Description
950 miles an hour. That’s fast. But it’s not nearly as fast as Ed Rush flew in his combat career as a decorated F-18 pilot which included over 50 combat missions and 2 tours to Iraq. While in the Marines, Ed served as the one of the country’s leading instructors on aerial dog fighting and recently worked as a key player in the development of the new F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.
After 2 combat tours to Iraq, Ed left full-time active duty to speak, write, and share a message that will change the world. He’s a 5-Time #1 Best Selling Author and Amazon’s #1 Business Author. Ed’s clients range from small startups to multi-million dollar – multi-national organizations and include CEOs, founders, political leaders, sports teams, national universities, and Hollywood stars.

Welcome to a power-packed episode of Ed Talks Live! From the fiery lessons of homemade kimchi to supernatural stories of obedience, this one hits every note — business, faith, obedience, and comedy. You'll hear about a woman who followed a stranger home (legally, we promise), insights on God’s voice vs. your own, and a breakdown of the U.S.–China trade drama. Oh, and don’t miss the world’s most unexpectedly brilliant mobile home commercial.
Prayer is Partnering with God to Get Things Done. Think about it like this. Every form of human communication is designed to get things done. Your loving conversations with a spouse are going somewhere. Your mentoring conversions with your kids are going somewhere. Shoot...when you tell your dog to “sit” it’s going somewhere. Prayer is no different. To put it this way: God created the world and He created you. He wants the world to get better and he wants you to have a BIG part in that process.
You’d think fighter pilots would have a lot of rules. But even with all the training sessions, manuals, and checklists, there is really only just one rule: Don’t Screw It Up. That’s pretty much it. Looking cool is optional. So is talking cool. Whatever you do...just...Don’t...Screw…It...Up.
To be Blunt: over the next 3 and a half years, the world (and especially the United States) is going to go through a change so dramatic that 1776 will PALE in comparison. And if you look closely, you can see it happening everywhere. The Revolution can be simply stated as: The Revolt of the Little Guy. If you want it more categorically, then write this down... Revolution #1 is The People vs. BIG Business Revolution #2 is The People vs Fake Money Revolution #3 is The People vs. Fake Science and Revolution #4 is The People vs. BIG Government
Achieve Total Mind Control Now I know that verbiage sounds harsh. Between us, I mean it to sound that way. That’s because there is literally nothing more important than being a master of your thoughts. Everything good starts with how you think...and certainly everything bad starts there too. Have you ever wondered why some people can be so happy even in bad circumstances? It’s all in the mind. The faster you learn to control your thinking, the faster you’ll be onto changing the world. Simply put: the fastest way to think well is to be around people who think like you want to think.
Everything you were taught about Goal Setting is wrong. You have been told to set “SMART Goals.” (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound.) Yeah, that’s a bunch of baloney. So let’s talk about how to really accomplish big things…
No offense to any Star Trek fans, but Space isn’t the Final Frontier. SPEED is. If you want to change the world, you’re going to have to do more in less time. That’s why this week’s Flight Brief is focused on how to dial in the most important piece of content you will ever create...which is your book. According to a recent study, over 200 Million people want to write a book (in the U.S. alone). But last year only 304,000 books were published. That’s 191,695,000 people who didn’t get it done. Why not make this the year you jump into the 1%.
Whether you’re wrestling with belief, trying to find your audience, or wondering if you should charge for your God-given gifts… this episode delivers. What You’ll Learn: How Ed’s pre-cancer diagnosis mysteriously disappeared. The surprising link between belief and healing. Why viral videos really go viral (Cat Fancy, anyone?) Should you charge for divine downloads? Attracting vs. repelling in marketing—and why it matters. The role of curiosity, risk, and wonder in your spiritual journey.
WHAT a year. I know 2020 was a whirlwind, so I thought I would take a moment this week to encapsulate some of the biggest changes that happened this year. That way, you can launch into 2021 like an F-18 from an aircraft carrier. Just remember: where there is a massive change, there is massive opportunity.
The hands-down, number one dream of a lifetime for any F-18 fighter pilot is to fight against Russian-made MiG aircraft. And the only thing better than fighting one is to fight one and win. I have done both. But first, lest you think I am divulging some deeply hidden government secret about an air battle that “never happened” over some country that “doesn’t exist,” I should say that while the battle occurred between two real-life airplanes in real-life air, both of us were using simulated missiles. In other words, the loser did not actually blow up. The only thing at stake that day was bragging rights and a round at the bar. So here is the story...
Let me just get right to the point: It’s TIME. It’s TIME for you to get your message out into the world.It’s TIME for you to rapidly grow your following.It’s TIME for you to get paid what you’re worth. And...it’s TIME for you to do all quickly...as in now. You have a unique message, product, or service that’s going to change the world. And if you don’t share it, no one else will.
I am going to lay out some Predictions that paint the forecast for 2021. Between us, the first part isn’t all that positive. But hang with me ok? Because, for you, the bad news can turn into good news if you know how to position your business for maximum impact. And I promise to show you at least 6 ways to absolutely dominate this next year.
I’ve always been a “show me” kind of guy. If you’re going to talk the talk, you better walk the walk. That’s also why I teach things I know about: speaking, consulting, persuasion, and productivity. Consequently, it’s also why I don’t have a course on how to make your bed. So in light of all of that, I thought it would be refreshing to show you a shortlist of things that DO work. Ready?
Last May I predicted that the next 4 years will continue to bring unexpected changes. That’s proven 100% correct and I expect it to continue. FOR YOU that’s really good news because it means it’s a lot easier to get your market’s attention. That’s why on this week’s Flight Brief I am going to focus on Step #1 of World Domination.
2 Recommendations, 3 Predictions, and 2 Resources. That's it. So who wins? Listen in for my thoughts.
Ok, fine. You talked me into it. I am going to tip-toe into the political arena. I know that in today’s world that can be a ticking time bomb, but don’t worry... I am both Positive and non-Partisan.
One of the biggest questions I get is what software resources I use to run my business. This week’s Flight Brief is the answer to that question. I listed everything here including my go-to resources for websites, live streaming, social media and more. There is also on my Medium page, EdRush.com/Resources, which will be updated from time to time.
I know people keep saying that 2020 is a drag. But I am actually having a blast and I hope you are too. It’s probably because I know your future is bright and so is mine. So, just like the song says, “Don’t worry. Be happy.” With that in mind, let me ask you a question: When would NOW be a great time for you to write your next book? How about NOW?
Whatever side you are on, it was a tough night for America. Right now, the going consensus is that most of America is somewhere on the scale between angry and outraged. At least that’s what CNN and FOX would like you to believe. In reality, my belief is that we’ve actually never been more United. (We are the United States of America after all.) Contrary to popular opinion, I think we’ve actually become more and more United. We still hold to our unalienable truths while also embracing the new ones brought to us by innovation, wisdom, faith, science, and empathy. Sure, we have a LONG way to go and a lot to change, but I am confident we will get there.
If you watch the news, you’re probably aware that the media is now predicting armageddon. It’s all doom and gloom. And while they’re saying goodbye to the world as we know it, you and I are both busy building a better world.* So let me just set the record straight. Things aren’t good. THEY...ARE...GREAT!
