LIAM 559 – Shortsighted Goals

Many of our individual and societal goals are shortsighted. The goal of eliminating debt doesn't actually create wealth.

LIAM 557 – Disable Autopilot Mode

We think about 70k thoughts per day; 90% of them are the same thoughts we thought yesterday.

LIAM 551 – The Progressive Apocalypse

Much of my life has been a progressive apocalypse. The word "apocalypse" actually means "to uncover or reveal." Life often teaches us to believe things that aren't true. When we discover this and learn what is true, what always was true, it can feel like the end of the world.

Not all who wander are lost. Most coaching around achieving goals is about having a laser focus so nothing distracts you from the goal. I don't teach this.

LIAM 549 – Anakephalaiosis and the Labyrinth of Life

We are all on a path of life, a labyrinth, not a maze. Mazes have hard blocks, wrong turns, and it's possible to get stuck and lost in a maze. A labyrinth is a continuously flowing path with no wrong turns. When we start to see life from this perspective, we can learn to trust the path and keep moving forward.

LIAM 548 – The Go-Giver Marriage

I've read a lot of books on marriage and relationships. I can honestly say The Go-Giver Marriage by John David Mann and Ana Gabriel Mann is, by far, the best. Written as a beautiful parable (with a refreshingly practical "how-to" section), the story captivated and brought me to tears of joy and inspiration. I had so much fun talking with the authors about the book and why they wrote it. Seriously, regardless of relationship status, everyone should read this book!

Do you have a "winning" mindset? Do you play to win? I'm not talking about a "competitive" mindset. Just the opposite. Competition is about beating an opponent or being better than someone.

Sadly, there is a common teaching that "grace" is something that is given to someone who is unworthy of it. It's not true! Grace is a gift given because you ARE worthy in the eyes of the giver.

LIAM 529 – Time is not the Healer, You are!

People use phrases like "time heals all wounds" or "time is the ultimate healer." Neither of these is true! Time doesn't heal anything, you do! It's what you do with the time that determines whether or not you heal. If you keep telling a story of pain, loss, betrayal, regret, etc., the wound will persist and fester. You heal yourself by changing the story, and by practicing proper self-care.

LIAM 505 – Your Peace is the Most Important Piece

Your peace is the most important piece of the world-peace puzzle. What looks like societies experiencing turmoil is only the accumulation of many individuals experiencing inner turmoil.

LIAM 504 – Plant A Garden

Audrey Hepburn said "to plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow." We only live in this moment. However, how we live this moment is directly shaped by our beliefs about tomorrow. Do you see tomorrow as full of beautiful potential for you and others? If so, hoping for the best isn't enough. You must plant seeds, take action, to harvest your dreams.

LIAM 503 – The Havdalah and Self-Care

We are currently living with a COVID-19 pandemic. There is another pandemic, however, that has been part of our culture for years: Burnout. Burnout is caused by giving to others what we are not giving to ourselves, until there is nothing left to give. The Jewish ceremony of Havdalah is beautiful metaphor for Self-Care. We can only sustainably give to others what we give to ourselves FIRST! Self-Care is a precious gift to others.

There are many people around you who are going through difficult situations and need your help. How do you best help people? You can only help by being what they need, not what they are. If they are suffering, it doesn't help to suffer with them. When they can't see the light, you must be and shine the light for them.

LIAM 484 – Set It Down

It's interesting what we carry. Most of us experienced something painful in the past that we keep thinking about. Within the story about it, we carry the weight of pain, anger, sorry, shame, etc. The event happened in the past, yet we still carry it. It weighs us down and keeps us from living a life of joy and peace. Set it down, whatever the story is. You don't need it anymore!

We all have that voice in our head that is constantly talking, constantly narrating a story. Typically, the story is about the way people/life should be. In the story, there is always drama, always stress, because the story is always about the past or the future. With no story, there is no drama. With no story, your mind can be aware of the present, which always produces peace.

Two teenage girls were about to practice a dance until they saw some adults nearby. They stopped and didn't dance because they thought the adults would judge them.

LIAM 481 – Embracing Pain as Part of Healing

I recently had a conversation with a friend who is going through a dark and painful period of life. She was spending days in bed with the curtains drawn and not interacting with anyone. She used phrases like "this isn't the real me" and "I don't have time for this." After listening compassionately, I reminded her that the pain of the moment is just a phase and part of the healing that will make her stronger!

The word "impossible" is defined as something that is "not able to occur, exist, or be done." What's missing from the definition, however, is the idea of "in this moment." Just because it cannot be done presently, doesn't mean it can't be done in the future. Everything that currently exists was, at one point, impossible.

LIAM 461 – We Are Here Now

Those of us who have traveled with kids are very familiar with the question "are we there yet?" It's usually asked in a whiny tone so we all know the child is not enjoying the journey and wants it to be over now. Many of us set goals and live our lives with an "are we there yet?" mindset. We want to reach our destination, but we are not enjoying the journey. Life, joy, peace, happiness, and love can only be experienced in moment. Learn to say "we are here now" and look for the present signs of life, provision, and abundance in each moment. This will make your journey more enjoyable and meaningful. Listen as I explain: Listen to/download this episode here: Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Android | Google Play | Spotify | Stitcher | RSS Social Media Links: www.BruceVanHorn.com Bruce Van Horn on Twitter Bruce Van Horn on Instagram Bruce Van Horn on Facebook

LIAM 460 – The Hardest Thing You’ll Ever Do

Most people think the hardest thing they will ever do is accomplish some goal, or get through some very difficult circumstance. Those things may be difficult, indeed, but they are actually made more difficult by the actual "hardest thing you will ever do." There is nothing more difficult for humans to do than to think according to truth, regardless of appearance. Thinking according to appearance is easy. Thinking truth, regardless of physical appearance, is the hardest work we must do--and we must do it every moment of the day! Listen as I explain: Listen to/download this episode here: Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Android | Google Play | Spotify | Stitcher | RSS Social Media Links: www.BruceVanHorn.com Bruce Van Horn on Twitter Bruce Van Horn on Instagram Bruce Van Horn on Facebook

LIAM 458 – don Miguel Ruiz Jr.: Love and The Four Agreements

Many of us are living with wounds from conditional love, most of which are self-inflicted. Most of our self-talk is based on conditional love. We are not worthy to be loved by others or by ourselves unless we meet some standard. This is not love. True love is unconditional. True love sees and accepts us as perfect in this moment, which is all that exists. I had a great conversation with don Miguel Ruiz Jr. about this.

LIAM 457 – Growing Pains

My teenage son has grown several inches in the last year and is experiencing growing pains. This is a natural part of the growth process. As adults, we experience difficult situations and talk about the "pains" we feel from changes in relationships, sudden illnesses, etc. We tend to see these as "bad" experiences. Many of them, however, are actually growing pains, a natural part of the process of you growing to become the person you were created to become.

LIAM 456 – Relax to Succeed

Many life and business coaches are teaching you to succeed through hustle, grind, strong desire, and a "get out there and crush through your fears" mindset. This may work for a short time, but that success won't last because it was acquired through competition and force. I don't see that expressed in nature. The real way to succeed is to relax and to release the creative energies within you. You can't create a life of freedom and ease and creativity with force. If you relax, you'll achieve more of what you really want! Listen as I explain: Listen to/download this episode here: Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Android | Google Play | Spotify | Stitcher | RSS Subscription/Social Links: www.BruceVanHorn.com Bruce Van Horn on Twitter Bruce Van Horn on Instagram Bruce Van Horn on Facebook

LIAM 455 – Overwhelm is Epidemic

Overwhelm is a feeling of being buried by a massive weight. This feeling is epidemic throughout our society. The persistent state of overwhelm impacts our personal and professional lives, our relationships, our health, and our culture in general.  It's easy to point the finger at others as the source of our overwhelm, but it's not true. If you are overwhelmed, it is because of how you are thinking, not because of what others are doing. You can bring peace into your life.

Relative to the rest of your body, a little toe is insignificant, right? Wrong! If you injure that little toe, your entire body feels it and your personality is changed because of it.

LIAM 453 – Do It For You!

I received a message from a listener who has made great progress in getting cleaned up and sober from a drug and alcohol addiction that caused him to lose his family. He said he's been able to make great progress because he believes, by doing so, his wife and kids will take him back. However, he's fearful that, after making all these changes, they still might not take him back. This is very common and I have some thoughts about it.

LIAM 452 – You Are Genius!

Genius is not something people become; it is not a certain score on an IQ test, nor is it something that only some people have. Genius is what you are. You are Genius. The word "genius" is a Latin word that means "attendant spirit present from one's birth, innate ability or inclination, the prevalent character or spirit of something." Everyone is genius because everyone has genius within them from birth. Learning to live your genius is the only true goal.

When putting together a jigsaw puzzle, you know that the piece you are holding in your hand is part of a full picture and that, somewhere in the box, there is another piece that fits perfectly with it. You can playfully pickup pieces to see if they match, and you start to see the full picture come together as you join more pieces. Your life is the same way.

Many business coaches and "motivational" speakers are telling you "go out out and make mistakes," and "don't be afraid to fail."

Just because you want something and can imagine yourself having that thing doesn't mean you are ready to receive it.

LIAM 444 – Choose to Be Happy

Are you stuck in a "I'll be happy when..." mindset? This mindset is common in our culture. The mindset looks like this: You'll be happy when you get the money, the job, the house, the car, the health, the relationship, etc. It's a lie! The money won't make you happy unless you choose to be happy when you've got the money. The key is the word "choose." Happiness is a choice. It is choice to think thoughts, in the moment, that produce feelings of happiness. You can choose happiness right now!

LIAM 444 – Choose to Be Happy

Are you stuck in a "I'll be happy when..." mindset? This mindset is common in our culture. The mindset looks like this: You'll be happy when you get the money, the job, the house, the car, the health, the relationship, etc. It's a lie! The money won't make you happy unless you choose to be happy when you've got the money. The key is the word "choose." Happiness is a choice. It is choice to think thoughts, in the moment, that produce feelings of happiness. You can choose happiness right now!

LIAM 438 – Freedom and Independence

Here in the United States, we just celebrated Independence Day. On this day, we talk a lot about freedom and independence, but I think we miss the deeper meaning and significance of both of these concepts. Freedom is not something we get by doing something, nor is it something someone can give us. True freedom comes from within. It is the awareness that you are always 100% free to think and feel anything you want to think and feel in any moment, independent of any external circumstances. Listen as I explain: Listen to/download this episode here: Listen/Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Android | Google Play | Stitcher | RSS This episode is sponsored by Holosync®, the most powerful meditation, brain enhancement, and stress-relief tool in the world!

If I give you a gift, let's say a bouquet of flowers, what is the actual gift? Is the gift the flowers or is the real gift my desire to give you an expression of gratitude for being in my life? The real gift is the energy, the feeling of love seeking expression through me in the form of the physical object.

LIAM 436 – Say “I Do”

Often, when people want to know more about us, they ask "what do you do?" What's interesting, though, is how most of us answer with "I am" statements: I am a coach, I am a podcaster, I am a dad, etc. We live in a culture that tells us to build our self-concept and find our self-worth in what we do. Very rarely do we spend time thinking about and nurturing what we essentially are.

LIAM 434 – All This Time…

This past week, I've been thinking about the old poem "Ozymandias" and the song "All This Time" by Sting. Both talk about ancient ruins of things created many years ago; things, when they were created, were thought would last forever and leave a significant mark on history. Yet, nobody remembers the builders and the things they built now lie in ruin. What are you building? What are you placing significance on? Will it matter a few years from?

LIAM 433 – Is it Kavod?

Self-image comes down to what it is that we value, what we find worthy about ourselves, and what we look for from others to validate that worthiness. There is a Hebrew word "kavod" that means weight, value, significance, and worth. It is also translated in English as "glory," but it always means what is glorious, or valuable and praiseworthy on the inside, not the outside. What do you value about yourself?

LIAM 429 – Forgive to Set Yourself Free

Forgiveness is the most beautiful, precious you will ever give yourself. Forgiveness is a gift you give to YOU, not to other people. When you forgive, you release yourself from all of the poison and toxins of negative thoughts that are highly corrosive to your life. It doesn't mean you stay in that relationship or that there are no consequences for that person as a result of what he did. When you forgive, you set a prisoner free, and immediately discover the prisoner was you! Forgive, not because the other person deserves it, but because you deserve to set yourself free and to move on with your life. Listen as I explain: Listen to/download this episode here: Listen/Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Android | Google Play | Stitcher | RSS This episode is sponsored by Holosync®, the most powerful meditation, brain enhancement, and stress-relief tool in the world!

LIAM 424 – The Power of Habits

We don't determine our futures; we determine our habits and our habits determine our future. One of the things I learned while training for my first marathon was this: you're always training for something. If I get out of bed and go for a run, I'm training to do that again tomorrow. If I skip a run and sleep late, I'm training to do that again tomorrow. It's the little decisions that become habits that determine the direction of our lives.

LIAM 417 – I Am 100% Response-Able!

E+R=O - Many of us have experienced painful, upsetting, tragic events in our lives. Many of us believe we were born at the wrong time, in the wrong country, with the wrong skin color, or other circumstance. It's understandable that we use these events and circumstances as evidence to support a belief in limited potential for ourselves. It's easy to blame the event, but is it fair? Can it really be the event or circumstance when other people have experienced the same, yet have risen above it and thrived? It is not the event. It is your response to the event that produces the outcome. You can always claim: "I Am 100% Response-Able!"

LIAM 416 – The Mind is Always Afraid

Most married men dread hearing the phrase "honey, we need to talk." Why is that? In this episode, I tell a parable about a kind, loving, wise King who appoints one of his servants to manage all aspects of the physical running of the kingdom. The servant loves the job and the authority that comes with it. Over time, the servant begins to think it is his kingdom and that he is the master. Yet, he always knows he is a servant and the King can take back his authority at any time, so the servant is always afraid. This is the relationship between the Mind and the Heart.

LIAM 415 – Transform Your Mind

Transformation means changing, and changing means growing, and growth is scary and often painful. For a seed to reach its fullest expression, its shell must crack and come completely undone. There are 4 stages of transformation and stage 2 is the hardest and where most people give up and go back to being what they've always been. It's the cracking of the old shell, the growing into a new way of thinking, living and expressing your true self. If you can break free, however, there is a beautiful, fulfilling life ahead of you!

LIAM 414 – Self-Employed Mindset

Regardless of who signs your paycheck or where you go to work each day, you are self-employed. You represent the greatest business ever created: YOU! If you feel trapped in your job because there is little opportunity for advancement, it's because you think of yourself as an employee. This leads to a victim and scarcity mindset. People don't buy products or services, they buy experiences and feelings. They buy YOU! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 413 – Personal Branding: Why it Matters

There is a lot of confusion and mixed messages about what a "brand" is and what "personal branding" means. It's all very simple. Everything is energy. A "brand" is the energy a person feels after interacting with a company, their product, or one of their employees. Your "brand" is the energy people feel after interacting with you in any way, in any setting. So, "personal branding" is simply you being aware of this exchange of energy and being intentional about giving off the energy you want people to feel. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 412 – Lotus Eaters and Mega Malls

Mega Malls have just about everything a person could want: food, clothing, furniture, entertainment, and some even have hotels attached to them. You could live in a Mega Mall. In the Odyssey, Odysseus and his crew landed on the island of the Lotus Eaters. It had everything they wanted, including these very tasty plants that kept them high all the time. They forgot about their families, and mission, and goals because everything was so comfortable. What is your Mega Mall?

LIAM 411 – What State Do You Live In?

What state do you live in? I don't mean geographically; I mean energetically, emotionally, and spiritually. When we are born, we have no real ego or self-concept; we live predominately in the Theta energy. As we grow and form our self-concept, however, we descend into Beta energies, where we think this physical life is all there is. In this episode, I explain Beta, Alpha, Theta, and Delta states of being and how to rise up consciousness. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

I meet people who are very passionate about their goals. They want more money, better relationships, to lose weight, etc. Or maybe they don't... People often hit their goals and then lose the money or put the weight back on, and then start the cycle of wanting to achieve the goal all over again. What they really want is to WANT the goal.

LIAM 409 – Static and Red Herrings

It can be frustrating to hear your favorite song playing on a radio station that has a lot of static in the broadcast. The static keeps you from hearing the beauty and purity of the music. A "red herring" is a technique used by writers and speakers to introduce a subject that will distract the audience and keep them from focusing on the main issues--politicians are masters! The ego loves to focus on the static and the red herrings to keep you from finding and interacting with Truth. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Support this episode's sponsor: Love the show?

LIAM 408 – Meditation and Mindfulness

You will know true peace when the circumstances of the external or physical world do not change your internal state of being. In order to do this, however, you need to focus on and develop your internal state of being. Through the practice of meditation and mindfulness, you will find yourself and also find that the only thing that is really real is this present moment. Meditation and Finding the Now are steps 6 and 7 of "The 7 Steps to Stress Mastery" that Bill Cortright and I teach in our workshops and coaching practices.

LIAM 406 – Let It Go

We all know the phrase "thoughts become things." It is true: everything that exists started as a thought. However, scientists have proven that thoughts and emotions in the human body emit a specific energy wave, each having its own unique vibration. So, thoughts do not just become things, thoughts actually are things. If we can objectively identify our thoughts, we can decide which ones are serving us well and which ones are not. If a thought is not healthy for us, we can let it go. "Let it Go" is step 4 in "The 7 Steps of Stress Mastery" that Bill Cortright and I teach in our workshops and coaching practices.

LIAM 405 – Name Your Ego

We fear what we do not understand, and we do not understand what we do not know. God told Adam to name everything in the garden; explorers and scientists give everything they discover a name. Giving something a name helps us know what it is. When we know what it is, we can begin to understand it. So... that voice in your head that tells you everything that's wrong with you and the world needs a name. When you give your Ego, your self-concept, a name, you can understand it and reduce the power it has to create stress in your life.

LIAM 404 – Diet and Exercise for Spiritual Growth

Do you realize that you cannot achieve a state of enlightenment without taking care of your body? In this life, we have a body. That body is the vehicle through which we experience the physical, emotional, and spiritual.

LIAM 402 – The Four Agreements

Years ago, I was introduced to the book The Four Agreements, by don Miguel Ruiz. The book seriously challenged me to look deeply into my beliefs and my behaviors, my "agreements with reality." I quickly discovered I had several agreements that were not serving me well, personally or professionally. In this episode, I break down the Four Agreements and show you how you can use them to create freedom in your life. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 401 – The Domestication of Man

You did not choose your language, your name, or almost everything you believe about yourself, others, and the way the world works. You were taught these things by your parents and other adults when you were a child. You were domesticated the same way we domesticate an animal--through a system of punishments and rewards. Most of what we do is based on the fear of being punished and the fear of not getting the reward. In this episode, I share some teachings from the book The Four Agreements, by don Miguel Ruiz, to show us how we came to be who and what we are. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 400 – The Origin of Fear

Do you live in fear? Your initial response may be "no," but fear is a sneaky energy that shows up in the most unexpected places. Our desire to belong to a certain group, wear certain clothes, have certain friends, etc., is a desire that often originates in fear. What about lies? Have you ever told even a small lie? All lies are born from fear. In this episode, I talk about the origin of fear by looking at the origin of mankind.

LIAM 398 – What’s Your Christmas Story?

There's a very specific reason Christmas is celebrated on December 25th. In the northern hemisphere, it is 3 days after the Winter Solstice, the darkest day of the year. It is the first day that humans can really perceive the shift from darkness to light. This lead me to thinking that this may be the real Christmas story and that each of us probably has one.

LIAM 397 – Restoration vs. Transformation

Restoring old photographs, furniture, or automobiles can be a fun and even creative hobby. Restoring health to a place where growth can begin again is a good thing. However, when we are trying to restore something, like a relationship or tradition, because we think the current one is broken, needs to be fixed, and because life was less stressful the way it was, that is always a formula for more pain. God is always creating, always transforming, always doing something new. Sometime the process of creation looks like destruction. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

I am a man who has done things that I am not proud of. However, if you go looking for me because you have things to say to me about who I was then, you won't find me. I don't live there anymore. Self-forgiveness is the greatest gift you can give to humanity! It does not serve the world for you to live in the energies of regret, guilt, and shame.

LIAM 395 – Evidence of God’s Love

Have you ever received a "random" compliment from someone, perhaps a total stranger? Has someone appeared in your life to help you with something at the perfect time, even though you had not told anyone you needed help? On one level, the person who gave you the compliment wanted to say something nice to you, and the person who helped you noticed a need and decided to help, on a human level. On another level, however, it was God complimenting you and approving of you, and helping you. The people involved were just the channels of Divine communication.

Mark Twain said "It ain't what you don't know that gets you in trouble; it's what you know for sure that just ain't so." It can rock your world to discover what you thought was true isn't. For example, the solid ground you are standing on isn't solid at all; it's just vibrating energy. You may be judging someone for behaving a certain way. What would it do to your perspective to discover that person may have a valid reason for behaving that way.

LIAM 392 – Living Inside Out

We typically do not want to wear our clothes inside out. However, I think we should live our lives inside out! Our society has taught us to live outside in, meaning living in such a way as to bring things, people, love, appreciation, validation, etc., from outside of us into our experience of life. This leaves us always looking for the next thing, the next relationship, etc. to make us feel more significant. Safe, secure, significant, loved is what we already are. The things of our life should be expressions of self worth, not the cause of it. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 391 – Script Your Goals

Are you a person who likes to set goals? Why do you set the goals you do? Do you write them out? Most people set goals by looking at what they have now and then adding a little increase to it. Then they make a bullet list that shows the category and the new goal. It's a very dry, unimaginative process. You should be enthusiastic about your goals because they are an expression of who you are becoming. They should be creative. You should live them out like you are acting out the script of a play! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 390 – Wedding Vows

I had the wonderful honor of being the celebrant at a wedding recently. The bride and groom wrote their own vows to pledge themselves to each other and to express the significance of this event.

Is it a happy fantasy in which you become the fullest expression of who you were created to be and you add great value to the world just by being who you were meant to become?

LIAM 387 – Passion vs Enthusiasm

Are you a passionate person? How does passion show up in your life? What behaviors and beliefs do you attribute to passion? I'd like to suggest you dive deep into the meaning of the word "passion" to discover it is actually a term that means "suffering." Passion is an ego energy that drives us to pursue something outside of us, to acquire it, or master it. Enthusiasm, however, is an energy that comes from deep within us and seeks expression in the outer world. Enthusiasm means "God within." We want to be enthusiastic instead of passionate. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 386 – Be a Celebrant

I invite you to be a celebrant. A celebrant is, quite simply, someone who celebrates.  The word "celebrate" simply means to publicly acknowledge a good, noteworthy, or significant thing or event. In these days where negative things and events get the majority of our attention, we need more celebrants. We need more and more people shining light on the goodness and beauty in life. We need more parties, more laughter, more public acknowledgement of the joys of life. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 385 – More Gratitude

If you want more good things in life, more things to celebrate, you must feel and express more gratitude. Gratitude is the key that unlocks the infinite creative potential of the Universe. It is the very thing that attracts into your life more things for which to be grateful. Most of us have issues with receiving gifts from others, even simple compliments. Yet, by not simply being grateful for each little gift, we block the receipt of more gifts.  Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 383 – Being and Becoming

Someone asked me if living in the now and planning for the future were in conflict with each other. The answer is "no" if you truly understand the importance of each and how they are connected. Our belief about what we can become in the future is the fuel for how we live in the present. Likewise, how we live in the moment directly influences what we will become in the future. By having a clear vision for who and what you want to become, you can enjoy each moment as you do what you can do to become what you want to become.

It's easy to have faith when circumstances are good and in alignment with your faith. The real test of your faith is when circumstances are in direct conflict with your faith. Wallace Wattles wrote: "To think according to appearance is easy; to think truth regardless of appearances is laborious, and requires the expenditure of more power than any other work man is called upon to perform."

LIAM 381 – You Always Are

There are 2 very famous quotes that are used to motivate and inspire people to live a "better" life. The first is "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined" by Henry David Thoreau. The second is "Love your neighbor as yourself" by Jesus. The implication in both of these is that you should start doing this. What's missing is the fact that you always are and always have been doing them. You always are going confidently in the direction of your dreams, living the life you are imagining, and loving your neighbor as yourself. You always are, always have been, and always will. The question to be asked is "what are you dreaming/imagining?" and "what does it mean to love neighbor as myself?" Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

Do you ever have thoughts about being or doing something that get you very excited and you can't quite explain where those thoughts come from? Do you have them often or have had them for a long time? I bet you do! We all do. Every day, we all have ideas that could change our lives and the lives of others for the better. These ideas don't come from us, they come from God. The word "enthusiasm" means "God within" and we need to pay close attention to these ideas and feelings. More importantly, we need to act on them. They are our life's purpose calling to us.

LIAM 379 – What Are You Allowing?

Our emotional, spiritual, and physical experience of life is profoundly shaped by what we believe and allow into our lives. It can be this simple: we want to be praised by people, yet we don't allow it by self-deprecating every time someone gives us a compliment; we want our children to be respectful, yet we allow them to be disrespectful; we want financial abundance, yet we don't allow it into our lives by not taking the actions to produce it or by allowing difficult circumstances to become the reality we settle for.  What are you allowing? Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 378 – Oneness

Often, I will speak with people who are trying to move from their day job to their dream career, or they think they have a personal life that is completely separate from their professional life. Separation is an illusion that we create. There is only one life, one purpose, one path. We are all unique individuals, yet we are one and intimately connected to each other. We live one moment at a time, yet those moments create one life. Once you embrace the concept of oneness, your life will flow with more ease and purpose.

LIAM 378 – Oneness

LIAM 377 – What’s Your Excuse?

What's your excuse? I'm not asking you to list the details of the event or circumstance; I'm asking you to identify the reason you are telling yourself or others the story about what happened to prevent you from doing something. In my work, I hear excuses all the time. People have a list of reasons they weren't able to attend an event, or hire me as a coach, or meet their sales quote, or have a loving relationship, etc. To them, the list of reasons are legitimate. From an outside perspective, however, I see it as form of self-sabotage. When we step outside of our comfort zone, life events will happen and we will use that as a reason for not achieving what we set out to achieve.

LIAM 376 – Creating, Choosing, Allowing

Whether you are conscious of it or not, how you have and will experience your life is the result of you doing these 3 three things: creating, choosing, and allowing. The things of your life are the children of your thoughts, and thoughts you are thinking now are bearing the children of your future. Think about it, look around you, and ask yourself what things and circumstances are in your life because you have created, chosen, or allowed them. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 375 – Question Your Beliefs

Don't believe everything you believe! How many of your beliefs are actually serving you well, giving you more energy and excitement about life? Far too often, we hold on to beliefs, especially those regarding how other people should or should not behave, that cause us to treat ourselves and others badly. In this episode, I walk you through a coaching session I had with one of my clients who had a belief about her husband that was holding their relationship back.

LIAM 374 – I Love Fog

I love fog. Do you? I woke up a few mornings ago to a heavy fog around my house, obscuring my normally clear view of the lake on which I live. Rather than be upset by not being able to see the water and wildlife I enjoy seeing, I allowed myself to sit in the fog and enjoy the uncertainty, the mystery of what would emerge as the fog lifted. This is a lesson we can all apply to our lives. We need to allow, indeed embrace, the moments of uncertainty in our lives. Confusion always precedes learning!

LIAM 373 – Learn to Flow with the Ebbs

I recently had a conversation with a coaching client who expressed frustration with how several situations had turned negative after such a long period of being positive. He, of course, wanted the good times to continue, as we all do. No matter how hard we try, no matter how many good thoughts we think, life is a constant cycle of ebbs and flows, good periods and not so good periods. We can, however, find peace and move through the "bad" times faster if we accept them as a natural part of life and learn to flow with them. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 370 – You are a Programmer

Everyone is a programmer. We are born as empty computers that can be programmed to perform in certain ways. Many of our programs are installed by the adults around us before we are 7 years old. After that, we start programming for ourselves. Many of the programs that were installed no longer serve us well. To live more fully, you must identify which programs are holding you back and begin the process of reprogramming them, or just uninstalling them.

LIAM 366 – Look Deeper

Imagine giving a child a present, a game in a beautiful box with pictures of the game on the outside of the box. Imagine the child being very excited and filled with gratitude, hugging the box, gazing with affection at the box, but never opening it to take out the game or play with it. This is how most of us go through life. We set superficial goals; we look on the outside and never explore the depths of reality. We look at the outside and judge others. It's time to look deeper to truly see ourselves and others for what we really are. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 364 – Goals, Lies, Broken Promises

Many people have given up on goal setting. Even more people set goals, yet procrastinate on doing anything to achieve them. The problem isn't with the goal itself. The problem is with the lie that we have believed that our goals will give us a sense of worth, accomplishment, peace, security, etc. Each time we reach a goal, we expect to feel these things, but we don't. The goal has broken its promise. However, the goal never made that promise to us! The goal is not capable of giving us anything. Stop believing the lie, stop focusing on the broken promises, and start living in the creative freedom of the now!

LIAM 363 – The Prodigal Father

Many people know the story of "The Prodigal Son." When I ask people what they think the word "prodigal" means, they say something like "someone who goes out to live wildly but comes home broken and begging for forgiveness." They link the word "prodigal" to the coming home broken. That's not what it means, though. The word "prodigal" means "someone who spends or gives lavishly." In this episode, I propose that it was not the son who was "prodigal;" it was the Father. Listen to our conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 362 – Break Free with Bill Cortright

Everyone wants freedom. Most people know what they want freedom from. The bigger question, which most people don't know, is what do you want freedom for? If you were able to create the experience of freedom into your life, what would you do with it? How would you live differently than you do now. Everyone wants freedom, but few people know what to do to create it, and fewer are brave enough to take the consistent action required to break free. Bill Cortright and I talk about this and give details about a retreat we are holding in September 2017 called "A Weekend to Break Free!" Listen to our conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 361 – Bruce, are you positive every day?

A client recently sent me an email asking me if I was always "on," always up and positive every day. She described how she wants to live that way, but sometimes she gets down and gets swept up in the drama and emotions of life. She wanted to know how the "masters" live. Well, I'm no "master" but I have gotten better at the art of self-mastery. I have strengthened my ability to be the noticer of my thoughts and emotions, rather than identifying myself as the thinker and feeler of them. By being the noticer and by intentionally choosing which thoughts and feelings I want to experience most often, I am able to experience those states of being more and more often. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 360 – Now is All We Have

We get so caught up in the drama of our lives---the planning for the future, the worry, the thinking of the past---that we forget to notice the beauty of the moment. We absolutely should have wonderful plans for our future, but we only live our lives one moment, one breath, one heartbeat at a time. Very often, in the midst of chaos, confusion, and pain, we don't notice that God has given us something wonderful, right in front of us, to notice, to taste, to enjoy, that may give us sustenance and hope to hold on just a little longer. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 359 – Limping with God

Jacob was the "grasper." He was a deceiver, a liar who relied on his cleverness to get what he wanted or to get himself out of a jam. He was smart and resourceful. People praised him for he cleverness. The problem was that he was scared and operated from a scarcity mindset. He thought he had to fight for everything he wanted. He was actually on the run from God, not trusting in the promise God had made to protect him, provide for him, and prosper him. One night, after losing everything he ever valued, Jacob wrestled with God. He surrendered after God inflicted a permanent wound to his hip. In that surrender, however, Jacob found peace and true meaning in life. He began, from that moment on, to walk with God. However, because he wrestled with God, he walked with a limp. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 358 – Don’t “Should” on People

Don't let people "should" all over you, and don't you "should" all over other people! This episode is a continuation of the previous one about our desire to fix things that might not need to be fixed. When you think thoughts about what other people should or should not be doing, you are creating a negative energy within yourself that is highly toxic. That toxic energy is not healthy for you. You are also assuming that you know what is best for that person, or you are ignoring what might be going on in that person's life that could be causing the behavior that upsets you. Let's take a deep dive into the idea that everyone is doing the best they can and is behaving exactly as they should in any given moment. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 357 – Why Fix It? It Might Be Perfect!

