Aside from mentorship, most people want a certification. How do you infuse the mindset where certification is laid into it but highlights education as the main driver? Marco Sanchez is a Gym Owner, Performance Coach, Personal Trainer, Licensed Massage Therapist, Under Armour Brand Influencer, Educator, and Consultant. Marco has dedicated his life to enhancing his clients' performance and well-being through sports and functional training. As a coach, trainer, therapist, educator, and innovator, Marco is one of the industry's most dynamic and prominent young figures.  From 2009-2019, Marco was a Senior Coach at Mike Boyle Strength and Conditioning, where he contributed to the foremost innovation in functional training theory and programming under the tutelage of one of the most acclaimed figures in sports training. Additionally, Marco served as the Clinic Director at Movement As Medicine, the official Massage and Movement therapy extension at Boyle's facility. From 2014-2019, Marco was a Senior Educator for the Certified Functional Strength Coach. Marco was part of developing an advanced trainer and coaching education course. He was blessed to teach over 2000 coaches, trainers, and therapists in over 20 countries. Marco also spent the 2013-2014 season as a Strength and Conditioning Coach for the San Jose Sharks, heading up their American League affiliate in Worcester, MA. In this episode, Marco shares the parallelism of Hockey to business and personal life. How it has shaped him as a husband, father, business person, and friend is something we can all learn from, especially where commitment is concerned. How he has developed that belief of having that unshakeable commitment in anything that you put your heart and mind into is what we will uncover. He only has high regard for Mike Boyle which he had the privilege of working with for many years and to which the values and mindset he considers of utmost importance, he is now imbibing as his own. Let's dig in more lessons Marco took away from his dealings with Mike Boyle as he has influenced him in a big way, not to mention, as he would admit that his strongest relationships were formed while with him. When it comes to the matter of certification that most everyone wants, Marco shares how they work around having that but underscoring the education part. Find out what made him and how he opened his own space amid the pandemic, and how COVID has poured in great things for him, though not to take lightly what terrible cost it has done to many lives. Check out his thoughts on where the fitness industry would go after COVID in terms of in-person and online training. With the many blessings and opportunities coming his way, he thinks of ways to give back and shares what his ways are of doing them. "What we want to do is raise the industry standard of coaches and trainers and bring them up to a level that we find to be acceptable. Because I think we all can agree that the fitness industry has a very low barrier for entry, it's very easy to get laid off from your job."  - Marco Sanchez What you will learn from this episode: 03:39 - How Marco came to love Hockey and how it became his lifestyle ever since 06:44 - What his role was on the team and how it evolved into making lasting friendships 09:00 - Skate out song that always got him all fired up 10:21 - How has Hockey shaped him into a father, husband, business person, and friend? 13:22 - What for him is the ultimate form of commitment 14:33 - How he got into strength and conditioning training 19:48 - Mike Boyle's influence on him 26:00 - How the opportunity came about to work with the San Jose Sharks 31:04 - On being hungry for success 36:44 - More than just the certification, more on continuing education 42:26 - How he transitioned to opening his own space right in the middle of the pandemic 47:27 - Important thoughts from him on where the fitness industry is headed after COVID 54:25 - What happens when you're blessed with a lot of experiences and opportunities Connect with Marco Sanchez: coachmarcosanchez.com Connect with Gavin McHale maverickcoachingacademy.ca LinkedIn Instagram

Sir Marco Robinson; Bestselling Author, Award-Winning Entrepreneur, Philanthropist, Prime Time TV Star, Business Tycoon, and Speaker. Today’s Episode Summary: After achieving success in anything, have you ever asked yourself "what would be my next achievement"? If you haven't then you should better ask yourself this question because success is not a "once in a lifetime" kind of thing, it is a process that should continue with your life. My today's guest, Marco Robinson, is someone who kept achieving success again and again and did not stop himself on his very first success considering it “once and for all”. Marco Robinson has a very impressive and long list of achievements but behind his successful life, there is a very difficult and challenging childhood. When he was 2 years old, Marco’s mother left Marco’s father and decided to go back to her family because Marco’s father was involved in gambling and had blown away her entire