If you've experienced this… I want you to to know the #1 reason you're not getting results from my 40 years experience, and most of all from the most recent comments, DMs and group conversations we have. Said 100% with respect to us all… but we have failed to commit to any one. While we're complaining about the abundance of overwhelming and often conflicting information, we fail to realize it's us who continues to let it in.  Not saying that we should stop trying to learn or gain knowledge. You know I share summits with you from time to time. I share experts with you right here regularly who challenge your thinking. And I hosted a summit myself - one of the primary goals of that was to clarify for you the information and to probe guests for clarity wherever I sensed there could be confusion for you.  But if we keep letting ourselves stay stuck collecting data, we're procrastinating on changing anything.  You ARE choosing. You're choosing to stay stuck. You won't “accidentally” find your best path to health. You'll need to get a bit organized and choose what to take action on now, what you might take action on later, and what you're just throwing out because you've tried it, tested it and you know it doesn't work for you. This episode is to help you get out of your own way.  You're Not Getting Fitness Results? Keep Reading The only way I can do this episode is because I live it too. We can in any area of our lives sit in the middle of the room staring at the piles of things to be organized and picked up, put away, given away … and not know where to start and so never do. That, I believe may be hoarding.  In 2013 I quit. I quit my job on January 16. I was going to start paying college tuition in August. I had to put my house for sale in November. In tears in early December instead of putting up Christmas decorations I was taking down every picture carefully placed and planned from my walls because the realtor said a new buyer needs to be able to imagine their things on the wall.  For the entire first year of that new start I didn't have a clear step-by-step. Very few had done this before, few if any had created an online fitness site exclusively for women in menopause without any technical background or knowledge in hiring someone I could trust who had one.  It wasn't until year two, when I got a vision of what steps mattered most, what could wait and be tested later, that I started to be able to pay my own bills again instead of borrowing off of the sale of my home.  If you aren't at a “it has to work” place, you may not commit. I was all in. There was no net. If you've had cancer, if you've had a virus so scary it made you wonder… then you know. You commit. You do everything and focus on just the important things and other things fall off the radar.  You may need to do this for yourself. Take this podcast as your wake-up call. Trust me… you don't want to be pawning jewelry, or selling homes, asking relatives for a loan… or having to choose chemo or not… but we often do wait for a diagnosis. Decide right now if you will or you won't.  If you think it's inconvenient to eat differently than others in your house, if you think it's just too hard not to have a drink or 3 every night, and you're committed to that way of thinking, this may not be your episode. I may not be your girl.  A stale, overused and very appropriate on-point term: choose your hard.  The Number #1 Reason You're Not Getting Fitness Results…  You are not committing to one thing consistently for long enough to test it and only it. It's not all your fault. You hear high protein is necessary to build muscle for successful active aging.  You learn that the quality of essential amino acids in animal protein is higher per calorie than that of plant protein.  You hear that fasting is good for longevity due to autophagy.  Yet, you've heard the term low energy availability and identify with the concept of slowing down your metabolism because by eating less you will cause the body to breakdown muscle (especially while exercising more) and signal the body to burn less energy.  Often the #1 reason you're not getting fitness results is because you're not trying one thing at a time and committing to it. The problem? Isn't really an abundance of information. It's feeling a sense of urgency that really isn't there. Yes, it's important you make progress this YEAR, but it doesn't have to today. You can choose. Test it. And you can choose again.  The Reason you're not getting fitness results:  You are honing in on ONE thing that you hear, not necessarily the most important thing, and doing it at the omission of some important details.  For instance, all the experts whether they favor plant-based protein earlier in life Agree that at 60 or 65 high quality animal protein is a must for muscle synthesis to avoid sarcopenia resulting in frailty and falls. Experts who were not long ago suggesting fasted exercise who now are more in tune with maintaining and gaining lean muscle mass and bone density are all about fed exercise.  Yet, they do observe and recommend fasting. But what length? Should you do a 24 hour fast? Should you do 20 ? Even 18? How about we try 12-14 regularly first and stop snacking between meals and instead actually have meals.  Stop skipping, skimping or eating a “protein bar” pretending it is full of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals the way a plate of food or even a smoothie will all the goodness of greens and healthy fats and light fruits and fiber.  What to Do When You're Not Getting Results If you're stuck between animal or plant protein… How much muscle do you have? Compare that to last year and the year before that. Don't have those measures? Get them started now. Because if you're nearly 60 like me, you're knocking on the door of muscle losses that accelerate to 1-2% a year unless we're doing the right things to avoid it. If you don't know for sure what the right things are, write down your choices. Because you sure DO know what is confusing and conflicting. Let's just agree that we have to stop complaining about being confused. We have to start taking responsibility for the information, for making choices, taking action and then being okay with making a new choice if it doesn't work. But no one is going to get “data” from an experiment of starting one thing and then not really doing it. The worst possible answer to a question, “How did it go with the magnesium this week?” or “What happened when you introduced dairy this week?” is… well it worked okay when I remembered or I had it a couple times but didn't notice anything.  These are NOT following the process for adding magnesium or re-introducing dairy, respectively.  When a client says, “I don't feel any better this week and I haven't lost weight” and then in reflection, 50% of the time she committed to what we agreed on and the rest of the time didn't, we can't expect to get results. What we have is data:  That it isn't urgent or important enough to matter She isn't committed to the changes she agreed to Take Action If You're Not Getting Fitness Results What I suggest is that you choose: Choose ONE thing to take action on.  Plot your plan ALL the way through.  Choose the next thing you might choose after you see this one through. Before you start anything MEASURE: Weight. Body fat %, and girth measurements. Record your subjective ratings of sleep, energy, libido, brain clarity, digestion.  Take 3-4 weeks at least to commit. Spend a little time deciding how you might have to tweak this experiment. Will you need to start smaller than your original goal? Will you be able to begin right away?  July 4 started walking 30 minutes a day. I might also strength training or do interval training. But I was walking before 8am every day. Some days I had to do it later because I missed it earlier. But I kept that promise. Some days I hiked and it was a longer walk.  A couple days it was chilly and rainy and I did indoor “walking.” Other days still I have had a hard time getting in a solid 30 but got 10 minutes in three times. But I stuck with it. What happened after 90 days? I'm hooked as I have been 3 other times in my life, body composition improved. Tone and definition and mood improved.  You can always move on. Choose the next. But do it.. Documenting. Do what you said you'd do consistently. Make sequential changes or tweaks if required. (With introduction of magnesium or with Betaine HCL, for instance). Don't just throw it out completely. Is it timing? Have you tried shorter instead of longer, tried it in the morning instead of at night?   No idea? Get a coach. Have an assessment. I can help you derive a plan if you're committed to changing once you've got one. Got this?  Please let us know if this was valuable! AND share it! If it's been helpful for you it will be for another woman too.  Resources:  Ultimate Assessment https://www.flippingfifty.com/store/coaching-programs/private-coaching-90-min/ Coming up!

