Good morning everyone! Welcome back to Motivated Entrepreneurs. Today is Tuesday, the 28th of July. Inverse thinking is a different perspective on the issues and situations in your life.  Normally we all look at things in a linear manner. But if we solve problems a little bit backward, then we see different areas in which we can improve.  This makes our brains and our thought processes function di...

Good morning! Welcome back to Motivated Entrepreneurs. When something goes wrong in your life, which will happen all the time, allow yourself five minutes to bitch and moan. But only for five minutes.  When that five minute is up, simply say, "Can't change it." It's in the past. Then get your head back in the game and deal with it. Accept it.

Good morning everyone! Today is Sunday, the 24th of July. This is not a challenge of the week; this is a challenge of right now. There is only one time in your life that matters, which is now. It's the only time that we have any power over. You have no control over the future or the past; you have control over the present.  And we have to use this time wisely.  Listen on Spotify: https://spoti.fi/...

Good morning everyone! Welcome back to Motivated Entrepreneurs and I'm your host, Dean Booty! I'm having a love/hate relationship with my mind at the moment.  The mind can measure what we're going to lose, but it can't measure what we are going to win. This is why you have to monitor your thoughts and feelings because your mind is coming from a place of protection. The mind doesn't like risks; it'...

Good morning everyone! Welcome back to Motivated Entrepreneurs and I'm your host, Dean Booty. Your thoughts today will not be your thoughts in the future.

Your thoughts, feelings, and actions are going to change a...

Good morning! Thank you for tuning in to Motivated Entrepreneurs. This is a two-fold challenge because I believe I've done something similar to these episodes before.  Relationships with your partner are so important.

Good morning everyone! Welcome back to Motivated Entrepreneurs, Today's book is The Decision by Kevin Hart.

Or wait until the end. By the end...

Good morning! Thank you for tuning in! People are chasing gratification, not happiness. What does that mean?  Gratification makes us feel better now, but worse long-term. That is what people are chasing.  We are all interested in that instant win, that instant feel-good factor. But instant gratification has no longevity and will have no benefit for you in the long-term. We all want long-term happi...

Good morning everyone! Today is Thursday, the 16th of July. We are all wearing a dirty T-shirt that was given to us when we were a child.
