Coach John Daly - Coach To Expect Success - Podcasts

Amazing timing this weekend.  I got a message Sunday from John O'Leary that said - "Arrest the thief of despair.  It may not be easy, but there is always a reason for hope in front of you."   When that message came through, it couldn't of been at a better time.   There are so many times when we are given information when we need it the most.   This message, along with his recent podcast where he interviewed Country singer Walker Hayes, really got me inspired to share this message with you today.  Check out this powerful podcast from John O'Leary here:   http://johnolearyinspires.com/2019/05/country-music-star-walker-hayes-craig-146/    There have been so many lessons I have gotten from this podcast (and all of his podcasts actually).  Sit back and enjoy this rather emotional show.  Lot's of real thoughts that I think will connect to a lot of people.    Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes

Heard a great podcast recently from my friend Sam Crowley and he talked about Nothing Changes if Nothing Changes.   Check out his show here:  http://everydayissaturday.com/nothing-changes-if-nothing-changes/    I got a few ideas to share from what I got from listening to it.  Sit back and enjoy some thoughts here.  I need to be in my own corner, be my own cheerleader and stop being my own worst critic.   So many of us do this to ourselves and it takes a shift in our mindset to make the necessary changes in order for real changes to take place.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top 26 Book list

What a special treat for you the listener but it was a fantastic time for me sitting down with the one and only Mackenzie Nemitz - a proud Lake Shore High School Alumni along with current member of the red hot Michigan Wolverines Women's softball team.  Join me for a fantastic conversation with her about the ups and downs of life - softball and the great relationships she has made along her journey.  So many lessons here about overcoming things in life - not just the knee injury she had during her sophomore year.  It was so inspiring for me to sit down with her and to learn a few lessons myself.  She's a delightful young lady who is going places in life.  I am blessed and highly favored to call her a friend now and I'm so happy and grateful she found a little bit of time to sit down with me here today.  Please make sure you keep tabs on her and her awesome U of M teammates as the finish up the season and head into the Big 10 Playoffs and hopefully a long trip to the NCAA College World Series.

Had a great time talking with a neighbor, friend, fellow teacher, fellow basketball coach - Angela Houghton.    Angela is just starting out with her new idea Mom Block Party.  A community of moms looking to connect with the so called good, bad and the ugly of being a mom.  She is so excited about this new idea of hers and she knows there are plenty of moms out there that have stories to share and plenty of moms out there that need to listen to some stories to gain some insight and help on things that moms would understand.    Sit back and enjoy this conversation with Angela and I know it won't be the last.  You can get in touch with Angela on Instagram @momblockparty or her email:  momblockparty@gmail.com     Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @

Great lessons from a very memorable trip to The Masters - part 3 of 3 where I'm wrapping up some fantastic lessons.  One of the biggest enjoyable moments was the no cell phone policy.  We had to look at each other and actually talk to each other, and it was really cool.  Like a trip back in time and I must say, I liked it.  Talking and meeting some new people was fun and educational.  I need to figure out how to do it more often.  Try it some time, you might like it.  Join me here for a couple of other lessons -  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top 26 Book list too.  Other things there on

Wow... what a trip!  Another bucket list item crossed off and I really thought this one may never happen.  I will explain a whole bunch of things regarding our trip down to Georgia and attending Monday's practice round at The Masters golf tournament.  It's funny, when people have asked me about this trip and how was it - I tell them that it was life-changing.  They look at me, kind of chuckle a little bit and say really, how so?  Many of the reasons that I will be sharing with you in the next couple of podcasts will explain in detail on how it was really life-changing for me.   So, sit back and enjoy the lessons I found.  Even if you don't life golf, or sports for that matter, I think you will find some useful nuggets here.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter:  @coachtosucces

