Comfortably Uncomfortable

This is an important concept to explore. The imagination is something that we all use but we can tweak it to have a better life. You might want it to be in a better relationship, better health, more wealth, better grades in school, or just feeling more confident. Whatever it is that you truly want, it can be yours using the marvelous power of your imagination.

In this episode I tell a story that happened in the late 1990's when I was working at a trade show company in marketing. Although the story itself is not pivotal or life-changing, it is a fun memory for me. This episode does have a few lessons that I learned along the way about being uncomfortable and exploring an unknown place alone. And along the way, I had a little fun searching the "Big Easy" for a man that I admire and, perhaps, had a bit of a crush on. It certainly made the trip more fun. And I learned more than I ever thought I could know about New Orleans. Just take a stroll down Bourbon Street...it's all good! Because of the explicit nature of the "Closer" video, I won't link it here. Please go to https://www.youtube.com to search for and watch the video.

“Personality, that magnetic and mysterious something that is easy to recognize but difficult to define, is not so much something that is acquired from without, as it is something that is “released” from within.” - Maxwell Maltz, Psycho-Cybernetics On this episode I explore the inner traits, likes, and the true YOU that makes up your personality. This exercise that I have for you will give you clarity and will hone in on what you want the world to see about you. This is so important because it makes up the activities and physical things that represent who you are and how you are seen to the outside world with the things you are doing. And it is really wonderful that right now you can start meeting the people that can and will give you the dreams and desires you want out of life because they will be tuned in and excited to meet you, too. You will help them and they will help you whether it be in business, friendship, meeting a partner or anything else! You will be happy and you will bring happiness to them. I use the Jeep Wrangler culture quite a bit in this episode to illustrate my passion I have and the things I am now involved in to meet the people that have the same personality as I do. *This episode, as with all my episodes, is my opinion and the content is based on 40+ years of hard-core learning and experience.
