It's easy to get caught up in the chaos of life, but sometimes taking a break is exactly what we need to appreciate the journey we're on truly. In this special relaunch episode, we'll dive into the power of slowing down and gaining perspective. Host Justin Keller shares his experience taking an almost two-year break from the podcast. He talks about how embracing life's challenges can lead to personal growth, improved mental health, self-improvement, direction, and a more meaningful way of living.

We're going to be in trouble if we are always waiting until we feel motivated, or the time is right, to take action toward our goals and ideas. In this episode, I talk about one question that I was taught to ask to help me take immediate action toward any goal or idea. This one question is so simple, yet it packs the power to move you closer toward what it is that you want to pursue.Previous episode on motivation: https://fight-for-brilliance-with-justin-keller.simplecast.com/episodes/understanding-and-improving-motivationJoin the Idea to Impact Mentorship Waitlist: www.yourideamentor.com Connect with Justin: instagram.com/kellerthinks | medium.com/@kellerthinks | Circlefifty.com | twitter.com/kellerthinks | TikTok.com/@kellerthinks | fb.com/kellerthinks | text "BRILLIANT" to 33777 to sign up for the Fight For Brilliance email 

We live in a culture where we are able to have what we want, when we want it. If we're not careful, we approach our dreams and ideas with that same "right now" mindset, and if we can't have it the way that we want it right now, we end up waiting for the perfect time and doing nothing with it at all. In this episode, I discuss the one major mindset that keeps most of us from ever stepping toward our dreams and ideas, and I talk about how to step toward what you desire while practicing patience.If you have an idea that you want help bringing to life, text the word "IDEA" to 844-439-1484 or visit YourIdeaMentor.com Connect with Justin: Instagram.com/kellerthinks | Circlefifty.com | medium.com/@kellerthinks | fb.com/kellerthinks| twitter.com/kellerthinks | TikTok.com/@kellerthinks

How you start taking action toward your ideas is absolutely critical. In this episode, I share the 3 things secrets to getting your ideas started right. These 3 things are the foundation for helping you create belief in, improve upon, and keep fighting for the ideas you have. If you have an idea that you want help bringing to life, text the word "IDEA" to 844-439-1484Connect with Justin: Instagram.com/kellerthinks | Circlefifty.com | medium.com/@kellerthinks | fb.com/kellerthinks| twitter.com/kellerthinks | TikTok.com/@kellerthinks

Everyone of us do things without wondering why. We are provided manuals, we follow instructions, and we often live without questioning things, or seeing if there's a better way. In this episode, I share an example of how default mode impacts our lives. I also answer a question that came in from a listener and discuss how you can develop a mindset that isn't afraid to fail.Connect with Justin: Instagram.com/kellerthinks | Circlefifty.com | medium.com/@kellerthinks | fb.com/kellerthinks| twitter.com/kellerthinks | TikTok.com/@kellerthinks

Even though it might sound pessimistic to say, plan for failure, it's not. In fact, in the proper context, planning for failure is what allows you to be prepared, and it protects your life. In this episode, I share a thought from the author James Clear, and we look at how even big brands like Apple use this approach to help them fight for brilliance and success.Connect with Justin: Instagram.com/kellerthinks | Circlefifty.com | medium.com/@kellerthinks | fb.com/kellerthinks| twitter.com/kellerthinks | TikTok.com/@kellerthinks

In this episode, I share some of my recent experiences, reflections and actions in my life. I was heading into a special time with my son at the same time I was turning 41 and the podcast was hitting 100 episodes.

In 2007, Charlie Engle became the first man to run across the Sahara Dessert. The endeavor required him and two other runners to run two marathons a day for 111 consecutive days. As life-changing and challenging as that was, perhaps his most significant challenge has been his life of sobriety. In this episode, Charlie shares how addiction ruled his life for many years and how he finally realized that no one was coming to save him, and his only way out was to choose to change. His change came in the form of turning his weakness of addiction into an obsession with running, and he's never looked back.Charlie has been clean and sober since July 23, 1992. He has a long list of pursuits and accomplishments, and he's always going around the world searching for the "next thing." Charlie is a runner, husband, father, and writer.

In this episode, I share a different thought on comparison. While we are inundated with messages to stop comparing ourselves to others, I find myself still struggling with comparison at times. In many ways, you will see that comparison is part of our human condition and sometimes happens whether we like it or not. You'll see why what we do with comparison, not comparison itself, is actually the problem. I talk about five things that we all can practice and substitute for comparison when it sets in.Connect with Justin: Instagram.com/kellerthinks | Circlefifty.com | medium.com/@kellerthinks | fb.com/kellerthinks | twitter.com/kellerthinks | TikTok.com/@kellerthinks
