Monday Mindset

[MM]: ½ Way Home 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: ½ Way Home

Happy Monday Mindset!

July 1 is here.

It’s the start of Q3 which means we are officially ½ way through 2024!

Where has the year gone?

The truth is that both life & business happen fast.

This is why you must lead a life of intention.

So let me ask you.

Have you made progress on your professional 2024 annual targets?

How about your personal goals for 2024?

Have you taken action to launch your passion-based business?

Have you planned the trip with your family?

What personal and business adjustments do you have to make as we look into Q3 and the latter half of the year?

In sports, the coach who can make the best ½ time adjustments dramatically increases the probability of victory.

This is what you must do as the coach of your life.

You must plan.

You must communicate.

You must take action.

But you also must reflect, debrief, and make ½ time adjustments.

Even if your first ½ of 2024 was less than ideal.

The good news is that you have a new opportunity!

After all, NOW is the time being we are ½ way home to 2025.

Let’s make it a GREAT WEEK!

[MM]: Leadership & Perspective 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: Leadership & Perspective


Happy Monday!

As the headline states, the more perspective you gain, the better leader you can become.

Even if this means being a better leader of self as your next step.

Now there are many ways to gain perspective.

Today’s lesson is about travel.

I learned this lesson in May 2004 when I enrolled in a study abroad program entering my senior year of college.

I put myself on a plane to Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Singapore.

As a result, Ive never been the same.

This week I am at it again in the United Kingdom.

Tatiana and I ventured out to London, England to attend my good friend Matt’s wedding on Saturday.

Matt’s an English bloke I met in 2007 in Orange County through a mutual friend on his world travels. 

We hit it off and have traveled the world together over the last 15+ years. 

We have journeyed from LA to New York, Brazil, Portugal, Croatia, Greece, and the list goes on.

It was extra special seeing him and his new bride Charlotte get married in England on his home turf.

It was a fantastic event although uncomfortable.

Travel always is.

The 11-hour flight, the 8-hour time difference, the hard jetlag, the small hotel living quarters, the confusion at the train station, the tough eating options, and so on.

The truth is travel is hard, it’s uncomfortable and not easy.

In the moment, many times it’s not enjoyable.

But that’s where the value lies.

It pushes you, it stretches you.

It gives you new looks at people, human nature, and life.

The experience enriches your life with time.

It provides you with perspective.

And remember:

Perspective is leadership.

Leadership is perspective.

Let’s make it a GREAT WEEK!

[MM]: Wisdom 1024 768 Bryce Henson

[MM]: Wisdom


Happy Monday!

Wisdom is something I’ve valued ever since I was a boy.

It started with my relationship with my grandma Josephine.

We became close after my family escaped my father’s addiction in 1991 and landed on her door for close to a decade through out the 90’s.

My grandma was heaven sent.

Through the challenge, our bond grew and would spend time with her every weekend through college until I graduated and moved to Los Angeles.

She would pour wisdom into me by sharing stories of her life and watching her live.

This is what inspired me to ask 6 amazing women of our Fit Body Forever program designed for mature adults 55+ to sit down with me and record a conversation.

I wanted to gain insights from their experience in the Fit Body Forever program. 

I also wanted to extract wisdom from their life via their challenges, struggles, regrets, love, priorities and values.

As such, my friends Mary, Chris, Linda, Barbie, Michelle, Sherry and I sat down 2 weeks ago and recorded a beautiful conversation that I will share in the fall when it releases.

Through the chat, I was reminded of 1 truth about life.

It is fleeting.

The tough truth is that we are both running out of time.

Tomorrow is not promised so we must live with urgency.

My message today?

Pick up the phone. 

Have that conversation that you need to.

Take the first step with your fitness.

Tell that special person you love them.

Now is the time!

Make it a great week!

[MM]: You’ll be out of it soon 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: You’ll be out of it soon

Happy Monday!

My business partner Joey sent me an email last week with the below message and thought of you.

If you’re in the storm, you’ll be out of it soon. Think calm. Poise. 

If you’re in the sun, you’ll be out of it soon. Think chaos. Prepare.

It stopped me dead in my tracks.

Why?

He is right.

