Phil Vedda is a great business professional who has faced his only challenges, but have two hours and forty seven minutes to himself was not one he expected.

We are going to start bringing guests on the show, why, we love people and they all have a story to tell.

There are times when life hits us hard... like a fastball to the face, but we realize that we can make it through and we are bigger than the situation we are dealing with.

How we handle our frustrations are important and how we react to things that are out of control is crucial...Especially then things are in our control, we just don't see it that way.

Do you know the difference between a Coach and a counselor? We discuss that today and why I wanted to burn the city down a few weeks back.

We live in a world of uncertainty, where the future remains a mystery waiting to unfold. But amidst this unpredictability, there's one constant we can always rely on – ourselves.

In Episode 10, I shared about Human Being not Human doing… But we can have both. IN order for this to happen though, we have to work on ourselves by the other principal, growth over grind. 

Sometimes some words mean more than you know. We may have heard them before, just not in the meaning that they are given.

Listening to and understanding them is key; the people who deliver those words to you are more important to us than we think because they have you in their best interests.

I really don’t have a secret. It is more tied to a book. The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. It has always been in stacks of books on a bookshelf. Gathering dust. 

It had been some time since my wife and I separated, but we still talk. About a month after 12-28-23 I was tired one night so I laid down and fell asleep quickly with the Tv on. It was early for me, around 845. Something woke me up around 945, something in a dream. 

There is a scene in Season one of Ted lasso where Ted mentions that “We Can’t change the past, but we can choose to honor it.” So far I have talked about the change and how to really see if it is needed, the one thing I should mention is that we need to honor the past. 

We have to own up to the part we played in our past. Owning it means that we have acknowledged it and embraced it, but are ready to move forward. 

There is a huge step in the change process that ties directly into this. 

We have to apologize to ourselves. 

We keep seeing the gurus, the people who are all about change, Gary Vee and Tony Robbins talk about embracing your story. 

Sounds great, but I am willing to bet that way more people are confused as to what their story is than being able to embrace it. 

Embrace and accept is same thing in this case. If you are happy in your life, then accept that, embrace it.

If you are not, then change it. Your life, your story does not need to be the same at 25 and 45. That is the great thing about being human.

Only you can define what happiness looks like for you. Only you can make the changes in your life that affect you.
