Daily Positive Action Plans with Big Dave

Do you stand there and fight for your dreams and desires or do you run the other way and stay in a cloud of fear? I am fearful a lot and every day have to deal with the fight or flight issues of the mind. Ghostrider from Vapor Trails the Rush album comes to mind when I think of moving into the unknown. There are 4 songs Rush wrote about fear and I would suggest you track those down and listen to t...

What is the cause of mind numbing activity? Is it because we use too much of our mind during the day and we just want to unplug or is it something deeper? We explore this thought and the meditation has something to say about it. With Netflix, Fortnite and the new Red Dead Redemption 2 coming out, how do we stay engaged instead of zoning out? Your thoughts? Hope you had a GREAT day

It's funny what goes through my mind when I have to think of a title for each podcast. I think of Fallout Boy and their odd song titles and then I try to bring a phrase related to the topic. Today we talk about how your subconscious remembers what you tell it well after the moment has passed and how that thought affects your positive thinking. There is a book I mention in the podcast. It is Self T...

The word is contemporaneous. It means as close to the event. This is one of the three S.A.T words I would try to use in a sentence this week with anyone you engage in conversation. Anything from football to politics to current events. When you are trying to think of how to implant your three S.A.T. words in the conversation, it is going to be real difficult to get mad at the topic at the same time...

What did it mean to you when people said, " act your age not your shoe size"? I always thought about my shoe size and wondered if those people even knew what my shoe size was. Negative people will bring you down where positive people will lift you up. I implore you to find Charlie "Tremendous" Jones on You tube and watch a guy who is full of energy and life. Let's keep this month going with positi...

This week we talk about listening to your mind and really working to understand it. I am reading 5 days ahead because I will be out of town and I thought it best to read ahead. Enjoy and YOU go and have GREAT day! Big Dave

Today we talk about the stuff you put into your mind is what comes out of your mind. Just like food. I mention a few books that I am listening to and also recommend a couple of motivational speakers to help kick start your day.. Thanks for listening and please share this podcast if you like it.

Here I am again with another block of awesome mediations. It was either abandon the project out of embarrassment or suck it up and do another round of multiple meditations. I chose the latter. Since this month is about the mind, clearly there is an internal struggle to keep on keeping on and I hope this inspires you to also keep on keeping on even thought the thoughts in your mind want to keep you...

In this episode, the meditation, every improvement is a step in the right direction but it must be maintained with a positive attitude. There are so many new inventions that surround us daily. Some would say that they are more like daily improvements. What do you think?

In this meditation we talk about belief being the engine that helps the mind with the conception of an idea in order to achieve the goal you have set. Momentum is a big key as well. I talk about a personal goal I had last year and how different it is today just because of belief. Going to the gym right now so I will talk to you tomorrow. Feel free to leave a message with any thoughts on the topic...

Today we talk about how you can unlock your imagination and really focus on important stuff. We go back to what was important as a child and making that bridge back to today to achieve greatness. I encourage you to think about today's meditation and what you thought about when I was sharing my thoughts. This is Big Dave and you go and have a GREAT day!

In this meditation we share some examples of companies that have persevered with good ideas in the face of ridicule and doubt. When you come up with a good idea it needs to incubate. An article I found explains the birth of the UPC code and scanning groceries, http://www.cnn.com/TECH/computing/9907/08/1970.idg/index.html. Imagine the possibilities of your future. This is Big Dave and you go and ha...

What's incubating in your mind? Is it the newest start up or just a better way to make an ice cream bar? These are some of the things we talk about today on the first day of October. We are in the fall season and into the 4th quarter of the year. It's gonna be a great month! Remember to share this podcast with your friends. This is Big Dave and you go and have a great day!

Great meditation today, Sunday, to end a great month of going the extra mile. Really like how this month ended and the remix of the Golden Rule. I encourage you really take in the idea of making it a practice to treat others as though you were the others! Walk in the shoes of the other person for one mile. How would that change your perspective? This is Big Dave and you go and have a GREAT day!

Today's meditation really ties it all together. We talk about the different work experiences and instructions on how to make them better. How many of you read the instructions half way through and then figure out a better way to have a few bolts left after it is built?

My people! I have missed a fews day so I have grouped them all in this podcast to catch up.

Today's meditation took me down the rabbit hole when I read the sentence, " When you are working because you like what you do, the money will follow". There are so many books written based on this quote and with good reason. When you read it, one begins to dream about all the possibilities of making money just by loving what they do. Today's meditation is talking about your job but I challenge you...

In this episode we talk about a blog that we stumbled upon when we were preparing this podcast. The blog is called TheMuse and the link is https://www.themuse.com/advice/7-ways-to-become-your-boss-dream-employee. I found that these 7 ideas tie into the meditation of the day. If we work as if we were the boss and made decisions on that premise one day we may be the boss. If you are a business owner...

Have you ever heard the expression, " you act like you own the company"? By acting like the boss, one day you may very well own the company. There are companies that create incentives for employees to feel empowered to be part of something great. Companies and business owners find that by creating that environment, it will drive employees to be creative, loyal and cost-conscious. Experiment this w...

Today is Sunday and three things are shared in the podcast. Are you doing it or talking about doing it? In the past we have talked about your cornerstone habit and how habit is part of walking the walk not talking the talk. Some people are allergic to working. Success is allergic to those people. That is not just your job but also your goals. I had a terrible eating day yesterday but today I am gi...

Are you a team player? Do you wait for your boss to pay you before you work or do you work towards the job you desire. We talk about what it means to be a team player and what that meant to me in the beginning of my career.