The #1 Reason You’re Not Growing 1 Peter 1:23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. (NIV) 1 John 3:9 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God. (NIV) Galatians 5:16–23 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. (NIV) 9 Characteristics Of The Fruit Of The Spirit 1. Love: 2. Joy: 3. Peace: 4. Patience: 5. Kindness: 6. Goodness: Luke 6:27 “But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, (NIV) Titus 2:14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. (NIV) Romans 12:21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. (NIV) Ephesians 2:10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. (NIV) 7. Faithfulness 1 Corinthians 4:2 Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found faithful. (ESV) Revelation 2:10 Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you life as your victor’s crown. (NIV) Matthew 25:21 The master was full of praise. ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities. Let’s celebrate together”. (NLT) 8. Gentleness  Matthew 11:29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. (NIV) Ephesians 4:2 Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. (NIV) 2 Corinthians 10:1 By the humility and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you—I, Paul, who am “timid” when face to face with you, but “bold” toward you when away! (NIV) Philippians 4:5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. (NIV) Titus 3:2 to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate, and always to be gentle toward everyone (NIV) 9. Self-Control 2 Timothy 1:7 for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control. (ESV) Titus 2:11–12 For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. 12 It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, (NIV) 1 Peter 4:7 The end of all things is at hand; therefore be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers. (ESV) John 15:1-10 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. 5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. 9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. (NIV) 1 Peter 1:14 So you must live as God’s obedient children. Don’t slip back into your old ways of living to satisfy your own desires. You didn’t know any better then. (NLT) 9 Ways To Remain So Your Fruit Grows 1. Remain in the word John 15:7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. (NIV) 2. Remain in prayer Colossians 4:2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. (NIV) 3. Remain in church Hebrews 10:25 And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near. (NLT) 4. Remain in small groups 5. Remain in serving 1 Peter 4:10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. (NIV) 6. Remain in generosity 1 Corinthians 16:2 On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with your income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made. (NIV) 7. Remain in the love of God John 15:9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. (NIV) 8. Remain in the pruning process John 15:1-2 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. (NIV) 9. Remain in obedience John 15:10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. (NIV)

We all experience challenges in life. For some, it's difficult to express their feelings and so they mask their hidden pain with substance abuse, anxiety, depression, isolation, or even violence. Matthew Quick understands that pain. Matthew experienced a “dark night of the soul” after using alcohol and drugs to treat his extreme anxiety and depression. He got sober in 2018, only to experience five years of crippling writer's block. Matthew talks about how he healed and what he learned. Matthew is the New York Times bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbook, which was made into an Oscar-winning film. His other books include, The Good Luck of Right Now, Love May Fail and The Reason You're Alive. The Hollywood Reporter has named Matthew one of Hollywood's 25 Most Powerful Authors. His new book is, We Are the Light.   Music: www.purple-planet.com Show site: www.cyacyl.com

We all experience challenges in life. For some, it's difficult to express their feelings and so they mask their hidden pain with substance abuse, anxiety, depression, isolation, or even violence. Matthew Quick understand that pain. Matthew experienced a “dark night of the soul” after using alcohol and drugs to treat his extreme anxiety and depression. He got sober in 2018, only to experience five years of crippling writer's block. Matthew talks about how he healed and what he learned. Matthew is the New York Times bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbook, which was made into an Oscar-winning film. His other books include, The Good Luck of Right Now, Love May Fail and The Reason You're Alive. The Hollywood Reporter has named Matthew one of Hollywood's 25 Most Powerful Authors. His new book is, We Are the Light.   Music: www.purple-planet.comShow site: www.cyacyl.com

EPISODE OVERVIEW: If you or someone you love suffers from eating disorders, bulimia, anorexia, any kind of mental illness on the food and fitness level this is a fantastic episode. This week, we're going to hear about a young woman who had an idyllic childhood. She had so much going for her. Athletic giftedness, a scholarship to be a prima ballerina at 14, and success at whatever she tried. Instead of a course of wellness and success though, her journey took he on the road of a blackout drunk as a teenager and goes on from there.In this remarkable episode she talks about how on the outside, everything looked perfect, but inside she had real issues she needed to work on. So in this hour you are not only going to hear how today's guest overcame bulimia and anorexia, but how we can too! So get your pen and paper ready, and welcome to the Missi Bantner story!GUEST BIO: My name is Missi Bantner. I'm a Master Fitness, Nutrition, & Neuro Therapist. I guide men and women through small group programs to heal their relationship with themselves by healing their relationship with food and fitness. Every one of us knows how to care for ourselves, but we've lost touch with the basic skills of listening to and understanding our body's needs for nourishment, movement, sleep, intellectual stimulation, connection, solitude and much more. This disconnect has impacted every area of our lives and all of our relationships. As a result we are more stressed, depressed and sicker than ever. My aim is to teach people how to become the expert of their own life, how to regain and optimize their health and how to meet their own needs for nourishment on all levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual so they can be the magnificent human they are called to be. EPISODE PROUDLY SPONSORED BY: Ascend 2 Glory: Sales & Marketing Video Guide SHOW NOTES, GUEST CONTACT INFO, SPECIAL OFFERS, & OTHER RESOURCES MENTIONED:Guest Contact Info:Website: https://www.livewholelifehealth.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/livewholelifehealth/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100009487453443Guest Special Offer(s):Yes.

Who knew that spirituality is The Reason You're Successful I know, I know... I did an episode saying it is not the reason. So what is the nonsense about? Well, you are just going to have to watch it to find out, aren't you. How does spirituality relate to the inner game? What do I need to do in order to get to my goal? I go into why you are walking backwards when you are looking at the external world. We talk energy, science n shit. Who you need to be in order to have success. I say the word bucket about 50 times. I dive into control vs rebellion and how that relates to spirituality and success. Maybe this podcast is the key to linking spirituality and success in your life.

Have you ever thought that you could become a better version of yourself? Do you feel that you’re capable of way more than you’re doing? You’re doing a lot, but nothing seems to work out. People like living the same monotonous life and choose mediocrity every day. But you realize you can do way more and are capable of achieving greater heights? Here’s the hard truth: you need to set rules for yourself and believe that you can do it. In this episode, Rick Thompson talks about his book and how he helps people become the best versions of themselves. He discusses the subconscious mind and how important it is to accept things and envision the future. Tune in to this episode to learn more about bringing the best out of you and setting rules and goals to be glorious.  Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Understand the different ways your subconscious mind works and learn it to put it to the best use.  Discover the importance of setting rules and believing in what you can do. Learn the significance of goals and envision the best for yourself.  Episode Highlights [01:10] Gifts of God You’re given everything. All you have to do is accept. Rick talks about the first half of his book and talks about how our thoughts put imagery in the world and have the energy to co-create. Rick shares his story of being in heaven with a huge box. He continues by talking about how he got where he is today. Rick shares his experience of losing his wife and how he learned to cherish things. [08:08] Envisioning and Searching He continues to talk about how he dealt with his life’s demise and found a vision and a mission. If you put thought and effort into something, you can achieve it.  The future is what we believe it to be. If you want something special, you have got to believe in it, in such a way that it exists for you. [14:23] The Subconscious mind  You have got to release and get rid of the negative energy. The things that are made for you will come to you. It’s about flowing with the river but paddling gently in the right direction.  You have to put thought and energy into life when you are contemptuous.  Rick talks about his life after his wife passed away and wanted to find a motive and was looking for contempt.  Someone thought of the world, and it was created because everything is a wave until it is created. [18:53] Managing and Exploring Life You don’t gotta go to work; you get to go to work. You don’t gotta get up; you get to get up. Rick talks about how everyone is in a different arena and helps them open up to it to gain everything possible. If we help each other become better, the world becomes a better place one step at a time. [21:24] Imparting Knowledge and Setting Rules Rick talks about his children and grandchildren and how he works on imparting knowledge to them. If you have focused thinking while doing something, you will get good results. You need to have a specific set of achievable rules, bring you happiness, and be realistic. If you are miserable, it’s because your rules don’t align with your life.  Words are compelling.

