Let It Go! with Mitch Matthews

Let It Go! with Mitch Matthews Hello, there. Welcome to Dream Think Do. I hope you're doing fantastic no matter where you're at in the world. Welcome to Episode 177. We just keep heading right towards 200 episodes. It's crazy to think about. It's been an awesome journey so far and I'm super stoked about where we're headed. Listen To The Podcast: Sign up to get your free "3 Buckets" download Your tool for overcoming worry First Name * Email * Submit Recommended Books: Here's the list of books suggested by DREAM THINK DO-ers: John C Maxwell's: "Thinking for a Change." Henry Cloud: "Never Go Back." William Paul Young's: "The Shack." David Schwartz's: "The Magic of Thinking Big." David Millman's "Way of the Peaceful Warrior." I'm not sure if you can tell, but we're really trying some new things. Trying to just continue to experiment and take things with DREAM THINK DO to the next level. And you, yes, you, are helping to do that, so thank you so much for that. In fact, this is a very special episode. I tried something different. We crowdsourced some great ideas for this one. That's right. We are going to talk about a really important subject. It's the subject of letting go, specifically around the subject of worry. I don't know if you deal with worry, if someone close to you deals with worry, but one of the strategies that has helped me involves letting go; letting go of worry. I put it out there to Dream Think Do-ers around the world, and maybe you participated just to say, "Hey, what works for you?" on the subject of letting it go. Because the idea of it is so nice, so powerful – but in practice, it's not always easy. So we're going to talk about that. How do you, in fact, let it go? And we're going to get specific with some strategies. I'm also going to share some quotes, some books, all sorts of good stuff that comes from you, the Dream Think Do-ers. So stand by for that. Let me give you a little background about why we're talking about letting go. Way back in Episode Two of Dream Think Do I talked about worry. Worry is just one of those things that if you're going to dream bigger, think better and do more in the world, do more of what you were put on the planet to do, you've got to let some stuff go. As we dream big, there's a good chance that worry, negative thinking, those things that keep us awake at night has been a factor. I can tell you, worry has shut down more dreams than just about anything else. Maybe you're not a worrier. If you're not, then continue to listen on behalf of somebody else in your life. But I'm guessing you can identify with being worried from time to time, especially when it comes to going after the big stuff, new stuff, stuff that's important to you, stuff that feels like you're supposed to do it, but you're not quite sure how it's going to work out. You know what I'm talking about? Back in episode two, I shared a strategy that a lot of you loved. It's something I called a "three-bucket strategy." It's something that was introduced to me by somebody in the audience of a talk that I was giving on the subject of – you guessed it – worry. During the break, this person came up to me and he was a big guy, a bit intimidating, to be honest. I found out later he was in the military, had definitely lived through some battles; literally and figuratively. He let me know early on in our conversation that he was a cancer survivor. I told him immediately, "My wife is a cancer survivor." Before I even realized what I was saying, I said, "Bring it in for a hug," which I think surprised him. He was so tall I felt like I was hugging his belt buckle for crying out loud. We talked through some of the strategies that I'd been sharing in my presentation, but then he said, "I've realized, especially with going through cancer, through going through the battle, through now leading a team - I just need three buckets."