We spend so much energy in our lives trying to fix things, or people, or relationships, or past mistakes. Let me tell you this: You are not broken, there is nothing about you that needs to be fixed. You are perfect as you are on this part of your journey and you are in a perfect process of becoming the fullest expression of you! There may be things we need to fix, like a hole in the roof of our home, or the oil leak in our car, but most other things just don't need to be fixed. We need to stop thinking of these as broken and start embracing change and seeing change for what it is: a beautiful act of transformation. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 356 – Freedom FOR, not FROM

If you look up the definition of the word "Freedom" in most dictionaries, you will find it described as "the state of not being imprisoned or enslaved," or "absence of subjection or oppression." It's interesting to me that dictionaries and most people think that freedom is freedom from something. We want to be free of debt, free from toxic relationships, free from fear, anger, pain, etc. I think true freedom, however, is when we focus on what we really want. Freedom should be the freedom for something! Freedom for full expression of thoughts, feelings, beliefs; freedom for growth, advancement, personal and spiritual development, for giving, for creating, etc. Always be looking forward! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 355 – You MUST Change the Past

You hear it said all the time: "You can't change the past." But it's just not true! Not only can you change the past, I believe you MUST change the past. You have an obligation to yourself and to those around you to change the past, anything that you are holding onto that brings you pain, grief, anger, fear, or any other negative energy. I'm not saying you can go back and change the actual events or the facts of what happened, but you can change the story you tell about it. When you change the story to see the past in a different way that brings you positive energy, that energetic change will produce physical changes in you and in your present reality. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 354 – Changes in Latitudes

Jimmy Buffett wrote: "Changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes, nothing remains quite the same." Oh, how right he was. The only constant in life is change, and we all intuitively know this. Yet, change is something we offer the most resistance to and experience the most pain from when we resist it. Marriages often end because one partner goes through a personal growth that the other partner can't understand or accept. Friendships end when someone gets a promotion, or starts making more money, or starts hanging out with people from a different social class. In this episode, I try to explain why this is so. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 353 – Thinking Truth is Hard Work

When you've made a mistake, it's easy to think negative thoughts about yourself. When you are sick, it's easy to think thoughts of sickness and disease and how the timing of it is not a good thing. When you don't have enough money to pay the bills, it's easy to think thoughts of poverty, scarcity, and have a low self-worth. To think thoughts in alignment with physical appearances is easy. To think truth regardless of appearances, however, is hard work. In fact, it may be the hardest work a human will ever do!

LIAM 353 – Thinking Truth is Hard Work

When you've made a mistake, it's easy to think negative thoughts about yourself. When you are sick, it's easy to think thoughts of sickness and disease and how the timing of it is not a good thing. When you don't have enough money to pay the bills, it's easy to think thoughts of poverty, scarcity, and have a low self-worth. To think thoughts in alignment with physical appearances is easy. To think truth regardless of appearances, however, is hard work. In fact, it may be the hardest work a human will ever do!

LIAM 352 – Resistance is Restricting Your Power

100 Watt light bulbs give off more light than 40 Watt bulbs do. Why? Because the 40 Watt bulb offers more resistance to the natural flow of electricity than the 100 Watt bulb does. What kind of light bulb do you want to be? Do you want to shine brighter than you are now, experience more life, express your true nature and abilities more than you currently do? The only reason you are not living to your fullest potential and free experience of life is because you are resisting the natural flow and expression of the Power within you. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 350 – Ask Better Questions, Get Better Answers

The quality of the answers we receive from ourselves, others, and from the Universe are based on the quality of the questions we ask. If life isn't giving you answers that are positive, productive, and moving you forward, it is because you are asking the wrong questions. If you are asking questions like "how could I be so stupid?", "why do I always say the wrong thing?", "why doesn't anyone like me?", etc., your sub-conscious mind, and other people, are going to give you the exact data as evidence to support those questions! It's time to start asking questions that will yield better, more productive answers. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 349 – Jacob and 2 Women

Jacob loved Rachel and Rachel loved him; Leah was just there for dramatic effect. This is a story of love, dreams, desires, vision, and, most importantly, about never ever giving up and settling for less. Too often, we work hard for our dreams and then give up or settle for "good enough" instead of continuing in faith until we get exactly what we envisioned. I believe our life goals, dreams, and ideas are given to us--we don't create them. Our job it to respond to them and trust that God will provide the resources needed to bring them into physical reality. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 348 – Memorial Day

Memorial Day, in the United States of America, is a day we set aside to remember those who have given their lives in service to our country and freedoms we enjoy. I think it is right a good that we do so. I also think it is right to remember all of our loved ones who have passed on. However, we need to do so in a way that is actually honoring to their lives. If we get caught up in the pain, sadness, or anger of the loss, that is an energy that only harms us and does not honor those lives. Those people would want us to be filled with gratitude for their service, or the memories of good times we had. In that energy, we, the living, can go on to lead meaningful, productive lives. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 347 – Replay: A Great Cloud of Witnesses

This is a replay of episode 60: People ask me why I chose “Life Is A Marathon” as my life’s motto. It’s comes from my interpretation of the Bible verse “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses… let us run with endurance the race that is set before us!” (Hebrews 12:1) The problem is what we believe the “great cloud of witnesses” is saying, yelling, at us. Is it condemnation, criticism and ridicule? Or is it shouts of encouragement, love, and support? How you run your race will depend on how you interpret the cloud of witnesses. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 346 – Why Do Airplanes Exist?

I was recently on an airplane with my good friend, Maimah Karmo. When we hit some turbulence, she got nervous. At that moment, I felt a story well up inside me which needed to be expressed. I knew I was not the originator of the story; it was my job to just be the channel and allow it to flow out of me. I turned to her and asked: "Maimah, do you know why airplanes exist?" What happened then was the beautiful unfolding of a story about why airplanes exist. It's the same story for the explanation of why anything, including you, exists. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

The same is true for us. Everything we say and do is an expression of what is inside us. It cannot be any other way. If you speak a word, you cannot say with sincerity "I didn't mean that." You can say "I didn't mean to say that," but what comes out of you can only be an expression of what is inside of you.

LIAM 343 – You Must Be You!

Dr. Seuss wrote: "Be who you are and say what you mean. Because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind." You have an obligation to yourself, to God, and to the world to be authentically, unapologetically YOU! Be the youest you you can possibly be. To be anything else is to be a fraud, to live a lie. When you are not authentically you, you are stealing from others their right to have a relationship, personal or professional, with the real you! Changing your behavior to please other people is not just unhealthy for you, it is actually a form of manipulation. Just be you.

LIAM 342 – Do You Like Movies?

Do you like to watch movies on the big screen in movie theaters? I do! It's always interesting to be aware of sitting down in a theater with a box of popcorn waiting for the movie to start. I know where I am and what I am doing. When the movie starts and I get drawn into it, I completely forget that I am Bruce Van Horn and that I am sitting in theater watching a movie of my choosing. I become part of the movie. I lose my "I AM" consciousness. When the movie ends, I'm thrust back into my reality and I remember who I am and what I am doing. Many of us get completely lost and caught up in the movie we are watching in our minds. We think we are the movie, we think we are our thoughts and feelings. We forget that we are the observer of the movie and the creator of the movie. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 341 – The Freedom of Self-Control

When someone tells you that you need to have more self-control, how does that make you feel? Not so great, right? How about when you, from your own internal desires, decide to use more self-control, how does that make you feel? Better, I bet! The reason is, in the first case, someone was trying to run your business. In the second case, you were running your own business by thinking for yourself. Self-control, learning how to become aware of and manage your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is not something that limits you.

LIAM 341 – The Freedom of Self-Control

When someone tells you that you need to have more self-control, how does that make you feel? Not so great, right? How about when you, from your own internal desires, decide to use more self-control, how does that make you feel? Better, I bet! The reason is, in the first case, someone was trying to run your business. In the second case, you were running your own business by thinking for yourself. Self-control, learning how to become aware of and manage your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is not something that limits you.

In order to grow, you must have a desire for more life. In order for a society to grow and prosper, it must be filled with people who have a desire for more life.

LIAM 339 – Which “I AM” are You?

Very often, we find ourselves in conversations in which we use "I am" statements. People ask us who we are and we respond with statements like: I am a dad; I am a life and executive coach; I am a podcaster; I am a marathon runner; etc. These "I am" statements are descriptions of the roles we play in our physical bodies. They can actually be who we are if we live in an "I am" state of consciousness that is attached to our physical roles and this physical world. What we really are, however, is Spirit. We are Spiritual beings having a physical experience. If we shift our state of consciousness, our "I AM" focus, to our Spiritual entity, it completely changes how we see and interact with the physical world. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 338 – Be a Lover of Truth

Do you love the truth? Think carefully before you answer. Many people don't want to know the truth. What they want is to know that what they already believe is the truth. There's a big difference! Truth is always peaceful. Truth is not dependent on anyone believing it or not. It does not justify, plead, beg, or try to convince you to believe it. It just is. Lies, however, die if you don't believe them. Lies beg, plead, want attention, offer detailed explanation, and try to convince. It takes a lot of work to keep a lie alive! I share with you how to know when someone is lying to you, and, more importantly, when you are lying to yourself. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 337 – Success Principle: Intention

Nobody accidentally becomes successful. Reaching your goals and living the life you want requires that you know what you want, why you want it, the ability to visualize that life, and the belief that it can be yours. Putting all of that together on a day-by-day, moment-by-moment basis is living intentionally. Live your life with intention, not just for your big goals/dreams, but for all of your daily tasks. Decide what you want to accomplish and how you want to feel when it is accomplished. When you learn how to do this for all of your daily activities, you'll truly discover the power of living intentionally! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: This episode is sponsored by Scott Alan Turner - The Financial Rockstar: Please support our sponsor by visiting their site and learning more about them!

LIAM 336 – Success Principle: Responsibility

As a parent to two boys, I want my sons to always take full responsibility for their actions. If they break something, I want them to simply say "yes, I broke that." No need to blame or make excuses, just claim responsibility. We all want this from everyone we interact with. The hardest person to teach responsibility to, however, is yourself! Blaming other people, governments, economies, etc. for who and what we are is easy, but it keeps us a prisoner to the actions of others. However, claiming full responsibility for my thoughts, actions, and how I have responded to events gives me great freedom to move forward to create the life I want. The more responsibility you claim for your life, the more power you have to change it! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: This episode is sponsored by Scott Alan Turner - The Financial Rockstar: Please support our sponsor by visiting their site and learning more about them!

Whether you like it or not, everything is in a constant state of change. Everything! You are not the same person you were last year, Mount Everest is not the same mountain it was last week.

3 years ago, this week, I was lying in a hospital bed trying not to die from the excruciating pain I was feeling. Spoiler Alert: I did not die!

It was during that period that I learned just how powerful the human brain is and that we can, if we choose to, focus all of our attention on anything we want.

LIAM 330 – Success Principle: An Endurance Mindset

I love all of the technology we have now that enables us to communicate with each other and have access to information faster than ever before. However, this instant access has a downside. It has created an instant-gratification, I-want-it-now mindset. Real life, real success, however, must go through a natural growth process. If our mindset is out of sync with this natural process, it leads to frustration; it causes us to give up and try something new before we gave ourselves the chance to see what we could create had we given ourselves more time. A foundational success principle, therefore, is having an "endurance" or a "life is a marathon" mindset! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 329 – Remove Your Money Thorn with Leisa Peterson

How's your relationship with money? Is it good? Great! Or is it a sore subject, like walking around with a thorn in your foot? We know the pain will go away if you just remove the thorn, but most of us will apply pain-numbing creams, or buy more cushioned shoes before we are willing to take out the tweezers and pull the thorn. I brought back my good friend, Leisa Peterson, to talk about this idea of a money thorn and all of the systems, processes, and behaviors we put in place to maintain the thorn, to medicate the symptoms, rather than dealing with and actually removing the thorn. Listen to our conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 329 – Remove Your Money Thorn with Leisa Peterson

How's your relationship with money? Is it good? Great! Or is it a sore subject, like walking around with a thorn in your foot? We know the pain will go away if you just remove the thorn, but most of us will apply pain-numbing creams, or buy more cushioned shoes before we are willing to take out the tweezers and pull the thorn. I brought back my good friend, Leisa Peterson, to talk about this idea of a money thorn and all of the systems, processes, and behaviors we put in place to maintain the thorn, to medicate the symptoms, rather than dealing with and actually removing the thorn. Listen to our conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 328 – A Winning Start to Your New Family History with Indigo Ocean

We all live by a story we are constantly telling ourselves about our own worth and potential, about the worth and potential of others, and how the world basically works. Much of our personal story is passed down to us from our parents, grandparents, and more distant ancestors. We need to take an honest look at our story to see how much of it is still appropriate to our current lives and whether or not it serves us well. I had a deeply insightful conversation with Indigo Ocean about this topic. She shares some enlightened ideas about how to start a new family history.

LIAM 327 – Success Principle: Focus and Being Present

I used to believe that my ability to multitask was a good thing; that I was more productive by doing multiple tasks at the same time. There have been many other things I believed were true that I have since discovered to be false or outright lies! When your mind is divided it is less efficient. When you try to do two things at the same time, you do not do either one as well as you would if you focused on one task at a time. Successful people have discovered this and have abandoned the myth of multitasking. Successful people focus. They focus on one task and one person at a time.

LIAM 326 – Success Principle: Create a Morning/Evening Routine

F.M. Alexander wrote: "People do not decide their futures, they decide their habits and their habits decide their futures." What we do every day, the habits in which we engage, have the largest influence on our success or failure in life. These habits can be physical acts or habitual thoughts. The things we do and the things we think about most frequently shape who and what we become. Knowing this, creating the habit of a positive morning and evening routine can build a strong foundation for your ongoing success. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 325 – Success Principle: Exercise Your Body, Mind, and Spirit

Did you know that exercise is vital to your success in any area of life? It is! Without exercise, I could not be successful as a parent, a lover, a writer, a podcaster, or a friend. In order for me to truly be successful at these, I must exercise; I must get stronger; I must be growing. I'm not just talking about exercising my body, however. The body is important, but we must also exercise our mind and spiritual life to have complete success in any area of life.

LIAM 324 – Success Principle: Don’t Take Anything Personally

Success happens more easily when you are not stressed out about people or events. The best way to not be stressed out about people or events is to not take anything personally. Therefore, a foundational success principle is "don't take anything personally." This is the 2nd agreement in Don Miguel Ruiz's book, The Four Agreements. What people say or do has nothing to do with you. Once you realize this, you can move through life with amazing emotional freedom, which will yield great success in your life.

LIAM 323 – Join Up Dots with David Ralph

When we are in the midst of a current situation or set of circumstance, especially if they are difficult or painful, it may not make sense. We often wonder why this is happening to us right now. It may seem completely random. However, as we shift our perspective from the present moment to see the larger picture of our lives, we often see how the situations and circumstances of our past actually fit together perfectly to bring us to where we are now. I had a fun and insightful conversation about this topic with David Ralph, host of the popular "Join Up Dots" podcast.

LIAM 320 – Success Principle: E+R=O with Kent Julian

Perhaps the most important success principle that I have learned and applied to my life is the formula E+R=O. I actually learned this principle from Jack Canfield in his book, The Success Principles. Most people, myself included, live with an E=O mindset, which means the events (the things that happen to us) determine our outcomes. If we are happy, it is because good things are happening. If we are sad, angry, lonely, or broke, it is because of events that have caused us to feel that way. This simply isn't true. The truth is it is how we respond to those events that determine our outcomes--how we feel or what quality of life we live. My good friend, Kent Julian, and I had a wonderful conversation about this very topic. Listen to our lively conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: This episode is sponsored by: Please support our sponsor by visiting their site and learning more about them!

LIAM 318 – The Positive Habit with Fiona Brennan

Aristotle said: "We are what we repeatedly do, therefore excellence is not an act, but a habit." We also know that all of our actions are driving by thought, so this variation is equally true: "we are what we repeatedly think!" If we want to be successful, we must think thoughts that cause us to take the actions required for success. Fiona Brennan, a highly respected clinical hypnotherapist, helps her patients develop the habit of thinking positive thoughts. Through years of research and practical experience, she has developed an online, 6-week course called "The Positive Habit." This course has received great praise for its effectiveness in helping people break free from the repetitive cycle of negative thoughts, worry, and anxiety.

LIAM 317 – Success Principle: Integrity

Polonius told his son, Laertes: "This above all: to thine ownself be true." By this, he was telling his son that the most important virtue is that of integrity. A recent study of self-made multi-millionaires shows their #1 character trait is integrity. Being true to yourself, being the same core person with the same core values in all settings is a success principle you should endeavor to live by. It is so much more than being honest. Having integrity means being whole.  Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 317 – Success Principle: Integrity

Polonius told his son, Laertes: "This above all: to thine ownself be true." By this, he was telling his son that the most important virtue is that of integrity. A recent study of self-made multi-millionaires shows their #1 character trait is integrity. Being true to yourself, being the same core person with the same core values in all settings is a success principle you should endeavor to live by. It is so much more than being honest. Having integrity means being whole.  Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 316 – Success Principle: Gratitude

Cicero wrote: "Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, it is the parent of all others." Napoleon Hill suggested everyone "start each day with an expression of gratitude." If you are speaking with someone how has been successful in life, you will probably hear them say that gratitude is one of their core values and habits that has contributed greatly to their success. For me, gratitude has been the catalyst for my personal transformation and the main reason I discovered and embraced all of the other success principles by which I live. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 315 – Success Principle: Faith

You are going to have to believe this to be true: a foundational success principle is faith! In order to accomplish just about anything, you must exercise a certain amount of faith--a belief that something is true regardless of whether or not you can see it, feel it, or logically explain it. Successful people consistently have faith that what they want will come true, what they need will be supplied, and the people who need to be involved will show up at the right time with the right resources. The more faith we have, the more action we can take to accomplish our goals.  Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 314 – Success Principle: Purpose, pt. 2

"Purpose" is the reason, the "why" we want to have, be, or do something. A goal without a strong purpose is a goal we will probably not spend much energy trying to achieve. In this episode, I want to look at "purpose" from another perspective. Many of us have experienced painful, tragic events in our lives. We often struggle with trying to understand the reason it happened--its purpose. Perhaps the greatest ability we have, as human beings, is the ability to think any thought we want to think at any moment in time. Along with that ability comes the gift of being able to decide for ourselves what the purpose of something--or our lives in general--is. I want to help you "restory" your past to assign a more useful purpose to the painful events of life. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 313 – Success Principle: Purpose

So, that thing you just did, did you do it on purpose? I hope so. One of the things successful people consistently do is this: they have a purpose for everything they do! The word "purpose" means: "the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists." Many people are simply going through the motions of life or are simply reacting to situations and other influences without much forethought as to the reason for doing what they do or thinking what they think. You should have a clear purpose, a "why," for all of your goals, all of your activities, and all of your decisions. It's one thing to know what you want. It's another thing to know why you want it, what you will do with it, how it will enhance your life and the lives of others. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 312 – Success Principle: Vision + Desire

Success leaves clues. Studies of the most successful people reveal that they all live and operate according to certain principles. This episode is the first in a series in which I'll talk about these success principles. The first is a combination of two: vision and desire. Successful people have a clear vision of what it is they want to achieve. They see as if it was already real and talk about it like it was the past. Combined with clarity of vision is a very strong desire to create what they see; a strong desire to have, be, or experience the thing they envision. It's one thing want something, and another to see it clearly. Together, however, they create a powerful formula for success!

LIAM 311 – Leadership Starts with You!

There's a lot of talk, these days, about leadership. Leaders need to have a clear vision for where the company is going; leaders need to motivate others and create a culture where people can grow and do their best work; and so on...  All of these are true, of course. However, what is often overlooked and undervalued, is that leaders must start with themselves. You cannot effectively lead others if you are not, first and foremost, leading yourself. What are you doing to lead yourself? Do you have a vision for your own life outside of work? Do you lead yourself to grow physically, mentally, and spiritually? Your #1 priority must be you!

LIAM 310 – Antidepressant Withdrawal with Perzan Irani

Perzan Irani knows how difficult antidepressant withdrawal can be. When he lost his job, in 2008, he started to feel anxious. As the weeks went by, his symptoms got worse, so his doctor put him on an antidepressant. Paxil (paroxetine) is an antidepressant that belongs to group of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Paroxetine affects chemicals in the brain that may be unbalanced in people with depression, anxiety, or other disorders. Paxil is used to treat depression, including major depressive disorder. Read the full article here: my-antidepressant-info The medication helped and he found a new career. Now that his life was stable, he thought he could stop taking his medication. The process of tapering off antidepressants, however, proved to be much more difficult than he ever imagined. He discovered he was not alone in this painful journey. His story of getting off the drugs and creating his own line of supplements to support people in antidepressant withdrawal is inspiring. His product, CleanVive, is helping people all over the world!

LIAM 309 – How to Look for Work

I've recently been asked by several friends, members of my community, and listeners if I have any advice on the job search process, how to look for work, and shifting from an employee to an entrepreneur. My answer is, of course, YES, I have some very important advice on the topic. The core of the matter is the shift in mindset from employee to entrepreneur. The most important professional mindset you can adopt is that of being self-employed regardless of who signs your paycheck. You are self-employed and always represent your own company. When looking for work, you are not looking for a job or a new employer; you are looking for a customer! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: This episode is sponsored by: Please support our sponsor by visiting their site and learning more about them!

I brought my good friend, Chris LoCurto, back on the show to talk about wine. That's right, wine! You see, there's a great similarity between how wine is made---how the grapes are grown, specifically---and how we should try to live our lives. Wine makers---at least the good ones---know that the farming and producing of great grapes is far more important than the actual process of turning grapes into wine. Now matter how good the process is, it must start with great grapes.

Each year, I like to set a theme for what I want to accomplish in the next year. My goals are usually under the umbrella of this theme. In recent years, however, I've started narrowing the theme down to a single word. My word (and theme) for 207 is "Harvest!" Most of my goals are based on the premise that I have been planting, building, nurturing, and cultivating the soil of my personal and professional life. Now it is time to harvest the fruits of my labor. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 304 – Resolve to Feel Good!

The word "resolve" means: decide firmly on a course of action. Most people make New Year resolutions, set goals, and decide firmly on a course of action to keep the resolution or achieve the goal. However, almost everyone sets a goal to have or do something that is physical and outside of themselves. Most people set their focus on the wrong thing. Most people think they want money, health, or relationships, but that's not what they really want. What we really want is the feeling that having those things will produce. What we really want in any given moment is to feel good. Let's let feeling good be our goal. Let us resolve, every day, to feel good!

LIAM 303 – Let’s Talk About Self-Harm

Today we are going to discuss an uncomfortable topic that very much needs to be talked about. We are going to talk about self-harm, cutting specifically. This topic was suggested to me by a 17-year-old girl who listens to the show and asked me to talk about it since this is an issue with which she struggles. First, I'm so thankful for her bravery to reach out to me and her willingness to answer some very specific questions I had about cutting and why she does it. My hope is that, by listening to this episode, you will find comfort if this is something you deal with, or it will bring a greater awareness to you so that you'll notice the signs that someone you love is struggling with this issue.

LIAM 302 – Know Your Value, Value it!

My dear friend, Leisa Peterson, and I had a phone call recently about the value of knowing our own value. Afterwards, we both wished we had recorded it, so we recreated the conversation for you. Knowing and owning your own value, personally and professionally, is the single most important thing you can do to take your life to higher levels of happiness and success. When you know your value, you will not let other people under-value you with disrespect or paying you too little. Knowing your value will bring much greater value to all of your relationships! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 300 – Be Brave with Katie Bulmer

It's hard enough for adults to not follow the crowd and give in to peer pressure. Being yourself, regardless of what others think, takes courage. This is even more true for teens and young adults--especially young women. Katie Bulmer works with college students--sorority girls, to be specific--to encourage them to be brave and to live according to their core values, rather than settling for less! Katie lived the "wild life" as a college student, but found her own bravery and starting living her dream. Now she teaches young women to do the same. Listen to our fun, insightful conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 299 – How is Your Vision?

How is your vision? When was the last time you had it checked? I'm not talking about your eyesight; I'm talking about vision! Sight is what you can see or perceive physically around you in the present moment. Vision is what you see, feel, and believe, in your soul, about who you will be and how your life will be in the future. Your endurance--your ability to go through difficult situations now--is directly proportional to the clarity of your vision. People who give up when things get hard, or bounce from one thing to the next, do so because they lack vision. I want you to have a vision for your life that excites you and gives you a reason to get out of bed every morning. I want you to see your future with such clarity, it's as if it is happening now!

LIAM 298 – The Value of Coaching with Bill Cortright

Professional coaches are not just for professional athletes, entertainers, or executives who are already at the top. They are for people who recognize and feel their ability to get to the top and know they can get there quicker if they get some help and guidance. I often have people tell me they could never afford a life or business coach because of the expense, yet they spend thousands of dollars each year on entertainment and junk food. It's a matter of priorities. I am where I am today because of the advice, guidance, and wisdom of coaches I have hired to help me bring out my fullest potential. I decided to have a conversation with one of my coaches, Bill Cortright, to talk about the value of hiring a coach. Listen to our conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 297 – Finish the Year Strong!

During the month of December, I want you to finish the year strong! If you're close to reaching a goal, do what you can to reach it. Put in a little extra work at the office or at the gym or on yourself. It feels great to reach our goals. However, another way to finish the year strong is, actually, to take some time for rest and self-reflection. At the gym, we don't build strength while exercising--we build strength by resting after the workout. If you've been going really hard, mentally and/or physically, maybe the best way for you to finish strong is by taking some time just for you, to rest, to do some self-reflection, to meditate, to refocus your priorities. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

If you can only do one thing to positively change your life, it should be this: feel and express gratitude! I believe gratitude is the most powerful force in the universe.

Are you  a person who is always on the go? Do you feel like you must always be doing something in order to feel productive and useful? Here's another question: do you feel stagnant or like you've hit a plateau in your life, where you are no longer growing? If so, you need to proactively rest. Rest is active. It is creative. It is healing. It is necessary for growth. Our muscles do not get stronger when we are exercising. They get stronger when we are resting after we have exercised.

LIAM 291 – MasterMind Groups

When like-minded people gather for the purpose of mutual encouragement and guidance, that combined energy and wisdom creates a Master-Mind that is stronger and wiser than our individual minds! Much of my own personal and professional success has been the result of surrounding myself with people who have the same desires for growth and positive influence on the world. Being open to the wisdom, insight, and advice of people I trust and admire has helped me make wiser decisions and take bolder action than I would have without this counsel. Joining a MasterMind group is one of the best investments you will ever make! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 290 – Welcome to Bruce 5.3

On November 8, 2016, I celebrated my 53rd birthday! Each year, since turning 50, I have celebrated my birthday as if I was releasing a new software upgrade. Bruce 5.2 was full of new features and benefits, but I'm not satisfied to stay there. I believe we should be constantly growing, learning, and expanding our experience of life--not just for ourselves, but for the betterment of all mankind. I have many new features and enhancements planned for this next year, along with the removal of unproductive features. I hope you will enjoy and find this way of thinking about your life helpful.

LIAM 285 – Give the Impression of Increase

Increase is what all men and all women are seeking; it is the urge of the Formless Intelligence within them, seeking fuller expression. As you believe and feel that you are an advancing, increasing person, others will be attracted to you because they will feel that, by associating with you, they too will increase. In this episode, I read a chapter from the 1910 book by Wallace Wattles, The Science of Getting Rich. I unpack the idea of seeing yourself as a person who is experiencing increase in life and that you can get what you want by helping others experience increase in their own lives. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 283 – Why Not You?

I recently toured a multi-million dollar home that was for sale. The home was beautiful and sits high on a hill overlooking a beautiful river. The dominant phrase uttered by many who were part of the tour was "This would be nice, it I could never afford a house like this!" Well, I thought, why not? If somebody can, why not you? If someone else can live the life of their dreams, it simply proves that it can be done. It is not something reserved for the "lucky" or the "blessed." That person held certain beliefs about what was possible, made certain decisions, and took certain actions to make it happen. You can do the same thing! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 280 – The Past is Obdurate

I used to look back over the train-wreck of my life and wonder went wrong, what I could have changed or done differently. Can you relate? I spent countless hours playing the "I only I had..." game. That game is a no-win game. You see, the past is obdurate--it is stubbornly resistant to change. The present, however, is joyfully pliable. It wants you to play with it, experiment and get messy with it. It longs to make you happy as you mold it into your heart's desire.

That game is a no-win game. You see, the past is obdurate--it is stubbornly resistant to change. The present, however, is joyfully pliable. It wants you to play with it, experiment and get messy with it. It longs to make you happy as you mold it into your heart's desire.

LIAM 278 – Magic, Ruined, Redeemed

I remembered reading an article about the great jazz trumpeter, Wynton Marsalis, playing a beautiful song that was ruined, at the climax of the song, when someone's cell phone went off. The reporter wrote that the magic of the moment was ruined. However, how Mr. Marsalis chose to respond to the annoyance redeemed the moment and, in fact, turned it into something even more beautiful. I use this as a metaphor for how we always have a choice about how to respond to the events that "ruin" our lives. You have the choice to redeem your life and create something more beautiful that what you think you lost. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 275 – Off the Beaten Trail with Jake Heilbrunn

I love having conversations with people who have taken the road less traveled. I especially love having conversations with young people who have decided to resist the great societal pressures to do what the majority of other young people are doing. Jake Heilbrunn is such a young man. He dropped out of college to pursue a life of his own choosing, which was to buy a one-way ticket to Guatemala. Out of that experience, at the age of 19, he has written his first book: Off the Beaten Trail, A young man's soul-searching journey through Central America.  Listen to our conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 274 – What’s Your Story?

One of my favorite things to do is to have listen to someone tell me the story of their life. I, so often, can identify parts of my own life in their story. Mostly, though, I listen to how they tell it, more than what parts of their life they include in it. How we tell our story determines our belief of what life can be like for us in the future. Our story also attracts people to us. Is the story you are telling yourself empowering you to live a vibrant future? Is it attracting the people you really want into your life? If not, you can, and must, rewrite your story! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 273 – Insults Are Not About You!

Sadly, it seems inevitable that someone will insult us. People will call us names, mock us for decisions, ridicule some aspect of our lifestyle, or just say hateful words to us. Is that our problem or theirs? The words other people speak to us have nothing to do with us. It is an indication of pain and insecurity within themselves. The pain we feel from the words spoken to us, also, comes from pain and insecurities within ourselves, not from the person who spoke them. Words only have power to hurt us if we give it that power. When we realize that a person who attacks us only does so as a result of their own suffering, we can let that negative energy pass through us without doing us any harm.

Kahlil Gibran wrote: "Work is love made visible." How you do your work, whether it is your job or just work around the house, is not a reflection of the task itself, nor is it a reflection of how you feel about the work or the people you are working for. It is a reflection of what is inside you and how much love you have within in you for yourself and for life. If two people can do the very same work and one hates it and one loves it, it cannot be the work creating these feelings. Rather it is feelings that each person brings to the work they are doing.

LIAM 270 – Stop Saying “Easier Said than Done”

With as many social media followers as I have, I often get sarcastic comments to my motivational posts. Perhaps the one I get most often, though, is the phrase "easier said than done!" This usually comes as a response to a motivational quote encouraging the reader to change their life for the better. The comment makes no sense, though. Other than basic bodily functions that happen without our thinking about them, try to name some things that are not easier said than done. The problem is, people use this phrase as a cop-out, as an excuse to not do anything to change their lives.

LIAM 269 – Changing Your Story with Pat McDaniel

I love reconnecting with old friends. I especially love when I learn that, during the time we were apart, they went through a dramatic personal transformation. Such is the case with my friend, Pat McDaniel. Pat and I hadn't seen or heard from each other for 16 years. When we reconnected last month, it was amazing to hear his story and to see how similar his journey had been to mine. I decided to have Pat come on the show to talk about how he got from there to here. Listen to our conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 268 – Every Ending is a Beginning

What do you focus on, endings or beginnings? Do you think about relationships that ended, or jobs, or health conditions that will never be the same again? It is so easy to focus on the loss, the what was but will never be again. However, if you will examine your past, you will find that previous "endings" led you to new beginnings.