And, Rick, thanks for being on the show today. Rick Thompson 1:01 Thanks for having me. It's always an honor and pleasure to share with others, Brandon Handley 1:05 our present so I love to start this off with the whole idea that you know, your god man, that, you know, we are we are vessels for the creative energies of flow through the universe, and that you and I are connecting through this medium through this amplification through the podcast, with at least one specific person that's going to catch a message that can only be delivered through you today. In this instance, true source. What does that messager Rick Thompson 1:35 well, that you're given everything and all you have to do is accept? Unknown Speaker 1:42 Yeah, well, Brandon Handley 1:42 I mean, let's expand on that, right? I mean, I mean, I think that's gonna be a big part of the conversation, where, you know, if I'm out there, and I'm like, Hey, man, I want everything How come was not here? Rick Thompson 1:55 Well, that's what the book comes, I go through, you know, the first part of my book really tells the physics behind it, until cell particle doesn't really become a particle until it's observed. So through many of the things like, they have this water crystal, that when they put positive energy on it, it turns to beautiful crystals. And when you put negative energy on it, and they have these different tests, even with the plant, they can kind of do these things and measure that reaction. So our thoughts in itself put energy into the world. And we have the power to So speak cocreate, because our energy is creating part of the world in front of us, you know, there's all these other things that have been created before or by others, but we have the ability with our energy to kind of trade what we want. And to me, I have a story I like to tell, can is, puts this perspective helped me to learn that when you go to heaven with you is a giant golden box. And on that box is your name. And you get up there and you see it and go, Wow, this box is beautiful. And I wonder what's in it and finding us what's in this box. And they says, Well, normally we don't tell people what's in the box. But you ask, and it's your box. So they open it up. And in it is all the gifts that God gave you that you did not accept. And so, you know, it's the truth that like the sunshine shining on your world, given everything, we just have to accept the gifts that he gives us. All of this go around telling us how unworthy we are and how we don't deserve and when smart enough. And you know, that's just the negative or whatever power, you want to call it on the other side, kind of drag a spout away from all the beautiful things that life has given us and makes possible for us. Brandon Handley 3:39 Now love that. So you've got you've got quite a quite a few things in there. I heard that story heard you tell that story a little earlier. And I really enjoyed the first time I've heard it definitely, definitely made me you know, stop and pause and think about what gifts survive, you know, kind of rejected. And then you've also got the route that's the particle particles could be a wave or a particle, right until you observe it. Right? That's the that's the physics piece that you're talking to. And then you're also talking about Mr. He was a more a motto, right? The Japanese water experiment that was done. And I think that those are all awesome examples, right of physics. And then, you know, also the power of the mind. I think a question that comes to my mind is one of the same ones that I have for myself, like, what were some of the gifts that you were not receiving? That you recognize that that you actually had a gift for? I believe, I believe one of the stories I heard was that you were told that you were slow and that you had a learning disability and that you were a dreamer. But here you are today. You know being being this being this catalyst in the world that you are today. How did you how did you come upon that? Rick Thompson 4:52 like to say you live life, and it's for me, it's like what didn't happen overnight. But that's it. Child, you know, my father left me when I was very young, and I never saw him again. You know, my mom had to raise me and she did remarried, and she remarried a great kid guy. And, you know, you can say, that's the happiest day of, you know, my dad left, he gave me $1. And it made me really happy me and my sister both got a dog because dad can have any piece of candy. We're very young. And it's just, you know, it was so much to me as a little kid, that it was really excited. But that's also the last time I ever saw. So I remembered as a happy moment. But you know, it's kind of sad, because I never saw him again. So, to me, that's a gift. I was given a happy moment to remember my father by at the last moment, even though it's a breakout, and the things he went through and the suffering he had to do, because he wasn't there, I didn't have to suffer through I had a very good life. And because I was kind of feel rejected as a child, I think that's why I got branded kind of the way I did. But as I read and learned and grew, you know, I and I learned to understand what was going around me and realize that I wasn't. And I started applying those applications in life. Like, when I was in junior high, I decided I wanted to set a track record. And one of the things I did is I just envisioned it and said it. And I actually made bets with everybody the year before, saying that's what I was going to do. And the next year I did it, and Matter of fact, I did it way above what I had ever expected. And so kind of helped me to find that what you believe in, you can make happen. And I had a very, I had a great life, you know, I was married and had children's and a nice house. And I wasn't super rich, but I definitely wasn't poor. I lived what I would consider a good life. And that life was so good that it's like what do you do to make a better life, I was happy. I was loved. I lived where I wanted. But 10 years ago, my wife passed away. And when she passed away, it created this terrible pain. And of course, the question is always why God mean. And I dealt with that for a while and started searching the world out. And instead of complaining about what was taken from me, I found that it was more important to cherish what was given. Because my wife taught me how to love and be a really good man and taught me so much. And she was so kind and generous. And I don't know why things happen. But if I try to explain them, I just go crazy. But I do know, by changing my perspective from meaning me, why am I suffering to the gifts I got and what I can do for others, it allowed me to, you know, rebuild a new line to help others. And I do it in her name, kinda, you know, in her memory and her kindness and loving me, I help others and try to be the best man I can and just grow a little bit each day to be a better man. And those experiences are the kind of gifts that you know, when they happen, you think they're not a gift, but when you look back at him, and look at both sides, you know, through your entire life, they turn out a gift that really makes you the person you want today. Brandon Handley 8:24 So that's, you've got your gifts that you were given, right? I mean, you do you go all the way back to the last time you saw your father, you know, I kind of jotted down, you know, this would be a story, right? Where you asked for a penny and you got $1, right, you asked and you receive but like, you know, maximum amount. And how there's also you can look at that as a happy moment and and a sad moment, right. And then you have the other part that you talked about there was setting the track record and envisioning that what's kind of funny is a real similar story that and that's what's one of my anchor points to to kind of recognizing the achievements I was like, first or second grade, though, and I ended up being like the fastest kid right, but like just kind of coming back and envisioning that like seeing yourself doing it and living it right. And, and then, you know, you've also got like this kind of this life that you're living that you love, and how could it be any better and then and then your wife passes away. And that and that was like the you know, silence me to like, you know her again, listen to another one of your podcasts. I was like, No, she was true love to you. Right? That means a big big part of your life and you are in a you're in a lot of pain and I love this line. There's a person I listen to Sarah blonde and and she's got this. This meditation is called, you know, pain is a gateway to divine and it sounds kind of like it that's what it that's what it did for you. It opened up a pathway to the divine for you. Is that what you were searching for? right because you said you kind of went out there searching. You were your why God me And were you searching for like, why are you in pain were you searching for? What was it you were searching for? In that moment? I'm just curious enough. Rick Thompson 10:10 I was kind of searching is why am I hearing? What should I do? If I'm going to, you know, wrong to hurt yourself? So I can't do that, because that would be a sin. In my rules anyway. And then, so I say, Well, if I'm gonna be here, then why? And what can I do to make it what you want, but you need what there is for me and the world. And so that's kind of why I wrote the book, because I wrote some books. So I hope I can get other people to realize that if you put the thought and effort towards what you want, you can achieve it. You know, we're all given everything to me. And if you put the action and the proper thought towards it, you will be given those things. I know, when I started doing it, after my wife passed away, I believe that will just give me everything. I, you know, work and my brain chemistry. And, you know, when I had that positive attitude, and I really protection for us, and it's just like, whatever any kind of showed up. So I felt very blessed. Today, I feel extremely blessed. Right, this very building, it's not like, there is a more, but it's not like, I don't have enough you. Brandon Handley 11:28 Right? I mean, you get to you get to a great point. You know, but again, to so it looks like looks like sounds like what it was like, you know, why am I here? Right? What you're searching for meaning, you know, I mean to, you know, Man's Search for Meaning Viktor Frankl, right? Like, what are you? You're searching, right? You know, what, if you're going to take away the things that the, you know, what was making my life so great, then why am I here and kind of searching for purpose is kind of what I'm hearing. And then you're talking about, you know, the idea of, you know, kind of thinking and taking action. But what about the effort and effort doesn't have to be like this extreme effort to have to really try superduper hard and like all my waking hours does that need to be? Is that how we get things? Or how, you know, what is your recommendation in regards to that? Rick Thompson 12:19 Well, I think it's more, there's a conscious mind and its subconscious mind. And the conscious mind thinks, and it can think about stuff, but it takes a ton of energy and your body's chance to physically try to reduce energy. So it will use everything in the lower levels again, so you, they tell you, like 10% of your brain, you only use 10% in your brain. But the truth is, you're only using 10% of it consciously, you're using 90% of it, subconsciously. So what really creates a future for us is what we totally believe. And it kind of says in the Bible, what you believe in as if it's already happened, will be yours. So that belief is a subconscious belief, not a conscious belief. It's when you automatically throw the football and it goes through where you want, you didn't think about it, it just happened. And the same thing goes for things you want in your life. If you want something special, or you you got to believe in it in such a way that it exists for you. You can see it in people that have been successful. It's like, Man, that guy just goes through life, he doesn't put any effort into it. And it just all happens for him. That's the way it needs to work. Because if you believe 1% subconscious, then you're putting very little energy into it. But if you're thinking about it and trying to force it, then it doesn't really come to you. So that's why people say, I put all this thought and energy into it. But you just can't pound it in you got to kind of like, be in the wave and float with it. And it's got to come from a subconscious level not a conscious level. Brandon Handley 13:56 Yeah, and I've definitely seen this show up in my life. And I guess a couple questions I would have would be you know, do you feel like you are doing it? Or do you feel like the creation, the experience is happening through you and for you. And you know, just kind of curious on your take on that. Rick Thompson 14:18 I feel like it's happening, too. And for me, it's just you're going with the flow. I think that negative energy like bad thoughts are the things that hold you back. And the main thing you got to do is kind of forgive and get rid of the negative energy. And when you can just release and let go and you become part of the the universe the world whatever God however you want to describe it. Then it just flows with it and the things you're supposed to do and the things that are supposed to happen come to you and you have choice, kind of but you know you're kind of set for a path you're given powers and those ones that you enjoy are the ones you set to do your stuff. We are getting There's a choice between what we want to do. And when you're choosing the things that you're best at, you're the most happiest. So I feel like it's letting loose and accepting the flow of the river, but paddling gently in the right direction. Brandon Handley 15:21 So, you know, where do you feel like you first saw this happening for you in your life and began to accept it? Rick Thompson 15:31 Well, I thought at a younger age and started to accept it, but I saw it the most after my wife died, because I put more mental energy into it. One of the things I found that, you know, can't contentment, you don't have to put much thought into life, or energy into life if you're totally content. And when I was married, with my wife, and my family and kids eyes, I had a good job, I had a happy life I was loved. I was very content. And I didn't have any need to really find a change. But then when my wife died, I had pain and suffering, and I was not content. And through that, I put a lot of effort. And because I opened my eyes and looked more, I saw things I never saw before. Brandon Handley 16:20 Yeah, I mean, what what an example of the some of the things that you you saw that you weren't able to see before? Unknown Speaker 16:27 Well, Rick Thompson 16:30 I just went to other people, and I saw people able to do things, you know, I saw people that could, I saw a guy that could look at somebody's eyes and a picture and tell what they're thinking, I saw people that spiritually came up to me and talked to me about my wife, and I just traveled around and I read books, I started becoming more thirsty for knowledge, because I wanted to find what it was. So I read books, and I put them together and tried to see how they fit. And then I asked different questions like what makes a man happy and successful. And I looked at those, and when I saw them, you know, I saw the spirit, spiritual world kind of open up, or we're all connected, we're all connected. You know, through quantum physics, if you want to think like, somebody thought of the world, and it was created, because everything's a wave until it's graded. Well, the person is better the world and everything was God, he thought of it. And then he was all created. And they say, the world is created in seven days. If you stand on the event horizon, and look at the creation of the universe, it would look like seven days standing there at that point. So it is possible from his perspective, that the world was really created in seven days, in our perspective, it's not from his it could be and I just found things like that. And other people scientist, I, you know, we're interested in when they search and try to find, you know, what puts together universe they all end up turning to God, say, there's a creator that created everything. Brandon Handley 18:12 Right, the I love that perspective of, you know, kind of standing on event horizon and seeing, you know, in seven days, kind of everything being created, that's a really cool visual. Unknown Speaker 18:26 It's pretty cool visual. So Brandon Handley 18:27 when, you know, so you're in a steel cement business, right? You know, I don't hear too many people kind of getting into this, in the steel, cement business, you know, you're CEO of your business, and you know, how how, you know, encouraging your, your, and you're out there right to like, what I mean by that is, you're putting your books out there, you're talking about this stuff. I mean, so how is this showing up in your business? Rick Thompson 18:54 I meet several people that work for me, and I try to teach them those ways, and help them to look at the world differently. You know, one of the things I love to tell people each day is you don't got to go to work and get to go to work, you don't got to get up, you get to get out. You know, it's all a matter of perspective, how you look at it, I get to do everything I do all day long. I don't have to, if I truly didn't want to I can say I'm not going to do that. But I'm electing to so instead of saying I have to, I like to say I get to and I teach people those kind of things one step at a time and see where they're at in life and try to help them because everybody's in a different arena and try to open up the world to them. So they'll know that anything for them they want as possible. Brandon Handley 19:40 Have you had Have you had people you know and underneath kind of like your tutelage at the company, who've really been able to take to this and shine and really apply it. Rick Thompson 19:55 Well, I don't have a very big company, but I think they all take to it and shine with it a little bit. That's what I like to believe in my heart. You know, I always say it's hard to see your own cell. But what I see is people are taking it in their life to become better. I've had several people say that it has changed their life. So I'm very grateful I, like I said, you know, we help each other become better, and the world becomes a better place one step at a time. I'm not looking for any glory or anything, but I'd sure like to see the world become a better place each day, just like I'd like to grow a bit each day. And by helping others having a better attitude, you make the world better, and they help others and so on, and so on, and so on. And Brandon Handley 20:35 that's great deed and your, your, your children to write How many children do you have? Rick Thompson 20:41 I have? Well, I'm remarried. So I have to buy my first wife, and three by my second wife. So we have five children and four grandchildren. And my daughter has two and she has two. So I have my children. Brandon Handley 21:00 Uh, thanks for not making me do the math, uh, the the, you know, so the idea of really is as a parent, right now, as a grandparent, how are you trying to impart this to your children in such a way that I can tell you right, when I first kind of had some of these moments, and first had some realizations, I'm, you know, trying to stop it, and my, you know, my kids are kind of young, but like, just making sure that they're exposed to it. So that, to your point, right, that you don't have to wait till later in life. To learn this stuff, right? The sooner that you learn it, the sooner you can apply it, and hopefully, you know, how you don't have to suffer through some of the shenanigans? I did. Right? Or, you know, that's what we'd like to impart. Right? So have you know, what's it like sharing it with your children? And what are they? What are they? Unknown Speaker 21:51 What are they doing with it? Well, Rick Thompson 21:53 they're very grateful, they're good to me, I love my children, they love me back, I feel very grateful. They're using it to help their lifes grow, and envision what they wanted a life and have a great family and, you know, see what they would like to receive. The grandkids are at a young age, the way I work with them is I just spend time with them, I spend as much time with them as I can. And when I see the opportunity to teach them something and they're listening, then I try to grab hold of that opportunity. I don't go up and try to force them to go like, this is what you need to do. I wait for the challenges in life to come along. And then I make suggestions to them. Like, you could look at it this way or that way you have a choice, and try and teach them that they have a choice, because the truth is they do learn the most, and set the most rules from the age of one to seven. So we have an opportunity to really teach them very positive thinking processes at a younger age. And that's what I try to do is make sure they're not putting themselves down and saying they can't. One of the things is, you know, I have a grandson that's playing football right now. And, you know, we want to make sure to teach him that he's doing a good job. And he's not putting himself down for anything he does, you know, the thing you need to look at, did you put the effort and then you did great doesn't matter. You know, you did great if you put action towards it and proper thought. And the other thing I try to teach him is a lot of it can be thought because if you're thinking correctly, when you're doing stuff, you're gonna get a better results. So what are you thinking about why you're trying to accomplish your task. And these are the ways I go about it with stories, because I always say stories like the golden box, or other stories, our best way to impress people with different ideas. But the bottom line is I just want to have a happy life. And it's their choice, what they really decide. I just want to help guide them in the direction that will help them the most. Unknown Speaker 24:05 Yeah, Brandon Handley 24:05 and it's tough, right? Especially again, as a parent, and you just want them to take this stuff in and you just want to it's like if we could just like stick a USB, and stick into our head or something and be like, hey, you're going to need this later at some point, right? That'd be for, you