The Relic Podcast

We don't have an unlimited amount of time to do things the right way.  That time will run out.  How many opportunities to do better, to be better have you squandered?  

We are all going to fail.  Why not do it with a smile?  Then get back up.

A piggy back to last week.  That Dragon we all have can keep us down or propel us forward.  The choice is simple but not always easy.

We all have them and a lot of them we start to believe.  

Hit's a little different this year.  It's amazing to me how the little moments are the ones that stick in my head.

Sometimes in life you have to take a risk and “flip the coin.”

It's not easy turning obstacles into stepping stones or refurbishing a "Relic".  

Less is more.  

The Aberdeen Civic Arena. A true Relic.

A new episode with my man Eric and it's no surprise we “go back to the Y.”Back to the basics.  

You don't need to go on a vacation to appreciate what's all around you.

This has been talked about before and is worth talking about it again.

We’re always going to have things get in our way. Big things. Small things. You name it, they’re coming. How you choose to look at them makes all the difference in the world.

April 9th, my mom’s BDay. RIP. Always missed, never forgotten.

Due to some problems with my SD card the latest episode with Cynthia got erased or lost or whatever happens when your SD card gets ruined. My apologies.

It was great finally getting Cynthia Corn on with me.   She was my Principal for 4 years while I taught in Kansas City, MO.  We talk about that experience among other things.  I'll always be proud and grateful for the work we did together.  It wasn't an easy task.  From a teacher to a Principal, the dance of leadership has many moves.  

We all get the choice. We all have the same amount of time. You’re either going to do it or you’re not. Find a way or find an excuse. Period.

Do you want to achieve something? Anything?  It takes effort.  Period.  No amount of "luck" will get it for you.  Sure, sometimes we may get something for nothing in this life, but those things don't last.  True success requires old fashioned effort.

The third installment of the Trilogy w/Pete.  

“All you need are these: certainty of judgment in the present moment; action for the common good in the present moment; and an attitude of gratitude in the present moment for anything that comes your way.” - Marcus Aurelius 

You can’t lead if you can’t follow. You can’t rise if you don’t fall. You can’t enjoy the light without facing your fear of the dark.

4 in a row for us.  On this episode we pick up where we left off...coaching. 

This time Adrian takes the lead and asks the questions.  We go behind the curtain from elementary to college and we still ran out of time, but there was still time for pump fakes and air balls.

We're back!  After Ep. 66 we knew we couldn't just end there.  It'd be like trying to stop peeing mid stream.  This time we're waxin' poetic on topics ranging from Hip Hop, Pac-Man and kicks that look like tanks.  Get some.

It was great catching up with an old friend from Aberdeen.  We could've gone on a tangent about many things but we stuck (mostly) to addiction and how it's affected him and his family.
