  • When you know WHY you’re doing something, it’s much easier to stick with and follow through on. Think back to the subjects in school that you hate, most likely you can’t see any reason WHY you should do it, or WHY you would ever need to use it in life (trigonometry). But when you can see the WHY, like knowing that workouts translate directly to results and success on the playing field, it’s much easier to stick with it through the hard things.

    It’s the same with life, when you feel you have a purpose, your WHY, things just flow for you. It doesn’t mean it’s going to be easy, or that you’ll enjoy every aspect of it. But it DOES mean that you can see where you’re headed, rather than just blindly charging ahead through life. 

    Your WHY is the measuring stick you hold up to everything in your life. “Should I take this job”, “should I move to this city”, “should I get married to this person”, etc. All you have to do is measure that against your WHY, and it will give you instant clarity on your path forward.

  • To cultivate an attitude of gratitude, we have to take time from our busy day and remember to give thanks for all the blessings that keep coming our way on a daily basis. Gratitude keeps us focused on what we have rather than all the things we don't have, which keeps us in a victim mentality.

  • One of the biggest “Keys to Life” I know of is learning how to say “NO”. One trait of IMPACTFUL people is that they want to make a difference whenever, wherever, and however they can. Too often the thing that goes along with this is the propensity to say “yes” to every opportunity that comes up. Always remember, that saying yes to one thing, is saying no to something else. And that something else may just be the thing you SHOULD be saying yes to. Don’t be afraid to prioritize the things that are important to you. Don’t let someone else make their problems your problem, and force you to say “yes” just because they “need” your help. Learn to recognize when an opportunity is right, and say yes to those things, and no to the things that aren’t right for you. Say yes to more of the things that “light you up”. 

    Learn how to say “no”.

  • “Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.” – Norman Vincent Peale“Life is like a game of chess. To win you have to make a move. Knowing which move to make comes with IN-SIGHT and knowledge, and by learning the lessons along the way. We become each and every piece within the game called life!” Allan Rufus

    The key to success is ACTION!!

  • Today's "Key to Winning at Life" comes from Amy Dingman of a Farmish Kind of Life podcast.

    Key to Life: Don’t Be the Smartest Person in the RoomWhile it’s great for your confidence (and your ego!) to be the smartest person in the room, it also tends to stagnate your learning. Because when you’re the smartest person in the room, what more is there to learn there?I think it’s important to continually learn along the journey of life, and in order to keep learning, you have to be okay with being the person who doesn’t know something. Be okay with not knowing. Admit that you don’t know and then purposely seek out spaces and communities that can teach you something new.At some point, you might become the person that others look towards as a teacher, and that’s great! Be willing to teach others what you know, but also be willing to spend time in a different room – the one where you aren’t the smartest person, and in fact might be the person who has the most to learn.

  • Today I'm speaking with Nancy Pickard about uncovering limiting beliefs, stepping outside our comfort zone to grow and challenge ourselves. Learning that the juice is in the journey and not just in the end game is a game changer. Becoming growth minded and resilient.

    What we discuss:

    What is a growth mindset and how does one cultivate that?What is a shadow belief and how does it hold us back?How does one move forward when they are afraid?How does someone learn to let go of resistance and move in to surrender?What does it mean to become the observer and not the reactor?How does one set heathy boundaries?

  • Today's key to winning at life comes from none other than my sister, Sara.

    Her key is, take time to rest and recharge.

    Here's the confession: I've really, really struggled with burnout! And it wasn't until a month or so ago that it clicked! I was reading an article for moms, and the author made the comment, "You can't pour from an empty cup." And I cried! I was trying to do so much on my own strength, and it was impossible. There is a reason God commanded us to rest! We were not designed to take all of the stress of life on ourselves. We HAVE to rest and fill up our strength of mind and body so we can keep going for our loved ones and our own passions and interests! Since then, I've been making more of an effort to take more guilt free rest periods so I can give my family the Mama and Wife they need. ~ Sara

  • Your personal motivation at any age is an enduring source of focus, energy, and meaning. God gave you agency and expects you to use it for good, and not spend your life mostly in distraction/entertainment/going with the flow. The skills of motivation, available to anyone at any age are your foundation upon which to build an impactful life and career.