know, skip over these chapters. You're not going to need these. But if we could do that, that'd be that'd be a lot of fun. You know, what would you mean, though, you said, you know, kind of proper thought and thinking correctly? What do you what do you say? And then when you say that, Rick Thompson 24:36 well, everybody has different rules. So you want to have good rules. You don't want to have rules that say, you know, I'm not smart, or I'm not able to be happy. Or maybe some of the rules I see that hurt people is like, my job is to make everybody happy. Well, that's an impossible goal. You can't make everyone happy. So you If you make your rules too complex in life, you're gonna fry pain and suffering about it. What you want to do is have rules like, you know, no matter who you are, I'm going to give you a smile, or I'm going to treat you with respect, I have control of that. So if my rules are like that, then I can control the world around me to a degree, people might be unhappy, or they might be sad, but it's not going to be my fault, because I didn't achieve it. So you just got to be careful with your rules in life and what you kind of set in on yourself, so that they're achievable. And they're realistic, and they're beneficial to you. Because most of the things that getting away are going to be our rules that we have about how life should be, you know, if you're miserable, is because your rules don't align with your life. And you can change them, if you want. That's the one thing we have control over. You can't change people, but you can definitely change your rules. Brandon Handley 25:55 So that's great. How do I align those two? Rick Thompson 25:59 Well, you, it's gonna be a little bit different for everybody, because we live different lives, and we're all different. But what you want to do is kind of feel in your heart and your soul what feels right. And when you have bad feelings. You want to say, Well, what caused? What caused me to feel icky about this or bad about that, because we all have those feelings. And then you check your rules out and say, okay, what's not in alignment that's making me feel that way? And what would I need to do to make that a good rule that it'd be enlightenment and would make me happy. And you review those rules, and then you would repeat them, like, whatever the new rule might be, just before you go to bed, or when you wake up, it just depends upon each person's individual, and what they really want out of life. And how they even define words. Because the words may mean something to somebody else when they say him than they do to you. But the I am words, I am this I am that are very powerful. If I am a good man, you will go out of your way to be a good man. That's what you say and believe. If you say I'm a bad man, you'll go out of your way to prove to people that's true, too. So those roles that we make for ourselves are very important to be in line with the happiness and the joy we want in life. Brandon Handley 27:18 Yeah, see, I can definitely relate to you know, you are what you say you are, right. I mean, you really are fine. If I look back, and oh, man, oh, Jeff, those misspent youth, right? If I look back at those misfit years, when when I was like, Oh, I'm this I am that and and you know, just kind of, and doing it unconsciously and becoming exactly what I said that I was at those points in time. And it's just unbelievable how, when you start making that choice consciously when you start saying who you are to yourself, and looking for evidence of that, right? I found that to be kind of the one of the pieces that is key here is to state who I am today, right? Who am I today? And that's like, whoever I want to be even in the future. I already am that right? So what are the pieces that or in the future necessary for that whole thing that I have right now to begin to build on that? I found that to be super, super potent for me. But one of the you got a couple things in here too. First, you know why? Why is I am? Like so powerful? Like just saying I am Dude, what would you say there? Rick Thompson 28:43 That's a good question. I'm not exactly sure why I am I just know through research that I am. Because your brain is your subconscious is really one liners. So I think part of it is because it's just a simple one line I am. So your subconscious knows what I am is and then it just connects. And it doesn't have to have logic or reason to connect. It just connects. So the I am statements or this is true statements, or how our subconscious is stacked. And then we use those bits of information to think with. So our conscious mind least allows us to analyze and lose us a lot of energy to decide what's good or bad, or change however we need to. But our subconscious mind is kind of like this deck of cards that's already pre stacked. And if you get that situation, that's what's going to happen. It's it knows these rules, and it's going to give you those answers as quickly as possible. Because to jump out of the way of a car. It's like you don't want to think about it. You just do it. And a lot of things in life are just like that. You don't really think about it, you do it and even some things are so well taught to us that we don't even realize we're doing when they happen you know you can be talking to somebody and get that funny look on your face or you say this Word, and it kind of offends them a little bit, but you didn't even know you're doing that you just do it. So when you get those hard feelings if you analyze them and kind of see what's going on, it helps you to adjust. I have a story about my daughter that kind of puts that in perspective is when she was very little. I was an ironworker. You know, iron workers are tougher than iron. At work, and I would take that home. And because I was loud and forceful, she said, Dad, you kind of scare me when you know. And she told me one time, and I said, Okay, and she told me, I never talked to our studio like that again. But I didn't know I was, it was just a habit, I brought home from work. I think a lot of us bring home habits from work and other things. You know, they kind of accomplish what you need at work, but they don't accomplish what you need out of life. Brandon Handley 30:52 Yeah, that's powerful. That's one of the things that I found to be the gift of having a child, right. Like, they always say that children are a blessing and a gift. And when you're changing diapers, you like that, you know, like how they are. And like, you know, you want a good night's sleep. And yeah, there's realize that here, but I found that they are just amazing at reflecting who you are right back to you without a filter without that without that world filter that says oh, you can't say that, right? Oh, you can't say that to a person. Right? That kind of thing. So I, I love I love the children for that. And and how they Rick Thompson 31:35 write they shine. You're right. But I love it too. They say exactly what you think, Brandon Handley 31:40 you know, sometimes it's not so great or Rick Thompson 31:41 chubby pop up. Unknown Speaker 31:46 And, and, and, Brandon Handley 31:47 and and they you know, they they will say what you say right? They'll talk how you talk and you'll hear them talk like you talking like oh my god, I sound like a jerk. Right? Or like, Oh, that's rough. I live really that rough. Because you know, you have that kind of influence on them. Especially like you said, that age like one through seven super impressionable. That's also, like you said that the kind of the age where you build some logic and reason. So what what is, I mean, we've got some of these logic and reason codes that had been imprinted. Like through that age one through seven. And then I don't know, we go through like 2020 plus years, maybe 30, maybe 40. If you're a late bloomer like myself, when you when you finally realize that, hey, you've, you've got all this logic and reason that you built up over the years, how do you how do you begin to, like, dismantle that. Rick Thompson 32:42 Or you'd like to say you want to see the things that make you feel bad, and listen to what other people say to and you want to review your rules, because it's a basically gets down to what did your subconscious really believe, you know, you can tell like, I'm going to be a millionaire. And your subconscious will tell you kind of like now. Now you're not ready yet. So you can feel inside what's really true, you know, and when, and when you get those in alignment, those feelings, you know, I'm going to do this or that and it feels right, then you're getting the right belief behind you, and you just reinforced those, as we get older, I think it's harder to change in, you know, that's why as a child, it's a gift to kind of help them teach so much because it does stay with them very easily through all their life. As we get older, we kind of reinforce it with you know, talking to herself, or, you know, I like to use music that sings good songs to you, that tells you the kind of stuff you're trying to think correctly. I pick out certain songs in the morning to listen to that will help you get started that just kind of put that thought into you, or you can use mantras, but the hard part is to sit down and say what are my rules? And do they serve me and the people around me? And if they do then they're good and if they don't then we'll Why don't you adjust them a little bit? Unknown Speaker 34:04 The Brandon Handley 34:08 good music? What do you know? Are you willing to share kind of what your your your morning wake up routine music is I mean, what gets you going? Rick Thompson 34:17 Well, I'm not really good with all the names but I have you know, I like pop and I like different music. I have a handful that ranges from you know, classic rock, country music, and I just look for things that say positive stuff. Like there you know the song This is going to be the best day of my life. Brandon Handley 34:37 Yeah, it's a great song. I liked it. That's Rick Thompson 34:39 a good song. I like that song because this is going to be the I think I like to wish people I hope this is the best day ever had and I hope tomorrow is the best they have every day because every day is the best day from here on in Godrej. Like, Brandon Handley 34:51 right, right. Hey, listen, I mean, so for years, a couple years they're not mine is COVID I go to jujitsu To write and and when new barriers How you doing? Do you have when you're getting ready to spar and like how are you doing? Like, best day in my life everything is call me to this moment, right? Like, I mean, this is the right now is the best moment of my life. It's all it's all built up to this moment. So any other good songs that you like? I mean, I know that for me, I literally just answered this question the other day, you know, KC, and the sunshine berry walking on sunshine, right? Yeah, that's the song that's like, I mean, we, when you hear that song, you gotta you have no choice. You got to, you got to smile, you got to be walking on sunshine, anything else you got, Rick Thompson 35:35 I got a ton of them. But I don't want to offend anybody. But you know, when I die, and I'm gonna go to the place, that's the best. Brandon Handley 35:41 Yeah, that's a Rick Thompson 35:43 champion. And, you know, I have a loved ones that I like, just, you know, what loves about and different things like that. I mean, I'd be interested from the audience, because I'm always looking for new songs, what they think are the best songs because I really think that starting your day, like that, or listen to that kind of stuff really makes an impact on your subconscious way of things. And so many songs have, you know, negative impact on them and stuff. Same as movies, so many movies can have, you know, very negative implications to them. So I'm looking for stuff to put that positive in positive thinking into your brain, so I can get that positive thinking out of my brain. Brandon Handley 36:27 So it's funny you say that because remember al gore Al Gore, Al Gore and tipper Gore, was it remember, they were trying to get like some of that, you know, all that, you know, not bad. I wouldn't call it bad music. But now I wouldn't listen to it. Right. Some of the some of the stuff that I listened to when I was younger, because of, of just how influential that is on our minds. Do you remember that? Like I do, I Rick Thompson 36:49 don't have to say about that. Because you know, they. There's good and bad in everything. It doesn't matter what it is? Yeah, you know, you have a choice. If you choose in those kinds of things, there must be a reason I don't judge because I haven't lived your life. But that's going to get back to what are your rules? To your rules say that you have to fight everybody that comes along? Or can you negotiate it? And yeah, like I said, I have not lived the life of the people and how they make the decisions, or why they like stuff. I just know, for me, that's what I prefer to have happy life. And that's what I would recommend others. But some of those tunes that are got some weird lyrics, and let's just say they got catchy tunes. Brandon Handley 37:41 Hey, listen, don't don't get me wrong. Like, there's still gonna be days when I still play some songs and stuff, right? And and it's interesting, because I don't listen to music quite as quite as much as I used to. And what will happen though, is that those lyrics will pop up in my head, like the next day or a few days later, I'm like, oh, wow, I you know, I haven't seen that in forever. But then I can also recall, just the last time I heard it, and just I'm so cognizant of what goes in now. And seeing it show up later, right, like literally planting that seed in my mind, and it shows up somewhere else later. And I think that's the kind of kind of what we're hearing to for you. I think another one I like to Rick is I can see clearly now. Right? That's a good one. I like that one. What about like, a couple mantras? Do you have the what's what's one or two matches that you find yourself using to help you stay positive, Rick Thompson 38:41 I like to use Have you heard of Ono Pono. Brandon Handley 38:44 I've heard of it, I have not delved deeply into it and want to tell us a little bit about what that is. Rick Thompson 38:48 So Ono, Pono is a like a Hawaiian chant. And there was this guy that went to a prison. And he was hired as the lead, you know, the director of the prison. And when he went there, it was a terrible place. And people were fighting and having all this trouble. And all he did in that prison was to take the people's pictures, and he would do this pair of them. I love you. Please forgive me. I'm sorry. Thank you. And he would do that in there. Because he felt like, you know, they he needed saving. By saving himself by asking for forgiveness, he's saving them and eventually that prison, you know, it got better and better until they actually shut it down. And so those are that's one of the things I like to do. You know, I think about all the little things I did wrong during the day or the things I said to people, and I'll pick those people out, and I'll do that at night. Or maybe right after I just did it wrong. And I just send that out now. I just think it makes a big difference. You know, it's a simple jet, but I love you Please forgive me. I'm sorry. Thank you. Brandon Handley 39:53 Yeah, that's, that's, uh, I love that. You know, I love that. I love that story. And it's first I've heard it It reminds me to of, you know, the meta meditations, right the loving kindness kind of real similar, right we send you know, no love and kindness out to somebody other people, some some that you're having some that you're on bad terms with some people that you don't know at all or whatever right now close ones and yourself, right? I think that that's always important is to, to make sure that you're giving yourself a little little love. I mean, love yourself first too, right? I don't know about you. But if you're not loving yourself, then who's gonna love you? Right? Right? Rick Thompson 40:33 I agree. It's kind of like the oxygen mask. I don't put them oxygen mask, or I don't take care of myself, how can I help anybody else? I need to take care of myself enough. So I'm strong to contribute to you. Brandon Handley 40:45 Know, and you so you, you felt like, you know, again, you kind of fell into this stuff? Have you applied it in your business? Has your business? Do you feel like your business has been exponentially more successful? Or do you just feel more successful as a person in general, because of all that you're doing in the way you're employing it? Or is it both? Rick Thompson 41:06 Both? I feel like my life is way better. I'm happy. I feel like I live. I'm grateful every day I lived a blessed life. I feel so blessed. I'd love to have everything I need. It's a great life. And my business does well, and I help others. And I mean, it's not the trip, it's the journey. So the goals are always more the goals are the opportunities to go forward. I have goals to do all kinds of things in the future. Just because I want to contribute and make the most of my life. It's not like I need more. I have everything I need today and more. It's just fun to travel the road. Brandon Handley 41:47 But what would you say the importance of recognizing that distinction, that you just said that they're you know, you'll want more? But you've got everything that Jordan need right now? How does that change? Kind of the effort, stress levels, etc? Rick Thompson 42:07 Well, I think it's, again, your rules, I think the stress level goes way down. If you can believe those things totally. Can I don't need more, I don't have to have this, I'm not suffering, you know, I'm not worried about this or that or that. Those things go away. And I forgive those that make mistakes and don't hold grudges, and I get rid of that negative engine energy I feel and you write on that energy wave or that love wave, whatever you want to call it. Right? Everybody calls it different. But it's existed for millions of years, because they talked about it. For me. The physics is different today than it was at the beginning of time. Right? We just call it different stuff and look at it from a different perspective. Right? The physics are all still the same? Brandon Handley 42:50 No, I mean, you know, to your point earlier, I think a little bit on Nope, we talked about it while we're here. So much, but everything, you know, God's created everything right, you know, everything has already been created. It's really just our awareness of it. Right. And maybe, I don't know coalescing it through our thoughts and being able to see it, right. I mean, something along those lines, the so what made you What made you decide that, you know, you should be putting out a book. And now, as it relates to this material, why you Why now? Rick Thompson 43:27 Well, it's just the way life went. And, you know, you kind of the calling, there's just something that says, hey, you should do this, you know, I thought I'd never be able to write a book. My history is not a writer, you know, I love science and stuff. But when it comes to the English language, those kind of things, I'm not top notch, I have a lot to learn. But someone came to me and said, Hey, you should write a book. And then I started thinking about what I learned. And I love the subject of science and how energy comes together and how it can help your life. And it helped my life so much. I just had that calling that how do you help somebody? I don't know for sure what I'm supposed to do to help others. But when you get that feeling in your heart, like you should do something. I tried to do it, and I got that feeling in my heart. I should do that. So I did it. Brandon Handley 44:14 Nice. My sounds like I mean, it sounds like to your I always get some backlash when I say, you know, following your bliss, but I mean, when you follow, I guess you're kind of heart hearts guidance is what I guess we could call it. Are you following the guidance of your heart? And that leads to something good? Is that kind of what you're saying here? Rick Thompson 44:36 Yeah, I believe that. You know, we all have feelings. We all have feelings. And if you listen to them, they'll guide you in the right path. When you go into a room you can tell rooms negative or positive. You can tell so many things in life, we don't realize. It's like the water crystals. You can prove that your energy does it but there's energy there. You can when we They do statistics on good and bad things happening when they have prayer, they have perceptions. And statistically, they can prove that when they have those set prayer sessions, the bad events go down. So our energy out there that we have, connect with everybody is available. So what do you do to make that work the best for everybody? Brandon Handley 45:22 That's awesome. So where the title of the book again? Where can people kind of go to find it? And where should they connect with you? Rick Thompson 45:32 The title of the book is the quantum mindset in a nutshell, and I have a webpage, that's the Quantum mindset.com. You can go there and connect with me there. And if you look up the book and stuff, it'll connect you to me. And through that website, that's the best way you want to email, ask questions. If there's something I can do to help you just let me know. I'd love to help. Awesome and who Brandon Handley 45:55 would you say like your, your ideal reader, I guess if you know, if we were, if we were talking marketing terms, that avatar or even your niche, like, who's gonna be picking this book up? Do you think Who's this talking to? Rick Thompson 46:11 I think it's people that are trying to understand life and maybe are looking for a change and not clear whether they can really make that effect on their life. This book gives you a lot of solid facts about why this is possible physically. And if you're looking for that kind of supporting information, but I think anybody who's looking for to change their life with positive energy, this book is a good place to start. Brandon Handley 46:38 Recommend I just want to say thanks for I know you're a busy man. So I want to say thanks for stopping by spiritual dope and hanging out sharing some of your story, your insights, and you know, hopefully somebody out there is no totally influenced by our conversation today. So thank you. Rick Thompson 46:53 Well, I hope it helps people and that's why I'm here to help you and I'm very grateful for you having me here today. And hope you have a wonderful day, your week.

