#120: Structure = Freedom: Rules For Life
EThe ability to do what you want, when you want, how you want. Freedom. That's what we're going after, and it's why I recommend everyone cut out negativity, useless chores, and soul-sucking relationships. When you eliminate clutter, you create freedom. But too much freedom can be crippling. A life without rules opens you up to distraction and inefficiency. Tons of free time lulls you into the idea that you'll just slip into the life if your dreams. You can avoid that complacency by building structure and accountability into your life. Structure and accountability come from Rules for Living. In this episode, I take you through the critical, simple steps that will help you create your own rules for life so you can wake up and dominate every day with passion and excitement. I also take you through some of my own rules and give you some examples of the key areas around which you can make your own. Today's Topics Include: 0:25: A "Thank You" to listeners for your support of Renegade Radio 2:52: New music I've been digging the past couple weeks 5:26: Recent work on fascial stretching with Ann Frederick 6:39: Diving into today's topic on how to dominate your morning 9:40: The one thing to never, ever, EVER do in the morning 10:24: A simple, success building habit you can build first thing in the morning 12:37: How to create freedom in your life 16:50: Craig Ballantyne's "Rules to Live By" and ways you can apply them to your life 18:44: The one question to ask yourself at the end of every day? 21:20: A life ule that will keep you in shape 365 days per year 24:08: My own life goals that have transformed the way I think, live, and feel 28:19: Why arguing is an enormous waste of time and how to avoid it 31:43: Perhaps the most important life rule for keeping a positive outlook on life 34:39: The critical reason to create life rules and how to get started on creating your own This episode is brought to you by Onnit Total Human Optimization.

#119: The #1 Skill of Happy, Successful People
EAs a kid I had zero self-confidence or communication skills. I was super shy and socially awkward. I never thought I was good enough. I doubted myself constantly. I was scared of my own shadow and constantly lived in fear. This lasted for more than half my life, well into my late twenties and early thirties. Then I realized something had to change. Epictetus, the great stoic philosopher, asked, "How long can you afford to put off who you really want to be?" For me, the answer was, "Not one second longer." So I set out on a mission to become the confident person I always wanted to be. I learned how to communicate and build meaningful relationships. I learned to put others first and make them feel important. In this episode, I'll take you through my journey, step-by-step. You'll learn how I went from hiding in a corner with my head down to being able to play Taylor Swift in a lip synch battle on stage in front of over 1,000 people. And you'll get simple, concise action steps that you can implement right now. Follow these tips and you'll be on your way to becoming the confident, outgoing person who owns every room you walk in to. Topics include: · My story · Where to start · The first thing you should do when leaving the house in the morning · The most important word to remember · How to be a leader · Local resources you can tap into to improve yourself · The one book you should re-read every year · The importance of the ball always being in your court · Why you have to be proactive instead of reactive · Getting out of your comfort zone · Why "connectors" win · How to overcome fear and self doubt · What fear is really telling you · Why screwing up doesn't matter · And what to do when you do · A killer morning routine to help you dominate your day · Your life's purpose This episode is brought to you by Onnit Total Human Optimization.Onnit is one of the premier nutrition, supplement, and fitness equipment companies in the world, and they are leading the charge on Onnit is one of the premier nutrition, supplement, and fitness equipment companies in the world, and they are leading the charge on sustainably producing earth-grown, natural products that make a huge impact on how you look, feel, and perform.
