Welcome Back to the "I won't keep quiet" series! Crystal Williams opened the Career Prosperity Prayer Call with worship and welcomed attendees to "mic drop Monday, Motivation Monday," acknowledging National Career Development Month and the need to "futureproof your career" by focusing on faith during times of uncertainty, continuing the "I Won't Keep Quiet" series to encourage attendees to declare the goodness of God. Williams shared a personal experience from "The Boy is Mine Tour" to illustrate the importance of putting on "spiritual spectacles" and "spiritual ears" and derived spiritual revelation from song titles to encourage attendees about God's ability to heal and change their status. Williams discussed the concept of being "God's referral," meaning being "positively recommended or endorsed by God" through a life of integrity, diligence, and faithfulness, and referenced Acts 2:1-4 and 1 Corinthians 7:17 to support the idea of career elevation and generational blessings before concluding with a prayer and encouragement to "go forth and conquer."

I found an awesome post from Aaron Babicz '93 (@DETROITCCAD) who is the Athletic Director at my high school Novi Detroit Catholic Central. He shared this post after our football team won the State Championship here in Michigan.  He titled this  “ALWAYS CLIMBING”, and it describes this quote - “How Lucky We Are To Wake Up And Try Again.” First of all there are plenty of people that didn't get to wake up today. The same will happen tomorrow and every day.  What are you always climbing towards? This is way more than athletics (as much of sports is = Life Lessons). What do we get to try again with today? I know there are plenty for me to choose from, with gratitude that I get to look to work on today. Love this reminder! Take it to heart and see where you can connect with what @inkyjohnson reminds us too. “What fulfills me?” Powerful question to tie into what we get to do (choose to do) each and every day!!  Stay fired up my friends!  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.

On this week's Motivation Monday, we're discussing what voices are worth listening to, and which you need to tune out.

I found a great reminder for all of us when it comes to creating something special in our life and the fact that there are tons of distractions out there that we need to filter through. From Jon Gordon (@JonGordon11) he shares this thought from his book “The Carpenter” - “To create something special you have to care more about what you are creating than the distractions vying for your attention.”  Well, seeing that there are tons of distractions for all of us in our world today - I wanted to get this out there so we can start to maybe find ways to focus on what we want more than we focus on those distractions. For me, it's always challenging, but I'm working toward getting better with this. 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 was listening to Mitch Albom's “Tuesday People” Podcast (@wetuesdaypeople) and you can find the recent episode - click on:  “The Words We Wished We'd Spoken” (Episode 242) and he was sharing some thoughts that he has gotten from many people on his book tour for “Twice”. His new book is another homerun for him and I would agree with so many others that have read it. It's one you will get you thinking about your life and the changes you can make in it. One of many things he brings up in this podcast is the fact that we do have time to tell people in our life that we love them or that we are sorry. It's been the overwhelming response by people to getting a second chance at something in life. Mitch reminds us that we have 525,600 minutes in a year and that saying we love someone or apologizing to someone, can be done in a minute (for the most part). Don't put these things off my friends.  Talk about motivation!!

In dieser Episode geht es darum, warum echte Disziplin genau dort beginnt, wo unsere Lust endet. Wir sprechen darüber, weshalb Motivation unzuverlässig ist, wie Athleten Disziplin wie einen Muskel trainieren und warum kleine Entscheidungen im Alltag weit mehr zählen als große Vorsätze. Du erfährst, wie du deinen eigenen „Ich will nicht“-Moment erkennst, gezielt nutzt und dadurch lernst, dich selbst zu führen. Eine Folge für alle, die weniger Ausreden und mehr innere Stärke wollen.

On this week's Motivation Monday, we're discussing agism and why your dreams don't depend on your age.

This was the post that I spoke about from Friday's show and it comes from Greg Berge (@gb1121) where he shares his video from an NBA legend, Doug Collins.  “Too many kids today are afraid of failure.” Doug Collins reminds us that “Failure isn't the end. It's the lesson. It's how you grow, learn, and get tougher. Every champion has failed; they just refused to stay there.”  Now of course it hits differently hearing the clip instead of me just talking about it or reading the quotes.  The big motivating factor from this lesson is that since we all fail, every single one of us, many times a day - this should fire us up to see the opportunities we have to grow, learn, improve, etc., every single day!  I know that I need to hear this lesson again as I tend to forget the chances I have to really improve myself and my life, whenever failure hits. Another big truth… This is not just for kids.  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.

