The Real Podcast

How often have you been hit with the "I have to" or "I got to" that is then followed up with a disappointing sense of obligation? I've been there and many of us have. When we use disempowering language it's unlikely we will take action. So instead of saying "I have to," change it to "I get to." This change in perspective will give you the confidence to take action.  What words have you deleted fro...

Identity is such a powerful force in our lives. It determines our mood, our perspective and the actions we take or don't take. One can argue that it is the more influential aspect of ourselves.   Today's reading comes from "The Power of One More" by Ed Mylett. " Ch 1 Pg 8 "Are you willing to sacrifice who you are for who you could be? [...]give yourself the gift of taking control by dictating inte...

Lately I've been checking my language on a daily basis I catch it. Sometimes I'll say "try" or "can't" or some other word that isn't going to help me achieve my goals or help me become a more evolved person. And in my episode with Betsy Heller we talked about language and how it can shift your whole perspective in a positive way. She has some insight into using gratitude to change your life and ov...

As I'm going to the day, working at home, passing by the girls as they're talking with their momma, I hear these conversations going on where Kari's teaching Makena how to read. It wasn't until recently, last week or so, where something just clicked for Makena and now she's reading! She's reading words on her own and I'm just so amazed they're proud of her. What that taught me…what that reminded m...

Gratitude is everything. I love this episode with Betsy Heller that you'll see shortly. It is powerful. I remember this story of a mentor of mine. I was coming to him because I was not in a good place, I was expecting something other than what he told me. And I was not happy with what he said. He said "What are you grateful for?". And I didn't want to hear that. I wanted something that fed my ego...

Attitude Proceeds Performance Tune in to hear a short inspirational talk about how attitude proceeds perfromance. Guest: Tim Van Damm | Real Estate  Host: David A. Moya

Check out our episode with Danielle Short where we talk about actions and identity. Once your identity is clear, then naturally your brain will start working so your actions match your identity.  "You have to be something first before you start the doing-ness to have it. So I have to see myself as a successful real estate agent first. I had to create that idea of myself. Then I start the doing-nes...

Katiana loves doing puzzles. Katiana is my youngest daughter. She's two. I love observing her. Seeing her start a puzzle, get frustrated, continue by trying more puzzle pieces and eventually she figures it out…through trial and error. This reminded me of the saying that "failure is the way," that "the path to success is paved with failure." If she didn't pick up a puzzle piece and attempted to put...

Overcoming Fear with Gratitude, Faith & Humor Tune in to hear a short inspirational talk about overcoming fear with gratitude, faith and humor. Guest: Betsy Heller | Real Estate  Host: David A. Moya

This is a real question I ask a lot of my guests on the podcast, "How do you silence your inner critic?" If you exist you've had an experience with your inner critic and I love the answer Danielle Short gave, "I don't feed it. I don't give it attention. I'm aware of it. I know it's there. But I don't engage." And this is powerful, you can tell where she's focusing her attention, and of course she...

Life is constantly requiring us to evolve, to adapt, to change, to grow. One simple example is the transition from elementary school to junior high, and from junior high to high school, and again from high school to college. At every new level you're required to grow.  In one of his podcasts, Ed Mylett said something to the effect that every new chapter requires a new you. You can't expect to over...

If you're wondering if the small, positive changes you're making in your life are worth it…know that they are. Even if you aren't seeing any substantial results yet, stay the course and trust the process. There's a compound effect working in your favor. Give it some time.  Today's reading comes from Atomic Habits by James Clear. "Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement. The same way m...

Why Resourcefulness is the Key to Unlocking Your Potential Tune in to hear a short inspirational talk about how resourcesfulness is the key to unlocking your potential. Guest: Danielle Short | Real Estate  Host: David A. Moya

Pushing through the fear. Feel the fear and do it anyway. I know I go back to it a lot but sports have so many teachable moments. Case in point, Makena recently had a sparing situation where she got hit in the nose really hard by somebody's head. This created the fear that "I'm going to get hit again." She didn't want to do it anymore. This went on for 2-3 weeks. We kept telling her that it may ha...

You are as powerful as your belief system allows you to be. I just got off an amazing coaching session with a great group of agents and we were talking about how our belief system determines the level of our success. If you are waiting for permission from somebody…nobody's going to give you the permission but you. There's just so much power and relief when we realize that the person we're waiting...

Purpose Over Perfection. You don't have to be perfect. I think we have been sold this lie that we have to pursue perfectionism in order to be loved by God, by other people, by our loved ones, by our parents, by our family, by society…that we had to live this perfect life in order for us to be accepted. Remember that every person you see when you look around and they look like they have it all toge...

Enjoy the fruit that's in season! If you know me, you know that I am big on personal growth and expansion. But I do have to remind myself every day, to enjoy the present moment. Wherever you are in life, there are moments to enjoy and cherish.  Don't miss out on experiencing them! #mindsetcheck #california #sandiego #carlsbad #realestate #videocoach #lifestyle #vlog #podcast #videography #videomar...

If you're feeling a little unmotivated, or if you're even feeling powerless, or you don't feel like you're having any impact, remember that what you do today matters. It's going to impact the generations that come after you…your kids or grandkids and so on. So I encourage you to be the Roger Banister of your life and your family. Roger Banister is the guy who broke the four-minute mile. Essentiall...

The Power of Staying Clear of Negativity Tune in to hear a short inspirational talk about how stay clear of negativity, and keep balance when you're builing your real estate business. Guest: Marti Gellens | Real Estate  Host: David A. Moya

Being afraid is ok! Bravery and courage don't exist without fear. The next time you're feeling a little scared, remember it's only when you're scared that you can be brave! #mindsetcheck  #california #sandiego #carlsbad #realestate #videocoach #lifestyle #vlog #podcast #videography #videomarketing #therealpodcast #video #marketing #coaching #travel http://www.

By being negative are you really just playing it safe? I find myself sometimes using negative thinking as a way to protect myself. But it's only when I am optimistic about life, myself and others that I allow possibility to come into play. #mindsetcheck  #california #sandiego #carlsbad #realestate #videocoach #lifestyle #vlog #podcast #videography #videomarketing #therealpodcast #video #marketing...

The skill of being present! I'm going to admit that I use to have the inverse skill. I use to escape, runaway even, from the present moment. But when we're not present we give up our power and the joys of living. Everything happens in the now, in this moment. Don't miss out on all the beauty that sounds you because you're spending too much time living in the past or in the future. #bepresent  #min...
