Coach John Daly - Coach to Expect Success - Podcasts

“Send Coach John a message”A blast from the past - Napoleon Hill is a big time leader in the Leadership arena world. There are some big time teachings here where he gives us some ideas about the importance of changing our mental attitude. When we change the way we look at things, the things we look at change. But, it's got to change from the inside out. These lessons are powerful for sure. This also connects with John O'Leary's podcast where he interviews Patrica Heaton. Her stories of the encouragement that she got throughout her life fits right in with things that help us to make the changes that we need to make.

“Send Coach John a message”A couple of thigs here I wanted to share with you. I was thinking about how proud I am of so many former students and other people that have crossed paths with me throughout life - for chasing after their dreams and goals & sharing their stories about it. At the same time, I heard the latest podcast from my good buddy, Dr. Jeff Lip where he interviewed Mrs. Lisa Harris and her Storytelling connections to mental health. Find this enlightening & inspirational podcast HERE, This goes to show you on how connected we are to stories - stories that we share with others and those help to connect us in life. It's all about relationships for sure. It's also about the lessons we can learn from these stories that people share. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Since school is starting up soon (and some place it has already started), I wanted to share another Facebook Live video that I did to draw your attention to a fabulous podcast from John O'Leary. This one was an open letter of gratitude towards teachers where for me, this gets not only really personal, but very emotional too. Check it out HERE. Listen to it after you are done with this short podcast and hopefully you can see teachers in a different light now. What the world is going through is tough on kids now & teachers are part of the solution to helping them get through this. I hope you enjoy this one and John O'Leary's podcast too.

“Send Coach John a message”Recently I took the time to go out to have lunch with my parents and my sister for our dad's birthday. We met at one of their favorite places to eat and had a wonderful time. I did a Facebook Live video before I left the parking lot to drive home and I wanted to share it with you here. We need to take the time for things that are important to us. We have the same time in a day that we have always had, now it's just a little bit different as to what we are doing with our time.

“Send Coach John a message”Took a Facebook Live video that I did and I wanted to share it with you today.

“Send Coach John a message”Had a great message from a good friend, Tricia Miller sent this to me - A fantastic reminder about the fact that there is a role for everyone we meet in our lives. Not only does it get me thinking about the people in my life and what I've learned from them, but also - what can other people say about me? What have I done to make a difference for others? It helps me to take a look at the man in the mirror again and to really reflect upon what value do I bring to others. I hope this quick message helps you to find a mirror and look at who is staring back at you and to ask that person some questions after you listen to this episode. In fact, get back with me and tell me what that person said to you. ;-) Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Got a couple of texts from Gary Vee, and I had to share them with you! They were all about loving yourself & being self-aware of the great things we can choose to do for ourselves. Not because anyone else did the same, or to make our parents proud (which is not a bad thing in and of itself) - but doing things for you!! That's why I think it’s so important to know yourself. Know where your heart is. Know where you have your passions in life. Know the people in your life. Take advantage of the day we have TODAY to do something great, something you know you want to get done. Heck, something you know you must get done. Today and any day is a fabulous day to start to do this for yourself now. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”One of the biggest blessings I have going for me are the many students that I get to connect with throughout my 31 years of teaching so far. Ashley Scheetz is one of those former students of mine, that has also become a teacher. So many of my students have become "teachers" in they teach this teacher many lessons that I know I need to have in my life. You will see in our discussion that she is such a difference maker with everything she does. This conversation shows her heart is in the right place, where she is looking to be a servant leader - especially for women. She shares stories with us today where it reflects the passion and confidence she has for life - I know we all can use more examples of that to learn from. She is such a fabulous advocate for people which the world needs more of for sure. Ashley is a proud Central Michigan University Alumni - another reason I got "Fired Up" for this interview. I hope you enjoy the lessons she offers here today. If you are interested in reaching out to Ashley - you can find her on Instagram: @ascheetz9 and by email: [email protected] Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”A lot going on today on top of all the things going on in our world, it can get overwhelming a little bit at times. I did a Facebook Live video where I mentioned some things that are on my mind a bit. Worrying is something that I do, but I try not to let it get out of hand. It started piling up a bit the morning when I thought about a few things differently and I wanted to share with you some of the insights and thoughts that I got from all of this stuff going on. The podcast that I was listening to that I talk about here is from Jon Gordon where he talks with Lecrae. You can listen to it here: https://positiveuniversity.com/episode/lecrae/ I think we all get overwhelmed at times, especially in the crazy times we are all in right now. But there is hope out there. There are good things to get connected with and I hope this helps you do some of that. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”I wanted to throw a couple of things at you to start our week off. I got this text from Gary Vee, he said "The opportunity you have for the rest of this year is far greater than you think, as soon as you "think it" and "see it" your actions will follow!" This can be all of us! Sam Crowley says it all the time - the work we put in today can start to show benefits 30, 60 even 90 days from now. It's the work we put in day in and day out - changing habits, especially changing bad ones to good ones. It was just something that I wanted to share with you to hopefully get your day and week off to a great start! I hope this helps. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”All my guests have given me so much inspiration along with some powerful lessons, Erica Tyler is certainly another on that does that here today. I got to tell you, I ended our call with each other having tears of gratitude being so grateful for this young lady coming into my life. As I said at the start of this show, she has been such a wonderful encourager for me ever since our paths crossed going on 10 years ago. The lessons here that she shares with us are simply pure gold. She leads her life with her faith and that to me is a major reason why she has so much confidence throughout her life. She reminds all of us about some things that I think if we (and society too) take to heart, I think so many things could get better for all of us. You will want to have your note pad out for this one. I know you will come away from this talk feeling more empowered and inspired. You can find her on Instagram: the_tyler_tribe.

