Jan 15, 2019
Alvin Law is a motivational speaker, former radio broadcaster, and an unrelenting inspiration. Would you believe me if I told you that he rocks out on his drum set... but doesn't have arms?
 
Alvin was born without arms after his birth mother had taken Thalidomide, a drug prescribed to relieve morning sickness, while pregnant. But what most of would perceive as an insurmountable challenge, Alvin just viewed as a challenge to overcome.

MMP 124 : Creating Your New Year Launch Pad 0
Jan 4, 2019
Happy New Year!!!
 
In this episode, I'm sharing the framework I use and that we implement at the Launch Pad Mastermind to blast into the new year with purpose and direction.
 
The three main pieces of the framework are:
  1. Reflecting on the past year
  2. Setting goals for the upcoming year
  3. Creating a Launch Plan (action plan) to accomplish those goals
 
Here are a few questions and concepts that are discussed in the episode:
 
Reflecting on the past year
Questions to ask yourself:
  1. What went well this year?
    • What did you accomplish over the past year?
    • What were your biggest wins?
    • What contributed to those wins?
    • How can you make those results repeatable?
    • What didn't you accomplish?
    • Why not?
    • Did you set goals at the beginning of last year? What were they?
  3. What didn’t go so well this year?
    • How could you have overcome last year's challenges?
    • What could have made the year better?
    • How do you repeat the positives?
  4. What did I learn?
 
Write your "old story" of who you were in the last year.
 
Setting goals for the upcoming year
Before setting goals, need to think about what areas/buckets in your life you want to set goals. For example, the main buckets I focus on are:
  • Family and Relationships
  • Business
  • Finances
  • Fitness
  • Faith
 
Make sure you are setting SMART goals:
  • Specific
  • Measurable
  • Attainable 
  • Relevant
  • Time-bound
 
Creating a Launch Plan to accomplish those goals
Nice goals! Are you feeling some resistance? That's totally normal. You just need a plan because action is the best remedy for resistance.
 
Here are some tips:
  • Start with the end in mind 
  • Break each goal down into smaller steps
  • Take one step at a time, but always towards the goal
  • Key to reaching your goal is CONSISTENT ACTION

MMP 099 : Mastering Your Emotions to Master Your Life w/ Hal Elrod (author of The Miracle Morning) 0
Mar 12, 2018
In this episode, I am joined by a guest whose teachings and strategies impact the lives of hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of people all around the world. We are chatting with entrepreneur, best-selling author, keynote speaker, podcast superstar, and overall inspiration, Hal Elrod.
 
I had the opportunity to meet Hal at one of his live events, the Quantum Leap Mastermind, last year and was blown away by his story and his presence within the room. 
 
For those of you who haven't heard of Hal, he is the author of one of the bestselling books on Amazon, The Miracle Morning—which has been translated into 27 languages, has over 2,000 five-star Amazon reviews and is practiced daily by over 500,000 people in more than 70 countries.
 
When Hal was 20, he actually died in a head-on car crash with a drunk driver, where his heart stopped for 6 full minutes. But that sure as heck didn't stop him.
 
Fast forward a few years and Hal is now the host of the highly acclaimed Achieve Your Goals podcast, creator of the Best Year Ever Blueprint (Live Event) and bestselling author of ten books in The Miracle Morning book series.
 
Then, in November of 2016, hardship struck again when Hal's kidneys, lungs, and heart nearly failed, which led to his being diagnosed with a very rare, very aggressive form of leukemia. One year later, after the hardest year of his life, I am thrilled to say that Hal is now cancer free and more inspiring than ever!
 
In this episode, Hal shares how we can master our emotions to live extraordinarily happy and successful lives.

MMP 095 : Take Your Life From Ordinary to Extraordinary w/ Erik Seversen 1
Feb 5, 2018
Erik Seversen is a writer, speaker, adventurer, educator, and entrepreneur who refuses to let others tell him what he can or cannot do.
 
This way of thinking stems back to when he was rejected from his dream school UCLA, and turned that setback into a challenge. He excelled in community college and got into UCLA two years later, where he graduated near the top of his class. And that's just the very tip of the spear with Erik.
 
If you take a look at his resume of life experiences, you'd hardly believe that one person could accomplish everything that he's done. To list a few of these experiences, Erik has:
  • traveled to over 80 countries
  • been to 49 of the 50 states
  • ridden a motorcycle on 6 continents and crossed the USA on one twice
  • had a machine gun stuck in his mouth in Nigeria
  • summited the tallest mountains of 8 countries and 5 states
  • lived with a remote Indian tribe deep in the Amazon
  • helped a company grow from $7M to over $100,000,000 in ten years as VP of International Business Development
  • written a book, ORDINARY TO EXTRAORDINARY: An Average Person’s Adventurous Search For Meaning, which comes out in March 2018
 
Erik's journey personifies the idea of living life with intention.
 
He uses entrepreneurial success formulas and motivational materials in business, but he’s also pioneering their use in the field of education.