money. When Marco’s mother went back to her family, along with little Marco, her step-father thrown her out of the house and refused to shelter them. Afterward, the homeless mother and son started struggling for their survival, and meanwhile, his mother got married to a person who later on turned into a violent person. In this abusive environment Marco grew up as a traumatized and shy person, and then at the age of 15 an incident happened in Marco’s life that gave him courage to stand up against all odds of his life. Marco wanted to change his life and wanted to achieve success so badly that he worked tirelessly to build himself and his business. Determined Marco started the journey from being a salesperson and with few years, with the help of a mentor, he changed his density forever and set himself on the path of achievements one after another.  Marco says that his mentor gave him a book on sales called “bring out the magic in your mind” by Al Koran which proved as a real game-changer in his sales career.  Afterward, he built a strong reputation and received countless job opportunities from everywhere in the world. He was offered to run a public company in Malaysia which he accepted and started working in Malaysia. A few months later economy of Malaysia collapsed but regardless of that he turned this ordinary Malaysian company into a billion-dollar company. Then another sequence of achievements began in his life; he started his own company that went successful, he wrote a book that became the best selling, he started his TV show "Get a House for Free” on Channel 4 TV Station in the UK (where he gives houses away to the homeless and underprivileged people). He also made a movie "Legacy of Lies” that stood 4th on NETFLIX and also won 19 awards and TEN for the best feature film of 2020. He was also given the honorary title “knighthood” for helping the blinds in Malaysia to be allowed to keep guide-dogs in public places (that was not allowed in Malaysia before). This initiative started with a successful short documentary "Are You Blind" that attracted over 15 million viewers on Youtube and facebook. This documentary opened many new doors of opportunities for him and he also attracted a lot of fame and attention from the world. Now, keeping pandemic in perspective, Marco has started mentoring people to start their online business; whether it is an eCommerce store, social media agency, or their own course. He has also created a course for actors and filmmakers who are struggling to get to the NETFLIX and a bigger screen. Marco is renewing his success again and again with every new era and setting an amazing example for the world. To know how he achieved so many things in life, tune in and listen to this successful life podcast.

Golden Nuggets from Episode: “You can do, what want you want to do; no matter what color you are, what language you speak, who you are in relationship with.

If you don’t then you’re just one of the crowds! If you want to be disruptive, if you want to be different, if you want to be more successful than everybody else in your field then you have to stand out in some shape form or fashion.” –Corey Berrier   Marco Robinson’s Book & Social Media Handles: Book: Close the Deal and Suddenly Grow Rich! by Marco Robinson Instagram:  @marcorobinsonnow https://www.instagram.com/marcorobinsonnow/   Corey Berrier’s Website & Social Media Handles: Website: https://salesceo.co/ Facebook:  @Corey Berrier https://www.facebook.com/corey.berrier Instagram:  @coreyberrier https://www.instagram.com/coreyberrier/ @successfullifepodcast https://www.instagram.com/successfullifepodcast/ Twitter: @ successfullifepodcast https://twitter.com/success40324744 Linkedin:  Corey Berrier- Successful Life Podcast https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreysalescoach/ YouTube: Successful Life Podcast https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrPl4lUyKV7hZxoTksQDsyg/featured

You want to catch a bit of that momentum. And I’m not saying speculate and, and chase after appreciation, I’m saying, have the cashflow and the rate of return right from the get-go.” – Marco Santarelli “I was under the belief that if you buy a rental property, you should hold it forever and never sell that property. That works. There’s nothing wrong with it. It’s one strategy. But there are also other strategies in real estate. There’s just a tremendous amount of flexibility in how you can create wealth and make money in real estate.” – Marco Santarelli “The importance of the neighborhood is critically important. In fact, I would go as far as saying that you can mitigate most of your risk in investing in real estate by investing in the right neighborhoods. It’s not so much the market as a whole, that’s a macroeconomic perspective and where you invest.” – Marco Santarelli Connect with Marco Santarelli: noradarealestate.com passiverealestateinvesting.com Facebook LinkedIn Twitter Connect with Dave Dubeau: Property Profits Podcast www.davedubeau.com www.investorattractiondemo.com Facebook LinkedIn Enjoyed the Podcast?

