Coach John Daly - Coach To Expect Success - Podcasts

After a great Thanksgiving weekend, there were a few lessons that came out of this weekend that I wanted to share with you. I think it's always powerful to be able to reflect and pull the lessons that are all around us in order for us to improve ourselves in all areas of life.  These lessons came from my father-in-law, a friend of ours and a former coworker of my wife's.  Join me in seeing the lessons that are present for all of us and then actually being open to them.  These lessons probably are like things that you have been through too.  Whenever lessons present themselves we need to be in position to spot them first and then make the choice to pick up on the lessons they are leaving for us.   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:  @coachjoh

Another Daly Friday with Dr. Jeff Lip is here!!  Starting my day off early this morning with some great conversation with Dr. Jeff Lip, really got my day going in a fantastic direction.  This is a revisited topic from podcast #80 and this one probably has a ton more value since we have Jeff with us on our show. 10 Things That Require Zero Talent is a list that really is a great reminder for all of us as to how we can ramp up our game - this helps us to raise the bar so to speak in our own lives.  The more we look at things like these that we can improve, the better off we will be.   My challenge is to pick 3 off this list and begin to work on them, begin to improve them - right now!!  Then I will move onto another few and just keep looking to improve wherever I can.  I offer you that challenge 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://www.fac

What an amazing article I found on the importance of forgiveness - find it here:  https://www.success.com/4-ways-to-truly-forgive-and-forget/    It has some great reminders for myself on the skill of forgiveness and the importance that it has on our overall health and well being.   Remember, there are studies after studies on this topic that proves in so many different ways the benefits of forgiving.  Not only is it in our own best interest to forgive others but the same goes with ourselves too.  It's not about making others feel better about what they did or didn't do - the key is that it lightens our own burden of anger & resentment that actually does more damage to ourselves than the other person.  I guess this is another example of how we learn with age some important lessons in life.  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.

Had an awesome conversation with a former student of mine & proud Spartan - Mr. Abel Sanchez.   A very uplifting and enjoyable talk we had today which centered on a few things that are important in life.  One is relationships. Abel has that as a main focus point in his life and it was easy to see way back when he was a freshman in high school.  He shares stories and insights with other Leadership & Life connections.  Another was his outstanding positive attitude.  So many examples of that for all of us to learn from.  Sit back and enjoy our talk.  If you want to reach out to him - find him on Twitter:  @doity_sanchez   and on Instagram:  @abelsancheziii   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://

Love these moments with Dr. Jeff Lip.  Today's conversation centers along the fact that Jeff has changed jobs - and has come back to Lake Shore High School as one of our counselors.  The journey - the emotions - the decisions - the relationships - all of it that he has gone through, he shares a little bit with us today.  One of the best conversations we have had for sure with so many valuable lessons.  Please check out Jeff at www.jefflip.com - his blogs are getting read more and more by so many people and his podcasts are being downloaded at an unbelievable pace.  The man is the definition of what a difference maker is all about.  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.co

Here are a few ideas on how to spend your weekend - and they are surrounded around gratitude.  Big shout out to Gary Vee for hitting this subject hard all the time.  It all starts for being grateful for what we have.  Sit back and enjoy this quick hitting podcast on a few things that you can start reflecting on this weekend.   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 worked on – especially my blog page where I am back to blogging now.    

This has been something that has kept popping up in my head as of late - the Power of Reflection.  What a difference it can make when you sit back and look back, look around at all the things going on in our lives that we not only can be grateful for, but also be reminded as to how far we have come in our lives.  It helps us to take it easy on ourselves a little bit so we don't beat ourselves up so much.  It helps us to recognize all the great relationships, both past and present that we can be grateful for.  Try it and I bet you walk away stronger and feeling better about yourself.  Don't spend time reflecting on the bone-head moves and how horrible you are - NO WAY!  Reflect on surviving the bone-head moves and learning from them, becoming better from them, etc.  That's the key - tie in gratitude with the reflections.  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

Needed another reminder here - and coming from two guys that I have the utmost respect for - John Maxwell writing an article about John Wooden.  I wanted to share one main part of the article, so this is all about John Wooden's "Creed Of Life".  Some fantastic reminders that I needed to think about and remind you a little about them too.   Sit back and enjoy this session and I'll be finishing this article with you sometime soon on another 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:  @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 worked on – especially my blog page

