What separates the best from the rest? In any profession, you have your elite performers… the top 5%... who seem to naturally differentiate themselves from everyone else. The question then becomes, “What makes them special?” I got the answer from Rockstar sports psychologist Gio Valiente, and last week, I shared it with the thousands of agents at my annual Success Summit. Today's Tom Ferry Podcast Experience delivers an excerpt from that session, exploring five traits common to those extraordinary individuals. In it, you'll learn: The reason why most people underperform compared to their potential Beyond talent and work ethic, why it's critical to own your unique perspective How elite performers turn best practices into habits and repeatable processes Why letting go of the “control freak” mentality is crucial to your success, and more!   Here's the harsh truth – all of us are capable of so much more than we actually achieve. If you're ready to tap into your full potential, this is a can't-miss episode!

Most days, Steve Kelsey is up before the sun rises for his morning walk. "I like to get a lot of steps in every day," he explained. And for those walks, in addition to his tennis shoes, Kelsey puts on a pair of work gloves, grabs his trusty reacher tool and a bucket -- so he can pick up trash along the way. He's been doing it since 2022 when he first moved to Chicago and fell in love his historic condo building, but not all the trash in the streets around it. "I decided why don't I just try to pick some of this up while I'm getting my walk in, so I just started around the block, and then I would look up the street and say, 'OK it's very windy that it's just gonna end up down here,' and so I started doing that, and then I just kinda got addicted to it, and just kept going," he recalled. Kelsey spends about two to three hours a day picking up trash and usually ends up having to empty his bucket three to four times along the way . "I do from Irving Park to Montrose and Broadway to Marine," he said. Over the years, Kelsey's become a familiar sight to people in Lakeview, including Karyn whose daughter lives along his route. "She's just is so appreciative. We all are. So thank you. And we need more of it," she said. Kelsey gets that kind of reaction from a lot of people. "90% of the time it's thanks for doing that," he explained. In fact, he heard "thanks for doing that" so often, he started an instagram page with the handle "Steve doing that." On it, he chronicles his daily walks with maps and the buckets of trash he picks up - hoping it might inspire others to lend a hand. "If everybody would just pick up one piece of litter a day and just develop a habit," he said adding that it's a good feeling to give back to the neighborhood in such a simple way.

The MLB Trade Deadline is here, and Chris Mathis believes this is a defining moment for the Tampa Bay Rays. In this episode, Chris lays out why the Rays should make a blockbuster move—but only if it's for a legitimate impact player who can elevate this team from contender to World Series champion. He explains why this isn't about making headlines or emptying the farm system. It's about capitalizing on a championship opportunity while it's right in front of you. Chris also discusses why successful organizations know when to be patient—and when it's time to take a calculated swing. Championship windows don't stay open forever, and standing pat can leave a franchise asking one painful question for years to come: "What if?"

“Send Coach John a message”Found a great (and short) post that I wanted to share with you today. It comes from Kylie Riordan (@mindfulheal) and she introduces this post with this:  “Goodness I love these people.”  The thought is this:  “The people whose first instinct is to smile when you make eye contact with them are some of Earth's greatest treasure.”  So, I caught a couple of things here. First is that I need to be this person more often.  It also helped to remind me that when I smile more it benefits someone else and myself.  Once again, something that the world needs more of for sure.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

The team from BuckeyeInsiders.com got a chance to watch Ohio State men's basketball practice on Thursday, and came away thinking that former 5-star forward recruit Anthony Thompson could be a difference-maker for Jake Diebler's team this season. In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, Basketball Insider Marcus Hartman joins host Tom Orr to discuss their biggest takeaways from watching practice, and also speaking with Diebler, and the Buckeyes' four true freshmen, Thompson, guard LJ Smith, forward Alex Smith, and center Vuk Lazarevic. This episode is presented by Jeff Ruby's Columbus, the award-winning, upscale steakhouse in Downtown Columbus, named one of the Top 50 steakhouses in America by Food Network.