LIAM 268 – Every Ending is a Beginning

What do you focus on, endings or beginnings? Do you think about relationships that ended, or jobs, or health conditions that will never be the same again? It is so easy to focus on the loss, the what was but will never be again. However, if you will examine your past, you will find that previous "endings" led you to new beginnings. The end of one relationship led you to another relationship. The loss of one job led you to a new job. Happiness is only experienced in this moment and is fueled by excitement for the future. Shift your perspective to see everything as the beginning of something new and exciting! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

LIAM 267 – Who is Your Right-Hand Man?

We often use or hear the phrase "my right-hand man," but do you really know what it means? More importantly, do you have a right-hand man in your life? Of course, the phrase is not gender specific, so ladies, you are included in this, too. The popular definition is "an indispensable helper or chief assistant." However, the true, historical meaning is much greater than this. Your right-hand man is, literally, someone with whom you trust your life! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show? Click here to Tweet a shoutout!

LIAM 266 – You Have No Private Thoughts

You have no private thoughts. You think you do, but you don’t! You think your mind is like Las Vegas. You think “what happens in my mind stays in my mind.” Well, it doesn’t. All of your thoughts manifest in physical, outward behaviors. The thoughts you think about another person, no matter how hard you try to hide them, control your body language when you are in that person's presence. The thoughts you think about yourself, your worthiness, your capabilities, will directly impact the physical actions you take or don't take in life. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Love the show?

Rachel Cruze is the daughter of Dave Ramsey and has been speaking for many years to her peers, and to anyone else who will listen, about the power of loving your own life, and being grateful for what you have now, as the best way of getting the life you want. She has written a wonderful new book on the topic: "Love Your Life, Not Theirs!"

The owner of the house has not been diligent about keeping the place clean and throwing away things that do not need to be kept. As a result, the house is not the bright, happy home it originally was. However, with some attention and intention, we can clean it up and turn it back into a welcoming living space.

LIAM 256 – Everything Comes at the Perfect Time

Are you currently struggling with worry, doubt, or fear that something is not going to happen soon enough, or that you won't have enough of something when you need it? This is a common story, but a story that does not serve you well, nor will it actually get you want you want. You have lived through difficult days before, and, if you will carefully examine your past, you will find that everything you needed to get you to where you are now showed up at just the right time. Trust the process. Trust that everything you need will come to you at exactly the right time. If it doesn't, it wasn't what you really needed, or it wasn't the right time.

LIAM 255 – QBQ with John G. Miller

Many years ago, I heard Dave Ramsey interview a guy named John G. Miller. They talked about his book, QBQ: The Question Behind the Question. I was curious to learn more, so I bought and read the book. Since then, I have read all of John's books and they have had a profound influence on my philosophy of work and personal accountability. John and I have engaged with each other for years over social media and I decided having him as a guest on the show was long overdue! Listen to our conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: John G.

LIAM 254 – Freedom and Peace are Within

On this day, July 4, 2016, the United States are celebrating Independence Day. On a percentage basis, there are very few people in the world who live under a tyrannical dictatorship. However, the majority of people alive today live under the dictatorship of limiting beliefs, self-doubt, prejudice, and constant negative self-talk. True freedom doesn't come from a government, nor does it come from having vast amounts of money. True freedom and peace is a state of mind which comes only from within.

LIAM 252 – Your Desires are God’s

The things you want to do, be, have, and express want you! That's right, the things you desire, provided they are for your growth, desire you. Your desires are actually God's desires. The music you long to play is God wanting to express that music through you. The things you want to build, write, and create are what God wants to build, write, and create through you. God has placed within you that desire because it is God's desire to express that to the world through you! All that there is of possibility is seeking expression through humanity.

LIAM 251 – Frustrated by “Give and You Will Receive”

"Give and you shall receive" is what we were taught. What do we do when we give, and give, and give... but we don't receive? What should we do when we give love to a partner who doesn't give it back, or hard work to a job that never pays enough? Sound familiar? The Law of Reciprocity says that what you give you will receive, but it often doesn't feel like the Law works. The Law does, however, work and is always working. The problem is that we have rigid expectations about what the receiving should look like and who it should come from.

LIAM 250 – Embrace Change, Don’t Fight It!

Here in the Northern Hemisphere, we just passed through the Summer Solstice, which means the days will be getting shorter for the next 6 months. The opposite is true for the Southern Hemisphere. Nothing stays the same. Everything is vibrating and in a constant state of change. Nevertheless, we often spend great physical and emotional energy trying to keep things from changing. We resist what is impossible to resist. However, when we learn to embrace the changes in our lives, we can see everything from a different perspective. Everything is supposed to change, so we should let it, and find the good in it. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Jump Start Your Life - Ft.

LIAM 249 – Ask for Help. It’s OK!

"I can do it myself!" is a phrase we hear from our kids who are learning, for themselves, how to do the things they will need to do by themselves as they mature. That's a good, healthy, thing! However, refusing to receive or ask for help when we really need it, is not a healthy thing. We are designed to live in community and we are each gifted to give and receive help from each other. For example, I am color blind. I am incapable of seeing the color red or green, or any combinations. If I need to buy a purple shirt for my son, I'm going to need help from someone who can see purple. More than likely, my asking for someone to help me will, actually, make that person happy!

LIAM 248 – Hate, Love, Noise Canceling Headphones

Do you know how Noise Canceling headphones work? If not, I explain how in this episode. But hold on, it's not about the technology, it's about the metaphor. Noise Canceling headphones work by broadcasting the exact opposite sound wave as the noise. There is a lot of negative energy being broadcast these days. Much hate and anger. I will tell you this: you will never get what you love by attacking what you hate. You must generate the opposite energy to cancel out the noise. Love conquers hate, health conquers disease.

What if you woke up tomorrow with only those things for which you gave thanks today? That was a question that totally rocked my world a few years ago.

LIAM 246 – Want for Others What You Want for Yourself

It's a good thing to want more abundance, prosperity, health, and great relationships for yourself. Any teaching that tells you otherwise is a false teaching. All creation exists to grow and expand to become the fullest expression of what it was created to be, and this includes you. However, the most powerful way to get more of what you want in life is through a creative mindset, not a competitive mindset. In fact, if you gain more by taking it from other people, your gain will probably be short-lived. Golden-Rule Jones said "what I want for myself, I want for everyone!" Zig Ziglar taught that you can get anything you want in life if you help enough other people get what they want. This is the fastest way to long-lasting growth and wealth.

Have you ever had goals, dreams, or wanted to make some changes in your life, but the people who matter most to you don't support what you want? I've experienced this and know it can be painful. We want to think that our family and close friends will always be supportive, always be encouraging us to be or do anything we want. However, that often is not the case. In most cases, people give up their goals/dreams because they do not want to upset these people. When you do that, however, you are not being true to yourself, and are allowing other people to chart the course of your life.  Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Jump Start Your Life - Ft.

LIAM 242 – Learn to Recognize and Receive Gifts

Has someone ever given you a gift and, when you opened it and saw its value, you said "Oh, this is too much! I can't possibly accept this!"? What about if someone simply gives you a compliment? Do you self-deprecate? If so, you really need to hear this message. You ARE worthy of any gift, because the giver of the gift has already determined that. You do look nice, because the giver of the compliment has already decided you do! We need to learn how to recognize the many gifts, in many forms, we receive every day and simply say "thank you!"  Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 241 – Your Energy is Attractive!

Albert Einstein taught that everything is energy, everything vibrates, everything is in motion. A thing may look dead, but it is vibrating with energy. He also taught that energy attracts similar energy to itself. He said "this is not philosophy or religion, this is physics!" What is your energy? Are you consistently vibrating positive energy or negative energy? We do not attract into our lives what we want. We attract into our lives what we essentially are. In this episode, I share two very true stories about attracting positive situations.

LIAM 240 – Sifting and Sorting

Bakers use a sifter to make sure only the finest flour and sugar gets mixed into their products. Rock quarries use giant sifters to sort out different size rocks and gravel. You go through a sifting and sorting process to decide which podcasts to listen to (thank you for choosing mine!) However, when it comes to our relationships, we often forget our worth, set aside the sifting and sorting process, and use a begging and pleading process to avoid being lonely. Go back to sifting and sorting.

LIAM 239 – Selfish and Embarrassed is a Good Thing!

You know those ideas you get some times? The ones that are so big, so exciting, so vivid, and make you feel so selfish for wanting them that you're too embarrassed to tell anybody about. Yes, those are the ones you should go after! Those are the ideas that, if you act on them, can completely change your life. The reason we don't act on them is because we are too embarrassed to tell anyone, and because we feel selfish for wanting something that big for ourselves. Being selfish and embarrassed is a good thing! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 238 – Inherited Limiting Beliefs

We all have limiting beliefs--things we believe about ourselves, others, and the way the world works, that keep us from fully experiencing what is possible. I grew up believing I didn't like Chinese food. This belief kept me from actually ever trying it to see if I would like it. I inherited this belief from my parents, who taught us that we didn't like that type of food. It's a simple, silly example, but it is applicable to so many other beliefs. I want to you to explore all of your beliefs and figure out how you acquired it and whether or not it serves you. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 236 – You Have Ideas that Could Change the World

Every day, perhaps multiple times a day, you have creative ideas that could change your life. Your ideas could actually change the lives of millions of people. You have ideas to create products or works of art. You have ideas to say or do things to change your relationships. The problem is you don't take action on the ideas. You let the moment pass, you let the noise of daily living drown out the sound of these ideas calling out to you. Everything that exists in this world exists because someone had an idea and took action to make that idea become reality.

LIAM 228 – Always Believe Something Wonderful IS Happening!

I love the quote "Always believe something wonderful is about to happen." However, the quote also fosters the "I'll be happy when..." syndrome. I'm a firm believer in having goals and believing the future is going to be great, but I'm a bigger believer that the wonderful things are already happening and will continue to happen.

LIAM 228 – Always Believe Something Wonderful IS Happening!

I love the quote "Always believe something wonderful is about to happen." However, the quote also fosters the "I'll be happy when..." syndrome. I'm a firm believer in having goals and believing the future is going to be great, but I'm a bigger believer that the wonderful things are already happening and will continue to happen. Every minute of our lives is wonderful and is constantly preparing us for what is to come next. So I prefer to say "always believe something wonderful IS happening, and will always continue to happen!"

LIAM 227 – 2 Years Ago, Today, I Lived!

April 7, 2016, is the 2-year anniversary of the surgery to remove stage 4 cancer from my body (notice I didn't say "my cancer surgery"). The surgery did not go as planned, there were many complications and they nearly lost me on the operating table. However, it actually went perfectly! The very painful, long recovery period was part of the perfect plan for my life to make me who I am and to give me more messages of love and hope to share with the world. So often we focus on what went wrong, what we lost, what will never be the same again. This focus does not serve you well. I chose to focus on love and living. I chose to focus on purpose and I got very clear about what I want. This focus not only helped me survive, but it helped me thrive and overcome odds many did not think I could overcome. So, yes, 2 years ago today, I nearly died. But the real truth, the real story is 2 years ago today, I lived and I continue to live each movement in gratitude and love. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

How would you behave, view yourself and other people, if your father was the most powerful king on earth? If the king, your father, is not only the most powerful person, but also the most loved and respected person because of his kindness, benevolence to everyone in his kingdom? What if you could ask your father for anything and it would be granted to you? Let's pretend, just for today, this is true.

LIAM 224 – Write Your Own Resurrection Story!

I love the story of Easter and resurrection. Independent of any faith or religious teaching, I think everyone should love the metaphor of Easter. A key part of the story is when the women went to the tomb and the angel said "why do you look for the living among the dead?" Too often, our life is spent vaguely wanting a joyous life, but looking for it among the dead--among negative thoughts, negative people, memories of pain and loss, and limiting beliefs. It's time for you to write and become the main character in your own resurrection story! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 223 – Celebrating My Daughter’s Life!

Today, March 24, 2016, is my daughter's birthday. She would have been 16 years old today. It took me many years to realize that remaining in the pain and sadness of her death was not the way to honor her life. Today, I celebrate birth and life and love. I give thanks for the blessing of having known her physical body for a brief time. I know that she always has, and always will be with me every day, and that she will be always encouraging me to live a joyful, abundant life!

LIAM 222 – You Control the Narrative of Your Life

It starts when we are babies, and continues throughout our lives. People tell us a narrative about who and what we are, what we are or are not capable of, what our worth is. We listen to these voices and the voices that come to us from media and we start to craft our own narrative. Our personal narrative is what determines our self-esteem and, ultimately, the actions we take in life. If your narrative is keeping you small, it's time to change that narrative and start creating a new story! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 221 – Living Authentically with Romal Tune

Raised by a low-income, single mother in the San Francisco Bay area, Romal Tune would have been considered an "at-risk" youth. Through many twists and turns, ups and downs in his marathon of life, Romal learned he was much smarter and capable than he previously believed. However, even after rising to the top levels of society, he still wasn't happy. He had been wearing a mask. Once he made the decision, painful and scary as it was, to live authentically, he found purpose and meaning in life. Now he shares his story to empower people to do the same! Listen to our conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Romal Tune: www.RomalTune.com Instagram: @RomalTune Twitter: @RomalTune www.StudentSWAG.org His book: God's Graffiti: Inspiring Stories for Teens "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 218 – Focus on What You Want to Feel

One of my favorite mental exercises is to put myself into the future and think about the past. If I have an event coming up, I imaging the event is already over and I ask myself "How did it go?" Most importantly, I ask myself "How do you feel about the event?" By imagining how I want to feel when the event is over, I can actually bring those feelings, that energy, into the event before it actually begins. I recently explained this to a man who has an important interview coming up, and, where he was anxious, he is now excited!

Success in all areas of life depends on your ability to create and maintain meaningful relationships. The most important aspect of a meaningful relationship is communication. So often, we think we have communicated an idea or feeling to someone only to discover it was misunderstood or missed entirely. The problem is that it was communicated using a language, or dialect, that the other person didn't understand. Are you a puppy dog, kitty cat, canary, or goldfish?

LIAM 216 – I Am Not My Body! It’s Just a Vehicle

I am not my body! I love and care for my body because it is the vehicle in which I travel and experience this physical world, but it is not who or what I am. Unfortunately, we have been domesticated into attaching our self-worth to what our bodies look like or what they are capable of doing. Almost all forms of prejudice are tied to a person's body: skin color, size, or shape. If we can simply see our bodies as the vehicle in which we travel this world, we can let go of many of our judgments toward ourselves and others.  Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 211 – Endurance is Linked to Vision

Sometimes life is hard, frustrating, painful, and it seems like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Do you ever feel this way? When we feel like this, it is easy to give up or do something desperate to bring immediate relief. Quite simply, where there is no vision, the people perish! When you have a clear vision, a faith that there is an amazing life and light at the end of the tunnel, you can keep going through the hard times. Your ability to endure difficult situations is directly proportional to the clarity of your vision. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 210 – What is Influence?

Some people seem to have more influence than others. Some events seem to influence our lives more than others. The word "influence" literally means "to flow into." It is really about the energy that flows into us, or comes from us that flows into others, that causes us to think or do certain things. I intentionally block negative influences from my life, and I intentionally try to be a positive influence in the lives of others. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 209 – Reduce the Size of Your But!

The primary reason we don’t get what we really want in life is simply because of the excuses we create for why it’s not possible–so we don’t even attempt it. We think about what we want and the voice in our heads says "but..." That "but" is stopping you from living the life you are capable of living. The only thing blocking you from what you really want is the size of your BUT! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

No matter how something turns out, pretend like it was supposed to turn out that way! The more you open yourself up to the possibility that everything in your life has, and always will, happen for your good, the more peace and positive energy you will feel about moving forward into the abundance of life that is already yours. There is no rejection, there is only protection. There is no failure, there are only teachable moments. No matter what you have gone through, or are going through now, tell yourself: Life is good!

LIAM 206 – Life Plan: The Wheel of Life

The foundation of my approach to creating a life plan is dreaming about the life you want to live. You cannot live the life of your dreams if you have not, in fact, dreamed about that life. However, after the dreaming is in progress, we need to get practical about how to bring our dreams to life. This is where "The Wheel of Life" comes in. It's time to break our lives down into categories, spokes in a wheel, and create a plan for each of those spokes. I walk you through the process in this episode.

LIAM 205 – Life Plan: Living Your Eulogy

Are you living your resume or your eulogy? For most of my life, I was interested in accumulating stuff and adding to my list of accomplishments so other people would think I was someone special. I learned that, while some of that is important, it is not nearly as important as living a life that shows how special other people are to me. In the end, I want to know I made a difference your life, that I said or did something that helped you in a meaningful way. I want to live in such a way that you will say nice things about me after I'm gone from this body.

Kimberly Meredith is a Medical Intuitive and Channeler with an amazing gift and an amazing love for life.

I have not met a person who doesn't have any limiting beliefs. I'm sure some people like that exist, I just haven't met them yet.

LIAM 199 – How Can I Say My Life is Perfect?

Can you look back through your life, up to this present moment, and claim: "my life is perfect"? I can! My life is now, always has been, and always will be perfect. The facts are that I have experienced many painful, tragic, heartbreaking events in my life, including bankruptcy, divorce, the death of a daughter, and cancer. Yet, I can still say my life is perfect. You can say it, too! It's a decision you get to make and a story you get to tell to yourself and others.

LIAM 198 – How Thoughts Become Things

Many years ago, Zig Ziglar said "Your attitude determines your altitude!" What he was saying is that your thoughts about yourself, others, and life, will have a direct impact on the life you live. What he was saying is "thoughts become things!" The thoughts you think determine the actions you will or will not take to change your life. If you will focus your thoughts on your dreams, miracles can and will happen!

LIAM 197 – Life Is Like A Train Ride

On January 1, 2016, I received a long text from a good friend. It was a short story about how life is like a train ride. It describes the journey, the stops, the people who get on and off the train, some of whom are significant in our lives some of whom we barely notice. The message is that we should learn to enjoy the journey and interact with the passengers in a way that leave a lasting impression on those who remain after we get off the train. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: "Transform Your Life!" and other live events Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

I believe self-care is one of the most important gifts we can give to those we love. When we take care of ourselves, everyone around us benefits.

LIAM 193 – A Solstice Perspective

December 21st is the Winter/Summer Solstice. It is the day when the seasons change and the amount of daylight for each day gets longer or shorter. It prompted me to think about the changing of seasons, both literally and metaphorically in our lives. Everything that exists is in a constant state of change--our bodies, our thoughts, our relationships. The more we realize that change is natural and learn to embrace or move with it, instead of resisting it, the more peace we will experience in our lives. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 191 – When NOT to Make Decisions

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice. And, sometimes, that's the best decision you can make. I intentionally put off making a business decision the morning of recording this because I wasn't feeling well. I've learned that I don't make my best decisions when I don't feel at my best. I've learned to use the H.A.L.T. principle. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

The difference between "ordinary" and "extraordinary" is the "extra!" However, living an extraordinary life doesn't mean adding a lot of extra activities or doing a lot of extra work.

LIAM 183 – Just Do What’s Next!

I believe everyone should have one or two BHAGs (Big Hairy Audacious Goals), goals that are so big you have no idea how to achieve them. However, many of us, look at that goal, fail to see how we can achieve them, and give them up as unrealistic. The problem is, because we can't see past steps 6 & 7 in our planning, so we don't bother with steps 2 & 3. Take a deep breath and just do what you can do today. Just do what's next! Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 179 – When Positive Thinking Isn’t Positive

I have a reputation of being "Mr. Positive" and it's a reputation I am proud of. However, no matter how much I teach and encourage people to have a positive mindset and practice positive self-talk, positivity isn't always positive. If you use positive thinking and self-talk as a way of denying or hiding from painful truths, you are not helping yourself. In fact, your positivity is creating more negative energy in your life.

LIAM 178 – From Emergency to Emergence

Many of us live from one emergency to the next. While in the midst of the crisis, we ask outward-focused questions like "why me?" "why did that person...?" "why can't I get a break?" and we often come up with answers that leave us in victim-mode. However, asking "why" eventually causes us to look inward for the answer. When we do this, the real answers bubble up to the surface, revealing a truth and strength that we have always had. We experience an "emergence" instead of the "emergency!" Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

We become what we repeatedly do, and we believe what we repeatedly think and say to ourselves. Zig Ziglar often told his audiences to listen to his audio recordings at least 16 times.

"Love is the bridge between you and... EVERYTHING!" is one of my favorite quotes by Rumi. It has also become the truth by which I live and experience my life. I struggled to find ways to cross the chasm that seemed to separate me from what I wanted in life. It wasn't until I started to truly understand love and embrace the truth of it in my life, that I realized that there never really was a chasm. Nevertheless, I learned that love was the only way to get there. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

Sun Tzu said "Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win." Our daily activities may not be "war" but the metaphor still works.

Complaining about your current circumstances is the glue that keeps you stuck to them. Do you know someone who constantly complains about life or another person, yet always seems stuck in that situation? We get more of, or stuck in, that which we focus on. When you are complaining about a person or a situation, you are keeping that circumstance as the center of your life, the exact opposite of what you want. Listen as I explain: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 166 – Be a YES! with Dr. Jessica Higgins

Dr. Jessica Higgins recorded an episode of her Empowered Relationship podcast that really spoke to me. In fact, I had been thinking of doing a show on this very topic. However, when I heard how she handled the subject, I knew I simply needed to share her words with you, because she said it so much better than I could have articulated. When you say "YES!" to yourself, it opens up so many possibilities in life!

If you were going to an event where nobody knew you and you could choose to "be" anyone you wanted to be, who would you be? Most of us have gotten so caught up in thinking about what we need or want to do, we forget that we can also choose who we want to be! When planning your life, it is far more important to decide who you want to be than it is to decide what you want to do.

LIAM 163 – Everything is Coincidence

I have been guilty of misusing the word "coincidence"! A coincidence is not something that happens by chance or an accident. The word literally means to fit together perfectly, or to be perfectly timed. In that context, everything in your life is coincidence--everything happens with perfect timing and fits together perfectly to make up the beautiful jigsaw puzzle of your life.

Do you know you can feel anything you want to feel any time you want to feel it? You can! You are 100% in control of and responsible for your thoughts which produce feelings.

LIAM 160 – Document Your Happiness, Past AND Future

Many people like to keep photo albums and scrapbooks to remind them of the fun times they have experienced in the past. It's great to look back and remember those experiences.

Keeping a vision board of the places you'd like to go, things you'd like to own, and experiences you'd like to have in the future will keep you motivated to bring those into reality.

LIAM 157 – Allowing Your Intentions

Setting an intention is often interpreted as deciding what you want and then working very hard to make it happen.

LIAM 152 – Happy 1st Birthday, Life Is A Marathon!

On September 14, 2014, I took a deep breath, trusted my inner-knowing that I was about to do something that would forever change my life and, I hoped, the lives of many people, and spoke into a microphone, officially starting the Life Is A Marathon podcast! One year and 152 episodes later, I am even more sure that I did the right thing.

LIAM 150 – Dr. Wayne W. Dyer Changed My Life

On August 29, 2015, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer crossed over from this life to the next. His books, lectures, videos, and movie "The Shift" were instrumental in helping me make The Shift in my own life. Dr. Dyer taught me that I could, indeed, change my life by changing my thoughts and that, as I changed the way I looked at things, those things would, in fact, change.  Listen as I talk about how this man influenced my life Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 149 – Make Room for the Best

Good is the enemy of great! We want great, awesome, exciting things to come into our lives, yet we fill our lives with things that are good, acceptable, or just mediocre.

LIAM 148 – Because I Can!

I got up and ran 16 miles this morning. Why? Three reasons: 1) I get to see the sunrise, which reminds me that every morning is the beginning of something beautiful. 2) Because I can. 3) Because I remember when I couldn't. I am learning to take inventory of all the things that I can do and look back to a time when I couldn't do those things. This practice fills me with appreciation for life!

LIAM 147 – Learning to Love What Is with Leisa Peterson

Leisa Peterson, transformational wealth coach and founder of WealthClinic.com, and I had a fun, yet deeply insightful, conversation about how to accept and love the truth of what is present in our lives in the moment.

LIAM 143 – Focus on the Why, Not on the How

Many times, we sabotage our dreams because we cannot figure out how we can make them come true. The problem is the "how" isn't really our business, it's God's business.

LIAM 137 – Beware of Judgmental Thoughts

I was grieved by a social media post from a friend about the behavior of a lady she didn't know. Not only was the post upsetting, the comments in support of the post were even more condemning and judgmental of this woman none of them knew.

LIAM 135 – Life Balance with Christy Wright

Christy Wright and I had a fun, insightful conversation about life's demands and priorities, and how to find balance and peace amidst the chaos. She reminds us that "Life Balance" isn't about making sure we spend the same amount of time on each of our activities. It is about priorities and learning to move with the ebbs and flows of life.

LIAM 134 – What are You Looking For?

Helen Keller said "What I am looking for is not out there, it is in me." Most of us look to the outside world to supply us with happiness. However, I believe that what we look for, we do so through a lens that is representative of what is inside us. If you look to the world and see hatred, pain, loss, and disappointment, that is often what is already inside you. When you fill yourself with love and the appreciation of life, that will alter the way you look at life.

LIAM 133 – What are You Resisting?

For the last two months, I've been fighting a losing battle against fleas in my house. It was really starting to get under my skin and upset me. A friend of mine noticed and loved me enough to talk to me about resistence. The fleas were just the object of my resisting accepting that I can't control everything in my life. When you accept life for what it is, life is much more enjoyable and easier to manage.

LIAM 131 – Rejoicing in the Success of Others

I got an email from a listener asking how to eliminate thoughts of jealousy. When someone gets promoted, gets a new car, or some other good thing happens, do you think "why them and not me?" We all struggle with this to varying degrees. The goal is to rejoice in the success of others. We need to start, however, by rejoicing in the abundance we have right now in our own lives! Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Worry No More! book Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 117 – How to Love the Unlovable

People ask me how I can end each show by saying "I love you!" when I don't even know you. I also get asked how is it possible to love everyone when some people are unlovable. The answer to both questions is rooted in the same foundational belief. Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: "Though we're strangers, still I love you. I love you more than your mask. And I know you'll have to trust this to be true. And I know that's much to ask." - Rich Mullins I've wanted to do this show for a long time, then I got a message from Melissa in Italy. "How can he say 'I love you'? He doesn't know me or most of his audience?" Italians say "ti voglio bene!" which means "I want the good for you!" How can I say "I love you"? I get asked, but how can you love everyone? Not everyone is loveable. Some people are detestable, evil. How do you love the unlovable? There is no such thing as an unloveable person because you are the one making that choice. The mother of a mass murder still loves her child. She may hate what he/she did. Not everyone is lovely, but everyone is loveable! Lovely vs Lovable The Divine, God, is in all of us all of the time. It is the very substance we are made of. At the core of everything is energy. That energy is God. That energy is love. What you believe about yourself (creation, purpose, plan) you must also believe about ALL people. Did God uniquely create you with and for a purpose and not someone else? Did God make a mistake on that one? The Divine in me honors the Divine in you. Namaste literally means "I bow to you". I like 'Namaste' as defined by Mahatma Gandhi: "I honor the place within you where the entire Universe resides; I honor the place within you of love, of light, of truth, of peace; I honor the place within you, where, when you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us."

LIAM 116 – We are Hope Shaped Creatures

Human beings are hope shaped creatures, meaning our hope in the future shapes the life we live today, in the present. You have been invited to a party next week. What you believe about the party and how much fun you will have there will determine how you talk about it and how you prepare for it. I believe the party is going to be awesome! Come dance with me! Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: "Human beings are hope-shaped creatures. How you live today is shaped by what you believe about your future." -Tim Keller Not hope-shaped creatures, as in, we look like hope. Rather, hope shapes who we are, what we do. A couple has been invited to a party next Saturday night. Not many details are given, just an invitation to come. One person thinks it is going to be great, many friends, family, even famous people will be there. One person thinks it will not be any fun, won't like anybody there and thinks that most people will not even show up, or it might must get canceled. How will each person behave in the next few days? How will each get ready for the party in the hours beforehand? Your endurance is directly proportional to the clarity of your vision. What do you believe about yourself, others, the world, the opportunities you have? These shape your behaviors, which determine your future, the kind of life you have. I changed my outlook on life and that changed my life because it allowed me to take actions that reflected my hope. My belief that I am lovable and capable and have many gifts to offer, my believe that the universe is kind, loving, gracious, and abundant... shaped my belief. We all know the quote "step confidently in the direction of your dreams..." The truth is, we all do every day. Some of have amazingly exciting dreams, for some the dream is dark, boring, or scary. Right now may be awful. Right now, you might feel stuck. That's hard to change if right now is where your hope is because that will shape your outlook, which programs your behaviors. If you have a vision for an amazing, fulfilling, giving, contributing-to-the-world life, you will see right now as just part of the journey and you take the actions to move through this period of your life. You will see it as an educational/training process, not the destination.

LIAM 113 – I No Longer Throw Away Pennies!

I used to throw away pennies because saw them as worthless. It was indicative of how I felt about myself and my life. Through intentionally exercising my "gratitude muscle," my entire mindset has shifted from scarcity to abundance. I discovered that happy people are not the ones with much to be thankful for, it is thankful people who are happy! Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. - Melody Beattie I was an unhappy, ungrateful person. Perhaps the main reason for my unhappiness was lack of gratitude for what I had. I had suffered many hardships, setbacks, frustrations, and losses. I focused on that! I became blind to my victories, the success, and the abundance still in my life. When I first heard that happiness was directly linked to gratefulness, I thought "I'd be happy if I had anything to be grateful about!" I had bought into the lie that happiness comes from the accumulation of stuff, the receiving of praise and approval More stuff, more approval, more love from others = more happiness I did not value the things I had in my life because I was focused on getting more, newer, bigger, better I used to throw away pennies! Through the practice of keeping a gratitude log and forcing myself to look for things to be grateful for, I grew a gratitude muscle I learned that it's not happy people who are thankful, it is thankful people who are happy I learned to be thankful for what I had right now, at this moment. Gratitude for what you have opens up the door for more goodness to come into your life But even if it doesn't, I learned that what I had was enough, because what I had was more than what others have--and they are happy I learned that just being a live is all I NEED and everything else is blessing.

LIAM 112 – You are Braver, Stronger than You Believe!

Don't pray for an easy life. Pray for the strength to endure a difficult one. As you get stronger, emotionally, mentally, spiritually, the hard times will continue to you come, but you will be stronger and more able to endure them. A 50lb weight will always weigh 50lbs, but as you get stronger, it will seem lighter. I'll share with you the two most important exercises for training for life. Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Don't pray for an easy life. Pray for the strength to endure a difficult one. - Bruce Lee As you get stronger, you will be better able to handle the hard times. It won't actually be easier, it will just feel easier. My life has not gotten easier (I mean the absence of hard times), in fact, this last year 2014, has been the most stressful year of my life. The difference is I'm stronger now, and I was stronger going into 2014 than I was in 2013. I had been exercising my "how to handle life" muscles. I had been shifting my perspective, and writing a different story. I guess I adopted both the roll of Christopher Robin and Winnie the Pooh, and the Christoper Robin part of me said "Pooh, You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think!" and the Pooh part of me believed him and started living with that mindset. Two most important exercises: Begin and end each day with thankfulness Live with the knowledge that at this very moment, you have everything you need.

LIAM 111 – Are You Stuck in Groundhog Day?

Are you stuck in Groundhog day? Do you do the same things, eat the same food, wear the same clothes, watch the same TV shows week after week? Yet, somehow, you long for more in your life and you know that you are capable living a more vibrant exciting life? Why, then, do we so easily get stuck in a rut? Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: 111 is a pattern. While not all patterns are bad, we often get stuck in them, living in the same routine every day. Eating the same meals, wearing the same close, watching the same tv shows week after week. The status quo is a comfortable place to be. Unfortunately, we get stuck in comfortable misery. We feel safe within the familiarity of our unhappiness. We dislike our lives, our circumstances, our relationships, our finances, yet we do nothing to change them because we actually like the comfort of our misery more than the fear of change. Insanity is doing the same thing, but expecting different results Are you results oriented or process oriented? This show is "Life is a Marathon" not "Life is a marathon finish line and awards ceremony!" I love my work, but coaching can be frustrating when, a week or a month goes by and your client hasn't implemented any of the changes we talked about. There are always a myriad of excuses to stay the same. Most people can get excited about the results, the finished product, but they dread the process of doing the work, so they don't bother to try. Get excited about the process of becoming, more than focusing on the destination. The finish line is not nearly as fun/exciting as is the process of getting there! Mix it up, do something wild, different, shocking to your system!

