In today's conversation I discuss how to leverage the happiness and peace inside you, to create the success you want in your life.   A friend said to me during a conversation that he noticed a huge shift in my relationship with my wife almost over night. This couldn't have been further from the truth, but it was his perception. Our relationship is unrecognizable to me, but it definitely happened one day at a time over many nights!    Small reps you take every day create a compounding effect over time. We all have evidence of that success in at least one area of our life that can be leveraged in the area that is currently your biggest anchor.   Powerful simple consistent actions can bring light to any dark chapter. For example, sending a gratitude message to your significant other or a family member is an easy consistent way to get started.   Listen to the podcast to find a simple hack that you can start doing today to transform your life.   Productive Principles:   •Self-Reflection •Self-Acceptance •Growth •Gratitude •Appreciation   Questions?

Saturday night I was having fun during a “jam session,” (At least in my head it was lol) aka YouTube lesson with Marty music teaching me my 4th chord on the guitar, and I was excited because I was making progress. My wife even commented that it was getting better. Her encouragement inspired me to record a practice session and post it on my social media channels. After the 8th recording before posting I realized that there were some serious stories of not feeling good enough going through my head.  “I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH YET”…ever tell yourself that? Well I did. Tune in to learn how I pushed past these fears and pressed the “POST” button.

I was lost in most aspects of my life as you may have heard in earlier podcasts, but most lost in my spiritual connection. Over the last few years I have learned how to create a personal relationship with God. This year I am on the journey of developing a weekly spiritual game for my family.  Today I discuss the concept of unlimited potential as I learned it in my buddhism class. Lesson learned: You are not the storm. You are the sky and the storm cannot destroy the sky.

Hello this is Franco Cabral broadcasting from the honest liar podcast a conversation around finding the inner liar within all of us and leveraging the truth to create expansion across all areas of your life....todays topic is….Setting the Tone As I mentioned 2 episodes ago one of my 2020 targets is becoming “The Harmony Man” both symbolically and literally by playing the guitar. 1/10/20 was my first lesson with Marty Music YouTube teacher, and the first step was learning how to tune my guitar and play my first two chords.  I had a vision of playing the guitar around the fire and I have aligned many of my targets this year around the vision of that man. This first guitar lesson was extremely insightful as it made me realize a powerful life lesson in winning in your targets in 2020.  Tune in to learn how to win in your targets this year too! Yes I know another music reference lol. Get ready for many of them to come as I am on my journey of becoming the Harmony Man.

Hello this is Franco Cabral broadcasting from the honest liar podcast a conversation around finding the inner liar within all of us and leveraging the truth to create expansion across all areas of your life....todays topic is…WRONG TARGET = WRONG RESULT! Often we have a limited perspective on the way we are showing up for others in our lives, because we can only see what we can see. In today's Podcast I share a powerful assignment that I gave to my Best Life Group members, which gave a unique perspective and the ability for them to uncover their blindspots by the people closest to them.   Tune in to learn more about how to uncover your blindspots, and  create even more impact in your lives and those of the people you love.    Topics: #2020 #targets #goals # #dark #light #success #clarity #business #father # husband   Questions?

Hello this is Franco Cabral broadcasting from the honest liar podcast a conversation around finding the inner liar within all of us and leveraging the truth to create expansion across all areas of your life....todays topic is…Taking a Walk Today I take a walk and reflect on the progress of this last year and the targets I've crushed along the way. I talk about the importance of brainstorm new goals for 2020 and ask myself where I want to be when I stand in 2021.

In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I speak about how important it is to create space to allow yourself to feel. When I am going through a tough time and feel like all of my walls are crashing down, I go through a process of breathing fire where I release my anger and emotions and pain. This process helps me to release the darkness and find the light.  If you let yourself feel anger and rage, and release those feelings, it allows you to reconnect with the light that the darkness is hiding. Diving deeper into stress and anxiety releases the primal energy that lives in all of us.  •Self-Reflection •Self-Acceptance •Gratitude •Loving Myself •Commitment •Overcoming Fear •Taking Initiative   Topics: #pain #fire #anger #rage #scared #dark #light #success #triumph #clarity #business  Questions?