Get out of your own way, with Susan Baroncini-Moe

My guest is my long-time friend, Susan Baroncini-Moe. She is the author of the bestselling book, Business in Blue Jeans: How to Have a Successful Business on Your Own Terms in Your Own Style. Susan has worked with clients on four continents in a wide range of industries. She's a sought-after strategist and has been featured on ABC, in Redbook magazine, USA Today, MSN, Yahoo Finance and I could go on and on. She is the host of 2Questions.TV, a YouTube show and podcast, where she interviews celebrities, best-selling authors as well as esteemed experts and entrepreneurs. Listen To The Podcast: She is a freakishly successful executive coach and business leader with over 16 years of experience. She's a great encourager. You're going to love her...and like I said...I'm excited to share this conversation with you because I know Susan will help you shift some of your perspectives — and — get out of your own way. You can go to suebmoe.com/mitch to find out more about Susan and get some goodies just for DREAM THINK DO-ers. So let's get to the INTERVIEW. Susan...welcome to DREAM THINK DO: Thanks for that great introduction, Mitch! As you know, Susan, we've got a lot of people that listen to DREAM THINK DO who are rocking it. A lot of them that are already leaders, entrepreneurs, and globe changers. But there's a lot of people that they've got this idea for a business or they want to launch their business. Susan, "Business in Blue Jeans" came out of some particular circumstances in your life. So tell us about that season of life. I mean, you've created this great business, but tell us about the season where you weren't doing things on your own terms. Yeah, we've never talked about this by the way. Thanks again for having me on your show. I have had a season in my life when I was not doing things on my own terms or in my own style. I think you know, that I studied sociology and social psychology at the University of Iowa. Right. Iowa ties! I actually paid my way through school by working in one of the tech labs and it was back when the Internet was new and I was really interested in, fascinated by it. So I learned at light speed and, and I just learned so much that I taught web design and development classes to faculty, staff, and students at the university. The university liked me and they liked what I was doing and so they recruited me. So my first job was in academia and really, I loved it there and I might have stayed there, but I got recruited by a magazine publishing house in Des Moines. They made me a really interesting offer and painted a really beautiful picture of what my future would be like. So I went there to help them take their printed content and turn it into salable digital content online back when doing that was new. Oh, yes indeed. Those world wide webs. Who knows whether it's going to work or not? Right! I liked the work that I did, but I found very quickly that the environment was "Intrapreneurial", meaning entrepreneurs inside of a company. I came up with some really cool ideas that I loved and, and what would happen is I would come up with big ideas that would get taken out of my hands. So for example, I came up with this really great idea. Let's do some videos. And so my boss thought it was a great idea and he sent me to Chicago for some in-depth video training. When I came back from a training, I found out that this big player in the company had taken a special interest in my idea and decided his department was going to implement it… and I didn't get to work on it. And that bummed me out. And that kind of stuff happened a lot. And I also found that I would come home from work late in the evening and I felt like I was losing my life. And you know, I think this is a concept we get wrong a lot. Just we in general...humans...get it wrong and we have this idea that you go to work, you spend your day and then you come home and you have this ...

Breaking through to the next level! with John Michael Morgan

Well, hello, Dream, Think, Do-er! I have another interview in my Hero Series. That's right. We're doing a bit of a hero series. These are folks that I want to bring to you because they've been a hero to me in some shape, way, or form. Today is definitely the case. Listen To The Podcast: My guest today is John Michael Morgan. John is a tell-it-like-it-is business strategist who helps entrepreneurs and leaders with creating the beliefs and the behaviors they need to achieve their biggest goals and dreams. His website says that he's best known for his energy and passion, but since I've known John for almost a decade, I'd actually say that he's known for his wisdom, his heart, his ability to bring truth, and his rather intimidating but yet awesome beard. Look him up. You'll see what I'm talking about. He is an in-demand speaker who is hilarious but, at the same time, he brings truth bombs and strategies that stick, so he's giving talks around the world. So put on your seat belts. This is going to be fun! He's a trusted friend of mine and a true wise mentor for me so, I wanted to bring him back to DREAM THINK DO. That's right. It's his second appearance on "DTD", so let's get to it. John, welcome back, buddy. Thank you so much for having me, Mike. I'm excited. This is just fun. The whole reason I have a podcast is to get to talk with cool people. We're almost at our 200th episode but you first were on DREAM THINK DO at episode 18. I mean it was just as the podcast was becoming an adult, turning 18, so, we're back at it. Yeah, I'm honored to be on twice. Kind of a long time in between, but… Well, I said, "Man, we'll bring you back and see if we can get it right this time." So, I do recommend to everyone, go back and listen to our initial conversation, which would be at MitchMatthews.com\018, episode 18. John, you do a lot of coaching and consulting with entrepreneurs and leaders, really high level stuff and I'm looking forward to really diving into some of the strategies you help people with. But I also really want to let dream, think, doers know your background. Because although now, you are all about creating the right beliefs and being intentional with your thinking, it hasn't always been that way for you. Give us a little picture of you as a youth. Have you always had the optimistic, intentional mindset, all of those things? I certainly did not. In fact, my youth was full of depression and anxiety and overcoming a lot of battles. But while I overcame them, what was left was damaged identity, a damaged self-esteem and things like that. So, even as a young adult, while I wasn't depressed or really experiencing anxiety in any of those things, I was also just drifting, just going through the motions, trying college, various professions. Just going through all of those kind of things and not ever actually saying, "What do I want and how do I get that?" Then when I started to get a sense of what I wanted, I was still getting in my own way. How I got to where I am today has been a lifelong journey of the more I grow and improve on the inside, the more all of my outer circumstances and situations also grow and improve. I always appreciate that you're really willing to be raw and authentic about that journey. So fast-forward a bit and you write a game changing book about branding, which was great of course. But your audiences, your coaching clients really started to demand more from the leadership stuff and the mindset stuff, because they were like, "Okay, your branding stuff's awesome, but I'm learning just as much, if not more, about how do I lead, how do I live, all of that." So, I wanted to have you back on, because last time we really talked a lot of branding. This time, I want to talk about, not just leadership, but leading yourself. Taking yourself and your career, all of it to the next level. What do you think? What are some of the things that get in the wa...

