Thought patterns and narratives.
February 08, 2020 02:56 - 4 minutes - 4.24 MBWhat's going on everyone? It is Friday, February 7th. I hope everyone is having a great week and has a great weekend ahead of them. I wanted to talk for a few minutes about some things I was thinking about over the week and took a few notes on. I've been thinking more about pro-actively paying attention to our thoughts, thought patterns, which includes, or ties in with, the narratives we think within and how we talk to ourselves in our internal dialogue. Throughout our day, we base the ...
Small decisions for big impact
January 31, 2020 01:55 - 4 minutes - 3.86 MBIt's interesting how the small decisions of how we spend our time have a big impact on our overall experience. Sometimes we are on such auto-pilot that we don't put much thought into how we are spenidng our time. We often just fill it with things like watching TV, scrolling social media, video games, talking on the phone, eating out, etc. We all need relaxation and escape, but I think it's important to know we can have a much different experience with just small decision changes. For e...
Training for productivity.
January 20, 2020 19:31 - 6 minutes - 5.72 MBSaturday, I watched a Mixed Martial Arts fight that many fans were excited about, largely because it was the return of Conor McGregor, the Irish superstar Martial Artist. Although his opponent Donald Cerrone is an awesome guy, a great fighter and a fan favorite too. So I was excited to see both of them perform. I try to learn what I can from the event and athletes. I wanted to specifically touch on something Conor was saying after his win on Saturday during the post-fight interviews that I'...
Self-reflection, humility, and mentors.
January 12, 2020 21:11 - 6 minutes - 6.35 MBThe ability to reflect on ourselves, recognize where we can improve, and make adjustments. It’s important to have humility and be open to change for the better, which means facing our ignorance and flaws at times, which can be painful. Still, its nice to know we can train ourselves to embrace new ways of thinking to improve, which helps our relationships and our effectiveness in the workplace, at home, etc. The alternative is not reflecting and recognizing ways we can improve, which means we'...

Our perspectives on personal and professional day-to-day finances and how we operate with them.
November 15, 2019 23:21 - 8 minutes - 7.52 MBThis episode addresses our perspectives on personal and professional day-to-day finances and how we operate within them. And it is regarding over-extending ourselves financially and basically operating paycheck to paycheck vs. creating a lifestyle where we operate below our earning capacity and having a cushion, so our day to day isn't so tight financially. And there's middle-ground here, but it's fascinating to me the extremes that people go to out of habit, or by making more of a conscious ...
Limiting distractions and managing the energy needed for significant decisions.
November 13, 2019 22:48 - 4 minutes - 4.16 MBIt's been five days since I last recorded a few minutes on this podcast. And It's due to something I figured I'd talk about since it's so relevant to what I just experienced. Processing and contemplating significant decisions takes a lot of time and energy, especially when they involve life decisions like taking a job opportunity, moving somewhere, committing to a large project, or task. I think it's common to underestimate how much mental energy and physical energy this takes. Becaus...
The importance of sleep, rest, and recovery.
November 08, 2019 00:42 - 3 minutes - 3.47 MBWhat’s going on everyone? It is Thursday November 7th. Hope you’re having a great week so far and start to the day. Wanted to touch on the topic of sleep, rest and recovery and about how it affects our performance. It seems pretty simple right? If we’re well rested and alert with plenty of natural energy we’ll be able to perform better than if we’re tired and sluggish, or tired but anxious with crashes and inconsistency from stimulants like caffeine, sugar or whatever. It’s seems like c...
The ability to acknowledge when we are wrong.
November 06, 2019 05:55 - 6 minutes - 6.47 MBWhat's going on everyone? It is the afternoon of Tuesday, November 5th. I hope everyone is having a great day. Something I was as thinking about today, and I also realized I think about somewhat often. It's interesting because I'll think about what I want to talk or write about on this podcast, then through the day something will naturally pop into my head, and I'll notice it more. Then I'll think oh yeah this is something that comes up quite a bit, why not talk about it. When we express an ...
Focusing and putting energy on what we can control.
November 05, 2019 00:40 - 5 minutes - 5.22 MBRegarding limiting the time we spend on thinking about things outside of our control, which includes other's perceptions of us, or how others might portray to perceive us. And to expand on that last part - If someone's perceptions of us are good, they may portray to see them as inadequate or bad. They may put us down or express their feelings of negativity out of insecurity, an over-active ego, or due to something going on in their lives, we just don't know. Sometimes people project on us...
Developing new habits and routines through conditioning.
November 02, 2019 14:52 - 6 minutes - 5.76 MBWhat’s going on everyone? It’s the evening of Friday, November 1st. I hope everyone had a great day and has a great weekend ahead. I wanted to touch on a few notes on things I was thinking about today regarding what it takes to get better and more consistent with those worth-while routines and habits. If you’ve been listening, you know that’s a big focus of mine. I feel it’s important because the how we do the small things add up to the big stuff, so we have to focus on those micro-routines...
Telling ourselves why we can't get started is usually wrong.
November 01, 2019 02:59 - 4 minutes - 4.38 MBWhen we want to start something new we often find reasons why we can’t. We say to ourselves oh yeah I’d start that project, but I don’t have the right equipment, or I’d start working out, but I don’t like the gym I belong to, or I’d start writing more, but I have to take a class first, or I’d start a podcast but I don’t have the microphone or recording equipment yet. The reality is that we can start at any time. We can find parts of the project we can work on now. We can pull up at home wor...
