Timestamped Show Notes:

28:55 – So I interviewed Michael Easter, author of The Comfort Crisis on my podcast, and great book for listeners, very good. And he had this concept of you’re familiar with called the misogi. And it’s this idea, it’s this Japanese term that relates, that references sort of cleansing, and it’s evolved to mean sort of doing something very hard, where you come out the other side cleansed as a new person. And so this Misogi, there’s two rules of the misogyny. The first rule is, there has to be a 50% chance of success, and the second rule is, don’t die.

58:30 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

My legacy is about people by people who I impact. It’s about my kids. It’s about my wife. It’s about my my siblings. It’s about my community. It’s about f3 nation. It’s about serving people. And you know, there, there are few, few roles in life better than a teacher or a coach in terms of leaving a legacy. That’s why I love what I get to do, I get to impact people. So my legacy is about people. It’s about pouring into people. It’s about loving people. It’s about lifting people up, whether that’s my clients or the coaches that work with us, whether it’s my staff, that’s it’s about people.

Timestamped Show Notes:

03:45 – Brad has always been like a big brother to me. He has been in my wedding. He’s just been a mentor and someone that I’ve always looked up to. Just in his character, his discipline, and the way that he carries himself in all facets of his life. Including you, we’re products of personal development. It’s something that I eat, sleep, breathe, and my life is a direct reflection of the time and attention and resources that I’ve invested into my mindset.

17:15 – We have an idea, we have a mental model, of what we aspire to be. But, you know, I think the beauty part is the process. It’s the learning, it’s the getting better.

21:55 – There are little incantations, little things that I’ve learned over the process of the last three years of mentorship with him. That has really taken me to another level. I couldn’t say that prior to working with Paul Martinelli.

30:20 – It’s controlled, you know you get better two different ways. You could just go full throttle, with with no responsibility, or you can allow the law of process to take effect and you can get a little bit better and feel a little more comfortable over time. Do it in a healthy way. I think one way is, and I’m living proof of that, is rushing things, which is more prone to bad things happening.

40:30 – The thing is, the human programming or as human beings, we get addicted to emotions, to the way that we are supposed to feel. If you don’t think you’re addicted, give me this smartphone for a week. Get your hand off of that device, take that away for a month and see how you feel.

50:00 – Let’s talk about that 12-year-old little boy inside. That’s really the voice that holds me back, it’s that inner child? I was obedient. I set out on my journey, I went to massage school, and then I’m riding a bicycle. I road eight and a half miles, every single day from Allentown to Hellertown. To go help build my family business. We grew that business 1,000% in four and a half years, even through a worldwide pandemic. I hold a citation from the US House of Representatives and the US House of Senate, I became the most influential man in Lehigh Valley Style.

01:15:45 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

What I realized after I came home is that the bicycle that I road is a metaphor for a successful, meaningful, and purposeful life. What I mean is, the first thing you have is the handlebars. Those are decisions, our decisions create our destiny, one degree to the left or to the right of my handlebars, I’m ending up in a completely different destination. So you got to make good decisions.

The next is the frame of the bicycle. That’s my mental and physical well-being, my mental and physical health. One crack on my bike frame, I’m on the side of the road watching everybody else go through life. So you’ve got to take care of your mental and physical health.

The next is your pedals. Those are our desires. The stronger my vibrational frequency of my desires, the more power I’m going to put to my pedals and the further I’m going to go in life. So what do you want?

The next is the chain. Those are my daily actions. Those have to be in alignment with my desires. It’s like me saying I want to lose weight and be financially free. If my daily actions are not in alignment, I’m not going anywhere.

Next is the gears. Successful people know when to switch gears at the appropriate time. The gear that I’m in now is in the gear that I’m in with my clients or with my family, you got to know when to switch gears. You have to have the foresight to see what’s coming down the road of life so you can get in the appropriate gear and maximize your efforts.

The next is the wheel. That’s my support system. At any given time, during that 500 mile ride, all 230 pounds of me was on one spoke. In life, you’re going to have to rely on a handful of people. So make sure you have a good strong support system around you.

The next is the tires. The front ones filled with inspiration, the back ones filled with motivation. Now on that ride, I had to check and fill my tires daily. Because if you ever tried to ride a bike on flat tires, it makes it really hard to do. So you got to find something that inspires and motivates you on a daily basis.

