Ep. 313: Making Small Adjustments
May 21, 2021 15:02 - 15 minutes - 14 MBFor over one year, I lived with self-inflicted rib pain from a coughing bout in early 2020. I could have chosen to deal with this issue a long time ago, but for whatever reason I didn't. When I finally broke down and decided to do something about it, all it took was one chiropractor visit to notice a HUGE difference - and that's when I realized something again. The biggest changes in life don't happen all at once - they are a result of small, incremental adjustments we make along our path t...
Ep. 312: Mental Quantum Leaps
April 28, 2021 15:00 - 13 minutes - 13 MBYour ability to focus and hone in on the most important, needle-moving activities on a day to day basis is reflective of your impact and rise in your career. Nearly all of us spend a good portion of our day wasting time, "kicking tires" or just plain procrastinating - and all it takes to change that is a different method of focus. For the past 6 months I've been using an app called GoQuantum, an app created by my friend Jeremy Findley which is specifically designed to help people like you a...
Ep. 311: When Sh** Hits The Fan...
April 26, 2021 17:44 - 12 minutes - 11.5 MBThere are times in life when things just do not go your way at all....like at all. This happened to me recently when my entire business was wiped out in a single night without warning and due to something completely beyond my control. My new business Dapper Mobile Apps used a hosting provider that lost all it's servers and backup data in a fire in France. Yet, through that entire experience, I managed to not lose a single client and actually came back from it stronger than ever. It provide...
Ep. 310: Picking & Choosing - RICE
February 17, 2021 13:00 - 15 minutes - 14.8 MBWith so many things on your plate every day and so many options to pursue inside of this world, how do you actually make a decision? How do you determine for yourself which paths to follow and which to let go? Try the RICE method to figure it out: Reach: Is the goal/target within your reach or making you reach further than you possibly can? Impact: Is this goal/target more of a self-serving goal or are you going to have a bigger impact than you originally thought? Confidence: Are you conf...

Ep. 308: Knowing When To Stop
February 11, 2021 13:00 - 14 minutes - 13.7 MBWith many of us working from home, or at least spending more time at home these days, the term "work-life balance" has brought on an entirely new meaning. How do you know when to lay down your work for the day? How can we differentiate between the blurred lines of work, family obligations, career aspirations and cooking dinner? It's a freaking nightmare. One of the keys to pulling off a successful "balance" (or as close as you can get to it) becomes setting your priorities for your day. Mak...
Ep. 307: Replacing Yourself??
February 10, 2021 13:00 - 15 minutes - 14.2 MBWe all have 168 hours in a week. Whether you're Oprah Winfrey or the President or just a normal person. So how do some people use those 168 hours to get done 100x more than someone else? The answer: automation, delegation & systemization. At the end of the day, you and I can't do it all. It's nearly impossible to succeed alone. We need help - whether that is is from other people or computers or technology of some form. Two pieces of software I highly recommend are IFTTT and Zapier. These ...
Ep. 306: Why Is Fear Real?
February 03, 2021 12:00 - 14 minutes - 13.1 MBWhy is fear real? Why does it continue to exist? Besides the fact that is is hard-wired into us as human beings...it is because we continually indulge the conversation of fear in our minds on a constant basis. If you find yourself consistently being unable to take action, do the things you need to do, say what you need to say, etc....you are just stuck behind this conversation of fear. You're believing in evidence that may or may not be real which is reinforcing your belief that the fear i...

Ep. 304: A Case of Imposter Syndrome
December 03, 2020 12:00 - 12 minutes - 11.8 MBAll too often, we circle between the highs and lows of our lives, one day thinking we are on top of the world and the next day thinking we aren't worthy or capable of anything worthwhile. I used to think this was a weird phenomenon in my own life, but I'm starting to see this is much more common than I previously thought. As entrepreneurs, creators and business people, we are constantly bombarded with tons of things, obstacles, emotions, feelings, and all kinds of other noise throughout the...
Ep. 303: Celeste Johnson - A Running Journey
November 20, 2020 12:32 - 17 minutes - 16.3 MBMeet Celeste Johnson - a wife, mother, runner and great person!

