On the other end, many people think a relationship will fix all of their problems and it rarely does. If anything, it can often bring more problems. If you are single or just out of a relationship why not take some time and work on yourself? When you find solace and strength in being alone, and you start loving yourself again, you will be a much better place to be in a relationship again. Go out and conquer your day and week.

Don't wait for them to call you. You can reach out. If they care about you they will take the time.  Create time for reflection. Dig deep and find out who you are and what your purpose and why are. Start Journaling. There is something powerful about the written word - Your written words! Practice Mindfulness. This helps tremendously. You can meditate, practice breathing techniques. We have so many options available to us today. It might be difficult at first but you will get better.  Go out and conquer your day - Until next time. www.cjevolution.com Patrick

Welcome back to Microcast Monday. Short bursts of inspiration and motivation to ger you started for your week. Thank you all for the support and please share the show with family and friends.  Special thanks to all the brave men and women who serve and protect. Remember you are honored, cherished and loved.

Reach out today at 303.960.9819. https://fherehab.com/ https://www.cjevolution.com/shatterproof/ This Monday, I want you to stop doing this if you are: STOP CHASING PEOPLE. If people care about you they will want to spend time with you. Learn to be happy and content with yourself first. This starts with knowing what you want out of life. Your happiness will not come from someone else. It has to be internal first. Learn to say NO to people. People who you never hear from seem to appear out of nowhere when they want something from you. Get rid of these people. They are using you. Chasing after people implies that you value their presence more than your own self-worth. Go out and conquer you day and please be safe. A great guest in coming on this week. www.cjevolution.com Patrick

You need strength for every hard task that you want to accomplish. I am not just talking about physical strength either. I am talking about grit, determination and fortitude. Something that some of you have lost along the way. If you want to improve ANYTHING in your life it takes strength.  And believe it or not, YOU HAVE IT INSIDE OF YOU. You are a first responder. You can accomplish anything. You do what most can't and don't want to. Go out and conquer your day. www.cjevolution.com Patrick

Maybe its for alcohol or drugs, maybe it's for mental health. There is a good chance it's for both. Never give up the fight. There is no end date either. You will always be fighting for your sobriety and healthy mental health. The sooner you accept this the better chance you have of success.  I have bad days, but my good days eclipse my bad days because I will never give up. You shouldn't either too. You deserve to be health and happy.  Always remember that. www.cjevolution.com Patrick

However, I want you to take a step back for a moment and realize people who are struggling are human too. People who are struggling might be struggling with the same challenges you have been or are.  I really believe that people who are struggling share many commonalities. So, before you start judging people I want you to view as people that need your help. And I also want you to remember that you might be, or probably are, dealing with your own challenges.  The only difference is you had some opportunities and they probably didn't.  Go out and do good in the world, and please be safe.   www.cjevolution.com   Patrick

While this might scare you, it is very therapeutic and it can also help so many people. My next guest is doing just that. Retired SGT Mark DiBona is helping so many first responders by sharing his struggles, and how he overcame them. He came close to taking his own life twice during his 33-year law enforcement career. His diagnoses of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, and anxiety nearly ended his career. On his road to recovery, Mark was and is still very open about the struggles he encountered and the lack of support he received. Mark shares how he personally found strength to step away from the precipice and what the rest of us can do to help.  A great and powerful interview.   Find Mark here: https://bravo748.com/mark-dibona https://thinblueconnect.com/mark-dibona  https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-dibona-a017585/    Stay tuned for more great episodes www.cjevolution.com   Patrick

Are you constantly thinking about work? You need to step away from the job when you are off.  The extra money you make in OT will NEVER take the place of time spent with your family and kids. Trust me. I learned this the hard way. Start prioritizing the PEOPLE in your life, instead of the stuff you want. Balance your life out.

This could be family or it could be friends. Ask yourself are they helping or hindering. If they do not bring any value to your life and make you strive for greatness then it's time to leave them behind.  Now this might sound harsh, but it's necessary for your overall health and wellbeing. Don't be afraid to move on from people who are negative, toxic and complain all the time. They LOVE company. Take charge of your inner circle and watch how your attitude changes for the better. www.cjevolution.com Patrick
