Here's an EPIC story from today's guest: Blake Fly was grocery shopping when he saw a box of Frosted Flakes. After using ONE of the strategies we talked about in today's episode, he recorded a video showcasing the box of Frosted Flakes that ended up putting $50,000+ into his pocket. Wut? Yes. You read that right. I have MAD respect for Blake because he's a MASTER at leveraging innovative and unexpected approaches and relationship building approaches to fuel both business and life. Literally everything he does is cool and unexpected. Other Examples: - He's the producer of a 55-year event series for entrepreneurs called “Thank U Live” (Why 55?

Welcome back to the Daily Gratitude Minute. This is Scott Colby from Say It With Gratitude. Last night I participated in an online event called Thank You Live, hosted by Blake Fly. His mission is to do this event every year for 55 years. So this was number seven, I believe he does it every December. and there's several things I like about it, but I'm gonna focus on one thing. It's one of the first things we did. Uh, we, he had us reflect on our year, you know, when December comes and it's almost time to turn the calendar into the new year. I know for me personally, I know for many people we focus on what we want to accomplish the following. That is great, but we don't tend to reflect on the things that we're proud of, that we accomplished during the past year. So what Blake had us do was write down every month of the year, of course, January through December, and he had us write down something that we accomplished, something that we are we're proud of for each month, and it could be multiple. So you might be wondering like, Hey, how I can't remember what I did in February. I can't even remember what I had for lunch yesterday. That is true. So Blake gives some hints on how to remember, uh, things. And the thing that worked for me, uh, the best was looking at my pictures. So I just went to my online photo album and Google, and I looked at all my pictures for January. and that reminded me of something that I accomplished. Did the same thing for February, March, April, all the way throughout the year. So that helped me remember all that I had done, and that's not the only way you could do it. He suggested you could also look at your calendar. Um, sometimes that reminds you of what you did, uh, during the year, maybe even social media photos. And look, search for those by month. Um, anyway, so I encourage you to go through this. Reflect on what you did this past year. Celebrate your accomplishments, see what you're proud of, and that'll help you feel good and and focus on what you want your next year to look like. Uh, one last thing before I sign off. I've got some really cool tools to help you live in more gratitude, both, uh, personally and professionally. Uh, you can go to gratitude toolkit.com and download some goodies there. They're all free. I'm Scott Colby with Say It With Gratitude, and this has been the Daily Gratitude Minute. Cheers.

Back in the summer of 2015, when I first started to seriously work on this podcast, I had a goal of reaching 100 episodes. Since I didn't really know what I was getting myself into, that felt like a big hairy audacious goal. By the time I reached episode 100 I loved this medium, but almost gave up the show and started a new one. Fortunately, I stuck with this show and today, I'm recording episode 300! To help me mark this milestone, I've invited my friend Blake Fly to interview me. At his core, he believes that appreciation is rocket fuel to create lifelong business relationships and he has built his career around this single idea. I interviewed him in episode 258.

Blake Fly isn't an ordinary speaker or author. He is working on the mission of improving campus culture by instilling confidence in the minds of students. He embeds the actions of mindfulness and appreciation into the daily lives of the students and staff. With his expertise he has been offered to be a TEDx conference host and a featured TEDx speaker. He is also the author of best selling and life changing book- “The Campus Life Guide.” Here is an interesting conversation with Blake getting some less talked but highly effective resources that could effect our career and business.

Of our three core values in FRD, Authentic Curiosity is at the top of the list. One thing I love about our community is that members have deep wisdom, while remaining wise enough to know there's more to learn.  They have an insatiable appetite for resources that help them be more present and powerful at home.  When I learned about the questions my buddy Blake started asking about thriving in his marriage, and succeeding as a dad, I needed to have a longer conversation on the podcast.    Let's rewind for a second and set the stage here… Before Blake even moved in with his wife, he started asking around, “How do you live with a woman?” Some answers were lackluster… Stuff like “Don't leave the toilet seat up”, but he was looking for more than platitudes.   One day, a guy dropped some wisdom when he said… WAKE UP READY. Wake up with intention and positive anticipation so that you don't miss a thing. Eventually the question evolved to “How do you love a woman?”  And then questions about fatherhood.  Our interview is fun, and filled with brilliance.  In this chat, we talk about “bro-countability” meetings, unexpected appreciation, how to accept and love your partner for who she is every day, and so much more!  Blake "Fly" Fleischacker Podcast Highlights: Life motivators: LIL (Location Independent Lifestyle), FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) and Family How to wake up ready and support your wife's needs with the question, “Who are you today, my love?” Building a group of “paternity brothers” who will support you during early parenthood.

