Being relentless is about more than having talent or connections. It’s about stopping at nothing to get what you want.

A person can have all the talent in the world and do nothing with it. When things go wrong, they never move past obstacles and excuses.

If you’re relentless, you’re unstoppable. You inspire others and know that success isn’t about how you think, but what you do. Nothing holds you back and there is no small talk. You make a simple choice every day to go all out.

In this episode, you’ll discover how to become relentless in life and let nothing stop you.

Show Highlights Include:

• How to achieve the impossible and fulfill your life’s purpose like Napoleon Hill. ([1:45])
• Why you don’t need talent and passion to get out of your comfort zone and do big things.  ([3:13])

Being loyal has a bad rep these days. Between bad relationships and bosses, people are more loyal to themselves. And it has led people into having a “me” mindset instead of a “we” mindset.

In this episode, you’ll discover why loyalty makes you a more impactful and influential person today.

Show Highlights Include:

• Why having ‘San Francisco Giants’ loyalty brings more meaning and purpose into the world today. ([0:42])

Do you ever remember someone telling you to “give it some thought” or “think things through?” That’s because critical thinking leads to better decisions.

And if you never make time to think, you’ll always depend on snap judgments and reactions. A cluttered brain makes decisions with more stress and less time. 

When you give yourself time to think, you draw connections you’ve never noticed before. Your perspective changes and you feel focused. When you make better decisions, you live a better life.

In this episode, you’ll discover why critical thinking leads to your most joyous life yet.

Show Highlights Include:

When everything goes wrong in life, it’s easy to think about throwing in the towel. The obstacles seem too great and it feels like everyone is against you. 

But every successful person has ups and downs. The difference is whether you stand (or let it tear you down).

With everything happening in the world, mental health is on the brink of a disaster. You want to ‘stay informed’ but end up anxious and afraid every time you turn on the TV. 

Bad news breaks down the most uplifting spirits. It traumatizes the mind and turns everything else toxic (even if you don’t realize it).

Having a safe space is about more than stepping out of the world for a moment. It makes you happier, feel more at peace, and ready to take on the rest of the day. 

In this episode, you’ll learn how to tune out the notifications and news for a soul-enriching safe space.

Having friends is a blast. You enjoy the good times and feel loved. You might even think you have a lot of them. 

And then life goes south… You might need a helping hand or someone to talk to. Those “friends” are nowhere near. They leave at the drop of a dime and you’ve got no support. 

Having true friends is about more than the good times. If you only focus on your friends in the good, you’ll never have people around for the bad.

• Why having a ‘Haywood’ friendship gets you through your most difficult times. ([6:30])
• The perspective of true friendship from a funeral home. ([9:46])