“Send Coach John a message”I saw a gentle and small reminder that I think we all take for granted a lot during life. It comes from Alan Stein, Jr. (@AlanSteinJr) who is the author of a couple of great books that I read and I think it would be great if you connected with both of them at some point - “Raise Your Game” and “Sustain Your Game”.  His quote is this:  “One decision can change the course of your entire life. The power to choose is our greatest gift.”  I've heard that a few times that our greatest gift we have (and it could be one of a few), is that of choice.  I think it's worth it for us to keep working on our choices in life. It's our thinking. Our actions. Our habits. Our words. There's many things that we get to choose throughout life. One thing for sure I know I can keep getting better with the choices I make AND I know I need to do that for sure.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I'm not sure why lessons from rivers have been a thing lately, but Bob Starkey (@CoachBobStarkey) had a post that deals with both persistence and resilience thoughts all from what a river does all the time.  “A river only breaks through rock because it shows up everyday.”  Just keep showing up like a river and go around, over, through, under, etc., the “rocks” that we face every day. Just don't quit. Sounds easy, but we know it's not.  Amazing lessons to pick up from nature once again that we can use for sure.  Many things that we have to get through are not even as tough as a rock is. Remember, over time that river will wear down the rock, even break the rock into pieces. What we have to face may seem impossible, but we need to also remember we don't have thousands of years either.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”From POSITIVITY (@PositivitySaid) - Reminded us that we should  “Never forget - it's a luxury to have zero health problems.”  I chuckled at this a bit as I have plenty, but I still view my life as full of so many things that I'm grateful for. Actually my health issues (not often enough), help me to realize that I have a great life - IN SPITE of my challenges. I also realize that nobody, not one single human being has zero problems.  There are many different types of problems that all humans have to deal with in life, but I would say that (and I've heard it said before), our health is the most valuable thing to have in life. We only get one shot at life and something like this sure does help us to understand that.  Don't forget to look at the “other” luxuries you have in life too.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I was lucky to find this one in my scrolling for knowledge.  I found it from Book Therapy (@Book_therapy223) and the powerful thought is this:  “You've already survived so much.  Don't let this moment convince you to quit.”  Whatever you are working on, there will be a moment soon that will get you thinking about quitting. It probably won't be just one time today.  Whenever it does happen, stay connected to this thought. I know I need to for sure.  Keep finding your reasons why you are doing what you are doing and then also connect them to your reasons why you know you should not quit.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”One of the all time classiest people that I have learned from in my life is Jim Rohn.  This post is one of the biggies as far as life lessons go. It comes from Jim Rohn Official (@OfficialJimRohn) “For those who loved Jim Rohn, few lines hit harder than this: “Discipline weighs ounces, regret weighs tons.” It's a timeless reminder that the small weight of daily effort is nothing compared to the crushing burden of missed chances. Which one are you choosing to carry?”  I liked playing the recording for you so that you could actually hear Jim's voice.  Do yourself a favor and search for and listen to content from Jim Rohn. Pure Gold!   I got a powerful thought of how fast time has gone by - listening to the 70's & 80's Music station on TV…. and WOW.. seeing some of the years connected to some of my favorite songs growing up…. Holy Cow!!  There simply are some things that I know I need to act upon, so that I don't have as many regrets as I get older, and I will (we all will) get older!  It's up to each of us to take a good luck at this thought from Mr. Rohn and we are the only ones that can do something about it for ourselves and our futures.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I connected with a post from Chris Foster (@CoachC_Foster) that served as a big reminder - “That dream was planted in your heart for a reason.”  I needed this and I think others need this reminder too!! No matter what is going on in our lives, staying connected to our dream(s), doesn't mean we have to uproot our lives. We can continue to learn, grow, and find times to work on our dreams and connect that dream (or dreams) into our lives. I tend to get down about some things at times and I forget to keep connected to my dreams. Keep the spark going, no matter what is going on in my life.  Look deep inside yourselves my friends, find that connection and keep it going!!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I found a great thought - a short episode today to share this from Kylie Riordan (@mindfulheal) & this reminder: “Some of your favorite days haven't even happened yet and that's the magic of being alive.” ~ (@mindfulheal). This got me fired up to realize that I still have better days ahead of me. My new favorite day is still coming and then there will be another one, and so on. I love that mindset to keep looking ahead for the next best day!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I shared a very emotional story in today's episode from our weekend trip to Northern Michigan. We saw a dog tied up on the side of a major expressway. Someone abandoned the poor thing. I got on my phone right away and called 911 to report this and they said they would send someone out right away to help the dog. I sure hope the dog is ok. I was in tears and I still have not shaken the memory from my mind and heart. It got me thinking about how much we need to treat animals / ourselves / others, so much better than we really do.  Humans have shown throughout history that we don't do this very well. This incident reminded me personally that I need to keep striving to get better and be better.  Better for myself, my wife, family, friends, others, and this includes our dog and other pets.  Someone's heartless, gutless and inhuman choice to leave their dog out there like that, has made a BIG impact on me to keep striving to be better.  I hope this helps you do the same.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. ** 