Hello this is Franco Cabral broadcasting from the honest liar podcast a conversation around finding the inner liar within all of us and leveraging the truth to create expansion across all areas of your life....todays topic is….Bright Fire! Everyone wants to ignite Fire in their life, but few people build a fire with the intention of making it last… It's easy to say…  I want a marriage that's on fire, I want a body that is weaponized, I want a deep spiritual connection, I want an authentic and powerful relationship with my kids, I want a business that I love and is raining profits, BUT you have to also choose the dark that comes with all of the light.  My wife and I got to a place where we have now truly chosen each other with eyes wide open and committed to loving each other knowing all of us. The fire that is burning now is hotter and more real than ever before, but we are 100% responsible for keeping it burning bright! This conversation today is about how we got to this bright fire and how to build a fire that is built to last.

In today's conversation I discuss how to accelerate your growth with a two-sided conversation. I set out with a spiritual goal this year…Define how I will lead my children spiritually. While on this search I have dedicated my spiritual commitment around developing a deeper understanding of Buddhism. I have been studying Buddhism through podcasts, books, and many visits solo to the temple. I learned more about Buddhism this weekend than with all of my other temple visits combined. Find out why one day made so much impact in my discovery process and how to leverage this concept across all areas of your life.

In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I have Dr Nitin Gupta from Rivertowns Pediatrics. We had a powerful conversation around the concept of burn out and the impact that high stress positions have on one's self and family. We had a powerful conversation with a special insight behind the curtain of what it's truly like to be a doctor in today's society.  Dr. Gupta shared the dehumanization that exists in the world of medicine and what brought him to passionately to pursue his new vision for healthcare.  You do not want to miss this powerful real and authentic conversation.  Topics: - Entrepreneurship - Happiness - Growth - Life Values - Burn out  - Immigrant first gen Interview Link: https://youtu.be/JX3f1hVOEdM Questions?

The night before my wife went away my son was sick and up all night, it brought me back to a time where I was reminded of how much sleep deprivation sucks. Dropping my wife off at the airport the next day I was all ego...I kept saying “I got this” when in reality my frame was weak.    Sienna got sick shortly after and I now had two kids sick at the same time, while attempting to run my business, miss work, and hold down the fort at home without my wife's support. After getting my ass kicked all week I found an even deeper appreciation for all that my wife does and felt extremely grateful in the process.    Productive Principles:    •Self-Reflection •Self-Acceptance •Growth •Accepting Ourselves Every Day •Gratitude •Appreciation •Love   Questions?

In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I speak about the significance of leaving your mark.  We all get caught up in the craziness of life and tend to overlook the small things. While I was away at a coaching program event I was able to receive a gift that I wanted to share with all of you. When you hear the word legacy you automatically think of what you're going to leave behind when you're gone. We tend to think of finances, investments, and savings but what we lose sight of is how much of an impact we are making on others. Share the mark that someone is leaving on your heart while they are still here. It is such a gift to know the impact while you are here to see and share it. It made me think differently about how I share gratitude, sending messages of love and honor daily.  The most important mark to leave in life is the one on someone's heart.  So I ask you, take an opportunity today to send a message to someone who has created a mark in your life. Let them know how it impacted you, and enjoy the powerful gift of letting them know how you feel.    Productive Principles:  •Self-Reflection •Self-Acceptance •Growth •Accepting Ourselves Every Day •Gratitude •Appreciation •Love   Questions?

