EPISODE LXXVII: BUILD AND BELIEVE

Sometimes we hurt too many people and make way too many mistakes and believe there is no hope.  I have been really working on myself for a couple of years and I can't let the sins of my past become the roadblocks of my present.  Otherwise there is no future.  So I talk about how we can build a better version of ourselves and believe everything will work out.

EPISODE LXXVI: PROCRASTINATION AND PATIENCE

 It's a fine line we walk.  Learning how to have patience for things to come, but not getting it confused with not taking any action steps to get there.  I talk about the dangers and potential losses when it comes to procrastinating, and how some times the waiting is the hardest part, as the poet Tom Petty said, but it may be worth it and much more satisfying. 


MUSIC FROM THIS WEEK

I CAN HELP - Billy Swan
DO IT LATER - Dave Whiten Saga
THE WAIT - Metallica
WAITING FOR LOVE - Avicii
FEELS LIKE THE FIRST TIME - Foreigner
IS ANYBODY LISTENING - Queensryche

THE SCREAMING MIND


 If there is one thing I have learned over the last couple of decades is that my mind ran the show. The second guessing, the bad esteem, the anxiety, all of those things. I didn't do the necessary things I needed to do to get my mind right. It cost me plenty, but it also hurt those around me. (read more)

EPISODE LXXV: THE NEXT LEVEL


 What does the next level mean to you?  Maybe it's a new job, new car, new something.  Maybe it is when you peel away a version of yourself and find a more authentic you.  Either way, let's talk about this and perhaps you can find what the next level means for you