The Reason You can't rely on will power alone is because will power comes from the conscious mind and our mind is like an iceberg. About 10% of your brain is for decision making, willpower, reading, doing tasks, etc. And while you definitely need to feel motivated and take action consistently in order to reach your goals your conscious mind is only the tip of the iceberg that is your mind. The other 90% of your brain is subconscious, that's the deep side of yourself, it's where your beliefs live. Your Subconscious mind is where you form your identity. In order to create and maintain a positive change in your body, your first have to shift your identity. You have to see yourself as a fit person, you have to visualize and take action from the place where you want to be, not where you currently are. Ask yourself how does your most fit, confident, hot, athletic, flexible, self shows up? Decide what it means to feel your best then you can begin to be that way. Identity is formed by several different lifetime processes and is something I don't consider myself a true expert in so please take my opinion on this with a grain of salt and do your own research. I studied psychology for a few semesters in college and since then I've kept up with my own studies. A few books I've read that speak on this are "The Body Keeps The Score" by Bessel van der Kolk M.D., "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen Covey and "The Power Of Habit" by Charles Duhigg, "The Power of Now' by Ekhart Tolle and I just recently completed a 3-day workshop specifically on how to reprogram the subconscious mind through Manifestation Babe and I wanted to share my take on it from a Personal Trainer's perspective. I think as we evolve together as people it's important to have conversations that matter I think this is one that should be had. We should all being to understand ourselves on a deeper level so we can all make the world a better place. And that starts with treating yourself well every step of the way. I've learned over the year fitness is mostly a mental game. Training your mindset is part of training your body. I say keep showing up for yourself and do what it takes to become your highest version, repetition is the way to master your self and your body, learn to fall gracefully so you can get back up quickly because life is supposed to be fun. And When you feel at peace in your mind and happy with your body life gets even better. It's never been about fixing yourself, only about becoming more who you are! Take some time to reprogram yourself so you can keep living your best life. If you're ready to apply for 1:1 personal training with me head over to aminazenafitness.com, fill out the application and we'll reach out to you shortly.