The next is a seat, you are going to have to support yourself. There may come a time where you’re the only person that believes in your dream, you’re gonna have to support yourself, how are you doing that? How are you talking to yourself? Nobody’s going to believe in your dreams like you believe in your dreams, You have to support yourself.

Lastly, my favorite is the brakes. Everything in the universe is subject to the law of rhythm. Sun goes up, sun comes down, tide goes out, tide comes in. Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, everything is subject to the law of rhythm. Sometimes you’re grinding up a hill. Sometimes you have got momentum and you’re coasting down on those downhills. Don’t forget to use your brakes, slow down, take in the views and enjoy the ride. We get so fixated on getting to the destination that we completely miss the entire journey. Life is so beautiful at eight miles an hour. So keep pedaling.

https://youtu.be/-pB2WN-HRY0?si=UBfFhfh4DpPU1SIk

Timestamped Show Notes:

08:30 – When it comes to our Lehigh Valley, PA region, there’s not enough personal and professional development here locally, like you said, I’ve traveled everywhere, California, Florida, Texas, we know social groups and masterminds.

10:20 – I’ll tell you , it always surprised me when I speak at more local events and not the big stages. Like you said, traveling all over the country, no matter where you’re doing it, no matter if it’s New York City, or if it’s going to be here in the Lehigh Valley, wherever it is. So many people are hungry for it. I believe that everybody knows the truth deep inside, but either busy has beat them, or life has beat them down, or they’re on autopilot doing things. But when we hear the truth, we all stop for a second, we all pause.

22:00 – It changes the intent and how you see things, I promise you, and you’re talking to a guy who is a convicted felon, I did four years in the Feds, a high school dropout, I was a drug addict on every single level. I’ve done every single drug known to man, I had zero discipline, I had a mindset where I did whatever the fuck I wanted. I didn’t care who I hurt, I didn’t care what I did. There was zero discipline. Now, in this evolution, for people to understand where real personal growth comes from, with your family, with your relationships, with your finances, with your health, with everything… it’s discipline!

29:15 – Brother when I came in here, I put my phone over on the table. You know what I mean? It’s because it’s that thing, that mobile tech, you got to be disciplined to not look at it. Discipline is everything. Like I can’t say it enough and I can’t talk about it enough, DISCIPLINE.

39:25 – What you mentioned too, was intentional evaluation process. As we get older, many people stop evaluating themselves. I mean, you work in a job, you’re gonna have an annual review. But those numbers are already circled. How about we get to circle our own numbers and be intentional. So once a month I call it get my life together Saturday. I sit down with a cup of coffee, a cigar, and maybe really nice drink. Then I put down the different roles that I play as a versus overall as me, Andre, but also as a husband, as a father, I have four kids, believe me, I’ll have four different ratings. Okay, as a leader, and you could go whatever role that you value, put it down on a scale of one to ten. My rating is on a scale of one to ten.

45:00 – So I think one of the challenges of being a coach is we try to coach at home, and they don’t need a coach, like I experienced this with my daughter, Wes knows my kids. This is what I have on my phone at 9:15, and it says discipline equals freedom. Make a list for tomorrow goes off every night at nine o’clock. So like, this is where discipline comes into play. The gift in the curse with what we do, we coach people, we give people direction, we tell them what they need. Then we go home…

53:30 – DALE: Yeah, they need to be present, just like we were talking about be present where you are present. Like I to have quite a few friends who just had the most amazing dads. Like there’s nothing more important to them than their family and their kids. Not just that they’re proactively raising their children and teaching them. Here’s what it means to be an entrepreneur at 10, 11, 12. If you do this, I’ll give you a reward. So they understand reward systems, they understand then once they start doing those things, they get a reward, but how good they feel on the other side is a huge reward in itself too. So they’re just teaching them all these different things in life that I learned, but I didn’t necessarily learn from one person.

59:00 – One in 400 trillion or it’s 400 trillion to one. Each of us, you yourself are that one in 400 trillion chance to come into existence. When I heard that statistic, I immediately was woken up, just think about that. Just the thought of that is happening, why do you exist on this earth, why are you walking around. Each of us are a 400 trillion to one chance of creation. That’s it. When you think about that, it’s like each of us won the lottery of life. So you know how special you are right now?!

01:07:00 – I’m a man of faith, I don’t hide that. I think it’s very important, not so much being religious, but I’m spiritual. I heard the voice of God and he said, Wes, I’m all the father that you’ll ever need. I’m all the father that you’ll ever need, bro. When you put expectations on human beings, they will let you down a lot. So he said, I’m all the man that you’ll ever need. Just FYI, we’re setting a fucking date for this Men Of Mindset night again bros. I’m coming back!