Blake Fly has taken the pain out of sales and marketing and made it fun. The secret? Just being thankful and kind. Blake is the founder of “Thank University” and teaches entrepreneurs how to build their businesses (and not be weirded out by) delivering unexpected appreciation and gratitude.   Here he joins The YES Effect Podcast with Shelli Varela to share how he started and grew his “Thank You” movement (what began as a holiday party), and some simple, everyday things you can do to be more top of mind for potential customers and collaborators, by simply being kind.  In this episode, you'll learn: How Blake grew his own reach with daily social media posts How you can incorporate more fun into your business without sacrificing income and impact How you can get on almost anyone's attention - even out of thin air A story of how Blake generated a ton of work for himself simply by sending a video of a cereal box in a grocery aisle to a friend (true story - it's hilarious) Why every time you think about someone you should TELL them  How Blake and his wife started his giant “Thank You” event by inviting some friends over to write thank you cards for each other The power of doing a “Future Interview” to visualize and materialize success Why we should consider making sales and marketing more wacky and weird (it works!) How he encouraged one of his Thank University members to finally finish a book…simply by making it all about his own dad.   Quotables: “Sales & marketing can be a blast if we're OK with making it weird and wacky by being our super normal self.” -BF   “Do it imperfectly, because it actually guarantees you a better outcome.” -SV   “Making a deal bigger in business (means) lean in and bet on yourself. Why not?” -BF   “How many times do we miss an opportunity to let  someone know they matter to make someone be seen or remind somebody that we believe in them?” -SV   “Instead of making sales and marketing, what is the invitation to what party, and what's a cool way to give out as many invitations to the ideal people as possible?” -BF   “Oftentimes, before you can believe in yourself, you need to borrow somebody else's confidence.  And sometimes you never know how simple it is to change somebody's day but somebody's life.” -SV Links mentioned in this episode: Blake's “3 Simple Ways To INSTANTLY Connect With Potential Promotional Partners” https://instantconnecting.com/    Blake on IG: https://www.instagram.com/blakefly/?hl=en  Join The YES Effect Inner Circle Facebook Group for a behind the scenes experience about what it means to Believe, Belong and Become!   Join Shelli on Facebook Join Shelli on Instagram Join Shelli on YouTube

Most job descriptions are pretty basic. They list the essential skills needed for the position, the rate of pay, and how to apply for the job. But if you're looking for someone who will be a PERFECT fit, then writing the perfect job description may require a bit more thought.   In addition to providing details about the position itself, a compelling job description should also include why you're so passionate about what you do and information about your office ‘vibe' or culture. Because if you hire someone that has all the right skills but doesn't align with your vision and isn't a good fit with your culture, it's only a matter of time before they leave (or you let them go). And that's never a good outcome!   In today's podcast episode, we'll dig deep into the 6 key components of a perfect job description. Once you have them written down, they will help you naturally weed out the applicants that aren't a great fit, and quickly spot the ones who are.   Having the right people to work alongside you in your practice is absolutely essential. When your staff members are passionate about your vision and fit PERFECTLY in your office culture, every day becomes magical.    Gold Nuggets (5:05) What's the vibe of your practice?

I'm extremely excited to welcome back Blake Fleischacker on this episode of Firebuilders LIVE. He is going to TEACH YOU THIS --> How to stay consistent in a world of distractions. Having delivered 8 TEDx talks, over 1000 keynotes around the world, and filming everyday in 2020 (yes he's up to 319 live videos), Blake is seriously someone to look up to and emulate. A husband and now soon-to-be dad, his secret is a self-proclaimed “radical consistency” in all areas of business -- constantly switching off that deep tendency to procrastinate that we all know so well. The best part? His acts are just as kind as they are consistent. This year, he's about to embark on year 5 or 55 for his annual “Thank U Live” event. A special occasion for entrepreneurs to appreciate their progress, their people, and use gratitude to grow their businesses in the year ahead. Tune in TODAY at 12pm EST and listen to Blake's advice. We all are faced with challenges and distractions from our chosen path. But he can show you his secrets to showing up strong and consistent each and every day. That's where small actions can really achieve HUGE results! Want more of Blake? Find him here: http://thankulive.com/ ---