A great first conversation with a good friend & co-worker of mine, Mr. Jeff West.  Jeff is a long time Band Teacher / Director with the last 17 years of his career working with me at Lake Shore High School.  Jeff is a good guy that enjoys music, teaching kids, and his newest endeavor is mixing in technology with education.  He shares briefly with us about his new podcast called "Old Dog, New Tech" - you can find his podcast here:  https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/old-dog-new-tech    Jeff and I have some fun in this first conversation - which I hope there will be more of for sure.  He's a guy that has some great ideas on education and helping students learn more and he is also looking to help teachers do more in the world of technology in their classrooms.  Sit back and enjoy this first conversation with Jeff and look for more conversations with him in upcoming shows.  You can find out more about Jeff, his blogs, other projects and contact him here on his website:  https://sites.google.com/v

Got to thinking about this topic as we got ready for a Leadership session with some of our basketball players this past Monday.   We talked about being extraordinary doesn't just happen - there is a lot of conscious thought going into it.  We also talked about how this is just not for basketball, but for life!  It comes down to the fact that if you want to do more - BE MORE!   Being extraordinary starts with ourselves for sure.  It takes a little something every day in order to become "not ordinary."  Join me in this topic for today's show.  There will be more coming from this topic soon.   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

Again - more podcasts that I'm digesting and taking in and I had to share this info to you about not letting the world tell you that you can only do 1 thing only.  That you have to have only 1 title of what you do and who you are.   "Gar V" shared one of his many messages full of passion and energy and a few things stuck with me that I share with you today - passion is another thing to always work on my friends.   Check this out & share it with others if you can.   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 worked on – espec

One of the many things I enjoy about being a teacher is really how often I get to become a student.  It usually happens from a student of mine taking on the role of teaching me something that not only I needed to learn, but they don't even know they are doing it.   Today was a case again - where one of my seniors simply did one of her assignments - writing a blog after listening to a podcast where Brian Buffini interviewed Les Brown.  Check it out HERE.   The lessons she picked up from listening to this podcast were ones that I needed to hear... I've heard them before since I listened to the same podcast, in fact a couple of times.  The difference was that it was from her point of view - which helped me to think differently compared to when I listened to them on my own.  That's the power of sharing stories, ideas, insights, etc.  We get to hear things from a different viewpoint and it helps us to learn new and different lessons.  That's powerful stuff my friends.   Thanks for listening.  P

Reflecting is something I'm doing more and more of - and of course it's tied in Gratitude too. Now, not all the time is this the case, but for the most part I do end back at it before too long.

So many times we lose focus on things that we need to do in our lives - having control of our minds, having that mental toughness is something we always need to be reminded of. There is so much in the world that tries to get in our way, that tries to dictate to us how we should live. Sometimes there is fear, anger, sadness, disappointment in life but we cannot let those things be our major focus. There are so many great & inspirational things that we can focus on. Here are just a few thoughts about some of them. Thanks for listening.

Love him or hate him - the lessons that Tiger Woods taught us all this past weekend as he won the PGA Tour Championship, are lessons we should listen to. The biggest for me - his attitude of gratitude. We really don't know what we have in our lives until it's gone - whether we lose it or it's taken from us. Like so many people said after his win, they got emotional watching it (I will be honest, I did too). Many mentioned that there were plenty of peopl;e that really don't follow golf, but they tuned into watch Tiger Woods. The crowds there were nothing like I ever saw. Join me in learning a few lessons from this great game. And oh yea.... Go USA - I hope we win the Ryder Cup over in Paris and bring it back home!! Thanks for listening.

There was many things that have come into play for this show today - namely a reminder about all of the great people that are in and around my life. When I try and focus on living my best life, I am reminded that there are so many people helping me to do that. It also is a reminder for me to be that person for others. Good stuff the last few days that I am sharing in this one. Great things coming too... with the Ryder Cup being played in Paris soon - that is my favorite sporting event by far!

Hearing a lot lately about the world getting us all down. Hope is taking a hit - studies & surveys out there saying how much negativity, hatred, depression, anxiety, etc. is out there with so many people. I've seen it, heck, I've felt it plenty of times. But my message is that we don't have to jump into that pool and swim around the stuff. We all have the opportunity to do things in our lives to make a difference with all of that stuff. Two podcasts recently really got me going on this. John O'Leary - http://johnolearyinspires.com/2018/09/live-inspired-podcast-ep-99-adam-cayton-holland/ and Brian Buffini: https://www.thebrianbuffinishow.com/the-third-option-an-interview-with-pastor-miles-mcpherson-119/ Find a way to listen to both of these and see what you can do to not only make things better for yourself but for others too
