The Daily Boost: Best Daily Motivation | Life | Career | Goal Setting | Health | Law Of Attraction | Network Marketing

Growing up, I was an energetic, enthusiastic, and excitable child. I never let a day go by without challenging something - usually with my mouth. Thanks to those responsible for turning me into a good person, I learned a valuable lesson when they said- “Listen twice as much as you speak. You have two ears and one mouth for a reason.” You’ve heard that before, and in today’s fast-paced world, knowing when to put a zipper on your lips is critical. But I’ve also learned to take that advice to a new level to get what I want. I call it going “Dark.” When you go “Dark,” you have chosen to listen to others less. You are still listening, caring, and interacting with those around you. You’ve decided to listen to yourself twice as much instead. The world we live in today makes it seem as though it’s impossible to get what you want without others. There are endless hours of interacting, Googling, ZOOMing, Texting, and more. It’s like we’ve lost permission to think and do for ourselves. We can’t move forward without the

My friend Sid called to tell me he had found his next big thing. He decided to take flying lessons and couldn't wait to get started. I have always wanted to learn to fly after hearing my Mom's stories over the years. Her father was a contractor in Wilmington, North Carolina. When an airport client couldn't pay, he offered lessons. She was 15 years old. Her stories of landing on the beaches of North Carolina were thrilling. Flying Solo before an arriving hurricane was captivating. We'll forget the fact that she 3-days short of being legally old enough. Her adventurous spirit took control. With a hurricane coming, she wasn't going to ask for permission. She took command, and it put her in the record books. By the time I began flying 50 years later, things were more controlled, and speaking on the radio to Air Traffic Control was required - and challenging. Being nervous, I often found myself asking for permission when I wanted to do something. I would say, "This is Cessna 67508 requesting permission to…" One da

Have you ever found yourself stalled? I had big plans a few years ago, and nothing was moving forward. When I said nothing, others didn't seem to get the memo that I was on a mission.  We've all been in situations where nobody will return your call. Your email gets ghosted. You can't seem to get support or commitment for your future world-saving plans. That's what happened to me and caused me to decide to create my momentum. I called it my "Momentum Freight Train."  My first use of my new mindset was to get my future wife to take our relationship more seriously. Everything was going great - but not fast enough for me. So, before our next date, I said to myself - "I'm not going to wait for permission. I'm going to build my life, no matter what. If she doesn't join me, I'll ride my momentum to someone who will." It's important to understand that creating your momentum is not negative thinking. On the contrary, people notice attractive energy - and she did. I was off and running with my commitment, and Joi and o

Have you noticed that airplanes fly crooked?  Heading to their destination, winds attempt to blow them off course. That’s why pilots turn their aircraft into the wind. They call it Wind Correction. The same thing happens when you set a Goal. While you prefer the straight path, you will likely run into winds that will blow you off course. Your spouse disagrees with your plans. Your boss demands more hours. Your kids, friends, and responsibilities keep blowing you further away from your dreams. It’s time to start thinking like a pilot setting a flight plan to a distant city with a Kristy Kreme donut store about to turn in the ‘Hot Donuts’ sign. Keep an eye on your final destination. Always set goals that factor in winds that will blow you off your course. Make minor corrections until you get where you’re heading. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

STOP Being Triggered Do you ever feel emotionally triggered and tossed off track for the entire day? You are an emotional person. When emotions keep you from logically navigating your day, problems begin. How do you control being triggered? 1) Identify what triggers a response you want or don’t want to experience.   2) Decide how you want to feel when triggered. Make a plan to respond. 3) The next time you are triggered, recognize what is happening and execute your plan. Identify. Decide. Respond.  The more you catch what emotionally triggers you, the more control will have over how you feel. That is true power.  -------------------- Visit our website - https://motivationtomove.com Join BOOST Coaching - https://motivationtomove.com Download the Perfect Week Planner - https://perfectweekplanner.com Schedule a 60-Minute Coaching Session - https://motivationtomove.com/60-minute-coaching/ Join our Facebook Group - https://dailyboostpodcast.com/facebook  Learn more about your ad choices.

