If you're anything like me, you've noticed that travel can sometimes overwhelm you and lead to poor decision making (that cinnabon at the airport, extra bags of peanuts on the airplane, snooze button at the hotel). I figured out why, and I created a system for how to reduce this. Check it out in todays "Up On Game" episode.

Henry Ford wrote a book about his friendship with Thomas Edison....Yup, a no brainer. Listen to what made Thomas Edison such an innovator, and what you and I can take from this lesson.

One of my favorite quotes from Robert Greene says this..."When you're humble, you reap the wages of humility". Religion, sports and our parents give us a lot of mixed messages growing up, and the whole idea of being "humble" is certainly one of them. This mindset has shackled up many dreams and goals....Is this you?

This mindset is very prevalent amongst the "entrepreneurs" of the world, especially the ones with very little results. Hope this isn’t you...but if it is, I show you how to shift this mindset. Take a listen.  Time Stamps: (1:22) What mindsets are making you average? (4:48) The story behind this mindset (10:45) The “stingy” mindset (17:23) Have you been in this zone before?

Nipsey is easily one of the most inspiring and motivating artists in the game...Listen as Nip breaks down what he requires from his team.

If you want to make progress and create success, sometimes it's smartest to study what NOT to do, so you can be aware of what's been causing you your frustrations. In this series, I am going to be walking you through the mindset of the weak and the average, and what keeps them there. If you hope to separate yourself from the masses, you have to think different. So the challenge for you is this: do you have the courage to find out what these mindsets and attitudes are, and then have the courage to admit you have been weak and need to change? Check out episode 1, where I break down the first deadly mindset....the "goal setting" mindset. There's a lot of these types running around Instagram. Take a listen. Time Stamps: (1:22) My method of recording (5:00) Honesty. (6:22) Fight the “gorilla” (8:56) What are the mindsets that are keeping you average, inconsistent, anxious, worried, etc. (11:00) “The goal setting mindset” (13:58) Don’t set goals without purpose. (17:00) Can you relate to this mindset?   Imnotyou.c

Many days I go to sleep and wake up with a nagging feeling of "maybe I'm not doing enough....maybe I could do better". In this episode I break down how to handle this emotion.

Have you ever heard someone say "I just want to be happy"? Or maybe you have told yourself that you don't want something, because that is not going to make you "happy"? The word itself is very misunderstood, and I think I know why. Listen to this conversation I had with a coaching group, explaining what my philosophy on happiness is. Time Stamps (1:22) “What is your take on happiness?” Shoutout to Mark from KIV. (2:17) An inside look into one of my Killer Instinct groups.   imnotyou.com/KI

There are a lot of softies out there..... people afraid to go after a goal, preoccupied with the opinions of others, and too worried about how they appear to take a stand, and be a leader. For some of them there is no hope... but for a lot of them, they need a formula for how to transform themselves into a real killa... and by that I mean someone who knows how to be themselves, establish goals and turn them into reality, and repeat. The world needs more of these. Take a listen to hear my take. Time Stamps: (1:22) My brothers and I get into some heated debates… (3:52) The definition of a “KILLA” (5:50) We gotta be leaders. (6:13) “Jungle rules” (8:36) Rule #1: Set aggressive outcomes without limits. (9:37) Rule #2: Boldly face reality, consistently. (10:50) Rule #3: Go through the fire.

Having low energy and a lack of motivation towards your goals is not a good sign, and is certainly not a standard for high performers….So we must find a way to keep and maintain a solid and persistent feeling of motivation and excitement towards what we want. In this episode, I show you how I do that, and it's super simple.

I went crazy when I heard this track for the first time, because of how explicitly Jay-Z and Beyonce describe what a true BOSS is. Check it out.

2 years ago, I quit my stable job to enter the jungle and go after this entrepreneurial hustle... best decision I've ever made. In this episode I share with you the conversation that literally FORCED me to make the decision, and why it's powerful. (disclaimer: I am NOT telling you to quit your job.)

This is a leader that most history books don't mention, but he was an original Lion in the Jungle, and you'll see why in this powerful speech I share with you. 

This book is by PT Barnum, and it was written about as practically and straight to the point as you can get. I love it, and you'll love what he says about the importance of being "systematic" in all you do.
