    Episode 78: Trusting The Process

    Learn at 100% Sometimes it takes trying things and falling flat on your face to figure out what the most effective strategy is to do whatever it is that you’re doing. Whether sales, building a business, running a department, etc. move fast with intention to see what works best, and do more of that. Plan to win. If you fail to plan, you're just planning to fail. It isn't up to your manager/mentor/peers to tell you what to do every day. If you don't have tasks on your calendar that align your goals, you're missing out on an opportunity to make progress and grow. In my experience, on days where I don’t take the time to write down my most important tasks, things simply don’t get executed at the same level. Delayed Gratification Delayed gratification is critical, and your ability to delay gratification will have a massive impact on how quickly you reach your BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal). During my time as a walk-on, I had to be the king of delayed gratification. Getting my teeth kicked in on the daily, with no scholarship, all with the goal in mind to one day earn a scholarship. It took two seasons, but eventually the work I put in resulted in my desired outcome. The same concept applies in our careers. I know many of us have big ambitions for what we want to build, or what role we want to be in, the money we hope to earn, the fulfillment in our work, etc. Again, I can speak from experience in saying that more often than not, getting to these things does not happen overnight. Getting those things requires patience, experience, hard work, and ultimately doing things you may not be dying to do. It’s part of it. Expensive vs. Inexpensive Experience Expensive experience is gained from you doing ‘the thing’ that results in you getting that experience. Inexpensive experience is experience you get from watching others do ‘the things’ and then being able to learn from that experience without necessarily doing ‘the thing’ yourself. In some context, me and my generation must get the experience on our own, but I would invite you to soak up as much inexpensive experience as possible as you pursue your loftiest goals. Find mentors or others you trust who have walked the path you’re on and connect with them. Learn from them, and implement what feels aligned. It is a great strategy. Faith and Clarity I had a conversation this week with a buddy of mine and he said something that really provoked thought. “Clarity and faith can’t coexist.” This statement struck me. I know many times in my life I’ve prayed for clarity on what to do in a specific situation, and God will give you signs without question, but it was an interesting question to ask…can faith and clarity coexist? If you had clarity on all of your decisions and where they would ultimately guide your life, well then would you really need faith? I’m not sure. Maybe we should shift our prayers toward having more faith that the present moment is exactly where we are supposed to be in service of God’s plan for us…I don’t know, something to think about.

    Episode 77: Unrecognizable with John Jones, President of Scissortail Executive Advisors

    On this week's episode we sit down with the president of Scissortail Executive Advisors, John Jones. John is a Tulsa native who now lives in Dallas, and is in a season of extreme focus to building a legacy for his future family. His story includes ups and downs and ultimately a pivotal moment where he realized it was time to make a change and take control of his life. We discuss building a business, physical and mental training, the 4x4x48 challenge, the limiting voice in our heads and much more. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did. No limits. @jacksonrmitchell @thewalkonmentality @johnbryantjones

    Episode 76: Daily Deposits

    We're back. If you’re feeling like you aren’t making progress toward your goals I’d ask you this: Can you get 1% better today? 1% of 24 hours is 14 minutes and 24 seconds, and if you invest 14 minutes and 24 seconds into your craft each day you’ll invest just under 100 hours in a year’s time. Malcolm Gladwell says that in order to be an expert in a field one must invest 10,000 hours into their selected craft. So with just 15 minutes a day for 10 years, you could become an expert in whatever field you choose. You may argue that 10 years is a long time, but imagine how long it will take if you never start… No limits. www.walkonmentality.co

    Episode 74: From 446 lbs to The Pacific Crest Trail, Change Starts with You with Josh Murphy

    Josh was once 446 pounds. Cigarettes, beer, fast food, and a look in the mirror that prompted him to ask the question "What am I doing with my life?" were the catalysts to him making a change. This was only the beginning of his journey. Through pursuing a position in the army, to ultimately being retired due to medical conditions, to hiking the PCT, to the position he is now in, Josh's story is one of persistence, consistency, and a refusal to give in when it felt like all chips were stacked against him. His goals are ambitious, but he knows that with the level of work and commitment to the process, there are no limits. I hope you enjoy the conversation. No limits.

    Episode 71: Creating From The Inside Out with Founders of Sama Yoga House Gioconda Parker and Christine Anderson

    Their journey began with a profound belief in the transformative power of yoga, not just on the mat but throughout life's diverse landscapes. Inspired by personal growth stories and a deep desire to share the wisdom they had gathered, Christine and Giocanda envisioned Sama as an international yoga school, weaving together traditional and contemporary practices. This harmonious blend reflects their commitment to guiding individuals on transformative journeys. Rooted in theoretical and practical approaches that integrate mind, body, and spirit, Sama seeks to strike a delicate balance between ancient wisdom and modern practices. Beyond the physical aspects, Christine and Giocanda believe in the holistic impact of yoga, fostering connection, self-discovery, and growth. Through Sama Yoga House, they aspire to empower individuals to embrace authenticity, cultivating purpose and fulfillment that extend far beyond the boundaries of the yoga studio. Christine found her away to the life changing practice of yoga as an unruly teen in the suburbs of Chicago. She was an avid Ashtangi before she discovered her passion and love for the creativity of power and vinyasa flow. Christine is an uplifting yoga instructor who’s passion is teaching Bhakti Vinyasa-based classes that focus on devotion, breath, alignment and yoga philosophy. Her vinyasa flow classes will leave you with a sweaty glow and sense of release, while her restorative classes & gong baths will have you feeling blissed and grounded. Christine carries over 1000 hours in yoga & fitness education and loves to teach and share in the world of retreats and yoga trainings. Gia stepped onto her yoga mat for the first time 25 years ago—which quickly led to a new life path. Facing personal challenges, she found both the inner peace and grounded strength to change her life. This transformational experience of yoga called her to deepen her studies in yoga, ayurveda, and philosophy, and eventually leading her first teacher training at a prestigious Austin studio. An eternal student, Gioconda also holds a Master's in Spiritual Psychology and is a certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. Teaching various yoga disciplines, meditation, and pranayama, she shares her broad knowledge globally through retreats and trainings. Everything in her path has led her to being a founder of Sama Yoga House. I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation with these incredible women and am excited to see the impact they have with this special venture. I hope you enjoy the conversation and invite you to share it with a friend. www.samayogahouse.com Instagram: @sama.yoga.house @christine_anderson_yoga @goicondayoga Thank you to our sponsors: Good Wolf Provisions Code: MENTALITY ⁠⁠https://goodwolfprovisions.com/?sca_r...⁠ Rhone Code: MENTALITY ⁠⁠https://www.rhone.com/mentality⁠⁠ PWDRS Code: Mentality ⁠⁠⁠https://www.pwdrs.com⁠⁠⁠?sca_ref=4970134.wmS398vCws Kane Footwear ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://glnk.io/vyv85/jacksonrmitchel...⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Noble Origins Code: MENTALITY ⁠⁠https://nobleorigins.com/⁠
