturb. Why you may ask? An increasing body of evidence suggests that the time we spend on our smartphones is interfering with our sleep, self-esteem, relationships, memory, attention spans, creativity, productivity and problem-solving and decision-making skills. I agree with all of that!

🍟 McDonalds sells the same 5 menu items, yet they are always coming up with new menu items, why? #relevance with their customers on this week's #oneminutewednesday.
🍔 The same 3 items are the top seller: Big Mac, Chicken Nuggets & Fries. Yet McDonalds is always innovating.
👩‍🍳 They are showcasing that even though they have been around for 3/4 of a century they are still #innovative. It is NOT the #Innovations in the kitchen but the #culture to evolve.
📰 They want to remain #relevant with their customers, and so should you.
😡 How many times has a customer gone with another company because they "didn't know you offered that?" It happens ALL the time in siloed companies. Change that #mindset.
🍔 And...if anyone is an authority on McDonalds let my physique be the resume!

📱 When was the last time you didn't have your phone or didn't check it for 15 minutes? For me that happens a lot since I focused on being present. When it comes to #mentalhealth the simplest actions can help the most.

🌲The challenge this week is easier and more fun than you may think. Normally we are doing something for others, this week do something for yourself and let's chat about it Friday!
