“IT’S AMAZING HOW FAR YOU CAN GO WHEN SOMEONE BELIEVES IN YOU”~~Jason MacKenzie Through what lens are you looking through? Some of us have had our perspectives altered throughout time, and through time the lens which we view our lives and purpose have become clouded. That which seems clear, becomes unclear. That which was once understood becomes questionable as our vision and sight towards the world strays away from that which we’ve imagined it to be. How do we handle life when the person we’ve married is not the person we’ve imagined them to be? How do we comprehend when the person we once loved with all our heart has chosen to leave this world at their choosing? How do we truly find ourselves when the ‘bottle’ has an influence over our false perception of self control and we become one that disappoints rather than having been disappointed? There will be times when we feel small and fool ourselves to be some sort of hero. The truth is, there is always hope to create change in self to find that inner power….. And stand tall to the true warrior that exists inside!! Jason MacKenzie shares his powerful story and his inner battles as he’s taken the dark times in his life to shed light upon others! In doing so, Jason is “serving powerfully” as he extends his heart and a hand to help other men battle in strengthening their own mental health.

“We should not fear an obsession for building a great and free life…..vision trumps reality; dreams have more weight than circumstances because circumstances are alterable with enough sweat and toil and dedication.”~~Brendon Burchard ‘The Motivation Manifesto’ As I was looking for something to speak upon, I opened up to the first part of the quote above. As I skimmed through the remainder of the book to see what I highlighted that grabbed my attention as I read through this book, I found the second part of the above piece. So, what does all this mean? The first part has to do with wanting more out of life. There are many of us that want more out of life and are afraid to openly say so. It may be material, such as cars, a home, or something as simple as a nice pair of sunglasses. The other aspect may be the freedom to travel wherever and whenever we want to. The second part of this has to deal with realizing our current circumstances do not reflect our lives as a whole. If life is great at this moment, this will not always be the case if we choose to settle once we feel we’ve reached our destination. The other aspect is that if life causes us to feel as it is against who we are and what we want, this can be altered through intentional effort to work ourselves out of the hole we’ve fallen into. The fear of obsession for wanting more for ourselves may bring guilt to us as we realize that what we have in our current situation is not satisfying. This means acknowledging that some of our friends and family who are content and lack drive might be left behind in our journey towards our dreams. It might mean that we’ve failed many times over up till now, and this could continue if we make another attempt to step away towards who we want to be. Tip: Don’t fear the obsession to work towards ‘YOUR’ dreams!! Time To Listen In To Eddie’s Solo Shot!!

  (Photo credit: MidAtlantic Photography) If I Can…You Cantu! Some of us have simple goals! Some of us have huge goals! Truth is, what if your main goal is something that you never envisioned yourself putting on top of a list……at least until your life has drastically changed. Our inspiring guest has not always been so inspiring. Due to a life altering accident while this young lady was in her teens, Vanessa Cantu never envisioned losing what brought happiness to her world…..losing any or all athletic abilities she had possessed. Most important, Vanessa had lost physical capabilities and a massive part of who she had once seen in the mirror. From drugs, to the wrong crowds, to abuse from others and self inflicted, Vanessa’s story has yet to have been fully written. The beauty of life is that once one takes hold of the pen, the ink which dries upon the blank pages have been written with purpose. To see one live life with intention is a sight which validates that “IF I CAN….YOU CANTU”. Having died twice to a month long induced coma, Vanessa’s openness to try something new at least once has actually saved her life, and the life of her daughter’s mother. As for that simple goal shared earlier which was never foreseen….is becoming more of a reality than a false hope! To Walk With Cane In One Hand….And To Hold A Daughter’s Hand In The Other. Vanessa’s story is a testament to second chances, the serving of others that have helped her, and most important is the self-worth she has tapped into which has helped not only her but has inspired others. This adaptive athlete has taken the stage to crossfit and found her calling! Be sure to connect with Vanessa on Instagram! And be sure to connect with Vanessa on Facebook!

 Just Don’t Stop. And maybe just be too damn ignorant to quit! In this latest solo shot of The Mindset Mountain Podcast, I go into a pretty tough topic for anyone who is pursuing a dream.  Something outside the norm. It has to do with the finding yourself pushed to your limits… at the very edge of a cliff of uncertainty and fear… wondering if you can keep standing. Especially when you’re feeling as if you’ve done all that you can so far within your abilities and hard work.  What does it take to be teetering on the edge… and still step back and never stop PLAYING BIGGER. I dive deep into this concept as I was reminded of some feedback Eddie and I received from a former guest and friend Vince Reed.  You’ll hear how he shared some intense feedback about the 99% of everyone else who do fall off that cliff of broken dreams. And believe me… we understand what that feels like… we’re had our fair share of staring out into the abyss.  We know how you might be caught up in constant frustration and wondering why nothing seems to go your way. You might be at the very edge yourself in this very moment.  Wondering why in the hell should you even keep trying.  This episode is here to remind you to just don’t stop. Just don’t stop on everything you’ve already started and worked so hard for in the past.  Instead stand tall in the knowledge that you won’t be one of the 99% that fall off. For if you simply keep pushing just a few inches more… the rest of your competition will vanish.  It will be you left behind, ready to play even bigger and reap the massive rewards! And you’ll hear how you can challenge yourself to be too ignorant to quit and secure yourself in a position of still standing tall for your success. Dig into this latest solo shot to fire up your Monday Mojo! Gratitude is the Attitude that Gives Our Dreams Altitude! Jason “J-Boom” Legaard  Time to listen in!

Destroying The Poverty Mindset! “Playing it safe is not commendable, avoiding risk is not to be rewarded, and living out of fear of what others will think–with their approval and disapproval–should not be what motivates us!”~~T.D. Jakes (He-Motions) The above quote from one of my favorite book, ‘He-Motions’, is in reference to Mathew 25:14-29. Whether you follow the Bible or not, this should hold true no matter how you look at life. Are you hiding your talent in the ground for safe keeping? We are given gifts and blessings in many ways. Examples might be parenting a child, having a job, having a roof over our heads which we take for granted. How about having certain skillsets in life whether it be speaking, writing, communicating, or even running equipment. Having a ‘poverty mindset’ forbids us to see and acknowledge any blessings we’ve been gifted. This mindset keeps us distant from having any gratitude towards the beauties of our lives. So how do we overcome such a mindset, that of no appreciation for life or a drive to improve and grow? It’s time to listen in as Eddie shares his thoughts in destroying one’s poverty mindset, which happens to be a continuous action throughout our lives. It’s not about one solution….it’s about filling up our toolbox to handle various circumstances in life that tend to sway us from a life filled with gratitude, appreciation, and a rich heart!
