Everyone at some point has left a light on in their car and come out the next morning to a car that should be ready to roll, and the battery is dead. You have to jump start it. We do this with ourselves a lot by going to be with some lights left on that keep us from quality sleep, and we wake up need a jump start. A blaring alarm, maybe our spouse has to push out of bed, we need coffee immediately, etc… Even with the jump start, you’re generally lagging the whole day. There are so many things that go into this and I’m going to hit a big one, with on add on. For disclosure, I sent this message to some of my kids the other day, as it was on my mind.

We are driven to connect. And be connected to. There has never been more communication available and coming at us than today. And yet we have more isolation and loneliness than ever. It’s similar to food. In America we are massively overfed. We are bigger and heavier than ever. And yet we are chronically undernourished. We eat but don’t nourish. Likewise, we communicate, but we don’t connect. What is the difference? And what can we do?

Here is a business story, that is really a humanitarian story, but overall is an incredible story of drive I believe you’ll be inspired and equipped by. The story would make a great movie, and since my guest actually roomed with Matt Damon in college, it just might become one. James Rhee’s parents migrated to America from Korea. James was driven to excel and please his parents, so he got into Harvard. But he really wanted to teach, so he then taught high school for a couple years. Some of his most rewarding years he says. But then he went back to Harvard and graduated from law school. But he realized he didn’t want to be a lawyer so he became an investment banker. He did well, but realized he didn’t want to do that either. So he worked in private equity. He did well. Very well. He appreciated helping businesses, but didn’t like how disconnected he was from everything. So he quit and didn’t know what to do. Then he ends up in an unlikely place - as CEO of Ashley Stewart, a fashion retailer that served plus-size, predominantly middle- and lower-income Black women. And the company was at its end. The death knell had sounded. James came in for what was supposed to be six months because he felt an obligation to help. He ended up there for seven years with a miracle turnaround story that he’s now described in a book called Red Helicopter: Lead Change With Kindness. You'll hear a very personal story of James' drive, from healthy to unhealthy. You'll hear about how Ashley Stewart went from death to stardom because it became a place and brand of belonging, not fashion. You'll hear how success came, not from communication, but connection. And most of all you'll hear how goodwill is the bridge to not only wild success, but abiding joy. Today James Rhee teaches at Howard University, MIT Sloan School of Management, and Duke Law School. His TED Talk and Dare to Lead interview with Brené Brown have reached millions. It was an honor to spend a couple hours with him and as you’ll hear at the end of the show we’re planning a t-shirt campaign together to advocate for the “analog life!” Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!

In our quest for health and wellness and looking at the food we eat, how we exercise and sleep and addressing our mental health, we often miss two primary areas of consumption; what we are breathing and drinking. I just want to trust that overall what I breathe and drink is ok and my body can handle it. It can, but it’s not optimal. My body can exist on cheetos and coke as well, but it won’t be optimal. I want my physical body at it’s best to support my overall drive. To dig into these subjects I brought in an expert, Peter Spiegel. Peter worked on an organic farm. He taught meditation. He learned Chinese medicine and taught it to doctors in London. He started and sold a natural foods company. From all this he ultimately devoted himself to clean air and water and I wanted to know why. You’re about to get a master class in the air we breathe and the water we drink, in all forms, and why you’ll best serve your drive to clean them both. We spend most of our time talking about air and water, but you’ll also hear us mention his products to address both. Peter founded a company called Ideal Living which provides the AirDoctor for cleaning your air and AquaTru which cleans your water. If you’re interested you can head to idealliving.com/DRIVE to receive up to 40% off air purifiers and 20% off water purifiers!

For some reason unknown to me, narcissism is the new label slapped on anyone we feel is being selfish. And yes, I’ve had it attributed to me. And I feel it about others as well. In an article from the Center for Neurocognitive Excellence, they way a simple definition of narcissism would be an over-preoccupation with ourselves or being overly desirous of the praise or admiration of others to the extent that it negatively impacts our relationships. I’ve not met anyone who doesn’t display these tendencies from time to time. But if we really want the praise or admiration of others, but want to positively impact ourselves most, and positively impact others, we’d choose kindness. It proves to be the ultimate weapon. Drive with me a moment to explain how you can serve yourself best, from getting praise to making more money to finding more romance, by being kind.

We are born into this world and we just take it in. It’s all we can do. We’re brought up and told what to do. Sent to school to learn the basics and pass tests, then on into the world to maybe get more schooling then ultimately get a job and pay the bills. The average person pursues little learning and growth as they just churn through life. Now, that’s not you or you wouldn’t be here listening. And by being here I know you have engaged with the first level of thinking. But what about level two? And further…level three? You don’t achieve them naturally. And you don’t arrive at them and you’re done. It’s a daily, intentional effort. Drive with me and let’s get them in front of us and working for us.  Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!