In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I recall a recent difficult morning I had with my children Siena and Adrian. Late mornings can be stressful under normal circumstances, but when your morning routine falls apart completely sometimes the only way to stay sane is to adjust your frame in order to role with the punches. I speak on the importance of taking time to reflect on how my routine need to grow with me as I continue to set bigger targets to create expansion for myself and for my family.   Productive Principles: -Spirituality -Self-Reflection -Self-Acceptance -Accepting Ourselves Every Day -Loving yourself Email me at franco.cabral@iCloud.com Visit my Website: https://francocabral.com Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsfrancocabral/ Follow me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/franco.cabral2 Follow me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/franco-cabral-29ba981a/

Today is fight day! I started this journey 10 months ago when I decided that I wanted to become the man that can step in the ring.  I embraced the physical part of the journey, I put in the reps and I am physically ready for my fight. This required being consistent on sleep, diet, and training sessions. However, I didn't expect the emotional shit storm that I have been battling within myself to become that man.  This process has broken me and made me. I discovered what truly happens when you force yourself way beyond your comfort zone. I had to destroy the version of myself and the stories that existed when I started this journey. The process has been painful and beautiful.  Fear is your biggest catalyst to expansion. Fear means go!  What are you most afraid of and who would you have to become to be on the other side of that fear?   Productive Principles Determination Growth Gratitude Overcoming fear Positive Mindset Commitment   Questions?

In today's episode of the Honest Liar, I speak about how I am working to create a financial balance with my wife. I discuss how in the past, the stories I've created have held us back.  I realized that I have a lot of pain and stories around money because of my personal insecurities.  I first need to allow myself to be vulnerable in sharing my financial state with my wife in order to overcome my personal financial fears. This will ultimately help us to create a deeper connection. I decided to start stacking my stories and fears around my finances. Overcoming fear and pain is always the gateway to expansion.  Only through expansion will my wife and I continue to deepen our connection.  So I challenge you to take a look at the facts that are driving your fear. The only way to change them is to face them. If you feel exposed or have pain around your finances, just know you are not alone.   Productive Principles: •Self-Acceptance •Growth •Gratitude •Financial stability •Overcoming fear •Commitment   Questions?

The Honest Liar Podcast Episode #13-Winning the war!    In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I touch upon the frame concept of the King/Queen, Lord, Solider, Servant, and how they play a significant role in our lives. The King is our vision, the Lord is the manager of the vision the King/Queen creates, the Soldier shoots the targets that we create, and the Servant does the grunt work for us.  The goals you set in life and your accomplishments come because you create space. The daily tactical battle is that the King/Queen need space to create. In order to carry out a mission the King/Lord create a strategy on a weekly basis, which leads into how you are going to execute the quarterly mission. When the King/Queen do not have a vision, the Lord can't give directions to Soldier or Servant. When the Soldier doesn't have a clear vision or target, the Soldier will still shoot and try to burn down what you've worked hard on, instead of building up and creating.   The lesson is to find time in the next week to create your quarterly massive expansion. Don't get caught in the trap that you haven't been on track, you can accomplish what you want in a year in 3 months. Procrastinating and waiting until the new year is never a good idea, I encourage you to start today!   Productive Principles:  •Self-Reflection •Self-Acceptance •Growth  •Gratitude   Questions?

Today's episode of The Honest Liar includes a very powerful conversation, as I sit down to have coffee with my Mom.

In today's episode of The Honest Liar I speak about the importance of having a weekly meeting with the CEO of the universe, and what it means to me and my growth in every dimension of life.    I don't need to go to church or a chapel to feel connected with God, he is present everywhere. I feel most strongly connected to him when I am in nature, so I prefer to have my weekly meeting with him outdoors.    I begin my weekly meetings with God by meditating to clear my mind and to set my intentions. I then write what I am grateful for and unapologetically ask God for things I desire.     These tactical tools have helped me to develop a connection with God, and allowed me to have faith and a mindset of abundance instead of fear.   As my connection with God has strengthened, the phrase “I swear to God” means so much more to me now than it did two years ago. As my bond with God has grown stronger, faith has helped me face my lies, fears, and doubts.    So I encourage you to try these tactical tools which can help you grow your faith, and tackle other aspects of your life.   Questions?

