Helping Others be Awesome
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”?

Social Media outlets like Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ have been instrumental in people reaching out and touching the world. However, these amazing connectors, these awesome uniters (which may or may not be a word) can also act like buffers, causing people to keep in touch more via social media than through face-to-face “real conversations.”
Is there a problem here?
Are we losing touch with humanity by constantly staying in touch digitally?
In this episode of Success Freaks, our “More Than Just Facebook Friends” Comedic Motivational show hosts, Mordant & McFall, bring up the subject of the life we all lead “On Beyond Facebook.”
This is not to say that Social Media as a whole is bad. Obviously, a lot of good comes from Social Media. Friendships are formed, ideas are birthed and come to fruition, the voice of the people in politics—not just ours, but all over the world—is finally being heard. However, we need to take things further. On Beyond the buffer of Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Google+, etc. Take these friendships we’ve formed, this social interaction we are enjoying, to another level. Let’s not, in using our superpower of reaching out and touching the world, forget our basic need for physical human contact.

“We have been given talents, and we complain about our faults. We make progress, and we remain cynical. We have breakthroughs, and we continue to be bitter. OK, maybe it’s just me.” ~Doug Grady, The Ripple Effect, pg. 124~
Do you ever see opportunity…opportunity you’ve been waiting to arrive…it’s finally at your doorstep…knocking. Knocking. Knocking. And yet you find you’re dragging your feet. Why?
Tonight our “Carpe Vita” Comedic Motivational hosts, Mordant & McFall, discuss the steps that are necessary to “Own Your Life.” We all have a lot of opportunities coming our way…and that’s great, but we must be proactive and stop being passive-aggressive. Don’t let other people or circumstances dictate what happens in your life. Grab hold and get a firm grip on your own life to take it in the direction YOU choose. Take charge of your own ship and steer it to where YOU want to go. Even if you have to “baby-step” your way through things, just do it! Make that commitment and Just. Do. It.
“If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.” ~Geddy Lee~

TOSOL #72 – Venturing Through Undiscovered Country
Venturing Through Undiscovered Country is about moving forward, even though all you have is the destination in mind. You kind of know where you’d like to go, but…
1) You’re not sure how to get there
2) You don’t know quite what it’s going to look like once you arrive
Tonight our “Trail-Blazing” Motivational guides, Mordant & McFall, share how planning their Success Freaks Motivational Conference for June 2013 in the Atlanta, GA area has slammed everyone on the SF team right to the razor-sharp edge of their comfort zones. Join us as we explore what causes us to hesitate when striving to take that first big step into the unknown, how we summon the courage to commit to move forward, and what it feels like after a fear has been conquered.
“Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson~
The thing is…decide what you want to do and do it. Take that not-so-blind Leap of Faith and venture forth into that Undiscovered Country.
1) Blaze Trails where ‘ere you go—for yourself and others
2) Find a Native Guide or three to help you along the way
3) But, ultimately, get off your comfortably-numb butt and do something with your life
4) We dare you!!!
5) If we can do this, you can do this. Period
“After decades of research into how the human brain works, scientists now know that for our brains to figure out how to get what we want, we must first decide what we want. Once we lock-in our desires, our mind and the universe can step in to help make our dreams a reality.” ~Jack Canfield~
