    Secret to Find Your Passion

    Secret to Find Your Passion

    Secret to Find Your Passion
    What do I want to be when I grow up? 
    The first time you ask yourself that question is when you are very young - if you ever asked it. Frankly, somebody else usually asks you, and you probably didn't have an answer and just took off running with this thing called life. 
    And then it happens —
    Forty or fifty years later, people start asking themselves that question again after a family and career. The lucky ones don't confine it until they retire; they question who they are. It can be a scary time.
    If you are looking for a change in your life, here are a few things to understand—
    You can't move forward by hanging on to what you have. 
    Remember, you get more of what you focus on in your life. If you focus on what you give up, you'll get more. Instead, you must focus on the unknown future and look for clues about what you will do.
    I call the process "Exploring Your Possibilities.
    Imagine if anything is possible and there is no limitation or consequence. There is no commitment required, and money doesn't matter. Time has no impact. None of that matters because once you stumble upon what you want, you will have arrived, and everything will be forever different.
    How do you make this happen?
    The secret is to put the brakes on what you are doing while you seek new adventures. It will take time to find a good fit, so you'll have to ensure you don't slide back into your old ways. Don't do it, no matter how comfortable it may feel to get back in your comfort zone.
    Pump the brakes. Hold on to the space you've created. Explore your possibilities, and let life unfold in front of you. It may not happen overnight. Then again, maybe it will.

    Relative Time Management

    Relative Time Management

    Relative Time Management 
    In my entire life, I've always found it interesting that there never seems to be enough time in the day. Still, most days, everything seems to get done. If it doesn't, the world didn't end, and I survived to check off another item from my to-do list tomorrow.
    I know I'm not the first human on the planet to face the problem of time, but I think I'm one of those smartypants who have figured out how our time works in real life. And it was 180 degrees from what I felt that time was all about.
    How you look at time is about to change.
    First, when you run as fast as possible to get things done, time moves quicker, and things get done. But with every minute filled, there is never enough time to do the things that make your heart sing. If you're like me, that will eventually lead you to sabotage your list so you can do something fun for yourself. It's a never-ending cycle.
    On the other hand, when you slow down, hold space for yourself, and focus on results relevant to your goals, time slows down, and you get good stuff done. You also magically find lots of free time you need to fill. 
    Of course, this sounds familiar if you've ever studied Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity. As he determined—time is relative. In other words, the rate at which time passes depends on your frame of reference — or your FOCUS.
    So, what is your frame of reference?
    In our case, I'm not asking whether you are moving fast or slow; I want to know if you are focused on the essential things in life that matter to you. Everything else disappears when you do, times slow down, and you enjoy your day like you were born to do.

    Positive, Practical, and Peaceful

    Positive, Practical, and Peaceful

    Positive, Practical, and Peaceful
    I must admit that I get in trouble because some of the ScottLOGIC that comes out of my mouth doesn’t sit well with many folks these days - and they let me know. 
    One of the biggest comments…
    “You seem like such a positive guy, and then it’s like something clicks in your head and goes negative and ruins my day.” 
    While I don’t think I ever go negative, I’ve heard that many times. 
    Here’s the thing…
    It would be easy for me to get caught in the feel-good trap of chasing positivity - if only for being positive. But I’m not interested in that. I am interested in the results. 
    That is a peaceful, content, joyful, and meaningful life. 
    If you’ve been alive for over a couple of decades, you know all of that is found lurking in the truth. That’s why I consider myself a practical, positive guy, and you should too. 
    I believe an optimistic attitude is power in life; I also think that you can never be truly happy until you are willing to dig deep into the not-so-positive challenges in life. Until you do that, you’ll be blocked. 
    That’s why you’ll always hear me cover both sides. 
    Frankly, I’m not interested in what we can and will do in our lives. I’m interested in the millions of interactions, decisions, and feelings we encounter daily that become the life we will have lived someday.
    Stephen Fry said, “Sticks and stone may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.”
    Almost everything that freaks folks out begins with words from others and yourself. 
    Keep that in mind because… 
    When you choose to be positive and practical and ground yourself in the truth, you will become at peace with everything around you - including yourself.

