Episode 030: "Whats' Next?
“What’s Next?” Setting and pursuing fitness goals can be hard. But achieving them can sometimes be harder… at least, that has been my experience. I don’t mean the process or journey of the accomplishment, I mean when you have officially achieved your goal. After you're done, what’s next? This...

Episode 029: "Save My Pictures"
“Save My Pictures” At the house I grew up in there were a number of my relatives that lived within walking distance. This included my Aunt Barb who lived just across the alley from us. Our front doors shared a line of sight and we’d often waive to each other as we would come and go. Aunt Barb was...

Episode 028: “Start With Why”
“Start With Why” Simon Sinek, author of “Start With Why” and speaker of multiple “Ted Talks”, has a concept that has fascinated me since the first time I learned about it. He says, in order to be a leader you must be able to inspire, but in order to inspire, you must first know your “why”. This…

Episode 027: “How Can I?”
“How Can I?” I hadn’t played flag football in at least 2 years. My friend Xavier, who we call "X", had me come out and play with some guys we have played with throughout the years. It was just a friendly pickup game, weekend warrior type stuff, nothing serious. The problem wasn’t just that I…

Episode 026" "Get Out Of Your Head"
“Get Out of Your Head” When attending a conference you’ll typically head to the registration table, get your lanyard, itinerary, S.W.A.G. etc. Then, you might flip through the schedule looking for classes you’d like to attend and speakers you’d like to hear. Not this one. This one, is more like...

Episode 025: "Trust Your Vision"
"Trust Your Vision” Yesterday I shared a story about taking “Imperfect Action”, a lesson I learned while installing my own flooring. The truth is, that wasn’t the only thing I learned during that time. Turns out, your mind will wander when you sitting on a floor for 8 hours. One of the things…

Episode 024: "Imperfect Action”
"Imperfect Action” A few weeks ago I decided to change our flooring. The original floors were tile and were likely there from when the house was originally built, so it was time for a change. I didn’t think it would be a huge deal because I would be laying down laminate wood flooring which I have...
-
Episode 023: "He Just Looked Down"
“He Just Looked Down” Growing up we all had idols, people that we liked or wanted to be like. Whether it was an athlete, movie star, Evel Knievel or whoever, we all had somebody that we wanted to be like. I have heard through most of my life, that if I want to be successful at something I need to...
-
Episode 022: "Hi, I'm Brandon, And I'm An Alcoholic"
“Hi, I’m Brandon, and I’m an Alcoholic” What if I woke up every single morning and told myself that to start the day? How many times would I have to repeat that to myself before it actually came true? This came up during an interview I was conducting recently. My guests Kristine Modzelewskii and...
-
Episode 021: "Blind Runner"
"Blind Runner” Sometimes while focusing on our goals and missions to BE more and HAVE more, we can often lose sight of what we already ARE and HAVE. This has been happening to me lately. Not that I am unhappy with who I am or what I have, or even that I am ungrateful. It’s just that, often I get…

Episode 020: “How Can Someone So Little, Make Me Feel So Small”
Lately Camden has been asking, almost daily, if we can have family game night. With Makaiylah’s soccer schedule it makes it kind of tough to get us all together at the same time on any given night. But we promised him we could start having one. Typically we don’t play many board games so we don’t...

Episode 019: Fear. Embarrassment. Ego.
Fear. Embarrassment. Ego (F.E.E.) I am currently in a 30-day challenge to improve my business that involves implementing newer strategies to help differentiate yourself. Today in that challenge, I was asked to write down the reasons why I have yet to take action on something I believe in. I wrote...
-
Episode 018: A Smooth Sea Never Made A Skilled Sailor
"A Smooth Sea Never Made A Skilled Sailor” My good friend Ryan Miller Time LV shared this quote with about a year ago and it has stuck with me ever since. Mostly because of the amount of truth to it, but also the fact I use it as a constant reminder while I’m trying to improve myself each day. In...
-
Episode 017: "3 Month Progress Report"
“3 Month Progress Report” Back on October 24th, I made a BOLD goal of mine public on Facebook. You can read it here: http://bit.ly/2Uh5HdA I said that I would grow my current team of 12 real estate agents all the way to 100 in 6 months. Not an easy task, and in most models, practically…