In dieser inspirierenden Rede wird die Metapher einer Wiese verwendet, um die Unsicherheit und Unklarheit in unseren Entscheidungen zu verdeutlichen. Der Sprecher ermutigt dazu, sich auf das zu konzentrieren, was wir wirklich wollen, anstatt auf das, was wir vermeiden möchten. Durch positive Ausrichtung und das Formulieren von Wünschen können wir Klarheit gewinnen und Wege sichtbar machen, die uns zu einem erfüllteren Leben führen. takeaways Unser Gehirn benötigt klare Ziele, um sich zu orientieren. Vermeidung führt zu Unsicherheit, während positive Ausrichtung Klarheit schafft. Wünsche sind Wegweiser, keine Forderungen. Erschaffen ist ein Prozess des Wachstums, nicht des Kampfes. Es ist wichtig, Raum für unsere Wünsche zu schaffen. Positive Bilder helfen, negative Gedanken zu verdrängen. Wir sollten uns auf das konzentrieren, was wir wollen, nicht auf das, was wir fürchten. Wachstum erfordert Geduld und Selbstvertrauen. Die innere Stimme kann uns leiten, wenn wir ihr Raum geben. Klarheit in unseren Wünschen kann den Nebel der Unsicherheit lichten.

Found an eye-opening post from Mind Essentials (@Mind_Essentials) where a quote from Denzel Washington was shared that said this: “Always be thankful for the bad things in life. They open your eyes to see the good things you weren't paying attention to before.”  Again, it's not that I want bad things to happen to me just so I can learn lessons. It's a reminder to have my eyes open more often than just when bad things happen. It's how I respond when things get tossed at me and remember gratitude is something to have all the time.

I saw something recently that gave me a motivational lift along with a reminder too. This comes from UpSkillYourLife (@UpSkillYourLife) and it's this: “Forget your age. If you have dreams to achieve, you are still young.” I do have dreams to achieve - still!!  I also think of my current age and I am reminded through this post and other things, that yes I am still young. I'm still that 15 year old boy that I was 44 years ago with dreams and thoughts of a future that I could not touch yet. Well, that future has been here and is now my present. As long as I have dreams to work toward, all the ages I have been in my life are here to help me keep going after things.  The longer I let this thought simmer, the more emotional I get. Part of it also is that I'm in the middle of reading Mitch Albom's new book “Twice” which just came out recently.  I'll share more from the book in my next podcast. I still have dreams and I still can work towards them, no matter what my age is today! That's true for all of us. Just keep working towards them - little steps or big ones, doesn't matter. Just keep 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.

On today's Motivation Monday episode, Pamela Jett reveals research showing that the happiest people in organizations aren't lucky — they're intentional. Drawing on the Foster & Hicks study, she explains how these “spark” people consciously choose happiness each morning, use the brain's most receptive hour for positive programming, and build resilience despite life's challenges. Her message: happiness isn't accidental — it's a daily decision.Source: Breakthrough: Overcoming Obstacles and Breaking Barriers in Business and Life Hosted by Sean CroxtonFollow me on InstagramSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I was listening to a podcast from “The Burn Podcast” by Ben Newman where he was having a fabulous conversation with Inky Johnson —  the same Inky that I keep leaning on in so many of my episodes. Listen to it HERE.  We are reminded about Inky's career-ending injury and how it changed his entire life.  This helped to remind me how humility, discipline (it's been a recurring lesson lately), focus and he speaks about having a strong faith where he transformed pain into purpose. I love the connection to his pain, setbacks, problems and obstacles reminds him (and all of us)  why it's important to remember that success comes from action, not just words. The idea of “reframing suffering into meaning” comes up in this amazing conversation between these two GIANT difference-makers. They shared how they are viewing their suffering, adversity, problems, etc., as growing into a powerful strength in their lives.

Gary and Shannon close out the show with a packed final hour. Shannon's still pushing for Gary to celebrate the show's 10-year anniversary with a piercing before diving into #WhatsHappening: from TMZ leaking footage of Mark Sanchez's altercation to Dodgers playoff updates, Ghislaine Maxwell's denied appeal, Taylor Swift's record-breaking box-office weekend, and Governor Newsom facing pressure to crack down on SoCal's copper thefts.Then it's #GaSFantasy4Play as the pair review their NFL week 5 picks before pivoting to weather updates on Tropical Storm Jerry and rescue efforts for 200 hikers stranded on Mount Everest. They wrap the hour with a #MotivationMonday clip from Friday Night Lights and an intriguing discussion on “quiet cracking” the new counterpart to quiet quitting.

As if I needed another rule to follow. This one is something you will want to connect with I think and it's not that difficult to understand. From Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) where this is shared:  “The Rule of 100 - If you spend 100 hours a year in any discipline, (which is only 18 minutes a day), you'll be better than 95% of the world in that discipline. Consistency is everything.”  This is something that anyone can connect to any discipline or more than one discipline. Just think of the great things you can do, not to say your #1, but to make a difference with others. To have a service, product, idea, etc., that can help others - just because you had the faith and effort to have consistency in doing what lights you up! The world needs this - more people to share the things that light that spark within 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.