Hero Series: Beating the fear of Public Speaking, with Felicia Slattery

Last week I started a series where I'm putting the spotlight on some of my heroes: These are people that have inspired and helped me and I can't wait to introduce them to you. To continue the series today, we're going to talk about one of the biggest fears in the world: The fear of public speaking! Listen To The Podcast: We're going after it with a long-time friend and a long-time hero, Felicia Slattery. Felicia is a award-winning professional speaker. She's works one-on-one with experts, entrepreneurs, CEOs, celebrities… to help them to connect with people on a human level from the stage and from online, as well as, build relationships that last. Right from the start of my business, Felicia welcomed me as a peer and helped set me up for success. She is someone you can listen to and count on. She's the real deal. Whether you want to be a professional speaker or just be more effective in any speaking scenario, Felicia Slattery will share GREAT strategies that you can apply that will enable you to DREAM THINK DO. Felicia, welcome to "Dream.Think.Do." Wow. Thanks, Mitch. I'm so excited to be here. It's a long time coming. I want to back up. You're one of my heroes. I literally, I mean that. I think I've shared this story with you, but if not, you were the Emcee at one of the first events that I got to speak at as a professional speaker. Do you remember that years and years ago? It was like 400 years ago. I do remember that. It was fantastic. Yeah. Well, I don't know if I've told you this story before, but my business was just getting started. We'd gone through some setbacks at the time as well. I remember checking in at the hotel hoping that no one from the conference was going to be there because I was a little worried about my credit card clearing! I was there. I was passionate about the message I was going to give it. It was a Big Dream Gathering, kind of at the first time we were ever really doing it in a conference setting. But there was that imposter syndrome thing creeping up on me, all of those fears, all those doubts of should I really be here? Should people really listen to me? Do I belong here? As you Emceed, you just controlled the room. Right from the start, you welcomed me as a peer. You set me up for so much success. You warmed that audience up. They were on the edge of their seats. We had a great time. Then the next day, you got up and you actually spoke about my talk and said, "Guys, listen. He's going places. You should listen to him." I'm getting a little misty as I tell this, but that message mattered to me so much. It spoke to my heart and that gave me juice for years to come. I just so appreciated how took control of the room. You cared about us. You set me up for success, but those comments you said the next day. It went deep in my heart. You're a long time hero of mine. Aw, you just gave me chills. I'm so happy. Honestly, that's one of the things that as a speaker, we just never know who we're impacting with our words. I had no way of knowing. I don't think you came up to me right afterwards. I don't know that you told me that then, but I'll tell you - Just hearing years later, for you to remember some seemingly just normal thing that I would say at an event because I'm boosting up the speakers. That's part of my job, but also, I don't say anything that I don't also believe. Of course, I meant every word, but it was like I barely would even remember saying that. But I do remember your presentation? Yes, because you were amazing. Thank you. I just want to tell you DREAM THINK DO-ers, this is a person you can listen to. You can probably already tell, she does an incredible job in front of an audience, speaks to thousands of people. She's the real deal. I say all of that because I just want to jump right into her wisdom here. We're going to go after this. I know you work with all sorts of different types of folks.