LIAM 110 – How to Soar Like an Eagle When You Work with Turkeys

How do you soar with eagles when you work with turkeys? An email from a listener prompted this topic. So often, we give 100% and try to do our work to the best of our abilities, yet those we work with do just enough to get by and do not take great pride in their work.

How do you soar with eagles when you work with turkeys? An email from a listener prompted this topic.

LIAM 108 – Self-Talk Determines Success!

Your self-talk is the largest determining factor for your success in any area of life! How you talk to yourself is a reflection of your beliefs about yourself and influences your behaviors. Are you judgmental, harsh, critical, self-deprecating? or are you accepting, loving, kind, supportive, encouraging? Most of us would not have any friends if we talked to them the way we talk to ourselves! Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Webinar: "Lunch with My Life Coach" - E+R=0 how do you exercise the positive response muscle What comes out of you is what is inside of you! Your self talk determines your success "Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right." ― Henry Ford Nobody ever wins who tells themselves they can't. In order to successfully train for and run a marathon, the work is mostly controlling negative self-talk--telling yourself you CAN each and every mile. The minute you say "I can't" the body will stop. Your feet will not go one step farther than your mind tells them they can. I know runners/walkers who come in near the back of the pack and go out and celebrate their victory and are so proud of themselves. I also know runners who come in near the front and talk about how frustrated and disappointed they are with their performance. Somewhere along the line someone told them they'd never be good enough and they believe it regardless of their performance--it is never good enough for them, or for whomever they are trying to please. If being hard on yourself was going to work it would have worked by now.

LIAM 103 – HOPE = Hold On Pain Ends!

"H.O.P.E. = Hold On Pain Ends!" was the title of the message I delivered to the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life Survivors' Banquet on May 2, 2015! For those battling cancer, or other significant health issues, hope is an essential part of their treatment plan. Without hope, there is no point in trying to fight for survival. I believe each of us has great reason to have hope! Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: American Cancer Society's Relay For Life 2015 H.O.P.E. = Hold On Pain Ends! What you're going through, is it destroying you or purifying you?. Is it a curse or a blessing? You get to choose. Many people live in fear--they fear cancer, they fear death & dying. We don't need to live in fear of ANYTHING! In midst of crisis and pain, how do you hold on to hope? How can you be thankful for what you have? Breathing exercise: If you can breathe, you have everything you NEED. The rest is bonus for which you should be grateful. I believe each of us was created for a purpose. The purpose planned by our Creator. I believe that none of us will leave this planet until the moment that purpose has been fulfilled. I don't know what the purpose was for my daughter's life, but I believe her purpose was completed eight days after she was born. That gives me hope. We are always writing a story. Are you writing a tragedy? The story of grief and loss and suffering? Or a story that is filled with adventure, difficulties and trials, but one in which good triumphs over evil and hope prevails. Death isn't the end. It is the beginning. Being born was painful, we struggled, we came into a new world, breathed new air, were greet by many who were awaiting our arrival. Death/Dying is really getting ready to breath again. Mentioned in this show: Help me create better content. Please take this short survey!

LIAM 102 – May Day or Mayday?

Today is May 1st - May Day! May Day is a celebration of Spring, of renewal, growth, and abundance! The hard, cold, dark days of winter are over, the seeds have been planted and it is time to celebrate the abundance and joy of simply living. In contrast, the word "mayday" means there is a crisis, an emergency, and indicates desperate times. Which are you in? May Day, or Mayday? The difference is just a little space! Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Today is May 1st - May Day! Spring is in full bloom, weather is stabilizing, seeds for the fall are in the ground. Your life will not BE great until you decide that your life IS great! The difference between May Day and Mayday is just a little space. If you are in Mayday (crisis, problem, despair) mode, give yourself a little space today. Take some time to stop focusing on all of the problems, the pain, the negative. You get more of what you focus on! Focus on gratitude, victories, goodness, peace, love Take a deep breath, let it out. The fact that you can do that means you currently have everything you NEED in this moment. The rest is bonus--celebrate it, give thanks for it, ask for more of. Think about the future you want in vivid details. Feel, right now, the feelings you will feel when you have that life--you don't need to wait until then to experience the feelings!

LIAM 101 – Tomorrow is Determined by Today!

The Champion you want to be tomorrow is created by the training you do TODAY! Most of us want tomorrow to be better, in some way, than today is. Yet, we don't take intentional steps, today, to make tomorrow better. We get stuck in pattern of doing the same thing today that we did yesterday, yet we are frustrated when things don't change for the better. You can fix this, TODAY! Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Tweet: The Champion you want to be tomorrow is created by the training you do TODAY! Are you happy with your life today? If not, what are you doing to change it?

LIAM 101 – Tomorrow is Determined by Today!

The Champion you want to be tomorrow is created by the training you do TODAY! Most of us want tomorrow to be better, in some way, than today is.

LIAM 099 – Leadership is About Leading, not Managing!

Leadership is not the same as management. Management is making sure people do what they are supposed to do. Leadership is about casting vision, coaching, supporting, nurturing, your team. Leadership is about setting a standard and personal example. Leadership is about being what you want to see in other people. Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Leadership is not about being the boss, telling people what do to Leadership is more like parenting. It is setting the example, creating the vision, motivating, nurturing, training. Leaders are not responsible for the numbers. They are responsible for the people who are responsible for the numbers. It is the job of the leader to make sure the people are supported, trained, have the things they need to get their jobs done. Leadership is like coaching. The leader isn't necessarily the quarterback. The leader coaches the quarterback and the other players Leadership is like conducting a symphony. The leader doesn't play the instruments. He/She sets the pace, the mood, and gets everyone to play their part to create beautiful music. Leadership is about leading--being out in front, setting the example. You cannot expect from others what you are not doing yourself. If you come in late, you can't expect others to not do the same. People will do as you do, not as you say. If you are grumpy, reactionary, gossip, and have a pessimistic attitude, you can expect those around you to be the same. Be an example in every area--take care of yourself, be a vision caster, an encourager, take responsibility instead of blaming. Mentioned in this show: Help me create better content.

LIAM 098 – Core Values: Know Them, Live By Them!

Do you have a set of core values that guide your thoughts and behaviors? You should! It is better to know who you are than to know where you are going! Your Core Values are the rudder by which you steer your life. They let you know when you are on or off course. Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: My oldest son received a very high honor: his school's Core Values award! Jim Collins said "it's better to know who you are than to know where you were going." Athletes know that strengthening core muscles is vital to all athletic performance. These are your abdominal muscles. They control your balance, and posture. In life, it's just as important to strengthen your core values they define who you are and give you balance and posture. More than anything else, as a dad, I want to teach my boys to have Core values . I don't care, ultimately, what their political or religious beliefs are, I don't care what they choose as a career, as long as all of these things are in alignment with their own core values. Honesty. I spent so much of my life living a lie and telling lies took me a long time to get back to the truth. You can feel it in your soul when you are living according to your core values. You vibrate. You're soul sings. You feel light. It gives you energy and happiness that does not come from anything outside of you. You also know when you are living contrary to your values--you lose energy, you feel a heaviness, darkness within you. Maybe not immediately, but soon after, you know what you did was not in alignment with your values. My purpose statement is "to love, serve, and add value to the lives of others" I know when I am living according to my purpose. I know when I am not. I also know that when I am living according to my purpose and values, I can be happy and confident regardless of my circumstances or the people I am around. I have learned to simply leave settings in which people are behaving in a way that is contrary to my values. It is not a negative judgement against them. It is a protective action for me, and ultimately a gift to them and the world. When I am always in sync with my values, I improve and everything around me improves--the same is true for you! When you live according to your core values, you stand out from the crowd. You are different and people notice. That may be uncomfortable, especially for teens. My teen chose to be different, to live by his rules, not his peers. His teachers have noticed that and that is why he won the award. Winning the award was not his intention. Living by his own values was his intention. Let me be candid. I'm not perfect. My friends/family know my moral failures, the times I've fallen. Howie Day: "even the best fall down some times" Vince Lombardy: "Man's greatest glory lies not in never falling, but in rising every time he falls" We are human, none of us are perfect. Strength and evidence of core values is recognizing when you have strayed and taking steps to get back in alignment. Know your core values. Your non-negotiables. Your deal-breakers (especially you single people out there!). Be willing to be alone a while longer, rather than compromise your values. Your values don't need to be the same as mine. In fact they should not be the same as mine simply because mine sound good. Do your own soul searching. Discover your uniqueness. Own it. I want my boys to become men who have discovered and embraced who they are, not who their dad told them they should be. Mentioned in this show: Help me create better content.

LIAM 095 – You Don’t Need to be Perfect to Inspire People!

You don’t need to be perfect to inspire people! You just need to be you. Tell your story, your struggles, your failures with an open, honest heart, and with the intention of giving your story to the world as a gift. Someone is meant to hear your story and use it change their own life. You were given your own story to give away to others. The thought that it, or you, needs to be perfect is a lie that keeps so many people from using their gift. Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show outline: You don’t need to be perfect to inspire people! We spend way too much time listening to, and giving too much credibility to, that voice in our heads that tells us we are not good enough or that nobody cares about our story. That voice is lying to you. Nobody is perfect! If you wait until you are perfect before you share your story with the world, we will never hear it! Think of the people who have inspired you the most. Most of them described the difficulties they faced and how they were not perfect, but how those hardships and imperfections helped to shape the people they became. The thought that you need to be perfect is what keeps so many inspiring writers from writing anything. You never know who it is going to be, but someone is meant to hear your story. Stop striving for perfection. Stop thinking that you need to be better than you are right now. Just be you. Let your life and your light shine into the world. Tell your story. Sing your song. People want to hear it. Trust that it will reach the right person at the right time and that it will inspire them to live and tell their own story!

LIAM 094 – Let’s Get Engaged!

When the storms of life come in wave after wave after wave, it's so easy to just stop fighting for your dreams. However, you will never get the life you really want by settling for whatever life gives you. I want you to engage with life again, to get back in the game, to start dreaming again.

LIAM 094 – Let’s Get Engaged!

When the storms of life come in wave after wave after wave, it's so easy to just stop fighting for your dreams. However, you will never get the life you really want by settling for whatever life gives you. I want you to engage with life again, to get back in the game, to start dreaming again.

LIAM 093 – Personal Branding: Everyone is Self-Employed (Revisited)

It does not matter who signs your paycheck, everyone is self employed! This is the most important concept for you to learn and embrace for every area of your life--not just professional. In every interaction with other people, in person or online, you are marketing your brand. Your employer is not your employer, it is your customer! Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show outline: Life coaching issues Personal presentation is very important Get work/Get promoted Improve relationships Must create foundational mindset for success Can't build sustainable behavior change if mindset doesn't support it Topic: Regardless of who signs your paycheck, you are self-employed The primary factor for success is connections and relationships Your ability to connect with and build relationships with people impacts every area of your life Regardless of how good you are, people do business with people/companies they like and trust "Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude." - Zig Ziglar You are your own brand! You own and represent a brand named You, Inc. You are self-employed You are CEO - casting the vision and direction of the company You are head of Marketing - Creating connections/relationships so people know your name You are head of Public Relations - you must deal with people who are upset with you Most importantly, you are in Sales - you are responsible for getting new clients Embracing this idea will make you more successful in every area of your life Relationships will improve Job opportunities will appear Great companies are built around 2 foundational principles Providing the best products or services Love for their customers and a desire to keep customers for life! What they don't teach you in school Job Interviewing 101 You are NOT entitled to anything - especially a job! You are not applying for a job, you are trying to gain a customer People don't buy features, they buy benefits and feelings Do not say "here are my qualifications for this job, how much will you pay me?" Sell your benefits - how you can solve problems, increase their profit, ease their pain Make it about your customer's needs, not about you or your desire for money Ask questions Do you want your customers to be greeted with big smile and sincere "how are you"? Do you want your customers feel like they are genuinely appreciate and valued so they come back time and time again? Do you have a hard time hiring employees who love their work, show up on time, smile while they are here, and do the work as if they owned the company? If so, here's what you can expect from me.... Love the work you are doing right now! See your employer as your customer See everyone you meet in the course of your day as a potential customer or referral to a customer Do the work you are hired to do with the greatest enthusiasm and highest quality because it reflects on your brand! See the work you do as part of a much bigger picture! The box you just loaded on to the truck is very important to the person who will receive it--it may change their lives The person you are speaking to on the phone has their own set of issues, values, etc and deserves as much respect as you do--they may tell someone about how you treated them. The more profitable/successful you are able to make your customers, the more valuable you become to them. How you interact with everyone, every day of your life--friends, family, neighbors, grocery store clerks--impacts your brand. Everyone in you interact with is a potential consumer of your brand They may want to hire you They may refer you to someone who may hire you They may want to be friends with you They may want to develop a life-long relationship with you Respect and protect your brand!

I want you to live a premeditated life! Premeditated living is simple living a life and taking action based on having thought about what you want to achieve, what the desired outcome is for every action, interaction, decision.

LIAM 091 – My Nightly Routine: Programming My Mind with Good Thoughts

The thoughts, images, and feelings you focus on just before you go to sleep at night are what your subconscious mind focuses on while you sleep. Your last thoughts of the day are the most important thoughts of the day because your mind dwells on them for the next 6 to 8 hours. I think having a nightly routine of focusing on good thoughts, your victories, things you want more of in your life, is one of the most important things you can do for your personal development. Listen as I explain more: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Mentioned in this show: Boston Marathon #Miles4Smiles Fundraiser Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 087 – I Want You to be Victorious!

"Victorious warriors win first, then go to war." - Sun-tzu. Victorious living starts with seeing yourself as already victorious before you actually are. A life lived in pursuit of a clear vision is a life that is not easily defeated or blown off course by circumstances. This is the life I want for you. I want you to have such a clear vision of who and what you want to be that you are willing to go through anything to get it! Listen as I explain how: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Question: are you tired, worn down, beaten down, just going through the motions? Waiting for the day to end and dreading waking up in the morning? I hope this is not you. If it isn't please listen anyway--you will get something you can share with someone else. If it is you, I know what what you are going through--been there, done that, have many t-shirts! I want you to know it doesn't have to be this way! I want you to be Victorious! You ask How? I'm tired, I'm worn out, beaten down, just waiting for the bell to ring. "Victorious warriors win first, then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win." - Sun-tzu Reacting vs Responding, impulse vs strategy It's all about vision! Myopia: a vision condition in which close objects are seen clearly, but objects farther away appear blurred. Greek: literally meaning "trying to see like a mole" My lack of consistent success in most areas of my life was due to lack of vision, lack of clarity about what I wanted, who I wanted to be Yes, habits determine our future, but our behavior directly models our vision of ourselves, others, the world You must visualize the life you want, the person you want to be, the impact you want to make on the world All top athletes, actors, dancers, - all saw themselves being it, long before they became it Life Plan Step 1: The genie visualization Step 2: The cloud of witnesses exercise LIAM 50: Life Plan Step 1: Start Dreaming Again! Create a personal: purpose and mission/vision statement: Purpose: to love, serve, and add value to lives of others Mission: Using the love, wisdom, abilities, and life experiences God has given me, I reach, teach, and empower people to love themselves and others, overcome challenges, think and act intentionally, set and reach goals, experience true peace and joy, and live passionately as the fullest expression of who they were created to be. Now I know how to show up in any situation: a meeting, a call, a podcast, friends, family "Victorious warriors win first, then go to war." - Sun-tzu Your endurance is directly proportional to the clarity of your vision.

LIAM 086 – QCT: Success Comes from Winning Habits

Quick Coaching Tip (QCT): I recorded this on April 1st, which is the beginning of the 2nd quarter of the year, which means 25% of 2015 is already gone.

LIAM 085 – The Zig Ziglar Legacy with Tom Ziglar

Tom Ziglar is the son of the legendary Zig Ziglar, who is estimated to have influenced over 250 million people during his lifetime. Tom spent 45 minutes talking with me about his dad and the legacy of Zig Ziglar. The the on-going work of Tom and the Ziglar team, Zig's influence is spreading farther and faster to change people's lives. Listen to this touching conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show quotes: I was blessed to have the best father a person could ever imagine. As good as dad was on stage, he was even better at home! He brought hope and encouragement wherever he was. When Zig was talking one-on-one with you, you felt like you were the only one in the room! The real difference-making in the world comes when you show people, one-on-one, that you care about them. Dad said you can do whatever you want to do, just do it with 100% integrity and 100% effort. While dad was alive, we estimate he impacted about 250 million people! Every night for over a year I went to bed worried that I had ruined dad's reputation--which was the wrong mindset. Dad's reputation actually got stronger. Be, Do, and Have philosophy: You have to be before you can do, and you have to do before you can have. What you have and what you do can be taken away from you, but who you are can only be surrendered. When I work, every single day, on who I am, the doing and the having are a natural off-shoot of that. Everything is about the scalability of trust. If people trust you, they will want to do business with you. I want this year to be the best travel year I've ever had. I give the flight crew little gifts. I changes the entire atmosphere on the plane. Your attitude is reflection of your character and your character is a reflection of your habits. The greatest thing we can teach our kids is the discipline of creating winning habits. Late in his life, dad lost his short-term memory. He said "I've still got a lot to say so we've got to figure out a new way of do it!" With his memory loss, dad reached new people in a new way who he would not have reached with his full health.

LIAM 084 – The Stress Response with Bill Cortright

Bill Cortright is the author of The NEW Stress-Response Diet and Lifestyle Program, a highly sought-after speaker, trainer, and a seven-time bodybuilding champion. He was significantly overweight as a child and young adult, and was diagnosed with diabetes at 21 years old. He embarked on a life-long mission to discover WHY his body was storing fat and discovered a direct correlation with stress. Listen to treatment diabetes info highly educational conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show quotes: I started my first diet at age 9, and I would go on to lose 100 pounds three times. I was diagnosed as a type two diabetic at age 21 and told I would probably lose my eyesight by 30. I went on from being a fat kid winning seven bodybuilding championships. After looking at thousands of lab results I discovered one component of our metabolism that we now call the stress response. The stress response is our most primitive, hormonal, survival response. It can never be shut off, it can only be managed. People want to get rid of stress, but you can't. You can master the response, but you can't get rid of stress. The highest stress point of the day, for most people, is around 3:00 pm. Belly fat is called the "stress belly" because that's where the body stores fat due to stress. When the stress response is not managed, it shuts down your metabolism. We were designed for survival. When we see the Saber-toothed Tiger, we are meant to react, not to think! The Red Zone is reactive--fight or flight. The Green Zone is responsive--creative, problem solving, recuperation. Problems come when you are constantly living in the Red Zone. To manage the stress response, you have 3 lines of defense: Diet, exercise, mindfulness training The #1 most important thing for managing the stress response is diet! Stress is not going away. Are reacting or are you responding to it? If your Insulin level is above 10, you cannot burn fat. It's simple, scientific fact. There is no bad metabolism. It is either working or not working. There are two types of metabolisms: lions and cheetahs. Exercise is stress. You may be doing the wrong type of exercise for your metabolism type! I've been cheating for 30 years! I have a weekly "junk night" when I eat anything I want!

LIAM 083 – QCT: Hope Must Be Combined With Action To Change The Future

Quick Coaching Tip (QCT): Hope is a good thing and sounds great in speeches, but it is not an actionable plan for success. Many of us hope our lives will get better--better finances, relationships, health, etc.--but we do not take the actions necessary to bring about the changes we want. If you keep doing what you have been doing, you will keep getting what you have been getting.

LIAM 082 – Replay: An Unplanned Night in Chicago

In this episode, I talk about how a missed connection in Chicago forced me to spend a night in a hotel, which led me to doing a not-so-random act of kindness, which produced a completely unexpected result--the Butterfly Effect. This story illustrates how we should always have an open mind to the events in our lives and try to find meaning in them. We should be ever vigilant for opportunities to help strangers, but we should also understand that kindness radiates out and touches people in unexpected ways! Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show outline: I had been in Denver and was traveling back home to Richmond. I knew I had a 3-hour layover in Chicago and had made plans to have  dinner with a good friend. My flight out of Denver got delayed, which frustrated me because I was really looking forward to dinner. My flight was delayed even more so I knew I would miss my connection to Richmond It was around 11:30pm when I arrived in Chicago I took a shuttle to the hotel. It was cold, windy night with a mix of snow and sleet that pelted my face as I dashed from the shuttle to the hotel lobby, where the line to check in was almost out the door. Front-desk clerk was being rude to a young woman whose credit card was declined I checked into my room, but couldn't get the thought of the woman out of my mind I returned to the now empty lobby to find her sitting on a bench crying I paid for her room Thinking that was the reason for my changed plans, I slept well until morning. At checkout, the same clerk was there He told me how amazed he was by my generosity Convinced I had helped the girl and that was the reason for my delay, I told him that there are no accidents in life and that God causes our paths to cross with people for a purpose He stared for a moment and said "I will think about what you have said. For a very long time" It was then that I realized it wasn't the girl I had helped the most. It was the clerk. We need to be open-minded about the frustrating changes to our plans Shift your perspective to be looking for a new opportunity We need to be looking for the potential meaning, or what we can learn from and use to grow out of each situation We need to keep our eyes open for opportunities to help people We need to realize that we never help just one person We benefit from generosity ourselves--personal growth Generosity creates a "butterfly effect" that touches lives in ways we can never imagine.

LIAM 081 – QCT: Watch Your Language! Active or Passive Voice Reveals Your Mindset

Quick Coaching Tip (QCT): Watch your language! Do you say things like "my pants ripped" or "I wanted to ask you a question" or "my boss made me so angry"? If so, this shows a passive, victim mentality. A better way to say these is "I ripped my pants" or "I want to ask you a question" or "I got so angry today because my boss did..." See the difference.

LIAM 080 – Truth Does Not Need Me To Believe It

"The truth doesn't need me to believe it. The truth simply is, and it survives—believe it or not." - Don Miguel Ruiz. This is a profound truth that we all need to understand and adopt into our lives. Truth does not jump up and down and beg "please believe me!" Truth is secure, confident, and needs no external validation. This is the foundation upon which we should all build our lives. Listen as I explore this concept: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: The truth doesn't need me to believe it. The truth simply is, and it survives—believe it or not. Lies need me to believe them. If I don't believe lies, they don't survive my skepticism, and they simply disappear. – Don Miguel Ruiz I think back on the many lies I've told in my life Lies I've told others Lies I've told myself My need for people to believe what I said My need to convince myself to believe what I was telling myself I think of the lies other people have told They had a deep, pleading need to believed Boys, family, friends Core values -- who are you when the facade is stripped away, when nobody is watch, when you aren't trying to impress someone--even yourself Jim Collins said "it is better to know who you are than to know where you are going" When you know your core values and have your foundation firmly rooted in them, that provides emotional security You don't need other people to believe in you or your abilities You don't need to be validated You don't have to do things to get attention, to be noticed, for the purpose of other people telling you how great you are When you live from a sense of truth about who you are, it's like a cruise ship sailing through rough seas Examples: Jesus, Mother Teresa, Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr., etc. None of these begged to be believed They needed no external validation - their value came from within and their faith in a higher power, bigger plan People, circumstances, threats, death, could not move them off course When I operate from my core values, my purpose, I have peace When I step outside of my purpose, I am not living my truth and I need people, I feel insecure "The lies people tell us do far less damage than the lies we tell ourselves." - Steve Keating @LeadToday It's not the lies of others that need to disappear, it's the personal lies, the lies we tell ourselves about our self-worth and need to be noticed and validated.

LIAM 078 – E+R=O Applied with Kent Julian

Kent Julian learned to apply the formula "Event + Response = Outcome" (E+R=O) to his entire life and it has opened doors for him that he never foresaw. Kent is a gifted, highly sought-after, speaker and coach who teaches teens, young adults, and professionals how to reach their fullest potential by applying this simple formula in practical, actionable ways. Listen to this fun, energetic conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Quotes: You have a story, you just need to find the right audience for it. It's not what we do that makes work secular or sacred, it's why we do it. I learned E+R=O from two mentors and that completely changed my life. The worst thing you can do is think, think, think, but never DO anything! The best thing you can do is take action! Read books, learn new things, hire coaches! Always be asking "what is the next best step?" and then take it! You don't know which path to take if you're not actively walking down a path. I felt if I had stayed in the job I now longer loved, I was doing them a disservice. You never really make any mistakes, you learn and grow. A problem is just an opportunity looking for a solution. Thinking is important, but you can think on your feet while you're moving. Take your greatest adversity and turn it into your greatest advantage. That's E+R=O!

LIAM 078 – E+R=O Applied with Kent Julian

Kent Julian learned to apply the formula "Event + Response = Outcome" (E+R=O) to his entire life and it has opened doors for him that he never foresaw. Kent is a gifted, highly sought-after, speaker and coach who teaches teens, young adults, and professionals how to reach their fullest potential by applying this simple formula in practical, actionable ways. Listen to this fun, energetic conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Quotes: You have a story, you just need to find the right audience for it. It's not what we do that makes work secular or sacred, it's why we do it. I learned E+R=O from two mentors and that completely changed my life. The worst thing you can do is think, think, think, but never DO anything! The best thing you can do is take action! Read books, learn new things, hire coaches! Always be asking "what is the next best step?" and then take it! You don't know which path to take if you're not actively walking down a path. I felt if I had stayed in the job I now longer loved, I was doing them a disservice. You never really make any mistakes, you learn and grow. A problem is just an opportunity looking for a solution. Thinking is important, but you can think on your feet while you're moving. Take your greatest adversity and turn it into your greatest advantage. That's E+R=O!

LIAM 077 – No Rejection, Only Protection! No Failure, Only Data!

Relationship breakups can be very difficult to overcome because rejection is one of the most painful feelings we can experience. However, the rejection we feel is all based on a story we tell ourselves about why it happened. Change the story, change your perspective, change your feelings. Listen as I propose there is no rejection, there is only project, and there is no failure, only data: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: In our personal lives: We all experience rejection, it's part of life How that rejection makes us feel is 100% the result of the story we tell ourselves about it. Two of my favorite quotes: God removes people from your life for a reason. Don't run after them! God puts people in your life for a reason, and removes them for a reason. Do you believe there is a purpose and plan for your life? Then you must believe everything that happens is part of that purpose, no matter how painful. To believe it is rejection, is to disbelieve in God's plan, or worse, to assign harmful or malicious intent to God It's all protection. All for the purpose of keeping you on the path meant for you. It's all preparation to shape you into the person you are supposed to be. In the Life Planning I do, it amazes me how many people do their "ideal life scenario" and it doesn't include the person they are with or the job they are doing now, they they are afraid to leave either because of fear. Do you love that person enough to want them to have the best possible relationship with the best possible person? Are you, right now, that person, the person he/she really deserves? If not, get about the business of becoming that person--but do it for YOU! Do it because YOU deserve the best and to be the best you can be. Do it because, when the right person comes into your life, he/she deserves you to be the best. You never know if your paths will cross again Story of college sweethearts, broke up, met again 10 years later, got married. Better people, less clingy. In business/sales: You are in the sifting and sorting business, not the begging and pleading business. You must believe that your product is valuable and not to be taken lightly or used by just anyone You must protect your product from being used by the wrong customer Not all customers are good customers You must protect yourself and your company from low-profit, high maintenance customers You must protect your customers by not selling them something they don't need or won't truly benefit them. "No" simply means it wasn't the right fit for the customer at this time. Do not take it as rejection. There is not such thing as failure, there is only data. Why did they not want to buy Why did you decide it wasn't the right match Mentioned in this show: Boston Marathon #Miles4Smiles Fundraiser Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 075 – Celebrating Life After Mesothelioma with Heather Von St. James

At 36 years old with a 3 month old daughter, Heather Von St. James was diagnosed with Mesothelioma and given about 15 months to live. Now, 9 years, later, Heather is on a mission to education people about Mesothelioma and to deliver hope while celebrating every day she is alive. Listen to her amazing, inspiring story: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Quotes: I only gained 5 pounds during the course of myfastpregnancy. I was growing a tumor at the same time I was growing a child. It felt like a truck had parked on my chest and I couldn't take a full breath. A CT scan showed a large mass on my left lung, which turned out to be Mesothelioma Mesothelioma is caused by exposure to asbestos and typically has a 18-month life expectancy after diagnosis. I can't die. Tell me how we can fix this! I was exposed to asbestos before age 10 because my father was a construction worker who brought the dust home on his clothing. OK, so I have this. Now what do we do about it? There was never the crying out: "Why me, God, why me?!" My daughter gave me the courage because I didn't want her raised without a Mom! There was fear, and there were tears, but mostly there was determination! You have to have a sense of humor. I named my tumor "Punxsutawney Phil" because my surgery was going to be on Groundhog Day. You poke fun at things and it takes the fear away. We celebrate the day of my surgery and call it "Lung Leavin' Day" because that's the day my lung left! We've taken something that could be really bad, the removal of my lung due to cancer, and we've turned into a celebration of life and a night to conquer your fears. Me: Do you ever look back and say "I wish this had never happened to me?" Heather: (without hesitation) No! If I could go back and do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing because it has made me who I am today! I can roll over and give up, or I can make something of every day and enjoy it. You look for the bright spots wherever you can find them!

LIAM 074 – Are You A Philosopher?

A philosopher is, literally, a lover of wisdom. Are you a philosopher? Do you love wisdom? Do you seek wisdom like a parent would seek a lost child? I hope so! Listen as I talk about why it is so important love our human ability to think, to rationalize, and to be aware that our thoughts are what create our lives: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Quotes: From Winnie The Pooh: "If ever there's a tomorrow when we're not together, there's something you must remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." Are you a "Philosopher"? I contend that you are! From Dictionary.com: Philosopher A person who regulates his or her life, actions, judgments, utterances, etc., by the light of philosophy or reason. A person who is rationally or sensibly calm, especially under trying circumstances. "Philosopher" literally, a lover of wisdom What is wisdom? (from Dictionary.com) Knowledge of what is true or right coupled with just judgment as to action; sagacity, discernment, or insight. The ability or result of an ability to think and act using knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense, and insight The ability to see the future consequences of today's actions Basically: living intentionally! I want you to fall in love with your ability to think and act intentionally. To not just go through the motions, letting life happen to you. Instead happening to your life, questioning the reasons behind your thoughts and changing them if they don't support the you you want to be or the world you want to live in. I discovered in my own life that I did not have a financial problem, or a weight problem, or a relationship problem, or a lack of opportunities problem. I had a thought problem! The life you live (experience/feel) is not the result of your circumstances or events outside of your control. It is 100% the result of your thoughts. If you are happy or unhappy, it is the result of your thoughts. If you feel loved/unloved, appreciated/unappreciated, respected/disrespected, etc, it is the result of your thoughts about yourself, other people, and the world. To change your life, you must change your thoughts! In order to change your thoughts, you must do the simplest, yet, surprising the the most difficult thing: you must THINK! You must think your own thoughts, not the thoughts that were passed down to you, programmed into you by other people, parents, teachers, religions. Think your own thoughts, thoughts that support who you are, what you want to believe about yourself, people, god, the universe. Own it. Only when you own your own thoughts and faith can you truly live it with peace and confidence. Do you love wisdom? Do you long for it, seek it like a parent would look for a lost child? Do you want, will all your heart, to be wise, to make wise decisions, to slow down and ask yourself "is this wise?" Every thought, decision, action has future consequences. Are you thinking about them? Are they creating the you you want to be in five minutes, five weeks, five months, five years? I know the answer to these questions is yes! Maybe not yesterday, but as of today, the answer is yes! You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. You are wise, you embody wisdom! And since a philosopher is a lover of wisdom, and I am a philosopher, I love you!