01:13:00 – I mean, I think that’s part of growth, though. The theme of tonight was Men and Mindset, right? Mindset is just the key word. This event them just popped in my head, so I was just like, I’m just gonna stick it on the calendar invite and I’m still gonna stick by it. I’m feeling it.

01:27:00 – The Final, Final, Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

In the immortal words of the man who stole my fucking jacket from Skateway, DISCIPLINE. ~ Brad Modrich

Toxic Relationships

Scott Mulvaney — Tue, 16 Apr 2019 13:00:00 +0000

The Truth Behind Toxic Relationships and Your Own Toxic Family with Dr. Sherrie Campbell:

Today’s guest is Dr. Sherrie Campbell, a licensed psychologist, inspiring author, and nationally recognized expert who’s featured regularly on TV and radio, as well as Daily Mail, Huffington Post, and Entrepreneur.

Quote: What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.

Dr. Campbell is here today to share her expertise from nearly two decades of clinical training and practice to help each of you break free of the limiting beliefs that may be holding you back, and rise up to live the life you were born to live.

Top 3 Hot Points:

Health Communications
Toxicity Awareness
Disowning Unhealthy Family

[spp-tweet tweet=”Loving Yourself Is Not Easy, You Have To Grind! @Dr_Sherrie “]

Resources:

Final Words:

If you love yourself, your life is going to shift and you loving yourself sounds really super easy. It’s really not, you have to grind. You know, you’ve really got to know yourself to love yourself. And you really can’t love someone else. Unless you love you any way you’d be giving some sort of a famed love but it’s okay to set boundaries. You know, boundaries are not to hurt or to harm others. It’s just to keep the good and get the bad out.

On This Episode You Will Hear:

[spp-timestamp time=”00:30″] Introduction
[spp-timestamp time=”05:30″] I agree 100% and I’m very much of a coach, I’m not your passive listener, a canned psychologist that regurgitates back to you what you feel.
[spp-timestamp time=”12:00″] I lived in Leadville for a couple of years, that little town where the Leadville 100 race is.
[spp-timestamp time=”20:30″] But it is so toxic for me, so detrimental to my self worth, so many limiting beliefs created. It was crazy-making, I can’t prove a look at the disgust on someone’s face. I can’t prove a tone of voice, everything can be gaslighting.
[spp-timestamp time=”30:15″] As a child, you don’t know that your parents are in need of change. You don’t have the ability to process that in your brain yet. It really takes until you’re in your adulthood to recognize what toxic is I knew things weren’t right as a kid I knew but I couldn’t explain why. I couldn’t explain why. If I did, it would get gaslighted and turned around on me.
[spp-timestamp time=”40:00″] If anything, if you had decency in your being, she allowed her emotions to get the best of her and her self centeredness to get the best of her. I would think a couple of days later, you’d have like some guilt, or some resolution happening. It’s like oh my god, what did I do? You know what, maybe I need to put the olive branch out there? I need to reach out to her like, I feel like a complete POS.
[spp-timestamp time=”51:40″] The number one reason people leave their job is they don’t like their boss. If it’s sick at the top, whether it’s corporate America or your family, the trickle effect is it’s going to be sick at the bottom. It’s that chemical we talked about at the beginning of the show that just slowly moves through the system who poisons it.

People Mentioned:

Final Words:

Getting back to business… The ones who attend speaking events, hear the new teaching/principle/technique… then say, that may have worked for them but it wouldn’t work in our business… they are the ones that FAIL.

The ones that say, “is it possible that this applies to me”, are the ones that will succeed. If we go through life in that mindset, we will be dramatically more successful, we will be a sponge, and we are going to be fulfilled as well. We are going to be changing and evolving all the time, that’s a wonderful thing!

Marcus’ challenge to you, the listener, is to always go with that mindset that “Is It Possible That This Applies to Me” and he promises that great results will occur!

