    Passion and Enthusiasm

    https://www.yourinnerbob.com Steve Rizzo's Hey I'm Talkin Here - Passion and Enthusiasm Host: Steve Rizzo Guest: Kellen Ann Did you know that studies have shown that those who make conscious choices to enjoy themselves and laugh throughout the day are more creative, productive and resilient to challenging situations?  They are also more likely to easily find solutions to complex problems.  In other words, focusing on your happiness makes you smarter.  How smart are you? The greatest benefit of genuinely enjoying the day is that you generate a massive amount of positive energy.  It’s manifested in passion and enthusiasm, and both are very contagious. Put another way, enjoyment is the spark that ignites passion and enthusiasm. It may not be easy at first, but as you condition yourself to prepare for the day ahead with gratitude, joyful statements, positive visualization and by focusing on what’s working, rather than fixating on what isn’t working, you will notice that stressful outside forces don’t bother you as much.  Ultimately what you are doing is creating the ability to bounce back and that’s an all-important life skill. It comes down to this: the unexpected is waiting for you.  Countless outside factors can make or ruin your day, many of which are not in your direct control.  So, it makes sense to seize control of what you can – no matter whether you’re in an up or down period, remind yourself that true happiness (and inner peace) is your number one priority.  And focusing on what makes you grateful puts you on the path to that happiness and the ability to enjoy the day.  And that is exactly why you have to make the shift to start your day in a good mood and maintain your feelings of appreciation throughout. Even one situation a day in which you are able to invoke your grateful feelings and choose to be happy in the moment can have a tremendous impact on your life.  I don’t mean to suggest that you become the Dalai Lama, but if you do, please smile and bless the rest of us. One last point (I promise), is the necessity to take action with passion and enthusiasm, instead of just going through the motions. So, always nurture your passion and enthusiasm. Allow yourself to get excited about it. Feel it, sense it, smile about it and embrace it! Talk to it! Visualize your goals and dreams with it! When you fervently hold on to your vision with passion and enthusiasm you will access s higher guidance system, which will lead you to a pathway of new circumstances, opportunities and serendipitous events.  Do whatever it takes to make sure that its flame is always burning. If you do, I promise that you will come to know what so many truly successful people have come to know: That passion and enthusiasm are forces that will take you to a better place in business and in life. I’m repeating myself, I know, but I really want you to get this.  (Plus, it’s my article and I’ll do what I want!)  Enjoyment is the spark that ignites passion and enthusiasm.  Remember that always.

    Get Your Shift Together - Encore

    Hey, I'm Talkin' Here, Steve Rizzo, Get Your Shift Together. https://www.yourinnerbob.com Steve shares his story about meeting with Christopher Reeve after his life changing accident. Steve Rizzo is the Attitude Adjuster. You can’t attend one of his keynote speeches or seminars or read his books and leave with the same attitude. He’s a personal development expert, comedian, motivational speaker and best-selling author. His popular PBS special brought him into millions of homes. It’s no surprise that he’s been inducted into the Speaker Hall of Fame, an honor bestowed upon on fewer than 300 speakers worldwide since 1977. Perhaps one of Steve’s greatest achievements was the stellar degree of success he achieved as a comedian, being chosen as a SHOWTIME Comedy All-Star. What was next for this funny guy in the prime of his career? For Steve, it was to trade the standing ovations as a stand-up comedian for maximum fulfillment and, well, more standing ovations as a hall of fame speaker. Don’t let the laughter fool you! What Steve brings to the table is his ability to engage attendees with laughter as he challenges them to shift their way of thinking to discover greater enthusiasm, increased productivity and new levels of success. As one of Steve’s clients said, “Never has my group learned so much and laughed so hard in one sitting! Thanks for the ride!” Don’t settle for anything less than Steve Rizzo’s approach. Because anything less…is just that. Directed by Bruce Himmelblau Blue Sky Video Productions https://www.bsvp.com/livestreamproducer

    Happiness is a Choice - Encore

    This podcast with a unique blend of humor and inspiration. Happiness isn’t one choice, like deciding which presidential candidate will make you less miserable or picking between the chicken and the prime rib. Instead, happiness is one long, continuous choice. If that notion seems too daunting, try thinking of it as a lifetime of small, moment-to-moment choices. On any given day there are a number of reasons/excuses that I can use to justify being unhappy. It can be work related, family issues (if you knew my family you would definitely understand), time constraints or someone else’s bad mood. The key, however, is that I know I’m responsible for my own state of mind.  I am totally aware of what happens to me when I begin to lose the thread of that control. Allowing these outside forces or circumstances to determine my happiness can quickly send me into a downward spiral.  The same goes for you. Whatever it is that has the potential to keep you from enjoying the day and the success you desire, understand that it’s not the situation itself that is causing you to be unhappy or to feel unsuccessful. It’s really the thoughts you have about the situation. It’s what you choose to focus on over a period of time that fuel your emotions and defines your reality. Steve Rizzo’s New Book , CONVERSATIONS WITH BOB, is a Timeless, Entertaining Dialogue for Living an Extraordinary Life! We currently live in the United States of Entertainment, where the attention span of the average reader is minimal. Steve Rizzo has intuitively crafted an insightful book that strikes a balance between truth, humor, imagination and engaging narrative. “An avalanche of bold, beautiful boulders of truth! I didn’t read it, I inhaled it.”   - John St. Augustine, award-winning talk show host and best-selling author Check out Steve's book at https://www.yourinnerbob.com

    Believe It and You Will Achieve It - Eddie Murphy story (encore)

    Steve Rizzo's Hey, I'm Talkin' Here - Eddie Murphy: IF YOU BELIEVE IT, YOU CAN ACHIEVE IT Host: Steve Rizzo. Co-Host: Eric Bam I am amazed that some people have been given every advantage in life and still manage to sabotage their success and destroy their chances at happiness.  Then there are those who seem to have every obstacle imaginable thrown in front of them and they move ahead, refusing to give up.  They take these obstacles and somehow manage to make their lives work and even enjoy the process as they go. It is my belief that those in the latter group, consciously or unconsciously, shift their thoughts to create an empowering belief system that will steer them to a successful outcome. People who are successful tend to predominantly have thoughts of optimism for health, wealth and abundance.  Whether they are conscious of it or not, they simply don’t allow negative thoughts of deficiency and failure to take root in their minds.  That doesn’t mean they don’t have negative thoughts.  We all do.  It simply means that they’re the people who see the glass half full, whose view of life is generally positive. It’s easy to determine whether the people you come into contact with are one or the other kind of person. Have you noticed that those who dwell on their ailments are always ill?  Those who speak about prosperity are prosperous.  Those who talk about how wonderful life is are happy, and people who constantly talk about their cats, well, that’s a different story.  The point is that your thoughts cumulatively provide a general blueprint of directives for how you react to everything in your life. Whatever you habitually think about or focus on the most will appear in your life.  So whatever you do, don’t focus on getting hit by a train.  That’s not going to end well.  Peace & Laughter, Steve
