In this episode, Kyle talks about the importance of your middle—the season in your life in which you know what you're called to do, but you can't quite get there yet. It's a season that stretches you, strengthens you, and prepares you for the next season, but most people don't have this perspective. Enjoy this episode, embrace your middle, and never quit until you see everything God called you to do come to pass

In this episode, Kyle breaks down the danger of prioritizing 'looking like a success' over doing what it takes to actually become one. In the social media generation we live in, the pressure to pretend and 'fake it until you make it' is prevalent, but authenticity is what breaks through in the end!

Do you spend more time looking at the lives of others on social media more than you do your own? Can you tell me more about the goals of your favorite athlete than you can about yours? If so, it's likely that comparison, or even a mere obsessive admiration, is killing your own dreams, choking them before they can manifest. Learn from others and honor their work, but when it's time to get in your own bag, it's time to do so. // Instagram: KyleDendy

There's times when we're waiting on God and times when God is waiting on us. If you can discern the difference and know when it's your time to create opportunities with the resources he gave you, you will see dreams manifest in your life like never before. In this episode, Kyle shares his stories from his journey and encourages others to begin theirs.

Every day we see instances of individuals who were here yesterday and thought they'd be here today but aren't. Our time could be taken at any moment and for this reason, we must kill our procrastination and do what we need to do while we still have time.

So many of us walk around waiting for a permission to follow our dream when that permission is never coming. You don't need man's permission to do what God Almighty commissioned you to do.

Is it possible to think about something and attract it into your life? Is the law of attraction as complex and mystical as people make it out to be or is it a relatively straight forward tool God designed? In this episode, we dive deep into the law of attraction–what it isn’t, what it is, and how you can utilize it in your life for the attainment of the goals you have.

God did not create a single person without giving them gifts to discover, direct, and deploy into the world for His glory. Unfortunately, many of us never discover our giftings, many of us aim our gifts in the wrong direction, and many of us fail to deploy our gifts into the world either because of fear or because we'd rather treat our gifts like hobbies as if God gave us the gifts like life was a game.

In an era where we're accustomed to seeing people "blow up overnight" or go viral online, we unconsciously begin to attach those same viral-speed timelines to our own aspirations and inevitably get discouraged when expectation doesn't match reality. Success takes time, and too many people are looking for shortcuts and in the meantime are ultimately hurting their reputation and chances to attain the success they first imagined. There's no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs.

Our problem is often not that we can't succeed but that we don't 'think' we can. In this episode, we talk about the paralyzing mindset of "the fear of failure" and discuss three reasons why many of us struggle with it as well as practical steps to kill it before it kills your purpose.

Everybody talks about what they're going to do, but few make the power moves necessary to transition from talk to action and action to results. In this episode, we talk about the power of having a vision, moving past talk with no action, and tapping into your creativity in the richest creative era the world has ever seen.
