    “Are you using your journey to grow, to inspire, to help others?”

    “The goal cannot be perfection. And because there’s no way you can know how this thing is when you’re going through it, you have to give your absolute best and let the chips fall where they may.”

I have to do what feels right.” “There’s magic and transformation when you bring like-minded, passionate people together.” “When you try to appeal to everybody, you actually end up appealing to nobody.” “All those no’s I got—some people say rejected—I just say redirected. I always thought, ‘Well, that’s okay, that’s one more no to get me closer to that yes.’” “What’s meant for us will always come to us.” “Why would I get a job making minimum wage like my friends, when I can literally make $600 in a day doing my own business?” “Create a life that you don’t want to escape from.” “No is actually one of the best things you can hear—and that is counterintuitive. The more no’s you get, the closer you get to the right yeses—the people you need to be investing in and spending time with. What you don’t want is that kind of half-hearted ‘Yeah, okay’ from someone, and you end up investing a lot of time, and it ends up being a waste for you.” “Being resilient is definitely not bouncing back. It’s choosing to move forward with courage so you can have a life filled with laughter and love and joy. And it’s getting up again and being unstoppable.” “When you shift your mindset with gratitude, it is alchemy. It really gets you focused on what you can do instead of what you can’t do. And it allows you to be in acceptance of where you are, who you are, and where you are on your journey.” “Grit when you’re working hard is good, but grit without connection is resistance. It’s clawing your way to the top. It’s hitting roadblocks, or it’s burnout. But grit with connection—that’s where we really find resilience.” “When you have a why, you can get through any how.” “I focused on the fact that they said I had a chance. There’s a 1% chance to save my leg. And so that’s what I’m going to focus on.” “A good leader is a good listener. They have compassion. They’re willing to share their struggles. They’re willing to walk alongside their team.” BOOKS MENTIONED: The One Truth: Elevate Your Mind, Unlock Your Power, Heal Your Soul by Jon Gordon (https://a.co/d/5twkXz7) The Happy Hustle Version 2.0 by Cary Jack (https://a.co/d/3wgkRcw) The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom by Don Miguel Ruiz & Janet Mills (https://a.co/d/3fk3uHM) USEFUL RESOURCES: https://amberlylago.com/ https://amberlylago.com/podcast/ https://www.instagram.com/amberlylagomotivation https://www.linkedin.com/in/amberlylago/ https://www.facebook.com/amberly.lago/ https://x.com/AmberlyLago https://www.youtube.com/@AmberlyLagoMotivation The Pace of Pain - TEDxBerkeley (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3gEfdAcO_8) True Grit and Grace: Turning Tragedy into Triumph (https://a.co/d/gKdsjVp) Joy Through the Journey: Shift Your Mindset, Embrace the Present Moment, and Cultivate Resilience Through Life's Ups and Downs (https://a.co/d/gOiq4Sj) CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://iamjohnhulen.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen X - https://x.com/johnhulen LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/

It sucks today — and that’s totally fine.” “Most of the leaders that I know have ‘visionary’ as their primary trait. They can dream big dreams, but they have no clue how to make them happen. They hate details, and I gently remind them that when it comes to vision, without the details, your vision doesn’t happen. Just remember that. It’s important because details matter.” “You are one connection away from massive success in your life and business.” “Clarity leads to competence. Competence leads to confidence. Confidence leads to influence. Influence leads to impact. And impact leads to income.” “How do we nurture a relationship long term? If you can figure that out, you will unlock so much revenue and so much potential in your business.” “Allow your customer, who has now become your client, to become one of your greatest fans. And when that person becomes one of your greatest fans, they actually do your selling for you.” “Visibility + Credibility = Profitability.” “We’re just focused on shoving more people through the front door, not taking care of the ones that we already have.” “The wealthiest people I’ve ever known have had the best relationships, and the wealth has nothing to do with money. Nothing.” “Money is a tool to take care of my family and to help other families. That’s it. That’s all it’s good for.” “There’s one person in your network right now who has access to everything you need, but you don’t know it.” “It will cost you way less money to nurture that relationship than to gain new ones.” The 3 C’s and 3 I’s Framework for Long-Term Success: Clarity → Competence → Confidence Influence → Impact → Income USEFUL RESOURCES: https://devinsizemore.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/dpsizemore/ https://www.instagram.com/dpsizemore/ https://www.facebook.com/dpsizemore https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWOKSsJYXZUu1iJSNlfZmJA Connection Expansion: You are One Connection Away from Massive Success in Your Life and Business (https://a.co/d/2GdmheB) CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://iamjohnhulen.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen X - https://x.com/johnhulen LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/

