WOW - what a great time spent with St. Clair Shores native, Shawn Szydlowski - a graduate of Lake Shore High School. Shawn shares some great stories, insights and lessons about chasing after his goals and dreams of playing professional hockey. I really appreciated Shawn taking some time out of his day to sit down with me for this interview. So many valuable lessons that he brings out in our visit today. We had some great conversations - both off and on the show - and I am pulling for this "kid" to reach every goal and dream that he has for himself. He carries himself so well and is so caring for others - especially kids. Some great charities he's a part of that help kids - It was awesome to hear about and again, like I told him - I'm so proud of him! You can connect with Shawn on both Twitter & Instagram: @szydlowski19 Thanks for listening.

More lessons from our recent little get-away to Traverse City, Michigan. These lessons came from eating out and visiting a place that our family stayed at for years. Eating a great breakfast at a classic place called Sparky's Diner - http://m.sparkysdinertc.com/#2513 Great music and great breakfasts - along with a valuable lesson just watching people when the song by Bob Dylan -" Knock, knock, knocking on Heaven's Door" came on. Amazing clarity came to me about how fast time is going by - for me, you, all of us. Then our visit to the North Shore Inn - http://www.northshoreinn.net/ A place that we stayed at for about 18 years with our family and my in-laws too - fantastic visit there to watch another sunset and both my wife and I were treated to some emotional and fantastic memories of just being there again. I hope you enjoyed this episode on some things that mean a lot to me. Thanks for listening. Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave

It's always great to get away on a vacation to places we enjoy. My wife and I really enjoy going up North here in Michigan - the Traverse City area to be specific. They have so many wineries that we enjoy going to and many of them we are visiting for the first time. Three of them I mentioned today and the lessons that each of them brought. First was a young man named Benjamin at the Laurentide Winery - https://laurentidewinery.com/index.asp A young man that grew up in the area and stayed to work in an area that he is passionite about. He had great enthusiasm and did a great job with the customers that he was helping. He was a very personable young man. Another one that we stopped at was the Verterra Winery - https://www.verterrawinery.com/ This is where we had a great visit with Matt. A very down to earth & personable former teacher that is now working on his second career. Fantastic converstation with Matt and many lessons learned from him too on looking ahead to new adventures.

There are always lessons to be found in everyday life. Remember that success always leaves clues, we just have to be ready to pick up those clues. Most of them can be found just by watching & listening. The lessons from a gas station attendant - his name is Paul - and I have watched and listened to him for years, I've even talked to him a few times. He is such a nice guy and the way he treats others is amazing! Every time I get gas for our cars at our local Costco - I always hope he's working. There are lessons every day from this guy and how he interacts with people. Once again, I need to learn from him so that I can be a better version of me. We all need to be better versions of ourselves. Thanks for listening.

This is a personal one for me and I hope it is for you too. These two podcasts spoke right to my heart and like many stories before (through other podcasts, books, videos, movies, articles, blog posts, etc.) I keep getting reminded about working harder, becoming better, doing more, helping others more, etc. I don't want to just look to improve because of a sad & tragic story! I NEED to look to do more & get better each and every day without having these stories to remind me. Both podcasts (and many others) are from John O'Leary. Check out the first one here: http://johnolearyinspires.com/2018/07/live-inspired-podcast-s9-ep-90-apollo-13-commander-jim-lovell/ A great interview with one of the first men in space - a guy who came from having not much at all to being on top of the world. A great story of overcoming, dreaming, hard work, believing in yourself - so many great lessons. The second one is here: http://johnolearyinspires.com/2018/07/live-inspired-podcast-s9-ep-89-the-m

Amazing discussion today with 2 very good friends of mine - Mr. Todd Stevens and Dr. Jeff Lip.

With the 2018 Open Championship being played at Carnoustie in Scotland, it is bringing up an important history lessons that happened in 1999. Jan van de Velde from France was a big part of that memory / lesson with his epic collapse in the final round of this tournament. Check out this video on exactly how things went down 19 years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV8Qj91T3o0 It is so intriguing to watch and learn how he responded to his loss. The lessons are so valuable. Summer time also is when there Wimbledon tennis - a fantastic & historical tournament with players in it from so many different countries. This summer is also an every 4 year tradition of the World Cup Soccer tournament - with again, more great lessons & the kind of drama that I really love. Just think - even if you don't like these sports or any sport for that matter - the lessons can still be used for all of life. If you were to work as hard like so many of these athletes do; on things that you want to do, thi

Holy Cow! Exactly one year ago today, I started this podcast show. Not only did it go by fast, but in this past year , there is so much that I have learned. Besides the lessons learned that I talk about today - it's the relationships that I have been blessed to have come around in my life due to this past year- those are so valuable to me. Thanks to you too... for listening to me. I am truly humbled for you spending your time listening and hopefully learning a few things from me too.

