Our habits are the building blocks that make us what we are!  In this episode, we cover the nature of habits and how they develop in our lives as well as the meaning and roots of the word.  With decisive material from Tony Robbins, Vince Lombardi, John Maxwell and others including some great stories, there is much to learn on this topic!  Join us and explore how to maximize our good habits while replacing the bad ones.

Perseverence is often the main difference between those who are successful, satisfied, joyful and happy and those who are not.  This doesn't mean things will be easy, but in this episode we discuss the nature of perseverence as it pertains to any objective - from doing the dishes to surviving as a prisoner of war such as John McCain (who passed away this week) did for 5 1/2 years.  We share some ways we can all enhance our abilities to persevere more consistently.  This is a great topic for any of us in all walks of life!

The Law of Attraction is a topic that has been talked about and addressed in various ways and from multiple angles over the years.  In this episode, we talk about the functional structure of chosen focus and feelings to inject power into our lives on a consistent basis.  Since ABUNDANCE is our birthright, we cover ways to harness our emotions and make room for the things we desire most while getting rid of those we do not to create even more space for the desired results.  Join us along with principles and stories related from Bob Proctor and Jack Canfield to learn how to get the most out of the LAW OF ATTRACTION!

It is easy to overlook, sadly, that ABUNDANCE is all around us!  When we say "abundance," we are referring to those things that we actually want in our lives.  In this episode, we discuss this concept as it relates to a chosen mindset, patterns and surroundings we incorporate into our lives.  We talk about a parable of a tomato and the planting of seeds for a harvest.  We also talk about Oprah Winfrey and her struggles as well as obvious triumphs.  Along with this, we cover specific traits and attributes of those who seek and obtain ABUNDANCE (which is all around us)!

In this episode, we talk at length about the concept of our worth as humans and the very real, tangible and lasting effects of our thoughts, words and actions.  We also talk about the struggles and turns of events that led to Ole Kirk Christiansen starting The Lego Group in 1932.  This is one of several examples used of the so-called "butterfly effect" of the seemingly small things in this world including our actions and the profound impact they can have - for better or worse!  Listen with an open mind and get to know yourself to maximize that impact in our world!

In this episode, we cover some ground on how we start in this life as babies and what that meant for us then as well as what it means for us now in terms of what should matter as we continue to develop and grow.  We also cover some topics surrounding our self-view and getting to know ourselves as well as Tony Robbins' 6 Core Human Needs and how those unfold in various ways for each of us individually!

Light is a source of life and joy in our lives.  In this episode, we talk about the scientific nature of light and how that applies figuratively to us in order to balance our lives and find joy!  We also shared two great stories of others helping lift others and even those who were about to take their own lives.  This is a broad yet very valuable topic!  See how you can manage and increase your light and your ability to generate light and positive energy so you can share that with the world!

Setting goals is a crucial centerpiece to have a target and set a path to hit that target or set of targets.  In this episode, we talk about a few stories of people who set their minds to something and the power of the mind in general in terms of how we focus and follow through.  It's worth noting that our attitudes are very important and we must have solid "why's" for everything we set out to do.
