My husband, Dave, has spent the past 15 years transforming his life, moving from "praying for God to take his life" to living a joyful life of being committed to excellence.  He was always good at action, but still he was unable to connect who he knew he was to who he was actually able to BE. While he never felt he had lost his voice, he knew he was living far below his potential, and he was really frustrated. He had been rationalizing his frustration by saying "when I die, then I will be able to live my full potential." Clinging to hope kept him going until he found the piece he was missing.

For Dave, the first step to connecting with his power began with fueling his body with good nutrition. He quotes Og Mandino in scroll #2, "when I really love myself, I'll inspect everything that goes into my body." This gave him the stamina on a daily basis to be consistent in his search for the next step, whcih for Dave, was being Open to new ideas--learing principles around the mental side of action. Admittedly, he is naturally "hard to crack," but like T. Harv Eker, he came to a point of deciding whether he wanted to be "really hokey and really rich or really rich and really broke." He was finally at a point where he was ready, and when the student is ready, the teacher appears.

Just a few nuggets from this show:

"There has to be a drive to be more than who you currently are."

"I immersed myself in the thing that I wasn't!"

"Your number one priority is to figure out how do I start to create that confidence in myself."

"Knowing that this life is not all there is. Working toward something greater is what keeps me going. We are eternal in nature, and there are things we can do to invest our time in that will serve us long term. What are those things?"
