Do we tend to focus more on GETTING more resources, or fully utilizing the resources we already have? I find it extremely useful to get clear on what resources I currently have access to, which ones I am vastly underutilizing, and how I can begin immediately to use them to get what I want! There are apps, for example, that we take for granted… We don't think of them as being a massive ‘resource' in our arsenal. Airbnb is an example.. How many people actually realize that they have access to homes all around the world, in a way that just a few years ago was NOT a thing?! What can you do with this resource that you haven't previously considered? This conversation will blow your mind! Follow on Instagram: Tap Here

Instead of always looking so closely at the details of our interactions with others, or the details of how we execute our tasks during the day, let's shift the focus to the ‘Energy Level' with which we are operating as we do those things.

In this episode, I will explain why becoming a master of generating peak energy ON DEMAND is the greatest key to unlocking new results in your life! Follow on Instagram: Tap Here

A lot of emphasis get put on ‘motivation'. There is a good reason for that. We love to be motivated. So often we are TRYING to generate motivation to work harder in our job, our business, or maybe our fitness.. When the thing we are actually missing is a vision that INSPIRES us. ‘Inspiration' acts like a catalyst that renews our energy, drive, and desire to achieve something awesome. A couple years ago I told my mentor that I was feeling “unmotivated”. He helped me see that really I just needed to go get inspired! Todays episode will shed some more light on this idea.
