501. Play to the image that you want to see.

Have you ever talked to someone over the phone & in that 1 phone call you determined what they looked like- all the way down to their race, weight, height, & success?

The question is what image are you playing to? Here are your juicy show notes! https://marshbuice.wordpre...

497. Measure your activities not their results

You want what “they” have right? There’s nothing wrong with wanting more...but how do you get there? They seem to be 4000 miles ahead of you. If you chase their results, you’ll quit.

495. Change is 3 degrees at a time

An aircraft carrier is steered 3 degrees at a time. If you ever get to a point where you have to suddenly make a 30 degree turn, it’s not because of the moment, it’s because you didn’t make the 3 degree course corrections 5 miles ago. Think of your life as an aircraft carrier. You’re not gonna turn your ship 🚢 all at once, but you begin to “tick” it in the right direction. (& Don’t take your ticks back 😉) TSL 3 degree action step today: What is your course correction tick today? Change doesn’...

492. "I wish I was more persistent."

Don't we all. That's why I've got you on this episode. Persistence is a skill, not a talent-so the good news is, you can develop it. Persistence requires 4 ingredients: Purpose, Plan, Focus, & Alliance. If you find you're not persistent, it's probably because you're deficient in 1 or more of these areas. TSL Action Plan: 1. In which of the 4 ingredients are you lacking most? 2. FOR 7 DAYS ONLY! What will you specifically do to improve that ingredient? 3. After 7 days, renew the contract :)...

488. “It’s the details, man!”

When he retired, Deion Sanders told Jerry Rice that he knew what route he was about to run by the way he placed his foot before the ball was snapped. Sanders kept volumes of details on every player he faced. Tony Gonzalez agreed...when he speaks to new NFL players he tells them, “You’re not that special,” at this level everyone is fast & strong. The greatest separator is in the details. The more professional you are the more details you should keep...but why is it usually opposite? Once you g...

485. Be afraid...but act fearless

Hollywood producer Brian Grazer works w/ big named actors & they are short on patience- especially when things go off the rails. He learned early on that even though he’s afraid, he acts fearless- not bc he’s a badass, but bc it keeps him loose. Fear keeps you tight...w/ no action you lose your options & no options = no favorable outcome. Will things go wrong? Yes. But bc you act with intention, you can figure it out and keep moving forward.