Somewhere along the way, so many of us have felt forced into boxes at school or at work. But how do we break free, carve out our niche in life, and thrive along the way? This is what we're talking about with Blake Fly on today's episode of The YES Effect Show! Blake is one of my biggest influences. He helps artists, creatives, entrepreneurs, and other people with a message and an idea. When someone wants to share a speech, present a program, cultivate an online presence, build a community, or lead a mastermind, they can turn to Blake to learn how to impact more people, make more money, and fuel their own families, goals, and dreams. Blake wasn't the most popular kid in school, but he learned early on how to cultivate his unique abilities, find his people, and master the art of speaking. As he sees it now, whether he's delivering keynotes all over the world or creating Zoom events to empower entrepreneurs, nothing about his work has changed since high school - he simply does it at a much larger scale. I want to remind you that your story matters. Not just the story that you put out into the world, but the internal story about what we believe is possible for ourselves. If you want to know more about creating your powerful story that can change your life, 10X your business and make selling simple, join us in the Facebook Group Nice Girls Makes Sales. That is where the magic happens! IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN: How writing and delivering a 30-minute valedictory event in high school made Blake fall in love with the process of looking back on experiences, telling unique stories, and finding the universal within them. The tools and techniques Blake uses to humanize the experience of being. How to conquer your fear of the stage, make your message about your audience, and give them the gift of emotional emancipation. How Blake teaches people how to show up - and his advice for people who aren't fully expressing themselves. What Blake learned from his challenge to produce a live video every single day in 2020. Blake's vision for his Thank You event to span upwards of 50 years - and why it's never been more important to take stock of the people in our lives and express gratitude.    ---- I want to remind you that your story matters. Not just the story that you put out into the world, but the internal story about what we believe is possible for ourselves.

Homeschooling has been the most challenging part for me during quarantine!  I have been overwhelmed and stress about supporting my kids academics.  It has actually been overwhelming to say the least. My goal of this podcast is to share the good, the bad and the struggles of life.  The biggest challenge for me during this quarantine has been homeschooling. In today's episode I am going to share how difficult it has been and what i have learned through the struggle. I am not a parenting expert, so my hope of this episode,  if you are struggling too, that you know that you are not alone. Here is an amazing resource that I wanted to share with you that has been a beacon for my son.  Dave Anderson and Blake Fly have been running "The Stuck at Home Society" to support kids through this unprecedented time.

I had the wonderful opportunity to attend an online conference called Archangel Beacon hosted by Giovanni Marsico and MC'd by Blake Fly.  It was an extraordinary experience. We also had the incredible opportunity to hear Seth Godin speak about how thought leaders and entrepreneurs can be of service during this time.  He answered a question that Jadah Sellner had about how to create podcast conversations that matter and stand the test of time.  Because conversations about COVID-19 will really not be relevant when we get out of this pandemic. And it made me think; is my COVID CONVERSATION SERIES going to be obsolete after quarantine is over? My answer is no; because the tools you need to move through stress, to feel your best and live your highest self is always relevant and applicable.  This is why I am doing these episodes; these conversations are important for all of us and for you. I am here to support you. In today's episode you will learn: Movement is a powerful way to change your state and move through stress and metabolize stress hormones. Mindfulness and being present to what is a powerful way to practice being How beautiful prayers, mantras and music like that of Riya's can lower your anxiety.

They talk about the many surprising extracurriculars Blake took on in university, how to make a memorable first impression, and the power of a "thank call" over a prank call. 

This episode is a special one and a different twist than my other episodes on my podcast. In this episode I sit down with Blake Fly, a motivational speaker and purpose-driven entrepreneur and we talk about living in a state of gratitude and mindfulness and how easily it can be applied to every day life. The post Finding Purpose in a Life of Gratitude- With Blake Fly appeared first on Relentless Minds Podcast.

Blake Fly is a motivational speaker on a mission to improve campus culture by helping people realize that they matter. He seeds actions of appreciation, recognition and thoughtfulness into the daily routines of students, staff and campus partners.

Taylor invites Blake Fly to discuss his work around gratitude.  As a 8-time-Tedx-speaker, author and the Co-Founder of My Life Online, a global education company that teaches kids how to appreciate one another online, Blake has learned how expressing gratitude can change your everyday interactions.  He has been featured on CTV, Breakfast Television, The National News, and has shared the stage with CBC’s Rick Mercer.  Blake’s innovative appreciation methods have gotten him invited to speak to over 100,000 students across the continent and work with companies like LuluLemon, MEC, Microsoft and LinkedIN.

National speaker, Blake Fly, joins me for the podcast this week. Blake talked about his journey into speaking and how easy showing appreciation of others can truly be.

In our fast-paced society, many of us move so fast that we miss the opportunity to deeply acknowledge one another. Our modern means of communication has become transactional: we only talk to each other when we WANT something. What if we are missing a simple step that could yield massive results in every area of our lives? Blake Fly shows us how taking the time to express sincere gratitude and appreciation for someone will change their life, your life, and the world.

Our good friend Blake Fly is an author and incredible public speaker who routinely speaks in front of college students, business professionals, and peer groups about appreciation and gratitude. He has spoken at numerous TEDx events and his work has been featured on CityTV, CBC and National News. His message fits right in with the Too Many Jams journey and we hope he joins us on many more episodes in the future.