Gary and Shannon close out the show with #WhatsHappening, catching you up on the big stories including the tragic shooting at the Mormon temple in Michigan, Mayor Eric Adams ending his re-election bid, and flight trackers spotting fleets of U.S. Air Tankers crossing the Atlantic. The crew dives into Week 4 of the NFL with their #GaSFantasy4Play, then it's time for #MotivationMonday as Gary shares a DIY fence project that brought surprising satisfaction. To wrap things up, #MixtapeMonday makes a comeback with reactions to Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show announcement and updates on Dolly Parton pressing pause on her tour for personal health reasons.

Found this post that is connected to The Ryder Cup (currently going on at the time of this recording - the USA team has a lot of work to do to get closer to the European team.)  But this clip came from DAILY HOVI (@dailyhovi) - where Viktor Hovland says about his plans to  just laugh off comments from the crowd while playing the match in New York City (notorious for the jeering of visiting opponents) because they can't be worse than his own thoughts that he has going on in his head. This clip from Viktor is so powerful as it simply is not just about golf, but more importantly about life. Side note: Europe did win the Ryder Cup.

Leaning on this guy a lot lately and his message today is one that all of us can make a personal connection with.  It comes from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) and he shares these thoughts about the quote he connects this with. Mark's thoughts are: “A message for today … Success isn't always instant or visible. It's built in the quiet hours, when no one is watching. Every bit of effort, every act of dedication adds up. Even when recognition seems distant, keep showing up—your breakthrough is closer than you think.”  There are so many things that we are doing in life that don't get noticed by others. Remember, that's not what we are looking for. What we are looking for, I think, is that WE notice the little things we are doing AND we understand that we just need to keep working on them, keep doing them, keep learning new things to help us to keep going. Also remember that when we keep at the things, the habits, we keep getting better. To me, that is success. You being at your best means you are able to make a difference for others. When we are not working to be our best - we are not able to help others that much.  Keep working on ourselves my friends. Keep bringing the effort, the thought, the energy, etc., each and every day. That is success 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 found a couple of posts that gave me this idea to put these two powerful things together.  First from Dear Self (@Dearme2_) where it was shared that “Consistency looks like nothing is happening, until everything changes. Awesome piece to hold onto and to keep being consistent every day we can. The second piece came from Psyche Wizard (@PsycheWizard), who I have connected with many times before and today's message was this:  “Discipline will carry you to places motivation can't.” These two connections to our success are there for us to connect to and make a part of our own success formula!  Make them your own!! Keep at it! Don't give up! Don't give into the crud happening in the world today!!  Oh… sorry… those things were directed at me.

On this week's motivation monday, we're discussing how to step into a place of authority in your life.

Powerful lessons from a coach of a bigtime rival of my high school. But this man, Coach Al Fracassa was an indirect difference maker for me through others that he connected with during his long journey at Brother Rice High School (@BroRiceWarriors). Big shout out to my friend Matt and his wife Jennifer and to Dr. Joe DiPonio too! Check out this link HERE for a bit more about Coach Al Fracassa. The message here is to simply find the lessons from people like Coach (those people with their lessons are all around us) and find what you can put in your tool belt to be a difference maker for others in your own way. The world is crying for people to have real leadership skills to help others! Here is the link to my post from 11 years ago too.

I found this post that really made a connection with me as this is really for everyone. I shared it out there on Twitter / X and I mentioned that this “shoe fits for everyone” as we are all Champions!! It comes from Greg Berge (@gb1121) and the quote is:  "If you really want to be a game changer out there, be a master observer." - Peyton Manning   He goes on to connect that “Champions don't just play the game; they study it. Observation creates anticipation. Anticipation creates advantage.”  No matter what we do in life and who we are doing it with - we want to become Champions. This one got me fired up for the bigger picture it represents for all of us.  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.

Success isn't just about what you do—it's about what you stop doing. In this episode of Next Level Minds, I break down the most common habits that hold people back from reaching their goals. From procrastination and negative self-talk to poor routines and lack of discipline, these habits quietly sabotage growth and momentum. More importantly, I share practical strategies on how to recognize, cut, and replace these habits with the ones that actually move you forward. If you've been feeling stuck—or know you're capable of more but can't seem to get out of your own way—this episode is for you. Subscribe to the Next Level Minds newsletter here!

I saw this post and of course I've seen it before, but this time it's voice was a little louder when I came across it. This came from Gratitude HQ (@gratefuledu64) -  “The ‘ripple effect' means that #KindnessMatters ! A single act of kindness, like offering help to someone, can inspire that person to be kind to others, creating a chain of positive interactions. WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!”  This thought that all of us can tap into goes along with this post - “I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.” ~ Mother Teresa.  In a world where action is needed to help others and make a difference with all of the injustices going on around us, we all can “cast a stone” of kindness, empathy, love, speaking up, reaching out to others to share thoughts and ideas, along with making sure we keep investing in ourselves to be our best selves. Just like the previous podcast - if we keep “our lamps lit”, it helps our journey and also the journeys of those around us. Making a difference for ourselves and others, should be something we all strive for.  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.