LIAM 073 – Self-Worth: A Conversation with Chris LoCurto

Chris LoCurto is a business and life coach who has changed the lives of many people, and the success of many businesses, with his wisdom and consistent message of hope and personal accountability. Listen as Chris and I have a conversation about the victim mentality and finding the true source of our self-worth: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Quotes: A victim mentality says: I can't make life any better than this. People, understand you are in control of your life; you are in control of outcomes; spending time being a victim does nothing but hold you back. I stopped skiing, I stopped watching the Olympics, and I ended up missing out, for years, on something I absolutely loved because of my victim mentality. That was a turning point in my life. Do the things that you can do. If you can't get what you want, find a way to get what you want. If you can't do that, be content where you are. Being bitter at another person is like drinking cyanide and expecting the other person to die. Having a victim mentality is like trying to hurt your circumstance and you are the one who ends up getting hurt in the long run. There are people getting hurt because they are trying to find their identity, their self-worth, in people. A person cannot give you self-worth longer than about 30-seconds! People gossip at work because they don't have a leader who listens! A Jewish concept of worship is "workship"! We worship God by how we treat his children. Work is worship. How you treat others is worship. I don't get my self-esteem from my customers, I get it from God.

LIAM 072 – Self-Care is NOT Selfish!

Many people, with good intentions, think they should give all they have in the service of others. They think taking time away to do something fun, relaxing, for personal development just for them, is an act of selfishness. Self-care is NOT selfish! Listen as I explain how taking care of yourself is, actually, the most generous thing you can do: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Question: Who is the most important person in the world? The President, the Pope, your spouse, your children? No. It's YOU!! You have to take care of your car or it doesn't run. If you are a business owner, you have to invest in and take care of the equipment needed to produce your product or you'll be out of business! You cannot be the greatest mom, dad, business person, athlete, care-giver, financial investor.... if you don't exist! The most valuable asset you will ever own, the best investment you will ever make, is YOU!! Self-Care is NOT Selfish! Secure the oxygen mask to our own face first, in the case of an emergency on an airplane. It is very hard to care for the people around you if you are gasping for breath and struggling for your own survival. I meet so many people, who are near the point of burnout from caring for others, who are reluctant to take a mental and physical health break, because they feel it would be selfish to do so. You owe it to the people you care for to take good care of yourself! You cannot continue to give the best level of care if you are depleting all of your physical and emotional resources. Having strong work-ethic and caring about your job is admirable, but you are actually doing your company a disservice by not taking care of yourself, physically or emotionally. If you have a mental breakdown, get sick, or just lose stamina because you are exhausted, you will not be able to perform your work--therefore hurting the company you are trying to help, therefore having a bad work ethic! Most churches hold annual women’s retreats. Often, women who are reluctant to go because they feel guilty about taking a weekend away from their husbands and children to go away with a group of other women to "retreat." I take occasional weekend retreats to be alone, rest, think and write. I always come back with more energy and creative ideas than before I left. In fact, my boys will sometimes recognize the symptoms and say "Dad, maybe it’s time for you to take a retreat." Sometimes the best strategy for moving forward is a brief retreat! Please, for the sake of everyone who needs you, take care of yourself first. We need you to be your best! Here are just a few things you can to do to invest in yourself: Consistently get a good night's rest. Fatigue from lack of sleep is very dangerous to your physical and mental health. Eat well and exercise regularly. Your body is a priceless piece of equipment; treat it that way. Spend quality, unplugged, time away from work with your family and friends. Really, have a life. Feed your brain a regular diet of good books, both fiction and non-fiction, unrelated to your occupation. Join a "mastermind group" of people who will encourage, educate and support you. There's no shame in getting help. In fact, it is wise! If you are near or already to the point of burnout, seek the professional help a counselor or life coach. The most important point, here, is to realize your company, your family, your dependents, your friends, in fact, the whole world, needs you to be the best possible you. Invest in yourself. As you take care of yourself and improve yourself, those around you benefit and are, themselves, improved. Self-care is not selfish. It may be the most generous thing you can do!

They think taking time away to do something fun, relaxing, for personal development just for them, is an act of selfishness. Self-care is NOT selfish! Listen as I explain how taking care of yourself is, actually, the most generous thing you can do: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Question: Who is the most important person in the world? The President, the Pope, your spouse, your children? No. It's YOU!! You have to take care of your car or it doesn't run. If you are a business owner, you have to invest in and take care of the equipment needed to produce your product or you'll be out of business! You cannot be the greatest mom, dad, business person, athlete, care-giver, financial investor.... if you don't exist! The most valuable asset you will ever own, the best investment you will ever make, is YOU!! Self-Care is NOT Selfish! Secure the oxygen mask to our own face first, in the case of an emergency on an airplane. It is very hard to care for the people around you if you are gasping for breath and struggling for your own survival. I meet so many people, who are near the point of burnout from caring for others, who are reluctant to take a mental and physical health break, because they feel it would be selfish to do so. You owe it to the people you care for to take good care of yourself! You cannot continue to give the best level of care if you are depleting all of your physical and emotional resources. Having strong work-ethic and caring about your job is admirable, but you are actually doing your company a disservice by not taking care of yourself, physically or emotionally. If you have a mental breakdown, get sick, or just lose stamina because you are exhausted, you will not be able to perform your work--therefore hurting the company you are trying to help, therefore having a bad work ethic! Most churches hold annual women’s retreats. Often, women who are reluctant to go because they feel guilty about taking a weekend away from their husbands and children to go away with a group of other women to "retreat." I take occasional weekend retreats to be alone, rest, think and write. I always come back with more energy and creative ideas than before I left. In fact, my boys will sometimes recognize the symptoms and say "Dad, maybe it’s time for you to take a retreat." Sometimes the best strategy for moving forward is a brief retreat! Please, for the sake of everyone who needs you, take care of yourself first. We need you to be your best! Here are just a few things you can to do to invest in yourself: Consistently get a good night's rest. Fatigue from lack of sleep is very dangerous to your physical and mental health. Eat well and exercise regularly. Your body is a priceless piece of equipment; treat it that way. Spend quality, unplugged, time away from work with your family and friends. Really, have a life. Feed your brain a regular diet of good books, both fiction and non-fiction, unrelated to your occupation. Join a "mastermind group" of people who will encourage, educate and support you. There's no shame in getting help. In fact, it is wise! If you are near or already to the point of burnout, seek the professional help a counselor or life coach. The most important point, here, is to realize your company, your family, your dependents, your friends, in fact, the whole world, needs you to be the best possible you. Invest in yourself. As you take care of yourself and improve yourself, those around you benefit and are, themselves, improved. Self-care is not selfish. It may be the most generous thing you can do!

LIAM 071 – What Comes Out When You Get Squeezed?

What comes out of you when you get squeezed? When a squeeze an orange, orange juice comes out because that's what's inside. Stressful situations do not bring out the worst in us, they just reveal what is in us. Listen as I talk about this metaphor and use two real-life examples of how two beautiful people responded to very stressful situations: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Grocery store: man just verbally assaulted the cashier--a girl, maybe 19-20 years old--for some mistake she made. She wiped tears from her eyes. I apologized for his behavior to comfort her. She said it was OK, that she actually felt sorry for him. "He must be really hurting inside"! My good friend, Jaime Primak-Sullivan, was on the Delta Airlines plane that crashed on Thursday, 3/5/15, in New York City. The next morning, she appeared on NBC's TODAY Show. I'm so proud of how she handled herself--really showed who she is and what is in her heart. Dr. Wayne Dyer: When you squeeze an orange, you'll always get orange juice to come out. What comes out is what's inside. The same logic applies to you: when someone squeezes you, puts pressure on you, or says something unflattering or critical, and out of you comes anger, hatred, bitterness, tension, depression, or anxiety, that is what's inside. If love and joy are what you want to give and receive, change your life by changing what's inside. So the question is this: what comes out when you get squeezed? Is it anger, judgment, resentment, envy, distrust, cynicism, fear, hatred, rage, why me, victim thinking? Or is it love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control, compassion, trust there is a purpose, faith you will get through it, knowing that it isn't about you--it's about them. Have you ever just snapped at someone, not meaning to, and thought "wow, where did that come from?" It's a good question. The answer is "it came from somewhere inside me and I need to find the source of poison and heal it." Ultimately, the poison that comes out of us comes from a place that is wounded. Story about dog getting run over. We do things when we are hurting that we would not do when we are peaceful deep inside and content with our life--like the girls said: he must be hurting. The wounded places within us come from a low self-esteem, a lack of love for ourselves and who we are, a lack of faith in a higher power that has a plan and purpose. Ultimately, the wounds come from the story we tell our selves about who we are and we agree with the story, even though, deep in our hearts, we know it isn't true--and so we are at war with ourselves. The tale of two wolves: One evening, an elderly Cherokee brave told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said "my son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all. One is evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other is good. It is joy, peace love, hope serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." The grandson though about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "which wolf wins?..." The old man simply replied, "the one that you feed." http://www.nanticokeindians.org/tale_of_two_wolves.cfm So, the most important part of training yourself for the marathon of life is to first decide which wolf you want to win--in fact, which wolf you want to be--and then spend conscious, intentional effort feeding that wolf. You get to choose. If you want to be the good wolf, feed it good, loving, healthy thoughts--these are thoughts about you, who you are, what you are, your self-worth. Affirm your life! Build yourself up. Affirm other people. Build them up. Speak kind words or don't speak at all. I asked a friend how her husband was, she said "he is well." I said is that all?

LIAM 070 – 4 Steps to Help You Stop Worrying.

Are you a worrier? You're not alone! Most of us spend huge amounts of mental energy worrying about about what will probably never happen or over which we have no control. In this show, I give you 4 steps to help you stop worrying. Listen as I describe how I used these steps to change my own life: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: "I will not waste my days making up all kinds of ways to worry about all the things that will not happen to me" - Jason Mraz - Living In The Moment Worrying about something is projecting a negative outcome on something that hasn't happened. Worrying is a story that you are writing in your head and, though you might not believe it right now, you can write a different story. I was a worrier! I worried about everything. Truth is, I still battle this, but I have trained myself to catch myself doing it and can now correct rather quickly--you can too! Part of it was my low self-esteem, part was the many hardships I actually had suffered and assumed would continue, part was my pessimistic, negative outlook on myself and life. I worried about money, health, business deals, relationships, phone calls that didn't come when I expected them, visitors who didn't show up on time or never arrived at all, how someone interpreted what I had said, was my presentation strong enough to get the deal, was I attractive enough, would I remember the lyrics or chords, would they like me,... the list is very long "I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened." ― Mark Twain I learned how to control and even stop worry when I learned that everything is a script I am constantly writing, a movie I am constantly directing. I learned the E+R=O formula can be applied to the future, to events that haven't happened yet! I learned that setbacks are only ever devastating when you think they'll last forever--they never do unless you choose to let them. My daughter died in 2000. I didn't think I would ever get over that pain. I did. I've filed bankruptcy 2x. I didn't think I'd ever recover emotionally or financially. I did. One year ago, I had an advanced-stage cancer diagnosis--I got through it and am doing great! I know people who have lost everything in fires, floods--they rebuild. "Never place into your imagination any thought that you would not want to materialize." Dr. Wayne Dyer Thoughts become things, we get more of what we focus on. Step 1: Change the story, your thoughts about the future! I can see myself being, doing, experiencing the exact opposite of my worried thoughts I can operate in the present with the desired end in mind, and operate "as if" it was guaranteed to work out just like I want. See your life as you want it to be and start living AS IF Life Plan Athletes visualize the completed event. Sculptors see the image in the stone and just release it. Step 2: Practice living in the moment: Mindfulness - the act of controlling your mind to only think about this very moment. How are you right now? I mean right now! With no reference to the the past (even 2 minutes ago), and no desires for the future. How are you right now? In the hospital, I took a breath, held it and listened to my heart beating. I said "thank you" that my heart was beating and that I was able to breathe, and able to focus on the moment, instead of worrying about the future Step 3: Change your physical state: You can change your mental state by changing your physical state: Stand up and stretch--arms wide, fingers open, back straight, up on toes Hold a pencil in your mouth to force a smile Go for a walk and intentionally notice every detail of the ground, plants, animals, sky, air, smells Step 4: Your life has a purpose and a plan Whatever has happened, is happening now, and will happen is all part of the plan. Embrace it. Own it. Use it.

LIAM 069 – Read Books. Feed Your Head!

Many people ask me if I can make a book recommendation to help in their personal development. My answer is "Yes, read books. That will help in your personal development!" Sadly, most adults spend 15-20 hours per week watching TV when they could be reading an exciting novel or a book that will teach them more about life. Listen as I talk about the changes I made in my own life to become an intentional reader: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Question: can you recommend a book that teaches.... Answer: Yes, read a book! It almost doesn't matter what book you read. Reading will improve your life! Most adults stop reading after they finish their schooling Most adults in America watch 15-20 hours of TV per week! The food we eat has a direct impact on what our bodies become Same is true with our minds!  I gave up listening to and watching news programs many years ago Most TV, news, music - message is dark, defeating, negative, you'll never get ahead Most TV shows portray women as sex objects, men are idiots, and kids know everything and run the families. It's about how you choose to spend your time. When you say "Yes" to one thing, you are saying "No" to something else. I read between 3 - 5 books per month--most of which are audiobooks. It's a very rare thing to find a book, fiction or non-fiction, where the theme is negative, self-defeating. Most books are very motivational, uplifting, good defeats evil, teaches the value of self-esteem and working hard to achieve your dreams, etc. Biographies are a great place to start if you're looking for good books to read. Challenge: Turn your TV off for 30 days and read books instead. "You will be the same person in five years as you are today except for the people you meet and the books you read." - Charlie Tremendous Jones "The man who doesn't read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them" - Mark Twain I made reading books/listening to audiobooks a huge priority as part of my personal development Bruce's Reading List "Remember what the dormouse said: 'Feed your head, feed your head'" - Grace Slick Mentioned in this show: Bruce's Reading List Boston Marathon #Miles4Smiles Fundraiser Download: Affirmations for Abundant Living LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 068 – Alphabet Success with Tim Fargo

Tim Fargo, successful entrepreneur and author of Alphabet Success, is my guest today. His early ambition was simply to get a union job on a loading dock. He did much better than that! He paved his road to success with old-fashioned determination, hard work, and an unwillingness to let failure and setbacks define him. Listen to this great conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Quotes from Show: His goal was to get a union job on the loading docks. He did significantly better than that. You may be thinking about it, but the successful person is doing something about it. Maybe it's going to work or maybe it's not, but you'll never know unless you try. Don't hold yourself accountable for another person's behavior. "Do" is the key element to success. We used "jujitsu." We took the negative energy they threw at us and flipped it into a positive. Don't be so quick to label something as "bad." It may be the thing that takes you to success. It's never an easy thing to do but you have to end toxic relationships. If you are doing all the heavy lifting for someone else, you are training them into a bad behavior.

LIAM 067 – You Are Response-Able

You are "Response-Able"! You have the ability to choose any response to any event. Are you choosing responses that leave you as the victim, or are you choose responses that are useful, beneficial to you and your setting, and move you forward in a positive way? The choice is yours, whether you think so or not. Choose wisely! Listen as I walk you through some ways to choose differently: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: The great myth: we are entitled to a great life. Someone else, certainly not us, is responsible for delivering happiness to our doorstep in a pretty box. There is only one person responsible for the life you live: YOU! Assume 100% responsibility for everything in or not in your life! Your achievements, results, quality of relationships, health, income, feelings, EVERYTHING! If you think other people or the government are responsible for giving you these things, then you better learn how to be happy with the things they give you! It's so much easier to play the blame game, but that leaves you a victim. My boss, my spouse, the economy, the government Take 100% responsibility for everything--your successes AND your failures. Even if you aren't, it serves you better to assume you somehow caused the situation--if you had a part in creating it, you can do something to change it! If you want to live the life of your dreams, you have to assume 100% responsibility for creating it--otherwise you live the life of someone else's dream! Starting today and for the rest of your life, assume 100% responsibility for everything that does or doesn't happen to you E+R=0 Jack Canfield learned it from Dr. Robert Resnick The Success Principles It all comes down to how you respond to events in your life. Your response it what controls the outcome It is not limiting factors (money, race, gender, governments, health) that stop you because many people have succeed under the same or worse conditions. If it's not the limiting factors, it must be the way they responded to the factors! It's not the event, it's the story you tell yourself about the event, the images you hold in your mind about the event and yourself. You only have total control over 3 things: the thoughts you think, the images you visualize, and the actions you take How you use these 3 things determines everything you experience If you want to change the outcome, change the story, rewrite the movie/images, choose a victorious, or just more useful response Example of being stuck in an airport because of canceled flights. Why are some people completely freaked out, yelling at ticket/gate agents, etc. and some take a big breath, sit down and read a book? Why is it that you cannot stand to be around a certain person, yet others love to be around that same person? Why do 2 people show up for the same job every day, one hates it, the other is happy to have a job? Stop complaining about things you cannot control or to people who cannot fix it. You can't change the weather! You can move somewhere else, but you can change what it is right now Your boss/coworker cannot fix your marriage, your spouse cannot fix your boss You just create a reputation of being a complainer and someone who gets upset about everything! You are "Response-Able"! You have the ability to respond to any event in a way that is useful to you, leaves you in control of your emotions, and moves you forward in a positive way. Choose a "useful" response! If stuck in a traffic jam, is it useful to get angry, frustrated and yell at people who can't hear you anyway? If your health suddenly changes, is it useful to be angry, grumpy, and convinced you cannot still have a good life and have a positive impact on people? If a relationship ends, is it useful to stay at home everyday, thinking about the past, and not go out, make friends and new relationships? sometimes,

Assume 100% responsibility for everything in or not in your life! Your achievements, results, quality of relationships, health, income, feelings, EVERYTHING! If you think other people or the government are responsible for giving you these things, then you better learn how to be happy with the things they give you! It's so much easier to play the blame game, but that leaves you a victim. My boss, my spouse, the economy, the government Take 100% responsibility for everything--your successes AND your failures. Even if you aren't, it serves you better to assume you somehow caused the situation--if you had a part in creating it, you can do something to change it! If you want to live the life of your dreams, you have to assume 100% responsibility for creating it--otherwise you live the life of someone else's dream! Starting today and for the rest of your life, assume 100% responsibility for everything that does or doesn't happen to you E+R=0 Jack Canfield learned it from Dr. Robert Resnick The Success Principles It all comes down to how you respond to events in your life. Your response it what controls the outcome It is not limiting factors (money, race, gender, governments, health) that stop you because many people have succeed under the same or worse conditions. If it's not the limiting factors, it must be the way they responded to the factors! It's not the event, it's the story you tell yourself about the event, the images you hold in your mind about the event and yourself. You only have total control over 3 things: the thoughts you think, the images you visualize, and the actions you take How you use these 3 things determines everything you experience If you want to change the outcome, change the story, rewrite the movie/images, choose a victorious, or just more useful response Example of being stuck in an airport because of canceled flights. Why are some people completely freaked out, yelling at ticket/gate agents, etc. and some take a big breath, sit down and read a book? Why is it that you cannot stand to be around a certain person, yet others love to be around that same person? Why do 2 people show up for the same job every day, one hates it, the other is happy to have a job? Stop complaining about things you cannot control or to people who cannot fix it. You can't change the weather! You can move somewhere else, but you can change what it is right now Your boss/coworker cannot fix your marriage, your spouse cannot fix your boss You just create a reputation of being a complainer and someone who gets upset about everything! You are "Response-Able"! You have the ability to respond to any event in a way that is useful to you, leaves you in control of your emotions, and moves you forward in a positive way. Choose a "useful" response! If stuck in a traffic jam, is it useful to get angry, frustrated and yell at people who can't hear you anyway? If your health suddenly changes, is it useful to be angry, grumpy, and convinced you cannot still have a good life and have a positive impact on people? If a relationship ends, is it useful to stay at home everyday, thinking about the past, and not go out, make friends and new relationships? sometimes,

LIAM 065 – “I Am Not My Body!” with Steven Webb

Steven Webb and I met online when he wrote a review of my book. His review is titled: "I’m paralysed, why read a book about marathon running?" Steven broke his neck in a swimming accident when he was 19 and has been paralyzed since then. Steven reminds us that we are much more than our bodies and how we perceive ourselves is how others will perceive us. Listen to this moving conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Quotes from the Show: I’m paralysed, why read a book about marathon running? In the Summer of 1991, Steven dove into a swimming pool and never walked again. After 12 months in the hospital, I came home with a pretty different perspective on life. I had a zest for living and an appreciation for all the things I had. It's so easy to judge someone when they've hit rock-bottom and say "you've been through so much in life, what's wrong with you?" I realized that I was responsible for everything. How I react to what happens to me is what causes my life to go good or bad. I was able to focus my mind on what was important. On gratitude and appreciation as opposed to all the bad things. I discovered tolerance for other people. We're all on different levels. Everyone's got their own problems. We see everything the way we are, and if things aren't the way we are, we get frustrated. I didn't let my disability get me down. I focused on my ability. It never occurred to me people saw my wheelchair, because I didn't see it as part of me. My body is not who I am. If you see yourself as a victim, or in a negative way, that's the way other people will see you. After a few encounters, people stop seeing "Steven in a wheelchair" and start seeing Steven. The subconscious mind doesn't care if a habit is right or wrong. It just cares if you are used to doing it. People don't care what you say. They remember how you made them feel. The moving road: there are no straight roads; it wobbles; it moves; that's life.

LIAM 063 – Releasing Your Greatest Self with Dr. Steve Maraboli

Dr. Steve Maraboli joins me for a powerful repeat performance. Steve is a life-changing speaker, bestselling author, and Behavioral Science academic who has an amazing gift for bluntly telling it like it is, yet filling you with his love, compassion, and desire to see you release your greatest self. Listen to this moving conversation: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Quotes from the Show: I may not control the events that happen, but I do control the labels that I place on those events When you embrace the power you have, you can change the life you have. If you have the expectation that change is supposed to be easy, you will never change. You can't just want change. You have to live it; you have to breath it; it's something you have to DO! Actions give our thoughts integrity! It's not a matter of growing wise, it's a matter of shrinking wise. It's never about adding! There is no "key" to happiness. It's not locked up. If you're in prison, it's a prison of your own choosing. Releasing your greatest self is about making a decision to not stay in your self-inflicted prison. I've met so few people of have money. For most people, the money has them. What kind of story do you have? Do you a hero story or a victim story? Do you have an empowered story or a dis-empowered story? There is nothing preceding you other than a history that you cannot touch. Once you change the story a little bit, then the chemicals that speak to your body will also change. When you release yourself from the burden other people's opinions and actions, and you focus on the only thing you can control, which is yourself, you are doing yourself and the world a huge favor! You'll never have a shortage of people who are willing to fight to maintain the poison that is killing them. Nothing is as unpopular among friends as positive change. It takes courage to be the greatest version of yourself. It's not enough to step out of your comfort zone. You have to create a new comfort zone or your will go back to the old one. Life is hilarious. It offers endless reasons for us to laugh! Every single day is a once-in-a-lifetime event! Enjoy it! Make it count! I want to live in such a way that even my obituary is a best-seller! 99% of our stresses are about yesterday and tomorrow--two days you will never be able to control! If your Today looks like your Yesterday, that's a choice you've made.

LIAM 061 – The Prison of Perfectionism

I meet so many people who are living in prison. It's a prison of their own making. It's the prison of perfectionism. Listen as I talk about the prison, how we put ourselves in it, and how to set yourself free: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: In my coaching practice, there's something I encounter too frequently--people in the prison of perfectionism. Writers who won't write, musicians who won't record, artists who won't draw or paint--or, at least, won't show their work to other people. We believe our work must be perfect before we can show it to anyone. The blog post The business article The novel The painting The software project The simple journal or diary entry The dream of an amazing life It's not the fear of failure, it's the fear of criticism Maybe it was parents or teachers who told you it must be perfect. It's a lie. There's no such thing! If perfection exists, there wouldn't be software upgrades, new models of cars, 2nd editions of books I could have just recorded 1 podcast, instead of 61 and counting until I get it right! Imperfect work shared will change more lives than perfect work kept hidden! My software development taught me: create a minimally viable product, launch, then improve Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can. – Arthur Ashe Set yourself up for victory, not failure. Build momentum Get feedback Change course as needed Stop waiting for all of the conditions to be right, all the lights to be green, all thoughts to be organized You don't need more time, you don't need more money, you don't need more ideas Just start! Get feedback, make improvements along the way Ms. Frizzle (The Magic School Bus): Take chances, make mistakes, get messy! In my experience as a writer, speaker, musician--the work I thought was the most flawed is often the work that deeply touches someone's life. You have the ability to change the entire world--for one person! Enjoy the process. Have fun!! Put yourself on parole! Swing the gates wide! Set yourself free from the prison of perfectionism!

LIAM 060 – A Great Cloud of Witnesses

People ask me why I chose "Life Is A Marathon" as my life's motto. It's comes from my interpretation of the Bible verse "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses... let us run with endurance the race that is set before us!" (Hebrews 12:1) The problem is what we believe the "great cloud of witnesses" is saying, yelling, at us. Is it condemnation, criticism and ridicule? Or is it shouts of encouragement, love, and support? How you run your race will depend on how you interpret the cloud of witnesses.

LIAM 058 – Affirmations for Abundant Living

I am confident. I am secure in who I am. I am thrilled that you are using affirmations to support your personal growth! These are examples of how you can use affirmations for abundant living. Too often, our words and thoughts are negative and counter-productive. I'm here to help you change that. Listen as I talk to you about using the power of affirmations: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: We think between 50-70k thoughts per day. About 90-98% are the same. 70-80% are negative. What we focus on increases, so focus on the good things, the things you want more of! When speaking to children, instead of "don't drop this!" we should say "please carry this and gently set it down on the table. I'm proud of you!" If we spoke to our friends the way we speak to ourselves, we wouldn't have any friends. Cognitive dissonance is the mental stress or discomfort experienced by an individual who holds two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values at the same time, or is confronted by new information that conflicts with existing beliefs, ideas, or values. Leon Festinger's theory of cognitive dissonance focuses on how humans strive for internal consistency. When inconsistency (dissonance) is experienced, individuals tend to become psychologically uncomfortable and they are motivated to attempt to reduce this dissonance, as well as actively avoiding situations and information which are likely to increase it. Affirmation statements: Personal, present: "I am" not "I want" or "I will" Also good are "I have", "I know," "I love" Focused on what you want: "I am prosperous" "I am enjoying financial freedom" instead of "I am debt free" because the focus is still on the debt rather than the result of not having debt Use feelings: "I am excited about my life" "I am so happy and grateful for the inner-peace I feel" Actively, right now, feel the feeling you want to feel when the affirmation is completely true in your life Support your goals, dreams, what you want in your life Can be phrased as a question "what is it about me that makes people like to be around me?" "what am I doing to be so successful?"

LIAM 057 – Life Plan: Step 6 – Work the Plan. Make Your Dreams Come True!

Step 6 in creating your Life Plan is where all the magic happens, but it is the step most people skip: doing the actual work, working the plan to make your dreams come true! For a long list of reasons, many people will do all of the preparatory work, creating a life plan in great detail, yet they will not follow through and do the actual work required to make the plan work. Listen as I walk you through Step 6 of creating your Life Plan: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Life Plans are like gym memberships. Many people will join the gym, pay the deposit, pay the monthly dues, but never actually go to the gym to use the equipment to get in better shape. There are many reasons people do not follow through and take the actions necessary to create the life of their dreams. The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho, is a MUST READ book that deals with this very issue. It is a book about a boy who discovers his "personal legend" and sets off to achieve it. Along the way, he has doubts, hardships, victories, comes to a great place and almost stops there, etc. Quotes from The Alchemist: …everyone believes the world's greatest lie. It's this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That's the world's greatest lie. It's what you have always wanted to accomplish. Everyone, when they are young knows what their destiny is. At that point in their lives, everything is clear and everything is possible. They are not afraid to dream, and to yearn for everything they would like to see happen to them in their lives. But, as time passes, a mysterious force begins to convince them that it will be impossible for them to realize their destiny. When you want something, all the universe conspires to help you achieve it The problem is that most people want safety, comfort and to not be afraid, to just keep things as they are--and that's usually what they get... Your fear of regret must be greater than your fear of failure in order to achieve your dreams. ...before a dream is realized, the Soul of the World tests everything that was learned along the way. It does this not because it is evil, but so that we can, in addition to realizing our dreams, master the lessons we've learned as we've moved toward that dream. That's the point at which most people give up. It's the point at which, as we say in the language of the desert, one 'dies of thirst just when the palm trees have appeared on the horizon.' ...you're different from me, because you want to realize your dreams. I just want to dream... I'm afraid it will all be a disappointment, so I prefer to just dream about it. Do you want to realize your dreams, or do you simply want to dream about your dreams? Well, what if I decide to stay? …Let me tell you what will happen. You'll be the counselor of the oasis …You'll marry Fatima, and you'll both be happy for a year…. And you'll get better and better at understanding omens, because the desert is the best teacher there is…. Sometime during the second year, you'll remember about the treasure. The omens will begin insistently to speak of it, and you'll try to ignore them…During the third year, the omens will continue to speak of your treasure and your destiny. You'll walk around, night after night, at the oasis, and Fatima will be unhappy because she'll feel it was she who interrupted your quest. But you will love her, and she'll return your love… So you won't blame her. But many times you'll walk the sands of the desert, thinking that maybe you could have left… that you could have trusted more in your love for Fatima. Because what kept your at the oasis was your own fear that you might never come back. At that point, the omens will tell you that your treasure is buried forever…. Then, sometime during the fourth year, the omens will abandon you, because you've stopped listening to them.

LIAM 054 – Life Plan: Step 4 – Rate Your Wheel of Life

Step 4 in creating your Life Plan is to honestly evaluate where you are now in comparison to your ideal wish for each spoke in the Wheel of Life. Once you know where you are, you can take specific action to move one step closer to the life of your dreams! Listen as I walk you through Step 4 of your Life Plan: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: Review Step 3 to understand your ideal desire, your 10, for each area of life. The Wheel of Life has 7 spokes: Spiritual Physical Mental/Intellectual/Emotional Family Personal/Social/Friends Career Financial Based on your perfect wish for each spoke, rate your current condition on a scale from 1 to 10, with 1 being "just getting started," and 10 being you have reached your dreams for this area. Whatever number you pick for your current situation is the right number for you! Do not judge the number in any way. Just relax and know that this is where you are and that it's OK to be right where you are for each area of life. Thinking a low number is "bad" is not a useful thought. Using the Solutions Focus approach, as discussed in LIAM Session 23, ask yourself "why did I rate it so high?" If you rated a spoke a 5, ask yourself "Why so high? Why a 5? Why not a 4 or a 3?" Make a list of the reasons you rated each spoke as high as you did. Even if you picked a 1 for some area, why not a 0? This method shows you that you have already made progress, maybe significant progress toward your goal for each area of life. It gives you the feeling of accomplishment, which creates confidence to move even higher! Now, for each area, make a list of a few things that would need to happen to move just 1 point higher on the scale. Let's just take one step at a time, set ourselves up for victory, and create momentum!

LIAM 053 – Journey Well with Mary McManus

Mary McManus contracted paralytic polio in 1959 at the age of 5, suffered domestic violence and abuse to age 17. And that's just the beginning of Mary's story. Listen to us have an amazing conversation about the course of her life and her refusal to let circumstances define her. Life truly is a marathon, and Mary has journeyed well! Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: About Mary: Mary McManus grew up in Westchester, NY and contracted paralytic polio in 1959 at the age of 5, during one of the last polio epidemics in the United States. She was at the height of her 20 year award winning career as a social worker at the VA when she was diagnosed with post polio syndrome, a progressive neuromuscular disease. She did not take the diagnosis of post polio syndrome sitting down. She embarked on a healing odyssey that began with a leap of faith as she left her social work career to heal her life and to follow her new found passion as a poet and writer. The first poem she penned in February of 2007 was "Running the Race," a foreshadowing of her 2009 Boston Marathon run. Her pen became her divining rod for healing. Mary is a 2009 Boston Marathon finisher, blogger, the author of 5 books of inspirational poetry and her memoir, "Coming Home: A Memoir of Healing, Hope and Possibility.” In her latest book, “Journey Well,” Mary rewrites the story she tells in her memoir. The facts of her past are unchanged but the pain and terror are healed. She holds a BS in Public Relations from Boston University, an MSW from Boston College and many fond memories of her social work career at the VA in her heart. She is enjoying her retirement and delights in running, swimming, fund raising, writing and sharing her inspirational journey. Mary was gracious enough to continue our conversation after this portion of the podcast ended. We had a very special conversation about the writing of her new book, Journey Well, and how important it is to give yourself the gift of time when healing from a physical or emotional injury. This recording is available exclusively to members of  the LIAM Life Coaching Community. Please consider joining this life-changing group!

