[MM]: What’s even worse than rock bottom.. 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: What’s even worse than rock bottom..

Happy Monday!🙌

Last week I was in the studio with my business partner Bedros.

We recorded a few new episodes for the release of my newly branded podcast the “CEO Show” with Bryce Henson.

I’m excited for the release of the show on July 3 so stay tuned.👊

In 1 of the episodes, we talked about “hitting rock bottom”.

While that’s not a fun place to be.❌

Bedros said something interesting which I resonated with..

“Bryce, you know what’s even worse than rock bottom. Hoverging just an inch above rock bottom. That’s true misery.”

His comment stopped my in my tracks.

I had never thought of it that way.

But in an instant, I knew the genius of it.✨

It reminded me when I made the decision to stop drinking alcohol in December 2016.

While the experience of seeing a loved one in distress was horrible.

The painful event and the self reflection of my own demons around the situation created change.

It actually caused me to wake up and take action to remove alcohol from my life.

As a result.

I’m a better person and leader.🌟

If you can believe..

I’m grateful for hitting rock bottom.🙏

Rock bottom forced change.

While that was bad.

What was worse was the months that led up to that experience.

It was hell.

You see, Bedros was right.đź’Ż

Hovering over rock bottom was the true misery.

It’s a point of misery, just out of reach out action. 

Ahh!!!

Anyway, I was inspired by last week’s chat.

So wanted to share the story & takeaway to inspire you today.⚡️

So please remember..

Sometimes rock bottom is a better place than hovering over it.

As rock bottom forces change.

So if this is you, surrender to it and let the rebound begin.

In the case you need a change or just need someone to talk to, my team and I are here to help.

Just reply.

Happy Monday!🔥

Leadership Lesson: Lead Your Family 150 150 Bryce Henson

Leadership Lesson: Lead Your Family

In the last 2 weeks, we uncovered a simple way to lead yourself. 

Through your fitness.

Taking care of your health and fitness is your ultimate form of self-leadership.

Now it’s time to expand on the leadership framework.

When you can lead yourself, you are capable of leading your family.

The best way to do this?

Take a step back and think to yourself who is someone you admire.

What qualities does this person possess?

Make a list.

Write them down.

Now here’s where it gets good.

Begin to model these qualities in your own life.

Quality by quality.

Through this, you will build a person others admire.

No, this is not easy.

It’s hard, real hard.

So is leadership.

Why?

You have flaws, lots of them.

I do too.

[MM]: It’s not the size of the dog… 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: It’s not the size of the dog…

Happy Monday Mindset!

To finish off the quote from the headline..

It’s not the size of the dog in the fight.

It’s the size of the fight in the dog!

Why do I share this today?

I just connected with an old friend which reminded me of this motto I took on in my youth.
You see, I was a whopping 5’1 my freshman year.

I didn’t grow much further until my senior year.

Entering high school, I was the smallest guy in my class of 200+.

It wasn’t fun. 

I was insecure. 

I had to work 3x as hard in athletics just to keep up.

I hated it. 

However, it ended up becoming my super power.

Why?

It taught me work ethic.

It taught me the need to hustle.

It taught me grit.

It taught me I need to do what others are unwilling to do to become successful.

This has carried with me until this day.

And this is my message for you today.

No matter what “disadvantage” you think you have.

If you re-frame it, it can be a blessing.

After all..

Adversity is your advantage. 

So remember:

It’s not the size of the dog in the fight.

It’s the size of the fight in the dog!

Happy Monday and please share this with someone in need!

Leadership Lesson: Lead Yourself Over The 99% 150 150 Bryce Henson

Leadership Lesson: Lead Yourself Over The 99%

Last week we covered this: 

Leading yourself is the first principle to become a better leader.

By dialing in your fitness and maintaining a healthy weight, you now are qualified to lead 80% of people in our country.

Ok, great.

But let’s take it to another level, shall we?

What if you wanted a tool to help you lead more than 99% of people.

Here is the secret:

Take your fitness to a higher level more than just maintaining a healthy weight.

The target is: you should look like your workout.

In other words.

No one should need to ask if you lift weights.

They should know by your appearance alone.

This means a consistent focus on lifting weights and clean nutrition.

This will separate your leadership.

Full stop.

Now does this mean, that just because you are noticeably in shape, you are an amazing leader?

No.

But it does send a message to yourself and others that can lead you.

When you can lead you, others will follow.

So please take action as this discipline is a tool to better your life and separate you and your leadership.

[MM]: The secret to life success

Happy Monday Mindset!

This weekend I was at the Limitless Personal Growth Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah. 

I was there to support my business partner and Founder of Fit Body, Bedros Keuilian who gave a big keynote.

The topic of his talk?

How to launch and scale businesses which is his zone of genius.

After all, he is a world class business man and true American dream story rags to riches story.

