Recently, two of my mentors, Pat Rigsby and David Bayer, wrote/talked about the same topic...a topic that I think about and deal with a lot as a fitness professional… TIMING Often when someone is considering a fitness program (or improvement they’d like to make or goal they’d like to achieve) they’ll stop themselves and [...]
We all have doubts. Sometimes they can be crippling if we let them. And, at least in my experience, it’s not that those who succeed have doubts… ...it’s that they don’t give in to them. I certainly had doubts with every big decision or next step. Heck, just reflecting over the last 10 years [...]
It’s been a hot minute since I covered some mindset stuff. Let’s get into it... There is only ONE CAUSE of suffering - the meaning you give an experience. Here’s a basic example… Person A loses his job and thinks he’s screwed. He becomes anxious and overwhelmed with the thought of losing everything. Person [...]
How was your holiday weekend? Ours was filled with lots of adulting...a late spring cleaning if you will,although it didn’t go anything like planned… It was one of our two planned Recovery Weeks at The Transformation Club (I’ll elaborate on that in another newsletter) so Janell and I had every intention of getting a [...]

This might be a little heavy for a Monday morning, but oh well... Today, I want to talk to you about your “inner conflict” - that unconscious belief that is in direct conflict with what you consciously want. Let’s read that definition again… Your INNER CONFLICT is that unconscious belief that is in direct [...]
Your brain is a goal-achieving machine, and it operates on the images you create for it. How does that work? The Reticular Activating System is part of your brain that, among other things, “finds” what you’re looking for. I’ll never forget getting my first car. I scored big time with a used Toyota MR-2.

I spent some time this weekend diving into some of the content included in the business/personal development program that Janell and I are part of. We’re really excited about some of the “next level” things we’re working on! I’m especially excited about bringing more mindset-related and habit-based teachings to our members... Anyway, one of [...]
I recently had my graphic designer create this image for me: It’s a simple graph, but it says so much… Small & simple actions taken consistently over time yield a significant result, positive or negative.