“Send Coach John a message”I found something that got me thinking, reflecting, smiling and yes, having a few tears. It came from liminal (@Liminal1988) where they shared this post:  “A happy life doesn't consist of just happy moments, it is a mixture of both the happy and the sad.  There will be good times - when you laugh with your friends until your cheeks are read and your stomach hurts, trips to the park and the zoo, shopping and late-night ice-cream runs, and private jokes and notes passed in class, and every little prank that you play. There will be long lazy days spent at the beach as you dip into the ocean just as the sun sets, and holidays to countries with tender sand and warmth in the air, and nights you spend indoors with your family wrapped around you and the comforting days that you spend alone. ~ Ruby Dhal, (author of The Path to Self-love.)  Each item in this post got me thinking about many things throughout my life. In fact when I typed this out, I got to thinking about other things too.  So many things reminded me that I have had a happy life so far AND I plan to choose to continue to have more of a happy life too as I get older.  I sincerely hope this helps you to connect with having a happy life too.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

The Book of Acts: 5 Marks of a Difference Maker (Acts 9:32–43) Ryan Rice by North Valley Church

“Send Coach John a message”I found an amazingly short and simple item that I know I need to add to my to do list - maybe you do too. It comes from The Motivational Quotes (@MQUOTESLIFE) and the to-do item is this:  “Sometimes rest is the most productive thing you can do.”  One reason I see this as a good thing is that I'm getting older and so I can justify it a bit more.  But I'm also seeing the truth and importance of this truth too. To get through the tough moments that life can throw at us nowadays, really finding the time to rest and recharge is becoming more of a necessity instead of something to say “oh I wish I could rest and recharge”.  By resting, recharging, clearing our head, feeling better, recovering, etc., is that we can be better to go back and deal with things a bit later. Remember, when we are not at our best - we can't be our best for others.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I found today's motivation tidbit from Jim Rohn Official (@OfficialJimRohn) where he reminds us about what success is really made up of.  Remember, we all have our own pieces of what success means to us.  "Success is a few simple disciplines practiced every day; while failure is simply a few errors in judgment repeated every day." — “Jim Rohn Simple. Daily. Repeated. That's the formula.”  As I let this sink in a bit, it's easy for me to see that I have plenty to work on each and every day and I am grateful for the chance to keep getting better.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”Found a very spot-on post here for all of us to connect with. It comes from Inspiration & More (@LifeWithJohn) where this is the gold nugget he shared:  “The world is changed by your example not by your opinion. - Paul Coelho ~ Talking the talk isn't enough………Walk the Walk!”  Way too many of us simply do too much talking (yes.. That is me you see standing up holding my hand up… guilty for sure on this one), instead of putting more action out there into the world. Social media is dominated I think with so many “keyboard warriors” who spew thoughts and opinions and then they are actually “walking a totally different walk.”  The hidden agenda by so many people is for so many other reasons than simply to try and live a good life and help others.   I know for one I need to keep walking my correct walk a bit more. I'm not going to put too many of my opinions out there telling others how to do their walk… other than encouraging them to actually “walk their walk.”  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I came across this list of great ways to improve our mental health. In today's world, it is for sure worthwhile to keep improving ourselves, and our mental health is one of the best things we can do for sure.  It comes from Sports Psychology (@SportPsychTips)  Here it is:  “Eight ways to improve your mental health:  1. Think positive, 2. Be in the moment, 3. Have fun, 4. Live a healthy lifestyle, 5. Work toward your goals, 6. Love others, 7. Have purpose in life and 8. Ask for help.”  I know for sure I have plenty to work on and this list sure does give me some things to keep focusing in on.  How about you?   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I found a powerful and simple statement from Kylie Riordan (@mindfulheal) that I connected with in yesterday's podcast.  “When we understand that each day isn't one more day, but one less, we start giving more value to what truly matters.”  I guess it's easier to see the truth in this statement as we get older. The key is to not wait too long to connect with it and allow it to have an impact on how you live your days.  Know that today is the youngest we will ever be and that tomorrow we will be older and closer to our last day. This gets me thinking about not wasting little moments throughout my day - right now.  Look around and see what really matters in your life and start connecting with that more and more… today!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”I was doing some looking for things to inspire, teach, remind and get me to do some reflecting… and I found this from Bob Starkey (@CoachBobStarkey).  You can also connect with him HERE on his blog site.  Coach shared:  “Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow.” ~ Anthony J. D'Angelo.  It's something that I discussed with a few friends & former colleagues on a quick visit to my old work place this morning.  It really does add tremendous value to every one of my days and it continues to inspire me to keep improving in any way I can. It's something that I will continue to share with others too.