And much more If you'd like to stay in touch with Celeste or follow her journey, you can connect with her on Instagra...
Ep. 302: Friction In Life
November 17, 2020 13:08 - 12 minutes - 12 MBNo matter what you do, no matter what you're trying to accomplish, almost everything in life takes longer, requires more effort, more money and focus to accomplish than you originally planned. It's a simple fact of life. Even the small tasks of your daily commute or doing the dishes, if you think about it, usually take longer than you originally anticipated. But that is ok! Friction in life creates better results, and in it's own weird way is able to filter out those who are truly committed...
Ep. 301: The Social Dilemma
November 16, 2020 17:02 - 13 minutes - 12.7 MBIn staying consistent with the theme of this show, "Run Your Day" - let's all agree that you can't possibly be "running your day" when you're stuck on social media all day every day. It just isn't productive, it's a time-suck and it doesn't give you what you want. The crazy part is that every social network and app out there is literally designed with addiction and constant attention in mind, so it's an uphill battle every single day to fight this. In the end, take a look in the mirror and...
Ep. 300: 300!
November 11, 2020 19:45 - 12 minutes - 11.6 MBI believe that the single-biggest thing holding many of us back in life is our willingness to get uncomfortable and just go for things. Don't be "that guy" who is all talk and no action. I see you. I know you. I WAS YOU. I STILL AM YOU. We all do it - we all stay comfortable for one reason or another. And it slowly and surely kills us. So today - just go for it. Just launch - like I did, when I was scared, uncertain, hesitant and terrified. Just go. Hey! Be sure to download the BRAND NE...
Ep. 299: A Self-Referendum
November 05, 2020 13:00 - 11 minutes - 10.5 MBIn the midst of a presidential election in uncertainty, we can extract a great lesson from this. Every election is essentially a "referendum" on the incumbent - do you want more of the same or change? It truly can be that simple. So inside of your life, if you were to do a "self-referendum" on the various areas of your life, would you vote for more of the same or would you vote for change? Would you vote to remove the person you've been from office and replace you with someone different, or...
Ep. 298: Let's Get Focused!
November 02, 2020 12:41 - 12 minutes - 11.5 MBThe more things you do in life, the more you have what I call "split-attention" syndrome, which is a killer in the world of productivity. You try to do too much, then end up not doing enough, then feel guilty and unaccomplished, then anxiety builds and you feel further behind and you fall further and further behind. It's a viscious spiral. So how do we escape that? Try meditating on a single question: What is the single thing I need to focus on today? Allow the answer to rise within you. ...

Ep. 296: What It Takes
October 22, 2020 13:10 - 11 minutes - 10.5 MBDo you have what it takes to make your dreams a reality? Put simply: are you willing to keep going through adversity and do what it takes, for as long as it takes until you reach your goal? There's no getting around things, skirting things or taking the shortcut. The work is the work and that is the way it is. Question: Where in your life do you know that there is simply a level of things you need to go through over and over until your dream comes true? --- Send in a voice message: http...
Ep. 295: Welcome to The Boring Life!
October 20, 2020 12:03 - 12 minutes - 11.4 MBHere's the deal: If you're going to start a business or try and do some big shit in life, there is A LOT of boring work involved in that journey. It's just part of it. The media we consume portrays this sexy and care-free image of entrepreneurs and big businesses, but it's not real. What you don't see is the boring, monotonous, tedium involved in the actual real work of starting and building these things. Yes - there are parts that are exciting - but the bulk of it is annoyingly boring. S...
Ep. 294: What Are Your Unconscious Directions?
October 14, 2020 12:49 - 11 minutes - 10.6 MBEach one of us has a whole bunch of "unconscious" directions, patterns and behaviors that we follow throughout the day. It might be your commute to work, your morning routine, tasks at work, the way you answer the phone, etc. Many of these patterns are harmless, but some can cause you to go in an entirely different direction throughout your life. The best part about realizing what your unconscious patterns and behaviors are, the better chance you have of correcting them - if it is indeed so...
Ep. 293: Where Do You Find Your Space?
October 13, 2020 13:00 - 13 minutes - 12.8 MBJust because someone says you should work out in the morning doesn't mean you should do that. Maybe you are more productive in the afternoon, evening or late-night. Do what fits your personality, your skills and your routines. Don't try to do something someone else can do just because that is how they do it. Be yourself and recognize where your individual strengths are. Question: Where in your life do you need to change up a routine or your "focus" time to create more space and power for y...
Ep. 292: Your System Is Broken
October 06, 2020 13:02 - 12 minutes - 11.5 MBWhen I say "system" I mean an area of your life. If you take a good look around at one area of your life that might not be working the way you want it to, it might be because you don't have a high level of systemization there. Example: You want to work out and keep losing weight, but you keep falling off the wagon and quitting on yourself. Why? Because you don't have systems in your life to stay on track. You might not be part of a gym or a workout group to hold you accountable, or you jus...
Ep. 291: Go Back Where You Came From!
October 02, 2020 12:08 - 13 minutes - 12.2 MBThere is a problem many of us face without even realize it: We are constantly trying to get back to whatever the status quo was before a change happened in our life. Think about it: You're going along living your life and doing your thing A "trigger" event happens and throws you into a different course or direction You then spend your energy and effort trying to return to the place from which you were thrown off course - a.k.a. the status quo The point however isn't to return to wher...
Ep. 290: There's a Reason For Everything
October 01, 2020 13:00 - 11 minutes - 10.7 MBJust as the Bible says, "...to everything there is a time and a place under Heaven..." This is incredibly true and relevant in today's world. Why are we experiencing a pandemic RIGHT NOW? Why are we experiencing racial and social justice activism RIGHT NOW? You may not understand exactly why something is happening in the world or in your life right now, but there will eventually come a time when you appreciate why that thing happened in that place and time. One thing I've learned throug...

