Team Beachbody is the ultimate relational marketing company. Building this business takes time and the willingness to learn, because they don’t teach this stuff in school. Thankfully, there are a lot of great mentors out there that you can learn from. One of my favorites is Jim Rohn. I recently re-listened to his audio, Building… [Continue Reading]
The Balancing Act – Making it All Work
In June of 2012 Monica and I had the honor of speaking to a group of people at the Team Beachbody Coaches Summit. It was a great experience. We talked about how to make everything fit together.

Connect With People to Win
This is the story of three waves I caught while surfing yesterday. Huh? Stick with me here. Waves are like people…trust me here. The first wave looked great. It had all the traits of a fun ride. As soon as I caught it, it closed out and drilled me. Disappointment ensued. The second wave didn’t… [Continue Reading]
Time is The Only Commodity That Matters

Time: : the measured or measurable period during which an action, process, or condition exists or continues. We all have a finite amount of time on this earth. It’s like any commodity. Once you use it, you don’t get it back. You truly cannot recycle wasted time. Nor can you recycle time well spent. It’s… [Continue Reading]

Are you Leading, or Just Managing?

I’m reading a very good book right now by Jeb Blount. It’s called People Follow You: The Real Secret to What Matters Most in Leadership.

So, if you are wondering… [Continue Reading]
Do Scary Things That Don’t Kill You
Another quick video from the Tonyism’s Series. Today’s thought is “Do Scary Things That Don’t Kill You”. After a spirited boxing match with the Pacific Ocean where I was definitely scared, I thought this was a good topic for today. It’s really not about taking your life into your hands. It’s really just about getting… [Continue Reading]
Milestones
Life is filled with milestones. They are the markers that define us. Moments in time. Facts really. Nothing more than events. Yet, as humans, we attach emotions to them. Sometimes those emotions are pleasant and sometimes they are not, but every milestone in my life has an emotion attached to it. Last week we were… [Continue Reading]
My Life With Dolphins

I don’t often wax poetic or get off track with the usual fitness/nutrition message here, but today I’m going to go ahead and do that. I’m going to tell you a story. It’s the story of my life, or at least a sliver of it. I don’t tell the story to brag. Quite the opposite. … [Continue Reading]