“Send Coach John a message”It hit me hard again as to how many great people that have had the privilege and honor to work with throughout my lifetime. Tyler James is a former student of mine and now a PGA Professional that I got the opportunity to catch up with for this interview. What an inspiration this guy is in so many ways, especially as an example of chasing after things in life that you have a passion for. Even if you don't like golf (can't believe that, but let's just say you don't), you can still learn plenty from this conversation. On TV, the game of golf or more accurately, the life of a pro golfer looks to be awesome! But to see behind the scenes as to what goes into that life, is really challenging and takes a lot of dedication, sacrifice, and focus. The life lessons that Tyler shares with us are endless here - and I hope you pick out some of the valuable lessons like I did.

“Send Coach John a message”Powerful message thanks to a former student of mine who posted how frustrated he was with the upcoming election. I did this on a Facebook Live video - find the video on my FB Page at Coach John Daly. It really hit home with me because I'm also frustrated too at what is going on. I also get down, depressed & full of anxiety at times from this and many other things. I just want to offer some hopeful & comforting words and thoughts that you are not alone if you are feeling like this. You have a lot of company for sure. One of the things that got me thinking about getting through these times is to invest in yourself. This podcast from Jon Gordon really hit home with me and I mentioned it in today's video - here is the link for you to check that out: https://positiveuniversity.com/episode/jack-easterby/?fbclid=IwAR00Nf4e1ktC_DQ68en6Tez4pvHi-0ySlNodhFTxED34uM1m2gz_KofaUio Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Had an awesome conversation to start my day off in a wonderful direction with the one and only, Travis Joseph. Travis is a graduate from Lake Shore High School - class of 2012 who now lives down in Florida and is in the finance area of high-end boats and air craft. He takes us through a leadership journey in our talk, especially leaning towards servant leadership. I love how he brought up some key elements of being patient, not rushing, listening more, asking questions, and so many wonderful & true statements that we all can learn from. He's had his share of rough lessons in his life that he has been open to learning those important lessons to make him better. Such a great teacher to me with these lessons. Our conversation could have gone on for hours. He was sure to mention plenty of people too that he has had great connections with and who helped him in his journey so far. He's open to people reaching out to him as he wants to make a difference with others any way he can. Find him on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/travis.joseph.98 On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travis-joseph-9250a612b/ On Instagram at either: @Traviee_mccoy or @Spartanfishingcompany Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”So many lessons from "The Final Summit" by Andy Andrews all brought to you again, from Dr. Jeff Lip. I had to bring up another powerful point that I got from Jeff the other day when we recorded an episode for his show. I love the thought that "I cannot do everything, but I can do something." That something comes in many forms and of those many forms, we can find those that we all can do. There is no better time that the world needs us to all do good things, no matter how big or small they are. We can't let what we can't do get in the way of the things that we can do. A HUGE part of it is to invest in ourselves. One thing for me has been getting back to reading a lot more than I have done in a long time. I went through some of the books that I've read lately and I'm here to say, that you can't go wrong with any one of them if you are looking for a book to read. Dictate to life! Be that Coffee Bean and you can make changes to the circumstances that come your way, instead of letting the circumstances change you! Again, head on over to jefflip.com to check out his podcasts, as with the books, you can't go wrong listening to any one of his shows. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Got all fired up from a conversation with the one and only Dr. Jeff Lip. We were talking about a book that we both recent read, "The Final Summit" by Andy Andrews. It was an eye, mind & heart opening book and Jeff brought up some great points that we talked about on his show. Check jefflip.com to find his podcasts to listen to it. One thing I wanted to bring up was this idea of our lives being a mindset of a "! vs. ?". Our lives can be either a question mark (full of doubt, fear, lack of passion, etc.) or it can be an exclamation point (confidence, encouragement, passion, great relationships, etc.). There are so many things that we can do to get through the "stormy seas" that we all have going on in our lives and how we don't have to be scared along with realizing that we ourselves, can be the "calm" of our own storms. This is something that will help me to get my day & week started in a great direction. I hope it does that for you too. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Ran across a fabulous podcast from John O'Leary.... find it here on Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/john-oleary/live-inspired-podcast-with-john-oleary/e/76219703 In fact, you can pause mine and go listen to this one first.... very powerful podcast from John O'Leary and his guest Brian Walsh. He brings up about being a Foxhole Friend... one who will be there with you for anything you need. He brings up the fact that throughout life, we don't usually have that many that we know they would drop anything and be with us no matter what. Maybe you have many of those friends - consider yourself blessed. The key is that we need to be that Foxhole Friend for others. We just need to recognize the good people in our lives and make sure we let them know how much we love and appreciate them. This world needs us to start to listen to and recognize each other more. We need each other more than ever & that includes being more kind and showing more compassion too. Read more books that help you grow and get better. Listen to more podcasts & music that connect to your mind, heart & soul. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Another difference maker has found their way onto a podcast with me. Cody Vargo has such a powerful story of life's different directions taking you to an ultimate destination that you find a lot of joy and passion. Awhile back, Cody told me about the book, "The Energy Bus" by Jon Gordon and what a powerful book it was. We had a great conversation about this and the lessons he found from it. I just got done reading it recently and he's right - great book that I took many lessons from it for my life. One of the many things that came out of this talk with Cody, were the people that he thanked for making a difference with him and his life. He reminded me to be grateful for the countless number of people that have made a difference with me in my life. I really enjoyed this talk with Cody - along with a special appearance from his wife, Kelsey that just topped it off for me as to how special this talk was.