048: Paying Yourself Profit First with Mike Michalowicz

Scott Mulvaney — Fri, 10 Feb 2017 17:45:00 +0000

Profit First Accounting and Paying Yourself:

This episode is about stepping out of your comfort zone and flipping your finances and accounting on its head. In business we have been following the same formula for generations, Sales-Expenses=Profit. This means profit comes last, which ultimately means you come last. It is time to flip that formula and enjoy your profit now with today’s co-host. Mike Michalowicz is the author of the book Profit First, a book that I have mentioned many times on LIVETHEFUEL. Mike has launched three multi-million dollar businesses and sold the second to a Fortune 500 company. Mike is also the author of three other great books, The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur, The Pumpkin Plan and the most resent Surge. This is a great episode for anyone who wants to have a little more financial freedom in their life/business.

On This Episode You Will Hear:

[spp-timestamp time=”03:45″] What book should I be reading now? The answer, what is your biggest challenge right now? You will then find the right book to read.
[spp-timestamp time=”05:23″] Where the book, Profit First came from. Mike had start a lot of different businesses and lost a lot of money. Building those companies was not profitable, he was surviving check by check. He sold two companies and one to a fortune 500 company. He thought this was the way to make money and became an angel investor to try and repeat the process but he lost money fast. This was the necessary wake up call he needed. The mentality of being profitable one day in the future is wrong. The classic accounting formula of Sales – Expenses = Profit, which means your profit comes last, is archaic.
[spp-timestamp time=”11:46″] Afraid of change. Mike has literally flipped the accounting formula and put Profit First. It’s the pay yourself first system for your business.
[spp-timestamp time=”15:07″] Parkinson’s Law: As the supply of the availability increases, our demand for it increases, but as it decreases we become more frugal, innovative and use less of it. Mike uses a cookie to describe Parkinson’s Law. When we force ourselves to use less money in our business our behavior changes.
[spp-timestamp time=”21:35″] “Money to brains ratio” and “Keeping up with the Jones’s”. The 401K. When you first adapt to Profit First, it can be painful to begin with. Very quickly, when you see those profits stacking up, it makes it all worth while.
[spp-timestamp time=”25:24″] Dividing up your income into different accounts.
[spp-timestamp time=”32:46″] If you don’t know what you are doing, get help. There is no shame in asking. Scott is visiting Profit First HQ.
[spp-timestamp time=”35:38″] Profit First Professionals: Experts that maximize companies profits permanently.
[spp-timestamp time=”37:01″] Profit First Professionals launched 2 years ago. Profit First Professionals came from people who had read the book but wanted help implementing it and someone to hold them accountable for it. Now they have 160+ bookkeepers and accountants supporting it.
[spp-timestamp time=”38:11″] 99% of Accountants that have come across Profit First have converted to the philosophy. The ones that don’t are the ones that are not willing to change the way they do things. Profit First accountants apply logic and overlay that with behaviors. A lot of accountants just can not make that leap.
[spp-timestamp time=”40:08″] Some people want to go all in when they read Profit First and set aside huge percentages but that’s like putting a frozen mug into a hot oven, eventually it will shatter. One of the important steps of Profit First is to take small steps.
[spp-timestamp time=”42:42″] Taking small incremental steps and relating accounting to the fitness world. Profit First is a Dial not a Switch.
[spp-timestamp time=”45:18″] Quarterly Distributions.
[spp-timestamp time=”47:02″] When the profit comes out, it is for you to experience financial freedom. This is not to be used to reinvest in your business, that’s a whole different envelope aka account. If you are putting it back into the business you are defeating the system. If you cannot pay your expenses, you cannot afford your expenses, so you have to find a better way.
[spp-timestamp time=”48:43″] Final Words

[spp-tweet tweet=”Get comfortable with being uncomfortable with #ProfitFirst @MikeMichalowicz on @LIVETHEFUEL #Podcast, #author #Speaker”]

Final Words

Mike’s life purpose is to eradicate Entrepreneurial poverty, that’s why he does what he does. It’s about stepping into the un-comfort zone. Progress is made when people do something new when something has impeded their progress, what impedes progress is doing what is familiar. Get comfortable with being uncomfortable. That is where growth is. That is where the opportunity is.

Final Words

Doing is the new planning. You could spend hours, days, weeks putting together a business plan or a personal growth plan. In the end, you could have something that resembles something that looks like a small house. But you know what? That still does not do anything regarding accomplishing your end goals. That will definitely not move the needle in your bank account or your health and fitness lifestyle. It’s not going to move the needle in general. “Do” something today vs just planning it. If you can only walk to the end of the street, then do that. If you can only take a short drive, then do that. If you can only eat a healthy meal or healthy product today, do that. Just do something because that is how successful people move forward. They realize doing is the new planning, so stay motivated, and ReLaunch!
