Daily Boost - Motivation and Coaching

How to Live an ALL IN LifeI 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.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, 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 your life - and do it every day.Focusing on your business and achieving success at the highest levels only happens when the other areas of your life are balanced.Raising your children to be the best can only happen when the other areas of your life are balanced.Developing your spiritual being will only happen at a profoundly satisfying level when all other areas of your life are balanced.In other words, you will only achieve your personal best when your body, mind, relationships, and finances are working in synchronicity to support your journey; any other strategy is hit or miss. The goal is simple.You should do something daily to develop, maintain, and grow in every critical area of your life. It doesn’t have to be big, but it does have to happen. No, things won’t be perfect every day, but it’s incredible how all those imperfect days add up to a pretty good life.

It's Time to Get Off The FenceOkay, I'm feeling a little bit lazy today, so I will cut to the chase and bestow upon you the secret to success you've been seeking. Success requires that you do the hard work. It doesn't take a scientist to figure out that if you want more, you will have to do something to get it. Still, we live in a world that makes it seem like it should be easier, and it's not. Success takes a lot of hard work - even if you don't see it.Successful YouTubers make it look easy - after thousands of hours of trial and error.Musicians seemingly live their dream - after years of living in a tour bus and making pennies.Even people who do nothing but accept the generosity of society to make their way are working hard at a life you would never want.It doesn't matter what you want, good or bad, prosperous or not, happy or sad; it will take a lot of work to accomplish it. If you have a choice, and you do, why wouldn't you choose to work hard to bring goodness into your life?You become interested in making a change. The problem is interest is only the beginning, and you never get beyond your fascination.You decide what change you want to create and work hard to get it. Then, life gets in the way, and you stop. What's missing?Commitment. Life doesn't guarantee it, but you tend to get what you want when you commit and go all in on your mission. That's just how it works.I'm interested in many things and work hard at making magic happen in my life, the lives of my family and friends, and even yours. Only a solid commitment to how I spend my decades on this planet allows that to happen. Whatever you do - get committed, and you'll see how things change. Learn more about your ad choices.

Empowering Emotional TriggersI love it when we miraculously put together the perfect day, and life decides to get in the way. Well, it's not life, and maybe I don't love it, but occasionally, something or someone will cross your path get in your way.I don't know anybody who doesn't get hit smack in the face with a situation that triggers a feeling deep inside their soul, stirs emotion, and results in a reaction or response that makes you say, "Why did I say that?"Of course, we are emotional creatures, so it makes sense that robust emotional responses are a thing for most of us. Still, common sense will tell you it doesn't always serve us. It gets even worse when people sedate their emotions to protect themselves. Not only do they miss great opportunities, but when they are triggered, it becomes an 8.0 earthquake.So, how do you deal with it?The way I handle it is to understand that triggers usually happen when I least expect them. Still, my ScottLOGIC tells me that once I experience the trigger and learn the lesson, a little discipline in my actions tends to smooth things out the next time. Here's what happens.When I get triggered, a feeling emerges inside of me. Like me, the problem is that most folks jump from a feeling to an emotional response before their mouth knows what's happening. A better way is to recognize the feeling, pause, review the emotional dialog running in your mind, and then allow your thoughts to become your words. Life improves when you have the discipline to recognize what you've learned from a previous trigger, audit your reactions, and deliver your response. Strangely, it becomes as if you were never triggered at all.Look, we live in a world filled with shoot-from-the-hip opportunities, many of them purposely put in front of us to get a response. Please don't fall for it. Keep your mind on how you want to experience and see the world. You'll be amazed how all the drama goes away. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Too Many Choices Mean No ChoiceMy wife and I were looking for something on Netflix and found ourselves repeating the scroll several times. Finally, the screen changed, and the graphic offered us a choice. It said, "just play something?"Yes, please. Just play something so I can put the remote control down and get back to petting my dog. Thinking back on the moment, I was reminded of a book I read long ago.In 2005, Barry Schwartz wrote Paradox of Choice. It challenged the traditional thinking that maximizing choice is the way to maximum freedom.  It may feel good, but too many choices lead to decision fatigue.Yes, too many choices are not necessarily good, and they can create paralysis. No matter what you choose, you'll always wonder if you could have done better.Here's my advice to you:1) Limit your choices. Having every option won't serve you. Narrow your list to things that truly get your attention. 2) If you find yourself confused, permit yourself to try other options.3) If in doubt, choose to spend your time and attention on what you know gives you the desired results.  There will always be too many choices in our modern life, but that doesn't mean you must accept what is offered.---------------------Our sponsor today is Butcher BoxSign up today at butcherbox.com/dailyboost and use code dailyboost to get free chicken wings for a year.