“Send Coach John a message”My connection with John O'Leary keeps getting stronger as I continue to see what a difference maker he is for people. A recent podcast from him had this description “It is rarely the brightest lights or biggest personalities that change the world most profoundly. Far more often and far more importantly, it's ordinary people quietly choosing to use whatever gifts they have to lift the lives around them.”  You can find the short episode HERE.  The short part I am sharing in today's show gets me thinking about saying YES to doing more to making a difference for others and myself. The world needs us to use our gifts for the people around us that need help in whatever way we can help them.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

Have you ever noticed how easy it is to miss God when life feels ordinary? We pray for miracles, yet overlook the countless ways Heaven is already moving around us. We beg God for provision while standing in the middle of prayers he's already answering. We ask him to open doors, never realizing the door in front of us was opened by his hand all along. Girl, God is working in your life right now. Not someday. Not when things finally change. Not only in dramatic, jaw-dropping moments. Right now. In the ordinary conversation. In the unexpected timing. In the strength you somehow found to keep going. In the opportunity that “just happened” to appear. In the little things you almost brushed past without noticing. Because our God specializes in taking ordinary things and adding his extra. And when God adds his extra to your ordinary … it becomes extraordinary. Our God is not limited to meet needs in ordinary ways, practical ways, or expected ways. Although often times his power meets us in disguise, so we are unaware of how miraculous it truly is. We experience split second perfect timing that was orchestrated in heaven just for us, but it seems ordinary so we don’t recognize it as miraculous. We walk into divinely opened doors which only God could open for us, but because it was open when we got there and required no extra effort on our part, we failed to notice God did that. But all around you, God has been working. Every day of your life, God’s power has been on miraculous display in everything that seems ordinary. You likely never even notice … until God shows up and does something extraordinary. God is our extra. He can take our ordinary lives that seem unimpressive and normal, and he can make them radically extraordinary. You bring your ordinary, and he brings his extra. Let that be your prayer today. God, take my ordinary and make it extraordinary. I need the extra only you can offer! One of Jesus’ extraordinary miracles on earth is recorded by Matthew in a single verse. None of the other gospels mention the miracle, so it seems to be less impressive than his other miracles. But I believe this miracle is precisely what you and I need today. We need to see Jesus’ extra meeting the ordinary. Peter has just confessed that Jesus is the son of God. He has placed his faith in Jesus, committed his life to him. Then Peter is approached by tax collectors asking about Jesus’ payment of taxes. Funny, even Jesus was pestered by tax collectors. And this is what Jesus tells Peter to do in Matthew 17:27, “Go to the sea, cast in a fishhook, and take the first fish that you catch. When you open its mouth you’ll find a coin. Take it and give it to them for me and you.” This is what you call extraordinary. This miracle hidden in a single verse in our bible shows us so much about our Jesus! 1. God works through the ordinary. 2. Obedience unlocks provision 3. God partners with what's already in your hand. My friends, not everything miraculous looks dramatic. God works through ordinary things like a fish to do radically extraordinary things. Jesus could have avoided paying the taxes. Afterall, this was the temple tax, money collected to build the temple. Jesus was greater than the temple. He could have flexed just a bit, shown who he really was and proven he was exempt from this tax. But, he didn’t. Jesus is humble, there’s no need to flex. So, money was needed to pay the tax. A half-shekel, which was about 2 days wages. Jesus could have manifested the money in the pocket of his robe, and Peter would have never known the difference. But Jesus decided to be extra so Peter could be in on the miraculous. Gosh, I love that about our Jesus … He actually lets us be part of his extraordinary works. We're not needed … but we're wanted! All Peter had to be was obedient. Jesus didn't say, “Hey Peter, your tax bill is just going to be magically erased.” No, Jesus said, “Go to the sea, cast in a fishhook, and take the first fish that you catch.” Peter was being called to obedience. Action was required, and actually quite ordinary action. Isn't that what we often miss – when we need an extraordinary act of God, we overlook the very ordinary acts of obedience on our part. We want God to