That’s how former NFL player Trent Shelton addresses those who judge him by his past. Like Trent, e-ver-eeeee-one, everyone has a past...we’ve all got some yesterdays we’re not proud of...which is why we don’t play big today. We know this & don’t want to raise up the skeletons, so keep our heads down & stay to ourselves...we just do our “job” & go home...I say F🖕 all that...you got so much more to give-not us...but to yourself. If they’re gonna judge you, give ‘em something to talk about. ~Stay ...

Diversity is what we call in the South a gumbo (mouth waters 🤤)...it’s a mixture of unlike things. Businesses want to be diverse in their mix of employees & management...Netflix is diverse in what shows they offer you...but when it comes to our own lives we often lack diversity...we lack unlikeness. We hang, watch, & discuss things with people who act, think, & are like us & over time it’s made you rigid in thought, hostile @ times, & inflexible. Today’s episode challenges you to 1)hang with peo...

This week’s title & thoughts come from Austin Kleon’s book, “Keep Going.” I love Austin’s books because they have pictures (😂) & aren’t very long reads. ⭐️Today’s episode urges you to stop chasing your nouns in Life, i.e. positions, titles, statuses & just do your verb. Do the work & when you do, your noun will show up in the right way. • WE ARE ON FACEBOOK! Join The Sales Life with Marsh Buice Facebook group and get 'Mo Sales Life!

Steven Kotler (who wrote one of my favorite books “The Rise of Superman”) said on a recent podcast w/ Michael Gervais, “Rule #1: Never trust the dopamine.” Dopamine is the neurochemical that is released into your system when you get recognized, likes, retweets, or reach celebrity status. ⭐️The danger with chasing the dopamine is you never get off the treadmill of chasing the next praise, soliciting the next round of applause, and craving the next compliment & in doing so, you start skipping step...

“The Edge is the place where the hair on the back of your head stands up...when you’ve achieved a level of clarity unlike any other...when you know exactly what you must do..” but often don’t.⭐️What’s Your Edge? You have an edge, but often you look at your edge as a ledge- afraid that if you take the leap, there’s no coming back. But, “Life is not one leap...it’s a series of leaps.” Tommy Baker. ⭐️Time to get leapin’. 😉💪 Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marshbuice/message

Today's episode is deeply personal for me & was a revelation after I read an interview between Howard Stern and Hip Hop's first Billionaire Jay Z, retold in his self titled book, "Howard Stern Comes Again." Jay told Stern of his anger he had with his father who abandoned his wife and children to avenge the death of his brother. At age 12 Jay & his fractured family were left to fight and survive the harsh, crack-filled streets of Brooklyn, NY alone. A month before his father's death, Jay Z & his ...

When David Epstein worked for Sports Illustrated, students would often write him & ask him for advice if they should major in journalism or writing?...Epstein couldn’t answer that question because he majored in Geology & Astronomy. ⭐️ How in the world would those skills enable him to leap past a pool of others waiting to be the next beat writer? ⭐️Oliver Smith wrote, “You’re probably not going to have totally unique skills...& you're probably not going to have totally unique problems...so take y...

When I was reading Tommy Baker's book, "The Leap of Your Life" he mentioned a book that peaked my curiosity titled, "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway," by Susan Jeffers, so I started reading that one too :) In it, Jeffers writes, "You are not responsible for all of the experiences IN your Life, but you are responsible for the experiences OF your Life." As I continued reading, I kept coming back to that thought. You are going to have some bad shit happen in your Life-many times outside of your cont...

I was listening to an author on a podcast the other day & he said, "No single day is heroic, the secret is showing up..." Initially I was like "YES!" I running with that thought, but the more I got to thinking, it didn't seem right because the heroic act is in the single days...when you don't feel like showing up...yet you do. The heroic is showing up "anyway." WE ARE ON FACEBOOK! Join The Sales Life with Marsh Buice Facebook group and get 'Mo Sales Life! Extra clips, videos-what I'm reading & ...

In Episodes #203 & #348 we talked about the need for stress in your Life...but what about pressure?

During an interview, Sam Jones complemented actor Jeff Daniel's pragmatism and professionalism. Daniels said his approach came from some wise advice he received many years ago, "The Limo you're sitting in today is rented and someone will be sitting in this same limo tomorrow-so be grateful for what you have today."

In 1955 Robert Stine wanted to photograph the non-Hollywood version of Marilyn Monroe so they tamed Norma Jean's curls, put on an overcoat and no one seemed to notice as she road the NY City subway. When they returned to the station and walked back up to the streets of NY, Norma Jean turned to the photographers and said, "Do you want to see her?"....& what they saw made them speechless. Today's episode draws Todd Herman's book "The Alter Ego Effect," & speaks to the power of your Alter Ego. We...

When Joe Rogan was asked how he dealt with the shadows that still linger in his life, Rogan answered that he creates his struggle through rigorous workouts, MMA training, performing in comedy clubs, running multiple businesses, and creating one of the world's top rated podcast. Humans are wired for conflict and if we do not purposefully build conflict into our lives, conflict will find its way into our lives through toxic relationships, drugs and alcohol, maxed out credit cards, poor performance...

Charlie Munger wrote, “The man who can play all instruments can write his own symphony, but the man who can play one instrument is limited to just playing his part.” Munger’s symphony is “investing” & his instruments are the businesses he’s developed a deep understanding for. That’s what’s earned him billionaire status.~ If your success has wained, it’s probably because you’re playing too few of instruments. Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/marshbuice/message

When you come across a chapter titled, "Adversity," you know I'm in! When it comes from the pen of John Maxwell, I'm definitely in! The story, told in Maxwell's book, "Sometimes You Win, Sometimes You Learn," is of a young woman complaining to her dad about how unfair and difficult her life is. She goes on and on about how difficult it is for her to make in her cruel world. Without saying a word her dad walks over to the stove and boils 3 pots of water. His answer to her were in those pots. ~ TH...

I’m reading “The Change Agent” by Damon West. It’s a true story of redemption going from QB to a drug addict, sentenced to life in prison who is a free man today. While serving a life sentence, Damon West made the decision to get clean & real with himself and do the inner work of improving a little bit each day. His body may be imprisoned, but his mind was not. He lived his mantra, “Do your time, but don’t let time do you.” ⭐️You may be facing some sentences in your life & even though they may b...

With nearly 400 episodes in the can, it’s easy to forget something that we talked about 300 episodes ago. This episode was Episode #112 & I think it’s worth replaying bc when we miss...when we fail, fall, or miss out, we normally beat ourselves up with either “I should’ve jumped on the opportunity,” or “I bombed this one.” But keep in mind the results will vary...but the feedback is constant. Keep making the adjustments and what you “miss” is just a part of your Momentum Train 🚂 Send in a voice...
