I found a post on FB from someone new and I connected with it right away. It’s from Sam Demma and he shares something that one of his high school teachers shared with him that is very relevant for all of us to connect with. “Small consistent actions” were the three words that his teacher shared with him. The question he asked the class was “what do these people have in common?” He had written many famous people’s names on the board before this. These words are not only meant for famous ...
I came across something that really hit home for me. This post from Gary Hensel (@gary_hensel) reminded me that “Somebody didn’t wake up today, but you did. That’s enough reason to stop complaining, and that’s enough to be thankful for. Never let your troubles blind you to your daily blessings.” Recently I went to a funeral service for a longtime family friend, finding out a former student of mine recently passed away and most recently a neighbor and good friends of ours - lost a family...
This was the post that I spoke about from Friday’s show and it comes from Greg Berge (@gb1121) where he shares his video from an NBA legend, Doug Collins. “Too many kids today are afraid of failure.” Doug Collins reminds us that “Failure isn’t the end. It’s the lesson. It’s how you grow, learn, and get tougher. Every champion has failed; they just refused to stay there.” Now of course it hits differently hearing the clip instead of me just talking about it or reading the quotes.&n...
I was reading my “Daily Reader” from John Maxwell on my Kindle app, and yesterday’s lesson was about making failure your best friend. I love how easy he puts part of this. John mentions “When you are able to learn from any bad experience and thereby turn it into a good experience, you make a major transition in life. For years I’ve taught something that I think gives useful insight on the subject of change: People change when they… Hurt enough that they have to, Learn enough that they w...
I found this from Ball is Psych (@BallisPsych) and it’s a great reminder for all of us in life and I know it’s something I need to keep working on for sure. “You are in control of your life. There are four things you can control every day of your life: attitude, work ethic, how you treat others and how you treat yourself.” — Pat Summitt. Coach Summit was right… We do have some things that we can control and for me, it’s something that I need to focus on. I’m starting to get ...
I listened to John O’Leary’s podcast yesterday, entitled “Breaking Down The Walls” for his Monday Moment episode #825 (click the link HERE to listen to it - really gets us thinking about things.) Please, check out the movie - Soul On Fire. You will walk away fired up for connecting to things a bit differently in your life’s journey. Having a bit more gratitude in life in place of connecting to cynicism, anger, complaining and hate; can take us into a much better direction. F...
I found a new connection to things that can help me have better days, think better, do things better, get more fired up, etc. This thought came from Words of Wise | Mindset Coach (@Wordofwise_) and they shared this: “Stop being afraid of what could go wrong, and start to be excited about what could go right!” Wow!! Did I need this reminder! Little things this past weekend (and truthfully many days) pointed towards the fact of me focusing on things that I hope don’t happen. Things that c...
This is a powerful connection to a former student that recently passed away and it’s something I know I want to keep working on having in my life. The thought comes from Motivational Quotes (@motivational) where this truth was shared: “Be good to people. You will be remembered more for your kindness than any other level of success you could possibly attain.” So many of the posts that I saw from others about this student all had kindness being a part of what they remembered about him. Th...
Found an eye-opening post from Mind Essentials (@Mind_Essentials) where a quote from Denzel Washington was shared that said this: “Always be thankful for the bad things in life. They open your eyes to see the good things you weren’t paying attention to before.” Again, it’s not that I want bad things to happen to me just so I can learn lessons. It’s a reminder to have my eyes open more often than just when bad things happen. It’s how I respond when things get tossed at me and remember gr...
I found a post from Kylie Riordan (@mindfulheal) that connected to my good friend, Dr. Jeff Lip. This quote is one of many that Jeff shared with my students when he spoke to my classes over the years. It’s one he believes in strongly and so do I. The quote is from Pablo Picasso who said, “The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” When we can do this - and we focus on helping others, making a difference for others - that is a very rich life!...
