Coach John Daly - Coach to Expect Success - Podcasts

“Send Coach John a message” Found an awesome & funny thought here that is right on target in our lives today. It came from The Mindfulness Meditation Institute (@TrainingMindful) and they reminded us that: “Life has no remote. Get up and change it yourself.” - Sushant Singh.  What a true statement for each and everyone of us. If we don’t like “our channel”, change it. If we don’t like the “inp...

“Send Coach John a message” Saw this powerful post directed mainly at teachers, but it is total truth for everyone!!  From Chris Quinn (@ChrisQuinn64) - “Great leaders never forget what it’s like to be a teacher or a student.” This is one thing that I tried to get my students to understand every year I was a teacher. Life is all about always being a student, no matter if you are in school, working...

“Send Coach John a message” I found a great post that reminded me the importance of being a consistent person, every day!  This one comes from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) and it’s titled “Consistency Wins:  Because it’s not what you do once in a while that matters.  It’s what you do every day.”  I have been trying to work on this mindset for a long time and still haven’t figured it all out. B...

“Send Coach John a message” Finally got to have a guest on my show and it’s an easy home run to have Coach Dave Ruekert ( davidruekert@gmail.com ). There is a lot to catch up with him and this conversation not only does that, but also teaches some valuable lessons too.  Not only is he a great educator and coach, he’s an awesome friend and an all-star of a husband & father too.  The ups and dow...

“Send Coach John a message” Came across a good reminder for all of us as to how valuable this asset really is for all of us.  Coach the Coaches (@WinningCoaches) shared a quote from Kevin Gates which simply said, “Anything lost, can be found again, except for time wasted.”  Now, I know I have wasted plenty of time throughout my life that I can’t get back. The only thing from those times are lesson...

“Send Coach John a message” This difference-making guy keeps putting great thoughts out there. The guy, is Inky Johnson (@inkyjohnson) and the question he is sharing is -  “What can we learn from this?”  The “this” is everything going on in our lives! This got me to post this about what he shared:  Coach John Daly (@coachtosuccess) “Life always presents moments of learning…” I’m trying to remind m...

“Send Coach John a message” I saw this post from Sahil Bloom (@SahilBloom) who reminded us to  “Just show up.” It’s something that I’ve heard before but this one hit me a bit different with his notes that he left for himself. Here they are:  “The key in life: Show up.  Show up when it’s hard. Show up when it’s messy.  Show up when no-one’s watching. Show up when you don’t feel like it. Show up whe...

“Send Coach John a message” Once again, lessons pop up when I need them and it’s also connected to the fact that I still need to learn (or relearn) these important lessons again. Remember - Lesson repeated, until lesson learned. This teachable moment comes from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) “Bigger dreams call for healthier habits and healthier habits require more self discipline.” The reason t...

“Send Coach John a message” I ran across John O’Leary’s podcast (@JohnO’LearyInspries) and you can listen to it HERE .  It got me thinking about all the times we run into people, we never know what they are going through. We are all going through things, some good, some not so good.  If we can approach people with a bit more kindness, empathy, encouragement, etc., we might find some connections wi...

“Send Coach John a message” I found a unique post from Mindful Maven (@mindfulmaven_) where this quote from “Discipline” was shared with all of us: “Keep showing up, no matter how you feel.”  It’s a powerful reminder from a great source that we all need to be connected with in our lives, which is having discipline. There are many forms to this for all of us, but one of the main ingredients is this...

“Send Coach John a message” A wonderfully timed post came across my readings the other morning and it sure did make sense to me today. On my walk with our dog this morning, it was such a nice morning that helped me feel a bit better and able to get around without a lot of pain. The gratitude was flowing and I hope this gets you thinking about it too.  This post was shared by Gordana Biernat (@MyPo...

“Send Coach John a message” I came across this connection from my book that I’m reading (and it’s been a long, ongoing reading of it), “Arete - Activate Your Heroic Potential” by Brain Johnson. He brings up this idea about us looking to be “antifragile” and it’s connected to not being fragile - breaking or giving up, the moment life gets challenging. Life does indeed get challenging for ALL OF US…...

