Raise your hand if you've ever done something, gotten it to a "good enough" state, and called it good there. I know I'm raising my hand. Ever been truly happy with the results? I know I haven't. It's time for us to stop working for "good enough" and instead start working for "it is finished.

Shout out to Les Brown's speech for inspiring this episode.

When you're working toward a goal, you've always gotta "be hungry" and continue to work toward the goal no matter what. You've got to be able to sell your goal and the reason you need to achieve it to yourself if you want to succeed on the days where you just don't feel like going for it.

The people who have their eyes open are the ones who can't see. They see what other people tell them to see because they can't see their true selves.

I see it with people: they want the results, but are content to complain when they don't do anything different to achieve said results. It's time for us to realize that to reach our goals, we MUST do things differently.

When it comes to the end of your life, what will you be remembered for? Some of us will be remembered for the hard work we put in to get to the top of our field, others will be remembered for the hard work we put in to help others succeed and get to where they want to be in life. Which do you value most?

We tend to sell ourselves short when it comes to our abilities. We don't want to come off as too arrogant, so we stop just short of showing our true skills and it kills the whole thing. Well it's time to tell ourselves that we're just better than the person we try to sell to other people.

Big things are coming. Let me say one word: GUESTS.

I'm sure you've sat there and had these REALLY good thoughts about things you want to do or achieve. You sit there and think and think, and think about what could go right, and what could go wrong, and how maybe you're not quite as good at it as you think, and maybe you actually suck at it, and maybe you'd get laughed at until you just decide that you're not gonna do that. Been there, done that. Don't analyze until you get analysis paralysis!!

Special shout out to Haley and Lauren over at the Sauce Box for letting me use the intro clip from their episode "Choose to Challenge"! Episode can be found at Choose to Challenge (buzzsprout.com)

Men, we've gotta do better. We can't act like having a certain anatomical part means we can just do whatever we want without consequences. If you do something like what's talked about in this episode, you should be ashamed of yourself. If you see something like this happening, do the right thing and step in. 

This episode is different from our others! I was answering some questions asked on Twitch and decided to put the answers as an episode as I feel they could be beneficial and shed some light on my journey to this podcast.