I heard a report from Brad Galli (@bradgalli) who is the sports director at our ABC affiliate here in Detroit (@WXYZDetroit) and he did an interview with the Detroit Lions head coach, Dan Campbell and this answer that Coach Campbell shared with Brad - was amazing. It’s so amazing that I wanted to share the audio with you to help you see how maybe a gritty football coach can help all of us with things going on in our lives. Focusing on the moment a bit more and tying it into our passions...
I see his posts just about every day and every one of them gets me thinking. This one (as I share from him again), I hope gets you thinking too. You see, we all have excuses in our lives as to why we don’t do more, become better, try something new, finish something, etc., and Coach Ray Ostrowski (@CoachRayO3313) reminds us this about those excuses: “Contrary to what many believe and practice, you can NEVER ‘excuse’ your way out of a situation. You can go from failure to success, but nev...
Found some powerful and emotional connections recently that I wanted to share with you. First came a post from Gratitude HQ (@gratefuledu64) where we are reminded to “be the reason why people believe in beautiful souls, kind hearts, and good energy. Never stop being a good person.” This is something I think the world needs now more than ever! This is also connected to @JOLearyInspires and a recent podcast (found HERE) where we are reminded about giving ourselves permission to keep...
I came across a post from UpSkillYourLife (@UpSkillYourLife) and it floored me as to the truth of this statement. “Reading an hour a day is only 4% of your day. But that 4% will put you at the top of your field within 10 years. Find the time.” - Patrick Bet-David. I think it’s more than just reading - although you will be so much better off if you do the reading. But listening to podcasts, watching videos, meeting with people that are a bit ahead of you in the things you wan...
I listened to Ed Mylett’s latest podcast (listen to it HERE) and it really got me thinking, got me fired up and helped me to do some serious reflection about a few things. It’s all about unlocking our best version of ourselves. Lot’s of things here that help us to see how we all have challenges and those connect with the way we think of ourselves. We all have a past and as I’ve said for years that our past is our best mentor. The good and not so good - all of it has lessons for u...
As usual, there seems to be a lot on my mind throughout the day (and night at times). I found this simple reminder - simple but not easy to do. From Dr. Jim Afremow (@goldmedalmind) who posted this: “Just win the moment in front of you.” Again, (a repeated topic) there are so many distractions every day in our lives. More so now than ever before it seems. When we win the moment in front of us - with whatever that might be - good things can happen. We stack more “wins” each day, we...
This actually came across my “news wire” yesterday just about the time where I got off the phone with my buddy Coach Dave Ruekert (@CoachRuekert). It connected with Dave and so many others in my life. The post came from Gary Hensel (@gary_hensel) and the post was this powerful reminder: “Surround Yourself With People Who - Empower you, Believe in you, Support you, Uplift you, Motivate you and Appreciate you.” I am reminded about so many people that help me in so many ways. The list is long. I...
Look what I found - a powerful reminder for myself that I also saw something yesterday that my daughter showed me. This comes from Gratitude HQ (@gratefuledu64) and they shared this: “Let’s be that person, who roots for others. Who tells a stranger they look amazing and encourages others to believe in themselves and their dreams.” What happened to simply being happy for others when they find something that fires them up? Why is it that so many people have to “dump” on ...
I found a very inspirational and thought provoking post from a former student, and I’ve leaned on him plenty of times before. Coach Ray Ostrowski (@CoachRayO3313) is an amazing teacher and football coach, where he goes out of his way to share things just about every day with his students and players, but also the rest of the world too. This long-time educator and coach recognizes the importance of learning all of the time and that’s one of the main driving forces behind this podcast and...
Reading the new book from Mitch Albom called “Twice” (click HERE for the book info.) It gets us thinking about what if we got second chances to do things over? But we would have to live with that new choice. Also, it can be used for Love either. So many thoughts here that this is helping to see things in my life just a bit differently. I understand that what I have in my life, I would not risk changing things in my past to have what I have today. It’s also taught me a little bit, that a...
