This week our dynamic duo was faced with learning lessons on how to better Help Others Be Awesome. In true Success-Freaks style, Mordant & McFall remain transparent, sharing their thoughts and feelings on “being schooled” about their own mission statement. Listen in and discover why Helping Others Be Awesome might not be the first choice most people decide on—especially when it appears as if the Universe is conspiring to take advantage of you or, even worse, separate a fool from his hard-earned money.

Birth Hurts
Pain and stress always come before the new life
I am personally going through some transitions this year that are scary and Awesome at the same time. My wife is pregnant with our fourth child so you will be getting many a birthing metaphor in this article. My company Success Freaks has taken my life to new levels over and over again already this year. I realized somewhere in the process that 2013 is the year in which the way my finances comes to me changes. And to be honest, I don’t know what that means. I see all the signs that a major life change is coming and that is what I am going to share with you.
Success Freaks #92 – Get The Foo Out! – Guest Starring Afua Richardson
High energy and hi-jinx blast through the Bear’s Den Studio in Monticello, Georgia when Mordant returns from his six-month (or so) sabbatical. Bursting onto the Success Freaks scene for the first time is comic-book artist, singer, songwriter, beat-box mouth magician—the self-proclaimed “Jane of all Trades,” Afua Richardson.Over the course of the next hour, Afua, aka “Dr. Foo,” takes the show from comedic to introspective via her laughter, stories, and Michael Winslow-esque mouth noises.
Sharing a little of her family history and the rough spots she’s been through, even lately, Afua shows that anything is possible for those willing to take on the tough breaks and use them to mold your character and shape your reality for the better.

Success Via Adversity
I was barely out of my teens over twenty years ago when I went to the New and Gauley Rivers in West Virginia to train to be a whitewater rafting guide. Women were really just breaking into the scene so the entire area was heavily dominated by men. This in itself wasn’t the least bit concerning since my desire to guide had nothing at all to do with the male to female ratio. What was concerning, as I soon came to find out, was the blatant sexism displayed by some male guides, trainers, and company owners. I selected one company out of a dozen to train with and throughout most of a year with them I endured being talked down to, sardonic attitudes, and never-ending attempts to make me fail. I was repeatedly put into situations to deliberately push me past my physical and psychological limits in the hopes that I would just give up; many trainees did, after all. This kind of adversity is what I faced spring, summer, and fall while training with “Company A”. But let me tell you the outcome.
Success Freaks #91 – Becoming The Triple Threat
A person who is talented or skilled in three different areas is regarded as a ‘‘triple threat’. If you can act, sing and dance, you would be a ‘triple threat’. There are also man examples of talented athletes who pose a triple threat in the sports arena.
What is your personal “triple threat”?
Success Freaks #90 – Reinventing Awesome w/Guest Star Allison Williams
Have you reached a point where the job you’re really good at has become less of a challenge? Has something else come along to light your creativity in a passionate way that is very different from the path you’re currently on? If it meant totally reinventing yourself for this new “passion”, could you…would you?
Tonight our “William Shatner Way” Comedic Motivational Show hosts, Mordant & McFall lead us on a path to just that –“Reinventing Awesome”.
Resistance is Futile
The burn you feel is from you fighting the process.
“No Pain, No Gain” is the biggest load of overused horse hockey I have ever heard. Do you know how many successes in my life people have tried to invalidate because they came easy to me? I bet in your life you have experienced some of these examples; “That was too easy so something is wrong,” or “If you have no problems then you are doing it right.” Shut up. Yeah, I mean you. I’m looking right at the inner voice that is repeating this crap to you, keeping you from owning your success. I am here as the “Dark Side of Positive” to destroy some of this lie that keeps you from being successful. And trust me – resistance is futile.

Let’s Try For Goal Number Three
Hi guys! Here I sit…at my computer…trying to write my third installment of “My Three Goals.” I’m having a wee bit of trouble. My third Goal is going to be a tough one and it has everything to do with “Trust.”
As a young girl growing up in the Deep South during the 60’s, my life was full of wonder. I lived on the most magical street a growing mind could ever hope for. Our house was right across the street from the town baseball field where my brother played his Little League games. I would sit in the stands eating boiled peanuts from a small paper bag, laughing with my friends and cheering my brother on. Although, I think I did more boiled peanut eating than cheering…if we’re going to be honest. The city’s only Recreation Center was next to the ball field. During the day and on weekends you could find my brother and me playing board games with other kids in the area. My brother and his friends played baseball, basketball and even attempted tennis at the courts behind the rec center. At night, especially on the weekends, the local high school students would hold dances there. It was a large place with glass from floor to ceiling on our side of the building. On dance nights, you could find us sitting on the ground outside right beside where the band was playing and just dancing away. The kids even took to bringing us in to be a part of the party. Sounds like a child’s dream come true. Well, it was…for me, but there’s more.