In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I speak about the importance of how creation requires space. Space is required for anything you desire in life. For any challenge in life we create stories of fear and doubt, but without making space to clear our minds we can't hold the capacity for what we truly desire. My fears of not being a fighter are stories I have always told myself. I had to make space to understand what I could do to change these stories. Taking time to date myself helped me be alone, get myself back to a clear space, and continue to make room for my desires. You can't avoid the fears you have. Conscious actions that give you time to process your thoughts will help you overcome the fears. You'll be able to honor the feelings you're feeling rather than internally battling with yourself.  So, I challenge you think about what area of your life needs the most attention. Relationships, business, or even spirituality. Think of how you can create space and take action. Figure out how to break away from the fear to get what you desire. •Self-Reflection •Self-Acceptance •Gratitude •Loving Myself •Commitment •Overcoming Fear •Taking Initiative Questions? Comments?

Singles are not sexy…   In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I speak about how consistency is key. When I first started my journey and committed to Wake-Up Warrior, it was all about the reps and effort I put in. Yes, I saw the perfection aspect and created stories of fear and doubt to stop, but I pushed through. It's all about routine and getting your mind into that positive state. Singles are not sexy, we all strive for the home runs but here's when we need to step back and recourse. It's important we understand that it all starts with a small commitment. I focused on the daily game which is based on Body, Being, Balance, and Business- The Core 4, which is 1 point for every area. Each day starting from the moment I wake up I track my progress to see where I am. This small step makes a significant impact, and re-wires your brain on how you think. So, I challenge you to do the same, add up your points and what you have achieved for the day.   Core 4 Recap: Body:               ½ Fitness               ½ fuel Being:                ½ Meditation                ½ Journal Balance:                 ½ Daily Deposit                 ½ Daily Deposit Business:                  ½ Discover                  ½ Declare    Productive Principles: •Self-Reflection •Self-Acceptance •Gratitude •Loving Myself •Commitment •Overcoming Fear  •Taking Initiative •Values   Questions?

In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I speak about the importance of recognizing your fears and pushing through them. My greatest fears are my greatest opportunities. After I became a father, I realized I was scared that I could not protect my children. I decided to take boxing lessons in the beginning of the year to overcome that fear. I started boxing to find the fighter within me. Boxing requires a lot of repetition, which is necessary in overcoming your fears. Even this podcast scared me. But making and keeping my commitment to do the reps continues to help minimize the fear. I have learned through experiences discussed on this podcast, fear is the most powerful weapon I have. On the other side of fear is expansion...The bigger the fear, the greater the expansion.

In todays episode I talk about the importance of intention behind building the best body.

Making time for just you and your significant other without your kids is important. As terrible as this may sound, it's okay to take time and leave your kids. When I planned this trip and committed to it financially with my wife, I knew there was no turning back. I kept filling my head with stories of guilt, fear, and doubt. Realizing that my wife and I haven't been away for more than 2 days alone without kids, this was well deserved. It is so important to continue to date your significant other. I coursed corrected and took action to spend this quality time with my wife. We had no plan of who was going to help with our kids, dogs, or even business but we took the leap and we're having the best time enjoying connection we almost lost. So, I challenge you to make a commitment to do something that you think is impossible. Take the leap, it's always worth it in the long run.

In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I speak about how important gratitude is and why simplicity is so important. Being in a dark place a year ago I needed to figure how to love myself, and get rid of the repetitive reps of fear, doubt, and insecurity. I was ready to make a change but wasn't sure where to begin. Gratitude is definitely not something you learn it's something you acquire and practice. I needed to hold myself accountable and had to start doing estimable things for myself. Every great journey starts with a single step. That simple step is gratitude, start a journal, and take 2 minutes out of your hectic schedule to record a voice memo, about why you love yourself. Set your intentions change is not accidental. Without being able to be grateful and look back at things I have done, I would burn out and become resentful. This caused me to course correct and also take a date night for myself once a week. Show yourself gratitude first, and watch your energy completely shift. So, I challenge you to start your own daily gratitude practice! Start simple with “I get to do this” not “I have to do this”.