This week's guest might look familiar to you if you have been following the show for a while, or even just a week...  Marco Dapkey should look familiar to you because his story of overcoming acute lymphoblastic leukemia was featured in episode 73 and 74 almost exactly a year ago. Last week, in episode 127 the focus of our conversation surrounded the idea of "EARNING YOUR INTENSITY."    A lot has happened in the last year including Marco's first individual CrossFit Regionals appearance where he finished 28/40! He also opened his own gym (CrossFit MFP) in that last year, which we discuss in depth in this week's episode.  I can't take credit for the title of this episode.  Paul Rabil, who is arguably the best lacrosse player in the world, coined the term "Duality of the Modern Athlete" on his own podcast, which is called "Suiting Up."  Suiting up is a show that explores the psychology, playbook of tools, and strategies of the most influential people in sports, entertainment and business.  A topic that Paul frequently covers is the trend in elite level athletes having endeavors, passions and pursuits outside of their sports.  If you enjoy my podcast you, will love Paul's too.  He has had some incredible guests on his show including Bill Belichick, Drew Brees, Gary Vaynerchuk and Tiki Barber, just to name a few.  In this episode of the podcast, Marco and I do our own version of the Suiting Up podcast. Is it possible to be an elite competitor on an off the field? I'd say yes after learning about how Marco was able to qualify for the 2018 CrossFit Regionals, which is the second year in a row he has accomplished this feat, AND start his own business at the same time!  Below is a list of other talking points we cover during the interview: This episode was recorded in the gym that was barely even an idea last year. Marco didn’t think business when is came to having his own gym How it all started at “Dap’s Gym.” Why sales experience in other gyms turned him off to that business style. How Marco learned from always observing from a business perspective wherever he was. The limitations of being an employee. Mom always told him that he needs to do what makes him happy. How an internship at Villanova University sparked his entrepreneur on fire. How Marco's experience with overcoming cancer gave hims the courage to chase his dreams. “I LOOK AT GETTING SICK AS AN OPPORTUNITY.” The process of creating the business plan for the gym. Working at lululemon and the importance they placed on goal setting for their employees. The role of relationships when starting a business. Having a plan A B and C. Asking people for advice who have already done what you want to achieve. Coming up with a name and logo. “WHAT IF IT FAILS?” Why people close to him fear for him. Marco’s weaknesses as an entrepreneur and how he accounts for those weaknesses. Why you have to earn your intensity in business too! Finding balance while competing at the highest level of your sport and owing a business – quality over quantity. The culture Marco wants to create in his gym. “POSITIVE VIBES ONLY.” WHERE CAN YOU CONNECT WITH MARCO? WEBSITE | INSTAGRAM | FACEBOOK Download Episode 128 : iTunes | Stitcher

He also opened his own gym (CrossFit MFP) in that last year, which we discuss in depth in next week's episode.  The focus of our conversation surrounds the idea of "EARNING YOUR INTENSITY."  This is a concepts that resonates with me because in sports and in life, if you bite off more than you can chew, bad things usually happen.  In my case I ended up hurting my knee, because I didn't put in the time and work to balance myself out.  Below you will find a list of talking points we cover throughout the episode and videos of exercises you can add into your workout routine to earn your intensity.     EARNING YOUR INTENSITY : LANDMINE PRESS     EARNING YOUR INTENSITY : DOUBLE RACKED KB LATERAL SQUAT     EARNING YOUR INTENSITY : HALF KNEELING ANTI-ROTATIONAL HOLD Marco brings us up to speed on what happened in the last year. Being happy to be there vs. being there to compete (at regionals). Lessons learned from last years regionals. The importance of a warm up and what happens if you are too cool for school… Half time warm up tips. Dealing with the intimidation of competing against some of the CrossFit superstars. Trusting the process while earning your intensity. “MANY STEPS OVER LONG STRIDES.” What is intensity? Maximizing your workouts with intensity. Being efficient with your movement and being engaged both physically and mentally. The importance of working on your weaknesses. Why enough is never enough? and how to respect your limits. How Marco is approaching the programming for his high school football players. “YOU CANT REALLY ACHIEVE TRUE INTENSITY IF YOU DON’T HAVE QUALITY MOVEMENT.” When to push and when to pull back - listening to your body. The importance of variability in your movements to achieve balance. Why you sometimes have to move slow to get fast. Landmine press explanation ( video above ). Anti rotational core (video above).

