Nobody succeeds alone. That's the simple, yet very important takeaway from today's conversation. When I was young, I didn't believe I needed anybody's help. I wanted to prove to the world that my success was mine—that I had made it completely on my own. Well, as you can probably imagine, that didn't work out so well! Luckily, I started to recognize the power of relationships and how building a support system of likeminded and like-hearted individuals would not only catapult the success of my business endeavors, but would also bring a completely different level of joy and fulfillment into my life. 20 years later, I'm fortunate to be surrounded by an incredibly talented group of friends. Together we have empowered each other to succeed well beyond what we ever dreamed possible. In today's roundtable discussion, 5 best friends—myself, Jon Berghoff (co-creator of the Best Year Ever Blueprint LIVE Experience), Jon Vroman (founder of Front Row Foundation), John Ruhlin (author of Giftology), and John Kane (record-setting endurance athlete)—revisit the biggest lessons from two decades of supporting each other. You'll see that we have a lot of fun reliving past stories, sharing meaningful moments, and discussing the values and philosophies that have shaped our lives. You'll also hear why the Front Row Foundation (think make-a-wish meets Tony Robbins) is the glue that keeps us all connected and how the values behind the organization are fully aligned with the way we are living and succeeding together! KEY TAKEAWAYS Leveraging the power of HUMOR in the midst of adversity—What Hal's battle with cancer can teach us about making the most out of difficult situations. Why nobody succeeds on their own—You'll hear how a willingness to serve and support one another allowed 5 friends to succeed beyond their wildest dreams. The not-so-obvious benefits that are hidden in your relationships—5 best friends express their gratitude and describe how the culture of one company brought them together. Find out what the Front Row Foundation means to each of us and how an organization that started off as a way to help people fight life threatening illnesses, has grown into a way of living! Jon Berghoff also shares an incredibly touching story of Front Row recipient, Sophie, and the moment she got to meet Kelly Clarkson—this story will really help you appreciate how precious YOUR life truly is! Big lessons from Jon Vroman's book—The Front Row Factor: Transform Your Life with the Art of Moment Making—including how to become a moment maker for the people you love and care about the most.

Last week, I released Part 1 of a musical conversation between Brotha James (aka my good friend, Jeremy Reisig) and Jon Berghoff. They shared some fascinating never-before-told stories and jammed out to a few of my favorite songs, including "Grateful" and "The Front Row Anthem." Today we release Part 2, and you'll hear the debut of the brand new Miracle Morning song! The power of music is undeniable, but Brotha James, takes it to a whole new level by combining music with positive affirmations. His mission is to spread love and joy through music, messages, and inspirational living, and that's why I invite Brotha James to perform at all of our live events. Of all of the Brotha James songs, I think #3 may be my favorite. But then again, I may be a little biased ;^) KEY TAKEAWAYS During Part 2 of this musical conversation, you'll get to experience 3 more inspiring Brotha James songs: Song/Message #1: "Slow Down"—Far too often, we feel the need to move faster, especially when we look at what others are doing. This song is all about slowing things down and appreciating the little things in life that keep us grounded. Song/Message #2: "Abracadabra"—A lot of us associate the word 'abracadabra' with magic. This song is about the magic you can create in your own life. It's about deciding that you can do anything you want to do, if you're willing to go for it. Song/Message #3: "Miracle Morning"—Brotha James once asked me "Hal, what is a miracle morning?" My response was simple… "It's any time you wake up before you have to and do something that empowers you to become the best version of yourself." That's what this song is all about.

Do you regularly spend time with people who are challenging you to set bigger goals, and helping you to achieve your goals? Our ability to achieve our goals can be greatly influenced by the people we spend the most time with. Not only can they push us to succeed, but they can also help us define what that success looks like. If you're like most, financial freedom is an important goal. But what else do you value? What about contribution, health, family, accountability, or even bucket-list adventures? In today's conversation, Jon Berghoff talks with Mike McCarthy in his home in Colorado to discuss what it takes to live your truth and grab life big.

When we accept life before it happens, we get to keep the power that adversity will try to take away from us. We get to control the narrative. Instead of focusing on "why me?", we can instead choose how we give meaning to something. In other words, adversity doesn't hurt you, it serves you! Which is what you learned in Part 1 of "Beating Cancer: A Dialogue On Converting Adversity into Advantage". If you haven't heard it, I encourage you to go back and check it out!

As many of you know, shortly after I was diagnosed with cancer in November, my good friend and co-creator of the Best Year Ever Blueprint, Jon Berghoff, stepped up and has been leading the Achieve Your Goals podcast ever since so I can focus on healing. (THANK YOU!!) Although cancer wasn't my conscious choice, I do believe that I am 100% responsible for choosing how I respond to it. By choosing to accept what I can't change, be grateful for all that I have, and finding/creating meaning & purpose from what might otherwise be a negative experience, I'm finding once again that every adversity holds within it a profound, life-transforming advantage. This mindset applies to all of us. We all face adversity, and it is up to us to decide what meaning we give to it, and what purpose it serves for ourselves, our loved ones, and the greater good. That's what this 2 part dialogue between Jon and myself is going to cover. It's not about what's going wrong, but rather, actively asking ourselves what we can learn from these experiences and how we can use them to our advantage. KEY TAKEAWAYS The "Can't Change It" mantra that will help you turn any adversity into purpose that serves the world. Learn the powerful daily affirmation that gives Hal direction when the meaning isn't clear. How to win in business & life by throwing out the "master plan" and focusing on adding value.

Let's talk about coloring books. Yes, coloring books! Coloring books are not only for kids, it's also ideal for adult too. The science behind them is incredible. People are using them for mindfulness and visualization. Today's guest is a friend of mine, Brianna Greenspan. Briana has to overcome the physical challenges of being born with a chronic invisible illness. She has been using the power of positive affirmation for the past 10 years. From back and neck braces, surgeries and numerous doctor visits to competing her first 10k, hiking Half Dome Yosemite National Park, Brianna is a living proof that the power of positive affirmation can really overcome anything that's holding you back! Brianna brought about the idea to incorporate the powerful affirmations from The Miracle Morning Book into a coloring book! Each page is an affirmation that someone can color; the act of coloring helps your mind program the affirmation subconsciously. The coloring book has an adult section and a kids section so families can do this together!