    Diving Face-First Into Your Dreams

    Diving Face-First Into Your Dreams

    Diving Face-First Into Your Dreams
    “Please! Can somebody stop the world? I want to get off!”
    Okay. Just for you, I pressed the magic button, and the world stopped. 
    What are you going to do now?
    If you don’t have an answer, there’s no need to freak out. It’s common for people to get slowed down and think about what their life could be like, and I have no idea.
    But let’s say you are one of the few who decide the time to turn directly into the challenge.
    Many years ago, I adopted a philosophy that became the driver that would change everything. I decided to always turn face-first into any challenge between me and my dreams. Yes, I would face my passion head-on and do whatever it takes to make it real. 
    Do you know what happened next?
    I tripped, stumbled, and fell into a pile of my own crumbled dreams. That’s when I realized that deciding to face your passion was only the beginning. Before you can face your passion and live your dreams, a few more things must be faced first.
    You must face your stress.
    You must face your relationships.
    You must face your health, finances, and spiritual beliefs.
    You must face your friendships, clothing, what you eat, and what you dream.
    Yes, living the “I know there must be more lifestyle” is freakishly simple and no big deal; you do whatever you want whenever you choose. But it doesn’t take long to realize that getting whenever you want requires that you face a few things first.
    It’s simple. As scary as it may feel, no matter how much you don’t want to do it, everything becomes possible when you deal with everything in your life and take control. 
    So, the next time you find yourself trying to figure out what’s stopping you from living your dreams, there might be a few things that you want to handle first.

    Why Will Power Will Wear You Out

    Why Will Power Will Wear You Out

    Why Will Power Will Wear You Out
    When will you get to do what you want to do? 
    More people than you know lose sleep over that question. If that sounds like something you have experienced, you’re not alone. 
    Almost everybody begins their journey when a thought pops into their mind. Then, day-to-day life keeps them busy, and they spend frustrating months fixin’ to get ready. You know, starting to prepare… so you can begin to do… so you can do… and say you did. 
    If that doesn’t work, you summon your friend, Will Power. 
    Will is not a person, but more like a kind of friend that you don’t know why you keep letting into your life.
    They are a bit slacker, live rent-free in your mind, say they want to help, and never deliver on their promise. Will’s job description should read -- to force you to do things you say you want to do but can’t get yourself to do. When you give up, Will leaves.
    The good news is, there’s no need to force yourself to do anything. Achieving your biggest goals in life has nothing to do with willpower. Instead, shift your mindset - 
    “To act at your discretion without constraint.” 
    That’s the definition of Free Will, Will Powers, good cousin. 
    Use your Free Will to harness your excitement and choose the path of least resistance. Start making the slightest changes in your life. Those steps will lead to big results sooner than you think.

    Joyful Leftovers Happiness

    Joyful Leftovers Happiness

    Joyful Leftovers Happiness
    When I began training and competing with my dog in agility, I made a rookie dog trainer mistake. I wasn't consistent, and my dog was getting confused. One day, my trainer said, 
    "For a dog, one time means all the time. They will keep doing something new every time you let them do something new."
    As silly as it sounds, that came to mind a couple of weeks ago when my wife, a creature of routine and habit, did the same thing.
    We held Thanksgiving for our family at our home, and Joi's training kicked in instantly—
    "I like everybody coming, but what about leftovers? They need leftovers?"
    As a guy who has experienced Joi's "No eating out at the restaurant until all the leftovers are gone" rule, I knew this was a big issue. But, like a good husband, I got out of the way and let her figure it out.
    A day before the big day, I watched her bring two turkeys into our home and start cooking one of them — something I'd never seen before.
    After cooking the bird, Joi sliced it up, divided it into individual containers, and popped it in the refrigerator. I had to ask—
    "So what's the deal with all the turkey? 
    Aren't we cooking one tomorrow?"
    Her answer was as Joi-like as I could expect.
    "I just want to make sure everybody has leftovers. That's all."
    Well, I can't argue with that, except that she was giving it all to everybody else. 
    I sure hope I get my own. :)

Love this podcast!

Straightforward motivation!

L Lover ,

Very old school

A lot of this advice is very old school. I’ve listened to quite a bit and the more I listened the less I felt I could trust his advice. Very male ego centric. If that’s for you then power to ya but most of the advice is low hanging fruit. Not always adequate for modern day problems, and seems to be catered for middle age white men.
