Join Coaches Mike and Paul as they delve into the crucial mindset of starting from zero in any area of life…health, wealth, fitness, career, and family. They share impactful advice on setting realistic expectations, embracing the beginning, and focusing on consistent progress over perfection. Learn how to cultivate the "Balanced Warrior" mentality to be the high achiever you can be proud of! Key Highlights & Advice: Every Master Was Once a Disaster: Emphasizing that everyone, regardless of their current success, started at the beginning. Grandmasters were once white belts.

Reverse Engineering Goals: Start with the long-term vision but break it down into smaller, manageable steps with clear metrics and timelines. Attacking the Day: Shift from merely "trusting the process" to actively attacking the day with focused action steps that contribute to your goals. Winning the Day: Focus on identifying and achieving 3 key action steps in your core areas of life (business/production, health/fitness, relationships/family) to feel a sense of accomplishment and build confidence. Consistency Over Special Talent: Recognizing that long-term success often stems from consistent effort and habits rather than innate abilities. Tailored Coaching: The importance of a coach that provides the right kind of motivation and accountability, whether it's a firm push or gentle encouragement. And a ton more advice! Join the Balanced Warriors and learn how to achieve progress in all areas of your life.  

Carla White didn't set out to be a tech pioneer—but that's exactly what happened. In this episode, Carla shares how her viral Gratitude Journal app led to a full-blown reinvention: from coach to founder of Hero.fm, a platform helping women monetize their knowledge with audio.   We dig into the messy middle—what it's like being a woman in male-dominated tech, the emotional toll of trying to prove yourself, and why perfection is the enemy of progress. If you've ever second-guessed launching something, Carla's story will remind you that done is better than perfect—and your voice is more powerful than you think.

Let's celebrate the progress we've made, no matter how small, and continue moving forward with grace and determination!

In this episode of the Modern Man Podcast, host Ted engages with high-performance coach Adam Smith, who shares insights on personal development, the pursuit of potential, and the internal blocks that high achievers face. They discuss the importance of progress over perfection, the role of beliefs and standards in achieving success, and the necessity of stillness in a fast-paced world. Adam emphasizes that purpose is not something to be found but created through action and progress, and he highlights the common struggle of feeling 'not good enough' among men, particularly in high-pressure environments. TakeawaysThe pursuit of potential is a continuous journey.Progress equals happiness, not destination.Many men feel they are not good enough.Purpose is something we create, not find.The 'when and then' mentality hinders action.High achievers often struggle with internal blocks.Beliefs shape our actions and results.Discipline is key to high performance.Standards determine the quality of our work.Stillness allows for powerful action and reflection. Meditation can feel uncomfortable due to the overwhelming number of thoughts we have.We often avoid pain rather than seeking pleasure, which affects our perception of experiences.Being fully present can help us appreciate the world around us.Stillness is essential for achieving inner peace and calm.Many people feel they are 'doing it wrong' regarding mindfulness practices.Compartmentalization can lead to chaos in different areas of life.Success can be redefined to include joy and fulfillment, not just achievement.The cost of unchecked ambition can be high, including divorce and mental health issues.Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.You don't have to hit rock bottom to initiate change in your life.Chapters 00:18 - Introduction to the Modern Man Podcast 01:17 - Adam Smith: The High Performance Coach 02:16 - The Pursuit of Potential 04:13 - Understanding Purpose and Progress 07:07 - The 'When and Then' Mentality 09:18 - Internal Blocks for High Achievers 12:07 - The Role of Beliefs and Standards 15:24 - Discipline and High Performance 20:14 - The Importance of Stillness 23:59 - The Challenge of Meditation and Mindfulness 27:31 - The Importance of Stillness for Inner Peace 30:10 - Compartmentalization and Its Impact on Life 35:43 - The High Cost of Unchecked Ambition 38:56 - Redefining Success: Finding Joy and PurposeSmith's Links Website:agameconsultancy.comLinkedIn: Adam SmithInstagram: agameconsultancyFacebook: agameconsultancyPodcast: agameunfilteredFree eBook Here: Mastering Self-Development: Strategies of the New Masculine: https://rebrand.ly/m2ebook ⚔️JOIN THE NOBLE KNIGHTS MASTERMIND⚔️https://themodernmanpodcast.com/thenobleknights

