Coach John Daly - Coach To Expect Success - Podcasts

Owning It is something we all have to do more of. We all need to own more of our lives - our choices, our thoughts, our reactions, in fact it covers everything we have a choice on or control of in our lives. There are 8 Steps to Personal Accountability that I go over here. Find the picture and some more information on my Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/ Each and every one of these 8 statements are so vitally important for us to take a look at improving them for ourselves. In fact, just work on 1 at a time and watch the improvements that happen, the new opportunities that come our way, the new people we get connected with, and the list goes on and on. Would love to have a discussion on this list or anything else you see that means something to you - something that gets you thinking differently than before. Hope for some great conversations... check out the website for the QBQ book series along with the principles behind this personal accountability movement: http://q

Our self-talk - it's been described as one of the most important things we can do for ourselves. We are the only ones that can believe in ourselves more than others can... since we are the ones that can do something with that belief.. or the lack there of. Les Brown is right... this is such an important part of success in our lives.. simple belief! Remember - If we don't believe in ourselves & others don't either.... we can end up in a few dark places. Don't do it... plan on finding things in your life to help you reach your success.

The conversation is continuing - great nuggets - great teachings about life, relationships, the ups and downs, and so many other life lessons. This is our 8th conversation with Dr. Jeff Lip and there are some very exciting things coming soon for both Jeff and I. So get your notebooks ready - find your favorite beverage to sit back and enjoy the next conversation with Jeff.

Great article I found here that I had to share with you... check it out here: https://www.success.com/article/8-ways-to-be-a-more-confident-person I think we all need (or maybe it's just me a few other people) constant reminders on how we can become more confident. It's part of the many puzzle pieces of personal development - self-improvement... those things necessary for us to find those success puzzle pieces in our life's puzzle. I am totally amazed as to the amount of great information that is out there for us to use in our lives. I'm hoping that this podcast helps you with a couple of nuggets to help get you going in a great direction.

Coach John Wooded had so many success & leadership principles to share with the world. Imagine if he didn't go into teaching? What happens if there was not a bad storm that knocked out power in Minnesota... they couldn't call him and offer the basketball coaching job to him.... UCLA could get a hold of him... and he took that job. Amazing to think of all the different twists and turns in life that affect us. This diagram - the pyramid of success is such a valuable tool to have in life. Hope this 5 part discussion helped you find some new things to think about your journey to having success in your life.

Love this... I know now that I must revisit this pyramid of success every year.. to reflect, think about new connections to each of Coach Wooden's terms on this thing. It's amazing that a basketball coach could have this much effect on so many non-basketball people. These terms that he has set up on his Pyramid of Success are pure gold... they help so much in everyday life. Things that are on my mind, things that I'm struggling with - going through this helps me so much. I'm hoping it helps you too.

Love this picture of Coach John Wooden's Pyramid of Success - they are out there all over -but find a copy here: http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/ucla/genrel/auto_pdf/2011-12/misc_non_event/pyramid-of-success-worksheet.pdf I'm taking a few shows at discussing this every important document as it's been a part of my life for almost 40 years. I remember as a kid seeing this and reading one of his books & really connecting to his teachings about life, leadership, success, coaching, etc. You don't have to be a basketball fan to get something from this all-time great. The points on this pyramid of success is all about life! Sit back and enjoy this episode and a few upcoming shows where we dive into getting better in our lives with the help of a basketball coaching legend!

People who make an impact on others - a positive one at that. We all have had people in our lives that have done that & hopefully we can be that same difference-making person for others too. Don Munn was one of those people for me and countless others. Don was a student of mine that graduated high school in 2000. He joined the US Army and was killed in action in 2007. Today a group of his friends and family have carried on the tradition of service, difference maker for others, getting along with everyone, etc. - traits that Don had - they are carrying on with having a scholarship in Don's name. They had the 4th annual Munn Fun Run.... a 5K race starting at Lake Shore High School's football stadium & track - running around the surrounding neighborhood - in and around Memorial Park in St. Claire Shores, MI - then finishing back at the high school. So many great people helping out in Don's memory. Namely, another former student of mine and classmate of Don's - Anna Vande

So many times today - I laughed. Mostly at myself - which I find it a heck of lot better than beating myself up. There are so many great things that laughter does for us, from our health, to our relationships, and much more. Try it - find some funny movies or television shows - go out with friends and have fun - anything you can do to help get you laughing. It's worth it - and it's good for you! Try it.

Love these interviews - Working with Jeff on this 5th installment in our series... has been nothing short of AMAZING!! There are so many lessons coming from his story - I sincerely hope you are finding value in our discussions. So much so - would you please do both Jeff and I a favor? Please share these interviews with your friends and family who you think might benefit in some way. There is so much tremendous value in his discussions that he is sharing with us.

Dreams - they don't have to be on some huge poster that ranks them according to size for other people - they have to be your dream! The size of it in your heart, soul and mind is all that matters. So much going on in the world today - terror / evil all around us it seems. Las Vegas having a horrible shooting with so many people dead and many, many more injured. Things going on in Europe and so many other parts of the world. Worry, negativity, division, etc., it's a never-ending list of news items that we see every day. I'm here to try and get you to take the emotion and energy that we give to all of these events - the negative ones don't deserve us to give up our dreams due to fear, anger, emotions running out of control. Our dreams deserve us to do all that we can in order to make them a reality. I am looking to use these negative, sad and evil events as motivation to put into improving in every part of my life & that includes me getting closer to making my dreams and goals

On a weekend - couple of things that got me thinking how important it is to find some things to recharge - renew - do some fun things - with people that mean something to you. Feel free to not wait for weekends to do these things. They are good to do anytime. Keep in touch on my FB page: https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/ or on Twitter: @coachtosuccess

Love these talks with Jeff - I hope you do too. He's really getting into some great teaching here with what he's sharing with us. So many valuable lessons from every show we do together - One of the main ones is that of the importance of relationships in our lives. People come in and out of our lives every day - what are we doing to connect to people? Listen to the other 3 parts if you can - this 4th part will continue our journey with Jeff - so get your journal or notebook out - get ready for the gold nuggets that he will be tossing out here in today's segment. Enjoy!

Lessons upon lessons - life is full of them and what better way to learn than from those that have been out ahead of us in life. This came about from a TED talk that Jeff Lip shared with me the other day. It was shared about a long-time study of a group of men - studied from when they were kids until they were elderly - focusing on Happiness - and they found some remarkable things. Relationships came to the top as what was really important in life. Here is the link: https://www.ted.com/talks/robert_waldinger_what_makes_a_good_life_lessons_from_the_longest_study_on_happiness That got me really thinking about this so I found a few articles - here is the one that I shared today: http://www.lifehack.org/articles/communication/20-things-people-regret-the-most-before-they-die.html This is something that I will probably focus in on again sometime - I find it fascinating to learn from others.
