SF#177 – Down The Rabbit Hole

November 30, 2014 by Success Freaks

Should you stay safe and comfortable in your life – especially since everything is working great?  Or is it better to seize the adventure, mixing things up and initiating the changes you’ve been yearning to experience?  When not “rocking the boat” means allowing complacency and lethargy to consume the time it might take to become your own hero, it’s best to throw caution to the wind and swallow that damned Red Pill of Possibility, and jump Down the Rabbit Hole.

In this episode, Mordant & McFall poke, prod, & preach about what it means to take chances and live your life to the fullest.  Moving beyond the relative safety of your couch, step away from the television or book spouting other people’s creations and create something awesome of your own.  You only have time to lose and you’re letting that slip through your fingers already anyway.  Why not throw your life into a little turmoil and, quite possibly, become the star of your own story instead of watching/reading about the heroes in someone else’s?

SF #174 – Do Your Due Diligence and Excel

November 9, 2014 by Success Freaks

Working to excel in this life, do you do your due diligence?  Are you willing to put in the effort required now in order to make sure your business, goal, and/or relationship smoothly sails forward later?  If you are wanting things to grow/expand/explode and in a good way in your life, you might find you are going to have to put in some sweat equity early on to set things up to go that way.  And, that’s what this episode is about: doing your due diligence, those things you need to do, to excel in life.

Mordant discovers that by putting a day’s worth of effort into setting up several Excel spreadsheets, he can streamline calculations that would normally take him hours on his own.  In this episode of Success Freaks, both he and McFall discuss what it takes to set yourself up to succeed – both the struggles and pay off of.

SF #173 – Priorities: Relationships vs. Work vs. Goals

November 2, 2014 by Success Freaks

Having a hard time watching your priorities face off against one another?  Are you busy building a juggling act and yet you’re not an entertainer?  Does your relationship have to compete with your work and your goals for your attention?  Do you find that there’s not enough time in the day for not only what you have to do but what you want to do?  Sometimes the mere thought of everything on a to-do list will send people into a spin out of anxiety and depression – all the while knowing there’s not even enough time to waste on an panic attack.  How do successful people balance everything that needs doing with stuff they want to accomplish and a family life?

While out on an errant errand, Mordant crashes headlong into this very problem.  Listen in as the Level Up Guys shuck and jive, bob and weave through the rough rapids of a real life.  If you’d like to see how your Success Freaks handle the same problems with priorities you’re faced with everyday, balancing betwixt relationships, work, and goals, this is the show for you.

SF #169 – Fear of Success … #118 Revisited

October 3, 2014 by Success Freaks

Since Mordant is traveling from Minnesota to North Carolina, we’re revisiting SF #118 this week. We sincerely hope you enjoy it. 

Is fear of success a real thing? If so, why are people so afraid of this beneficial thing they keep saying that want out of life? So many people unknowingly sabotage themselves without realizing it and then wonder why they’re not succeeding.

Fear of Success means being afraid of the very thing you desire. Giving into that fear will keep you safely ensconced in that snuggly-safe bed you are making for yourself by not taking the steps necessary to live a bigger, badder, better, more life. Moving beyond this self-imposed mediocrity means giving up what you’re comfortable with. It means leaving your comfort zone and taking enough of a leap of faith to take a closer look at what you need to change in order to be successful.

SF #168 – The Rhythm of Change

September 28, 2014 by Success Freaks

Change happens!  You can either dig in your heels, hoping against hope that things will stay the same stale-sweet way they’ve always been – or you can get into the flow of things, growing and leveling up your life as you go.  The choice, as always, is yours.

This episode, Mordant & McFall entertain and edify you as they share what it means to “embrace The Rhythm of Change” via a variety of anecdotes, shifting points of view, and even comedic voices.  Nothing is safe, not even your favorite holidays.  Listen in as McFall gleefully rants about birthdays and Halloween while Mordant waxes funly philosophical in the face of such holiday-hating hi-jinx.

September 21, 2014 by Success Freaks

Bit by bit.  Step by Step.  Slowly you create Great Things from the every small endeavor you take on and see to fruition.  The trick to getting what you want out of life – Love, Money, a serious Sense of Accomplishment – is beginning.  You have to start somewhere and it’s usually with something Small that you nurture until it grows into something Great.

This episode of Success Freaks has Mordant & McFall discussing how, even in the midst of a crisis, you have to begin with small steps.  All Things Great and Small shows you that you Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff on your way to being Bigger, Badder, Better, More.  You just have to Breathe, Take a Step, and Begin.

Why?  Because Yes!

SF #162 – Positive Aggravation

August 17, 2014 by Success Freaks

Can there really be a silver lining when thing after thing after thing after thing doesn’t go your way?  What really is the benefit of that?  Sometimes we as people can be a little thick.  Sometimes we need Shakabuku: “a swift, spiritual kick to the head that alters your reality forever.”  Often, it is only those aggravating things that give us the impetus to pop out of that rut we’ve become oh-so comfortably numb in.

SF #161 – Perseverance Prevails

August 10, 2014 by Success Freaks

You’ve been working on a project…or chasing down a dream…or struggling with a relationship, and things are not going so well.  Seems like it’s time to quit wasting your blood, sweat, and tears and throw in the towel.  Or, is it?  What if success awaits, dancing teasingly, tauntingly beyond your grasp – testing your mettle and waiting to see if you are willing to tough out the rough spots.  Will you?  More than talent and skill, luck and magic, Perseverance Prevails.

SF #160 – Those Voices in your Head

August 3, 2014 by Success Freaks

“Sign, sign, everywhere a sign.…” ~Five Man Electrical Band~

What can you do when you have the chatter of differing opinions going off in your head?  Which should you listen to?  How can you tell which is right and which is wrong?  Are they signposts directing you this way or that?  And, what can you do when they are so loud you can’t discern the call of common sense?

Mordant & McFall volley back and forth about the ramifications of listening to one of the voices and making a choice – even when you’re not 100% sure it’s the best one.  Remember, if you’re not happy with the outcome, you can always go back and switch things out.  “It’s not broke until you can’t fix it.” ~Rhonni Rocks~ [Read more…]