“Send Coach John a message”I saw two things to share with you to start your week off in a good direction. First it was a quote from Napoleon Hill - "You are what you think about, so be very careful to keep your thoughts positive and on your goal." In other words - guard the 6 inches or so that is between your ears!! It's the most valuable space you own! Watch what you allow into your own mind. The second thing was from a former student of mine who put out a post about how negative and nasty the world seems to be and if she had her way, she'd take off for 3 years or so to just get away from all of the hate, anger, negativity, etc. I've thought that many times myself, but I know that would not be possible.... but you know what is possible? Work at not letting that stuff in your head and your heart. Easy, probably not. But remember, great things usually are not easy, but they are worth it. So as you start this week off - remember, guard the space between your years. Work on it a little bit each day. Read more good stuff (find Jon Gordon's book "The Garden") and other good books. Find great things to listen to - thanks by the way for listening to this podcast. Find great people to surround yourself with. Remember, you need to be one of those to attract them in the first place. So be that awesome person for others. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”So good to catch up with Coach TI as we all call him and what a great conversation we had. The last time Tom was on, was with the good Dr. Jeff Lip, way back in episode #189. Tom goes through so many great points that can help so many people - especially with what we are all going through now in the world. Tom got quite an accomplishment done over his time at home as he's finished a thesis paper dealing with a bit of history and he's feeling really good about himself, as he should. It's quite an accomplishment for sure. So sit back as he shares stories, insights & lessons that we all sure can use in our lives. There are many people that have helped him throughout his life & he is now doing the exact same for so many people. Football has taught this man so many lessons & I love how he makes them all relatable for life.