At the beginning of my book, What Drives You, I define drive as a strong energy and determination to achieve a goal or satisfy a need. To be rich is to be plentiful and abundant. You could say that sums up our drive. We want to be plentiful and abundant in many things. I’ve never met anyone who says they want less money. I’ve never met anyone who says they want less personal growth, or wellness, or less good relationships. Or less purpose or time or less great adventures or experiences. But all of us have areas where we don’t feel as plentiful and abundant as we desire. Think about it, are you ok if in one year, nothing in your life changes? Nothing grows and improves? You’re good as is. For the next year. Or three years. I don’t think you’d be listening to this show if that was the case. Yes, let’s be grateful and content with today and all we have! Let’s be at peace. But part of my purpose is to grow, so absolutely, I have areas where I want to increase my riches. Thus I bring you, Robin Sharma. Every month over 30 million people follow Robin’s teachings. He has multiple #1 global bestsellers such as “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.” It was his bestseller “The 5AM Club” that brought him onto my show four years ago. Robin’s new book is THE WEALTH MONEY CAN’T BUY: The 8 Hidden Habits to Live Your Richest Life. Robin works with a lot of billionaires and celebrities who have achieved the greatest levels of monetary wealth and status. And, who are not happy. Yet if you’re living paycheck to paycheck you may happily trade places with them. But it’s an interesting question. Would you? Would you take a million or a billion dollars if you had to trade it for riches in other areas? What good or fun would it be? But there are just as many people, if not more, who have achieved great success monetarily, because they pursued success and riches elsewhere. Who do you want to be? Find his new book THE WEALTH MONEY CAN’T BUY: The 8 Hidden Habits to Live Your Richest Life. Now listen in for some simple and profound insight from The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.

When I’m interviewed on other people’s shows about drive, often the first topic they’ll bring up is my claim that everyone has drive. Further, that everyone has just as much drive in them as anyone else. When I explain it, everyone agrees and accepts this new revelation. However, in this space of self-improvement, I bristle at the concept of “no fear” and “no limits” and “no excuses.” This is the perception I embraced as a kid and took into my life. It was great as a pro cyclist where you push yourself past your limits. But overall in life, to disregard the truth of our weaknesses and limitations is foolish. I know. I have been a fool so many times. In my recent show with Harvard and MIT professor Jeff Karp, his story starts with tremendous difficulties as a kid in school. They wanted to hold him back in 2nd grade. His grades were terrible. He was labeled a troublemaker. He was embarrassed by teachers in front of his class. What I appreciate is he didn’t just justify all his issues. He accepted them and said, “Yes, I really have trouble with my attention and how my brain does and doesn’t work.” And he didn’t justify it with his ultimate success as an Ivy League professor. He just took it all scientifically and spiritually and said, “Hey, here are some tools I figured out that can help you, like they helped me.” We do have personal weaknesses. We do have limits. We do have things we will always struggle with, and they do matter. Drive with me a moment and let’s talk about how we can progress and succeed anyway. With growth, grit, and grace.  Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!

Think about all the “shoulds” in your life. All the things that come to mind that you should do, and that feeling of, “ugh”. And the feeling of, “I know I should, but…” and there is a list of things to do you don’t even have conceptualized. It just feels like a lot. And it can keep us stuck there. Idling in park and not driving…anywhere. Driven, but stuck. This happened to me the other day and I tried something that worked. Then low and behold the very next day the concept was scientifically defined for me by Harvard and MIT professor Jeff Karp as we talked about the message in his new book, LIT: Life Ignition Tools: Use Nature's Playbook to Energize Your Brain, Spark Ideas, and Ignite Action. The concept is called “lowering activation.” Drive with me a moment and I’ll unpack it so you can use it too.

Take every self-help resource. Every therapy session. Every spiritual resource. From them all we are striving to program, or reprogram, our brains. In order to get us driving further and faster with less effort. Less anxiety. Less complexity. Less limits. Saying life is a mind game can be incredibly depressing, or empowering. My goal in this short message is to empower you. And me. I need this reminder every day. We all live in our own, personal matrix. We really do. Understanding, embracing, and accepting this can be life altering. My inspiration is Harvard and MIT professor Jeff Karp who I just had on the show. His new book, LIT: Life Ignition Tools: Use Nature's Playbook to Energize Your Brain, Spark Ideas, and Ignite Action, is a great showcase in how life is a mind game and how we can intentionally get ourselves LIT for success.