Dealing With Any Crisis When I fly little planes, everything is about safety. When things go wrong, I have a simple rule: Fly the plane. Navigate the plane. Communicate with somebody who can help. The same applies to life. When things get challenging, most folks go directly to asking for advice.   What they get is - “Tell me what is happening in your life. Where are you? What’s going on?” If you don’t have control of the basics, it’s difficult for anybody to help. The next time life gets wild, keep flying your “Life Airplane,” and do your best to navigate the obstacles to a safe situation. In other words, keep control of what you have so you don’t lose it. Then reach out for help. -------------------- Visit our website - https://motivationtomove.com Join BOOST Coaching - https://motivationtomove.com Download the Perfect Week Planner - https://perfectweekplanner.com Schedule a 60-Minute Coaching Session - https://motivationtomove.com/60-minute-coaching/ Join our Facebook Group - https://dailyboostpodcast.com/f

Why You Should Act 16 Again Growing up sure can get in the way of your dreams. It’s sad how so many goals get pushed aside for daily responsibilities.   Think about this - When you were 16, the only freedoms you enjoyed were what your parents allowed. When you grow up, you have total freedom and complete control. If you could live today like you were 16, it might look like this - You would go to school and educate yourself. Your friends would be real friends. Not just people you met at the office. You would dream about your future. You would be excited about what was to come in life. You wouldn’t be allowed to drink. Your mind would be clear. You would embrace having fun for the fun of it. You couldn’t and wouldn’t get in debt. You would sleep—a lot. The job you have today would have felt like a prison. Does it? You would busy yourself all day with LIFE. You don’t have to be 16 again. But imagine how much fun you could have if you knew then…what you know now… and used it all today?  -------------------- Visit

Embracing Your Natural Flow Getting things done isn’t always about a to-do list. More often, it’s your body clock. Scientists have discovered that we all experience productivity peaks and valleys throughout our day. Does this sound familiar? 1) Maximum focus happens in the morning. After waking up, your body temperature slowly rises, and your ability to focus with it. Mornings are excellent for detailed work - until around noon. 2) The slump begins. Yes, the slump is real. After noon, your body slows down until late afternoon. Don’t fight it. Focus on the easy stuff. 3) Creativity rebounds later in the day. While you are not as sharp as in the morning, you are more relaxed, open to ideas, and creative.  You will always get the most out of your day by observing, thinking, and executing your plans when you embrace your natural rhythm.

Work. Life. Balance. Really? A long time ago, you found yourself graduating high school and thrust into real life.  I’m sure you gave lots of thought to your future. Then again, you were young. Twenty years later, things can look very different. Over the years, I’ve learned something about working for a living: 1) Chasing money, advancement, and being significant will keep you busy. It will also close your eyes to other areas of life you would enjoy. 2) Pursuing passion and mission without considering real life is a recipe for frustration. Choose career opportunities that allow you to run fast, feel important, make money, and will enable you to serve your passion and mission. Learn more about your ad choices.

How To Be Honest With Yourself There's a truth about getting what you want in your life.  If you don't know where you are, you can't know how to get where you want to go. Do you know where you are? One of the quickest ways to find out is, to be honest with yourself. It's time to take inventory and look at every aspect of your life: the good, the bad, the ugly, and the awesome.