“Send Coach John a message”Had to share this with everyone along with trying something new of working with my Facebook Live, my YouTube channel and using it here in a podcast. So far, so good. So many things happened in the last 24 hours or so that has taught me some important lessons dealing with Appreciation & Gratitude. Yesterday for example, I was in a great group chat with some friends Denyse, Jeff & Tricia yesterday. We just had some discussions on what we are doing lately, celebrating some things, discussion on some successes of overcoming roadblocks of doing things we want to do. It was a very uplifting and encouraging group chat. Denyse has been leading the way helping us all to see the importance of having these every so often. This morning too, Coach Dave reached out to me just for a quick chat as he drove into school where he has a long list of things that have to get done, and we had a very uplifting & encouraging discussion that really helped both of us. Reading a lot more has been a huge part of feeling good about myself and being inspired about many things going on in my life too. Then finally, I went out to our local Fresh Market... picked up some deli items and fresh vegetables too and I saw a few examples of things that reminded me about Appreciation, Gratitude, Compassion, Kindness and like my good friend Coach T.I. mentioned on Facebook, we all need to compromise a little bit more too. So many lessons in the span of just living my life & I had to share it here with you in this podcast. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”What a great time on the road in the car when I recorded this podcast. I did a Facebook live on a few thoughts from a John O’Leary podcast where he interviewed a TV & Radio guy from Minneapolis, Minnesota - Mike Max who was directly involved with covering some of the unrest there after the death of George Floyd. Bottom line - we are more alike than we are different. We ALL have friends, family and loved ones that we want to come home to every night. This is an amazing podcast that I think you benefit greatly to listen to this show - find it HERE. There is still so much we need to learn about people, to learn about ourselves, about others and I am really wondering why we let people, especially politicians, affect our lives so much. It seems we are divided now even more so than ever in my lifetime. When times of crisis hit (and we are in the middle of a biggie now), those times really reveal people. They reveal compassion and kindness or it reveals some ugliness too. I am challenging myself and you too, to find better ways of making our way through these crises and try to keep working on improving ourselves. The world needs us to do that, heck… let’s just start with our families, friends and communities need us to do that. We got to try and get better for sure. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”This was a distinct pleasure talking with Stacey Phillips and quite frankly, it was long overdue for me to reach out to her to have a powerful and inspiring chat. Stacey is one of my former players from just about 25 years ago that I'm very proud of all the things she has accomplished throughout her life. From being a 3 sport athlete in high school, to an All-American at Michigan State University in Softball, to a Head Coach for Indiana University Softball, a commentator on the Big-10 network for softball and now making a difference in the medical device industry. She is a Champion for Women's Leadership along with being a great example that team sports throughout life foster some fabulous success skills for life. I love her authenticity and she shares some fantastic lessons for all of us to learn from no matter what profession we are in. I love how this educator continues to learn and to be inspired by former students & I can say with pride on how much I appreciate knowing Stacey. She like so many others in my life, have made me a better person for sure. If you want to reach out to her, her email is: [email protected] and on Instagram: @msuphilly32 This "kid" is as special as they get & it brings back so many of the thousands upon thousands of reasons why I count myself as very blessed for being connected to the Lake Shore community.

“Send Coach John a message”Once again I wanted to share with you one of the outstanding interviews that I was able to pull off with this special guest for my Principles of Leadership class with my seniors during the Spring Term this past school year. Coach Rich Popp was able to stop by and I was so glad to catch up with him so that he could share with the countless leadership lessons that were not only there to help my seniors, but anyone who wants to listen. I hope you are part of the group that wants to listen and pick up some lessons just like my students got the chance to. This man was born to be an educator and a coach. He's a difference-maker for young people and the world needs more people like him. You can reach out to Coach Popp at: [email protected] and also find him on Twitter: @Coach4254 On a side note - he does some outstanding work for football players of all ages in training and coaching. Reach out to him if you want more information. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”I think this reading more books is tending to agree with me as I am more fired up now than ever before and reading has been a big part of it. My current read is "Mean People Suck" by Michael Brenner and it's another good one. No big surprise as I heard about this book on John O'Leary's Podcast - http://johnolearyinspires.com/2019/12/michael-brenner-208/ This whole simple idea that we don't know everything & there are tons of people that think they do know everything. There are a couple of advantages for those of us that realize that isn't true. It's a great way to get our week started with this important reminder. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”This is a special treat as I took my interview with our Superintendent, Dr. Joe DiPonio for my Principles of Leadership class 3 months ago and put it together to share with you. The lessons are priceless for the class of 2020 and for all of us too. These lessons can be applied to your life right now, no matter what you are doing. It's a powerful testimony as to the kind of leader Joe is and where he shows his heart to be - and that's helping kids get a great start in life and to carry the lessons they learn from us onto adulthood.

