Live Life Loudly

I was talking to someone last night and I said something that made me think a little deeper about the day and myself. We have an obligation to move forward every single day. Be it with our business, our family, ANYTHING that you are involved in. Every day is another opportunity to take progress. One step forward. One goal accomplished. One victory. Some days you will NOT make a step forward. You may even take a step or two backwards. There are 365 days in a year. That is an opportunity for 365 steps forward. Imagine how far you can get in your lifetime if you just keep pushing forward each day. You can go anywhere!     Hit subscribe and support the show. Leave a review and let me know what you think.

Last week I took a little bit of a step back from social media. In fact, I haven't used Twitter, Periscope or any of the other "secondary" forms of a social media in a very long time. The gorilla in the social media game is Facebook. I stepped back a little bit from it. Why? I started feeling a bit "attacked" by some things… things that bothered me because it just didn't make sense. I had to step back and look at it and ask myself if I was really being "attacked" or was it just this overreaction to something. I also started finding myself annoyed by the constant barrage of political propaganda being spewed back and forth. I was annoyed at the "This person did this… and you won't believe what happened NEXT" type stories that tease you into a click bait site that drives up their revenue with ads and nothing at all newsworthy. The internet has changed since it first came out. Social media actually became less social and more of a curtain that people hide behind to avoid real interaction.   Hit subscribe and

How much is your dirt worth?   When you are dead and gone, will people remember you for your material gains or for the time you spent with them? In the end, chasing the dollar will likely mean very little to the loved ones we leave behind. Is making money bad? Heck NO. We have to have it to live… but don't let chasing it cost your family in the end. Hit subscribe and support the show. Leave a review and let me know what you think.

I met Justin Maxim in person for the first time in August 2016 when he was shooting the documentary on my journey with Danny Page. In this interview I talk with Max, what he prefers to be called, about his background, his thought process when filming, what he is learning through watching others and his future projects. You can check out Max on Facebook and Instagram. Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/justin.m.maxim Instagram: @plantbasedmax     Hit subscribe and support the show.

It's amazing to think I have done 50 episodes so far. AMAZING!!   So what does this mean? It means I am JUST GETTING STARTED!   The most downloaded and listened to episode so far is Episode 45 with Danny Page. http://www.l3podcast.com/episode45/   This episode, along with the ones I did with Kolby Kolibas, were some of my favorites. This means I need to do more interviews! Episode 20: http://www.l3podcast.com/episode20/ Episode 35: http://www.l3podcast.com/episode35/   I have a few people I am talking to now that will allow me to get those interviews off the ground. I'm also looking at how I can get more listeners, advertisers and sponsors. I see some great things on the horizon with the Live Life Loudly podcast.   New production, new equipment, new interviews, new episodes… it's gonna be a BLAST!!!   Hit subscribe and support the show.

No plugs this week… I just wanted to talk about the events that happened on 9/11/2001 on this 15 year anniversary.   Live Life Loudly!! Be good to yourself and be good to others!!

I've mentioned it before… YOU have had to have heard it before. We are the people we surround ourselves with… "The company you keep" "The average of the 5 closest people to you."   So who are you surrounding yourself with right now? Are you surrounding yourself with people that will encourage you, push you, make you take a hard look at what you are saying or doing?   OR   Are you surrounding yourself with someone that enables you? Somebody that tells you that it's OK that you had the entire cheesecake, the bottle of whiskey, the full weekend binge watching Netflix?   The people that push you to be a better version of who you want to be are FAR more beneficial than anyone else. Does that mean you have to lose those friends? No… you just have to chose who to listen to when it counts.   Hit subscribe and support the show. Leave a review and let me know what you think.

"I want to have an easier life!" "I just wish this was easier to do."   Sounds good right? Easy would be nice. Let's look at this from a different perspective… "I am tired, I'll just drive through that fast food drive-thru. It will be easier." "I don't want to go to the gym. I am sore from the workout I did 2 weeks ago still. It would be easier if I gave it just ONE MORE DAY." Easy isn't always easier. Easy is hard.   Easy is going to eventually be hard on your body, your relationships, your business… everything. Let me break it down: Easy is going to the drive-thru for a cheeseburger and fries. Hard is spending Wednesday and Sunday prepping all of your meals for the week. One will get you overweight, potentially give you high blood pressure, diabetes… not even talking about the cost factor over time. Easy is sitting on the couch and getting that marathon session of that favorite TV show in. Hard is getting up at 4AM, doing something physical and educating yourself to be a better person. Easy will

How do you recharge your batteries? I'm not talking about the batteries in your vehicle, your game controller or anything like that… your physical and mental "battery". We all work, have stresses and personal and professional challenges. When you run yourself long enough… you have to recharge the battery that runs YOU. Tools I use that work… Meditate (and after the recording of this I learned SO MUCH MORE about meditation) I will just stop and take a few deep breaths and set my focus on one task to finish. Get away from what is causing you to get drained… and just walk. Just ignore it for a few minutes. How do YOU recharge your batteries?   Hit subscribe and support the show.

