Monday Mindset

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌 

There was a lot of attention and controversy over the Tyson & Paul fight on Friday.

For starters..

There was a 31-year age gap.

There were critics of the lack of luster fight.

There was a commentary on how dare Jake Paul should enter the ring with an “old man”.

Whatever your take, this is mine.

I give Mike Tyson credit for getting back in the ring.

He trained and looked good for 58 years old.

While there were some glimpses of his former greatness.

The reality is that father time waits for no man.

Tyson while in good shape, couldn’t bridge a 31-year age gap.

The truth is that life happens fast.

It hits hard.

In a blink, it’s gone.

So my message is one of urgency today.

Father time is undefeated.

The time is NOW to pursue your dreams, take that shot, open that business, and go for it.

So what are you waiting for?

After all, Father Time is undefeated.

I sent the below message to my Fit Body Franchise Partners as their CEO and supporter of small businesses in America to address the global event from last week.

I aimed to provide some of my perspective on the road ahead with a business lesson at the foundation.

Given my role, I owed it to them and trust you will receive value too.

Have a great week!

Family! 🙌

It’s no secret that last week, the United States of America elected Donald Trump to be its 47th Head Policy Maker. 

While I don’t have a crystal ball.

Being your CEO and a Franchisor who’s invested in your business and life success, I want to share with you what I see.

I look to ignore the subjectivity of the Legacy media narrative and the personalities of the candidates. 

Instead, I focus on past data to predict future performance.

With this in mind, his track record, suggests the next 4 years will consist of:

• Lower inflation 
• Lower tax rates
• Fewer regulations
• Lower interest rates
• Lower energy costs
• Increased GDP
• Increased levels of free speech/feedback culture
• Higher security
• Less global conflict

While nothing is guaranteed.

If this happens, these action items will create tailwinds for your business just as the data suggests from his first term.

So yes, I am optimistic that the next 4 years will bring a much better business climate for the US, much of the world, and most importantly you.

However, my message today is not of sunshine and rainbows.

Instead, it’s to deliver the cold hard truth that no one is coming to save you.

No, not Donald Trump, nor would Kamala Harris have saved you.

Neither of them are going to:

• Come get you out of bed to hold you accountable to your daily workouts
• Teach you how to lead, market, and sell
• Focus on your client retention
• Train up your team
• Grow your business
• Pick up your kids from school to ensure they are taken care of
• Come over for Thanksgiving Dinner to give you a hug or pep talk when you are down 

The reality is that any tailwinds won’t guarantee your success.

Nor will headwinds cement your failure.

While I do believe the business climate will get better which will increase the probability of your prosperity.

The truth is that nobody is coming to save you.

You must save yourself.

And the time isn’t yesterday, tomorrow, next month, or next year.

The time is now.

Onward!

Change is the only constant in life.

We know this to be true, but human nature still resists. 

Well, let’s prepare ourselves.

More change is coming. 

The US is electing a new President this week. 🇺🇸

And it’s no secret to anyone that the last 4 years have been tough in many ways that have affected small businesses which is the backbone of America. 

We have seen government overspending in record-breaking proportions (otherwise known as inflation), rising interest rates, global conflict, a lack of homeland security, and the list goes on.

Yes, I hope for positive change that will create better tailwinds for us, our country, and humanity.

Ultimately though, that’s not totally up to me or anyone of us. 

However, what is up to us is how we respond, not react to whatever the new changes bring.

And this my friend is my message today.

Don’t resist the change.

Instead, prepare for it, embrace and drive it in whatever way it comes. 

Make it a GREAT week!

Last month I had my good friend Will come to Fit Body Headquarters. 

He’s from the East Coast, moved to California years ago, and is a world-class educator.

Through being a teacher, he realized something alarming.

The education system has good intentions but lacks education around critical thinking. 

This is a big problem!

After all, we humans are tribal.

We are evolutionarily wired to go with the grain as thousands of years ago, being kicked from the tribe meant death.

However, what if the crowd is going in the wrong direction?

The truth is history is filled with countless examples of the herd going the wrong way.

This is why he founded Patterdox.

It’s also why as business owners and leaders in our communities, we must learn to critically think.

So my message today is to bring awareness of this gap and to empower you to learn this important skill of critical thinking.

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

I read this quote by Benjamin Frankin during my junior of college.

It stopped me in my tracks at the simplicity but genius of it.

“Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

I wanted to be healthy, wealthy, and wise so it resonated.

But truth be told.

I didn’t act on it until about 8 years later. 

However, when I did, it changed the game.

In fact, without adopting it, I wouldn’t be writing this email today. 

I wouldn’t have been a business owner, lived abroad, and ascended to become the CEO of an international fitness franchise.