“Send Coach John a message”Had another fantastic reminder about not only the person I want to be but also who I don't want to be. This reminder was not so gentle either & I deserved every bit of humble pie that I had to swallow. Best one to teach these lessons to me of course is my wife. The one that is correct so many times more than she's not. The scoreboard went up for her "victory total" with this story. We were up in one of most favorite spots in the world - Traverse City, Mi. We were blessed enough to go up there last week and stay at her parents' condo that they own there for 2 quick nights. Before I share the lessons I learned, a little backstory. We have been going up there together for almost 30 years - 18 or so as a family with our kids, her siblings and their families, and her parents. Family dinners, golf outings with my brother-in-law Jim, poker games with the guys, swimming, eating out, Pirates Cove mini golf & water rides, all the great stuff that summers are made of. As the kids got older and plans changed for everyone, my wife and I kept going up there. We found so many wineries that we really enjoy going to and it's been our mission to go to everyone that we can find in the area over the years. The beaches are great. Downtown Traverse City is awesome. So many small towns and great things to do for hours in any direction you drive from there. You can read the rest of the story HERE on my blog. Needless to say, it was another set of important lessons that I needed to learn & I guess I need to keep learning. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”This podcast was out awhile ago but not only did it get me thinking back when I heard it, I also got some great input when I read about it in John O'Leary's book - "In Awe". (this is one I will keep reminding you to go out and get). It's one key question that Fr. Tom Hoar mentions that gets us thinking about making a change - "Have You Had Enough?" Check out this awesome podcast HERE. Now Fr. Tom helps others with their addictions, so asking that question with that in mind is powerful enough. But, we can still ask this question for anything in our lives we want to change. I know there is plenty of things that I need to change because I am tired of them in my life. How about you?

“Send Coach John a message”Here it is in writing - Get John O'Leary's book, "In Awe" as it's another life changer, just like his first book "On Fire" was. You have heard me say it and now it's in written in words too to remind you. ;-) This story is about William Borden and these 3 life-changing mindsets of his. These are powerful. No Reserves - not leaving anything in the "tank" of our lives. No Retreat - not backing down from tough things we have to do just to settle for an easier life. No Regrets - this one probably is one that I've been focusing in on more and more as it seems my life (and all of our lives) is really just speeding by. These are some powerful thoughts that John O'Leary shares in his book that I'm putting my own thoughts & ideas to them. I hope it helps to get you thinking about these 3 too. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Found another quick story from John Maxwell where he shared a great story about a guy who counted out his marbles of life. He related to each marble representing one Saturday of our lives with the average life being at 75 years. With that math, I have a little over 1000 Saturdays left at my current age. It reminds us to not put things off. It reminds us to quit doing things that we know are a waste of time. It hopefully reminds us to always look to get better for our marbles will indeed run out someday. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Got out of the old comfort zone today - I recorded this podcast along with a Facebook Live video a few days ahead of time. I found something from John O'Leary's book "In Awe" that I really wanted to share with you. It was Ch. 28 on Showing Up! He talked about waking up - getting out of our own way and stop being fearful about doing things we know we have to do. This hit home with me and I hope it does with you too. We tend to be our own worst enemy and we hold ourselves back throughout most of our lives. I hope this gives you something to think about and we all need to wake up to fixing our own mindsets. Have a great week! Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”The story continues with part 2 with Ashley and Dave Ruekert as they take us on a journey with the ups and downs of their journey with their young daughter in the hospital. I hope you got a chance to listen to part 1 as it will make a whole more sense getting that one under your belt first. See show #412. I actually toyed with making this into parts 2 and 3, but in my heart I just knew I wanted to keep the conversation going for this show and split it up. It's a little longer, but hey - you can break it up a few different times if you need to. This is a powerful part 2 as I love the discussions about the importance of listening to your gut. To be your own advocate and especially to step up and speak up for those that do not have their own voice. The amazing lessons of people's kindness and compassion, coming from so many different people - many that didn't even know them. It's really an important lesson for all of us to take with us, especially in today's times. We all can be better from the lessons that Ashley and Dave share with us today. If you want to, reach out to both. Dave at [email protected], @CoachRuekert on Twitter and Instagram.

“Send Coach John a message”Well, I knew had to have this star pro hockey player back on. After all is still the #1 ranked podcast episode from all my shows. Shame on me for waiting so long to have him back on. He was on show #183 from back in July of 2018. Shawn shares so many lessons for his different directions his hockey career has taken him. All these lessons can be connected to all of our lives, whether we play hockey or not. This guy is a natural born leader and when you tie those skills in with a passion for something in life - in his case hockey, it's a winning recipe for life! He's got so many valuable lessons he shares with us today and I love the love he shows for hockey. It's infectious to help us find those things in life that we are fired up over & to go after them for like Shawn says, he doesn't want to live with regrets.