show up and do miraculous things without us getting our hands dirty. Girl, you still gotta put the bait on your own hook. Obedience unlocks provision. Peter still had to bait the hook and put it in the water! Sometimes the greatest miracles happen in the middle of ordinary obedience. I have to be honest with you – it's the absolute only reason I was willing to get up at 3:30 this morning to work on this devotional while at retreat on a very busy filled day. I want to see God's miracles, so I will be obedient in the ordinary things like waking up as early as needed to give God his time. Jesus didn't ask Peter to do anything insanely courageous. Nothing flashy. Not even anything exciting. No Peter, just fish. Do what you already know how to do. He uses precisely what Peter is good at … fishing. Jesus simply tells Peter to go fishing, do what he’s always done, and the money will be provided. God partners with what's already in your hand. Peter was a fisherman. He had fished nearly every day of his life. He knew how to tie a hook on. He knew how to cast that hook out. And he knew how to bring that fish in. And Jesus told him to do what was so ordinary for him, but this time it would be EXTRA. Jesus' extra on your ordinary is … extraordinary! What feels routine to you may be the very place God wants to reveal his glory. Do you want to be part of Jesus' miraculous works? Jesus will do his thing with or without you. His power will not be stopped. But you've received an invitation to be part of that work and it will be the most fulfilling and beautiful part of your entire life. Oh how I pray you won't miss it. Peter was invited into partnership to be part of this miracle, not because he was needed but because he was wanted. When Jesus invites you into a partnership with him, what is it you imagine you will need to do? Do you imagine you will need to do something big? Something really special? Something flashy? Something everyone will see? Honey, what if it will be as simple as doing what you’ve always done, but this time you just do it with Jesus working in and through you? Peter fishing wasn’t anything big and special. If anyone would have seen Peter fishing that day, they would have thought absolutely nothing of it. But, Peter was fishing in partnership with Jesus and the catch would be radically different. The difference wasn't the fishing. The difference was Jesus. JESUS IS YOUR DIFFERENCE MAKER! What if Jesus is inviting you into this miraculous partnership with him, but it’s not nearly as flashy as you imagined. It’s really quite ordinary. It’s what you’ve already been doing. It’s what you’ve been doing every day. It’s what you already know how to do. Would you do it? Really, would you show up and do what you’ve always done, but this time do it with Jesus? Peter didn't need a new calling. He needed Jesus in his current calling. Now, REALLY think about the power of God that is displayed in this single verse tucked away in a miracle no one else talked about. Of all the fish in the sea, Jesus knew precisely which fish had a coin in its mouth. He also knew exactly where that fish would need to be in order to bite Peter’s hook. God orchestrated all of that! Before Peter ever cast the hook, God had already prepared the fish. And what … you think God doesn’t care about the little details of your life? He cares where your hook lands. He directs which fish bites your hook. He orchestrates it all in such ordinary ways you may have missed it before. You miss it until he adds a little extra to it. Do you need God to add a little extra today so you know it’s really him? Do you need to see his fingerprints so you know he’s really working in the details of your life? Girl, ask him! Ask him for a glimpse of his extraordinary power today. I bet he’s done it for you before. I bet you’ve been in the right place at the right time. I bet you were enabled to speak words you didn’t know you had. I bet you had supernatural strength just when it was needed. I bet you’ve reached into your pocket and found forgotten money. How absolutely extraordinary!!!! It’s already happening for you!!!!! I wonder what else God will do for you and through you if you will keep showing up, doing the ordinary things you do, but do it as a committed partnership with him? What will he divinely align for your catch? What will he miraculously provide when you try again? God already knows what you need. Before Peter ever reached the shore, the fish was already swimming with provision in its mouth. Before you ever prayed, God was already preparing an answer. Before you knew the need was coming, Heaven was already in motion. But putting the hook in the water is still your call. Yes, get up early. Yes, show up again. Yes, you make that phone call. Yes, you do the ordinary work again. Do the ordinary thing God has placed in front of you and trust him to add his extra. Because remember this – one ordinary act of obedience with Jesus can become absolutely extraordinary.
