SMFR The Podcast

Its difficult to underestimate the value of a strong relationship; whether it's your spouse, a best friend, or a mentor in your life, we simply need another person to lean on . Someone's that's always there for us. I sincerely hope you have that in your life, and please cherish and nurture that relationship - they sure don't grow on trees! I'm just a guy on the interwebs, but if you every need a set of ears to listen, I'm here for you. Damn sure love all y'all!

When we put pen to paper (especially blue ink on white paper), we connect the physical (writing) to the mental (thoughts and subconscious). It helps us tremendously as I hopefully explain in this l'il podcast. This is SO important, so take a listen and let me know what you think. Love all'yall! PS Cover photo is a shoutout to my buddy Cam Janssen a wonderful dude and true Blue!

One of the recurring themes here on SMFRThePodcast is... da-da-da-da! Overthinking. We all do it and it can truly affect our mental clairty, if not even our overall mental health. But here are some points to consider to use overthinking to our benefit; to assist us in solving problems, exploring positive ideas, thinking of new ways to attack a project, etc. Sounds cool to me and it actually works. Hey thanks for allowing me to share these things with you and indeed, I love all y'all!

Before starting, here's a disclaimer: this is the most Un-SMFR, Un-Steve Reeb podcast you'll ever see and hear and I assure you, it's not political. It's not about Trump, or blah blah blah. It's about We The People finally seeing the government for what it is: freeloading bums sucking us dry of our hard-earned dollars and sending it where? To illegals across the board, to fraudulent "day care centers" in MInnesota - The Ukraine is a whole 'nother kettle of stinking fish - and this is just the tip of the spear (to quote Andy Frisella). Meanwhile our homeless situation is out of control, hard-working Americans unable to make ends meet, and we are getting taxed (scammed) to an extent we're never seen before. Here's my point: We are seeing people of all ages, races, and backgrounds coming together and saying "no more". #NoTax26 is out there - look it up. Get pissed. Get inspired. We have to put a stop to this corruption and throw people in jail for the sake of our children and grandchildren - or there will be no America. Love all y'all!

Seneca was a Roman Stoic philosopher from 4 BC to 65 BC, but his teachings and writings are still very significant today. One of the most influential Stoic thinkers, his teachings and writings focus on ethics, self- control, reason, and how to live a good life in the face of hardship. Does that sound familiar? Sure does, we live it every day and (I think you'd agree) that these topics are a main focus of SMFRThePodcast. Thank you for subscribing, liking, commenting etc; I love all y'all!

Here are a few things my Dad taught me perhaps he didn't teach me directly, but in observing this wonderful gentleman I learned so much about how to be just that - a gentleman. Just simple things that people notice and respect us for, and things that help us carry our heads high and, indeed, treat others as we would be treated. Got more to come on this in future podcasts, but I like keeping these short because, well, you know - squirrel! Love all y'all!

The Rosenthal Effect is a famous 1960's study that really illuminates and ties together so much of what we discuss here on SMFRThePodcast. Anything we can do to help us be successful in our minds, in our work and family lives, and yes, in our bank accounts - is crucial to our development and happiness. Give this a listen and if you'd like more detail, just look it up on the interwebs. Love all y'all!

Ever felt ready to give up? Yup, me too. But before we do, let's give it one more try. Persistence beats perfection, and history is littered with people who just gave up too soon, as well as the Edisons and Lincolns of the world who just kept going in the face of multiple "failures". So I'm challenging you and I to find one thing that we've perhaps given up on, and use our experience to get back to it - and give it one more try. Love all y'all!

Here are 10 little things that we can incorporate into our daily lives - not only to make us more attractive - but to boost our confidence and self-esteem. I found these on the ol' interwebs and thought it was worth sharing with you. In essence, we don't have to make wholesale changes to improve ourselves; in fact, I'm sure you do a lot of these things already. However, I hope it's a nice reminder for you as it is for myself. Love all y'all!

Steve's Harvey's journey from homeless to a household name has been popping up on my social media feeds lately. Perhaps you've seen it; he talks about living in his car for 3 years before getting his break. It's really good do look it up when you have time. The point being: All of our trials and tribulations are there on purpose. To guide us, to give us experience, to teach us - until we're ready. So when things look a little bleak or it looks like the plan isn't working, just trust it - and know that The Man Upstairs has got you. Truth. Love all y'all!
