"Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail" - Emerson Tracks: 0:00 Life, The Greatest Of Teachers - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEn9IPf4d8A 3:55 There I Will Be - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13qgxtUsrgE 7:05 Get Back Up - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7eGSRJPuwc

"It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see" - Thoreau Our perspective is fundamental in creating our reality. While we operate under the premise that the world shapes our outlook, I believe the inverse to be true. The meaning we decide to give to objects, people and events is instrumental in creating the framework within which we operate. It's not what happens that affects us, but rather, how we interpret what happens. Our thoughts are the gateway to the lives we lead.

"Where fear exists opportunity awaits" - EP This episode is about the paradox we face every day as we make our way through life. The only way to grow is to dive head first into the uncompromising and all powerful nature that surrounds and overwhelms us. Interestingly enough, the harder we push against it, the greater we become. Every morning our fears, doubts and insecurities should be highlighted...not so that we can avoid them...but so they can set the stage for our individual expansion. Where fear exists opportunity awaits.

If you're waiting for the perfect time to become who you've always wanted to be, you'll be waiting forever...

"Nothing is more expensive than a missed opportunity" - H. Jackson Brown Jr. This episode is about the cost of inaction. The impact of a decision is not just predicated upon what we choose to do, but also, what we choose not to do.

"When the time comes, your eyes open and the sun lights up the room, hold on. Hold on to the treasures you found, the passion you felt and the journey you experienced. This daily venture should not be a departure, but a continuation of the extraordinary, for dreamers never truly wake." - EP Tracks: 0:00 A New You - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DRmNG-j294 3:54 The Psychology of the 1% - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItDjjHPegGU& 11:48 The Quiet Believers - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rn6ab3AZ4GM&

"To change your life you have to first change the stories you tell yourself" - EP This episode is about the simple understanding that people don't see what has occurred, rather, we see the implications of what has occurred. We bend and manipulate life so that it fits into our self prescribed narratives, rendering the nuance and the details almost meaningless. To sum it all up, life is changed not from external acquisitions, but internal shifts in narrative. Change the story, change your world.

"If you are not willing to be a fool, you can't become a master." - Jordan Peterson This episode is about not being afraid to start from the beginning. As Jordan Peterson states, the only way to become a master is to first be the fool. The road to excellence is a humbling one, but worth it in the end.

"All that counts is that for this day, for this session, I have overcome resistance" - Steven Pressfield This episode is about overcoming the temptation to skip the little things, deeming them irrelevant or unimportant. Inspired by Steven Pressfield's War of Art, I dive into his idea of resistance and how our biggest battle is fought with ourselves and the temptation to settle for mediocrity. As he states in the book, the writer's most challenging task isn't writing, it's getting himself into the chair and ready to write. It's the little things like consistency, preparation and self belief that set the stage for something greater.

"Destiny is a name often given in retrospect to choices that had dramatic consequences" - J.k. Rowling This episode is about separating your past from your future. It distinguishes between appreciating the experiences that have made you who you are and understanding that those experiences are not "you." To change is to leave yesterday's labels behind and embrace the opportunity of today.

“Your life is a reflection of your imagination.” - Eddie Pinero The episode is a compilation of speeches about the transformation of ideas to things and dreams to reality: 0:00 A Life Worth Living - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsuYEChm41w& 9:00 The Things We Don’t Say Out Loud - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEwvwzKl0G4& 14:17 I’m A Loser - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c48lK3pYVy0 16:34 For Those Who Walk Alone - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlXB-Xtnlso 24:49 Letting Your Old Self Die - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcScYMawdU4 28:33 The Little Decisions That Will Change Your Life - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFfNNKofbZk 36:46 There Is Always A Win - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_dmaQsQ9R8& 41:52 The Unreasonable Ones - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyLFEulweRE&t= 45:15 Take Control of Your Life - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoF6kHagnxA&t= 53:25 Never Lose Hope - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwRbi-HFakQ&t

"Well, how do you know it will work out?" the brain asks the heart. "You don't...and that's exactly how you know you're in the right place" - Eddie This episode is about finding the courage to walk alone...