Most of us think we are driving through our lives with automatic shifting, like almost all cars nowadays. But in truth, our life is a stick shift and we must manually shift gears. And most of us habitually live in first to third gear. We go about living in our minds with a lot of limitations, blind spots, and ignorance. So I bring you, Jeff Karp. Jeff started life with some big struggles. Amidst some undiagnosed issues, he did so poorly in school they wanted to hold him back in second grade. Teachers literally put blinders on him and embarrassed him in front of class for not paying attention. He was labeled a troublemaker. But at age eight a teacher asked him about how he was thinking, and it opened up such a new world for Jeff that he cites it as his first spiritual experience. He went on to adjust how he learned and today is a member of the National Academy of Inventors. He is a Professor at Harvard Medical School and MIT and a Distinguished Chair at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Dr. Karp has dedicated his research laboratory to bioinspired medical problem solving, which he explains at the top of the show as studying phenomena in nature and replicating them through science. His lab’s technologies include a nasal spray to neutralize pathogens, a tissue glue that can seal holes inside a beating heart, targeted therapy for osteoarthritis and inflammatory bowel disease, needles that automatically stop when they reach their target, and more. His new book however is focused on you and your brain and the vast, untapped potential he says you can ignite with some tools. And you can upshift in your life. Drive further and faster with less effort. The book is called LIT, which stands for Life Ignition Tools: Use Nature’s Playbook to Energize Your Brain, Spark Ideas, and Ignite Action. Some would call it brain hacks but it’s not. It’s just brain ability we generally are unaware of. So join me in a conversation to learn more about how you can utilize some tools to get your brain…LIT. You can learn more at Dr. Karp's website here: www.jeffkarp.com.

Our bodies drive everything we do, so in an effort to get them in the best shape possible, in this episode we are talking about meat. Eating meat or not is one issue, but if you choose to, are they all equal? Absolutely not. Again, we’re talking about food, the items we ingest every day that are intended to build, repair, heal, and help us flourish. So if the next meal has meat, does it contain the natural ingredients it was intended to? Ingredients that give us life? Or is it made up of synthetic hormones, antibiotics, waste products, and an overall soup of refuse and pharmaceuticals? It matters, hugely. The type of meat to a degree, but moreso, the lifestyle of the animal it came from. Medical doctor and Function Medicine expert Randy James and I walk through meat to help you understand what will best support your drive.  Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!

I met with a group of guys this morning to talk about being present. It's actually a group of Colorado guys from Denver and Colorado Springs who adventure together. We mountain bike, run, hike, raft, paddle board, camp, ski and basically revel in the outdoors. But we also journey to go deep. The guy who founded the group talks about Outer Terrain and Inner Terrain. The concept of "being present" is in vogue today, but I find two problems present - One, it doesn't sell well, being present doesn't sound valuable and fun at face value, and two, most people think it just means not daydreaming or being on your phone and paying attention to the environment around you. So what is valuable about being present and is it more than just paying attention to your surroundings? Drive with me a moment...

We are generally driven to do the right thing in our lives. We practice personal hygiene, we get the kids off to school, we work and pay the bills, we pay our taxes and we attend social functions and are generally nice and serving to people. But why is it so hard to do the right things for our health and wellness? I just had a long conversation with Dr Tom O’Bryan in the previous episode where he basically showcased that today’s chronic illness and disease is primarily of our own doing. Primarily, not all. I’d rather hear this news than hear it’s all being done to me. If my ill health is mostly my own doing, then I have control over getting healthier, which is great! But the question I pose today is, why is it so hard? Why does our drive seem so hard when it comes to being well? Let me get the cards on the table for you to try and make it more understandable and easier to grasp, and therefore, change.

7 Lifestyle Adjustments To Reduce Your Chance Of Disease By 95%. That seems an almost preposterous claim. I’ve studied health and wellness for three decades and been heavily involved in Functional Medicine for 15 years. And the message in this show speaks truth. My guest is Dr. Tom O’Bryan, a world-renowned Functional Medicine educator I’ve known of for years and finally connected with. He is the author of You Can Fix Your Brain and The Autoimmune Fix and known for his research on gluten. He now has a profound, 7-part docuseries for you, called the Inflammation Equation, where he unveils the underlying mechanisms in the development of 14 of the top 15 causes of death in our world today. You’ll learn from Tom and the world’s top medical experts about the simple steps you can take to stop dis-ease from becoming disease. This conversation is a candid overview of just what inflammation is. Think of an injury you incur and you have swelling. That's the body doing what it's supposed to do. Yet today with the massive and growing amount of toxins in our environment and on the end of our fork, our body is always in a mild to acute state of inflammation and it will go on till it grows, encounters a weak spot in your system, and finally manifests as a disease. Our culture is fighting valiantly to find cures for diseases while the world's best informed realize we are all feeding the disease. And you can't cure a problem that we are actively feeding. Listen in to this show to find real answers and hope for your best chances to ward off the disease culture that is being accepted as the norm. It doesn't need to be your norm. Go to inflammationequation.com for the docuseries. And next up, Tom O'Bryan and a deep dive into inflammation and how to mitigate it in your body.

