The Tim Stodz Podcast

There are people less qualified than you, doing the things that you want to do, simply because they decide to believe in themselves. Period. https://www.timstodz.com/what-courage-really-means/  

So you want to know the secrets to growing your business? Well you’re in the wrong place. I don’t have any secrets for you. I don’t know the latest hacks or tricks. All I know is what has worked for me. This isn’t going to be a post about an easy fix or a quick way to make $10,000 overnight. I’m going to tell you the simplest, most straight forward way to build a real business and make a real livi...

None of this has gone to plan, but I feel like I am better off. The mishaps and misfortunes have been a blessing. If things aren’t going the way you want them to, be patient. Nothing in my life has worked out the way I hoped it would. But it’s exceeded my wildest dreams. https://www.timstodz.com/its-a-messy-process/

We all get to the point where we want to quit, but only a select few of us have the inner fortitude to push through the tough times and get to where we want to be. I’m not a quitter. My parents taught me about pain tolerance and I am very grateful for them for teaching me about determination. But as I’ve been through more and more tribulations in my life, I’ve learned some practical tips to manage...

It’s easy to get lost on the day to day. We dream these big dreams and we envision the places we want to go with our lives and our work, but sometimes it is hard to draw a connection between now and then. It can be difficult to “see” exactly what it will look like to be at he place that we wish to be. https://www.timstodz.com/last-week-was-a-big-week/

We are all looking for the hack, aren’t we? We are looking for a way to bypass the emotional and physical labor that our work demands and we are hoping to discover a secret that will elevate our work to the next level of success. https://www.timstodz.com/nothing-else-is-of-any-consequence/

Why don’t we make time for one another? Why don’t we take time to build relationships and get through the awkward moments in which we’re not really sure how to act or what to say? https://www.timstodz.com/sitting-for-coffee/

What comes next? What’s the next big thing? Who knows? https://www.timstodz.com/the-next-big-thing/

If we want to contribute and if we want to design our lives around our purpose, then we need to be mindful of our attention. We need to be mindful of where it goes, how much of it we waste and how much of it we give away for free. Most people don’t deserve the attention you give to them. They didn’t earn it, they just tricked you into thinking that if you didn’t give it to them then you would miss...

Few people in history have overcome such enormous odds. Michael Faraday is a giant among giants. He is the hero we didn’t know we needed. Yet, you probably don’t even know who he is. https://www.timstodz.com/if-faraday-can-do-it/

What is actually happening in this flow state? Is this just another way of saying that we are deeply focused? Or is there something else going on? https://www.timstodz.com/finding-your-flow-state/

If you watch the news long enough, you will be convinced that we are living in the darkest of times. See full write up here - https://www.timstodz.com/you-are-the-1/
