Last night I was honored to be able to play in a scrimmage game between two strong teams. Yes this beautiful sport has brought us another lesson in business.

Last night I played probably better then I played all season. I went 3 for 5 scored a couple runs. Made a few plays in the field.

I also made a few mistakes on miss judged balls in the field,and got out twice at the plate. These things are ok if we don’t let them affect us on the negative and allow it to change how we play.

Just like on our road to success we will make mistakes along the way. The key is making sure we learn from these mistakes and grow as person/business owner.

I want to touch on play like you practice. This brings us back to consistency. If you are doing the same processes and procedures in your business and giving it your all in every situation good for you, but we tend to get comfortable in certain situations leading to us taking short cuts.

We can also add the saying here how you do one thing is how you do everything. So commit and give it your best every time.

I know you have it in you. Do you have the right mindset? Keep unlocking your success.

Yes it was a close game we came out and took an early lead, they fought back. We went back and forth for a couple innings, but it was our consistency and the ability to shake off the few mistakes we made and stay focused that help come out with the Win.

I have always been a Jim Abbot fan. This puts his strength to overcome challenges in perspective. A true definition of “No Ya Buts.”

Jim Abbott is one of the most remarkable stories in baseball history. Because he was born without a right hand, his parents encouraged him to play soccer as a kid. But he loved baseball.

And despite his disability, he became a terrific baseball player.

As a senior at Central High School in Flint, MI, he won 10 games on the mound and played first base and outfield on the days he wasn't pitching -- hitting .427 with seven home runs. That led to the opportunity to continue his career at the University of Michigan.

There, Abbott received the Golden Spikes Award as the top amateur player in the country in 1987, beating out Ken Griffey Jr. and Robin Ventura. After compiling a 26-8 record at Michigan, Abbott was selected in the first round of the 1988 MLB Draft by the California Angels.

Without any minor-league seasoning, he landed in the Angels' starting rotation in 1989, and then enjoyed his finest season as a big leaguer in 1991 when he went 18-11 with a 2.89 ERA in 34 starts for California and finished third in balloting for the Cy Young Award behind Boston's Roger Clemens and Minnesota's Scott Erickson.

Abbott tossed a no-hitter as a member of the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium on September 4, 1993 -- against a potent Cleveland Indians' lineup that included Kenny Lofton, Carlos Baerga, Albert Belle, Manny Ramirez, Jim Thome and Sandy Alomar Jr.

Abbott once described his incredible journey by saying: "I truly believe that difficult times and disappointments can push us to find abilities and strengths that we wouldn't know existed without the experience of struggles."

What’s going on social media world. Are you paying attention to the information you take in and the impact it has on your subconscious mind.

The information we take in is as important as the food we eat if not more. If the information you take in does not align with your values your subconscious can stand in the way of you having the right mindset to unlock your success.

So in conclusion make sure you are taking the right content to help you succeed. Make sure it’s a reputable source that aligns with your goals and values. Make a conscious effort to take in positive content. I know this can be tuff in todays world, but if something triggers you even if it is on a topic you believe in understand that and filter that out with a positive subject.

I know you have it in you. Do you have the right mindset? Keep unlocking your success.

I did some downhill mountain biking this weekend. It reminded me that we will face adversity in all most everything we do.

I had gotten two flat tires on my very two first runs of the day. The first one was on my front tire, and those of you who ride or have ridden a down hill bike know you need at least a set of allen wrenches to change. So I had to take the 20 minute ride back down the mountain to get to my truck and change that one. No big deal just a little extra time.

Then after my 20 minute ride back up the mountain I got a rear flat. Some of you might be thinking it is time to load up today is not your day. Not I, I drove 45 minutes and this was my first time at this bike park, and my first time back on a true downhill course in a long time.

Thank God they had tubes up top and my rear wheel is quick release. So after a quick tube change I was back shredding.

It got me thinking. That a lot of people face a couple flat tires and give up on there dreams or goals. We should not allow any situation to keep us from accomplishing our dreams.

We need to look at them as an opportunity to learn and move forward. If I had let these two flat tires ruin my day on the mountain. I would have not got to experience one of the most epic downhill rides I have ever ridden.

This brings me to my next point. I had not ridden like that in over a decade. I was a little sketchy on my first couple runs, but I had to remember I was one of the best riders in my class for many years and that I had the skills and ability to ride with anyone on that mountain yesterday.

I just needed to believe in myself and remember it is like riding a bike. Once I had changed my mindset I fell into a grove and was hit every line I wanted to hit and even show boating. I felt like I was 20 something again.

Just because you have not done it in awhile doesn't mean you can't or that you are not able to. It is all about the right mindset. I know you have it in you. Do you have the right mindset? Keep unlocking your success.

