The Grind-Cast

What does it take to win? It starts with your mindset and the mindset of your team. You have to have a clear vision along with the process it takes to accomplish that vision, and most importantly you will need the discipline to execute every single day! Check out today's GRINDcast!

We've got a very special guest this week on the GRINDcast, local Emmy Award winning TV personality, Celina Pompeani Mathison! If you're from Western PA or you're a fan of the Pittsburgh Penguins, she needs zero introduction.

Pressure is a privilege! The way that you digest the pressure that you're faced with makes a huge difference. If you can't handle the pressure you're facing now, how will you handle the pressures of the next level? The problems at the next level don't get any easier, the difference is that you get stronger during the process!

The habits you form will either make you or break you. Anybody can set a goal and most people can work towards that goal when everything is going well and they "feel like it." But what happens when life punches you in the face? This is where having habits of discipline starts to separate people!

If you follow me on IG, you've seen my stories. During my morning Mind, Body, Spirit, I often post snapshots of what I'm reading. This week on the GRINDcast I'm unloading some of my morning notes starting with if you're pulled towards greatness. Check it out!

I get a lot of messages through social media. Recently, someone asked about how to encourgage a business partner to develop personally & someone else reached out asking if old habits pop up despite new levels of discipline. I figured these were both topics that were worth diving into on The GRINDcast, check it out!

I was spending some time with a group of young studs in our office earlier this week and they were asking about the keys to succeed in this business and in life in general. I had to be real with them and I have to do the same with you. This is what it takes to succeed and we're not sugar coating anything on today's GRINDcast.

This week we have on my partner in Arias-Dlabik, Tristan Dlabik. This young stud is one of the most coachable people I've ever had the privilege to lead. At just 23 years old, Tristan cleared over $1,000,000 on his 2021 1099. He knows exactly what it takes to succeed quickly at a young age.

I've learned not to rush things that need time to grow and greatness takes time! People often become impatient during the process, but you need to remember, it's just that, a process! Check out today's Grindcast!

Last time Bulldog came through, he brought this young stud, Tyler Teague. Tyler started an internship with their agency last year while still in college and cleared over $150K for the year! Tyler talks about juggling the schedule and how he avoids the pitfalls of so many young people his age. Check it out!

We're keeping it casual this week & talking about self-care and managing your personal life. Just like an athlete needs recovery, we all need to take care of ourselves. What is your recovery routine & how do you manage your personal life?

We had my friend, Dalton "Hercules" Rosta in the studio. Dalton just signed a huge contract with Bellator and is currently 6-0 in his professional MMA career. We dig deep into Dalton's upbringing and everything that led him to become the man he is today. You can't miss this one!

Last week on Instagram we threw up an Ask Me Anything post. This week on the GRINDcast, we're tackling some of those questions. Shout out to Chloe, Byron, Joey, Melissa, Max, Ana, & Ali for providing some great topics!

This week my good friend Bulldog came through the GRINDcast studio. Pat was one of my trainees back in the day & went on to become one of the best leaders in our company. With over $25K a month in residual income, this man knows exactly what it takes to succeed in our business!

This week I brought in the face of Arias Good News, Alyssa Weston to co-host a very special episode. We sat down with Arias Agency's house giveaway recipient, Lamara. Lamara is a hard working, faith-oriented mother of two who we were able to connect with via help from Victory church. This one is special! Check out today's GRINDcast!

This week I have on my friend, professional MMA fighter, Jake Lowry. Jake wrestled at Thiel College and ranked 3rd in the nation in 2014. Since then, he transitioned to MMA and holds an overall record of 8-0, with 6 amateur wins & 2 professional wins.

This week we've got my dawg, Gregg "The Lumberjack" Rudolph! Gregg ended 2021 as the #1 Regional Director in our organization and was awarded MVP of our agency. Tune in to this week's GRINDcast!

This week's topic is Follow The Leader. If you stand any chance of succeeding in leadership, 9 times out of 10 you have to start as a good follower. The most successful people that I've had the privilege to lead are typically some of the most coachable business men and women I've met. Find the right leader, take notes, and implement!

This week we've got the Arias Agency 2021 #1 Agent, #1 GA, and Rookie of the Year, Spencer Kozej. Spencer dominated the stage at our end of year Arias Awards. Check out today's GRINDcast!

We're a month in to 2022. Where are you at on your goals you set at the beggining of the month?

The Steelers just solidified their spot in the playoffs earlier this week, so what better time to drop our podcast with Steelers Running Back, Trey Edmunds. If one thing is for sure, its that Trey & his family know what it takes to compete at the highest levels. >

This week on the GRINDcast we have Roger Smith, former CEO of American Income Life & National Income Life. His new book, "The Most Unlikely Leader" will be released later this year and it's available for pre-order now!

This week on the GRINDcast we have my friend, Pastor Stephen Chandler. Stephen runs Union Church in Maryland & they're getting ready to open their 4th location in PG County. He and I met awhile back at a John Maxwell event and we immediately hit it off. This guy is a beast in and out of the church. Check it out!

This week on the GRINDcast, we have my friend and CEO of American Income Life & National Income Life, Steve Greer. Steve has been in this business a long time and knows exactly what kind of sacrifice it takes to succeed. Check it out!

This week on the GRINDcast we're talking about failure. It's amazing to me how some people use failure as proof that something "just isn't for them" and they allow themselves to quit. You have to understand that failure and success go hand in hand. You can't have one without the other. What determines your level of success is how you deal with failure!