History Doesn't Repeat. It Rhymes – with Ben Stein

Today I'm starting a series where I'm focusing on some of my heroes: People who may or may not be a household name, but they certainly deserve to be. These are people that have inspired me and I can't wait to introduce them to you. Listen To The Podcast: Today, we are talking with Ben Stein, an award-winning teacher and golf coach here in MY town… Des Moines, Iowa. Ben has been a social studies teacher for 16 years. He now teaches at the junior high he attended as a teenager. How cool is that? He has had a huge impact on countless young people, including my two boys. And that's one of the reasons why I wanted to have him on. Ben has an incredible talent for making history live. When he was their teacher, our boys would come home charged up because Mr. Stein had told a great story and got the class talking about it. As a result, we'd have marathon dinner table conversation. When you look at our history, when you dig into stories of grit, of determination, of collaboration, of healing, of heart, of sticktoitiveness… we can know more of where we came from and who we are. Ben truly wants to help these kids to dream, to think, to do. So let's get to it. Mr. Stein, Ben Stein, welcome to Dream. Think. Do! Thank you for having me. You and I have been friends for years now, but there's a part of me that still wants to call you Mr. Stein, in homage of you being a teacher, and a great one at that. You are too kind. I'm teaching at the school where I grew up, so I have the problem that I still want to call some of my co-workers who were teachers I had by, "Mr., Ms or Mrs." I love it. We're going to get to some specific stories from history because I think we need to know more about our history right now. Dream. Think Doers are from all around the world. We have listeners from all over Europe, all over Africa - everywhere. So I will say this is a little bit more tip of the hat to U.S. history, but I think these stories are inspiring because they speak to that human spirit. To grit. We're going to get to that in just a second, but we're going to start with Ben's story. Did you always want to be a social studies teacher? Is that what you wanted to do or is this something that you found? You know, originally I wanted to play golf. I found out very quickly that I wasn't good enough, so I got my degree in English and then - what do you do with a degree in English? I was going into education to become a teacher, and it was shortly after 9/11. I realized how important it is for us to know who we are. And, as my good friend Oprah tells me - you don't know where you're going unless you know where you are. And as I'm learning more and more of these stories from history, it inspires me to share that with my students, to let them know who they are as Americans and what that means to prepare for the future. That's awesome. One of the things I appreciate is the sort of Socratic method you use in teaching. My boys would come home and mention that you'd share a story but then say, 'Tim, what do you think of this?' You would get them talking. Our boys were fired up because they were engaged. Well, you know, there's a quote in my room which is the theme for the class. It's by Mark Twain, and goes: "History doesn't repeat. It rhymes." So I start off class with a two minute current event on anything going on and we'll discuss it. It's funny how we can relate that to the same things that were going on 200 years ago, only. It's slightly different. I think that engages the kids because when you're talking about the current events around the world today and then relay that back to the 1700s, I think that's easier for kids to understand. Yeah, absolutely. I'm with you. Let's dig into it. What are three stories from history that all Americans should know but probably don't? What were some of the stories that come to mind for you? Well George Washington of course comes to mind. To me,

Mitch Matthews | PTG: Posttramatic Growth

Welcome to Dream. Think. Do. It's great to be back – we've been on hiatus for a couple of weeks making a few changes...and I think you'll like what we've done with the place! Listen To The Podcast: I'll start off with some exciting news — that actually you are a major part of. We've been digging into the numbers and I discovered we're in the top five percent of all podcasts! How cool is that? And it's because of YOU! I know you really do believe in helping people to dream bigger, think better, and do more...do more of the stuff they were put on the planet to do. So thanks for sharing my podcast with your friends and colleagues and spreading the word! I'm grateful for you. I'm grateful that you're listening in today. I'm grateful that you're part of the Dream. Think. Do. movement...and together… we're making an impact by reaching people around the world. I couldn't do it without you. So for today...I'm going to share a term with you and its impact on me, but I'm also going to share some strategies with you that have helped me in big, big ways. I was recently listing to an audiobook from one of my favorite authors, Shawn Achor. It's called BIG POTENTIAL - a great book with some really good psychological insight. One term that really struck me is what Shawn calls "Posttraumatic Growth". PTG basically boils down to A POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGICAL CHANGE EXPERIENCED AS THE RESULT OF ADVERSITY leading to a higher level of functioning. Post-traumatic growth is not about returning to the same life as it was previously experienced before a period of traumatic suffering. Rather, it is about undergoing significant life changing psychological shifts in thinking and relating to the world in a way that contributes to a deep personal process of change. This concept of learning from challenging circumstances isn't necessarily a new idea. In fact, it's interesting — I wasn't preparing for this episode...I was just doing my morning rituals yesterday and was having some quiet time. I was enjoying a cup of coffee, reading, and praying. I was journaling and had picked up where I had left off in the Bible, the New Testament, in the book of Romans. You might be familiar with it, but there I was...I wasn't doing research for the episode. I was just doing my morning thing and I kind of picked up where I had been reading before, but then I came across Romans chapter five specifically. And it said we can rejoice to when we run into problems and trials for we know that they help us to develop endurance — and endurance develops strength of character — and the character strengthens our confidence, hope, and salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. Now that was written a couple thousand years ago. And here, Paul, is basically talking about Posttraumatic growth — a new term to describe something that's obviously been around for centuries, if not since the beginning of time, right? Because we all have challenges, some of us more than others, but it's one of those things that sometimes we're in the thick of it and it can be extra challenging sometimes. I don't know about you, but some seasons in life just seem straight up, more challenging than others. There are those seasons, maybe short, maybe long. And then sometimes...everything's clicking. It seems easy. You can almost coast and everything is smooth sailing. But I have to admit, and I'm guessing since you're a Dream. Think. Doer...you'll get this...because sometimes if I experience an easy stretch for too long, I almost wonder, "Am I really pushing myself?" Because when we go after dreams, when we go after things that we want to do or experience or achieve, whether we're stretching at work, whether we're stretching at home, whether we're stretching ourselves in relationships, if we're pushing for a dream, if we're going after it to make things happen, there are going to be rough spots, right?
