Being a leader is not about you.
It never has.
It never will be.
Leadership is about creating value to those you serve.
To be a more effective leader..
Fight the self-serving urge.
Instead..
Redirect that urge to your people.
Like a muscle, it will get easier with time.
This is leadership.
Happy Monday Mindset!š
I received this recently from my good friend Mike Zakarian, who is a Franchise Business Coach and Owner of a Fit Body location.
It was a wonderful message and wanted to pass it along so you received the value!š„

āHope you had a wonderful weekend.
In the computer science space, thereās a saying:Ā Garbage in, garbage out.
It means thatĀ the quality of input = the quality of output.
Iām no computer science major but what I do know is that this is true in life and business!Ā
Itās simpleā¦
Watch the news, and feel doom and gloom.
Hang with victims, feel like a victim.
Eat like crap, feel like crap.
You simply cannot show up as your best self with your family, team, and clients if you have garbage input.
If you want to change your life, it starts with controlling what you let into your mind!Ā
My challenge for you is to do anĀ audit of all the input youāre taking everydayĀ and make one change!Ā
Replace one thing with something positive and watch how much better you feel.Ā
Reply back with what input youāre changing!ā

Leadership is hard because your job as the leader is to help people, not to make them happy.
Let me explain..
Think about parenting, aka leading your child.
Your child wants candy.
Your child wants to stay up late.
Your child does not want to wear clothes or bathe.
Your child wants total chaos whenever they want it.
Am I right?
But by letting them do want they want..
Yes, that will make them happy in the moment.Ā
But I believe you would agree..
That’s not being a good parent or leading them well.
So here’s the tough reality.
Leading is about helping people.
And when you help people, many times they don’t like..
At least, it was at first.
It’s only as the process unfolds where this becomes apparent.
This is why leadership is hard.
So remember..
It’s your job as a leader to HELP PEOPLE, not to make them happy.
Happy Monday Mindset AND Memorial Day!šŗšø
I hope you are having a great Memorial Day weekend.š
This Holiday holds a significant place in our hearts as we remember and honor the brave men and women who have, and continue to, sacrifice their lives for our country.
We owe a debt of gratitude to these heroes and their families who protect our freedoms and keep us safe.šŖ
Thank you for all you do!š
Have an amazing day.

Being a leader means leading oneself first and foremost. It takes a tough and stoic mindset.
Below is one of my favorite pieces of leadership advice from 1 of the world’s greatest leaders in Jocko Willink, retired Navy Seal and author of āExtreme Ownershipā.
–
Jocko Willink “GOOD” (Official)
āWhen things are going bad, don’t get bummed out, don’t get startled, don’t get frustrated.
If you can say the word āGoodā.Ā
Guess what?
It means you’re still alive.
It means you’re still breathing.
And if you’re still breathing.
Well then hell, you got some fight left in you.
So get up.Ā
Dust off.Ā
Reload.
Recalibrate.
Re-engage.
And go out on the ATTACK.āĀ

Happy Monday Mindset!š
I saw this short video recently and thought of you.
Why?
It scared me.
In fact, many emotions ran through my body.
A big benefit to health and fitness is a better physique and more confidence.šŖ
But it does way more than that.
Fitness can give you the mobility and physicality to SAVE lives!!
The opposite is also true.
So my passionate plea is this..Ā
Next time you don’t feel like exercising..
While I get it and have been there too..
Remember that is a temporary feeling and a selfish thought.
Why?
Your family, children and loved ones are depending on you!!
The good news?
With a proper fitness and nutrition routine..
You can save lives!š„

Now for todays message.
My friend Lydia who is the owner of a Fit Body Boot Camp in Virginia shared this with me recently and thought it was so valuable I wanted to pass on..
āBryce,
Someone just sent me thisĀ included postĀ (originally from Reddit I believe), and itās a good perspective shift.
As our gymās āadmin,ā I field any requests to pause or cancelā¦Ā
I hate doing it because I want everyone to stay forever, but know that canāt always happen. š
I always ask the reason and hear many different things, but budgeting is a common reason.
Believe me, I know what itās like to live on a lean budget..
But it always surprises me that the gym. The very place they found that finally works, where thereās a community of people who care, where we will do everything to deliver resultsā is one of the first things to go.
I think subconsciously, we view exercise as a āluxury itemā.Ā
Something we only deserve to spend money and time on āwhen we have itāā¦.Ā
Which, if thereās one thing we know about time and money, itās that thereās never enough.
Instead of worrying about the cost to go, ask yourself about the cost of NOT going!
*Disclaimer: obviously I know there are unique situations and I believe you can work out wherever you want to and spend however much or little makes sense for you as long as itās something that works and something you stick to. šš¼āĀ
Please share this with someone who needs this message!
Make it a great Monday!š„

Happy Monday Mindset!š
This past weekend I realized a big accomplishment.
So today I wanted to inspire and challenge you!šŖ
What accomplishment?
Well, I have been visiting my Brazilian Portuguese teacher nearly every weekend for my hour-long language class for 9 years and going strong.
There are a few times a year when she is out of town or I am, so we need to cancel our class.
That aside and 99% of the time every weekend..
We meet so I can challenge myself and learn her beautiful language.šµš¹š§š·
Why you might ask?
In 2010, I made a commitment as I always wanted to be bilingual.š„
And as a consequence, I took on a āwhatever it takesāĀ mindset to accomplish this after visiting Rio de Janeiro Brazil on vacation the year prior.Ā
It was love at first sight (both with the language and culture) which eventually led to meeting my bride Tatiana and her amazing family.š„°
Fast forward 13 years..
Has it been easy?
HECK NO!Ā ā
In fact, this has been probably 1 of the hardest things I’ve done in my life.
And being very honest with you, most weekends I do NOT feel like taking class even though I love Mara!
However, itās definitely one of the most rewarding things I have accomplished to date.
And as an added bonus..
I made an amazing lifelong friend in Mara during the process who has provided me with a gift of friendship I could never pay back.š«¶
Today’s message?
Pick a mental or physical challenge that you need YEARS not days to execute!
The challenge is where long-term FULFILLMENT resides.
For me, it was learning Brazilian Portuguese fluently.
But whatever it is for you..Ā
It needs to LIGHT YOUR FIRE!š„
Once you decide, then here are your action steps..
In my experience, most times you won’t feel like it at the moment!
But trust me when I say the reward in the end is PRICELESS which will also completely enrich your life.Ā āØ
That’s been my experience and I want the same for YOU! š
Make it a great Monday!