His family escaped Communist Soviet Union in 1980, made it to California and lived in Section 8 housing and on food stamps.

From that start and fast forward 40 years later, he’s built a business empire.

Now as you would expect, he gave strong business advice. 

However, the key business recommendation consistent throughout his talk wasn’t what you would have expected. 

In a nutshell, his message was this:

If you want to grow a business or do anything important in life in the service of others.

It starts with you.

It starts with your health & fitness.

When you eat clean and train 3-4x per week consistently, this is the foundation for success in all aspects of life.

It’s the “gateway” drug to a happier, healthier and productive you.

Sound business advice.

Sound fitness advice. 

Sound life advice.

I hope you are inspired and take action!

Leadership Lesson: Lead Yourself 150 150 Bryce Henson

Leadership Lesson: Lead Yourself

Leading yourself is the first principle to become a better leader.

Why?

If you cannot lead yourself, others won’t follow you.

This is the tough truth.

Ok, now you must ask yourself: 

“How do you lead yourself better?”

Many ways.

The first is through fitness.

When you dial in your fitness.

This is the ultimate form of self-leadership.

Is this easy?

No.

This is why 80% of our population in the US is overweight or obese.

The silver lining?

It’s not easy but not complex either.

This also creates a big opportunity for you.

When you take control of your fitness and at the very least, maintain a healthy weight.

You demonstrate your self-leadership to the world without having to say a word.

Let me repeat. 

By dialing in your fitness and maintaining a healthy weight, you now are qualified to lead 80% of people in our country.

This is the straightest path to your next step as a leader.

Stay tuned for next week for a simple way to qualify yourself to lead 99% of the planet.

[MM]: The quality of your life is dependent on this.. 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: The quality of your life is dependent on this..

 

Happy Monday Mindset!

The quality of your life is dependent on the quality of your relationships & in the community in which you belong.

This was very evident this past weekend.

I spent it in Dallas Texas at my good friend Amberly Lago’s annual “Unstoppable Success Summit”.

She reached out a few months back and invited me to give an opening talk at the VIP event.

She inquired if Fit Body could also sponsor part of the event.

Without hesitation, the answer was an emphatic YES!

Why?

My relationship with Amberly.

Yes, it did make sense from a business perspective given the value of the sponsorship exchange.

But way more than that.

It was to pour into someone that has poured into me and our Fit Body Franchise Partners.

Amberly and I met a few years ago.

We hit it off.

She has an incredible story of almost dying in a motorcycle accident and now is inspiring men and women to live their best life.

Her message and book is called  “Grit and Grace”.

Respect.

Anyway, we shot some marketing content together.

She gave a world class keynote at our 2023 Annual World Conference last year to help our Franchise Partners & coaches with their adversity mindset.

So it only made sense we could support her.

This my friend is the power of building strong relationships and having a strong community to support.

The best part?

This is true in fitness, business and in life!

The deeper the relationships and community support, the deeper the life fulfillment.

After all..

The quality of your life is dependent on the quality of your relationships and the community in which you belong.

Make it a great week!

[MM]: The Parable Of Two Wolves 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: The Parable Of Two Wolves

Happy Monday!

My wife Tatiana sent me this parable and wanted to share to educate and inspire!

In a small village nestled between a forest and the hills, there lived an old man known for his wisdom. 

One evening, as the sun painted the sky with hues of orange and purple, he sat outside his quaint cottage with his young grandson, who always yearned for his stories and lessons about life.

“Grandfather,” the boy said, “tell me, what is the most important lesson for a person to learn?”

The man smiled and gazed into the distance, where the shadows of the trees were merging with the night.

“Inside each of us is a fierce battle that rages on,” he said. “It’s like two wolves constantly at war with each other.

One wolf represents darkness and despair—it is anger, jealousy, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego. 

It thrives on our worst impulses and feeds on our failures.

“The other wolf embodies light and hope-it is joy, peace, love, hope, calmness, humility, kindness, empathy, generosity and faith.”

The boy, absorbed in his grandfather’s words, asked with a sense of urgency, “But, grandfather, if they are always fighting, which wolf wins?”

The man looked deeply into his grandson’s eyes and said softly..

“The one you feed, my child. The one you feed.”

My call to action today is to feed your inner wolf that embodies light, joy, peace and hope. 

Have a great Monday!

Leadership Lesson: Rule #10 Have Fun and Enjoy the Ride 150 150 Bryce Henson

Leadership Lesson: Rule #10 Have Fun and Enjoy the Ride

Leadership is tough.

It takes guts and is not for the faint of heart.

It requires sacrifice.

It will test you.

Most times it’s riddled with pressure and is uncomfortable.

While true.

Still, it’s a journey.

One to be enjoyed.

How?

Now and again, take a step back.

Smell the roses and have some fun.

After all, leadership is about the ride toward the destination.

So take time to enjoy it.

Then back to work.