Slow Dow To Speed UpI was riding my Harley-Davidson Road King a few days ago when my mind suddenly thought -“The Chinese Philosophical concept of Yin and yang describes how opposite or contrary forces may be complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world.”What? What? Huh?Okay. I wasn’t that details until a bit later and some Googling. Still -It happened right before the Daytona Speedway and was thinking about the advice I give my clients about slowing down. It goes like this -“You must slow down to get what you want.”Advice like that is why I get the big bucks for what I do. No, not really. I get paid because nobody believes me, and it’s up to me to prove it.Let’s go riding.Whenever I’m cruising on my motorcycle, I love fast and loud because it makes me smile. That’s the Yin of riding a bike, but you can only go fast and loud for so long before the light turns red in front of you or blue behind you.  Occasionally, the place you were speeding toward gets congested, and you have no choice but to slow down. But when you are a high-performance machine designed to go fast, slowing down can be challenging - especially on an 800-pound Harley. That’s where the Yang of riding a motorcycle comes into play.Slowing down is the opposite of fast, yet it can yield the same result - if you know what you are doing.Whether it’s your life or a motorcycle, success requires precision control. You will continue progressing if you get it right and trust yourself and your machine. On a motorcycle…1) Slow down but keep moving. Never stop.2) Rev your engine so that you always have power to your wheels.3) Since the motorcycle wants to go faster, pull the clutch into the friction zone between nothing and everything while putting your foot on the rear brake.What?Slow down? Rev your engine? Hit the brakes?Yes. That combination virtually assures you keep moving forward in any situation, in complete control, until it’s time to open it up again.That same thing happens in life.You can’t run full out constantly, and sometimes you must stop. You keep moving forward for everything else in between - no matter how slow you go.---------------------Our sponsor today is Butcher BoxSign up today at butcherbox.com/dailyboost and use code dailyboost to get free chicken wings for a year.

Success From Habitat"You need to get out of your comfort zone to succeed!"I can't tell you how many times I've heard that. Thankfully, that silly advice is something I've only accepted a couple of times. I wouldn't say I liked every second of it; I ran right back into what makes me comfortable as soon as I could, and I have never told anybody to leave their comfort zone."But, Scott? Isn't getting out of your comfort zone how you get what you want?"Yes, and no.Don't get me wrong. I firmly believe that you should continually be expanding the limits of your comfort zone to grow into the next chapter of your life. I think you should be pushing the boundaries of your comfort zone until you feel the bubble around you about to burst. Why do I believe this so strongly?Because you will never perform to your full potential if you are not comfortable with your situation, environment, skill set, and just about anything else. Yes, you will do things that scare you occasionally, but you will only grow when the drama subsides and you return to a place of clarity and comfort. From there, anything can happen.The other day, I was chatting with my daughter on the phone and asked what her boys were doing - other than driving her crazy. Her answer made me smile -"Oh, they've been working hard on school stuff today and were hitting the wall. So I released them into their native habitat to get back to themselves."Native habitat?"They're in the backyard digging up worms. They're happy, and I'm happy."From that day forward, whenever I want to grow beyond where I am today, you'll hear me say, "I need to get back to my native habitat so I can get things moving."Do what you do in a way that makes you feel like YOU. The rest will take care of itself.---------------------Our sponsor today is Butcher BoxSign up today at butcherbox.com/dailyboost and use code dailyboost to get free chicken wings for a year.