“Send Coach John a message”Getting some great reading done lately from John O'Leary's book - "In Awe" and I wanted to share just a bit of motivation from it that I just ran across. John was sharing a story about meeting Augie Nieto, a man with ALS and the lessons he taught John. A long time for Augie to tell John, "I don't want to be ignored." It is time for all of us to ask questions to each other and not shy away when we see someone different. It's also time to stop hiding who we are and realize WE ALL long to be seen! Great stuff to work on this week my friends. Keep getting better. Keep putting the work in, it will pay off! Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”What a very special treat today where I got to sit down with Coach Dave Ruekert and his superstar wife Ashley. They have a tremendous story to share with us and I know this will not be the only time we visit with them so they can share this incredible journey full of so many valuable lessons. This was the most emotional show that I’ve ever done, and I felt so connected with them in this conversation of what they went through with this incredible story of what they went through with their daughter. This show will offer all of us hope, inspiration, the depths of emotions, the true human experience between parents and a child and the value that we all have with the connections that we have with each other. There will be more of this amazing story in future shows and I can’t wait to keep this conversation going. The importance of family and friends that come out of this first part is key. I loved how Ashley brought up the fact of the way she grew up with her extended family and the amazing lessons she learned from her journey - and to match it with Dave’s journey when they met, it really goes to show you how they were made for this moment to get through it together. They want to share this story, and this is just the beginning of them being huge difference makers for many people. If you want to, reach out to both.

“Send Coach John a message”Fun times at the Orthodontist! It was great to get out for a normal type of appointment and I actually found some fun moments from what would normally be something that most people want to avoid. Most of us know that sound of a drill at a dentist office and there a not many people that can say they like it - I don't care for it at all, but I've been down that road too many times in the 44 years or so I've been dealing with my severe dental issues. So, between getting out for a regular type appointment & having walked down that path many times before, I found a certain type of comfort with getting my life going again after all that we have had to do. It also got me thinking about how much I appreciate people & how much I missed seeing and talking with people too. The day before this happened, I got to go back to school where I had to clean up my classroom a little bit for the end of the year. Emotional to say the least. I missed that school. The kids in it along with the great staff that I get to work with. I sat in that dentist chair and thought long and hard about how the state of our country is right now, on so many levels, but mainly about how people treat each other and what I hope changes. This had a lot to do with listening to Mitch Albom - Tuesday People podcast. Check it out HERE. So as I was getting my wire fixed in that orthodontist chair & I thought about how people have plenty of fixing to do too. I know I have a ton of work to do on myself in order to get better. Hopefully you see a few things too that can get better in your life too. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Got up this morning, got a few things set for our final week of our classes online & I found this passage from John Maxwell that I had to share with you to start the week off right. "A Great Attitude is your Greatest Asset" was the title of the thoughts for today and I found it as a great quick read on a Monday. He mentions from Dennis Waitley in the "Winners Edge", that the difference maker is all in the attitude of someone, not the aptitude. I love this statement "I cannot always choose what happens to me, but I can always choose what happens in me. Some things in life are beyond my control. Some things are within it. My attitude in the areas beyond my control CAN be the difference maker. My attitude in the areas that I do control WILL be the difference maker." Starting off today, I need to remind myself about this - heck, every day I need to remind myself about it. As I recorded this today I was thinking how soon I would need this reminder. I hope I remember it when I need it. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”I found so many fantastic thoughts and ideas from the book "Raise Your Game" by Alan Stein Jr. One I had to share with you is what he talked about being a mismatch and you know what? I totally agree with him on this one. He mentions the power of negativity over positivity and that we must come up with basically 5 times as many positive moments, interactions, experiences, etc., to overcome each negative one. I brough up a recent podcast too from John O'Leary - so recent in that it just came out today June 4, 2020. Find it HERE. Some powerful connections about the power of love and how that overcomes negativity for sure. So go out and grab the book by Alan Stein, Jr. and make sure you are listening to John O'Leary's podcasts and reading his books too, "On Fire" was his first best seller and "In Awe" is his 2nd book that just came out and it's already selling in HUGE numbers. By the way.. have I told you lately that I appreciate you?? Well I do. I know the time it takes to follow someone and spend a few minutes here and there to listen to what he or she has to say.

“Send Coach John a message”Starting out my day with a few thoughts from John Maxwell is always a good start to any of my days. Building Trust is probably the biggest thing in a relationship, and we are all in need of some of that now for sure. There are so many things that we all need to do in building this with people & it really starts by us working on ourselves. You know, one of the most difficult people you will ever have to face is the person in the mirror in front of you. Trust implies accountability, predictability, and reliability. We need to work on these things - all of us. Everything that has been going on in the last week and a half or so - it is dependent on each of us to take these lessons and apply them to our lives. I'd love to hear how you plan on doing this or what ideas you have to make things better in your life & thereby making things better in the lives of those that are connected to you.