Your body is the vehicle for all your drive, so we seek to strengthen it for you in this episode. We live in a culture where many people don’t eat many vegetables, and if they do, they gravitate towards the least beneficial. Food is your best medicine, so here is your guide to getting the most out of your veggies. And the goal? Make veggies half or more of every meal. Not the side. Meat and grains and other are your side. But to vegetables, not all are created equal. In a recent episode, Dr James quipped about his kids going for the most sugar-full veggies like carrots and snap peas and it sparked a listener to ask which veggies were in fact, “better”. We intended to discuss the “better” foods in five categories but found just getting through veggies was a complete episode. To give you some Cliff’s Notes, his “top tier” picks for the most nutrient dense veggies were broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, spinach, cabbage (especially purple) and kale. Tier two? Peas, corn, carrots and okra. Why? You’ll serve yourself well to understand, so in this episode Dr Randy James and I break it down. Quick call out to my new friend, Kathy. She’s been a listener for years, loves these health focused shows I do with Dr James, and this week surprised me by showing up at his practice, True Life Medicine, here in Colorado. She flew in to become a patient.. I came out to see someone in the foyer and she recognized my voice, not realizing my studio is in his office building. We had a great visit. You can check out what Randy can offer you at truelifemedicine.com. Got any questions? Hit me up, kevin@kevinmiller.co. OK, next up, Randy and I give you the lowdown on the best veggies.

It will surprise you for me to say, it depends. We all have something we want and the clarity of what we want and why is what makes up our drive. The cultural and high achiever perspective is to but super disciplined, give everything up for the sake of the end goal, delay all gratification for the sake of the prize and never, ever, ever quit! Well, we all know of people who did this and never found any joy.

We've been talking about belonging and how true belonging is not merely "fitting in." Thanks to Ritu Bhasin, author of We've Got This, for bringing us to the concept. For all of you who are people pleasers...who don't like conflict, the idea of being authentic can feel scary and feel like to be natural we've got to offend people. I just can't embrace this but I'm learning how to better navigate being authentic, while not being confrontational. Walk with me a minute and I think I can bring you some understanding and comfort that will let you be you, while also being more true to yourself and at peace with others. Here are six steps that will help. Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!

In my previous episode with Ritu Bhasin, author of We Got This, we dove deep into the concept of belonging and she wisely stated we must first begin by belonging to ourselves. Few of us were ever taught anything about our relationship with ourselves and to many, like me, the very concept is obtuse and awkward. It's taken me a long time to recognize that some people are just...good with themselves. They are comfortable in their own skin. And I want that. I want peace. I'm tired of the anxiety of never measuring up to myself. And you can’t measure up when you think of yourself as merely a tool to get things done. Which many of you do as well. Let’s get the issue on the table so we can course correct. Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!

i enjoyed the show. It was very interesting. I agree that you have to get over your pain to be comfortable to talk and share with people.I am at a point of my lige where the pain I went through is not as bad as it once was. i had back then a difgicult time voming to terms with what I endured. i wrote my story in my "Solace Encounters" book currently being edited with Xulon Press. Having written the stories over and over again I was able to let go of the fears and the traumas I went through and I feel like I am ready to sgare my story through talking about it on instagram ...solace_encounters46.

Quality of podcast slipping a smidge with blank gaps and repeated sections in a number of episodes. Love the podcast content.

The podcasts are great. Deal with the commercial for his web site at the end. He is allowed to make a living. And these podcasts are free. They cost nothing. Cliff - THESE ARE FREE.

I think Mr. Ziglar's podcast are awesome! Keep them coming. From what I've heard on them he is providing motivation and inspiration on being a better person and having a better life. If he wants to promote his website at the end of the podcasts then so be it! It is nice to know where you can go to find more of his great works! Cliff G. you may want to create a positive self-talk card for yourself and find the good in things opposed to being so negative!
