My buddy Joey sent me this a while back and got value so know you will too…👇

–

A few years ago, a coworker told me a short story about a king, a criminal, fear, and freedom. 

The story really left a long-lasting impression on me. 

In fact, I visualize the door from the story in my mind almost every single day. 

Let me pass the story on to you — it goes like this: 

A criminal was caught committing a crime and brought before a king for sentencing. 

The king told him to choose between two punishments: 

1. Hanging by rope OR 
2. Taking whatever was behind an ominous, mysterious ironclad door 

Without hesitation, the criminal chose the rope. 📿

The king, not shocked, mumbled “everybody chooses the rope” while he ordered to have a noose put around the criminal’s neck. 

Seeing the king’s reaction, the criminal asked: 

“So… out of curiosity, what’s behind the door?” 

The king paused then said: 

“Freedom — but everybody is so fearful of the unknown that they immediately choose the rope.” 

HOW TRUE! 💯

I don’t know about you, but I believe that it’s unreasonable to be completely fearless— 

To reach a point in your life where you never, ever feel fear.

Life is too dynamic nowadays. 👊

Situations present themselves in a flash and leave you: 

• Fearing how your trying will end in failure 
• Fearing how you’re not good enough 
• Fearing how your ego or reputation will be bruised 

The good news is, like many emotions, I do believe fear has its lace… 

AS A TOOL. 

You just need a strategy to face it so it doesn’t completely overwhelm you. 

If it does, you’re paralyzed…  

And you’ll most certainly “choose the rope”.  

When I’m facing the fear of a limiting belief, big lift, or business risk, here’s how I prevent the overwhelm: 

(I call it the triple B strategy!) 

I breathe to create space between me and my fear. 

Just a sliver of space — a moment of detachment — and, in that space,  

I bring awareness to the gift (yes, I said gift) that this fear is presenting to me, such as: 

• Increased brainpower to focus 
• Increased motivation to move 
• Increased opportunity to grow 

And then comes the hard part: 

I barrel towards the fear. 💥

For you, it could be public speaking, joining a fitness program, launching a business, learning a new skill in a group setting, starting a difficult conversation with a coworker, ending a relationship —  

Whatever it is, remember that fear doesn’t have to confine you… 

It can be the thing that frees you. 😱

If you value freedom as much as I do, give my strategy a shot and let me know if it helps you out! 

Here’s to turning fears into freedom this year,

The last 2 years were a great test which questioned our resolve.

Although through the adversity, the fact remains, that we value FREEDOM here in this amazing country of ours. 🇺🇸

No, we are not without problems. ☑️

In fact, problems are just a sign of life…

However, we have an incredible nation to call home, and this value of freedom is engrained in our DNA.

Not because it’s free.

Rather, because of the strong men and women, both past and present, that have served to defend it…💯

Happy Memorial Day and let’s remember its true purpose by remembering and honoring our fallen soldiers who have and continued to protect our freedom. 👊

Ahh.. 

And don’t also forget to enjoy some time with your loved ones which make our freedom most enjoyable.❤️

Love and gratitude,

Happy Monday! 🙌

I came across one of my favorite poems this weekend by Theodore Roosevelt entitled “Man in the Arena”. 🏟

I was inspired so I included it below as it’s a reminder of the value of effort, persistence, and passion in pursuing your dreams towards a noble cause. 💯

I trust will inspire you just as much as it has done for me…👇

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. 

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again because there is no effort without error and shortcoming. 

But who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Let’s make it a great week! 👊