Does the Law of Attraction Work? I've always believed the Law of Attraction should be called the Law of What You Think About Most. Like attracts like, what you think about, you get.  If you think, "I won't get it because I never do" - you are correct. Dreaming of a new life while focusing on your current problems is a sure way to keep spinning your wheels. The trick is to focus your attention and actions on what you want to attract. That will require a dedicated effort. Vision Boards, lists of Goals, and daily journaling are all great ways to stay on track.  The Law of What You Think about is magical and straightforward… Decide what you want. Believe it is possible. Focus on the future, not the past. Please don't stop until you get it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Get Motivated ON DEMAND As a child, I wondered why I couldn't always have my way. Mom and Dad were so mean! I couldn't wait to grow up, move out, and experience being an adult. Everything would be different - or so I thought. After stepping into the adult world, it didn't take long to realize that not much had changed. It turns out it wasn't my parents. It was like turning down my requests. Life was getting in the way. What was even worse was that I was getting in my way. I've joked over the years that if I'm the Boss of me, so why don't I do what I say? Eventually, I realized having a big ass goal, being on a mission, and, most importantly, motivation on demand was the solution. Motivation is a powerful, if not fleeting, tool we all need. But we need to understand one of the simplest ways our minds generate motivation: 1) Your physiology dictates your feelings. The easiest way to break free of a slump is to stand up, take a step, and REPEAT. Movement wakes your body, guides your emotions, and makes anything

One Question Procrastination Elimination Are you a member of the Procrastination Club?  Procrastination is the intentional and habitual postponement of an essential task that you should be doing.  Is that what you are doing?  In my view, two things could happen if you procrastinate - It may be possible that you are not procrastinating at all. Instead, you may be forcing yourself to do something you don't need to do anyway. The other possibility is that it simply doesn't mean enough to you to start the process. Or, said another way, other things mean more to you. Yes, you must complete some tasks. That's called being a responsible person. But if your list keeps getting longer, it's time to ask yourself a question - Is it important enough to me to get it done?  If not, you know why you are procrastinating.

Shake Up Your Life and Thrive Growth and change are what most people strive for in their life. It’s what drives you before you create your amazing life. It’s also what drives you to step up to the next level. In the last 17 years, I’ve produced the Daily Boost podcast, and I’ve spoken to thousands of people. All of them were in various stages of change, and most aimed to be happy.  But, there is an issue that keeps popping up. As people live and enjoy the life they’ve built, the natural desire for more growth kicks in, and they find themselves driving harder—usually without thinking about it. It could be about passion, but most times, it’s about making more money. One day, I talked with a friend about living a good life and how hard people work to mess up a good thing. That’s when he asked a great question - ”When life is good, why would you do something else only to make more money?” It’s not to say that making more money is not very good. It’s just important to make sure that you focus on what is right in f

Sharing Your Plans Slows You Down In the last few years, it has become increasingly popular for people to share every little aspect of their lives with others. But, when it comes to getting what you want, keeping your plans to yourself is a powerful tool. Independent's Day weekend has just passed, and when I arrived at my desk on Tuesday, I had two client messages that made me smile. The first said, "I decided to spend my weekend practicing what I do in private so that I will be praised in public." That's something I've said and done many times. The second client told me they had completed a new project over the weekend and heading in a new direction. When I mentioned they had never said a word to me about it, they said, "I know. I'm learning that nobody needs to know what I'm doing to do. I'll do it, and they can catch up." My heart smiled as I witnessed three powerful tools that impact my client's lives: 1) Practice privately until you are ready to share with the world. Nobody needs to know how you got so g

Living Your ALL IN Life I want to become the person I am meant to be. That’s something that I hear daily in my life from people all over the world. Frankly, beyond living a joyful life, I can’t think of anything more important than growing to become who you know you are on the inside. Most people tend to work in different areas of their life. All will say that family and friends are the most important, but they tend to focus on their career and legacy - especially after the kids move out.  But here is a problem… For many years, most people, including myself, tended to get lost in developing specific areas of their lives while others were on hold. While outwardly successful, they wouldn’t be on the phone with me if everything was going perfectly. It’s not, it’s hit or miss, and that is causing sleepless nights. A solution is an ALL-IN approach to living. Over time, I’ve developed the solid belief that whatever you deem as the ultimate best use of your life will only happen after you have evolved every area of