Dream leads are people who are ready to invest in working with you. If you have a system for bringing in dream leads, you will never be at a loss for clients. In this episode, I share my 3-part system for attracting dream leads. This is the same system that I used to hit 6-figures in my business, and the same system I'll be using to reach 500K this year. In order to bring in clients, you need to get in front of people and to connect with more leads. So before you pivot your business, ask yourself this: "Do I just need more leads in order to land more clients?" You just probably need to show up, market, and bring in more leads...not necessarily change your entire offer. Here's the exact 3-part system that I use and teach my clients: Think of your marketing as a road trip. Your destination is your dream client. You have to know who they are and where to find them...which means you need a GPS. The gas is your messaging or the content that you put out when talking to your audience. In order to get to your destination, you have to rev your engine and drive! This is why I call my lead generation system the "REV" system: 1. Reason You have to give people a reason to follow you and join your "hub" - which is the main place where your ideal clients can connect with you and learn more about what you do. For example, my hub is my Facebook group, where I get 95% of my clients. You can attract dream leads to your hub through a piece of content, such as a resource or a training that addresses the immediate needs of your audience. This could be a challenge, webinar, video series, etc. 2. Educate You’ll educate your leads through your messages/content. Your content needs to: a. Grab the attention of your audience Speak to their current challenges and what they want most. You may ask them a question or drop a truth bomb by giving them some tough love. b. Address their objections If you want to convert leads faster on discovery calls, you have to address the objections they have to solving their problem in your messaging. This in turn shows them that they need you to help them see what's going on and overcome their beliefs about why they can't have the thing they want. c. Show he transformation Describe your own journey to your audience. Take people behind the scenes of your business or talk about your client's success stories. Talking about success is inspiring for the right people.  "Think of your content as the gas to your marketing vehicle. Without it, your vehicle is not going to run and you're not going to land new clients." - Michelle Vroom 3. VIPs These are the people who are really interested in what you have to offer and are ready to invest right now. When you put out your content and message, certain people will start engaging with you over and over. Add those people to a lead tracker so that you can prioritize nurturing your relationship with them.  How do you build a relationship with them? This looks like following up or letting them know they're on your mind. You can check in to see how they’re liking your content, offer a new resource, or offer to hop on a call and chat through their challenges. Show them you’re a human and that you care. It’s important to note that some VIPs might be hiding behind the scenes. They may never engage with you until they’re ready to buy. Don’t base your entire marketing strategy on how many likes or comments you get on a post - keep showing up, especially for the people who are watching you without you knowing it! If you have a system for bringing in dream leads, you don't have to convince people to work with you. You can make money whenever you want.

