ITG #21 - Time Management
51m · Published
Hello everyone, welcome to Inspired To Greatness… Today we have a great show all about Time Management, and we are joined by wonderful folks, Dana and David Hagstrom. They tell us their story and we chat about how they are helping online businesses, how to plan for retirement, and what a spider taco might be like!
If you want to make good use of your time, you’ve got to know what’s most important and then give it all you’ve got.
Lee Iacocca
Time is money.
Benjamin Franklin
-It’s interesting to me that I’ve used this quote so often, as millions of other people do, I’m sure, and never knew it was a Benjamin Franklin quote. And I also thought about how Time is like money as I was show prepping… what’s interesting to me is not the ways that time is LIKE money (you can spend it or trade it)… but the main difference. Money you can lose or gain… I can always go out and make more money; but time… once it’s gone, it’s gone. And we spend so much time chasing money, that I think people really have lost the value of time.

The great dividing line between success and failure can be expressed in five words: “I did not have time.”
Franklin Field
— Understanding the value of time and the importance of priorities is vital for the success of any person or business. If you don’t know how valuable time is you will waste it; and if you don’t have a set of priorities you won’t know how to spend the time you have.
We are only given a finite amount of time in this life. You get to decide, for the most part, how you spend that time. Each day you decide what you are trading that time for… and when that day is over it’s gone, all the only thing left in it’s place is what you traded that day for. Make sure you trade your days for something worthwhile.

ITG #20 - Emotional Intelligence
55m · Published
Hey Everyone, I am VERY excited about this episode; which is the start of a 6 episode series. But FIRST: I want to apologize for a few little audio issues in the show, we are recording remotely, due to Covid-19, and the internet was not holding up its end of things today... it's not much, and it's only a few little spots, but I do apologize for the issues.
Emotional Intelligence:
the capacity to be aware of, control, and express one's emotions, and to handle interpersonal relationships judiciously and empathetically.
According to Daniel Goleman , an American psychologist who helped to popularize emotional intelligence, there are five key elements to it:
* Self-awareness.
* Self-regulation.
* Motivation.
* Empathy.
* Social skills.
In this episode we will take a look at emotional intelligence overall... on the next 5 shows, we will discuss each of the 5 elements of Emotional Intelligence!
“Use pain as a stepping stone, not a campground.” —- Alan Cohen
“Whatever is begun in anger, ends in shame.” —- Benjamin Franklin
“We are dangerous when we are not conscious of our responsibility for how we behave, think, and feel.” -— Marshall B. Rosenberg

“When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with creatures of logic, but with creatures of emotion.” -Dale Carnegie
“Some people think only intellect counts: knowing how to solve problems, knowing how to get by, knowing how to identify an advantage and seize it. But the functions of intellect are insufficient without courage, love, friendship, compassion, and empathy.” -Dean Koontz
A leader is a dealer in hope. -Napoleon Bonaparte
Emotional intelligence trumps IQ all the time... you can learn skills and learn how to use tools... but it’s vastly more difficult to learn how to not be a jerk. In decades past it was the alpha male, they type a personality, the ultra-aggressive people that were successful... that’s just how it was, but in today’s society, having empathy, caring about others and their well being is what wins.

ITG #18 - Hard Work
1h 7m · Published
Welcome to Inspired to Greatness, we are all about Inspiration, Motivation, and being Great!
Today we are talking about HARD WORK!
"I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it." ~ Thomas Jefferson, former President of the United States
Guest Info:
Chad & Josh from Deluxe Roofing
https://www.deluxeroofingdfw.com/
Business Tip:
Make a top 5 list:
Make a list of 5 things that you WILL do every day. 5 things that will make you a better person, a better business owner, a better athlete, whatever you want to be… 5 things EVERY DAY. You don’t skip, you don’t put it off, you DO it!