Super topic that I needed to reflect upon for myself but also get out there for you to check out too.  We all make excuses - some of us do it better than others.  I'm one that has always had them, even if I make them just to myself - which I have.  I am working hard to get rid of them so that I can move forward in my life - I hope you want to do the same too.  The article that I referenced is here:   https://www.success.com/15-motivational-quotes-to-stop-making-excuses/?fbclid=IwAR13CAlDxusxQQ-s7OPkZzQ8_LS5911jLXUAoFW0V4868kNw_saHXL3YQ6g     I did not go over all 15 of the quotes, so you can check out all the quotes to see if any connect with you better than others.  I know I need to continue working on having less excuses in my life, that's for sure.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Tw

Very powerful and thought-provoking topic here that I found on this article:  https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/study-reveals-5-biggest-regrets-people-have-before-die-iwuoha/    It's a topic that I've heard about before.  The same topic that I've seen & heard about others go through too.  I've been more thinking about this topic too lately.  As it's one of the many common themes in my Principles of Leadership class.  We have had two deaths lately - one of a distant relative and a friend - both passed away this past week.  Quite honestly this is on topic that is really coming into play for me to help get me going with some changes I know I have to make.  This is one topic that I know everyone has to deal with.  As always, I'm interested to hear your thoughts & ideas about this one and any of my shows.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services where you find this show.  F

Expect less."  Simple yet, so powerful.  Great reminders that can easily be focused on.  I love this stuff anytime, but especially at the start of a week.  It gets me going in a great direction.  Hope it does the same for you too.   Check it out - sit back and enjoy this and I hope there is something here that makes a difference for you, whenever you listen to this show.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjo

Watching some great girls basketball today with the Michigan High School Division 1 Title game - Saginaw Heritage and Southfield A & T.  Watching the emotion, energy, focus, teamwork, etc., going on, got me thinking about a few success principles.  This article that I found - check it out here:  https://www.success.com/8-traits-you-need-to-be-successful-your-iq-isnt-one-of-them/?fbclid=IwAR3pOkyGrUlG7H6HR4koQGYmbsNbeafwb3MmDkkk_NBZQgboD00pVYNfYjQ    So many of these traits in the article are showing up in this game today.  One biggie I brought up today was that of Self-Regulation, keeping your emotions in check.  That was seen in todays game that I was watching and it happens in life all the time.  Sit back and enjoy the connection that I found with girls high school basketball & these success principles.  Not a surprise that Saginaw Heritage wins 55-40.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services

This morning one of the first things I saw online was this quote:  "I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions." —Stephen R. Covey    It got me thinking about being in control of my choices.   It helped on my drive in that I listened to a little bit of a podcast, but mainly since I drove in some of my ride in silence, I was able to reflect in peace and come up with some connections to this.   Sit back and enjoy some thoughts and ideas connected to this quote.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top 26 Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being wo

Our basketball season came to a shocking end when we lost in the first game of the state tournament last week.  But I was reminded about a BIG difference maker in my life from where we played at.  Districts were held at L'Anse Creuse High School - North and in the commons area upon entering for that game, I was reminded about Mr. Tom Denewith.  He was a long-time principal there at that school and even though I was not a student there, our paths crossed thanks to my  mother-in-law and my wife. This man was a HUGE difference maker in my career as an educator.  Sit back and enjoy the story of how this man affected me and countless others with his professionalism, his great attitude and his difference-making mindset.   The key is to thank those people in our lives and to also be that for someone else too.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https:

Hey there - it's me!  Hope you have not forgotten me.  It's been about 10 days... seems longer in some ways, and not as long in other ways.  I wanted to get back on track and to let you (and myself) know that I'm not giving up.  Not on the podcasts, or my other dreams that I have in my heart & my head.  So many distractions have been happening and I know that I must do something about them.  I need to come up with some time shifts in order to make changes that I have to make.  I wanted to remind you that maybe you too have some things that you don't want to give up on.  Some things that are close to your heart that you know you just can't quit on yourself and others.  I'm to let you know that you are not alone.  Sit back and enjoy this show and maybe it will help you think about some things that you need to improve upon, so you don't give up on things or people in your life.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, al