Send us a textReagan Saffel from Odessa College joins host Yanni for a heartfelt conversation about navigating life's disappointments and finding unexpected blessings along the way. What begins as a casual chat quickly evolves into a profound exploration of purpose, perspective, and personal growth.When rejection hit Reagan hard—missing out on promotions and failing to get into physical therapy school—she found herself in a mental health struggle that many listeners will recognize. The turning point came unexpectedly during a supervisor meeting when her college president shared three simple words that would become her life motto: "Trust the process." This wisdom transformed her approach to setbacks, helping her recognize that closed doors often protect us from paths not meant for us.The conversation delves into how mental health intertwines with our daily choices—from establishing consistent gym routines to carefully selecting who we allow into our inner circle. Reagan's secondary motto, "Progress, not perfection," reveals her journey away from crippling perfectionism toward a healthier perspective that embraces growth over flawlessness.What makes this episode particularly powerful is Reagan's vulnerability about her struggles and the practical wisdom she offers. Whether discussing the impact of positive music on mindset, the importance of self-reflection, or the courage to share our stories, her insights feel both accessible and profound. The discussion about setting boundaries while maintaining a servant's heart will resonate deeply with anyone who finds themselves constantly pouring into others while neglecting their own wellbeing.Reagan's commitment to "walking the walk" in all areas of life offers an inspiring example of authentic leadership and genuine relationships. By the end of this conversation, listeners will find themselves equipped with practical strategies for navigating disappointment, protecting their mental health, and embracing their unique purpose.Don't miss the beautiful reminder that there's only one you—that's your superpower—and someone needs to hear your story.

How to turn latent motivation into fuel for change.If you want to be a changemaker, you'll have to convince others to join your cause. But according to Dan Heath, persuading your audience isn't about creating new motivation — it's about leveraging the motivation that's already there.“The most important fuel for any change effort is motivation,” says Heath, the number-one New York Times bestselling author of Reset: How to Change What's Not Working. Instead of struggling to persuade people to want what you want, Heath suggests finding where your goals overlap with the things they already desire. "Before you even get to persuasion, if you can just tap and unleash the energy that's already there, you've already catapulted yourself toward success,” he says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Heath and host Matt Abrahams explore how to create more compelling communication using “leverage points,” or as Heath says, “where a little bit of effort yields a disproportionate return.” Whether getting buy-in from one teammate or achieving change across an entire organization, Heath shares practical tips for turning latent motivation into an engine for change.Get more done with Grammarly.