LIAM 052 – Life Plan: Step 3 – The Wheel of Life

Step 3 in creating your Life Plan is to understand that you are doing a complete LIFE plan, not just a career, personal, or family plan. Using Zig Ziglar's "Wheel of Life" model, we look at the 7 areas of life and define our purpose statement and our ideal target for each area.

LIAM 051 – Life Plan: Step 2 – Hear the Voices of Your Past

Step 2 in creating your Life Plan is to recognize that the best investments we can make during our lifetime is the investment in loving relationships. A person may accumulate vast amounts of money and material possessions, but if he reaches the end of his life without friends and loved ones around him, he dies a poor man. Listen as I walk you through another dream sequence that focuses on relationships and hearing the voices of your past: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: If you were on trial for the crime of being a kind and generous person, would there be enough evidence to convict you? People may not remember what you said or did, but they will always remember how you made them feel. Viktor Frankl used this method of looking at life with his fellow inmates who wanted to give up and commit suicide. I like this better than the approach used by Stephen Covey and Michael Gerber, where you imagine you are attending your own funeral. I don't want you to visualize being dead! Wayne Dyer says "never allow any thought into your imagination that you don't want to materialize" Imagine you are near the end of your life. You are still mentally sound, but your time to pass is near. You have gathered around you all of the people who have been close to you. Your spouse, children, grandchildren, other family, friends, neighbors, colleagues, pastors/priests/rabbis/religious leaders. This is an opportunity for the people you have gathered to talk to you. They are here to tell you about your life and the impact that you had on them. List the people: Spouse, children, brothers/sisters, friends, neighbors, colleagues/co-workers, religious leaders Dissociate from yourself and become that person. See yourself through that person's eyes and feel the feelings that person has about you. As that person, start talking to you about your life. How you affected them. The difference you made. The help/encouragement you gave. The contribution you made. The security/safety you provided. The laughs and tears shared. These are the voices of the people from your life telling you about the difference you made in their lives. Write this conversation down. Script it out for each person you listed. The feelings are so important. If you are feeling insignificant, unimportant, let's do this experiment. Go through this scenario in your mind--all the people telling you what an impact you made in their lives. Imagine what that will feel like when it happens. Can you feel it? How does it feel? Do you feel the joy, gratitude, love. Does it make you feel significant and important? Those feelings are real, just as real as they will be when it really happens to you. These feelings are available to you right now! You don't have to wait for this event to happen. You can live each day with this feeling and doing so will produce the real relationships you are just now imagining.

LIAM 050 – Life Plan: Step 1 – Start Dreaming Again!

Step 1 in creating your Life Plan is to start dreaming again. As adults, we still have the ability to dream; most of us, however, have simply stopped doing it! If you want to live the life of your dreams, you need to dream about your life! Listen as I walk you through the first of these Life Plan sessions: Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: "People never lose the ability to dream, they just quit doing it. If that's you, start dreaming again!" See this popular Tweet Everything that exists right now exists because somebody imagined it at some point. The dreaded "hows" are what keep people from dreaming. Our job is to dream, God's job is to make it happen. If you don't ask, the answer is always no If you don't dream, it will never come true Go in with the goal of being devastated if it doesn't work out (LIAM 37: I hope you dance!) Don't let people who never followed their dreams tell you not to follow yours! People never do anything without, for at least a split second, imagining themselves doing it. Put yourself in the future and think about the past. 5 years ago, you found a magic lamp and a genie granted you all of your wishes. Not just 3. All of your wishes! Write a letter to your best friend, who you haven't seen for the last 5 years. Tell him/her everything about your life right now--what you are doing, who you are doing it with, the success you've had over the last 5 years. What were the steps you took, the people you approached, the products/services you created. Every door you knocked on opened for you, every decision was the right decision, etc. Mentioned in this show: LIAM Team Life Coaching Community Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 049 – Personal Branding: Your Work is a Reflection of Who You Are

Are you a person who does your work, whatever it is, to the best of your ability? Your work is a reflection of who you are and it says more about how you think of yourself than it does the work you are performing. This is another Personal Branding episode in which I stress the importance of seeing yourself as the greatest product or service ever created and taking ownership of the idea that, regardless of who signs your paycheck, you are self-employed. Please listen and share with the social links below! Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: "Every job is a self-portrait of the person who did it ... Autograph your work with excellence." -- Vince Lombardi Are you doing your job halfheartedly? Just well enough to get by and satisfy your boss? It doesn't matter who signs your paycheck. You work for yourself. You represent the greatest product or service that was ever created. That brand is YOU! Your success is going to be based on how well you represent yourself to the world. Your work is a reflection of who you are, what's going on inside you, and how you value and respect yourself. Doing things with excellence is not so much about skill, craftsmanship, or outward appearance. It's about what's inside you that you are in love with. It's a reflection of who you are on the inside. It's what flows naturally from within you. If you don't like your job or your boss or a particular project and you do it just enough to get by or not as well as you are capable, that says more about you than it does the boss, job or project. It's about what's going on inside you. Have so much pride, respect, and love for yourself that it shows in and through the work that you do. Our kids do this in school. They may not like the subject or the teacher, so they just do enough to get by, somehow thinking they are pulling something over on the teacher. You may not like your boss, job, or the project you are working on, but why not do the work in a way that reflects the beauty and strength of character that is inside you? If you do substandard work, it reflects poorly on you and it reveals substandard thoughts and feelings you have about yourself and your position in life. The attitude with which you do your work should always be in sync with your life's purpose or core values. The 4th Agreement - Always Do Your Best!

LIAM 048 – Clarity: A Conversation with Jamie Smart

I included the book Clarity by Jamie Smart in my list of the most influential books I read in 2014. After you hear this conversation between the two of us, you'll understand, with remarkable clarity, why you must read this book, too! This episode, and his book, will change your life in significant ways. Please listen and share with your friends and family, so they may discover Clarity for themselves. Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Quotes and Thoughts from the show: Jamie dealt with the stress in his life, like so many people, by drinking He realized it was ruining his life, so he stopped After not drinking for several months, he discovered his true problem was a "thinking problem" After discovering Tim Ferriss' book The 4-Hour Work Week, he set off for great adventures thinking that's what was missing from his life. Shortly into his first mini-retirement adventure, he discovered that wasn't it either... Jamie: I was so sure, if I got the circumstances of my life right, then I would feel great, I would love my life After discovering the principles of Clarity, he knew this would be his life's mission Jamie: When we look through the things we thought were real or true, to find life doesn't really work that way, we discover that we have within us all we need to prosper, thrive and take the right steps in our lives. Jamie: If someone perceives themselves as limited, or not enough, or damaged, or broken in some way... the ability to believe that you are broken, or damaged, or not enough, is such an extraordinary creative act that it is proof positive that you are not broken, or damaged, or not enough! The slickest magic trick in the world is the ability we have as human beings is the ability to believe that we are anything less than extraordinary and magnificent! This limiting belief is part of our domestication. A 3-year-old spends most of its day in a place of clarity, peace, and joy. They blip out into furry, or sadness, or devastation, or giggling, or wonder and curiosity. So it's all in there. They just don't get stuck in it. They aren't wasting energy trying to manage state. It's a learning process/conditioning that gets us stuck and believing we are limited and not capable and not enough. Jamie: The game we are all up to in life, as I see it, is we are all looking for who we really are. We are looking for ourselves. We think we are looking for a partner, or achievement, or success, or to be number one, or to get approval or validation, when, all the time, what we are looking for is what we already are and something that we already have. We are looking for that place of peace and clarity that resides inside every human being. And we've been tricked into believing that we are going to find it out there, outside of ourselves. Most of us have a lot on our minds, we are over-thinking our lives and situations. We are stressing and striving. When you trying hardest to solve a problem, you are least likely to solve it. Most of the world's great discoveries, and our personal epiphanies, were discover when we were relaxed, had peace, and were not actively searching for it. Clarity of connection comes when we listen to each other without agenda, without listening for the purpose of giving and answer, and just listening to impacted and inspired by the other person. You mind is designed to give you insight. Your capacity for insight is a natural property of your mind. You can massively benefit from understanding the inside-out nature of life. Goal setting is neutral--not good or bad. A toxic goal is a goal set for the purpose of producing a feeling, by the achievement of the goal, that the goal is not capable of delivering. Money and material possessions have no "feeling transmitters." They have no power to give us feelings that can only be produced by something inside of us. A toxic goal is one that is set in the hopes of creating a feeling that you believe is not ...

LIAM 045 – What You Are Becoming is More Important than What You Are Doing!

What you are becoming is more important than what you are doing. Doing is usually just mechanical. Becoming is personal and spiritual. In this episode, I talk about making changes in our lives to move forward in our personal growth. Change is scary because it creates uncertainty, so I also address some very helpful ways to overcome the paralysis caused by fear. Please listen and share with your friends! Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: I want 2015 to be the best year of your life, so far! "How we spend our days is ultimately how we spend our lives." If you want your life to be different in 2015, you are going to have to think and act differently--and change can be a bit scary. If you don't make any changes in your life, you can't expect any changes in your life! I am making some big changes in my life in 2015 I'm dropping a few of the things I used to do for income. I'm adding some new, exciting things to my life, that I'm not quite sure how they will turn out. Fear stops people from trying new things, from making the changes needed to change their lives. Mindset: Be more excited about what could go right, than what could go wrong. Be more excited about what is coming into your life than worried about what will go out of it. I know you're scared, to it scared. I know you're uncertain, do it uncertain. Don't label the feeling as "fear" or "anxiety." Identify the physical symptoms--heart racing, hands shaking, stomach upset. Then ask yourself "can I do this with shaky hands, upset stomach, and heart pounding?" The answer is usually yes. Fear is wetting your pants and just standing there. Courage is taking the next step with wet pants! - @strategiccoach What stops us from taking steps forward is not the physical symptoms, it's the story we are telling ourselves in the present about some outcome we do not want to happen in the future. The problem is the future isn't real. Only the present is real. The past and future only exist as stories we tell ourselves about did or will happen. It takes just as much (and I think, less) energy to project a positive outcome to a situation than it does to think about a negative outcome. The answer is always "no" if you don't ask the question. Be more concerned about what you are BECOMING, than what you are DOING! The "doing" is more fulfilling if you do it with your focus on what you are "becoming" in the process. You are already are "good enough" as a person. You don't need to be "better" If you already know exactly how to reach your goal, it's not a big enough goal! If you know exactly what to do, I'd just call that a task, not a goal. Stop thinking about it and DO something TODAY, no matter how small, to move you closer to realizing your dream!

LIAM 045 – What You Are Becoming is More Important than What You Are Doing!

What you are becoming is more important than what you are doing. Doing is usually just mechanical. Becoming is personal and spiritual. In this episode, I talk about making changes in our lives to move forward in our personal growth. Change is scary because it creates uncertainty, so I also address some very helpful ways to overcome the paralysis caused by fear. Please listen and share with your friends! Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show Outline: I want 2015 to be the best year of your life, so far! "How we spend our days is ultimately how we spend our lives." If you want your life to be different in 2015, you are going to have to think and act differently--and change can be a bit scary. If you don't make any changes in your life, you can't expect any changes in your life! I am making some big changes in my life in 2015 I'm dropping a few of the things I used to do for income. I'm adding some new, exciting things to my life, that I'm not quite sure how they will turn out. Fear stops people from trying new things, from making the changes needed to change their lives. Mindset: Be more excited about what could go right, than what could go wrong. Be more excited about what is coming into your life than worried about what will go out of it. I know you're scared, to it scared. I know you're uncertain, do it uncertain. Don't label the feeling as "fear" or "anxiety." Identify the physical symptoms--heart racing, hands shaking, stomach upset. Then ask yourself "can I do this with shaky hands, upset stomach, and heart pounding?" The answer is usually yes.

LIAM 044 – Merry Christmas! Write a Letter to God

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I hope that you are able to rejoice and celebrate the holidays in whatever ways your tradition embraces. One of the things I do this time each year is write a letter to God. This is a letter that will never be sent to or read by anyone else. It is a cathartic process I go through to review the past year and express what I would like to experience in the year coming. Listen as I walk you through what I do and why I do it.

LIAM 043 – The “I’ll Be Happy When” Trap

If you have a goal and are saying to yourself "I'll be happy when I reach this goal," that is a formula for disappointment. The "I'll be happy when" trap snags so many people and leaves them unfulfilled. A true feeling of happiness, satisfaction, fulfillment, success, etc, can only come from within you. It can never be obtained by something from outside of yourself. Listen as I talk about how I fell into that trap, got out, and want you to avoid it, too. Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here:   Show outline: I'm currently reading the book Clarity: Clear Mind, Better Performance, Bigger Results by Jamie Smart! Amazing book! So much of it covers not just topics I've already talked about on this show, but also what I work on with so many people. All things happen for a reason and in perfect timing, so I smiled when I got to chapter 13 "Toxic Goals vs Authentic Desires" I had just finished talking with someone about his goals and how he kept using the phrase "I'll be happy when..." and he named some of his goals. In my show with Jaime Primak Sullivan (#41), we talked about reaching a goal and still feeling unsatisfied. The "I'll be happy when..." trap How secure can a person ever feel when they are believing that their security comes from something outside of them - Jamie Smart Looking forward to feeling successful, loved, appreciated, whatever, by the accomplishment of some goal or relationship is almost always disappointing. Upon reaching, thinking "So that wasn't it either..." and setting a bigger, but similar goal The circumstances of success will not create the experience of success It's good to want things and to have goals and things you want to achieve in your life but you cannot look to those things to validate you as a person or give you happiness. It's good to have goals, but don't let the goals have you! It's good to want things, but simply because you want them, and you'll be ok if you don't get them. I want a certain kind of car some day--it's a goal/desire I will enjoy owning and driving the car The desire for the car doesn't own me and I'm not hoping to feel successful or validated for having reached some social status by owning the car. I just want it. If I never get, that's OK I want to achieve my goals out of a desire to express who I already am and to achieve what I believe I am capable of achieve. I will enjoy the process of working to achieve them, more than I will the final result. Fortune Cookie: Happiness is not an outside job; it's an inside job. Happiness and security can only come from within, not from money, objects or other people It's about having an abundance mindset, rather than a scarcity mindset. Money is good and serves a purpose, but it is just a tool, like a hammer or a toaster Would you ever say "When I have 3 million hammers, I'll be happy" or "When I find the perfect toaster that makes the perfect piece of toast, I'll feel secure." ? Money cannot provide happiness or security, nor can the things money can buy We carry this idea over from childhood, when our blankets or teddy bears made us feel safe & secure Transitional objects: something that gives a child a sense of comfort and security during times of change or uncertainty. We know the blanket/bear can't give the child a feeling of comfort or security, that can only come from within the child--it just seems to the child that the feelings come from the object. Happiness, peace, comfort, security cannot come from the outside in, it must come from the inside out. We feel anxious and insecure when the stock market dips or we are having difficulty in a significant relationship It's because we are looking to these things to create stability and security in our lives These things are important, but can never give us that security. Markets and people are constantly changing When you place your security or,

LIAM 042 – Remove Yourself from the Darkness, Step Into the Light!

Remove yourself from the darkness and step into the light! This is sort of followup to something Jaime Primak Sullivan said in Session 41 about her personal journey. If darkness is winning the battle, it's because the light is not doing its job. Listen as I unfold this topic about being a light to our own lives and to the lives of those around us. Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here: Show outline: Something Jaime Primak Sullivan said in the last episode was very important! Jaime talked about how being mean and trying to make people feel bad (being a bully) made her feel bad and was exhausting. Being nice, trying to make people feel good made her feel great and gave her energy. It got me thinking about an article I wrote back in March 2014, just before I had my cancer surgery If darkness is winning the battles, my friend, it is because light is not doing its job. — Andy Andrews Darkness existed before there was light. Darkness is absence of visible light. Darkness is also a metaphor for wickedness or evil, or an emotional state of despair or negativity, or a lack of understanding. While the definition may vary, know this: darkness is the prevalent state and light must be used to dispel it. If you walk into a window-less room, like a basement, the room is completely dark If you flip the light switch and nothing happens, what do you get upset about? The darkness? No! You get upset because the light is not doing it's job! The same is true in our lives! Most of the darkness in our lives comes from negative thoughts and limiting beliefs We get stuck in what Zig Ziglar called "stinkin' thinkin'" We think negative thoughts about ourselves and others We must overcome the darkness by shining the light of positive thinking and gratitude Darkness hates light! If there is darkness in your personal life and relationships, you have 2 choices: Take responsibility for the darkness you are creating or perpetuating and begin to create light instead Your attitude and actions can be a great source of light Remove yourself from the darkness and step into the light Sometimes you must remove yourself from negative, toxic people You cannot change others, so sometimes you have to remove yourself from them. This is what Jaime said she had to do: remove herself from the source of pain and toxicity and embrace the light When she removed the external pain, she was able to work on the internal pain This was true in my life: My darkness was not from other people, it was from within myself I chose to change my thoughts about myself and others. Creating light takes much less energy than creating darkness In a dark room, it just takes a single match In a bright room, it takes putting up heavy coverings over the windows and turning off lights and filling in cracks As was true with Jaime, I found I had much more energy and excitement about life once I started creating light for myself instead of darkness, saying loving, kind, words to myself and other, instead of criticism and sarcasm. During the holidays, be a source of light instead of darkness. Wherever possible, remove yourself from dark relationships or shine as much light into them as you can--don't let their darkness dampen your light!

LIAM 041 – A Real “Tawk” with “The Jersey Belle” Jaime Primak Sullivan

Jaime Primak Sullivan, is the Creative Producer and Star of Bravo TV's show "Jersey Belle" and host of the Facebook and YouTube sensation, Keurig's "Cawfeetawk." She is one of the most influential forces in the entertainment industry today. Jaime spends almost an hour "tawking" with me about life and lessons learned along the way.  Jaime is beautiful, inside and out, and is among the most authentic persons I have ever known. Set aside some time to eavesdrop on our very personal, very real conversation. Listen on iTunes or Listen to/download this episode here:   Quotes from Jaime during the show: I've learned that not everybody will get your sense of humor, and that's OK! One of the things I've struggled with my whole life is I compete with everyone around me. I put more work into personal growth than I do into all of my other efforts combined. There's a difference between trying your best and always needing to be the best. I'm exhausted. I want balance. I want it, I crave it, and I just don't have it. I have a "breaking and entering" mentality. Before I knock on the door of opportunity, I already know how I'm getting in the back window, so it doesn't really matter to me what the person who opens the door says. What would happen if I woke up tomorrow and my only responsibility was to be Mom? There are days that I cry myself to sleep because I don't know how I can carry the load any longer. It's not a fear of failure. Maybe it's a fear of the well running dry. People may not remember what you say, but they will always remember the way you made them feel. I decided I wanted to leave people feeling better than before they came to me. Making people feel bad didn't make me feel any better. But making people feel good made me feel outstanding! Cawfeetawk is a takeaway. You take something away from it so you feel better about yourself. We allow our emotions to be controlled by outside influences that truly have nothing to do with us! You have to stop chasing what was, start living in what is, and accept responsibility! The changes I made in my life were because I was profoundly unhappy with who I was. Once you eliminate the outside pain, you start working on the inside pain. If you can't make someone's day better, just don't make it worse. There is nothing scarier than presenting your most authentic self to the world and knowing that there is no place to hide.

LIAM 039 – It’s Good to Have Dreams; It’s Better to Have Goals!

It's good to have dreams, hopes and wishes for your future, but it's better have goals. Many people think they have goals for their lives because they have an idea of what they want to accomplish, but they don't when they will achieve it or exactly what steps they need to take to carry it out. That is not a goal. That is just a wish. Listen as I walk you through the difference between wishes and goals. Listen to/download this episode here:   Show outline: Again, the topic for this episode is driven by events and conversations I've had recently. 2014 is coming to an end, so it's time for creating a plan for 2015 It's also the many people start thinking about New Year's resolutions The verb “Resolve” means: to decide firmly on a course of action. What do you want to be? What do you want your life to look like? What do you want that you don’t have now? I urge you to come up with wildly imaginative answers to these questions. Imagine your life extravagantly, because nobody can criticize you for your imagination! What are your goals? It's great to have dreams, but it's better to have goals. Dreams are vague, non-specific desires. Goals are specific and measurable. “I want to be a doctor” is a dream, a good dream. “I want to be a pediatric cardiologist by the time I’m 28 years old” is a goal, a very specific, measurable goal. Most people never realize their dreams because they don't convert them to goals. Think about, visualize, and write out your perfect life in each of these areas: Home: where would you live, what would your house look like, furniture, view, setting (woods, lake, beach, ocean), paintings, artwork, etc. Career: what would you like to be doing, who would you like to be doing it with, ideal colleagues, clients, product or service, how would it be benefiting your clients and the world, contribution to world Financial: how much money would you have, income, savings, assets, investments Family/Friends: what would your relationships look like? how many friends, what kind of friends, what would you like to do with them. Romantic Relationships/Spouse: character traits, romance, intimacy, caring, touching, giving, receiving Body/Physical Health: Ideal weight, skin tone, stamina, endurance, speed, abilities Emotional/Spiritual: free, open, cheerful, grounded, meditative, prayer, worship, etc. Community/Service: what kind of community would you live in, activities, neighbors, interactions with them, how would you serve, volunteer, etc. The World: what would the perfect world look like? would there be peace, war, ozone layer, global warming? How would people groups and nations be interacting? 1953 Graduating class of Yale, surveyed who had specific goals written down. Only 3%. 20 years later, those 3% had a higher net worth than the 97% who didn't have them written down. There is amazing power in knowing what you want and working to achieve it. All of your goals should be in line with your purpose, mission, and vision for your life Be very specific. You can change it as you go, but have very specific goals with deadlines. All goals should have these traits: Conceivable: you can think it up in your mind and it is conceptually possible Believable: you have to believe you can do it. (if you don't believe you can run a mile in under 3 minutes, don't make that a goal. You will never achieve what you what you don't truly believe is possible) Achievable: same idea as Believable. It must be something you can, realistically, achieve. Measurable: how much, by when. Must be measurable by someone other than you. Stated with no alternative: "I want to live on the ocean or a lake" is not a goal. "I want to live on the pacific ocean in Malibu" is. Something for you, not someone else: "I want my son go get better grades in school" is not a goal for you. Controllable: something that you can control.

LIAM 038 – Better Begins With You!

Better begins with you! Whatever the "better" is that you want in or for your life, it is up to you to create it. If you want to be better, you must think better, act better, and do better! Listen to/download this episode here: Show outline: I'm recording this while I'm out in Denver on a business trip and staying at a friend's house I was in Denver to meet with my business partner and key staff to do strategic planning for 2015 2014 was a good year, but we want 2015 to be even better We want more customers, which will result in more revenue, which will result in more money in our pockets In order to get more customers we are going to have to do things better Better products/services Better customer service Better attitude and outlook for our company and the future "If you want this year to be better than last year, then think better, act better, and do better. Better begins with you!" – Steve Keating (@LeadToday) I love this quote, but sadly this idea of personal responsibility is lost on many in our culture. You, and you alone, are 100% responsible for your attitude, outlook, reactions, responses, decisions, and the actions necessary to make your life what you want it to be! Not the government, not your employer; not your spouse, family or friends. Just YOU! Mahatma Gandhi — 'Be the change that you wish to see in the world.' You can't expect from others what you are not delivering yourself If you want love and peace in the world, what are you doing to create love and peace in your life, in your home, etc.? If you want kindness, love, and respect from someone else, what are you doing to be kind, loving and respectful? Assume 100% responsibility for everything about your life -- everything you are, everything that is in or not in your life! Even if something is the result of what someone else has done, still assume that you are at least partially responsible for it. Here's why: If it was totally out of your control to create it, it is totally out of your control to change it. If it was at least partially the result of your thoughts, words, or actions, then it is partially within your control to change it. The higher percentage ownership you assume for your situation, the higher percentage control you have to change it. Building a better life, business, career, relationship, etc, begins with you! Attitude is everything! Henry Ford - "If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right." If you want more money/prosperity, yet you believe the economy is going to collapse or there is no opportunity because a certain person is the head of the government, you have created a limiting believe that will prevent you for creating, or seeing opportunities for prosperity. If you believe that opportunity abounds in the world, you will create and see opportunities everywhere! As 2014 comes to a close, sit down and write out a year-end review, and map for what you want to achieve in 2015 Write out all of the things you did well in 2014 and would like to do/see more of Identify unproductive thoughts and habits and write down what thoughts and habits would be more productive Make a wish list for 2015--money, fun, relationships, etc. Then write out some of the small steps you need to take to move you in the direction of producing those things Mentioned in this show: LifeThought: Better Begins with YOU! - Bruce Van Horn EPISODE SPONSOR: eVoice - Claim your FREE 30-day trial Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 037 – I Hope You Dance!

I hope you take the emotional risks and dance this beautiful dance of life! We all get hurt, some more so than others, by others in life. Don't let that stop you. Get up, brush yourself off, love and value yourself enough to get back in the dance. You only hurt yourself and miss many beautiful opportunities in life when you decide to sit down and stay down instead of engaging and adding your contribution to life. Go into all situations so wholeheartedly that you will feel devastated if it doesn't work out. If it doesn't, take some time to catch your breath, then get up and go into the next situation with the same goal! Listen to/download this episode here: Show outline: The subject was emotional walls and not being willing to try again because of past painful experiences has come up several times in my conversations recently. In February 2014, I wrote an article for a friend who declared herself "done with men!" LifeThought: Go in with the goal of being devastated if it doesn’t work out. Go all in! Give 100% of yourself to everyone and everything you do. How high are the walls you've built around your heart? We build walls as a defense mechanism to prevent getting hurt We build them intentionally and quickly in response to pain We build them unintentionally, so slowly that we don't recognize them We start new relationships with enthusiasm and excitement and vulnerability When things don't go well, we feel pain, and we don't want to experience it again Walls are emotional barriers we put up to keep people from hurting us again When we get hurt, we sometimes declare ourselves "done" and we never attempt that thing again. Sometimes, we try again, but with the poison of the previous relationship still inside us We are suspicious and on the alert for any behavior that resembles the previous relationship We push people away the minute we become uncomfortable We move from love/vulnerability to bitterness, anger, resentment, cynicism, or skepticism. This sets the other person up to fall into one of your emotional traps, which isn't fair to that person Boundaries are healthy, but walls keep everyone out and keep you in prison. It will be hard for someone to fall in love with you if there are walls, snares, meant to keep them out. It is unfair to the other person if you are hiding part of who you are behind a wall. Love yourself so deeply and so unconditionally that you have a very high self-worth Having a high self-worth gives you the ability to engage in life and take chances A high emotional bank-account allows you to have disappointments that don't destroy you. If you've been hurt, take the time to heal, but resolve to get back in the dance as soon as possible Go in again with complete transparency. Give 100% to the effort. Go in with the goal of being devastated if it doesn't work out. If it doesn't, be devastated, but, as soon as you can, go back in with the very same goal. Never settle for less because you are afraid of being hurt! If you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I HOPE YOU DANCE!

LIAM 036 – Personal Branding: Practice Immediate Forgiveness

Practicing immediate forgiveness is an essential part of your personal branding! While that may not make sense, at first glance, you'll learn that it makes perfect sense. In order to be the best version of you you can possibly be requires that all of your energy be focused on growing and creating happy, positive experiences in your life. Holding on to negative thoughts and feelings drains large amounts of energy from you. In fact, unforgiveness poisons and weakens you, which directly impacts your personal growth, relationships, business opportunities--every aspect of your life! Learn how to forgive everyone for everything as soon as possible! Listen to/download this episode here: Show outline: Follow up on Forgiveness conversation with Leisa Peterson, LIAM 35 A tip Leisa shared with me after the interview: People often don't think "I need to forgive ____ because..." Yet people often think "_____ really pisses me off!" or "I get so angry/annoyed when ______" These are symptoms of unforgiveness and emotional poison I want to look at it from a Personal Branding angle Your brand is you, you are constantly helping or harming your brand with every interaction A brand is much more than a name, a logo, or a slogan Your brand is your story, your promise to the world about how customers will FEEL when interacting with you It's never about features, somewhat about benefit, but always about FEELINGS! It takes intentional, conscious effort to create positive brand awareness This requires all the emotional "horsepower", or energy, you can harness Holding on to anger, bitterness, resentment, jealousy--any negative thoughts--wastes HUGE amounts of mental energy! Leisa Peterson walked us through a beautiful, highly effective forgiveness meditation (LIAM 35) The key elements of the meditation were: Feeling grounded, in harmony/connection to the world and everyone A place of personal safety/security A sense of being deeply, truly loved -- the security of that feeling A sense of unconditional love for yourself -- the confidence of that feeling From that place of personal security and confidence, being willing to see people as just like you Wanting to be happy & peaceful Wanting to be free of suffering Recognizing that when people are in pain for whatever reason, they don't think or as they would in love and peace They feel disconnect from humanity They feel like a victim They take out their pain on others thinking it will ease their own pain They may even think that what they are doing is helpful to you in some way Recognizing that their words/actions are driven by their personal pain, we can feel compassion--an understanding of the source of their behavior For a place of unconditional self-love, we can have unconditional love for them--their true self, not the hurting self that has just done harmful things, but their inner-self. We can know that what they have done is not about us, but about what they are struggling with. When we realize it really isn't personal, it no longer hurts our feelings and we don't take it personally You can let it go, just like setting down an object you no longer want to carry By practicing this over and over, you will get better at it A deep personal love and feeling of security with who you are allows you to not take things personally and get your feelings hurt so easily. The goal is to get to a place where you can practice instant forgiveness! You may feel hurt or angry because of what someone does to you, but you can recognize the feeling and let it go right then. This will free you up from so much pain that lingers for days, weeks, years and sucks energy from you that you could be using for more productive/profitable thoughts You get there by constantly reminding yourself that your interpretation of whatwas said or done to you is a story you are telling your...

LIAM 035 – Forgiveness Creates Peace: A Conversation with Leisa Peterson

Forgiveness is essential to living a peaceful life. When you hold on to unforgiveness, not only is it a poison you are voluntarily drinking every time you link of it, it is holding you in a type of prison in which you are the only prisoner! Forgiveness is for you! It is not the same as condoning what was done. Leisa talks to us about her painful past and how she used meditation to find forgiveness and peace. She walks us through a guided meditation on forgiveness that you can download and listen to as a way of finding the peace of forgiveness in your own life. You can download the MP3 of the guided meditation here: ForgivenessMeditation.mp3 Listen to/download this episode here: Show outline: What started out as a 10-minute phone call turned into an amazing 1.5-hour conversation and I knew I had to share Leisa and her story with you! Our paths were destined to cross! Leisa turned inward to discover the true, authentic Leisa Her father was murdered and started her inward journey She tried to manufacture happiness by pursuing material, external, egoic experiences She struggled with guilt over her father's murder, thinking she could have prevented it Leisa studied the teachings of Buddha to make sense of this death and the chaos of her mind. Learned meditation to calm/control her mind Claimed responsibility for her thoughts/actions We live in a paradox of predestination and personal responsibility for creating our lives We all live in a story that we are writing Friends and family didn't understand the shift in her thinking/behavior, so she had to let go of many unhealthy relationships "Instead of blaming everyone else for what was going on, I started looking inside of me to see what was causing my thoughts/behaviors" "I had a victim mentality that was hurting me and my relationship with others." In December 2013, she was in a doctors office when a man came in with a gun and shot several people. He said to her "you may want to leave now." Then began his rampage. In the midst of his own rage, he showed compassion and mercy Leisa suffered from PTSD after this event She knew she had to learn and engage in a forgiveness practice for this man in order to move through it.