I know the price of success: dedication, hard work and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen. ~ Frank Lloyd Wright, architect and writer
Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is hard work. ~ Stephen King, American author
It’s not about money or connection — it’s the willingness to outwork and outlearn everyone. ~ Mark Cuban, American investor
Chop your own wood and it will warm you twice. ~ Henry Ford, American industrialist
Hard work doesn’t just get you to success… hard work is also its own reward. There is a sense of pride in work completed. Imagine cleaning out your garage… that is often quite a job. It’s hard, usually takes a while… but when it’s done you stand there smiling with your hands on your hips looking at your clean garage. If you want to reach your defined level of success or build something worth building then you have to work hard… you have to work like you are trying to climb out of a bottomless pit like it’s life or death.

ITG #17 - Building Success
1h 15m · Published
Welcome to the Inspired To Greatness Podcast... Today we are talking about BUILDING SUCCESS!! This was probably one of my most favorite episodes we've ever done... if you want to get FIRED UP then give it a listen!
Quotes for our Topic: ( Building Success)
"Opportunities don't happen. You create them."
-- Chris Grosser
“Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm."
-- Winston Churchill
“If your ship doesn’t come in, swim out to meet it!”

“Failure defeats losers, failure inspires winners.”
– Robert T. Kiyosaki
“Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle." – Napoleon Hill
"If you don’t build your dream, someone else will hire you to help them build theirs." – Dhirubhai Ambani, founder, Reliance Industries
“Don't settle for average. Bring your best to the moment. Then, whether it fails or succeeds, at least you know you gave all you had. We need to live the best that's in us.” —Angela Bassett
Dreams don’t just appear, they are built!
Success is not given, it is earned! You can define your success in many ways, but the only way to FEEL success is to give your ALL! 2nd place, when you have given it your absolute best, feels way better than 1st place with little effort! Because you know you have done everything you can do! Everything in your life is “your fault”. Every win, every loss, every mountain, and setback is yours to embrace and own. Once you own it all then you are the only one that can change it... blaming others for your setback and challenges only takes the power for success away from you and gives it to someone or something else. Take responsibility for everything, good and bad, that happens to you and the success feels much better... you KNOW that it was all you, you made it happen, your work earned your success.

ITG #16 - Making A Difference
51m · Published
Welcome to Inspired to Greatness... the show all about spreading inspiration, motivation, and being great., I am your host, I hope you are having an amazing day, my friends! Today we are talking about MAKING A DIFFERENCE...!
"There are two types of people who will tell you that you cannot make a difference in this world: those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed." -- Ray Goforth

“It's the curiosity that drives me. It's making a difference in the world that prevents me from ever giving up.”
Deborah Meier
“Focus on your work. Do what you're great at. Don't compare yourself to others and or waste time criticizing the lives and work of others. Do what matters most to you and make a difference doing that.”
Germany Kent
"Unless you walk out into the unknown, the odds of making a profound difference in your life are pretty low."
Tom Peters
“We can choose to be affected by the world or we can choose to affect the world.” Heidi Wills
The best way to make a difference in this world is living your best life.... but why is no one living their best life? What do you WANT in life. Not just where you’d work or what you’d do. It’s no wonder no one is living their best life when so few people have DEFINED their best life. Go think about it... then define it.
* Where would you live?
* Where would you work?
* What would you drive?
* What would you do in your free time?
* How would your family life look?
* What COLOR would you pet be?
Get specific, then write it down... if you don’t write it down, it’s not real! The sooner you do this the easier it will be to get there... now, once you have the detailed vision for your best life: what are you willing to do to get there? You have a blueprint for the most perfect life you could want... what are you willing to do, how hard will you work, what obstacles can you over come by making a difference to get to the perfect life??!?
People may mock you... people may belittle your efforts or say your dreams are too big! But those people will NEVER make a difference... they are too scared to try or fail... or they are afraid to see YOU succeed when they won’t!
But stay the course... make a difference and build your dream... that’s how you will make a difference in this world. You will inspire your kids to love their dream. You will inspire your spouse, your friends, your family... you will inspire everyone you touch to make their dreams a reality... and imagine the difference that will make!!
The life you lead is your message to the world. Make sure it’s an inspiring message!

