stop getting in your own way

The Only Person Stopping You Is You

Back when I was in and out of college and working multiple jobs just to scrape by, I had a terrible victim mentality. I always complained about how tough my life was, that everyone had it easier than me, and that it was always someone else’s fault for my lack of success and my situation.

How Do You Change Your Life?

Coach Jimmy here and I have a bit of an issue that I want to ask you about today. Every day I get a message in my inbox or via my Facebook page or something like and and it sounds something kind of like this. “Jimmy, I’ve been watching you for a long time. I’ve watched your weight loss, I’ve watched you take off a hundred pounds, completely change your life, and keep it off for over ten years. You know I’ve been watching really consistently and I’m really inspired by you and I’m ready to change my life. I want to get started.”

success or excuses

Excuses or Success? You Can Only Choose One

My buddy, and fellow Beachbody Coach, Chris Balmert absolutely nails it with this video about some real life excuses he’s heard from people on why they can’t get started working towards their goals. At the end of the day, you have to choose whether you’re willing to put in the work to get what you want or you’re okay just giving an excuse. You just have to ask yourself if your future, your dream, is worth an excuse?

The Gary Vee Twitter Hustle I Used to Build my Business

So I got a quick tip for you today and it’s one that I’ve been using for a really long time but I think it’s always important to give credit where credit is due. I consider myself the ultimate student when it comes to student of the game when it comes to business and productivity and getting ahead in areas, which is funny because as a former three-time college dropout, I used to have a belief system that I was a very bad student. I just realized I was in the wrong structure that the formal structure of school and college and the way the traditional world tells you that you’re supposed to learn, I didn’t fit into very well and so I was told, “Hey you’re a bad student.”

Paint the Fence, Every Day

Much of what we do in our professional lives doesn’t pay immediate dividends. It’s what I’ve taken to calling “painting the fence”, because it’s so easy to focus on getting the results you can’t control rather than the things in your control.

Take Back Control Over Your Life

Don’t Let Fear Ruin Your Future

There’s nothing that gets me more fired up and motivated than meeting new people that have great stories about their overcoming adversity to achieve something amazing. Sometimes the story is heartbreaking, but there’s always a silver lining. They show just how truly indomitable the human spirit is and that anything is possible. The fire in their messages is truly exciting. It’s infectious.