“Send Coach John a message” I saw a recent post, again from a former student of mine, that opened up my eyes to catch the lessons that they are sharing. Kiara shared how she needs to keep being a bit nicer to herself as she looks back a bit to see that she has accomplished quite a lot over the last couple of years. That her goals keep evolving, as she does too. This is a lesson that I needed to se...

“Send Coach John a message” Another great reminder for me and anyone else willing to keep learning through life. This one from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) where this was shared:  “Your whole life is a reflection of what you’re giving your attention to.” This is something that I need to keep working on every day!! Remember, where our focus goes, our energy flows!!   Thanks for listening.  Plea...

“Send Coach John a message” It’s mid July, which for baseball, means it’s the All-Star Break. A great player and coach, Clint Hurdle (@ClintHurdle13) shared this super easy thought for all of us to connect to. “Be a friend. Be a helper. Be kind. That's it.”  In fact, I mentioned in today’s episode how I need to reach out to a couple of people - I need to pause this and do that…. There, I feel...

“Send Coach John a message” When I saw this post, it reminded me that courage can be quiet and not always a loud roar, but it also signaled to me that I can be (and need to be) more courageous in my life for sure.  This came from The Mindfulness Meditation Institute (@TrainingMindful) where it was shared - “Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day, sa...

“Send Coach John a message” I found a post that really got me thinking about things and there are some thoughts of mine that come with it too. (of course there is, that’s what my show is all about)  This one came from Motivational Quotes (@motivational) where this reminder was posted for all of us, and I can see that it covers all humans, just about every day!  “You’re being tested because you’re...

“Send Coach John a message” Again, amazing like always I see a post of something when I need it the most. Late yesterday I found out a former student of mine passed away. I know his family well as I also taught his two siblings. His two parents are a big part of the school community where I taught for 30 years. The post came from POSITIVITY (@PositivitySaid) where it was an image of 3 framed pictu...

“Send Coach John a message” I found a post that fit exactly with what I did yesterday with one of my best friends. From Seek Wiser (@SeekWiser_), “Proof the best things in life are free: Sunrises, Sunsets, Hugs, Conversations, Love, Waking Up, Nature, Laughter.” The breakfast that I had with one of my best friends, Scott, got me thinking about the fact that I’ve been through all the items on this...

“Send Coach John a message” Saw a post that got me thinking about what some people call other people crazy, when they look to help others win.  This came from Power of Positivity (@LIVEpositivity) “Call me crazy but I love to see people happy and succeeding. Life is a journey, not a competition.” Just imagine - like my good buddy Coach Rich Bowers told me and my leadership students so many years a...

“Send Coach John a message” I just came across one of the simplest, yet strongest reminders for life and it came from Mind Essentials (@Mind_Essentials). This simple thought for all of us is: “When you get tired, learn to rest - not quit!” - Banksy. In today’s busy world with so many things going on, it is really easy to keep pushing ourselves. There are moments for sure where we need to pause, ta...

“Send Coach John a message” Inky Johnson (@inkyjohnson) seems like he’s always been helping others with his life story, his examples, his reflections, etc., and Mac Stephens (@MacStephens) is frequently helping to get Inky’s lessons out for others to see and reflect on. I found this one and again, it seemed like it was a directed for me to pick up so I can keep working on myself.  “Growth comes wh...

“Send Coach John a message” Right off the bat when I saw this, I mistook it for someone else and after I recorded this episode, I realized this was not the sports broadcaster that I thought it was.  My apologies for mixing this up.  Steve Keating (@LeadToday) put this out there:   “If you're not making progress then you're probably not making anything else either.”   This post got me thi...

“Send Coach John a message” Found a double stacker today with some good reminders for all of us. The first one came from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) where this was shared: “Allow yourself to shine without the desire to be seen.” As I was sharing some thoughts here in this episode about this post, I started to share something else from a post I also shared - this one came from Mind Essentials...

“Send Coach John a message” Found this powerful reminder that is right on target for all of us. From Psyche Wizard (@PsycheWizard) where they shared this: “Your discipline is your product, your name is your brand, your habits are your investments.”  Each of these are certainly things that I am still working on, and really, always will be.  My discipline is something that is always on my stove cook...
