S5 EP130 The Extraordinary Thought From an Ordinary Mind - Demetrius Thigpen

Today on the #goallin podcast we have a returning guest Demetruis Thigpen. I'm excited to have Meech back on the show today to talk about the book that he has just released called "The extraordinary thought from an ordinary mind."

As a little escape from the madness of the world we have a really great guest for you today. In fact our guest Meech is returning. Last time I really enjoyed our conversation as his mindset, beliefs and thought process was so reflective of mine and I think that is born out of both of us being in the military albeit in different services and countries!

I love talking to and interviewing fellow service members. You might have heard the saying before that there is no such thing as an ex-soldier, and it's true. No matter what you do after your time in the military, the training you learn, the mindset they teach and the experiences you have stick with you for the rest of your life.

Sometimes these would rather have been forgotten or not experienced at all but for the most part what you learn sets you up really well and gives you the ability to learn just about anything that you put your mind to.

The greatest skill that I took away was the mindset and the ability to learn how to do something. Those skills transferred well into the entrepreneurial world where you have to adapt, be flexible and change at a moment's notice. Nothing really bothers me in business because of that mindset and I do know that is a great trait to have taken away.

If you haven't heard the original interview with Meech pop on back a little to episode 109 and you can check it out there. On today's show we're going to cover his book and talk about the process of writing it and some of the headline topics.

Throughout his service, Meech he has faced obstacles and overcame adversity; he's also deployed to several different countries in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, and the Special Purpose Marine Air Ground Task Force.

These tours along with many other challenges have transformed him into the man he is today. A Sergeant and Martial Arts Instructor Trainer within the United States Marine Corps, Meech has had the privilege to train, lead, guide, and mentor fellow Marines.

Meech is also the host and creator of the podcast "Extraordinary Thoughts for the Ordinary Mind which is a podcast dedicated to help us become the version of ourselves that we were destined to be.

As you'll hear Meech is on a mission to empower millennials to overcome adversity, strengthen emotional muscles, and become relatable leaders within their communities.