  • Today's "Key to Winning at Life" comes from Melissa White.

    One of the things that helps me to win at life is cleaning as I go and keeping things organized. When my house gets messy and things aren’t where they are supposed to be, it throws everything off and takes so much longer to finish a project. Like when I am cooking in the kitchen I like to clean up as I go so there isn’t such a large overwhelming mess at the end. It also helps to be very organized so I can quickly find the bowl, knife, seasoning blend, etc.. when I need it and I don’t spend half my time looking for something. Like the saying goes, “A place for everything and everything in it’s place.” If you make it a habit to have a place for everything and put it back in it’s place when you are done using it, then you not only save your time and sanity looking for it you also save money because you won’t run out and buy another thing when you can’t find the one you already have.

    Go get organized, and do good work.

    Don't forget to sign up for the first ever Teen Catalyst event happening in June. Tickets are on sale through March for only $175 for a father/son pair.

  • Today's quote comes from Tommy Baker, The 1% Rule: How to Fall in Love with the Process and Achieve Your Wildest Dreams

    “Once we see the unknown through the frame of unlimited possibility, a place where anything can happen, we open up our world.”

    What is that unknown for you that you're afraid to go into? Lean into the fear, walk into the unknown. You just might find exactly what you were looking for.

  • Today I chat with Hami Mahani, former D1 College athlete, marketing expert turned entrepreneur, CEO and Founder of 6AMRun.comt, about how prioritizing fitness lead to massive breakthroughs for him in business.

    At 42, what I have learned is that my physical fitness journey has ALWAYS centered me and helped me professionally. To the point where I am now, CEO and Founder of 6AMRun.com

    All teens hear is "work hard", go to school, etc. No one address' coping with daily issues. Through running, taking care of your health can clear our minds and solve our issues, AND guide OURSELVES to "professional" or other successful paths.

    Here's some of what we discuss in the show:

    Overcoming adversity early in life How "running" can improve your quality of life. Why physical health is the CORE of all other health/wellness needs? What is a 6AM Mindset"Hard Work" being a myth, and why.

  • #7 in our '101 Keys to Winning at Life' series.

    Today's key comes from Alan Bechard:

    Having good friends and associating with good people is a crucial part of a successful and happy life. You need to pick friends and strive to be with people that are honest and true while they are successful at the things that are important to you in life. As you go through life, seek out those that are accomplishing what you desire, those that you wish to emulate, those people that are working along a similar path that you are striving to go down. If you surround yourself with people who's values do not align with your own, you will find yourself going astray from your values. We all slowly adapt and adjust to the people that we surround ourselves with. You can make the conscious choice to choose those that you surround yourself with and associate with, make sure that you are making wise choices. In conclusion, the people that you surround yourself with are both a reflection of who you are, as well as an indication of your path forward and who you will become. It is important to choose those people wisely as you go through life.
  • Today's Monday Motivation comes from Jesus himself.

    In Matthew 7:12 he said to "do to others what you want them to do to you".

    Recognize that each person has their love language, learn it, and treat them from that perspective. Just like you would hope others would do for you.

  • I invited Tanya onto the show to talk about how to go to college debt free.

    Often referred to as the "Media Darling" -- I am a former investigative news journalist turned financial & business development strategist. I am a licensed financial professional.

    I created 6-figure revenues in my first 6 months, as an entrepreneur (and single mom) and then multiple 6-figures in revenues within my first three years.

    My students span 12 countries and have generated over $7.4 million in free publicity appearing in the New York Times, Forbes, Huffington Post, and on CNN, BBC World News, and FOX — to name a few.

    Here's a few of the questions we touched on in the show:How do you select the right college, to maximize your chances of a scholarship / full rideWhat other things do you need to consider / researchHow do you minimize your, and your parent's assets, so that you receive maximum FASFAHow do you enter the 0% tax bracket and start to build wealth, as soon as you're workingHow do you become your own bank, so you can fund your own dreamsWhat happens if you take this advice, but decide NOT to go to college?What else can you use your money on? (VERY different to the College 529 Savings Plans)