If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping in a closed room with a mosquito. Making a lasting, positive impact in the world is not a result of throwing money indiscriminately at problems. It’s about a focused, calculated investment of resources guided by sustainable principles. Every person, whatever their means, has the potential to enact positive change. But how do they find their niche? Meet Marco Nannini, CEO of Impact Hub and and senior advisor to Fabrique, social innovation incubators based in Milan, Italy. With 20 years experience in management consulting, start-ups, and investing, Marco is helping us rethink the dynamic balance between philanthropy, economics, and socio-environmental sustainability.   In this episode: + The fundamental difference between a conventional and a high-impact business is not in the way they operate; it's in where they place their values. + Why the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" philosophy should be questioned when it comes to sustainable business. + How Marco’s past experience in the telecom industry got him thinking about energy use and ultimately sustainable business. + How being coherent about your business's underlying values will help you avoid the mistake of sacrificing impact for the sake of cost. + Two-for-one: How a popular shoe company thought outside of the box (literally), simultaneously cutting costs and reducing waste. + Why high ROI and high impact are no longer mutually exclusive in the venture capital market. + Where philanthropy falls short: why creating positive change in the world is as much about empowerment as it is about giving. + Marco’s personal inspiration: sailor Ellen MacArthur, who opened our eyes to marine plastic pollution and championed the idea of a circular economy.

Continuing his ongoing podcast series with SearchSAP, Jon Reed interviews Marco ten Vaanholt, Global Director of the SAP BPX Community, for a compelling look at the changing SAP skill set and what it takes to become a "Business Process Expert." During the podcast, Marco describes his work with the SAP BPX community, and how BPX is working collectively to help define the skill set that SAP professionals will need to stay relevant on both the functional and technical side. Jon asked Marco to be on this podcast because during TechEd 2007, Marco's presentation on becoming an SAP Business Process Expert (BPE) provided the most practical "next steps" for how an SAP consultant can evolve their skills that Jon had yet seen. Marco came through on this podcast with an excellent overview of how the SAP market is changing, how BPX is supporting the SAP skills transition, and what consultants can do to keep their skills in line with the market. By the time the podcast is over, there is a clearer sense of how the SAP professional of today can involve themselves in the BPX community, honing their own skills while also contributing to SAP's product evolution. In this thirty-one minute interview, hosted by Jon Franke of SearchSAP, Jon and Marco talk about the following points: - How Marco got involved with SAP and how he wound up in his current role as the Global Director of the BPX community. - The origins of the SAP BPX community in 2006, and how it has achieved phenomenal growth (200,000 + members) through a grassroots approach to community building. Marco also shares the vision of BPX, the emergence of the industry forums, and the "horizontal and vertical" areas of BPX built around SAP's Business Suite, core ERP, and GRC products. - Marco explains why the BPX community has been so compelling to SAP professionals, by tapping into their desire to evolve into BPE (Business Process Expert) consultants and be better prepared for the eSOA era. - Marco also describes how the collaborative BPX community has also helped SAP partners reduce the "cost of ownership" around educating their consultants about eSOA. SAP customers have also turned to SAP BPX to help support their employees working on the SAP "Business Process Platform." - The SAP BPX community also influences SAP through its product management cycle. Marco explains how the SAP BPX world can serve as a feedback channel to SAP and also support the launch of new product initiatives going forward. - Jon asks Marco about the importance of the Business Process Expert (BPE), and why this person is going to be so important to the SAP implementations of the future. Marco shares the BPX community definition of the BPE: "This business process expert has both the business knowledge and IT savvy to make business process innovation happen in real time, by adapting, composing and executing business processes, using best practices, composition software, and