In today's episode, we dove deep into the essence of organizational purpose and its profound impact on our leadership styles and corporate culture. As a guiding force in Third Power Performance, I've committed myself to ensure our pursuits are more than just profit-driven—they're purposeful. Delving into how my role as a leader intertwines with the core mission of balancing professional success and family life, I shared insights and frameworks that can help any leader inspire and motivate their team.

We explored not only defining personal and organizational purpose but also how to authentically integrate this understanding into daily business operations.

Today I'm diving into the fascinating world of AI and email, and trust me, it's a journey worth joining. Having swung between chuckles and slight annoyance at receiving AI-generated emails that scream automation, I've learned a trick or two on making AI work for us, not against us.

Financial Literacy: What Does Your Adult Report Card Say About You? - [TPL] S2E204

today we dove deep into the world of financial literacy—a topic I'm incredibly passionate about and a foundational piece of my Material Prosperity Triad. Financial education isn't just a nice-to-have; it's essential for leading a successful and independent life. In today’s episode, I unpacked why keeping a close eye on your financial health is crucial and likened our financial statements to an adult report card. Just as kids get grades to track their school performance, adults need to regularly review their financial performance to ensure they're on the right track. Let’s break down what we covered: Understanding Financial Ratios: Know where you stand with key financial ratios like debt-to-income and savings-to-gross income. These are your benchmarks for financial health. Building Assets: I discussed how creating assets, rather than accumulating liabilities, is key to making your money work for you. Inspired by principles from 'Rich Dad Poor Dad,' I explained the importance of generating passive income through investments like stocks, real estate, or even side businesses. Financial Mindset: Finally, we explored the mindset around money. It’s essential to develop a healthy relationship with money and to view it as a tool, not a measure of worth. If you’re keen on joining a conversation that goes beyond the basics to help you craft a Third Power Life, consider joining our upcoming Round Table program. It’s more than just financial advice—it’s about building a community and enhancing every aspect of your life. Key Takeaways: - Financial literacy is fundamental to independence and success. - Treat your financial statement as your adult report card—check it regularly! - Focus on creating assets that provide passive income. - Assess and adjust your financial mindset for a healthier relationship with money.

Self-Improvement Eclipse: Navigating Life's Shadows - [TPL] S2E203

In our latest episode, we've ventured into the cosmic phenomenon of an eclipse to draw out some illuminating lessons on self-improvement and personal growth. As I looked up into the sky, witnessing the moon's shadow dance across the sun, it struck me—aren't we all, in our quests for betterment, occasionally overshadowed by the very goals we chase? Yet, just as the eclipse promises, there's always light on the other side. I shared how this celestial event mirrors our own moments of challenge and achievement, offering a fresh perspective on the ebb and flow of life's trials and triumphs. Diving deeper, I discussed how we, much like the moon, sometimes find ourselves obscuring our own light, only to rediscover it with renewed vigor and clarity. It's a journey filled with moments of darkness and overwhelming brilliance, each teaching us the value of patience, perseverance, and the importance of celebrating our wins, no matter how fleeting they may feel. This episode is more than just a conversation; it's an invitation to explore the shadows and lights of your own life, recognizing the beauty and growth in each phase of your personal eclipse. Takeaways: - Life's challenges, just like an eclipse, are temporary. Embrace the darkness, knowing the light will return. - Success and achievements are moments of totality where we shine our brightest, reminding us to savor these instants while they last. - The importance of seeking assistance or simply taking a moment to rest in the darker times, ensuring we're ready when the light begins to shine again. - Like the unpredictable yet awe-inspiring nature of an eclipse, our journeys too are filled with unexpected moments of joy and learning.

How to Push Past Resistance and Finally Finish the Project - [TPL] S2E201

Today, I want to talk to you about the final push in finishing projects, something I'm sure you're all too familiar with. I've been there, struggling with the Round Table program, teetering on the edge of launch but held back by unforeseen challenges. It reminded me of something my mentor once said, "The last 10% of any project takes 90% of the time." This episode is all about navigating through that frustrating final stretch, transforming resistance into a launchpad for success. My journey was cluttered with self-doubt and procrastination until I tackled it with a detailed project plan and a shift in mindset. I discovered, as I hope you will, that imperfect action trumps stagnation every time. For successful professionals with families, time is a treasure chest that's always depleting. I know that finishing projects, especially the ones fueled by passion rather than obligation, often takes a backseat in our hectic lives. But here, I've distilled the essence of pushing past that resistance—illustrated through my struggle and breakthrough with the Round Table program. It's a testament to the power of agile methodologies, the importance of reframing self-narratives, and the sheer force of will required to cross the finish line. Let's redefine what our 'final 10%' looks like, together. Takeaways: The Law of the Final 10%: Understanding that the ending phase of any project is disproportionately time-consuming can prepare us for the uphill battle. Power of Planning: A detailed project plan can transform an overwhelming task into manageable steps, clarifying the path to completion. Reframing the Narrative: Changing the stories we tell ourselves about our abilities can significantly impact our productivity and overall success. Imperfect Action: Embracing imperfection in initial execution can be the difference between stagnation and progression. Seeking Support: Leveraging your support system for accountability and motivation can help maintain momentum in challenging times. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thirdpowerlife/support