“Send Coach John a message”Amazing and powerful topic that came to me in my readings from John Maxwell on the important value of Listening. In today's world with everything happening with the pandemic along with protests all over the place about the tragic death of George Floyd, this topic is something that can help so much in the scary times we are in. The value of listening and its connections to relationships is something we really need to connect with and look to improve upon. This topic can help us all out in so many ways. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Woke up today my friends feeling a bit down, sad, angry; heck I felt like that last night too... in fact many days lately. To watch & see what is happening in our country today, the world too - and it's nothing new, it's the horrible things that people do to each other throughout history; it's just sucking the life out of all of us! I woke up this morning to see the news on a burning building, rioting & looting in Minneapolis, Minnesota over George Floyd's death at the hands of police. All of this should make US ALL feel sad, angry, upset, even hopeless a little bit too as to what is going to happen to all of us. Part of the hope that I'm looking for comes from me doing something and becoming a better person to help others and it also comes from my faith in God. Folks, my show, my opinion.... humans haven't gotten things right over our entire history. Now, we have done plenty of good things - but we sure have messed up a lot too. If we are so conceited and think that we know everything and that we are so smart and that life begins and ends with us being in charge of everything, well I'm here to say I don't believe that to be true at all. There is a God, there is a higher power that has given us the ability to make choices. Many of us have not made good choices all throughout our lives and throughout the history of our planet. WE ALL NEED TO GET BETTER my friends. We all need to improve the way we treat each other, understand each other, help each other, work & live with each other, the list goes on and on about the things we need to get better at. We cannot wait for the governments & politicians of the world to fix this by laws, by force, by deciding for us what we can do and what we can't do. We need to make the changes to ourselves first. To be kinder to ourselves and others. To think differently. To act differently. To change things in our world for the better. Is there one easy answer for all of this? NOPE. It's many things that have to be fixed. Do I have all the answers? NOPE. But like I did this morning - I got up, cried a little bit and I made a choice that I cannot sit back anymore thinking that these problems and issues that are happening far away from me, doesn't affect me. Everything affects all of us! The great Jim Rohn said "All of us needs each of us and Each of us, needs all of us." We cannot get through life without other people's help, and I'm just saying we need more people helping each other. I didn't plan this out too well I think as I'm rambling here. I had other material I wanted to share with you in today's show. Something told me I had to go off the rails a little bit with this one today. I'm just too sad, tired, upset, angry, etc., to not do this. I must keep trying to make myself a better human being to make a difference with more people. We all need to do that my friends. Thank you for putting up with and listening to my thoughts this morning. Do me a favor - share this and respond to this. Whether you let me know what your ideas, feelings and thoughts are about this or you just look to go get better & help others... that's great too. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Saw a great thought from Napoleon Hill - "The individual who only does enough work to get by seldom gets much more than "by." What a great reminder about effort. Life is really about what you put into it; you generally get out of it. It is a reminder also that our harshest critic and our toughest competitor should be ourselves. This was a great reflection for me on a day of bigger reflection and celebration. My wife and I celebrate our 30th Anniversary today - we watched our wedding video last night and talk about a lot of reflections... it also reminded me why I want to continue to work hard, for my wife and family. We have a lot of history here and I need to keep putting some time & effort into this life we have built. That will never stop for me. I hope it does not for you and your life & loved ones too.

“Send Coach John a message”Another fabulous start to my day and hopefully to yours too - whenever you listen to the great conversation I had with Coach Dave Ruekert. We finish our discussion with the Coffee Bean book and Coach brings up some powerful thoughts from the journey he and his family are on with their daughter. He shares why Love always seems to win over fear. There is a lot of fear now in the world and this is a great reminder that we will get through these times, if we focus in on the love that is around us and inside of us. This was a very powerful conversation that I know will make a difference with you and anyone you share this with. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”Got the chance to sit down with two good friends and both are full of lessons to teach us all. Abel Sanchez & Brandon Miller, met in high school - roomed in college together at Michigan State University & Abel has wanted to get Brandon on for awhile, so we finally pulled it off. Here are a couple of fellas that are loving life, making a difference with people, have awesome attitudes and they do a good job at keeping in touch with their old teacher - who really appreciates it. We have a fun conversation with some of their funny stories and memories from the past along with some positive lessons too for the times that we are going through as well. These 2 will be on again for sure as there are plenty of topics to dive into with them for their thoughts and perspectives. Reach out to Abel at: [email protected] and Brandon at: [email protected] I love the energy these guys bring and they brighten my day whenever I get the chance to talk to them. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”There is a myth that seems to stop people in their tracks when it comes to Leadership. The key is to remember it's not All or Nothing! You don't have to be #1 in your organization to have an effect of change on others. Like Morrie Schwartz says in "Tuesdays With Morrie" - Mitch Albom's bestselling book about his college professor - "What's wrong with being #2?" The key is that anyone can make a difference with others, any time, any place. It's not just saved for CEO's to do that. Another key is that the only competition that we need to get better than is ourselves. Again, The Man in the Mirror idea comes back to remind us, that we just need to keep moving forward and improve on our own leadership skills. This is a powerful reminder for this week and every day.