You're not going to succeed in your relationship or business if you don't take care of your body and your health.” “You cannot achieve anything different in your life if you stay the same … You gotta become the kind of person that can live that life.” “For those who are thinking that they want to head into the world of an entrepreneur, balance is a luxury that you’re never going to be able to afford. Nowhere in our lives are we ever equally balanced, but we can have harmony in the midst of what’s going on.” “The only way to teach someone is to be an example to follow — is to show by doing. Walk the walk, talk the talk.” “I see selfish as taking care of self. I don’t see it as a bad thing. I see it as a good thing, because it’s only when we take care of ourselves, it’s only when we fill our cups, it’s only when we’re happy that we can share that happiness. It’s when we’re wealthy that we can share that wealth. You can’t pour from an empty cup.” “Not doing what you don’t want to do just keeps you in that nice space, so I could give quality time to my children.” “If I’m scared, it means I need to do it. I call it my fearless muscle.” “Life is about having all kinds of experiences and feeling the emotions, and just kind of being fully in it.” “People will forget what you do. People will forget what you say, but people will never forget how you make them feel.” “What we invest in ourselves—in our mind and our growth—pays the biggest dividends.” BOOKS MENTIONED: The Power of Moments: Why Certain Experiences Have Extraordinary Impact by Chip and Dan Heath (https://a.co/d/8TmHceP) Chicken Soup for the Soul: Power Moms by Jack Canfield (https://a.co/d/dYxEhnf) The Let Them Theory: A Life-Changing Tool That Millions of People Can't Stop Talking About by Mel Robbins (https://a.co/d/hH18d0o) The Surrender Experiment: My Journey into Life’s Perfection by Michael A.

    “Sometimes the most valuable lesson you can learn is what not to do—not necessarily what to do.”

    “We’re all born with a particular set of gifts and talents—and your purpose is the combination of those gifts and your life experiences.”

    “In the traditional schooling system, we often forget our inborn genius. We try to adapt to other people’s values and expectations, and in this process, we often forget the gift we were born with.”

    “Any idea has potential.”

    “Not having preconceived ideas—and keeping everything open—sometimes creates miracles.”

    “Information is overloaded, and the longer we live, the more it becomes too much. So what you do with that information is much more important than the information itself.”

    “Imperfect action is always better than a perfect plan.”

It’s not a letter. It’s the self-understanding and satisfaction that you’ve prepared to the best of your ability.” “Life is not fair. What you do with the ‘not fair’ part is going to define you as a person.” “What you do with the ‘not fair’ part is going to define you as a person. How do you deal with adversity? How do you deal with failure, deal with hurt, with harm?” “Success is just doing the best possible job you can with what you’ve been given, with where you are.” “I used Jesus as an ATM card for 23 years ... until I started to work on myself.” “Look for the helpers. They’re the ones that get up and get moving and try to provide support, a hug, or an ear. They're not barking orders. They’re not telling people what they gotta do. They’re there to serve.” USEFUL RESOURCES: https://www.clinthurdle.com/ https://linktr.ee/clinthurdle https://www.linkedin.com/in/clinthurdle13/ https://www.instagram.com/clint.hurdle13/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61555483677175 https://x.com/ClintHurdle13?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor Hurdle-isms: Wit and Wisdom from a Lifetime in Baseball - https://a.co/d/6mBDvHI CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://iamjohnhulen.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen X - https://x.com/johnhulen LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/
