Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

05:00 – This isn’t a brag, it’s a functionality statement, you have a choice to stay functional! We all have a choice to find purpose and function for your family, for your friends, and yes, even for your business and your professional life. So if you allow all this negative energy to come in, you’re only hurting yourself.

09:00 – I’m hanging with you guys in my garage where I’m normally sweating, or teaching myself how to run new electrical or install radiant heaters or put my new workbench in or hang skis up. These aren’t the reasons why I decided to record the show here in the garage. I didn’t know how to do any of this. I mean, this is five years and I’m really proud of this.

10:00 – Learning how to install these Rubbermaid FastTrack systems, I need to buy stock in this frickin company guys. All my tools are hung on these FastTracks, all of our bikes right here behind me, there are the shelves over there, etc. So these are all things you guys need to not look at me as an example, look at yourself, what can we do now to teach ourselves new things, to become bigger and better than we were before. If you allow yourself to be paralyzed by fear, or by what’s going to possibly happen in the world, you’re not going to get anywhere.

13:40 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I’ll sum it all up, take positive action, and move forward. Stop holding yourselves back. Get innovative, get creative, and you too can create some positive change in this world. Because again, this pandemic will blow through and we’re going to have a big problem with our economy. We need to recover and if you’re not going to help do that, you’re just gonna be in the way. I’m one of those people that’s going to move forward and move people forward with me. We need to because this economy is going to be thrashed after all of this, so join me!

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

05:00 – Shoutout to Rob Eschbach of F13 performance in Allentown. Shoutout to Jennifer Washburn and Corley Heiserman, owners of CrossFit Adoration in Bethlehem, PA and everybody else I know in that space. They basically said, hey guys, we got to close our doors, the equipment’s gonna sit here anyway, so come in and fill out a spreadsheet, sign out the gear, take it home. You can work out in your basement, do it in your garage, you can do it in your driveway. Do it in your kitchen, borrow kettlebells, dumbbells, etc. I mean, the cool thing is, you don’t even need that equipment. You could do bodyweight training too my friends!

10:00 – This is something I’m gonna push hard in the coming weeks in the business sectors that I’m connecting with. One of the biggest sectors I work in is the HVAC industry and there’s a lot of guys that aren’t very tech-savvy. I’m happy to train them. I’m happy to teach them because it’s time to level up man.

15:00 – The waitresses and waiters, they’re going to come in and clean the restaurant right now. The one Italian place near here, shoutout to Biaggio’s here in Allentown. I talked to the owner and he said, hey, I told my staff, we’re going to try and promote the heck out of delivery, take out, and curbside pickup.

22:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

What people haven’t thought about somehow is the long-lasting impacts to our economy. I can already assure you there will be lasting impacts going on way longer. Once COVID-19 has pushed through, we will have a lasting effect, I’m going to go ahead and call it out, probably a recession.

I’m not exactly one of those financial gurus, I just know a lot of them and they all agree. So keep that in mind. This is not about scare tactics. This is about inspiring you and fueling you up to remind you that this is what it takes to survive in the world. It is time you get off the couch and you got to start doing things differently.
