Mindset Timeout | Artificial Harmony
Friday Oct 29, 2021
Friday Oct 29, 2021
Excellent, high-performance teams are not born, they are created and developed through consistent and deliberate action. Many more teams would be excellent if they were proactive to deliberately block Artificial Harmony and adopt the courage to invest time and commitment into the process of cultivating a team’s comfort level with healthy conflict. Amazing results are usually achieved in environments where there is open trust, diversity, and transparency… traits that are not typical in all teams and need to be adopted, embraced, and nurtured. Welcome to your TIME OUT... Enjoy!

Whether it is an idea, your visions, your passion, or even yourself, everyone sells something. Life is selling.

Mindset Timeout REPLAY | Who You Are Is More Important Than What
Monday Sep 06, 2021
Monday Sep 06, 2021
It is quite easy to define your value or worth based on what you do in life because we equate power with position and title. For most people, it can be easy to get caught up in the things that are visible for everyone to see whether you are a star athlete, a real estate investor or business owner etc... We sometimes have to remind ourselves that who we ARE is actually more important than what we do. This simple statement is easy to forget, but it’s something we could all use as a daily reminder. In my own personal journey, there have been times when I put more value on what I am able to do as a coach and as a mindset specialist than celebrating who I am as a person. Enjoy this short message with some thoughts and reminders I hope will bring you back to who you are...

Mindset Timeout REPLAY | GQ... The Pathway to Mental Toughness
Tuesday Aug 24, 2021
Tuesday Aug 24, 2021
Whether in sports or in business, mental toughness may often appear to be instinctive in top performers but it’s actually a set of skills and tools that anyone can learn and develop. You must have the right MINDSET if you want to have success in anything. It doesn’t matter if you are trying to create a championship team or start a successful business; the behavioral and psychological principles are always the same. Average performers tend to quit long before they ever reach their goals and dreams. They allow discouragement, fear and self-doubt to keep them from achieving their true potential. The common denominator amongst those who fail consistently is a lack of mental toughness and a fixed mindset. This week's Time Out message shares the secret to developing more mental toughness in your life so more of your objectives, goals, and dreams become a reality...! Thanks for joining me. Make it a great day...!

Monday Jul 12, 2021
Learning HOW to engage other people started the day we began to interact a few months into life when we gained control of our physical motor functions... As a baby, we would pull hair or even bite others without knowing it was not the way to engage other humans. As we got older the same thing, don't say that and don't do that, and so on. To have good relationships and influence with others, it's not that you engage, it's HOW you engage people...! Take a TIME OUT and see what I mean...
