TOSOL #68 Ending at Your New Beginning – Success Freaks 11 November

“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.”  ~Zig Ziglar~

“Goals are a means to an end, not the ultimate purpose of our lives.  They are simply a tool to concentrate our focus and move us in a direction.  The only reason we really pursue goals is to cause ourselves to expand and grow.  Achieving goals by themselves will never make us happy in the long term; it’s who you become, as you overcome the obstacles necessary to achieve your goals that can give you the deepest and most long-lasting sense of fulfillment.”  ~Anthony Robbins~

Tonight our “Podcast Awards Nominated, Success Freaky” Motivational Team of Mordant & McFall bring our 2012 adventure ride through “Double Your Income Doing What You Love” (by Raymond Aaron and Sue Lacher) to the final chapter.  We discover how much we’ve changed about ourselves, our lives, and what we’ve taught ourselves about goals, goal setting, and mentoring our way towards the success we seek.

TOSOL #67 - Greater Self Worth

TOSOL #67 – Greater Self Worth

Self-esteem (or self-worth), simply put, is how good we feel about ourselves and, believe it or not, it’s not something we’re born with.  People that surround us, and certain circumstances, can cause us to feel unworthy of praise, greatness, and even love.  Since studies have shown that 2 out of 3 people suffer from low self-esteem or self-worth, it’s easy to see why this problem came to mind for tonight’s topic.

In this episode, McFall and Guest Host LaLa Zigfreid tackle the subject of “Greater Self Worth.”  Together they discuss the early damage and messages we received (whether real or imagined), what it took to start the inner changes of self-healing, and where they are today…with a touch on how, and where, they still need to grow.  It’s an honest and open discussion that really fires up the chat room.

TOSOL #66 – So Loud You Burn Out

by

When you’re making those big important “Life” plans, you have to be careful not to pile so many things on your plate that you lose interest/focus…or “burn out.”  It’s important to devise ways to make the journey productive, but pleasant…busy, but not all consuming.  However, you must also make room for downtime, which can include spending time with family, friends, or loved ones.  The trick is to live out loud, but not “So Loud You Burn Out.”

Tonight our “Burnin’ the Candle at Both Ends” Motivational Show Hosts, Mordant & McFall, talk about their own Dream-Catching struggles and offer systems to help get through those times.

TOSOL #65 – The Nasty Habit of Good Addictions

by

Originally entitled “Habits vs. Addictions,” our “Addictive” Motivational co-hosts wanted to contrast the two.  Somewhere in there, as they always want to do, Mordant & McFall found different ways of looking at these lifelong friends & foes.  They further offer their personal experiences to help us decide if the addictions and/or habits we each have are positive or negative…and how to change things if we so choose

Famed psychologist Carl Jung said: “Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol or morphine or idealism.”

Aristotle said:  “Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.”

TOSOL #64 – Annual Backwards Goals – Success Freaks 10 October

by

“Where do you envision yourself at the end of the year?  What will you have achieved?  Who will you be?  How do you ensure your monthly goals line up with your vision for the year?”

Tonight our “Success Freaky” team, Mordant & McFall, take us through Chapter #10 of Raymond Aaron’s Double Your Income Doing What You Love: “Annual Backwards Goals.”  You will learn how to write your goals backwards, congratulate yourself for your successes ahead of time, and select and record you annual goals.

We hope you enjoy listening to the show as much as we enjoyed producing it for you.  Thank you for taking the time to listen.

TOSOL #63 – Who Flung Poo? (Other People’s Messes)

by

Every day you’re working on your affirmations.  You’re building your positive life as you continue on your journey to YOUR dream of success.  You’re making changes to be a better friend, a better person, a better YOU.  Yet, every day you come in contact with someone whose negativity threatens to infect your optimistic endeavors.  When that friend you haven’t seen for a while greets you with only the bad/negative parts of his/her life, how are you going to react?  When your family, friends, or co-workers dump their bad mood/problems on your doorstep, how are you going to respond?  How do you keep from getting sucked in by negative, “poor me,” Poo-Flinging messy attitudes of others and keep it from derailing your forward motion?  You alone have the ability to choose how you handle those situations.  So…what are you going to do?

Tonight our “Pooh-Flinging” Motivational duo, Mordant & McFall, discuss what to do in these situations and how to change the negative to positive in each of our lives. Utilizing affirmations, prayer or simply thinking happy thoughts, we can not only shield ourselves from other people’s negative moments (because, hopefully, they are only moments), we can also help others turn their negatives into positives.

TOSOL #62 – Making Choice Choices

by

No choice is a bad choice as long as it is your choice.  It is up to you to take responsibility for what you allow into your life.  It is up to you to teach people how you want to be treated.  It is up to you to make the “Choice Choices” and live the life you have always dreamed.  This about sums it up—choose to have a fabulous life.

You are responsible for your experiences and for what happens to you in your life.  With this realization comes the understanding that, since you are responsible, you can begin to affect change in your life.  If you don’t like the way things are going, you can do something about it.  That’s not only a good thing, it’s a great thing.

Tonight our “Choosey-Choosers-Choose-Choice-Choices, Yo” Motivational Mates discuss how to go about making the “Choice Choices” in life.

Each of us has to decide which is most important to us in our lives.  Under some circumstances, it means Dream vs. Family.  We need to be honest with ourselves, even if we make the hard choice of denying ourselves in order to fulfill our “obligations.”

TOSOL #61 – Birthday Boy Blues

by

Birthdays are fun, right?  Once a year we all get to celebrate the date of our birth.  We go out to dinner with friends, have a private party with someone special, or we celebrate with our family.  It’s a fun day that we look forward to all year.  The party, the balloons, the laughter, the gifts and the cake, people!

There are some, however, who simply are not interested in Birthdays or any of the hoopla surrounding them. They don’t want to celebrate or be reminded of anything Birthday related.

In tonight’s episode, Mordant leads McFall down a road of discovery to find out why McFall has such a hard time with Birthdays and everything they entail.  The journey takes our Late-Night Soul-Searching Motivational Team on a very interesting trip into issues regarding self-esteem, receiving-muscles and self-love.  This show resonated with many of our listeners and brought out emotions no one expected.

TOSOL #60 – AutoMagic Goals – Success Freaks 09 September

by

You don’t get what you want, you get what you are.

“When you record, with heart and emotion, what you really desire, then the Universe listens.”  That’s when the “Quantum Soup” begins to stir around you and you begin to make things happen (a.k.a. Manifesting).

Can you use the Law of Attraction to reach your own goals?  Do you believe it’s possible to, almost effortlessly, attain anything your heart desires?  Tonight our “AutoMagic” Motivational duo, Mordant & McFall, take us through Chapter 9, “Recording Goals So They Achieve Themselves Automagically” from “Double Your Income Doing What You Love,” and we learn how to tie all of the previous steps/chapters together to make things happen on our journey to the life we want.
