ANYBODY CAN DO ANYTHING.

What do you think when you read that?
"How can that be? Easy for you to say. It's too good to be true. But what about "hurdle A" or "obstacle B"? I don't know how to get started on the right path."

But what if you could see the proof? What if there were countless examples of people who couldn't believe it either, but ultimately overcame hurdle A and obstacle B? How did they do it, you might ask, and how did they get started? Something or someone set them on the right path. And for a lot of people, our guest Preston Wilson was that someone.

He has used his experience as a collegiate track and field athlete performing at the highest levels to develop coaching programs and e-books that lay out the path before you. All you have to do is follow it and stay on it to start seeing the results you've been dreaming of, guaranteed. He specializes in athleticism, but he also illustrates how the same principles can be applied in all facets of life.

Show highlights:
- Ups and downs of college athletics
- The importance of a great mentor
- Digging yourself out of a rut
- Confidence hack for when trying something new or difficult
- Lifelong learning

This week's show is packed full of tenacity tactics! I'm honored to introduce James Smith, two-time BCS National Champion, former Cincinnati Bengals player, husband & father, and now insurance aficionado. He was kind enough to take us through his journey, share his successes, and impart some of the lessons he learned along the way.
Show highlights:

- Student-athlete "walk-on" mentality
- The positive impact of youth sports
- Turning nothing into something
- Finding your uniqueness
- Trial & error
- Calling an audible - going to plan B (or sometimes plan C and beyond)
- The virtue of being vulnerable

What's the difference between "good" and "GREAT"? Why do some just exist while others DOMINATE? Well I'll tell you, spoiler alert, GRIT is a huge factor. But if you really want to know how it factors in and what other components also contribute to greatness, then you are in luck because our special guest gets into that and more in this action-packed interview.

In this episode we welcome Beau Beery to the show. Beau is a commercial realtor, realty advisor, author, keynote speaker, and EXPERT in Multi-Family assets. He provides clients and the public with an unrivaled amount of information and resources on the subject, thereby providing tremendous value before a transaction is ever made and even before a client relationship is established.

After any interaction do you ever stop and think to yourself "Did I make the most out of that situation"? Or when given a difficult choice, do you choose to filter and control your emotions to make a positive impact, or do you let your emotions take charge?

If you're like me, you know you could do better. Whether its at work, at home, or a random encounter with a stranger, every encounter is potentially meaningful. And to say that the cumulative effect of the countless encounters throughout your life is profound, would be an understatement.

When the interactions are less than ideal, do you take the time to review your actions and try to improve? What went wrong? For me, sometimes it can feel like a personal attack, or like I have something to prove, or maybe just the wrath of a bad day on an undeserving victim. Whatever the case may be, it takes great VIGILANCE to look for the root of these actions from within, check the ego, and make amends when necessary.

Once you gain that self-awareness and understand where your emotions and actions are coming from, then you can lead by example. Not everyone has the VALOR to be vulnerable, but it can be learned with practice, and that vulnerability translates to being relatable, which maximizes positive impact.

This is just one of the several thought-provoking topics we discuss with good friend and mentor Erik Anderson, Vice President and Visionary, of McLeod General Trades and Division 10 Distributors.

What is holding you back? What are you afraid of? What great thing would you go out and accomplish if you could harness that fear and turn it into fuel to drive you and your mission forward? We discuss exactly that with a man who is no stranger to risk... or reward.

Fear is just an emotion, and all emotions are just our brain's indicators that action is required. The trick is training yourself to remove the emotion and hone in on the action.

Nick Banks offers insight into how he harnessed his fear at pivotal turning points to jumpstart his career, even in the face of the great recession.

Nick is a successful real estate entrepreneur, developer, industry disruptor, family man, friend, and now Principal and Managing Director for Avison Young, a global CRE firm, overseeing the greater Gainesville and North Florida markets.