Walking - we know it's good for us, but how about how great it is for our relationships too? Good stuff here in this article that I came across - check it out: http://www.success.com/article/8-reasons-why-walks-are-good-for-relationships?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=Post So many valuable points for young and old to see how important it is for all of us to get out there in some form of movement. As I look back on this first year of podcasting- I am so grateful for all that I have learned, great people I've talked to and how much I love doing this. :-)

Summer is such a great time of year for many reasons. One is to try and do things to take control of your life. We all know life can seem to get out of control at times and we all need a few tips on how to try and do that. Dr. Jeff Lip stops by for another one of his tremendous chats on another Daly Friday episode of this podcast. The time that Jeff and I spend together really does go by super-fast and I always walk away feeling better about myself than before. We only spoke about a small handful of the points from this article: http://www.success.com/article/30-tips-to-take-control-of-your-life-now and I want to take another podcast soon to talk about a few others from this list. Some great reminders for all of us. Let's chat about these points - or any of my other podcasts that you have something to share with me or a question to ask. Find me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/ on Twitter: @coachtosuccess and on Instagram at: @coachjohndaly You can also hea

Great weekend with a quick trip back to western New York with my parents and my son for a little family reunion. So many laughs, great stories, fantastic memories, and some great sights seen all tied into our family. I think it's so crucial for all of us to find some time - this summer or really any time... that we can spend it with family. Especially older family members that we need to talk with and listen to, along with learning from. Once those older family members are gone - so too are all the stories, lessons, memories, etc., unless we get them shared. I've heard it so many times - it is so crucial to always remember where you came from. Please understand that where you are today - a lot of it came from the sacrifices and choices made by those that came before you. Would love to hear some stories about family reunion times, family tree stories too. It's all important to find out - don't keep putting off the opportunities you have with family and friends.

Just a fantastic discussion here with Dr. Jeff Lip about a podcast from John O'Leary and his interview with Mel Robbins - found here: http://johnolearyinspires.com/2018/06/live-inspired-podcast-s8-ep-87-mel-robbins-the-5-second-rule/ about her book and concept about The 5 Second Rule. It's a must listen to for sure as we have both personally connected to this concept after listening to this podcast.

This is just such a simple reminder - things that are good for us, good for others... and really good for the world.

Very interesting day – some good stuff that came my way today. First of all, I was listening to my buddy Sam Crowley’s podcast (Everydayissaturday.com) and he reminded me about “where focus goes, energy flows.” This is something that I needed to hear today. Lot’s of discussion in our family recently on things dealing with time and money. Normally I tend to lean towards the same negative and fearful responses I’ve always seem to have about these topics… but not today. This different mindset about having my focus looking towards new opportunities and the positive changes – it’s starting to make a difference. John O’Leary’s podcast (JohnOlearyinspires.com) brings up about simplifying life – in ALL areas of our lives, not just with our possessions. Right before I recorded this message I was watching the World Cup – Argentina beating Nigeria…. Great passion, tons of pressure and teamwork along with country pride. Again, these messages I needed to hear for sure. Hope this show gives you some ideas to make s

After a great week of basketball camp instruction, our last day today ended with a great guest speaker - Mr. Jon Horford (find him at blueprintathletes.com) He spoke to our campers today about paying attention to details - not just in basketball, but in life! There were some great basketball connections too of course for our players, which our coaching staff has already decided to use throughout our upcoming season. Jim Rohn also has a lot to say about this too. There were a few reminders here that I brought up from him too.

Encouragement - it's something that makes such a difference for others but also for ourselves too. I was mowing the lawn tonight and listening to a couple of podcasts too. One was the Ziglar podcast - show #578: https://ziglarshow.com/podcast/578-how-to-get-the-encouragement-you-need/ Wow, what a great show about the importance and power of encouragement. Check the show out and I would really enjoy having a discussion about this or any other topic.

A great weekend to kind of kick off summer. Watching the US Open has always been something I enjoy watching. The final round is always on Fathers Day - which goes perfectly together. The great game of golf has been introduced by so many fathers / grandfathers and mothers and grandmothers too - to their kids. We also had another great life-event yesterday - a wedding of our neighbors oldest daughter. So many fantastic lessons during this weekend. Hope you find some in this show too. :-) Let's talk about this and any other podcast that is out there - find me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/ over on Twitter: @coachtosuccess and on Instagram: @coachjohndaly