People may mock you... people may belittle your efforts or say your dreams are too big! But those people will NEVER make a difference... they are too scared to try or fail... or they are afraid to see YOU succeed when they won’t!
But stay the course... make a difference and build your dream... that’s how you will make a difference in this world. You will inspire your kids to love their dream. You will inspire your spouse, your friends, your family... you will inspire everyone you touch to make their dreams a reality... and imagine the difference that will make!!
The life you lead is your message to the world. Make sure it’s an inspiring message!

ITG #15 - Faith!
40m · Published
“Faith is taking the first step, even when you don’t see the whole staircase.” MLK Jr.
There are a lot of different kinds of faith. Faith in God or religion, faith in your friends and family, and faith in yourself. Some forms of faith are more important than others, but having and keeping your faith, especially during trying times is not only crucial but sometimes difficult.
Faith is critical to success in life and business… who would set out to build a business if they didn’t have faith that it would work out? Who would start anything if they didn’t think it would be successful.
“Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve. “ - Mary Kay Ash

Productivity Tip: Start your day with something hard!
Start off your day be killing off a difficult task… it will set a productive tone for the whole day.
I believe there are three keys to success. For me it is keeping my priorities in order: It's my faith and my family, and then the business. - Kathy Ireland
I want to be the very best competitor I can be. The Bible says, "Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom" (Ecclesiastes 9:10). - David Green CEO of Hobby Lobby
The world is full of people who want to play it safe, people who have tremendous potential but never use it. Somewhere deep inside them, they know that they could do more in life, be more, and have more -- if only they were willing to take a few risks. - George Foreman
Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens - JRR Tolkien

ITG - Never Settle!
11m · Published
Welcome to Inspired to Greatness... the show all about spreading inspiration, motivation, and being great!
“Don't ever settle for less than you deserve, because once you start to settle you always will.”
Don't rush and never settle. If it's meant to be, it will be.
If you don’t have the patience, self-control, or work ethic to wait for something better if you are too lazy or scared to wait on the opportunity you deserve, then you are settling and you are not going to live your best life. And once you settle for less, you are likely to continue settling and settling.
Never settle for less than you deserve. Demand the best, accept nothing less.
You have to set goals, know what you want, and work toward it. Never settle for less than what will make you happy and feed your passion… it’s like settling
What kind of message are you sending? Your children, family, friends… they all watch what you are doing, you are setting an example for the people around you and those who look up to you.
How you talk, work, dress, treat people, respond to stress, and how you SETTLE… all those things set an example for those watching. You OWE IT to your family, kids, and others besides YOURSELF to not settle.
What kind of lesson does it teach for your kids when you go to a miserable job that you hate, when you complain about work and how horrible it is, and you hate the workweek. What kind of future does that give your kids to look forward to… what message does that send your kids about work and career. How excited does that make them about working?
DO NOT SETTLE... you owe it to yourself and those you love!!!

ITG #14 - Leadership
1h 0m · Published
Welcome to Inspired to Greatness... the show all about spreading inspiration, motivation, and being great., I am your host, I hope you are having an amazing day, my friends! Today we are talking about... Leadership and HOW to be a leader!
If you want to be a leader then take a look at what motivates and inspires those around you and feed that. Learn how to focus on the positive and always be pushing toward the future. Empower people to be the best they can be... THAT is what it takes to be a great leader.
"There is a difference between being a leader and being a boss. Both are based on authority. A boss demands blind obedience; a leader earns his authority through understanding and trust." Klaus Balkenhol
"The best leader is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and the self-restraint to keep from meddling with them while they do it." Theodore Roosevelt
"Do you know that one of the great problems of our age is that we are governed by people who care more about feelings than they do about thoughts and ideas?" Margaret Thatcher
"Leaders think and talk about the solutions. Followers think and talk about the problems." Brian Tracy
"A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go, but ought to be." Rosalynn Carter (Leaders challenge and motivate us to do what we didn't know we could do)
Lead by inspiration, not intimidation. -Rebecca Aguilar
Don’t find fault, find a remedy. -Henry Ford