LIAM 035 – Forgiveness Creates Peace: A Conversation with Leisa Peterson

Forgiveness is essential to living a peaceful life. When you hold on to unforgiveness, not only is it a poison you are voluntarily drinking every time you link of it, it is holding you in a type of prison in which you are the only prisoner! Forgiveness is for you! It is not the same as condoning what was done. Leisa talks to us about her painful past and how she used meditation to find forgiveness and peace. She walks us through a guided meditation on forgiveness that you can download and listen to as a way of finding the peace of forgiveness in your own life. You can download the MP3 of the guided meditation here: ForgivenessMeditation.mp3 Listen to/download this episode here: Show outline: What started out as a 10-minute phone call turned into an amazing 1.5-hour conversation and I knew I had to share Leisa and her story with you! Our paths were destined to cross! Leisa turned inward to discover the true, authentic Leisa Her father was murdered and started her inward journey She tried to manufacture happiness by pursuing material, external, egoic experiences She struggled with guilt over her father's murder, thinking she could have prevented it Leisa studied the teachings of Buddha to make sense of this death and the chaos of her mind. Learned meditation to calm/control her mind Claimed responsibility for her thoughts/actions We live in a paradox of predestination and personal responsibility for creating our lives We all live in a story that we are writing Friends and family didn't understand the shift in her thinking/behavior, so she had to let go of many unhealthy relationships "Instead of blaming everyone else for what was going on, I started looking inside of me to see what was causing my thoughts/behaviors" "I had a victim mentality that was hurting me and my relationship with others." In December 2013, she was in a doctors office when a man came in with a gun and shot several people. He said to her "you may want to leave now." Then began his rampage. In the midst of his own rage, he showed compassion and mercy Leisa suffered from PTSD after this event She knew she had to learn and engage in a forgiveness practice for this man in order to move through it.

LIAM 034 – The Holidays Can Be Hard, Lonely Days

The holidays can be hard, lonely days for some people. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day with your family and friends. However, I realize that some of you are lonely, don't have family or friends, or are going through a hard time in your life. First, let me say I'm sorry for the pain you feel right now. Second, let me say I understand because I have been through very hard times and know what the holidays can be like in the midst of them. This podcast is for you. I talk about ways of gaining a new perspective on your situation with the goal of giving you hope for moving through the pain. Please listen... Show outline: A tweet from a follower: Some of us have lost everything, so it's hard to be thankful on thanksgiving Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentines day, birthdays, anniversaries, etc. can be lonely days. I've been there. I understand. Loss of jobs, relatives, relationships, health. It's OK to feel these feelings. There is no such thing as a "bad" feeling. Don't label it. Just feel it, give it freedom to move through and out of you. I can certainly empathize with the pain, especially around holidays My dear friend, Melinda--a wife and mother of six--died last year, 2 weeks before Christmas, which would have been her 53rd birthday. That Christmas was hard, but they were still in shock. This year will be the real test for them. April Fools Day - most have a fun time playing pranks on each other. That's the anniversary of my daughter's death. I've learned to have fun again. Learn to rejoice in other people's happiness. Just because you are not where you want to be emotionally, don't pull others down to your level. Don't expect everyone to know your level of pain. Lift yourself up by being happy for others. Conversation with coaching client: think about earlier painful experiences that you can't see how you will get through. If you can think of them, guess what? You got through them. Why would this be any different It's hard, when in the midst of the pain, to see a path to happiness in the future. That's why it's important to look back and be encouraged by our past--especially our past pain. If we look back on the past fun, happy times, that can leave us despondent. Looking at past pain reminds us that we survived. It was hard, but we got through it. It probably made us stronger or brought us new opportunities God/The universe is not out to get you! Be a reverse paranoid: the universe is conspiring for you, for your success. This is the perfect time to practice E+R=O Wayne Dyer's book I Can See Clearly Now - Listened to this audiobook while lying in the hospital bed. Perfect timing. Sometimes the painful things we think are harmful punishment, are actually blessings--the wings you sent to carry me home Mentioned in this show: Home - Rich Mullins I Can See Clearly Now - Dr. Wayne Dyer EPISODE SPONSOR: Udemy.com - Start learning today!

LIAM 033 – Thanksgiving Day Should Be Every Day!

Happy Thanksgiving! Feeling and expressing gratitude should not be reserved for a single day once a year. It should be an integral part of who you are, something that oozes out of your DNA without you being consciously aware of it. Being a thankful person will also make you more successful in every area of your life. If you are not a naturally thankful person, with practice, you can train yourself to be one. I know because I did it in my life. Listen as I say THANK YOU to all of you! Show outline: LIAM 19 - Happiness is directly linked to Thankfulness Article by the same name on Community Orange Thanksgiving Day should be Every Day! Thanksgiving should not be a holiday, it should be a lifestyle It is for me and my life is completely different because of it I am so thankful just to be alive this year! It's not that successful people are thankful, it is thankful people who are successful! I'm writing a book about Personal Branding and this is one of the most important chapters There are very practical, self-serving reasons you should feel and express thankfulness for everything First, it makes you a more pleasant person to be around Do you like be around consistently negative, grumpy, cynical, ungrateful people? NO If that's you, you are harming yourself because you are repelling from you people and opportunities for success I believe in the Law of Attraction -- we attract into our lives what we are, feel, and expect from life Your reticular activating system (RAS) The filter through which your conscious mind experiences reality It allows into consciousness the data you need, want, expect New car, a particular song, new jewelry or dress, a pet, etc. World-views, politics--we hear and see what we are expecting to see Bad/Good service in restaurants Good/Bad in other people Practicing gratitude opens up your RAS to more things to be grateful for The good things have always been there, you just didn't pay attention to them There are good traits in people you dislike, you just don't see them because you don't want to Gratitude opens up your eyes and you see life through a different filter By exercising your "gratitude muscle" you become stronger, more capable of weathering hard circumstance/people My cancer is a great example - it didn't knock me completely out of the game By looking for things to be grateful for, you will see good things and opportunities that were there all along, but you passed them by. You will become more successful because you will be open to success coming into your life. Gratitude journal Every day, write down everything you are grateful for It will become habit and you will discover a new way of living. Be grateful if for no other reason than you are Filled with Greatness! Your body, brain, personality, things you can do, think, say, feel, are all great cause for gratitude! Dealing with family over Holidays: Have boundaries, but not walls! Don't take anything personally Don't make assumptions Practice forgiveness Mentioned in this show: Happiness Is Directly Linked to Thankfulness - Community Orange Magazine Boundaries - Dr. Henry Cloud EPISODE SPONSOR: Udemy.com - Start learning today!

LIAM 032 – A Morning Routine Could Be the Miracle You Need!

Creating a morning routine as a habit of personal growth and develop could be the miracle you need. I know that developing and practicing my morning routine every morning over the past few years has completely changed my life and I attribute much of my success to this habit. But don't take my word for it, best-selling author, coach, and speaker, Hal Elrod, wrote about how his morning routine changed his life in his life-changing book: The Miracle Morning. Show outline: Do you have goals and dreams about living a better life, having better relationships? Good! What are you doing to develop yourself into the kind of person who can create/attract those things? Quick prayer/meditation: Give me the ears to hear, the eyes to see, and a mind that is open to the information and opportunities I'll encounter today that will help me get closer to becoming the person I want to be. Susan Stynes, my book-buddy, asked if I had read The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod I had not, but I downloaded it and listened immediately I laughed and smiled throughout the book because this kid stole all of my material!!! While our routines are somewhat different, the concept is the same and I, also, attribute my morning routine to being one of the biggest influences to the changes I've made in my life over the past several years. The way you start your day frames the way the rest of your day will go. If you just get up and get rolling without plan other than same old routine, that's how your day, your life will go It's all about setting intentions and living intentionally My morning routine: Alarm at 5:15 if not already awake Stand, stretch, say "Thank you, God, for Everything! Absolutely everything! I have no complaints whatsoever!" Feed my cats, pour my cup of coffee to let it cool Drink a glass of water Box Breathing - sitting on the floor in my den, 2-3 minutes to just quiet the mind Concentrate on my belly - imagine inhaling/exhaling is all through bellybutton Breathe in through nose for 5 seconds Hold 5 seconds Breathe out through mouth for 5 seconds Hold 5 seconds Repeat 5 times Exercise Do stretches for a few minutes Do push ups, sit ups, squats, bicycle crunches Sit in front of computer with my vision-board photos on the screen saver Read through my affirmation statements and life-goals Focus on the feelings of each affirmation The feelings of having achieved the goals Gratitude/Joy for the reality of each affirmation/goal Journal Morning Journal First thoughts, feelings, desires of the day. Send love to someone - I don't write this, just think, feel, visualize, send A future someone - my boys future wives, etc Gratitude - at least 5 things Evening Journal Recap the day with new thoughts, feelings events Add to the gratitude list Record victories/successes/LOA confirmations Things I'm looking forward to tomorrow What I want to dream about tonight Read 3-5 pages of spiritual book. Review what's on my schedule and what I want to accomplish for the day Make breakfast for boys and get them off to school Go running on alternate days I just don't have time to do this in the morning We all have 24hrs. It's about priorities and what's important Seth Godin - I don't have time really means it wasn't important enough If there was a medicine you had to take to save your life, but you had to get up 30 minutes earlier than usual to take it, would you? I'm not a morning person The kind of person you are is about the story you tell yourself If you say "I'm going to be so tired tomorrow if I get up early" you will be! Doesn't have to be in the morning as long as you do it and develop the habit of framing your do so it goes the way you want it. "How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives." - Annie Dillard (LIAM 30)

LIAM 031 – A Gift is Often is NOT a Gift!

A gift is not a gift if you expect ANYTHING in return! Have you ever given a gift and gotten your feelings hurt because you didn't get a "thank you" in return? If so, it wasn't a gift. Gifting should, ultimately, be a selfish thing. You should give only with the goal of pleasing yourself having given something with no expectation of repayment of any kind--not even gratitude! Show outline: Have you ever given a gift and gotten your feelings hurt because you didn't get a "thank you" in return? You expected repayment in the form of gratitude! Have you ever been upset because you gave a gift to someone, only to find out later they gave it to someone else? It wasn't a gift because you placed conditions upon its use! The definition of "Gift" is: something, tangible or intangible, given to someone without the expectation of payment. Expecting a simple "Thank you," or expecting the person to keep it or use it in a certain way is expecting a form of payment, which makes it a purchase, not a gift! Yes, it is common courtesy to say "Thank you" when someone gives us something. However, you can’t control what other people do or say; all you can control is you. True gift giving is ultimately a selfish act. You should give because it pleases you to give. You should give because it makes you happy to give.

LIAM 030 – Find Joy in the Journey: Be Happy in Becoming!

Finding joy in the journey of life is about being happy in the becoming! We only run a marathon one step at a time. We only live life one moment at a time. As Annie Dillard said: "how we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives." Doing your best is about what you are DOING at the moment to get the result you want. If you are only living for the end-result and missing the satisfaction and joy of doing the things to create the result, you will have missed the point of living along the way, and you will not enjoy the result as much as you will if you enjoy the process of creating the result. Show outline: Today's Facebook Post: Today is going to be a beautiful, happy, productive day. I am going to create and embrace peace. I will smile and laugh, and help others do the same. I will recognize and create opportunities for growth in the direction of my goals! I will think, believe, and take action today! Follow up on marathon = Do Your Best Doing your best is about what you are DOING right NOW. Not what you want the end-result to look like. The result you want is important because it shapes what you do now, but it is the NOW that matters most. If all you can think about is the result, the reward, that's what you live for and you miss the present moment We want so many things and so much stuff: The car, house, spouse, kids, vacations, bank accounts The degrees, the promotions the careers When we get what we want after working so hard to get them, we are often disappointed We miss the joy of the doing of the things that got us there Success is not a destination, it is a process, it is the journey of becoming How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. — Annie Dillard Life is made up of a series of days, made up of a series of nows You can't have an awesome life if you don't have a lot of really awesome days A life well-lived is made up of days well-lived A job well-done is made up tasks well-done "Always Do Your Best" is about the present moment and enjoying doing your best at whatever you are doing now Finding the "joy in the journey" is about taking pleasure in the process of becoming Hard doesn't mean you can't enjoy it Making mistakes doesn't mean you didn't do your best, and you can still take pleasure in the mistake by knowing you can do it better or different the next time It is not the years that get wasted, it is the minutes and hours.

The result you want is important because it shapes what you do now, but it is the NOW that matters most. If all you can think about is the result, the reward, that's what you live for and you miss the present moment We want so many things and so much stuff: The car, house, spouse, kids, vacations, bank accounts The degrees, the promotions the careers When we get what we want after working so hard to get them, we are often disappointed We miss the joy of the doing of the things that got us there Success is not a destination, it is a process, it is the journey of becoming How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. — Annie Dillard Life is made up of a series of days, made up of a series of nows You can't have an awesome life if you don't have a lot of really awesome days A life well-lived is made up of days well-lived A job well-done is made up tasks well-done "Always Do Your Best" is about the present moment and enjoying doing your best at whatever you are doing now Finding the "joy in the journey" is about taking pleasure in the process of becoming Hard doesn't mean you can't enjoy it Making mistakes doesn't mean you didn't do your best, and you can still take pleasure in the mistake by knowing you can do it better or different the next time It is not the years that get wasted, it is the minutes and hours.

LIAM 029 – A Perspective on Victory! Richmond Marathon 2014

A Perspective on Victory! I ran the Richmond Marathon on November 15, 2014. It did not go exactly as I planned, but I made some significant, mid-course mindset adjustments, shifted from victim to victor, and turned failure into victory! Listen as I talk you through the marathon, both literally and metaphorically. Show outline: THANK YOU! I got so many Tweets, Facebook messages, and emails wishing me luck and warmth for the marathon! Even though I've run many marathons, this was, in many ways my first marathon Foot surgery 8/13 Cancer surgery 4/14 No running at all for 10 months - ground zero! Marathon breakdown Got plenty of sleep the night before, ate well, hydrated, did all the prep just as planned Got up at 5:00am, had breakfast and coffee, got dressed just as planned Picked up neighbor at 6:15, drove downtown, found parking spot, sat in the car to stay warm It was 22 degrees! Got to starting line, sun was up and had warmed to 26! First 13 miles were great, just ahead of target pace Family met me, swapped water bottles with my son, rolled on Mile 15, turned left to cross the James River heading north brutal, cold headwind 2.5 mile uphill climb Right hip--specifically the top of the sartorius muscle--became very sore while fighting the cold wind and the grade By the time I hit 18 it was screaming at me, which effected my stride/gate, forcing me onto my left leg I could feel my left knee, which I injured many years ago become weak. I was walking/jogging by 20 and knew I would not reach my goal 20-22 is where most people hit "the wall" anyway, it's not uncommon to find people walking here The wall is where the mind and body want to quit The mind plays games, you can get disoriented, or deeply discouraged Many people bail out at this point Could I have pushed through to keep my pace? Maybe Ryan Hall - London Olympics DNF Is the goal worth serious injury/long recovery if recovery is possible? I decided it wasn't worth it. I'm not a professional, I just do this for fun I had to do mid-course attitude/expectation adjustment For a mile or two, I was very discouraged I allowed myself to feel those feelings instead of telling myself I shouldn't feel them When it passed, I reminded myself of all I have come through in last 15 months At mile 23.5 I had tears rolling down my cheeks Not tears of frustration or pain -- although I was in pain! Tears of joy and gratitude! 15 months ago, I couldn't walk 7 months ago, I couldn't get out of bed without help because of the blood loss and abdominal pain Right now, I am walking the last 3 miles of a marathon I very carefully shuffled my way down the steep hill to the finish line My goal had been 4:00 My actual time was 4:27 I missed my goal by 27 minutes You tell me, is that a failure or a victory? I call it a HUGE VICTORY!!! The bonus was my neighbor! He ran his 1st marathon ever 3-weeks ago in 5:02 He knocked 30 minutes off of his time, passed me at the end and beat me by 45 seconds! I was SO happy for him! It's all about perspective, and adjusting your expectations when life doesn't go the way you want it to After all, life is a marathon! All you can do on any given day is your best! The 4th agreement: Always do your best! Your best will be different on different days, under different circumstances If you did your best, give yourself a break, celebrate you did your best! If you didn't do what you wanted, but still did your best, try again tomorrow If you didn't do your best, that's OK, try tomorrow to do your best Doing your best is about the action, not about the outcome/goal If you do your best, you find intense satisfaction in the doing, regardless of the outcome Mentioned in this show: You CAN Go the Distance!

LIAM 028 – Do Not Make Assumptions!

Do not make Assumptions! An assumption is when we don't know the answer to something, so we formulate an answer in our mind. Making assumptions and taking things personally account for the overwhelming majority of suffering and drama we experience in our lives. In this episode, I continue the teachings from the book, The Four Agreements, by Don Miguel Ruiz, with the 3rd Agreement: Don't make assumptions! Show outline: The Four Agreements - Don Miguel Ruiz Be impeccable with your word Don't take anything personally Don't make assumptions Always do your best Not All of Your Thoughts Are True It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so. — Mark Twain So often we construct elaborate stories in our minds, complete with elaborate emotions, around a "truth" that we constructed or was told us that we accepted as "truth" that simply isn't true We made an assumption and called it "truth" The 3rd Agreement - Don't Make Assumptions This one issue, combined with taking things personally, create well over 90% of our problems - both personally and socially An assumption is when we don't know the answer to something, so we formulate an answer in our mind That formulation is based on all of the beliefs, mindsets, interactions, education we have experienced from our birth up that this moment in time. Because we have become so comfortable with who we are and what we think, we believe that our assumption is the truth. We make assumptions about everything--why people do or say what they do, what they are thinking Assume our assumption is truth and we take it personally We react based on our assumption and that can cause us to send emotional poison to them, which they may take personally, which creates a never ending cycle. We create a whole big drama for nothing The overwhelming majority of your sadness and drama you have experienced in your life was rooted in making assumptions and taking things personally Stop a minute to consider this statement We create and spread so much emotional poison because we usually start gossiping about our assumptions We make assumptions We believe we are right about our assumptions We defend our assumptions We try to make someone else wrong because we believe our assumption is right Assumptions set us up for suffering and creates so much chaos and causes us to misinterpret things We only see what we want to see and hear what we want to hear We don't perceive things the way they are We have a habit of dreaming with no basis in reality When we learn our dream was not real, our bubble is burst and we suffer Think about some assumptions that are easy to make You see someone you think is attractive, you smile; he/she smiles back You assume that person finds you attractive You start to fantasize a relationship A whole dream of a relationship and a life together can be created simply because someone smiled at you Social media is a very dangerous place for this Someone you don't know responds playfully or just nicely to a tweet You assume that person wants a real relationship A dream begins to form that has no basis in reality Assumptions in relationships create so much tension We assume our partner knows what we want without us saying it We assume just because our partner like something one time, they want more of it When our partner doesn't do what we want or responds differently that we assumed, we take it personally and get our feelings hurt Many people get married based on assumptions After the honeymoon is over and we learn our assumption was wrong, we are crushed We want so much to believe the truth of our assumption that we are afraid to come right out and ask our partner Our fear keeps us trapped from ever knowing the truth so we make new assumptions, which create new traps

LIAM 027 – Do Not Take Anything Personally

Do not take ANYTHING personally! The core of taking things personally is actually selfishness, self-centeredness, thinking it is all about me. Whatever anyone else does, thinks, or says to you has nothing to do with you--it is all about them!  The best teaching on this subject comes from the book, The Four Agreements, by Don Miguel Ruiz, and I use that as the outline for this episode. Show outline: The Four Agreements - Don Miguel Ruiz Be impeccable with your word Don't take anything personally Don't make assumptions Always do your best The 2nd Agreement - Don't take anything personally Whatever happens around you or to you, don't take it personally If someone insults you, don't take it personally It is about them, their domestication, their beliefs, their agreements If you take it personally, you agree with it and take the poison as your own and trap yourself in a new agreement What causes you to be trapped is called "Personal Importance" or taking things personally It is the maximum expression of selfishness It is the assumption that everything is about "me" During our "Domestication," education and upbringing we are taught to take everything personally We are taught we have the power to hurt other people's feelings We are taught to believe what others say to and about us Nothing other people do is because of you! It is because of themselves. Everyone lives in their own mind, their own world, their own beliefs/agreements When someone directly insults you, it is not about you, it is about them The things they do, say, and the opinions they have in their minds are according to the agreements they have with themselves and the world Their point of view comes from their programming, their domestication When someone says or does something to you, they are dealing with their own feelings and beliefs -- Don't take it personally. That person, whether intentionally or unintentionally, sent poison to you. If you take it personally, you agree to take the poison as yours, which will probably cause you to spread it to someone else. Their personal garbage becomes your personal garbage It weakens your immune system which makes it easier for you to take other people's poison--it creates a vicious circle of self-destruction If you do not take it personally, you strengthen your immunity to poison Immunity to poison is freedom and the gift of this agreement Everything you feel, do and say is a reflection of your own personal agreements What you say, do, think or feel, and the opinions you have are according the agreements you have made and these opinions have nothing to do with me It is the way you see the world. It is nothing personal to me, because you are dealing with yourself, not with me You create a movie or novel in your mind. You are the writer and producer. You are the main character. Everyone else is secondary. It is your story. The way you see your story is through the agreements you have made with life Your point of view is no-one's truth but yours. When you live without fear, with love for yourself, you are happy and everything in your story reflects that happiness. You reject poison from others and you have no poison within you to spread to others. Do not take ANYTHING personally If people tell you how wonderful you are, do not take it personally It is not about you, it is about them and how they perceive you If you take it personally, you can become addicted to their praise If they stop praising you, you get upset and think they don't love you anymore You know you are wonderful. You don't need others to tell you so. Even if someone commits a violent or hateful act against you, don't take it personally It was not about you. It was about them This is a major key to forgiveness and letting to of the past It was not about you. It was about them.

LIAM 025 – Pace 2 Finish! A Conversation with Katie Mehnert

In this episode, I have a conversation with Katie Mehnert about how life has truly been a marathon for her. She is a fellow marathon runner and cancer survivor and has fought many other battles to arrive at this point of her life. You will be inspired by Katie's message of determination to succeed. Quotes from the show: I've always used running to set my mind in motion. It puts me in a good place to be able to think and make clear decisions. When you look at the bigger picture, and think about the longer term, and you try to put the immediate pain of what's in front of you out of the way, you can really create what your future is going to look like. At some point I got my head out of the pity party and I said "you need to own this and you need to do something about it!" Running and therapy saved me!

LIAM 024 – Procrastinate On Purpose. A Conversation with Rory Vaden

LIAM 023 – Focus on What You Want: The Solutions Focus!

In this episode, I talk about how we tend to get more of what we focus on. Therefore, we should focus on solutions, not problems; on what is working, not on what is not. I introduce you to The Solutions Focus by Paul Jackson & Mark McKergow. Show Outline: The Law of Expansion - what you focus on expands/increases Most focus on the problems, what is wrong, what they hate, what they don't want to happen Debt Relationship problems Politics "Don't drop this!" Most counseling focuses on the problems and the past There can be benefit to this, but should not be the emphasis Most bosses and leaders focus on what employees are doing wrong They tend to get more of the same Focus on what you want, what you love, what you want more of! Promote what you love instead of bashing what you hate Vote FOR something, rather than AGAINST something What you want must be stated in the positive The man I want doesn't drink excessively, doesn't put me down or call me names, doesn't watch football all the time, and isn't a slob... The best coaches never point out what someone did wrong, just what they can do differently to get a better result We should be coaching, not criticizing Leaders/Manager will do better to tell employees how to improve, focusing on the desired results Parents will get more results by telling kids what they did right, rather than what they did wrong Over emphasize good grades, good behavior Focus on successes rather than failures We learn more from success than we do from failure LIAM 008 - Set Yourself Up for Victory; Learn from Your Successes! LifeThought: Success comes in Can, not in Cannots Focus on Your Strengths, Not Your Weaknesses My experience is that focusing more on solutions, than problems, what's right instead of what's wrong, the problems tend to fix themselves or disappear. The Solutions Focus - Paul Jackson & Mark McKergow I use the process from this book with every one of my clients, on my kids and on myself! Don't waste time on looking for/analyzing the cause of the problem, Go straight to the solution! "The focus on solutions (not problems), the future (not the past) and on what’s going well (rather than what’s gone wrong) leads to a positive and pragmatic way of making progress." "Focusing on solutions rejects conventional approaches that share the widespread assumption that focusing on problems is the best way to solve them." "Identify what works and do more of it / Stop doing what doesn't work and do something different" "I really appreciate when you do..." "Thank you for doing...." "Hey, the way you handled that_______ was really impressive." "The way you handled that situation didn't get the results you wanted. How about doing ____ instead next time?" A Solutions Focus Technique for most situations: Think of a situation that you’ve been complaining about. Rate how you feel about it on a scale of 1 to 10 There is no "wrong" number. Whatever it is is right for you or the other person Instead of asking "why so low?" Ask "why so high?" Why is it a 5 and not a 4 or 3? This question forces you to focus on what is working instead of what is wrong List all the things that are working that make it as high as it is, instead of lower What are some things that could be done/improved to move it 1 point higher What signs/evidence would be the recognizable to let you know it had moved 1 point higher Use the magic sleep method Set yourself up for victory by just trying to move 1 point higher What small steps/actions can you take today to make those things happen?

LIAM 022 – Are You Living Intentionally?

In this episode, I talk about the importance of living intentionally, and exactly what that means. An intention is an aim, a plan, a desired outcome. You should have intentions for every area of your life and take the actions necessary to fulfill that intention. If you are not living intentionally, you are just wondering aimlessly in the world, subject to the intentions of others. Aim your life in the direction you want to go, then go there! Show Outline: My social media profiles say "Living intentionally." I spent most of my life just living from moment to moment, day-to-day, without any real plan I had lofty, long-range, vague desires for how I hoped my life would turn out, but no plan to get there I was just settling for the life I received, rather than creating the life I wanted Getting in shape was my first "intention" Intention - an aim or a plan; deciding in advance what you want to do, how you want to do, what the desired outcome is. "You did that intentionally!" kids will yell at each other means that one kid did something to the other kid on purpose, with a plan or intention Intention is the framework for your life Each day should start with intention Each meeting should have an intention While some interactions with people are spontaneous, you should still have an intention for feelings, etc Your life should be guided by intention Intention alone is useless, it must be acted upon! 3 seagulls sitting on a dock Wife is mad at husband. Doesn't she know he intended to buy her flowers and take her to dinner? What is the BIG intention, aim or plan for your life? You should have goals for your life and work toward them with the "intention" achieving them It determines how you show up in the world The energy you bring to each day, each situation It keeps you grounded and guides you through unforeseen events It is your "agreement with reality" It guides your "R" in the E+R=O formula In response to circumstances, are you the victim, or the victor? It allows you to be in control of your value/self-worth It's so easy to confuse your circumstance with your value Intention puts you in control of your life It allows you to respond, rather than react responsible = response / able It allows you to see your life, circumstances, and other people from a new perspective You get to choose how to respond in alignment with your intention You get to evaluate all of your thoughts, feelings, and actions with your goals/life purpose Is this response useful? Does this move me closer to or farther away from my goal Is my intention in alignment with my purpose and core values Live intentionally! Have an aim, a plan and act on it If you don't like it, you can change it Stop settling for the life you get. Intentionally create the life you want. If you're not living your life intentionally, according to your plan, you wind up living your life according to other people's plans--so have a plan and live intentionally, with MASSIVE amounts of action to make your plan work!

LIAM 021 – A Conversation About Perspective with Steve Maraboli

In this episode, I have an amazingly honest, energetic conversation with Dr. Steve Maraboli. Steve talks with me about his personal journey to discover his calling. He has dedicated his life to helping people break out of victim thinking and to craft an "agreement with reality" that moves you forward to a positive future. There is so much actionable wisdom in this episode! Do not miss it. Quotes from the show: Your agreement with reality defines your life. It's so easy to confuse your circumstance with your value. You are your value, not your circumstance! There is neither sunrise or sunset. It's all perspective. Because what I am calling the "sunset," at the same exact time, for the very same sun, someone else on the other side of the world is calling "sunrise." And we are both right. And we are both wrong. Because it is perspective that makes the difference. The question isn't "where are you?" The question is "how are you viewing where you are?" The question is "what is the message in the mess?" When you embrace reality and take accountability and strength in what you do control, instead of craving control over things you simply don't, you can empower yourself and move your life in the right direction. You are leaving an impact on this world no matter what. It's up to you to decide whether it's a positive or negative one. Let go of yesterday because it already let go of you. It's gone! For there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so. - William Shakespeare (Hamlet) Say to yourself: "I am better than the life I have settled for!"

LIAM 020 – Do You Believe in Miracles? You Should!

In this episode, I talk about the importance of looking back through your life to examine all of the miracles that have happened in your life. By looking at what you have come through, you will find strength and encouragement to face current and future obstacles. Do you believe in miracles? You should because you are one! Listen as I unpack this important mindset. Quotes from the show: There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. — Albert Einstein If your life were a book and you were the author, how would you want your story to go? — Amy Purdy Don’t let the miracles that haven’t happened yet blind you to the ones that already have! — Bruce Van Horn Show Outline: Are you in a rough place right now where you think only a miracle can save you? Dr. James Dobson shared one my articles with his audience Don’t let the miracles that haven’t happened yet blind you to the ones that already have! Are you letting your emotions rule your choices? It is so easy to let our emotions, particularly our fears, to dominate our thoughts and choices. Our "negative" emotions, like anger, anxiety, fear, stress, betrayal, worry create a kind of "mental myopia" Nearsightedness We can't remember our past and the previous low points we've overcome We can't see a future where all of what's happening now has been resolved favorably We only see the present and a life filled with more of the same In the midst of crisis, all we can see is the immediate, insurmountable need We need to focus on the problem, but as calmly and rationally as possible What we really need is a new perspective a different way of seeing things there are more options than we think! The myopia of crisis often turns usintoparanoids We think the world, God, universe is out to get us or punish us We can only think of ourselves, our pain and struggle We forget we are part of a much bigger plan; that we are loved by many and we have come so far, though so much already! Emotional, spiritual endurance is so important! It's what this show is all about When the hard times come, you'll have the strength, the resources, techniques to get through them It gives you the ability to detach, in a healthy way, from the "now is all that exists" pattern of thinking Allows you to see that the tree in front of you is part of much larger forest Allows you to see more options, ponder and choose the best one Can turn us into "reverseparanoids" God, the universe, people, want us to succeed and are here to help us This is just a challenge, a test, not a punishment Replay the past to find your "Ebenezers" Ebenezer means "Stone of help" Monuments, reminders of having come through a hard time, or remind you of a place you never what to go back to Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing - Here I raise my Ebenezer; Hither by Thy help I’ve come; And I hope, by Thy good pleasure, Safely to arrive at home. If you have been alive for very long, you have experienced miracles in your life So many things are unexplainable by rational thought Bags of groceries, envelopes containing cash Missed or changed flights So many amazing 911 stories Miracles/Accomplishments: You were born You learned to walk and talk You've lived as long as you have in this fragile, dangerous world Sometimesweare blinded to the miracles in our lives because we think we've produced them Cynical: why give thanks for something I did by myself Question: just because we did it ourselves, does that make it any less of a miracle? Perspective: "There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle" — Albert Einstein Sometimes the miracle is simply our decision to make the best of a hard circumstance

LIAM 019 – Happiness is Directly Linked to Thankfulness

In this episode, I talk about how Happiness is directly linked to Thankfulness. If you want to be happier in life, you must learn how to feel and express gratitude for the way your life is right now. As you express thankfulness, you are focusing on what you want more of, instead of the problems which you want less of. What you focus on expands or increases, so focus more on being grateful and more of what you are grateful for will come into your life. Keeping a gratitude journal is just as important, if not more so, than keeping a victory log! Quotes from the show: What if you woke up tomorrow with only the things you gave thanks for today? Complaining about your current circumstances is the glue that keeps you attached to them. - Peter Sage When the Student is ready, the Teacher will appear. - Buddha Show outline: Veggie Tales - Madame Blueberry Though she was wealthy and had many things, she was a very "blue" berry. Recently, the topic of gratitude has come up frequently for me "What if you woke up tomorrow with only the things you gave thanks for today?" Ten years ago, I was like Madame Blueberry, but without all of the stuff I was grumpy and ungrateful, always expecting bad things to happen It's hard to be happy when everything is going wrong! You must WANT to be happy before you can BE happy. Happiness is directly linked to thankfulness Melody Beattie from The Language of Letting Go: Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. According to a Wikipedia article on Gratitude: A large body of recent work has suggested that people who are more grateful have higher levels of subjective well-being. Grateful people are happier, less depressed, less stressed, and more satisfied with their lives and social relationships. Grateful people also have higher levels of control of their environments, personal growth, purpose in life, and self acceptance. Importance of keeping a gratitude log/journal -- perhaps more important than a victory log Conditions your RAS to start looking for good things When reviewing victories, be grateful for each one If you have the list, it gives you something to look back on during the "down" days What you focus on expands/increases Complaining about your current circumstances is the glue that keeps you attached to them. - Peter Sage By focusing on the good, we move through or let go of the bad faster Hospital: Though I was very weak and in much pain, I was so thankful to each nurse and the care I received If you aren't getting what you want, try doing something different! Give gratitude a try. Change takes works! It takes practice! It takes determination and commitment! Not everyone is ready for this. - "When the Student is ready, the Teacher will appear" It has proven true in my life - the more thankful I am for what I have, the happier I am and the more opportunities come into my life!

