Monday Mindset

Happy Monday Mindset!

I hope your 2025 is off to a great start.

I just back from a 12-day trip to Brazil to spend Christmas and New Year with my wife Tatiana’s family. 

During the trip, I was there to make good on a promise I made Tatiana’s mom 12 years ago.

I also celebrated a milestone of 8 years of being alcohol-free.

Here’s a little backstory:

For a long time, it was tough to see I had a problem with alcohol. 

I was never a daily drinker. 

In fact, my drinking became less frequent through my early 30’s.

However, the 2nd truth is it became more aggressive on the times I did drink about a handful of times per month.

For me, when I start, I cannot stop as a craving for more develops.  

This is the same craving that sugar induces for most people.

 The problem?

I didn’t understand the craving from my biochemistry made me drink differently than most people.

I was blind to this fact. 

As a result, I had bad experiences due to overdrinking that drew on my relationships and self-confidence.

The straw that broke the camel’s back?

It was seeing a loved one with the same problem’s life come in distress.

After a mountain of personal, relational, and legal issues, it became apparent this was a serious issue needing resolving.

My advice was to stop drinking completely and seek help.

Good advice.

However, I realized the cold hard truth that this was advice I needed to take myself. 

The realization of being a hypocritic was painful enough that it got me to stop drinking and seek help.

This is my message today.

We all have our cross to bear. 

Mine is alcohol.

Yours might be sugar, porn, or gambling to name a few.

Whatever your coping mechanism.

Realize this truth:

There are many people out there who have solved the problem you might be currently going through.

The 2nd truth:

They want to help.

You just must go through enough pain, have the desire, and then dig up all the strength and humility to seek it.

No, it won’t be easy.

Yes, you can make a change.

The best part?

When you do, your life will change just like mine did 8 years ago last week. 

If I can be of service, I’m here cheering you on.

Just reply.

 Happy Monday and let’s go 2025!

Happy Monday Mindset! 🙌

Live from Rio De Janeiro Brazil having arrived yesterday.

Why?

To make good on a promise I made my mother-in-law Cristina back in 2012.

The promise?

To bring her daughter home for Christmas after sweeping her away from her Brazilian home after living there from 2010-2012.

Looking back, it’s been a 12-year sprint of keeping that promise.

Of course, there are other big benefits of making the journey including gaining access to perspective and my Brazilian family.

Travel gives you perspective and develops leadership ability.

I buy into the adage.

“Perspective is Leadership and Leadership is Perspective”.

So this annual ritual makes me a better leader.

Looking ahead to this special week.

My main message is to be a person of your word.

When you make a promise, keep a promise.

No matter the challenge or inconvenience. 

Not only does this create more credibility with others. 

It creates more self credibility.

The best part?

Self-credibility is the foundation of self-confidence.

This is your success formula!

Merry Christmas!

Back in 2021, my friend and franchise partner CJ, who has a heart of gold, came to me and our HQ team with an idea.

“Bryce, we do such great work here at Fit Body helping our clients with their fitness and fat loss goals, but know we can do even more! 

As we know, Thanksgiving is an amazing time but can be tough for those in need. What if we create a giant food drive with all of the brand participating to help out the less fortunate and make a massive impact together?

He then began to draw out a plan on a whiteboard and finished his pitch with this:

“If we execute well, I think we can raise over 100,000 food items together”.

Well, on CJ’s and his teams back, we launched the vision in 2022 and we called it the Fit Body Food Battle.

It was a small start but we started.

Fast forward a few years, and our 3rd Annual Fit Body Food Battle results are in as of last week. 

The good news?

We beat last year’s tally coming in at 194,200 food items donated as a brand. 

That’s right, this little vision produced 194,200 food items of donation to help the less fortunate!

What’s even better?

Friends and Franchise Partners Abe and Danika from North Meridian Fit Body in Idaho took 1st place with 30,899 items donated. 

We are grateful for the massive contribution!

Looking ahead to 2025, with your help, we know can do better though with our target of donating over ¼ million mark.

Today’s message?

Big things start small. So get to starting!

Make it a GREAT week!

This past weekend was fulfilling as my business partners, Bedros, Jay Redman and I put on a Legacy Tribe Meet-Up event.

Legacy Tribe is a stand-alone business development coaching program. It is also a program that introduces entrepreneurs to our Fit Body Boot Camp ownership opportunity.

Saturday’s meet-up was an action-packed day of presentations.

It was a great way to connect, learn, and share leadership business development strategies to grow the group’s income, impact, and legacy.

Bedros, founder of Fit Body, gave a great keynote on happiness and 1 thing he said struck me.

“God is an Amazing Personal Trainer.”

I was confused at first.

However,  it made sense once he elaborated. 

Most time people pray to God asking for success and strength to push through the hard things that life can bring.

But here’s the issue.

Upon asking for strength, many times as humans we are surprised & confused at the resistance he puts in our way as a response.

B’s question was to ask yourself this:

Should you really be surprised?

Think about it. 

If you were to ask your trainer for more strength, a leaner physique, visible abs, and bigger biceps.

Guess what?

Any good personal trainer is going to put weight, and resistance into your program; and not comfort (sugar, pizza, desserts) in your way.

After all, resistance is how we get stronger in the gym and in life.

My message today?

Adversity & resistance are your advantages.

Take the weight God puts in your way and use it to become stronger so that you can create more income, impact, and legacy!

Make it a GREAT week!

On October 1, my wife Tatiana and I transferred our last Fit Body Boot Camp location in Mission Viejo, California to our friend and former Fit Body client Melissa.

The main reason was so I could spend even more time leading the Fit Body brand.

Taking a look back at the experience.

Fit Body ownership was a journey we started in November of 2012 with our first location.

At the time, we didn’t know what we were doing.

However, we knew we wanted to fulfill our mission of Inspiring Fitness and Changing Lives Every Day!

Fast forward 12 years, and it’s been quite the ride.

We learned and grew so much with the experience.

Then in 2018, Bedros, Founder of Fit Body, recruited me to lead the brand.

While our ownership chapter has ended, the new chapter of Fit Body’s growth will be unprecedented.

I’m grateful for you to be on this journey with our, Franchise Partners, coaches, and brand. 

Today’s message, I have included my farewell to our clients. 

I hope it inspires you to go after your dreams which is my message today.

As heaven knows, if I can do it.

YOU CAN TOO!

Make it a GREAT week!

My brother Barrett, who is my Executive Director of Coaching for Fit Body and I did training in Scottsdale, Arizona a couple of weeks ago.

We were there to deliver for a friend of ours who is a mega social media influencer and entrepreneur.

Just before the training started, I realized I forgot to pack gum so went across the street to the gas station.

I haven’t been to a gas station in a couple of years since getting a Tesla Model 3. 

So I went to grab my gum and then scanned the store for Barrett’s fancy sparkling water. Lol 

For as long as the eye could see, the store was lined with sugar and processed foods. 

No exaggeration here.

That’s right.

The entire store was packed with the ingredients for a major health crisis.

Then it hit me.

In the words of RFK – we need to make America healthy again.

Why?

Chronic disease and obesity are rampant due to processed food and a lack of exercise.

Yes, the work we do here at Fit Body Boot Camp is meaningful.

Lots of people are counting on us.

The good news?

Fit Body’s mission is to Inspire Fitness and Change Lives.

The best part?

My team and I want you to join our mission.

After all, the world needs us now more than ever.

Make it a GREAT week and Happy Thanksgiving!

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!
