Super powerful and inspiring post I found from Motivational Quotes (@motivational) “Never trust your fears; they don’t know your strength.” WOW… did I need to connect with this. My fears have had more of a driver’s seat in my life than I care to admit and in driving “my bus”, when picking up my strengths at the different bus stops - many times they force my strengths to sit in the back of the bus or they never even stopped to pick them up!! It’s time for me to stop my bus (my life...
Found a great post and a great reminder for all of us - coming from Words of Wise | Mindset Coach (@Wordofwise_) and it’s this: “The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.” What a powerful and real reminder for each of us. Life is a constant journey and if we can focus on one moment at a time, with becoming the best we can be in mind - WOW… our life can be amazing!! Thanks for listening. Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, a...
I came across a simple yet powerful post - it’s been around awhile I think too, but it’s still as important as ever for all of us to digest this one. It’s from Psyche Wizard (@PsycheWizard) and the reminder is this: “The life you want is on the other side of discomfort. No shortcuts. No guarantees. Just decisions.” Yep… a short and simple reminder, yet for me, it’s difficult to keep it simple. It all comes down to choices. I need to continue working on mine all the time as there i...
I found a post from one of my favorite character actors from my childhood - Anson Williams, who played Potsie from the awesome show “Happy Days”. This post centered around the tragedy of Rob Reiner and his wife being killed over this past weekend. It also brings to mind the sad and troubling examples of violence & evil with two high profile shootings this past weekend as well. It brings a reminder (sadly every day it seems we are being reminded) that the world needs to do better. Wh...
I came across this post that really got me thinking about overthinking. From Words of Wise | Mindset Coach (@Wordofwise_) comes (at least to me) a new way of “overthinking” things. It was shared: “If you’re going to overthink, at least overthink all the ways it could work out in your favor, the best case scenario, and every version of your life that turns out better than expected.” This is something I need to look at and also start doing in my life. Looking at things with a bit more opt...
I found an awesome post from Jon Gordon (@JonGordon11) and it’s a powerful and much needed reminder that all of us have the ability to be a leader in life. Find his site HERE. In case you have not noticed, the world needs us more than ever! He reminds us: “You are a leader!” You may not have a title. You may not have people report to you. Maybe you never thought of yourself as a leader. But I’m here to tell you that if you live a life of integrity… If you show others what discipli...
I came across a great & simple reminder from Psyche Wizard (@PsycheWizard) and the image is this quote: “Setbacks teach us lessons winning never will.” The image is of someone’s hand and the quote is written in marker. Like a reminder note that we use to write on our hand so we wouldn’t forget something important. We all have setbacks. We always will. It’s part of being human. I look back at reminders of those that are no longer with us and what they taught us. If we can keep lookin...
I took some time last night to watch a special on ESPN - a 30 for 30 documentary on Stuart Scott. Find some more info HERE. It really got me thinking about things. It was emotional, reflective, powerful and to me, it directly connected to a post today from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie). The post reminded us that “small steps do matter”. Mark reminds us to “Live our truth boldly, stand in your honesty, and remember - your happiness begins the moment you stop shrinking who you are to fit who others w...
I found a post that I’ve used before in my classes while teaching along with my players while coaching. This post came from The Winning Difference (@thewinningdiff1) and in the audio I share here in this episode, you can hear the passion, the love, the gratitude from Coach Jim Valvano. “The gift my father gave me every day of my life was he believed in me. My father believed in me, he believed in me when I failed. When I didn’t measure up to my standard or someone else’s standard he’d ...
I came across a short but powerful (and truthful) post from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) that reminds us all about something so meaningful. “If everything around seems dark, look again, you may be the light.” - Rumi. What an amazing and encouraging statement to always take with us wherever we go! I was watching a new show, Boston Blue and in the recent episode, one of the main characters brought up this fact that he needed to simply keep showing up to listen to and be there fo...