Ever Wonder Why Your Life is Stagnant and Relationships Continue to Fail? Your Mouth Could Be the Reason You’re hindering your own blessings, relationships, friendships and growth. You have the power to speak life over your future.  Proverbs 18:21 Death and Life are in the Power of the Tongue Ephesians 4:29 Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.  Proverbs 18:19 A brother who has been insulted is harder to win back than a walled city and arguments separate people like barred gates of a palace. Matthew 12:36 Speaking carelessly and give account   You have to get to a point where you acknowledge how your words may have caused more damage than harm and also understanding how much power you truly have. 

When it comes to peak performance, most experts on the matter suggest that we learn how to care for ourselves, plan, and execute accordingly. However, even the most disciplined of us will have problems from time to time. Whether it's a physical ailment or a mental breakdown, we all have issues from time to time. Thankfully, there's some supplements on the market that can really impact your mental state. In fact, some of them contain some of best nootropics in existence. If you're not familiar with term nootropics, Veronica and I weren't either before this interview. However, the way that our guest, Prady Tewarie, described them, it almost sounds too good to be true! Something better than coffee?! Blasphemy! In today's conversation, Prady shares with us his journey in starting his business Azoth, one of the fastest growing nootropic supplement companies today. What's cool to me is that his entire journey in starting his business has been rather organic. He didn't force it by starting a business first and then finding a product. In fact, he did it the way that it should be done. If starting and growing a business based on your interests is something you're wondering if you should do, let Prady's story inspire you to give it a shot. Enjoy! SPECIFICALLY, YOU'LL FIND OUT MORE ABOUT: After spending so much time going after a law degree and becoming a lawyer, what inspired Prady to become an entrepreneur? 9:32How did he realize that fitness was essential to being in the right state of mind for his business, partners, and clients? 11:46Where did the idea for Azoth come from? 14:56How did Prady come to realize that systems were critical to building his business? 21:44How did Prady find himself getting involved with Real Estate Investing? 33:10What is he looking forward to in the end of 2019 and beyond? 40:40If he could add one book, one song, and one film to the national curriculum, what would they be? 42:33One thing under $100 that has changed his life? 44:07What's a believe, behavior, or habit that he's started in the last 5 years that's helped him improve his life? 46:16What's something he believed when he was 18 but now feels is inaccurate? 47:44What's the secret to achieving personal freedom? 49:19 ITEMS and PEOPLE MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Prady Online: Website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTubeCohost: Veronica KirinSession Sponsor: Uncover Your Personal MissionAudacious Entrepreneur on the Move PodcastNootropicsRay Dalio - PrinciplesJohn Warrillow - Built to Sell Right click here and save-as to download this episode to your computer.

