Transcribe →Growth Concept Series Part 3 - Success Precedes Confidence
Aug 29, 202200:23:55Tap to summarizeHere are the 3 Steps to building unshakable 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 and 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 are two separate things. Many people are Motivated, very few are Confident. You may be inspired or motivated to do something, but until you take 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, make 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 or actually 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 it you won't be confident. Because true unshakable 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 is only EARNED. Progress and action are the primary way to build 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. A self-confident person is simply someone who keeps promises to themselves. Those promises compound over time.... Good or Bad. 𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 precedes 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝟯 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟭: Make is as simple as possible -Start small, remove obstacles, execute 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟮: Make it measurable -Know when you completed the task 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟯: Prioritize - Simplify to 3 -Everything does not matter equally 𝗕𝗼𝗻𝘂𝘀: 𝟯 𝘃𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗼𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 1. Competency- Develop great competency in your craft. Have a high competency in what you do. 2. Autonomy- YOU are responsible for YOU. Have Extreme Ownership of your life, where it is now and where it is going. 3. Relationships- Build great relationships.

Transcribe →Growth Concept Series Part 2 - Champion Spirit
Aug 16, 202200:14:26Tap to summarize"𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁" is simply being passionate about being great in everything you do. If I choose to do something, I will do it the best that I possibly can. Every day we are training ourselves to be great or to be average. Everything you choose to do on daily basis you can train yourself to be great. Because… there is no such thing as 𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲, only 𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁. Choose to live your daily life as a "𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻"."𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻" your day by choosing to do every task the best that you possibly can. When you do this, you build 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 is easy and most people are confused by it. It is simply someone who keeps promises to themselves. The small internal promises you make to yourself that no one knows about, keep those, and watch your confidence grow. 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 is your reputation with yourself. Build your reputation with yourself. If you can trust you, you are not worried or concerned about others.

Transcribe →Illusion of CHOICE
Mar 1, 202200:12:02Tap to summarizeThis is driven from a chapter in the late, great Trevor Moawads book, "It takes what takes"Deep down, we all know our choices ultimately determine our behaviors and those behaviors ultimately determine our outcomes. Better said, every choice has a consequence or an outcome.But… If we’re SERIOUS about actualizing our potential, achieving greatness, winning our own version of the World Series then there simply IS NO CHOICE. Moment to moment to moment we need to step in and give our 100, be the best version of ourselves. PERIOD.We want to think choice is awesome. But, ultimately it’s NOT. When we’re all in, there is no choice.When you feel like you have choice or too many options. Its because you haven't actually decided.When you get up? When you go to sleep? How you train? How you show up in your Work and your Love? So, let’s drop the illusion and make the ultimate decision that makes all the little decisions for us. Let’s go for greatness.

Transcribe →Do you feel stuck in life?
Feb 22, 202200:14:02Tap to summarizeThings aren't going your way.Upset, overwhelmed, frustrated? Join Jeremy as he discussed a framework with could change everything for you!It's a new year and the same sh*t is happening. Why are there so many people just soaring and it seems like nothing bothers them, they always have it all figured out. It's very simple. Not easy, but simple.What if I told you it comes down to some simple framework. Building a framework that you can use anytime, any day, any situation.More importantly, a Reflective Framework Having a model or framework encourages a structured process to guide the act of reflection. Leads to positive action. Creates less stress, overwhelm and frustration.Here is one to give a try! What, So What, Now WhatWhat - Reflect and describe the current situation or circumstance? What happened or What is happening? Be as objective as possible. So What - How do I feel about this? Describe feelings, ideas and analysis of the situation, circumstance or experience. What impacts the way you view it(What lens are you viewing from)?Now What - What are you willing to do about it? What did I learn? What can I apply? This is the action step, the let it go or do something about it. "Motion creates emotion" Changing your physiology means changing your mental state and breaking your negative patterns. Great physiology, therefore, leads to great emotions, and that is one of the keys to getting unstuck. Foster a positive mental state and get unstuck by changing your physiology!Connect with Jeremy and Optimal Self: Links: (We LOVE to be tagged in your posts, please share our content and tag us!)
