Does this sound familiar? Comes from a close family ... two brothers ... scholarship athlete who fell short of his Division 1 goals then turned pro ... now a husband, dad, writer and podcaster who emphasizes learning.

My daily series, AMX, stands for AM Excellence. It is built on the power of reading and learning, and it's meant to help you start your day on the right foot. AMXKids is an extension of that premise. It is built on that same power of reading and learning, but it's meant for kids. I'll be reading, studying and teaching the most successful middle-school-age books while focusing on leadership, charac...

Connection has lead me to this book, and I'm excited for the wisdom to be gained. We're taking a step back in time to learn wisdom that has been lost in time.

Trying something a little different today. I'm recording this week's WIL from the Sweetest Place on Earth, Hershey Park. The same great content in a fresh environment. This kept me on my toes; I had to NOT get distracted/lose my train of thought w/ all the sights and sounds the park in June has to offer. If you enjoy what you hear, hop on over to charliespaniard.com to opt-in to our weekly email,...

Experts, instinct and a terribly off-key (and off-lyric) Tim McGraw karaoke fill today's 8-minutes of AM Excellence. Turn up the volume...no, wait...turn it down! Enjoy all of the books I read and talk about at charliespaniard.com/readinglist.

"Remember, this is what you signed up for. You choose hard things." Recent wise words from my wife, and a perfect segue (not to be confused w/ Segway, the fancy Paul Blart scooter, pronounced the same way) into our next book, A Survival Guide for Life by Bear Grylls. I've always respected and admired Bear's approach to life and family (this will be the third book of his I've read). Let's go on an...

Gene Zannetti was on his way to a doctorate in clinical psychology when things took a turn. But the treatment world's loss is the the performance world's gain, because Gene and his brother Jeff went on to create mindset training programs that help athletes and students reach their full potential.

Boy, these episodes are fun. When I produce a show, I envision someone who could care less about reading books and learning, who actually is against it. I envision taking that person and TOTALLY 180'ing the way they think about books and learning. My goal is to create lifelong learners out of the most un-lifelong-learners out there! This week's WIL is another example of that mission in action. Lik...

Connection is one of my biggest drivers. It's a way to make the most out of our time here on Earth. There are so many different ways to connect w/ so many different things. Curiosity, we learn, is a big part in making that happen. We dive deep into connection on today's AMX. Want more learning? Visit charliespaniard.com.

Is it a coincidence I'm reading a book about curiosity in which the author devotes a section to the uniqueness of his hair on this kind-of-big-deal-day, episode 500? Meh, who knows?! What I do know is you'll enjoy this 8 minute blast of learning! Charliespaniard.com/readinglist has a bunch of books that can change your life. You should consider reading one. I'm happy to offer my insight - @charlie...