Why?

When you get a jump on the day, you are more productive.

When you are more productive, you become even more productive.

The law of momentum is real.

The trick?

Get to bed by 9pm.

This will create the momentum for you to rise early and dominate your day.

Make it a GREAT and EARLY Week!

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

4,354 days ago, my wife Tatiana and my Fit Body Boot Camp ownership journey began on a cold dark morning in Orange County, California.

The date was November 5, 2012. 

I had Tatiana and my sister work out at every session to “make the sessions seem more full” being we started with a whopping 12 free trials.

Our Franchise onboarding support was night and day different back in those days. We now guarantee 100+ paid trials through our owner’s doors. 

I digress.

We had 4 walls, mats, no equipment, and no clue on how to run a business. But we did have the support of our franchise and a whole love of passion to Inspire Fitness and Change Lives.

In the following 4,354 days.

We would open 5 locations, meet an incredible amount of amazing clients/teammates, learn how to operate a business, battle a global pandemic, and change alot of lives through our team who are the true heroes.

It would be an understatement to say this experience has changed our lives with plenty of blood, sweat, and tears shed in the process. 

As I look back, I am filled with so many emotions.

The biggest is gratitude.

In some ways, November 5, 2012, feels like an eternity ago.

In other ways, it feels like yesterday.

Well, my friend.

Last week on Tuesday, October 1, Tatiana and my Fit Body ownership status changed as we transferred Mission Viejo Fit Body to a new owner Coach Melissa.

This is so that I can focus more on the Fit Body Boot Camp brand as your CEO and so we can have children.

On the 1 hand, I am sad as I write this in tears for this chapter finishing.

On the other hand, I’m filled with joy that it happened.

My message today is that you must embrace & drive change.

It’s the only constant in life.

That’s right, out with the old and with the new.

Yes, it’s scary but needed if you want to live a life of impact, income, and legacy.

Head up and onward.

Make it a GREAT week!

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

With so many things on my plate running an international fitness franchise, I often get asked this question:

“Bryce, what’s your morning routine?”

The answer is simple.

Turns out, there are only 3 things I do when I wake up before getting to work.

1. 30-minute full-body workout 🏋️
2. 10-minutes in the hot sauna 🔥
3. 215 seconds in the cold plunge at 40-degree water. 🥶

Then I’m at my desk by 6:15am ready to attack the day. 💪

Why?

This creates mental and physical toughness.

It creates momentum.

It creates productivity.

Today’s message?

Most times it’s not the trivial many, but the important few that make the difference.

Move your body and train your mind.

Then get to work!

Make it a GREAT week!

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

Here’s the truth about human nature.

Just like an electrical current.

Humans take the path of least resistance.

Need proof?

Go to the airport or shopping mall and observe the escalator vs. the stairs.

99% of humans will take the easier path of an escalator.

We are just wired this way.

The good news?

The opposite is also true.

When humans are put in situations where we have “to sink or swim”.

We rise to the occasion and swim.

This is why to progress, we must be challenged.

To illustrate my point further.

I’ll leave you with the famous words of Bruce Lee which is my message today. 

“Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.”

This is a great prayer. 

Your action should be one of self-challenge which will provide you strength. 

Have a great week!

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌 

This past weekend I spent in Scottsdale, AZ at the BK Live event. 

What’s BK Live?

It’s a business development & personal growth event hosted by my business partner and Founder of Fit Body Boot Camp, Bedros Keuilian.

I was there because Bedros asked me to give a keynote to teach leadership and delegation. 

While I have many weaknesses.

This is my zone of genius so was excited to add value to the business owners and fitness professionals in attendance.

I put together a 6-point framework to help the business owners level up their leadership & delegation skills.

The truth is that I’ve learned from trial and error over the last 12 years as a business leader.

Many good decisions, but my fair share of bad ones which are learning lessons that I can provide to help other leaders.

While I was able to share 5 tactics that the audience can apply as of today.

The 1st foundational leadership principle I taught is self-leadership through dialing in your fitness.

After all, before you can lead your family or a business empire; you need to lead you. In dialing in your fitness, you exercise the ultimate form of self-leadership.

And what I’ve learned in leadership, a big part of it is demonstrating the behaviors you want to see in your team.

This is why I love and have built a career in helping you and others with their fitness.

Fitness is the foundation of a better life and your ability to be a better leader.

So my message today is this.

Whether you want to become a better leader for your company, your community, your family, your kids, or even just you. 

Get fit and stay fit. 

Yes, dial in your fitness! 

When you do.

You develop discipline, create more self-confidence, and will become the leader you, your family, and our community need.

Have a great week!