enterprise services." - Marco explains that while there are many different definitions of BPEs, they most commonly describe themselves as having "one foot in IT, and one foot in business." Marco highlights the range of job roles that fit in under the Business Process Expert "umbrella role." - Jon brings up one of the most riveting aspects of Marco's TechEd presentation on becoming a BPE: the argument that both ABAP jobs and core functional configuration jobs are going to go away. Marco clarifies this point, and reframes the discussion to step back from the "shock value" of Jon's statement. Marco explains that ABAP and configuration jobs are not going to go away, but that it's important for all SAP professionals to acquire composition skills, especially technical consultants. - Marco talks about the evolving SAP Composition Environment (CE) and why both technical and functional SAP professionals will want to get experience with the CE going forward. He also hones in on the importance of "soft skills" and provides concrete examples of the types of "soft skills" that will be crucial, including industry expertise. - Marco emphasizes the importance of process modeling skills, and he mentions some of the modeling tools of today (Visio, Visual Composer, ARIS for NetWeaver) and tomorrow that both technical and functional SAP folks will want to get a handle on. - Jon and Marco agree that the "alarmist" view that the current SAP job roles are going away is not the right mindset. The right attitude is to make a commitment to transforming your skill set along with SAP. - Marco talks about other key skills of the "BPXer," including Business Process Management (BPM) methodology know-how and BPM tools like Six Sigma. He tells us why Web 2.0 and community-building skills are so important for the BPE, using blogging, wikis, and collaborative forums to "evangelize" your solutions throughout a global project. - Jon and Marco talk about how SAP professionals now have access to free resources to self-education. Since cost for training is not a barrier, it's more of a mindset shift: (1) getting access to new SAP technical information, and (2) joining communities like BPX to share "best practices" and lessons learned. - Marco makes some distinctions between sharing processes at "process level zero" versus "process level three," and why there is a difference between collaborating on "commoditized processes" versus working on more "disruptive" or strategic (level three) areas. This latter type of collaboration would likely take place in a closed area and shared with the broader community as appropriate. - Jon asks Marco about how today's "SAP functional configuration expert" and "SAP application consultant" of the present needs to evolve to become a BPE. Marco explains how the CE and other Business Process Platform modeling tools will change the relationship between functional and technical teams. He also talks about eSOA, and how, alongside the Enterprise Architect, the functional specialist will be working with SAP eSOA resources like the Enterprise Services Repository.   - Jon Franke asks Marco about how to improve your soft skills, and Marco gives a "big picture" response that starts with how you carry yourself on client sites and work with executives and project teams, and goes on to include various areas of formal and informal education such as organizational change management, process modeling tools, Web 2.0 technologies, and Enterprise SOA. - Jon tries to put Marco on the spot by asking him to explain how the "disruptive innovation" he is advocating can exist alongside of SAP's customer message of "innovation without disruption." Marco explains that there is not a contradiction because the kind of innovation he is advocating takes place in a closed environment that does not involve disrupting the transactional system. - Marco also explains that the distinction between commodity processes and strategic processes comes into play when understanding the cycle of disruptive innovation. He uses the example of Nike's product rollouts and the cycle of innovation in the mobile technology space to describe the difference. - Marco issues a formal invitation for all listeners to get involved with the SAP BPX community. There is a robust "getting started" area to get new members involved quickly with the issues and projects that the BPX community is tackling. Marco also highlights the SAP upgrades area within SAP BPX as a great resource for project teams. - Jon wraps the podcast by talking about the shifting trends in SAP employment, and how it's easy to end this podcast because the next step is to sign up with SAP BPX and get further involved in your SAP skills transformation.