The Power of NO: Transforming Your Life One Boundary at a Time - [TPL] S2E199

For a long time I have understood the importance of saying "NO". I learned to embrace this word. It wasn't easy, I'll tell you that. Understanding the many boundaries needed to safeguard my time and energy was a game-changer. Imagine, every time we say yes to one thing, we're saying no to a multitude of others. That's a lot of no's, right? And yet, embarking on this journey to assert 'No' more confidently has begun to clear the clutter, streamline my focus, and ironically, opened up more doors to what truly aligns with my purpose. Let's dive together into transforming our busy 'Yes' lifestyle into a purpose-driven 'No' pathway! Taking the advice of a mentor, I started scrutinizing my commitments through the lens of my purpose. Think of those moments where 'maybe' is just a softer 'no', and yet we hesitate. Whether it was opting out of that seductive fast food for lunch or ending the binge-watching cycles, aligning my actions with my aspirations meant embracing 'No'. And it doesn't stop there. It's about knowing our capacity, recognizing our true worth, and practicing the manifestation of 'No' to shape a life of authenticity and third-power living.

Who is around your table? - [TPL] S2E196

In this episode of Third Power Life I am asking "Who is around your table,?" It is one of my all-time favorite topics – the incredible impact our personal and professional circles have on our lives. You've probably heard me say it before, but Jim Rohn's three pivotal questions always get me thinking: Who am I around? What are they doing to me? And is that okay? These questions aren't just food for thought; they're the main course in our journey toward fulfillment and success. Now, let's talk diversity. It's not just a buzzword; it's the secret sauce to a thriving circle. Remember, no cloning allowed at this round table! We're talking diverse backgrounds, opinions, and experiences, all marching towards a common purpose. And speaking of purpose, I'm super excited about the Round Table program I'm working on. It's like a fantasy league, but for personal and professional growth, and you're all invited to join the founding members. But here's the kicker – it's not just about who's at your table; it's also about what you bring to it. Are you a giver, a taker, or the best of both worlds? It's all about that give and take, folks. And let's not forget about the personal side of things. Having buddies to chat about everything from technology to family life over a cold one can be a game-changer for life balance. So, who are the knights at your round table? Are they lifting you up, challenging you, and keeping you accountable? That's what we're exploring in this episode. And remember, this isn't just about me talking at you; it's about us learning and growing together. So, grab your seat at the table, and let's dive into this journey of discovery. Key Takeaways: - Diversity is Key: Surround yourself with a mix of backgrounds and perspectives to enrich your personal and professional growth. - Purpose-Driven Connections: Ensure your circle shares a common goal or purpose that aligns with your own. - Reciprocity Matters: Strive for a balance of giving and taking within your relationships to build a supportive network. - Personal Accountability: Regular check-ins with your circle can help maintain your focus and life balance. - Evaluate Your Circle: Regularly assess who's at your table and their impact on your journey towards success.

Nurturing Relationships Amidst Busy Schedules - [TPL] S2E193

You know, as I sat down with a steaming cup of coffee this fine morning, I got to thinking - about us. About our relationships. Michael J. Fox once said, "Family is not AN important thing. It's EVERYTHING," and man if that doesn't hit home. So, in today's podcast episode, I dive deep into the art of nurturing our crucial bonds amidst the flurry of our 9-to-5's. It's all about legacy, my friends, about creating that sanctuary for our families, and not letting the grind tear us away from the very reason we're grinding in the first place. We're all guilty of it, right? Too busy earning money to remember the "why" behind it all. But I'm here to share some real talk on how we can flip the script. I've lived it—the long hours, the grinding fatigue, the relationships slipping through my fingers. And I've turned it around. Where there's a will (and a little ingenuity), there's always a way. Let me walk you through my journey and the nuggets of wisdom I've gathered along the way. It's time to give our relationships the TLC they deserve because if we're rocking it at work but our home life is on the rocks, then friends, we've missed the mark. So, let's roll up our sleeves and get to it. #FamilyOverEverything #WorkLifeBalance Takeaways: - Family is everything: Prioritize your relationships over work - they are your legacy. - Quality over quantity: It's about making the moments count, not counting the moments. - Make it routine: Simple gestures and daily rituals show you care, like the morning coffee ritual with my wife. - Dinner time is bonding time: No matter how hard, get everyone to the dinner table - it's worth it. - Open communication: Share your life and listen to your loved ones; sometimes, they don't need a solution, just an ear. - Self-care is key: Taking care of yourself is crucial to being there for others and being the best partner and parent possible.