In the journey we are on of our purpose we often get imposter syndrome. The feeling of not being good enough or that maybe we are copy cats.

You do not have to feel that way. Remember everything you are teaching your followers through your experiences, is something you learned from someone else and their experiences.

The hardest thing I think we need to understand as entrepreneurs is that not everyone will resinate with your teachings just like not everyone did not resinate with your mentor or coach. This is why it is important to get out there and share your story because someone does need to hear it.

For you, your mentors, and coaches to reach and help as many people as possible you need to share your story. You are not an imposter you are another soul on another journey that needs to be heard.

By keeping your body and mind in the right places you can touch and help more people.

I know the road is long and tuff, but you would not be doing the world justice if you did not teach the world what you have learned.

I guarantee you that your mentors/coaches would not be mad if you continued in there shoes to change the world one story at a time.

I know you can do it. Do you have the right mindset? Keep unlocking your success everyday.

You may be asking why is this a delayed gratification accomplishment. Yes I probably could have purchased one a couple different times over the years, but the surroundings never lined up the right way, like the way they did last week.

I know a lot of you are thinking that because I’ve spent 90% of my life working in a dealership or around finance I must be good with money. Well that’s true now, but it was not always that way.

I’m grateful that my wife is as diligent and smart as she is. She is the guiding light behind my money management, she has taught more then she knows. Along with her and my mentors in the mortgage industry I’ve a learned the skill of money management.

This is a huge discipline that yes you can learn, you do not always have to be terrible with your finances. Once you learn this skill and I know you can if you do not have it all ready. You will be able to understand the meaning and the discipline behind delayed gratification.

I’m not perfect at this by any means, but just like most things it is a constant learning process. Priorities change, and life happens.

I’m grateful for my wife and the people in my life who have taught me this over the years. I know you have it in you. Do you have the right mindset? Keep unlocking your success.

Well you guessed it. Last nights softball game has brought us yet another lesson. Love this game.

We played a team that looked good and had some rocking music jamming out of their dugout, but they could not put two solid innings together.

I am true believer in dressing the part and looking good, but if you do not have the basic fundamentals to make solid plays. You are not impressing anybody.

This brings us to todays thoughts. Yes in your business you need to look good and professional, but if you are not practicing the skills you need to make the sale of keep your clients happy. You may end up looking like a clown.

If you look good and dress the part 100% it brings up your confidence, but if you do not have the skills to put the deal together or satisfy your clients wants and needs this takes your confidence levels down. This also brings the level of confidence down in your clients.

We have all heard the saying word of mouth is your best form of advertising. This is very true, and it works the same way when you do not have your whole game on point.

I know you have it in you. Do you have the right mindset? Lets unlock your success.

Mindset tip of the day. The people you surround yourself with affects your mindset more then you think. We all know we are the some of the 5 people we hang around with.

I’m not telling you you have to get the negative people out if your life completely, because I know that’s a tuff ask. What I’m saying though is you need to prioritize your time with the right people and make that time count.

If your constantly around the negative energy it will attach itself to you. You need to limit your time in those situations, and doing that you may help those around you understand the importance of positivity.

A group of winners and people becoming the best versions of themselves do not have time for the things that pull them down. They want to be on top and will take every step they need to, to get there.

The most important thing too, is they will not bring you down. If you show you are trying to learn and be on their level they will help you up the ladder not push you down.

Keep unlocking your success one day at a time. I know you have it in you. Do you have the right mindset?

Good morning, I told you all about my plans for the weekend and everything was a blast and very successful.

Here are a few pics from the weekend. I wanted to share something I thought of over the weekend during my golf event. That I think can relate to how you do business.

For those of you who have never played in a charity golf tournament before, and this was my first one. They provide you with different ways to improve your score or hurt other peoples scores. Some cost money well most of them do. It is for a good cause.

It got me thinking as we were playing and taking advantage of every way we could to get this best score we could.

Are you guys taking advantage of everything you can in your business so that you can succeed. Are you calling in the ringer down that lives down the street cause one of your team members did not show. Are you paying for the advantages in your space to get you to the top.

Yes nothing in life or business is free you need to be able to take those risks you need to, to put yourself or your business on the top. Even if does cost and extra buck or two.

The money and effort you put in now will pay off in the long game. It is important to understand that this game of life and business is just not about the play you making now, but setting yourself up for the next play too.

Lets go out and unlock your success today and for tomorrow. I know each and everyone of you has it in you. Are you in the right mindset to make it happen?

This is one of my favorite sayings. You can apply this to almost anything.

If your latest marketing plan is or isn’t working, throttle out.

Your trying to start a new business and don’t know what road it’s going down, throttle out.

Your trying to impress the wife and don’t know what she’ll think, throttle out.

Remember, when in doubt throttle out.
Braaaaaaaaaaaaap!!!!!💯💯💯