Podcast Episode Summary: The Light Inside Host: Jeffrey BeseckerGuest: Patrick Boylan, Actor, Musician, and Musical Educator In this episode of The Light Inside, we explore the concept of mastery through the lens of learning to play an instrument, specifically the piano. Our guest, Patrick Boylan, shares his journey from a traditional piano student to an innovative educator and founder of Museflow, an educational startup designed to help musicians learn the piano more effectively. Key Discussion Points: The Neuroscience of Adaptive Learning Progress, Passion, and Persistence: We delve into how these elements are crucial for mastering any skill. Embracing Failure: Patrick emphasizes the importance of viewing failure as a friend rather than a foe, and how this mindset can lead to transformational growth. Patrick Boylan's Journey Early Struggles: Patrick recounts his initial struggles with traditional piano lessons, which he found boring and ineffective due to his ADHD. Innovative Learning: He discovered a more engaging way to learn by improvising around musical phrases he enjoyed, which later inspired the development of Museflow. Museflow: Revolutionizing Piano Learning Gamification and Variation: Museflow uses gamification to capture the "aha" moments of learning, making the process more engaging and less intimidating. Immediate Feedback: The app provides instant feedback, emphasizing progress over perfection and using positive reinforcement to encourage learners. Adaptive Learning: Museflow allows users to adjust the complexity and tempo of their practice, ensuring they remain in the optimal learning zone. Overcoming Fear and Performance Anxiety Emotional Regulation: We discuss how fear can limit learning and how techniques like mindful breathing and reframing mistakes can transform fear into motivation. Positive Reinforcement: Patrick highlights the importance of positive reinforcement in combating the fear of failure, both in the app and in real-life learning scenarios. Personal Insights and Practical Tips Patrick's Techniques: Patrick shares his personal strategies for managing performance anxiety, including positive self-talk and physical exercise. Host's Experience: Jeffrey shares his own experiences with performance anxiety in various contexts, emphasizing the importance of grace and vulnerability. Broader Implications Educational Philosophy: The episode touches on the broader implications of adaptive learning and positive reinforcement in education, advocating for a shift away from traditional, rote memorization methods. Join us as we uncover how the principles of adaptive learning and emotional regulation can help us not only master an instrument but also navigate life's challenges with resilience and joy.

In this episode, we dive into the .300 mindset. One that I think many of you will resonate with. We over strive for perfection as humans or these all-or-nothing mentalities. This mindset helps us reset our expectations, especially in such a long, hard, and nonliear process like ACL rehab. It also dives into how playing the long game allows to better find this .300 vs. expecting it right off the bat (see what I did there?)Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

As you close out one chapter and step boldly into the next, take a moment to reflect, recharge, and realign with the person you aspire to be. Through small, intentional habits—like honoring your sleep, hydrating before caffeine, and practicing gratitude—you can create a foundation for lasting change. Embrace your uniqueness, trust your path, and remember: the small shifts you make today will lead to monumental changes tomorrow. Start now, set your intention, and nourish your body, mind, and spirit for the year ahead. You are enough, and you are ready to grow. Key Takeaways: Recognizing "A, B, and C days" can help balance wellness goals with life's demands—on "A days," focus on comprehensive self-care, while on "C days," stick to non-negotiables like hydration and gratitude. The Body Talk form is a powerful tool for self-awareness, guiding you to understand your body's signals and uncover areas needing attention, such as digestion, sleep, or stress. Rotating greens in your diet prevents overexposure to specific compounds and optimizes digestive health—an easy, impactful change to fuel your body. The power of a word of the year can anchor your intentions and growth; reflecting on themes like "patience," "grace," or "embrace" can guide personal and relational transformations. Wellness isn't about perfection but progress; averaging more “good days” than “challenging ones” builds a sustainable foundation for health and happiness.   Connect with Dr. Michelle and Bayleigh at: https://smallchangesbigshifts.com hello@smallchangesbigshifts.com https://www.linkedin.com/company/smallchangesbigshifts https://www.facebook.com/SmallChangesBigShifts https://www.instagram.com/smallchangesbigshiftsco   Thanks for listening!

You've got to give new things a go and not give up when you're a bit crap at first. Team GB Olympic rower Helen Glover is clear that a huge part of her success is thanks to her mindset that it's better to try and fail than not try at all. In this chat with Fearne, Helen explains how to have the discipline to stick at stuff that feels important to you, even if it doesn't always feel easy. By her own admission, Helen “couldn't have been further from an Olympian” when she started training... At Tokyo 2020, Helen was the first mum to represent Great Britain in rowing at an Olympic Games. She's passionate about pushing back on the perception that age or parenthood should be a barrier in anything you're trying to achieve. She and Fearne unpick the narrative that says women probably won't be all that ambitious once they've had kids! Plus, what's the weirdest place you've found yourself breastfeeding in? Fearne and Helen share theirs... If you liked this episode of Happy Place, you might also like: Molly McCann Leah Williamson Adele Roberts Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