The universe works in incredible ways. On 09/24/2015 I saw a video on Facebook from a man I didn't know, Danny Page. That video touched a button and struck a chord with me that prompted me to send him a message and thank him. We continued to talk often and then… almost 11 months later, Danny and I sit down and talk about his immersive One on One coaching program, The Power of Truth. Check out Danny's backstory from the great people at The Mindset Mountain Podcast ( http://mindsetmtn.com/2016/05/31/existence-danny-page/ ) I had JUST gone through the program with Danny and his team. Listen to this podcast to hear the story about the weekend, the program and how to get into The Power of Truth yourself. Danny's Site: www.dannypagetruth.com   Hit subscribe and support the show.

As I am recording this, I am 5 days away from leaving for Arizona to work with Danny Page in a one on one program that he calls "The Power of Truth". I will be tested physically, mentally, and emotionally… and I have been trying to prepare for what was ahead. (As of the date this podcast goes live, I am IN AZ…)   I've been trying to prepare myself as best as I can. Drinking more water than I typically have on a daily basis, walking more, anticipating what I will need…   This is where I had to stop. I had to stop anticipating. I had to be willing to allow myself to be out of control of everything… trust the process.     Hit subscribe and support the show. Leave a review and let me know what you think.

"Hey, can you finish this project for me?"   How many times have you been at work, in a group setting, anywhere… and heard that asked of you? How many times did you take on the task?   Ask yourself a question… Did you get any value from that? When it was done, would be you get the credit? Will you get an acknowledgment from anyone for YOUR work?   Look at the sentence again…   "Hey, can YOU do this project for ME?"   They don't want to do it… and want someone else to take on their responsibility.   Show the true value that you have in yourself. It is fine to work on a team to help out, it's another things to take on your work AND the work of others. Show the value in yourself…   Hit subscribe and support the show.

Bonus… Podcast air 08/14/2016 will be with me and Danny talking about the experience.   What does this mean for the podcast? It's ONLY going to get better.

WHO you surround yourself with and WHO you listen to can make all the difference in the world with YOUR attitude.   We have ALL heard it before… "You are the average of the 5 people of you surround yourself with." THIS IS TRUE. People that surround themselves with a bunch of angry people… will be angry eventually.   People that surround themselves with a bunch of fit people… will work and be fit eventually.   People that surround themselves with positive people… will be more positive eventually.   Test it for yourself and prove me wrong if you want.

We all are on a journey… I've talked about that in the intro to the podcasts in the past… and it is true. We are born and we die. Those are two instances in life that WE ultimately can not control. It's what we do in between our first and our last breath that determine who we are, how we live and how we are all remembered. We are on a journey. You wouldn't set out on a long trip with no idea of where you are going or how to get there, right? You would use GPS… or if you are OLD SCHOOL, you use a map. Life is just like this. You can guess your way through it, but in the end, you are going to HAVE to make decisions on the path you take. If you know the destination, those decisions are much easier. You have to make a map… a plan. Burning all of it didn't CHANGE anything except the mentality that I knew I needed to have. I had to be open to being uncomfortable for the time being. I was reborn and starting fresh with a new list. I sat down and I wrote down, again with pen and paper, every aspect of what I wanted i

Am I worth it? AM I WORTH IT?? I had self-doubt about if I deserved to be in the same room as all of the people that would be attending the talks in Scottsdale in a few weeks. I started to second-guess myself. BAD Jason… NO COOKIES!! There going to be highly successful entrepreneurs and business leaders there. I'm not at that level… I'm nowhere CLOSE to that level yet. Then… I started to ask myself this question "What better way to be more successful? BE AROUND people that are already there!!" If it were easy… Everyone would be doing it! YOU ARE WORTH IT!! I AM WORTH IT!!   Hit subscribe and support the show. Leave a review and let me know what you think.