Welcome to an episode I’m calling “Mid-Season Madness,” because we in the fair industry are at the midway point of our season. Most of us have been out on the road, away from home, for a LONG time now. I’m currently in Missoula, Montana, after recent stays in Great Falls, Bozeman----and the list goes on and on. What makes it different for me right now is that I’m traveling with my son, which is terrific for me. Today’s episode is a Tailgate Talk, which means it’s just you and me, talking about some of the behind-the-scenes aspects of the fair life. Let’s talk about some important refreshers---some things for all of us to remember at this point in the season. Here are Five Tips to help you get through the rest of the season: What we’re creating for fairgoers are EXPERIENCES They are paying for wonderful, impressive experiences Give of YOURSELF Magical things happen! Do something out of the ordinary for someone else Shhh! This is one of life's  secrets! (but it shouldn’t be a SECRET!) Get a different perspective Sit in a “different chair” and look around Have a little compassion Help those who are a MESS Don’t make people feel STUPID Let life HAPPEN Don’t get frustrated with what you can’t CONTROL Your ATTITUDE is all that you CAN control Attitude determines ALTITUDE My personal story: Why I believe some things happen for a REASON You can listen to more podcasts here: http://www.tailgateentertainer.com/podcast/      

As a general rule, you should not invest in new equipment or other hard assets when in the process of selling your business, unless it immediately increases your cash flow. Improvements to cash flow can come from both increased revenue and decreased expenses. Why shouldn’t I invest in new equipment or other hard assets? Reason: You are highly unlikely to recoup your investment upon selling your business. Buyers value businesses based on cash flow. They multiply cash flow to arrive at a business value. There are only two parts to the equation – the multiple and cash flow. They may appreciate your investment in the new equipment but they are unlikely to assign any value to it. If the buyer is considering two similar businesses, then the age and condition of the equipment may be a determining factor, but cash flow always trumps everything else.

The Reason You are NOT Losing Weight Your Cardio is Part of it

Do you know why you seem to be stuck and have not moved forward? The #1 Reason YOU have Not Manifested the Reality You Desire is Because You Have Not Learned How to Blend the Three Most Powerful Forces of Manifestation in the Universe: Theology, Biology & Psychology!

Fantasy and Science Fiction are alike in that each requires the creation of a complete new world. Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, The Avengers and Planet of the Apes each occupies its own imaginary universe. Fantasy and Sci-Fi are great for entertainment but not so great for selling most products and services. The process of selling requires a reality hook, something that gives us, here in this world, a handle on the impossible. Would you like to sit and listen as John Lennon writes the lyrics and melody to Imagine, one of the most popular songs of all time? It's easy to go there. All you need is the white Steinway piano on which John composed the song. You can see the cigarette burn on it from a moment when he got distracted and forgot it was there. That cigarette burn is a reality hook, a point of focus that brings an abstract moment from yesterday into the black and white of now. The power of any message – particularly an advertisement – is increased when you add a detail easily imagined by the listener. It was easy to see that cigarette burn on the white Steinway, wasn't it? This piano exists, not in fantasy, but in the residence of Yoko Ono in Manhattan's famous Dakota building. John gave it to her on her birthday in 1971. If you are a writer, a real one, you need to study magical thinking. Unlike science fiction and fantasy, the world of magical thinking is this world and all its impossible events happen in this, our own all-too-familiar universe. The writing style created by magical thinking is called Magical Realism and you'll need to be good at it if you want to gain and hold the attention of 21st century America. Fortunately, a new book was just published about it.   The 7 Laws of Magical Thinking      by Matthew Hutson 1. Objects Carry Essences: Cooties, Contagion, and Historicity “John Lennon sat at this piano.” 2. Symbols Have Power: Spells, Ceremonies, and the Law of Similarity A Red Sox jersey bearing the name and number of Dave Ortiz was buried by a construction worker under the foundation of the new 1.5 billion dollar stadium of the New York Yankees. Yankee management took this curse seriously enough to consider filing criminal charges. 3. Actions Have Distant Consequences: Using Superstition to Make Luck Work for You. A ‘lucky fisherman's hat' makes you feel different. Consequently, you make better decisions. 4. The Mind Knows No Bounds: Psychokinesis, ESP, and Transcendence At the root of the bestselling book, The Secret, is a bit of magical thinking called The Law of Attraction which says if you focus on a thing and see it in your mind and believe it is yours, you will have it. The book has sold more than 19 million copies. 5. The Soul Lives On: Death Is Not the End of Us. We think of a thousand different ways to say it and believe it. “There is a land of the living and a land of the dead and the bridge is love, the only survival, the only meaning.” – Thornton Wilder, last lines of The Bridge of San Luis Rey 6. The World is Alive: Animals, Objects, and Gods are People, Too. In her award-winning book, The Year of Magical Thinking, Joan Didion speaks of coping with the death of her husband. “I stopped at the door to the room. I could not give away the rest of his shoes. I stood there a moment, then realized why: he would need shoes if he was to return.” Likewise, most of us never delete the telephone numbers of close friends who have died. We leave them on our cell phones because there is part of us that believes if we called that number, they would answer. 7. Everything Happens for a Reason: You've Got a Date with Destiny. In Ernest Hemingway's famous short story, The Snows of Kilimanjaro, a writer named Harry goes on safari with his lover, Helen. A thorn scratches his knee as he photographs a herd of waterbuck, and...