Episode 016: "Sixty-Eight"
"Sixty-Eight" Is that it? Just 68 more times... I saw a good friend of mine recently and he asked me if I had still been writing my stories. He hadn’t seen any on FaceBook lately and wanted to know what was going on. Unfortunately my answer was, “not really?". Then a couple days later I got a…

Episode 013: “A Tough Lesson”
“A tough lesson” She reaches down to tighten her laces as she stands on the fresh cut grass, then gets into position. The whistle blows, signaling to start. She takes 3 steps and BOOM! The ball launches off of her foot just past the goalie’s outstretched hands and finds the back of the net and…

Episode 015: “Is this what I signed up for?”
“Is this what I signed up for?” Just over 3 weeks ago I made a commitment to my family and myself. After slowly “letting myself go”, AGAIN. It was decided that I would commit for the next 7 weeks to a Crossfit challenge that would test my physical and mental limits and discipline. During this...

Episode 014: "Check My Ego at the Door
“Check My Ego at the Door” Today I decided to go into my favorite coffee shop in town. Desert Wind Coffee Roasters. It has been awhile since I have been in there but this morning I decided I was going to make a trip there. I needed a re-charge and for whatever reason, this place does it for me. I...
-
Episode 012: "Future Me"
"Future Me" It’s easy to stay motivated when things are new. Like starting a new job, new relationship, new idea, new workout… But when that newness wears off and it’s time to find additional motivation, things can get difficult. Most of us are wired for the short game, craving that instant...
-
Episode 011: "Not What I Had Planned"
"Not What I Had Planned" Lately, I have been pretty lax on my Ketogenic based diet. Slowly letting myself indulge just a little bit, then a little bit more and a little bit more. Unfortunately, I can feel that neglect, mainly when I feel the resistance from my belly as I reach down to tie my…

Episode 010: "ALWAYS create for those who will, NEVER create for those who won’t"
"ALWAYS create for those who will, NEVER create for those who won’t" Artists create. They create whether someone will like what they’ve come up with or not, but in the end they create. Others, like myself, struggle through that process. Even when we think we have great ideas our attempts fall…

Episode 009: "What if Failure Didn't Matter?"
"What if Failure Didn't Matter?" Would you be likely to take more risk or simply continue what you’re doing? This “F” word is quite possibly more powerful than the real one. This word has the ability to build up, break down, inspire and discourage. Some welcome it, some learn from it and some…

Episode 008: "34"
"34" Yesterday I decided it was time for a new pair of jeans so I headed out to the store. I hate shopping. I like to walk in, grab what I need and walk back out. Get in. Get out. I’m even like this in Costco. Speed-walking through, weaving in and out of flatbed and red cart traffic, with an...

Episode 007: "The Struggle is Real"
"The Struggle is Real” Today I basically have a half day of work before getting the kids and heading off to see a show tonight. So time is critical. I have to make every minute count. On my checklist, I have a number of things to get done before I go get them. Including sending some documents…

Episode 006: "Hitting Singles"
"Hitting Singles” It is no secret that I have been training to become a storyteller. Although I have only been sharing my stories for the past 5 months or so, I have been studying, researching and prating for over 2 years. For example, last week I spent 4 hours (a 21/2 hour movie) watching “The...

Episode 005: The Big Snooze Part II
"The Big Snooze Part II” Staring at the cold, dim-lit sidewalk with my hands on my knees, I slowly look up to see the 2 stalled cars in the middle of the busy street, cars passing by. I look to my friend and say… “The F@cking Big Snooze” If you aren’t familiar with The Big Snooze, it is what Jen...

Episode: 004 "It's Not Just A Game"
“It’s Not Just A Game" Typically we look at the Xbox, Playstation or any other gaming console and assume that it is just for entertainment, offering no real value. Im some cases this may be true, but there can actually be value found in gaming consoles. Recently, my daughter picked up her guitar...

Episode: 003 "Follow Up to Pedroia"
Yeah, WOW… Yesterday’s post https://bit.ly/2pDChss, probably got some people thinking… “Is Brandon ok? He just brought some shit up from like, 20 years ago”. To which I assure you, I am good, better than good actually. But I get it, that wasn’t the type of thing that people, especially those who...
-
Episode 002: "Pedroia"
When I was growing up all I wanted to do was play baseball and why not? I was going to play professionally. There was no doubt in my mind, it wasn't a matter of IF but WHEN. Baseball consumed me to the point I tried convincing my dad I needed a batting cage in our back yard. I went as far as…