"Those who keep learning, will keep rising in life" - Charlie Munger This episode highlights the idea that life isn't a problem to be solved, but a gift to experience. It is meant to be the most beautiful of experiments, where we explore, learn, grow and ultimately uncover that which is most meaningful. Video: https://bit.ly/3jZbS2b

"You're never helpless. You can always do something. And those little somethings ultimately become everything" - EP This episode is about the power of simplification. The answers we're looking for are right in front of us, buried beneath mountains of unnecessary complexity. When we learn to simplify, we learn how much control we have over our lives.

"To live is to suffer. To survive is to find meaning in the suffering." - Nietzsche This episode is about the role suffering plays in our lives and although often perceived an adversary, is the very thing we need to evolve and transform.

"Every day is a chance to begin again" A blast of adrenaline to start your day! Videos: 0:00 You vs You: https://bit.ly/3ec2jM4 5:10 Take Control of Your Life: https://bit.ly/31SsliD  

"Embrace the seasons and cycles of your life. There is magic in change." - Bronnie Ware This episode is about understanding the impermanence of winter in our lives. Difficult times are unavoidable and will never be completely mitigated. The goal however, is not to fear and avoid them but to see them as the gateway to something better...the bridge to spring and ultimately summer.

Our best work emerges during periods of high productivity... This episode is about the importance of achieving quality through quantity. It is not the art of perfection, but repetition that ultimately sharpens our skillset and results in our best work.

"Sometimes all that is required is the courage to show up and try again" - @Eddie Pinero This episode talks about the fine line between success and failure and how the two look so similar that they are frequently misidentified. A bad outcome does not always suggest that the approach is incorrect or the effort was in vain. Sometimes the difference between success and failure rests on nothing more than the courage to show up and try again.

"When it comes to your journey though life, there is not a right way or a wrong way. There is your way." - Eddie Pinero This episode reinforces the flexibility we have in life to blaze our own trails. There is a tendency to look at the paths of others and assume them to be right or wrong, forgetting that the metric for a fulfilling life lives in each of us individually. If it means something to you, it's not wrong.

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson This episode is about finding the courage to show the world who you are. It reminds us that to study, understand and emulate is not enough. Fulfilling your potential requires injecting your authentic self into that which already exists. Anyone can react...but few are willing to build something for others to react to.  You have the ability. The question is, do you have the courage? This episode reminds you why you most certainly do.

"You can't change the wind, but you can adjust the sails to reach your destination" - Paulo Coelho This episode is about our ability to navigate through life, both putting ourselves in position to succeed while also accepting that which we cannot control. We cannot create luck, but we can create ourselves. Therefore we are not owed any outcome nor can we count on one, but we are always able, through hard work and consistency, to increase the odds of success.

The struggle is beautiful. It means that you're in the midst of separating the good from the great... This is a compilation of three speeches pertaining to mindset, reframing the way we look at and think about life. 0:00 Reasons - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gry2BfCRAf0& 6:18 No Matter How Hard It Gets - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJxWXgLD3rQ&t 11:23 The Quiet Believers - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rn6ab3AZ4GM&  

You weren't put here to live in the shadows of life... This speech is about refusing to stay in the shadows of life. It highlights the idea that we all find ourselves in the dark from time to time, scared, unsure, and lost. But rather than a permanent fate, these occurrences are temporary resting places, as we find the courage and resolve to gain perspective and carry on.

"People do not have ideas, ideas have people" - Carl Jung This episode is about avoiding the inclination to look at life as a binary, team sport in which one side is correct and the other is not. It's a reminder that truth is found in the grey areas, and when things feel black and white, we have often forgotten to listen or further examine the situation in front of us. Of course we should be people of principle, cherishing our beliefs and maintaining the courage of our convictions, but also understanding that these are simply ideas we hold. They do not define us and are not confined to a life long marriage. Freedom requires that we are willing to think, question ideas and be open to change.

"Those waiting for life to hand out miracles will always be left behind by those who simply show up and do the work" - EP This video is about the importance of consistently showing up to do the little things...particularly when you're tired or don't feel like it.  Those little decisions compound to become "the big things." 

To get what others don't have, you must be willing to do what others won't do... This episode is about both the difficulty and the upside associated with a life lived on your own terms. Walking alone is trading comfort for meaning and safety for growth. Never easy...but ultimately worth it. Support Your World Within on Patreon for more exclusive content: https://bit.ly/3jBgqwl

That good things take time is one of life's greatest truths... This speech dives into the value of working hard and staying patient. We often fall into the trap of thinking that no validation in the present is indicative of our value or lack there of. This thinking, however, contradicts one of life's greatest truths: good things take time.

"Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you'll look back and realize they were the big things" - Robert Brault This speech is about appreciating the little things in life that we often dismiss as insignificant detail on the way to something greater. It is a call to rethink what is truly important and live accordingly. Support Your World Within on Patreon for more exclusive content: https://bit.ly/3jBgqwl

In this episode I delve into 3 topics: 1: 10 questions everyone should ask themselves - A list of self-reflecting questions I have learned to ask myself over time that has had a positive impact on my life 2: Failing Forward - The idea that failing is the only way to make progress.  Refusal to fail is refusal to grow. 3: When Life Hits You - A look at Admiral McRaven's metaphor of becoming a "sugar cookie," the idea that life is not always fair and often doesn't make sense.  It is our job not to project out and shake our fist at the universe, but rather to asses the situation and do everything in our power to make the most of it.  

In this week's episode I delve into three topics, all related to moving away from a scarcity mindset and towards the upside in life: 1. Take the Risk 2. The Greatest Story Ever Written 3. The Architect of Light

In this episode I talk about the pros and cons of risk taking, and how the vast majority of what holds us back in life is reversible. This means that if things don't end up the way we had hoped, we are able to take a step back, readjust and try again, essentially making the downside negligible. The upside, on the other hand, is tremendous and potentially even life-altering, making the risk very often worth the reward.

"Even the greatest of accomplishments can be broken down into a culmination of simple, unremarkable decisions" - EP

"One of my mantras is 'do the brave thing.' It doesn't matter the outcome because I have no control over the outcome. But if I take action, I win." I this episode I sit down with actress, dancer and model Rachele Brooke Smith to discuss topics such as her journey to Hollywood, dealing with rejection, achievement vs enjoyment and much more. You can connect with Rachele here: https://www.rachelebsmith.com/

In this episode I sit down with Mark Metry, author, speaker and podcaster to discuss: - How a change in perspective helped transform Mark from anxious, depressed and suicidal to someone able to see the good in life and pursue his passion - Finding the positive during these challenging covid 19 restrictions/lockdowns - The amazing upside/opportunity of utilizing social media... as well as the danger associated with using some of its metrics to measure success - Living a life of authenticity and finding the courage to improve upon the things that matter to you most

In this episode I talk about an upcoming change to the show and set the stage for a new chapter.

In this episode I sit down with Kelly Edelman, founder of the massive social media brand, @eyeinspired, and talk about how she turned a passion for art into a platform that both entertains and inspires millions around the globe.

...what if I change the way I look at the world?

In this episode I shine a spotlight on those thoughts, ideas, and dreams that we tuck away in the back of our minds as unrealistic. All change requires: 1. Believing more is out there and that you are capable of obtaining it 2 Taking small steps forward This understanding is how we turn thoughts into things..

Life is peaks and valleys, joy and grief, comfort and discomfort.  You simply can't have one without the other.  And to live fulfilled is to understand that it's during our low points that we are required to be our best, trust ourselves, and relentlessly march toward higher ground.

“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you find you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start over again.” -F. Scott Fitzgerald In this episode I talk about the opportunity that always awaits on the other side of the door you're standing behind.

In this episode, I delve into the notion that progress = happiness and talk about the power of creating meaning in our lives.

Sometimes we don't realize that by choosing immediate comfort, consistency, and short term gains, we are forfeiting the potential for something more down the line. This episode is about betting on yourself to build your ideal life, and not settling for less.

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you someone else is the greatest accomplishment" - Ralph Waldo Emerson In this episode I talk about having strength in your convictions and rather than apologizing for the things that set you apart, doubling down and fully embracing them.

In this episode I am joined by Zach Kadolph as we discuss the meaning behind the video "I'm a loser" and the power of gaining perspective as one moves forward in life.

In this episode I play a track called "I'm a loser" ...a play on words about the importance of losing the things that hold you back and  using life's lows to propel you to your highs.

“We have always held to the hope, the belief, the conviction that there is a better life, a better world, beyond the horizon.” - Franklin Delano Roosevelt In this episode I talk about the power of hope and our ability to: 1. believe something greater is possible and 2. do something to bring about our desired change

In this episode I talk about a 10 million dollar check that Jim Carrey wrote himself before ever landing a movie role, and how visualization and belief are always step one when pursuing something greater.
