It's All You
A quick note... I often ponder on a chapter subject for a weeks, and sometimes even longer, but once I start writing, I can complete it all in one shot and I hit save. Once I start typing it just flows out - but not this time. I've been wanting to talk about today’s topic for a while, which is good, but today is day 7, yes SEVEN, that I try and finish it. Seven days to write one darn chapter. Not plan, ponder, prepare, etc. That parts all done, I know what I need to say and what...
YOU ARE AMAZING
YOU are fully capable of amazing things.
Last week my wife Koral and I were out of town, and we had a 5 hour drive (each way) to enjoy, so we took the opportunity to catch up on some much needed Jim Rohn philosophies and insights.
For a combined total of roughly 11 hours in a car, we listened to absolutely nothing but Jim Rohn, and I realized something: If more people took the time to care about where their life is going, their life would be substantially different.
Take last week for example. I was at our...
The Missing Link
"Those who don't make time for regular exercise will eventually have to make time for illness"

Don’t Give Up
Don’t give up, you are worth it
Before I get into this chapter, I have 3 quick points to make...
1 - Nothing worthwhile was ever achieved without significant effort. Note the word SIGNIFICANT. Nothing worth something comes easy. Little effort, little results. And this applies to… EVERYTHING.
2 - You can't OUT-TRAIN a BAD diet. If you bust your butt in the gym several times a week then eat like crap all week, well, guess what, you'll notice LIMITED, if any, changes. Don't expect the body you want, the million dollar body, while...
Hope Dealer
Are you a HOPE DEALER?
This one's short and sweet with some thoughts on hope.
For a long time I believed that if more people had hope that their lives would be drastically improved.
I'm a big fan of John C Maxwell and his books, and in many of his books he talks about being a HOPE dealer.
And I believed that's all it took was hope.
I thought to myself “if I could show people that there's hope, they’d do what needs to be done”.
I run into so many people that...