Personal Purpose Live: Navigating Life with Your Ultimate North Star - [TPL] S2E192

Good morning, my fellow trailblazers and life navigators! Today, we're diving deep into the essence of what fuels our journey—our personal purpose. It's not just a buzzword for me; it's the very foundation of my TEDx talk and an experience that transformed my life. Picture this: a lighthouse in the vast expanse of life, guiding us through the fog of daily routines and existential quandaries. This lighthouse is our personal purpose, not just a beacon but a robust decision-making tool that helps us chart our course through life's tumultuous seas. Finding our purpose is akin to uncovering a treasure map to our ultimate success, transcending the mundane cycle of work, earn, and repeat. It's about asking the deeper questions—why the wealth, why the accolades? What legacy do we wish to leave behind? I've journeyed through this process, from lacking direction to helping others define their success across all facets of life. It's not just about financial or physical goals but encompassing spiritual, familial, and philanthropic aspirations. Let's ignite that fire within, refuse to drift aimlessly, and command our destiny with purpose-driven clarity. Because remember, if it's not a resounding "hell yes," then it's a no. Live life to the third power, not in mediocrity. Join me in this quest to not just exist, but to truly live with intention and leave a mark on this world that echoes through eternity. #PersonalGrowth #LifeGoals #Motivation #SuccessMindset #PurposeDrivenLife #UltimateSuccess #LifeThirdPower #CommandYourLife Craving a little more direction on your path to greatness?

[TPL] S2E190 - What I'm Reading: Books That Shape the Third Power Life

I'm taking you on a little adventure through my personal library, which is as varied as my taste in coffee (and let me tell you, that's pretty diverse). From the epic fantasy landscapes in the "Throne of Glass" series that have me on the edge of my seat, to the brain-boosting insights of Tony Robbins' "Moneymaster the Game," I'm all over the map – literally and literarily! I've got a soft spot for the smell of a good book, the kind that invites you into its world with just a whiff of its pages. And yes, I'm talking about those real, physical books, the kind you can hug (and believe me, I do). But let's not forget the digital companions that make carrying a library around as easy as pie – handy, but they sadly lack that new book scent. Now, here's where it gets interesting: I want to know what's on your shelf. What gems have you uncovered that you think I should dive into? This isn't just me talking books at you; it's a two-way street. Let's swap titles like we're trading cards – I'm game if you are! So, as we navigate the pages of our favorite reads, remember, this is more than just a hobby; it's a way to live your life to the Third Power. Books are our mentors, our escape, and sometimes, our best friends. Here's to the stories that shape us, the adventures that await, and the endless conversations about that one character we all love to hate. Cheers to our shared journey in the vast universe of books! Takeaways: - Reading is an important aspect of personal growth and self-mastery. - Engaging with a variety of genres, both fiction and nonfiction, can broaden one's perspective. - Podcasts and audiobooks are convenient alternatives for consuming content on the go. - Engaging in a dialogue with others about reading recommendations can lead to discovering new books and authors.

[TPL] S2E189 - Breaking the Echo Chamber: Cultivating a Mindset of Growth and Positivity

Summary: Just got back from a late-night Magic the Gathering session with my boys, and wow, what an adventure it was! Not every game set hits the mark, and this murder mystery-themed one definitely had us wanting more. It sparked an interesting conversation on the way back, munching on snacks and sharing a collective "meh" about the experience. It got me thinking about the echo chambers we inadvertently create, not just in card games but in life. How often do we find ourselves echoing the same sentiments, reinforcing our own beliefs without even realizing it? But here's a twist - what if we could transform these echo chambers into something powerful? Imagine a chamber reverberating with success, positivity, and change. Join me in this episode as we explore breaking the cycle of repetition and tuning into a frequency of growth and positivity. It's time to amplify the good vibes and turn our echo chambers into engines of inspiration! Takeaways: Not every experience will meet our expectations, but there's always a lesson to be learned. The conversations we have can often become echo chambers, reinforcing our existing beliefs. It's essential to be mindful of the echo chambers we're part of and consciously choose positivity. Transforming our echo chambers can lead to a more fulfilling and successful life.
