102: Crushing all obstacles with Nick Santonastasso

Nick Santonastasso is one of the most impressive individuals that I've ever had the pleasure of interviewing. We live in a world of people that are consistently saying "I can't!" when faced with obstacles that are no where near what Nick goes through on a daily basis.

Listen to my interview with Nick as we discuss: The rare disease that he was born with that led to him having an underdeveloped right arm and underdeveloped legs. The moment when he quit feeling sorry for himself and everything changed. His workout routine and his fitness accomplishments and goals. The advice he would give someone that has been stuck feeling sorry for themselves and needs to turn things around. You can't help but be totally fired up after listening to this one!

101: Stop waiting for "perfect"

I'm pretty sure that we've all said things like "I'm going to get started on MONDAY!" or "I'm going to get started on the FIRST OF NEXT MONTH!" or "I'm going to get started in JANUARY!". The issue with these statements is that we are looking for the "perfect" time to start instead of just doing our best to get started right away. I think that we all know that too often "Monday", the "first of the month", and "January" may prove to be less than ideal as well.....and we never get started. Listen to this episode and then start taking action right away.......stop waiting for "perfect"!