I stumbled across a great post to share from Words of Wise | Mindset Coach (@Wordofwise_) and even though it’s coming out later than I wanted to today, it still reminded me of some things that I needed to connect with. “To be successful at anything, you don’t have to be special. You simply have to be what most people are not. Consistent, determined, and willing to work for it.” The key that jumped out to me was that we don’t need anyone’s permission for us to do the things we need to do...
Classic post from Jon Gordon (@JonGordon11) where he shared a “Mindset Monday” thought. “Replace “Have to” with “Get to.” Jon shares with us: “Shift your perspective and realize it’s not about having to do anything. Life is not an obligation. It’s a gift. Focus on gratitude and you’ll find yourself feeling blessed instead of stressed.” This was something that I needed to connect with and remind myself how important my mindset is. Thanks for listening. Please take a few...
I came across a very simple, yet once again - powerful reminder for all of us. This came from The Mindfulness Meditation Institute (@TrainingMindful) where this total truth was shared: “Always find time for the things that make you feel happy!” I am reminded about that for a couple of reasons. One was my podcast from yesterday. Another is the reminder of making time to see and visit with the people that keep your soul smiling along with they help to keep the spark of your soul, on fire ...
I get to see & reflect on these posts every day from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) and he shares his thoughts about the post: “A message for today… People are the greatest part of the journey. No dream is built alone & no success feels complete without the people who walk beside us. Value your relationships — they’re worth more than status or success.” There are things happening every day that help this message and others, to sink in a bit more. When the things that happen affect us i...
I came across this post from Jon Gordon (@JonGordon11) where he shared this thought: “You won’t always feel confident. But you can always be courageous and take action anyway.” This fit in exactly with a podcast from Sam Crowley - you can find this episode HERE. Sam was talking about going through a rough time a year ago when he was stuck and he pushed through so that he could clear things up and pivot into a new direction for his life. So much to pick up from others like Jo...
Once again I found someone speaking to something from the world of sports that has a much bigger impact on what real life is all about. I found this from Coach AJ - Mental Fitness (@coachajkings) where he shared a video clip (find it HERE) of football coach Pete Carroll who said, "The thing about grit is real." "It's about competing, pushing yourself, striving to be your best, and what's really exciting is nobody controls this, but you." This is a very powerful reminder that grit ...
Awesome post from Gary Vaynerchuk (@garyvee) and on his #morningwalktalk that he shared HERE on Twitter / X. He reminds us that we will find what we are looking for. If we are looking for connections, opportunities, learning items, growth, positive news, inspirational things, etc., vs. negative news, anger, hatred, blaming others, etc.; we will find whatever we set out to connect with. Keep an eye on how we spend our time, what choices we make, who we hang out with, what our thoughts ar...
I found an awesome post from Aaron Babicz '93 (@DETROITCCAD) who is the Athletic Director at my high school Novi Detroit Catholic Central. He shared this post after our football team won the State Championship here in Michigan. He titled this “ALWAYS CLIMBING”, and it describes this quote - “How Lucky We Are To Wake Up And Try Again.” First of all there are plenty of people that didn’t get to wake up today. The same will happen tomorrow and every day. What are you always cli...
I found another connection to the importance of us having more “light” in our lives and it comes from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) where he shares these thoughts about the importance of rekindling the light for others. “Such a message reminds me of Goodier’s work entitled “Who Rekindles Your Light?” It calls to mind how we are blessed by the light of others though their love, care & concern. We too must reciprocate or pay it forward by serving to be the light for others!” We all ne...
Simple and powerful post from Gary Hensel (@gary_hensel) where he shared this: “The light you hold is brighter than any darkness. When in darkness be the light.” There are many times that there seems to be more darkness than ever and not just because we are heading into winter. There are issues and events going on around us and around the world where we need more light to shine brightly. There are many ways to do it and they do not have to be huge events. They can be small events that maybe o...