Recently, the topic of gratitude has come up frequently for me "What if you woke up tomorrow with only the things you gave thanks for today?" Ten years ago, I was like Madame Blueberry, but without all of the stuff I was grumpy and ungrateful, always expecting bad things to happen It's hard to be happy when everything is going wrong! You must WANT to be happy before you can BE happy. Happiness is directly linked to thankfulness Melody Beattie from The Language of Letting Go: Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. According to a Wikipedia article on Gratitude: A large body of recent work has suggested that people who are more grateful have higher levels of subjective well-being. Grateful people are happier, less depressed, less stressed, and more satisfied with their lives and social relationships. Grateful people also have higher levels of control of their environments, personal growth, purpose in life, and self acceptance. Importance of keeping a gratitude log/journal -- perhaps more important than a victory log Conditions your RAS to start looking for good things When reviewing victories, be grateful for each one If you have the list, it gives you something to look back on during the "down" days What you focus on expands/increases Complaining about your current circumstances is the glue that keeps you attached to them. - Peter Sage By focusing on the good, we move through or let go of the bad faster Hospital: Though I was very weak and in much pain, I was so thankful to each nurse and the care I received If you aren't getting what you want, try doing something different! Give gratitude a try. Change takes works! It takes practice! It takes determination and commitment! Not everyone is ready for this. - "When the Student is ready, the Teacher will appear" It has proven true in my life - the more thankful I am for what I have, the happier I am and the more opportunities come into my life!

LIAM 017 – E+R=O: You Control Your Outcomes Because You Control Your Responses to Events

In this episode, I talk about how we control the outcomes in our lives by controlling our responses to events. The formula E+R=O shows us that, if we don't like the way a certain event has affected us (the outcome), we can change that by changing the way we respond that event. Show outline: Most people believe their lives are controlled by the events that happen in their lives, or, at least, they let their lives be directed by the events. It is easier to blame external forces than to claim responsibility Traffic made me late My boss/spouse/parent makes me so mad It's all the government's fault The economy is bad This type of thinking leaves us as the victim of circumstances You cannot change the event, but you can change the outcome by changing your response E+R=O - I learned it from Jack Canfield, but he got it from W. Clement Stone It's simple math. The Event is Constant. Your Response is the Variable that determines the answer (Outcome) Some examples: Event = Heavy Traffic. Outcome = Late for work, Anxious, Angry, Why Me?, need to make excuse to boss Alt 1: Response = My fault, I did leave on time. The world didn't end. Apologize, but take ownership Alt 2: There was a bad accident. Response = those poor people. So thankful that wasn't me. Apologize to boss, but keep those people in your thoughts/prayers, be thankful throughout day it wasn't you. Event = Someone runs a red light, nearly hits you. Outcome = Anger/Hatred toward person, victim Alt: Response = Person may have had a good reason to be in such a hurry. Hope all is OK. Compassion instead of rage. Just simply "Sorry, I'm late. I got held up in traffic" is better than "Oh, sorry I'm late. Can you believe that traffic out there. I was sitting there barely crawling..." The drama simply increases the stress and reinforces victim-thinking. Ownership / Responsibility always makes you feel better about yourself. Choose a response that is useful, leaves you in control of your feelings, and serves to build your self-esteem. It's all about the story you tell yourself about the event, how it fits with your self-image and world-view. It's not what other people say or do to you, it's about what you say or do to yourself afterwards Story of insulting an audience member Yourresponseshould be based on reality, not a lie--that won't help your self-esteem It's about framing the event in a way that is useful and helpful to you. Your ability to craft a differentstoryquicklyis based on your self-esteem/self-image, which is why it is so important to work on building these up. A high self-esteem makes you stronger, more resilient to negative events Listen to Episodes 14 & 15 Very often the best response is no response at all The event happened. Period. No response, no story, no drama. Let it go. A catastrophic event is painful, true,butmay be an opportunity for rebirth Andy Andrews' Gulf oil spill story There are many stories of people who turned catastrophe in to triumph You can use the E+R=O method to change how you feel about the past Nikki Schmutz decided to tell herself a different story, to choose a different response to the abuse she suffered as a child. If someone hurt you in the past, you continue to hurt yourself by replaying it as a victim. You continue to give that person or event power over your life. You can choose rewrite the story in the present This happened, but it is no longer happening. I can live victoriously. I can take control and have power over my present and future. This takes daily practice, but it can be liberating! You are only in control of YOUR response to an event, not anyone else's response. When you don't like how someone responds to an event, that is a new event for you and you must decide how to respond, if at all. Fear of how we think someone will respond often paralyzes us

LIAM 016 – A Journey from Darkness to Light: A Conversation with Nikki Schmutz

In this episode, I speak with Nikki Schmutz about her dramatic journey from darkness to light. Nikki suffered traumatic abuse at the age of 10 and kept it hidden from the world until she was 17. Her journey of healing and rebuilding her life is a story that everyone needs to hear and share with others who have gone through similar experiences. Quotes from the show: It's OK to admit that there's a whole lot wrong with you! - Nikki Schmutz Instead of just making sure I was OK, I would actually take steps forward into new places so that I could live, not just survive! - Nikki Schmutz An unknown path in front of you is not a bad thing. It can be incredibly good, and it can take you to things you never realized you wanted or happiness you never thought that you could have. - Nikki Schmutz What you have been through does not define you. It is just something that happened to you. There's a difference between what defines you and what you have to deal with, and you are in control of what defines you! - Nikki Schmutz Mentioned in this show: NikkiSchmutz On Twitter: @NikkiSchmutz On Facebook: /NikkiAnneSchmutzAuthor Community Orange Magazine Eat, Sleep, Write Run For Fun Cruise Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 015 – Make Deposits Into Your Emotional Bank Account!

This episode is a continuation of Episode 14, in which I talk about the importance of your emotional bank account. This episode breaks down some practical steps for making deposits to build up your self-esteem and confidence, which will overflow into every aspect of your life. Quotes from the show: Love is the bridge between you and EVERYTHING! — Rumi Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayers. — Maya Angelou Be the change that you wish to see in the world. —  Mahatma Gandhi You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean, in a drop. — Rumi Show outline: Building up your self-esteem, making deposits into your emotional bank account, is the most important thing you can do for yourself because it impacts all of your thoughts, decisions and actions When you love yourself and have confidence in yourself it creates success in every area of your life: business, personal, social, spiritual You cannot out-perform your self-image/worth Story of the Golden Buddha in Bangkok, Thailand Golden Buddha covered with clay in 1767 to prevent it being stolen by the Burmese invaders. The Burmese army killed everyone, so nobody knew the statue's value Real worth was undiscovered until 1955 We all are precious, valuable, creations, but have been covered with mud so our beauty isn't seen. We need to rediscover our true worth and contribute our beauty to the world! It all begins with love and gratitude Self-love is not conceited or self-centered, but it is essential to your self-esteem and self-worth Love is the bridge between you and EVERYTHING! - Rumi Learn to love and appreciate yourself and that will flow over to others When you don't love and value yourself, you sub-consciously send out a message to others that says: you shouldn't love and value me either! Express gratitude everywhere, for everything, all the time!  Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayers. - Maya Angelou Let "thank you" and "I love you" be the most used phrases in your daily speech. You alone are responsible for your own self-esteem! Be intentional about working on your self-esteem. Most people don't even think about it! You may not have gotten the love you wanted/need from parents You may have suffered hard situations beyond your control You may have made mistakes--we all have. Forgive yourself. Forgive others! No matter what your self-esteem level is right now, you can increase it to any level you want It will take practice and conscious, intentional effort every day If you want it bad enough, you can produce miracles in your life! Be the change you want to see in the world! The energy you put out, WILL come back to you Give praise - genuinely recognize and praise the people around you. It makes them feel better and like you more It makes YOU feel better by noticing the goodness around you By looking for the good things in the world, you open up that part of the RAS and you will see more good things in your life! Promote what you love, instead of bashing what you hate--you get what you focus on! Focus on what you want in life, not what you don't want Personally, relationally, politically "I want to be healthy and slim," instead of "I don't want to be fat." "I want a loving, trusting, encouraging relationship," instead of "I don't want to be lied to and put down all the time." Mother Teresa said she would never attend an Anti-War or Anti-Abortion protest/rally She would only attend Pro-Peace, Pro-Life celebrations While Self-Esteem is an internal thing, it is built in relationships with other people! Socialize with other like-minded people in settings that give you energy, brightens your world Support groups, civic associations, clubs, gym memberships, church groups (encouraging fellowship)

LIAM 014 – The “Rich” Get Richer! Why Your Emotional Bank Account is so Important

In this episode, I talk about the importance of building up your emotional bank account to allow you to fully engage, with confidence and enthusiasm, in the "game" of life. The reality is when you start winning, you tend to win more often. When you become "rich" in your emotional bank account, having a high self-esteem and confidence level, you will tend to become richer, having more success because you engage in life more fully and enthusiastically. Quotes from the show: You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes." - Winnie The Pooh (A.A. Milne) Show outline: Ran in the Color-Me Midlo 5K this weekend with my boys It's fun things like this that strengthen our relationship, create fun memories I also ran a 13.1 mile "benchmark" run to see where I am in relation to my goal Because I'm ahead of pace, this boosts my confidence in my ability to reach my goal! Every person on the planet has "bank" accounts Checking/Savings/Retirement When the balance in those accounts is high, we feel "secure" about our financial condition When low or overdrawn,we are stressed Impacts our decision-making ability Our attitude--the energy we put out Our self-worth is often tied to our financial worth Physical health When we feel good/healthy, we engage in life and enjoy doing physical things When low, we are withdrawn and don't engage in the physical aspects of life Emotional/Confidence/Self-Esteem This is my main focus in the work I do! Life is like a game. Self-worth/confidence bank account determines how you play the game of life Poker: The more chips you have, the better you play Monopoly: the more emotional resources you have, the better you play When a player gets ahead and has more resources, the player takes more chances, has more fun, doesn't sweat the occasional loss, and usually wins! So the metaphor of the Rich get Richer holds true. Shyness can be personality type, but is often lack of confidence, fear of rejection You need to make more deposits than withdrawals in ALL of your accounts, but MOSTLY your Emotional accounts Set yourself up for victory! Do things that give you energy, make you feel good Put yourself in situations that at least give you opportunities to win/socialize, etc. Surround yourself with people who lift you up, not tear you down Listen to/watch motivational, self-improvement material YOU are responsible for your own happiness, your own emotional bank account levels Record all of your victories/success just like you would your bank deposits Review them regularly - Nightly/Weekly/Monthly NEVER record failures Failures happen, but only record or talk to yourself in terms of what you will do differently next time! Be very aware of negative self-talk and try to remove it. Love yourself unconditionally for who you are, what you are, where you are! Some of the "richest" people I know are not rich because of their finances. They are rich because of what they believe about themselves and the life they enjoy because of it!

LIAM 013 – A Positive Attitude Will Unlock Many of Life’s Doors

In this episode, I talk about how your attitude is the key to success in every area of life--professional, personal, and social. Your attitude, how you show up and the energy you bring to every situation, will open or close doors of opportunities. A positive attitude will not, necessarily, enable you to do everything, but it will help you do everything better. Be sure, every day, in every situation, to choose a useful attitude. Quotes from the show: Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude. - Zig Ziglar Your I CAN is more important that your IQ - Robin S. Sharma A positive mental attitude will not let you do everything, but it will let you do everything better! - Zig Ziglar Show outline: Took my boys to see Earth, Wind and Fire last night and had an amazingly fun time Youngest son did not want to go and put on a serious pout Before the show started I said to him "you get to choose whether you have fun or not." It took a while, but he made the transition to choose fun Throughout the show, we danced together! Attitude is EVERYTHING! It's a recurrent theme that is so important to life! Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude. -- Zig Ziglar Your I CAN is more important that your IQ -- Robin S. Sharma It's all about how you show up in the world, the energy you put out there This energy (your attitude about yourself, others and situations) attracts and repels people Your success inlifeis determined more by your attitude than your aptitude! Think about some of the most successful people you know. What makes them so successful? Is it natural gifts/abilities? Surely there are smarter, more gifted people It is their attitude--their desire to succeed, there desire to get along with people who can help them? Do you believe in yourself? Do you have an I CAN attitude? Do you realize that other people hold the keys to what you want, so you have to get along with them and make them like you?

LIAM 013 – A Positive Attitude Will Unlock Many of Life’s Doors

In this episode, I talk about how your attitude is the key to success in every area of life--professional, personal, and social. Your attitude, how you show up and the energy you bring to every situation, will open or close doors of opportunities. A positive attitude will not, necessarily, enable you to do everything, but it will help you do everything better. Be sure, every day, in every situation, to choose a useful attitude. Quotes from the show: Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude. - Zig Ziglar Your I CAN is more important that your IQ - Robin S. Sharma A positive mental attitude will not let you do everything, but it will let you do everything better! - Zig Ziglar Show outline: Took my boys to see Earth, Wind and Fire last night and had an amazingly fun time Youngest son did not want to go and put on a serious pout Before the show started I said to him "you get to choose whether you have fun or not." It took a while, but he made the transition to choose fun Throughout the show, we danced together! Attitude is EVERYTHING! It's a recurrent theme that is so important to life! Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude. -- Zig Ziglar Your I CAN is more important that your IQ -- Robin S. Sharma It's all about how you show up in the world, the energy you put out there This energy (your attitude about yourself, others and situations) attracts and repels people Your success inlifeis determined more by your attitude than your aptitude! Think about some of the most successful people you know. What makes them so successful? Is it natural gifts/abilities? Surely there are smarter, more gifted people It is their attitude--their desire to succeed, there desire to get along with people who can help them? Do you believe in yourself? Do you have an I CAN attitude? Do you realize that other people hold the keys to what you want, so you have to get along with them and make them like you? Youmay be the smartest, brightest, most qualified candidate for a job Do you have an entitlement attitude--I showed up, so give me the job? Do you have a team player--I can contribute great things to make this company great--attitude? You may be the best athlete, but if you can't get along with the coaches and other players, nobody will want you to play for their team Your success in work and personalrelationshipswill be based on your attitude The rich get richer, the happy have good things happen in there lives, largely because of the energy they put out Apositivemental attitude will not let you do everything, but it will let you do everything better! -ZigZiglar A positive, friendly attitude does not guarantee success But a negative, critical, distrustful attitude will always hold you back The good news is you don’t need to have any special skills or training to have a positive attitude, you simply have to choose it!

LIAM 012 – You Are A World-Changer! You and the Butterfly Effect

In this episode, I tell you that you are a world-changer! You may not think you are, but you absolutely are. Every day, in every way you interact with people and the world around you, you are sending out messages and energy into the universe that, through the phenomenon of the Butterfly Effect, change the world. The changes may be small or large, but you are changing the world and have since the day you were born. Listen to the show to hear what I mean. Show outline: I want to tell you something you may not have heard in a while, if ever: YOU are a world-changer! Stop looking around. Yes, I mean YOU! You matter! What you do matters. But why you do it matters the most! Email to a friend who stepped out of her comfort zone and went on a medical missions trip to Honduras Rose, the old woman at Sam's Club, impacts the lives of countless people! The story of 3 Bricklayers: Someone approaches three bricklayers and asks "what are you doing?" They reply in turn: What does it look like I'm doing? I'm sweating in hot sun laying bricks. I'm laying bricks to make a day's wage to feed my family I'm building a magnificent Cathedral. People will come from all over the world to see its beauty and marvel at God's blessings. It will change their lives and they will tell more people who will come and their lives will be changed. My part is small, but these bricks and my work are part of a beautiful creation! It's all about perspective: how you see your life as being intimately, directly connected to the lives of others Everyone is important and significant Everything you do and, more importantly, the attitude with which you do it, effects the universe You don't have to go on missions trips or build cathedrals. What you do where you are is vitally important Being a mom or dad, sister, brother, neighbor, coworker Saying "Hi" and smiling to strangers Sharing your faith or world-view Sharing an inspirational message or fun story It doesn't matter how old or young or how popular you are My 11-yo son is a world changer, has been since he was born So are you! We are all connected. We don't live in isolation Think of how others have changed you and your world-view It's about your attitude, how you see yourself and how you show up in the world The Butterfly Effect is constantly working, whether you know it or not.

LIAM 011 – An Unplanned Night in Chicago; The Butterfly Effect of Generosity

In this episode of the Life Is A Marathon show, I talk about how a missed connection in Chicago forced me to spend a night in a hotel, which led me to doing a not-so-random act of kindness, which produced a completely unexpected result--the Butterfly Effect. This story illustrates how we should always have an open mind to the events in our lives and try to find meaning in them. We should be ever vigilant for opportunities to help strangers, but we should also understand that kindness radiates out and touches people in unexpected ways! Show outline: I had been in Denver and was traveling back home to Richmond. I knew I had a 3-hour layover in Chicago and had made plans to have  dinner with a good friend. My flight out of Denver got delayed, which frustrated me because I was really looking forward to dinner. My flight was delayed even more so I knew I would miss my connection  to Richmond It was around 11:30pm when I arrived in Chicago I took a shuttle to the hotel. It was cold, windy night with a mix of snow and sleet that pelted my face as I dashed from the shuttle to the hotel lobby, where the line to check in was almost out the door. Front-desk clerk was being rude to a young woman whose credit card was declined I checked into my room, but couldn't get the thought of the woman out of my mind I returned to the now empty lobby to find her sitting on a bench crying I paid for her room Thinking that was the reason for my changed plans, I slept well until morning. At checkout, the same clerk was there He told me how amazed he was by my generosity Convinced I had helped the girl and that was the reason for my delay, I told him that there are no accidents in life and that God causes our paths to cross with people for a purpose He stared for a moment and said "I will think about what you have said. For a very long time" It was then that I realized it wasn't the girl I had helped the most. It was the clerk. We need to be open-minded about the frustrating changes to our plans Shift your perspective to be looking for a new opportunity We need to be looking for the potential meaning, or what we can learn from and use to grow out of each situation We need to keep our eyes open for opportunities to help people We need to realize that we never help just one person We benefit from generosity ourselves--personal growth Generosity creates a "butterfly effect" that touches lives in ways we can never imagine. Mentioned in this show: Community Orange Magazine - "Who Will You Be at the Masquerade?"

LIAM 010 – You Are Always Training for Something. Is it Success, Mediocrity, or Failure?

In this episode of the Life Is A Marathon show, I talk about how every thought, word, decision, action, is a form of training. You are constantly conditioning your mind and body to do the very same thing. Set the intention of training for success instead of mediocrity or failure. Quotes from the show: No matter what you do, you are always training for something! What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family! - Mother Teresa Show outline: I learned so much about life and mindset by training for a marathon You CAN Go the Distance! You CAN change your life by changing your thoughts Blog post in Aug. 2014 - You are always training for something! You are always training your brain, which trains your body, which creates habits, which directs your life! Running/Workout example Skip a run/workout because it's raining or you just don't feel like it Students/Studying Know you should study, but put it off until later You DO NOT work best under pressure - That's a lie It's more fun to text or Facetime than to unplug and concentrate Relationships Not asking someone out because of fear of rejection Putting off that difficult conversation Choosingto be sarcastic It's not cute, it's not funny, it's not helping your relationships It's all about intention and attitude Your intention, attitude, outlook determine how you show up in the world Look for the good everywhere Live like an explorer, always looking for new lands and hidden treasure You need to START and build momentum/inertia A rocket consumes 80% of it's fuel in the first few seconds just to get off the ground An airplane burns fuel and the pilot makes massive adjustments to get the plane up and pointed in the right direction. In flight there are constant, but minor, course corrections due to wind or to avoid storms Everyone on the plane feels the takeoff and the initial direction changes Once in-flight, the adjustments are barely felt at all You CAN Do it Train to change Train to win Celebrate and recalibrate along the way Invest in yourself - you are your greatest asset Surround yourself with positive, encouraging people Put educational/motivation information in your ears and eyes Invest a coach, or at least, personal development programs Mentioned in this show: Bruce Van Horn - You are always training for something!

LIAM 008 – Set Yourself Up for Victory; Learn from Your Successes!

In Episode #8 of the Life Is A Marathon show, I speak about the importance of setting yourself up for victory and of learning more from your successes than from your failures. Far too often, through the way we think and speak, we project the opposite outcome we actually want. We say and think more about what we don't want than about what we do want. I also address how the popular business "buzz" is to "fail fast" and learn from our mistakes. I disagree! It's best to "win fast" and build on our successes! Quotes from the show: All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. — Ralph Waldo Emerson Show outline: Comment from a reader of my blog about the "Push yourself to the point of failure" post Dan Erickson: I’m reading a book called “Rework” and the authors would disagree. The idea of failure to succeed is overrated. What if we push ourselves to the point of success? I agree - we learn much more from our successes than we do from our failures! I wrote in Sept 2013 - Focus on Your Strengths, Not Your Weakness Set yourself up for victory every day, in every situation Business coaches are fond of saying "fail fast" I say "succeed fast" It's very important have BHAGs (Big Hairy Audacious Goals) - dreams for the future that you work towards More important to "chunk it down" into small, bit-sized, very doable goals Creates a "I'm winning!" attitude Creates the "snowball effect" / momentum As you win, keep raising the bar by doing more "winning" things and pushing harder All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. - Ralph Waldo Emerson Failure will happen Don't expect it / accept it You can learn from it, but don't focus on what you did wrong Don't project a negative outcome in your speech or thought Instead of telling a child "don't drop this", which is what you don't want Say "please, carry this very carefully" which IS what you want Celebrate the victory when it is accomplished! Try to find the things that went right, but not enough of that was done What was working that you didn't do in this situation Get back on track mentally by going back to what worked Keep a Victory Log You get what you look for/expect in life If you try to fail fast, you will! Record all the victories, big and small Review your day to recognize what went right, well, made you happy, made someone else happy Look back over the list each week / each month You'll see how many victories you have! I've also blogged about this: Set Yourself Up for Victory; Learn from Your Successes! Mentioned in this show: Bruce Van Horn - Discover your potential. Push yourself to the point of failure!

LIAM 007 – Life After the Death of a Child: A Conversation with Adam Crawford

In Episode #7 of the Life Is A Marathon show, I share a conversation with Adam Crawford in which we talk about the death of their daughter, Layla Chandler Crawford. Adam and his wife are still working through the pain and questions inherent in this trauma, but they are making many healthy decisions to move forward, continue to live, raise their son, and honor the brief life of their little girl.

LIAM 005 – Personal Branding: Everyone is Self-Employed

In Episode #5 of the Life Is A Marathon show, I explore a personal branding topic: Everyone is Self-Employed. It doesn't matter who signs your paycheck or what you do, you must do it with the attitude/mindset that you are self-employed, that you represent the most important brand in the world: YOU! Having the mindset of being a brand and being solely responsible for how you represent your brand, helps you show up in the world in an entirely different way than if you have the mindset of just going to a job. Quotes from the show: Work is love made visible. And if you can't work with love, but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of the people who work with joy ― Khalil Gibran Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude. ― Zig Ziglar Every job is a self-portrait of the person who did it ... Autograph your work with excellence. ― Vince Lombardi Show outline: Life coaching issues Personal presentation is very important Get work/Get promoted Improve relationships Must create foundational mindset for success Can't build sustainable behavior change if mindset doesn't support it Topic: Regardless of who signs your paycheck, you are self-employed The primary factor for success is connections and relationships Your ability to connect with and build relationships with people impacts every area of your life Regardless of how good you are, people do business with people/companies they like and trust "Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude." - Zig Ziglar You are your own brand! You own and represent a brand named You, Inc. You are self-employed You are CEO - casting the vision and direction of the company You are head of Marketing - Creating connections/relationships so people know your name You are head of Public Relations - you must deal with people who are upset with you Most importantly, you are in Sales - you are responsible for getting new clients Embracing this idea will make you more successful in every area of your life Relationships will improve Job opportunities will appear Great companies are built around 2 foundational principles Providing the best products or services Love for their customers and a desire to keep customers for life! What they don't teach you in school Job Interviewing 101 You are NOT entitled to anything - especially a job! You are not applying for a job, you are trying to gain a customer People don't buy features, they buy benefits and feelings Do not say "here are my qualifications for this job, how much will you pay me?" Sell your benefits - how you can solve problems, increase their profit, ease their pain Make it about your customer's needs, not about you or your desire for money Ask questions Do you want your customers to be greeted with big smile and sincere "how are you"? Do you want your customers feel like they are genuinely appreciate and valued so they come back time and time again? Do you have a hard time hiring employees who love their work, show up on time, smile while they are here, and do the work as if they owned the company? If so, here's what you can expect from me.... Love the work you are doing right now! See your employer as your customer See everyone you meet in the course of your day as a potential customer or referral to a customer Do the work you are hired to do with the greatest enthusiasm and highest quality because it reflects on your brand! See the work you do as part of a much bigger picture! The box you just loaded on to the truck is very important to the person who will receive it--it may change their lives The person you are speaking to on the phone has their own set of issues, values, etc and deserves as much respect as you do--they may tell someone about how you treated them.

LIAM 004 – We do not Decide our Futures, We Decide our Habits

In Episode #4 of the Life Is A Marathon show, I explore the idea that we really do not decide our futures. Rather, we decide our habits, and our habits determine our futures. If we want to change who and what we are, we must change our habits. If we want excellence, we must develop habits that move us towards excellence. People do not decide their futures, they decide their habits and their habits decide their futures. — F. Matthias Alexander We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit. – Aristotle Show outline: Foundational questions: What do you want to be? Who do you want to be? What do you want your future life to look, feel, taste and smell like? What did your childhood smell like? - Michael O'Neal - Soloprenuer Hour Today's topic: People do not decide their futures, they decide their habits and their habits decide their futures. Who we are,right now is the sum of all of our thoughts and actions We think about 50,000 thoughts per day 90% of which are repetitive 70% of which are negative "How I wound up where I was" No plan, just living day-to-day doing the same things, thinking the same thoughts as yesterday Our habits control us more than we think Watching TV Same weekend routines Eating the same meals Always going to the same restaurants Seeking the comfortable, familiar things Unless we change our behaviors/thoughts, we will never change Live intentionally Get out of your comfort zone by doing something different, challenging Have goals and plans for your life Evaluate every thought/action on whether it moves you closer to or farther away from your goal Will you join me on this journey of change, creativity, transformation? I want people to see you a year from now and say "Wow, you've really changed! I like it! What did you do?" We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit. – Aristotle Let's build into our lives the habits that will make us successful!

LIAM 003 – Man’s Search for Meaning – What do we do when life doesn’t go as expected?

In Episode #3 of the Life Is A Marathon show, I review the book "Man's Search for Meaning" by Viktor Frankl, taking the main points and applying them to our current lives. We explore the hard question many of us face at times in our lives: "What do we do when life doesn't go as expected?" When we can no longer change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves. – Viktor Frankl He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how. – Friedrich Nietzsche Show outline: Correction/Clarification of "Read, Fire, Aim" illustration This is an example of making a mistake, being able to realign and fire again! "When we can no longer change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." – Viktor Frankl Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl This book needs to be on everyone's "must read" list! Overview of the book Horrible treatment of the prisoners No longer called by names, just their numbers What does one do when you have nothing left to lose but your ridiculously naked body? What happens when life does not turn out or give you what you expected it to? What do you do when you cannot control other people or circumstances? How do you face significant loss or setbacks in life? You must ask different questions What does life expect from me? What must I do to survive today? It's easier to be the "victim," to point fingers and blame than it is to take responsibility for your attitude You are 100% responsible for your thoughts and attitude E + R = O Peace comes when we let go how we think the world should be and find the truth of what is. Acceptance of your life as it is now is the key to peace Doesn't mean you don't work to change it Survivors are more "other" focused than they are "me" focused Focusing on helping and encouraging others strengthens yourself Believe that you are part of something bigger than you and your own desires Those who survived were not the strongest, meanest. They were the ones with a big WHY! "He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how." – Friedrich Nietzsche Mentioned in this show: Man's Search for Meaning - Viktor Frankl Bruce's reading list: www.brucevanhorn.com/reading-list Kent Julian - Speaking Coach Run For Fun Cruise You CAN Go the Distance! - Bruce Van Horn Subscription/Social Links: Subscribe on iTunes!

LIAM 002 – The Starting Line

In Episode #2 of the Life Is A Marathon show, I discuss the metaphor of being at the starting line of something new--it could be a race, a life change, starting a new business, taking classes to improve yourself--whatever it is, starting lines are exciting, but scary places. I talk about some of the reasons many people never approach the starting lines in their lives and I give you some ways to move passed those self-imposed road-blocks. The primary reason for underachievement is that people don't decide to be successful. - Brian Tracy Do one thing every day that scares you. - Eleanor Roosevelt Show outline:  The Starting Line No matter how old you are or what you've experienced, your life is just beginning People don't become successful because they don't decide to be - Brian Tracy The hardest part of starting something is deciding to do it and taking the first step If you want to achieve what you've never achieved before, you need to do things you've never done before. You have more time in your day than you think you do How much time do you waste watching TV, surfing the net or social media? Brian Tracy's E-to-E ratio says: Unsuccessful people spend most of their free time on entertainment, while successful people spend most of their free time on education Work 8 hours, sleep 8 hours, still leaves another 8 Fastest climb of Mt. Everest: Pem Dorjee (2004) 8:10 - leaving 15:50 left to enjoy the view Devoting even 30 minutes, or 1 hour per day to personal development can change your life! I know you're scared, do it scared Eleanor Roosevelt said you must do at least one thing a day that scares you Most fear is a fear of criticism, not failure - Napoleon Hill family and friends can be discouragers instead of encouragers Limiting beliefs are usually introduced by family and peer group bucket of crabs syndrome Surround yourself with people who are supportive Spend some time every single day listening to motivational content Know that you are going to make mistakes, have failures Let yourself off the hook right up front Mistakes and failures are all part of learning If you know this going into it, they won't be as upsetting to you and you can move on I'm nervous and know I'm going to make mistakes with this podcast I know I'll get better and build confidence with each episode I record Ready, fire, aim, fire again Love your life NOW Love, appreciate, and express gratitude for everything in your life right now Don't say "when I am, or when I have.. my life will be better" That is operating from lack, rather than abundance You are spending negative energy thinking about what you don't have You have everything you NEED right now! Your life will not BE great until you believe that your life IS great! Keep a victory log and success journal Look for those $.11 moments, the small victories Testimonial from Adam Crawford Mentioned in this show: Brian Tracy - www.briantracy.com Napoleon Hill - Think And Grow Rich Javier Sotomayor - World Record High Jump - YouTube Video BruceVanHorn.com - Discover your potential.