No matter what is going on at the moment, you will be out of it soon.

Everything in life is temporary.

This too shall pass.

Tomorrow is not promised.

This is why we must live with urgency!

TODAY is THE DAY as you will be out of it soon!

Happy Monday, let’s make it a good week!

[MM]: Developed: Not Hired 1024 768 Bryce Henson

[MM]: Developed: Not Hired

Happy Monday!

I hope you had a productive weekend.

Mine was spent in Austin, TX as my good friend and CEO of a marketing agency called Loud Rumor flew me out to give a keynote at his event.

I spoke to a 200 person audience of Fitness Professionals full of passion!

My requested topic?

How to Hire Studio Location Managers.

I opened it up with a story of how I began as a broke and out of shape alcoholic, to becoming the CEO of an international fitness franchise.

The punchline?

Studio Managers, CEO’s, or any high level teammate are NOT hired.

They are developed.

Let me illustrate this further..

When Tatiana and I first started out with our 1st Fit Body location in 2012, I was the bookkeeper, janitor, sales/marketing guy, and coach all wrapped up into 1.

Was it pretty?

No.

But we were on fire with passion to Inspire Fitness and Change Lives!

The rest, we figured out.

It wasn’t easy.

It took many reps, sets and many years.

But we kept progressing until 1 day I developed to a point where the Founder of Fit Body Bedros Keuilian offered me the VP and then the CEO role.

This didn’t happen overnight.

It took years of development.

My message to the audience and you?

Nothing in life worth pursuing is easy.

We all start out on the ground floor.

But with some passion, grit, and willingness to put in the reps and sets.

You can transform your fitness, your profession, your business and your life.

Just remember: people are DEVELOPED not hired.

[MM]: Opportunity. Not an obligation 🇺🇸 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: Opportunity. Not an obligation 🇺🇸

Family! 🙌

Happy Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

Yes, that means it’s Murph Day.

But why?🤔

It honors the sacrifice of those beautiful souls who gave their life to protect our freedom.

After all..

Freedom is what our country stands for. 🇺🇸

Freedom is the gift that fitness gives.đź’Ş

The best part?

We have the opportunity to work on our fitness every day.🌟

This is 1 of the many reasons I am passionate about being a Fit Body Owner!

It creates freedom from depression and anxiety.

So while crushing your Murph workout.

My message today is to remember that you don’t HAVE to work out.

You GET to work out.đź’Ż

It’s an opportunity and not an obligation. 

Many souls like Michael P. Murphy, US Navy Seal paid the ultimate sacrifice so we could have this opportunity.

Please remember that today and always, which is my message.✨

Happy Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

[MM]: Own It 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM]: Own It

Happy Monday!🙌

Today’s mindset message is about leadership.✨

There’s a lot to the subject.

But at the core.

Leadership is about owning it.👊

Or in other words, taking responsibility for your actions.

Yes, the good, bad, and ugly.

To illustrate my point, I will share a story with you from last week.👇

Unexpectedly, Coach Tatiana and I received an apology letter from a former coach of ours.

He coached for us a few years ago at another location we used to lead.

Good-hearted guy but made some poor choices, became negative, dropped some balls, and then had an adverse reaction to accountability.

It wasn’t a fun situation or ending to his employment. 

It created friction for the team and clients.

Sadly, sometimes it’s how these things go in working with young teammates.

That’s the tough truth about leadership, and life.👊

To clear the air though.

Heaven knows I pulled a couple of not-so-smart moves in my mid-20s working on teams. 

So not here to cast stones.

In fact, here to do the opposite. 

It was refreshing for Tatiana to review the apology note.🙏

It was simple but effective.

He owned his actions and apologized for them with sincerity.

While it was nice to receive for us.

The biggest value was for him.🌟

He just gained perspective, growth and credibility with himself. 💥

This will serve him well in the future.

This is my leadership message today.

As a leader of self, you will make mistakes.

This is part of the growth journey.🌱

But when you do and you come to that realization..

Promptly admit, apologize and own the mistake.

When you do, you free yourself and others.

This is leadership and the best way to live.⚡️

Happy Monday!

[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!🔥

[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!

[MM]: The secret to life success 150 150 Bryce Henson

[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!
