Your current situation is nothing more than a moment in time. Anything you want to manifest in your life you possess the power to create! That is a pretty powerful statement but it's absolutely true. Don't make the mistake of spending all of your time making plans to do something. Make a plan, do some research, then make it happen. It really doesn't matter if you suck at it for a while. How could you expect to be good at something you have not done before? Build some discipline and consistency into your life, you will learn to love it!

This podcast is unique because I am on my journey as well. I am learning with you. I can honestly say that I slightly resemble the person I used to be. God has opened doors that I have not expected. I am thrilled that my life that is beginning to flourish and bear fruit, but I'm most excited about the unknown possibilities that lie ahead!

I want to thank every guest speaker and listener that has shared their time with me. I am learning from you and I fully plan on paying it forward and sharing the gift of knowledge and mentorship! I am grateful to God for giving me a new opportunity each day I wake up to pursue the man I was created to be.  I am so very thankful to have an incredible family. My dad, mother in-law, father in-law, and all of my siblings that share conversations with me and allow me to talk through and process my thoughts. And, last but not least I want to thank my son Huck and my beautiful wife Magen. They are my why, they fuel me when I don't feel like doing something. Connecting to my why makes all of the thing I do not even feel so hard. My wife Magen offers me so much support that it doesn't even feel fair for me to receive credit for all of my accomplishments. Without these people in my life I would not be them man that I am or constantly trying to become.
I hope you learn from this to surround yourself with people that want to see you win! 

I believe that each and every one of us were created on purpose. You are not an exception to that. If you are reading this I want you to know that God has a plan for your life. The dreams that you have inside of you are well within your reach if you're willing to put in the effort that is required to obtain them!