  In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I speak about how important it is to date yourself and learn when to course correct. No matter if you're having the best day as I was, things go downhill fast. You have to take time out for yourself, or your tank will run empty, like mine did.  When running on empty you allow the small things to irritate you, as opposed to when you're in a stronger head space (frame) you can deal with life's situations better. When your tank is on empty you are the only one who can fill it up. We tend to rely on loved ones to fill our tank and get upset when they don't, but we are the only ones that are able to do this.  Remember to never let your tank go empty, plan a weekly date for yourself. If your frame collapses you will never be able to hold a space for your loved ones.

In today's episode of The Honest Liar, I will be sharing with you an exercise I learned at a previous Warrior conference that was essential in me creating the foundation for my journey of self-improvement. This is the first interactive episode and I'm very excited to share.   Unlocking Our Truths Exercise Create Physical Space- create a relaxed environment where you can be fully present with your self. No phones, no distractions, but plenty of time and patience. Create Mental Space- Spend 5-10 minutes sitting in silence or meditating. We want a mind clear of all thoughts so we can start reflecting on how we're taking care of ourselves physically. Grab a notepad or journal- Highly recommend not taking these notes on a digital device. We don't want a potential distraction and written out by hand will be a more beneficial experience, I promise.  Take 5 minutes to write down the current “Fruits” in your body- Write all of the “truths”, not feelings, that exist in your body today (Weight, substance use, exercise consistency,  nutrition, health issues, etc.) Take 5 minutes to write down all your feelings- For every “Fruit” you listed in the previous step, write next to it one word that expresses your feelings towards that “fruit”. This is an important step. We want to be raw and authentic when doing this process and it will be emotional. Optional: If you have extra time, try to write out why you have those feelings.  Take 5 minutes to go over the Focus- What are the stories, behaviors, or patterns that exist for you producing that “fruit”. What is the reasoning behind that “fruit”? Take 2 minutes to identify the Facts?- For every “fruit”, determine if it's working for you or not. This is a simple step, but it will be impactful in guiding you in building a new foundation. Repeat- Do this process again with the concepts of Being, Balance, and Business CONTACT ME (SEE BELOW) IF YOU WOULD LIKE A GUIDED EXPERIENCE. * This process will be emotional, but you have to be honest and authentic during this process in order to truly get the most out of this exercise. Productive Principles: Accepting Pain Body-How am I taking care of my Body? Being- Evaluating our spiritual selves Balance- All our most important relationships Business- Evaluating our financial situation   As always, please feel free to reach out to me.

“What comes on the other side of fear is power” Welcome back to The Honest Liar podcast. In our second episode, I discuss the origin of this podcast: What does the name mean? How did this all start? Why am I even doing this? That last question is the most important.    December 2018, during a Warrior convention at a meditation session I heard “The Voice”, which I now truly believe was God speaking to me, tell me “It's time to broadcast!”. From then on, starting a podcast was a goal I had set, but the issue came with the fact that I didn't know exactly why I wanted to start. At first, the reasoning was to leave a legacy of lessons for my children, and while that's an amazing idea, there were other ways to accomplish this than broadcasting to the world. So no, that answer wasn't good enough and I knew it. The true answer was revealed through a process of self-reflection and self-acceptance.    Doing this podcast is a part of my journey of owning my darkness/light, and for anyone else listening to be inspired to leverage theirs to create the world they desire.   Productive Principles: Spirituality- Focusing on improving the quality of our spirit, regardless of religious beliefs Facing Our Fears Overcoming Darkness Accepting Ourselves Every Day   Questions?
