If you let go, you move forward. It's as simple as that.    Simple, but not always easy... BUT simple nonetheless! Going into the new year, ask yourself, "Is it TIME to ADJUST to a NEW REALITY?"

Vacation - schedule at least 1-2 weeks off every year; in the short-term, block 2-3 days every month where you simply step away and shut down to rest and revitalize. 3.)

185: The Right Answer

December 13, 2014 06:07 - 5 minutes - 43.3 MB Video

As Dan states in his book, "Faced with a significant problem or setback, many people simply give up on their dreams or plans. Instead, try treating problems as opportunities to be creative. Realize that for every obstacle there is a solution. Discover the magic of searching for the Second Right Answer!"  Don't give up after one try... try again and again... after a setback, simply ask, "How ELSE Can I Do This?"... ALWAYS look for the right answer... sometimes, the SECOND ANSWER!

181: The Importance of Setting Goals & Having Dreams

December 09, 2014 06:07 - 5 minutes - 44.5 MB Video

Your goals are your dreams and your dreams are your goals. If you have them, they can come true and change the next 5 years of your life for the better. AND... if you write them down, you enter the mere 4% of humans who actually take the time to write them down. Did you know that people who write down their goals actually earn nine times as much over their lifetime as the people who don't?!?! Fewer than 1% actually review their goals and update/adjust on an ongoing basis. It seems fair...

178: How to Have a Good Day

December 06, 2014 06:07 - 4 minutes - 38 MB Video

An excerpt from the book and simple math equation to help you gauge how many days you "probably" have left. WHERE ARE YOU on your journey? 1.) Get out a pencil & do the math. 2.) Multiply your age x 365 days. (That will give you your current age in days.) 3.) Subtract that number from 27,375 days. (That's the average life-span of a human these days.) The number that remains is the amount of days you "probably" have left. Leverage that number to remember that your days are "numbered" &...

UConn spent last season with some ups and downs and had to make the changes to make their season amazing.

November 20, 2014 06:07 - 4 minutes - 34.3 MB Video

Some days will be better than others and sometimes your best on any given day may not be the same.  Today, I was unable to work out like I wanted due to a pulled muscle in my neck. In fact, I almost didn't even go to the gym.  Then, when I went to the gym, my strength was down. I was frustrated to say the least.  My lovely fiancé and trainer, Leanna, looked me in the eye and just said, "honey just do your best with what you can today."  I immediately shifted and accepted that what I had ...

161: How to Ensure Success

November 19, 2014 06:07 - 7 minutes - 59.8 MB Video

Whenever we are chasing something big, there is always going to be resistance and fear. The antagonist will always rear it's head. Expect it. Embrace it. It's part of the journey to achieving anything great.  Whenever this happens, simply remember why you started, create and revisit your why list daily, and accept that resistance, obstacles, fear and the antagonist combined with making mistakes and failures, are all part of the process... and part of the bigger plan.  Remember, just beyond...

November 16, 2014 06:07 - 6 minutes - 56.5 MB Video

We all fall victim to comparing ourselves to others and/or at times thinking we're not good enough... what I like to call "The Imposter Syndrome."  This syndrome causes us to lose confidence, doubt ourselves, and sometimes even give up,  Additionally, when we compare, we despair. However, it's just as easy to compare and then dare to be great just like the person to whom we're comparing ourselves.  After all, this person paved the way and has shown us what is possible.

155: How to Overcome Fear

November 13, 2014 06:07 - 10 minutes - 85.3 MB Video

I love that quote from Nelson Mandela. In fact, I like to say that "courage is nothing more than the expansion of fear into something positive."  Fear will never go away. It is the one thing that robs us of our dreams, goals and desires, and it's the root cause for almost every problem and issue in life.  The bigger your dreams, the more fear you'll encounter. As such, we as champions, the chosen ones to play a bigger game, must learn to master our reaction to fear; to leverage it in a pos...

November 07, 2014 06:07 - 4 minutes - 37.5 MB Video

It's not easy, but it is fairly simple... you have a choice... to make an excuse or to make a change. Life happens. You're not perfect. You'll make mistakes. You'll have failures.

November 04, 2014 06:07 - 5 minutes - 41.3 MB Video

I learned from the best in George and have always done my best to send a hand written note when appropriate. To be reminded of the power of a hand written letter by Peter and to see Peter leading by example and giving more is so inspiring.
