The No-Code Advantage

There is something in your life right now that you can do which was IMPOSSIBLE to you only a short time ago. By working at it every day and slowly improving, you were able to figure out how to become better at it. What was once impossible to you is now "easy." Where in your life is there something that you can appreciate and give yourself credit for conquering? Something that was once impossible f...

We learn more by teaching since it reinforces the information we absorbed into our minds on a deeper level. The simple act of speaking what you learned to another or writing the information down can be among the most powerful ways to learn. Where in your life could you learn something on a deeper level by simply teaching the concept to someone else?

When you are 30-40 feet underwater, you can’t just pop to the surface, reset everything and start fresh. You have to figure out how to fix whatever the issue is from where you are. The same is true in our lives. Where in your life do you find yourself flailing about everywhere and not taking the time to figure out how to fix the issue from where you currently are?

When Dan was Scuba-diving in Jamaica, he had to overcome a long-standing fear in his mind about being underwater, childhood ear infections and a host of other things that were only in his head! Where in your life is there FEAR (false evidence appearing real) and you can finally overcome it by taking action or learning something new to remove the uncertainty surrounding that fear?

There is always a daily or weekly lull we all hit and it can smack us in the face pretty hard. The problem many of us face is that we have no mitigation strategy in place to course-correct and power through the lull. Where in your life is this “lull” or “wall” and what kind of plans can you put in place to mitigate them and use it as an accelerant rather than an obstacle?

We are back friends! Although your beloved show host had a brief absence while sipping drinks on the coast of Jamaica, he is back and more focused than ever! Be sure to stay tuned for updates regarding the upcoming Run Your Day Studio app coming this Memorial Day!

We all can fall into the “shiny object” trap and constantly think that the next thing, tool or person will fill the void of unhappiness or failure. The problem is that newer things aren’t always better, but better things aren’t always new. Where in your life is there something (a person, possession, etc.) that is old and can be made new again in order to find added and renewed value?

We all have that little negative voice inside of us that discourages, manipulates and deceives us from time to time. The trick is to stop allowing that voice to influence your decision-making and habits. Write down 1 thing you are grateful for, happy about or excited about today and see how it makes you feel.

We all have done things in our life that were once literally impossible for us to achieve. Brushing your teeth, riding a bike, swimming, etc. Those things were literally impossible for us to achieve at one point, but they are now second-nature to us. There are things in your life right now that you can achieve that you think are impossible. Daily Challenge: 1. Write down 3 things in your life that...

Imagine a world in which we were all exactly the same. Same age, same looks, same goals, same job, same clothes, etc. Can you imagine how bland and boring such a world would be? We are each given individual and special talents, gifts, personalities and traits. It is up to you to allow those to flow through you and become who you were truly meant to be. Where in your life are you filtering yourself...

Regardless of starting a good habit or kicking a bad one, once a new habit is created it can change your life completely. What was once difficult for you will become easy. What was once IMPOSSIBLE can become possible. Where in your life are you lacking the discipline required to start a good habit or delete an old one? What can you start doing today to develop that discipline? (HINT: just begin).

Whether you love him or hate him, you have to respect Tiger Woods. It has been 14 years since he won the Masters (or a major) and to do what he has done after all that he has been through personally, you have to give credit to his mentality and will to win.  Despite the doubters, despite the adversity, despite the long road full of obstacles and roadblocks, he kept going and never stopped believin...

We all can have a tendency to ignore the warning signs in our lives. We see a train coming, but we continue to sit down on the metaphorical tracks as if it isn't coming. Why do we continue to just sit there and not move out of the way? Where in your life are you ignoring the warning signs of an impending "train" that is coming and how can you start to get out of the way?

We all run into situations in our lives when we suddenly think that everything is falling apart and nothing will ever work out. When those times happen, remember this: "Your life isn't falling apart, it is falling into place." Where in your life have you had a situation in which you have thought the sky is falling, but you ultimately ended up overcoming the obstacle and it wasn't that big of a dea...

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. Without some form of structure and tactical plan to achieve a goal, all you have is an irrelevant wish. If you are looking for some help in this area, check out the Full Focus Planner and the Free to Focus book by Michael Hyatt. Both of these tools are awesome in terms of achieving more while doing less and setting up a tactical plan for you to achieve the th...

We can all find ourselves in weird positions from time to time, and it is usually a result of telling ourselves a story over and over and over until it just becomes our truth. The thing about this is that we can eventually start lying to ourselves over and over because this situation may no longer serve us in a way that is useful to us any longer. So how to do you figure out if you are in a weird...

Situations in life will be less than ideal. Conditions will never be perfect. It is our attitude towards those things that determines our perspective. Once you learn to "embrace the suck" and just become happy with the fact that you are in a bad situation, the entire perspective on the situation can change instantly. All of a sudden, you are no longer a victim. Weird how that works... Where in you...

Although you may think that no one is noticing the hard work you are putting in or the sacrifices you are making, I bet you’re wrong. There is always someone that notices when we make changes, whether good or bad.

When you are tired, exhausted and tapped out, you are only giving about 40% of your maximum effort. There is always something left in the tank. You just have to be able to find it and tap into it. Where in your life are you running into a place where you know you have more left in the tank?

There are two choices you have when confronted with a loss or a setback: pack it in and go home or double-down and go harder. Where in your life (either now or previously) have you been subjected to a loss or a setback, and how did you (or can you) move forward instead of calling it quits?

Two things I've learned since starting the Run Your Day podcast: 1. Fear isn't real and is just a creation of your mind. Start something, even if you aren't ready for it. 2. Consistency is king. Just doing something, even if it isn't good, is better than doing nothing at all. Where in your life do you need to just do something, even if you aren't ready for it?

We all fight a daily and constant battle with ourselves inside of our own minds. Do you constantly feee your hopes and dreams or do you constantly feed you fears and doubts? One week challenge: be conscious of your thoughts and see if you are feeding your positive side or negative side more.

It is so easy to hang onto old beliefs, thought patterns and things that no longer serve us. It can be terrifying to let go of security and head into the unknown, but doing so is required in order to ever experience growth. Where in your life are you choosing to hang onto something, refusing to let go and denying yourself growth?

"It's never as good as you think and it's never as bad as you think." If you think something in your life is awesome, chances are there are areas in which you can improve. If something isn't great in your life, it usually isn't as bad as you think it is. Where in your life is something either not as good as you think or not as bad as you think, and what can you start doing to change that perspecti...

What is your normal process when you hit an obstacle in life? Do you see it as "negative" or "positive" stress? Do you cut and run or do you choose to stand and fight? Resilience is the ability to keep coming back from failure, setbacks or losses. It is the internal ability to keep going, keep pushing and maintain belief that something is possible, even in the face of overwhelming odds. Where in y...