Ep. 287: How To Strategically Take Risks
September 22, 2020 12:09 - 13 minutes - 12.2 MBWhat comes to mind when you think about the word "risk?" Bad things, death, being broke, leaping off a mountain? Risk means something a little bit different to us all, but inside of a business & life sense it usually means doing something with both a potential upside and downside. You might end up better or worse because of an action or decision or thing you're doing. So how do you deal with all the thoughts and worries and anxiety around taking risks and get to a place where you can strat...
Ep. 286: Are Affirmations Legit?
September 21, 2020 12:32 - 11 minutes - 10.8 MBDo you tell yourself affirmations? Is what you're telling yourself actually true or is it a lie? Many people use affirmations in their life to affirm truths to themselves or create something different in their life. The problem is that sometimes those affirmations can be blatent lies. Example: If you tell yourself every single morning, "I'm a multi-millionaire" and yet you make $40,000/year in a job - you are simply lying to yourself. The fact that you tell yourself this daily doesn't make...
Ep. 285: What's Really Holding You Back?
September 16, 2020 12:28 - 14 minutes - 13.1 MBDid you know that "running your day" is actually easy? Weird, right? The only catch is that it's easy once you aren't being held back by anything. Imagine you were running a marathon with 150 pounds strapped to your back. That would make things much more difficult, right? Now - imagine that you shed that 150 pounds on mile 13-14. Do you think it would make the rest of the race easier, even though you still have half of it to go and are probably pretty tired already? All of us have somethi...
Ep. 284: The Lens Of Opportunity
September 11, 2020 12:26 - 13 minutes - 12.2 MBThere are two types of lenses you can view each opportunity that comes to you in your life: Excitement & possibility Obstacle & imposter syndrome A lot of this has to do with our self-identity and how we see ourselves. For example: if you can only lift 100 pounds in the gym, your mind sees yourself as "the 100-pound" person. So if you try to lift 150, there might be an initial freak-out moment or moment of doubt that creeps into your brain, because your mind is telling you that you are do...

Ep. 282: Stay Committed To The Result
September 04, 2020 12:17 - 9 minutes - 8.98 MBWhen you punch in an address into Google Maps, but you eventually make a wrong turn along that route, does Google Maps just shut down on you? Do you just pull over to the side of the road and stop and groan about it? No - you end up taking a different route, but you still get to the same destination. The same concept is true in our lives. Regardless of what you're working for or what you are trying to achieve in life, there will be changes to your route and plan along the way. The funny thi...

Ep. 279: Personal Responsibility
August 27, 2020 12:14 - 13 minutes - 12.5 MBDo you take the blame for something even when it's not your fault? It can be very difficult to do, espescially when your brand or reputation might take a hit, but I'll have you consider that fessing up to a fault or error - even when it wasn't even your fault - makes you better as a person and an authority in the long run. In this day and age where no one wants to take responsibility for any failure ever, it is those who do own up to their mistakes and work to correct them that will ultimat...

But here is a simple 4-step process to help you dig your way out of it: Acknowledge - the key to fixing a problem is admitting you have a problem right?

Ep. 277: Capacity Is Everything
August 24, 2020 12:09 - 12 minutes - 11.2 MBSometimes you just aren't strong enough to pull something off. You might buckle under the pressure or fall short of a target or just get your ass straight up kicked. The important thing to remember is that you aren't a failure or wicked or awful if that happens - you just don't have the capacity to pull that thing off right now. Even if you bite off more than you can chew, it makes you stronger. After all, how are muscles built? They are torn down before they build themselves up again. 2-p...
Ep. 276: Enjoy The Little Things
August 21, 2020 12:47 - 13 minutes - 12.3 MBYou gotta enjoy the little things! The more you do in life, the more you realize that the victory is found in the details. The closer you pay attention to the small details of something - whether it is inside your workout routine, your job or business tasks or inside a relationship - the more you find that nailing those details is what makes the difference. It's like "Any Given Sunday" - life is a game of inches! And when you add up all those inches, it's what makes the difference between ...

Ep. 274: Mr. Grumpy Gills...
August 18, 2020 12:46 - 12 minutes - 11.4 MBHere are 3 ways in which I pull myself out of a bad mood: 1. Breathe - there are a multitude of apps that can help you with this, or you can just focus on taking 2-3 deep breathes (and holding in between) - there is nothing quite like the power of a deep breath. 2. "The Why Game" - similar to how a 2-year old asks, "why" to literally everything you say, do this inside of your own mind as well. Sit down and start with the question "Why am I feeling this way" and answer it honestly. Take tha...

Ep. 271: Upside Down & Turned Around
August 06, 2020 11:56 - 11 minutes - 10.6 MBWhen you change your environment, you may find the tendency to get anxious or excited - or maybe both. The key to remember is that you don't change WHO YOU ARE just because you're in a different environment or situation. You are still you, no matter where you are or what is going on. This might seem self-explanatory, but is still important to remember because in this new world of constant change and turmoil, we can experience different levels of stress due to these new "environments."

July 22, 2020 12:00 - 14 minutes - 13.4 MBWhen it comes to choices - we all face a daily choice: - Be comfortable and stay the same - Get uncomfortable and be weird It is very uncomfortable to be different and weird and "interesting" because most people these days don't accept that type of behavior. There will inevitably be people that persecute you, call you wicked, hate on you or straight ignore you when you decide to do something different. The beauty in that is that it doesn't matter what they think - as long as you are liv...