“Send Coach John a message”Where has the time gone?? This is podcast #400 for me and to tell the truth, I'm really proud of myself as I've stuck with this and I'm more fired up about it now than ever before! To celebrate show #400, I wanted to put together this monumental show highlighting a fabulous group of Difference Makers that I'm just blessed to be a part of. Joining me today is the world-famous trio of Tricia Miller, Dr. Jeff Lip and Denyse Kovac. Jeff and I have been connected for a while now and thanks to him I got connected with Tricia who's a rock star counselor down in Texas. Denyse is a superstar from Canada who reached out to me after she heard my podcast and we've been chatting back and forth a bit and she's been a fantastic guest on Jeff's podcast too. The four of us sat down to share some thoughts about how we can all look to improve during this world crisis of the COVID-19 Virus. Gary V put out a text that said, "Now is the time to learn "stuff" and do "stuff". I've been trying to capture that mindset of wanting to take some time to learn new stuff and do the things that I have not had time to work on in the past. Trying to capture the time to get better at things. To read more. To improve my relationships with my wife and kids. To start learning new skills. The way the world is changing, we cannot remain the same, that's for dang sure! I figured this would be a great time to talk about this with some great people. Denyse gets credit for putting this group together. She put out a FB message group called the "Difference Makers" and it was Jeff, me, her and Jeremy Todd. Jeremy could not join us for this recording, but he will be HUGE part of our next discussion, whoever that will be. Tricia came on board through the work we've been doing with together with Jeff. That is another lesson for all of this - hanging with great people during some rocky and trying times, that is key in life. I am honored and humbled to be part of this group. Please reach out to them and check out what they are all about. Find Tricia Miller at: triciamiller.com (updates coming soon there) and her email: [email protected] Dr. Jeff Lip can be found at jefflip.com and get in touch with Denyse at: [email protected] Don't forget to check out Jeremy Todd at jeremytodd.com.

“Send Coach John a message”Attitude is everything is what the saying is & I'm finding it's totally true. I found something from John Maxwell again on the importance of our attitude and how it's something that is really a full-time job to work on it. It connects our past to our present, which connects to our future. I love the reminder that it's our best friend or worst enemy. The biggest thing is that we totally control it. In today's world with the Covid-19 virus affecting everything it seems; our attitude is something that we (I know I do for sure) need to improve upon every day. We need to have the mindset of coming out better from this world-wide scary reality. So many areas to work on for sure - but our attitude can produce the biggest results if we look to improve it during this time. In fact we don't ever want to stop working on it. Once you stop working on your attitude and working on yourself, I think you just let the external factors take over and they affect everything you do in life. That's something that none of us want.

“Send Coach John a message”What a powerful reminder to start out the week on how important Courage is. It's something all of us need in our lives - especially it seems during these uncertain times and worries. "You must do the thing you think you cannot do" - those words from Eleanor Roosevelt remind us that we all have things we think we can't do, but deep down inside, we know we must at least try. Every time we try, every time we overcome fear, we set the table for our future of doing greater things and opening up doors we never saw coming. This week - heck, even today - try to work through something that you think you cannot do. I know I have plenty to choose from too. Make it a fantastic week. Thanks for listening.

“Send Coach John a message”I always start my day with a cup of coffee - or a couple, but today I got to start with an inspirational talk with the one and only Coach Dave Ruekert and the book, "The Coffee Bean" This fantastic and life-changing story written by Jon Gordon and Damon West, was sent to me by Coach Ruekert. It made such an impact on me that not only did I have to get my own copy of it, but I shared that one with our girls basketball team so they could take in the lessons from this hard hitting book. Coach and I had a great discussion about a few of the points from this book, we had a lot of fun doing it and we look forward to having another talk soon on some of the other points from the book. If you are looking for a book to read - go out and order this one. It's a quick read and you'll love the story. :-) Thanks for listening.
