Blindly following others or the norms of the society will disconnect you to your higher self, to who you truly are. Unwilling to submit to the norms and holding to your identity will erase the fear of being led.

Daily Battle #93: The Difference a Decade can Make Oct 12, 2020

Reflecting back from 10 years. My vision of myself and what I am today. I got out of my comfort zone, the time when I was living comfortably and I made the choice to chase my goals, the person I want to be. As I reflect on my personal journey, I saw the importance of being consistent and disciplined no matter what challenges I faced. I saw how my comfortable life was not the life I wanted, I wanted to make my own path for myself.
Staying in your own comfort zone will not enhance your capabilities. You will not develop consistency and discipline because you're in your safe place. Being consistent from the get go is not easy because it needs discipline. And having no mentor is not an excuse. Be consistent and be disciplined to get to your goals.
Reflect on yourself, who are you? Who is your true self? What are your goals? Determine this and be consistent on your own paved path. It’s not too late to start. Start now, be consistent, be disciplined, and you’re on your way to your empire.

Having an open discussion to your teammates will enrich them and it will result in a better product or system.
Following only a standard game plan will not give you the best result. Not listening to your comrade’s opinion will not improve your game plan. Being open-minded and having a healthy discussion will make your system better and your results will also improve.
Accept that there are more than one way to solve a problem. Your game plan and their game plan are both correct and you must be open minded to accept it. Listen to their opinions too and it will result in a healthy work relationship and over-all better product.

There’s a big conflict of reality of the situation and the place you want to be, your ideal scenario. You have your ideas, you have your game plan, you have the mindset and you have started it but it’s not sustained because you are not fully ready yet and it creates frustrations.

The game doesn't change, the only thing that changes is you.
Time changes a lot of things, that includes you, your day to day life, way of living, preferences, and more. But the game stays the same, the goal to win and succeed remains as the end goal.
Once you take time away, a lot of things change in your life, who you are now and your commitments.
It is important to acknowledge that you have changed but the game hasn’t. Your old approach to the game isn’t going to work because you have you and your situation has changed not the requirements of the game.
To win at the game we need to level up and change the way you approach the game.
If you execute the same approach and you don’t embrace the change in you, you will lag behind. You will not be able to keep up and play the game. Your business will reach a plateau and will not improve.
Embrace the change and better yourself at how you approach and execute your game plan. You have more experience now and have grown as an individual. If you don’t embrace it, you will face difficulty moving forward. Your goals will not be met or will take a very long time to be fulfilled.
It is very important to level up your game plan. The way you approach and execute your plans, how you organize or plan. You might also need to re-learn or refresh your knowledge about the principles of the business that you're working on.
Look closely, what areas in your life or in your business do you need to embrace the change needed for you to succeed and win the game? Pick one area in your life that you think you need to change.
In today’s episode:
Point 1 Change happens all the time, and that is normal.
Point 2 One needs to level up their game plan, the way the execute it or approach it.
Point 3 Change is part of growing.

Daily Battle #78: The Battle of Getting a Head of Your Outcomes Nov 06, 2019

On today’s episode of the Daily Battle, I am diving into the topic of traveling into the future and getting a head of your outcomes.
The other night I was on a coaching call and I was teaching one of my new clients how to plan her week. She was asking what are these weekly wins and missions.
Why is this important?
This conversation resolidifies why it is important to travel into the future and create your outcomes and walk them back to present day.
I reflect on al the times I fail to plan or even planned and didn’t follow through. It was for a number of reasons but
What are the lessons?
1. You have the power to step into the future and create the outcome
2. Our current reality has been caused by us writing or not writing out future.
3. Your resistance to plan and do this is a lack of Fatih and belief in yourself
Where are you resisting stepping into the future to create your reality?
How can you apply across all areas of your life?

Daily Battle #77: The Battle Of Playing Small Nov 06, 2019

On today’s episode of the Daily Battle, I am diving into the topic of playing small and reflecting on all the times I’ve played small and the patterns, and the stories that trigger me to play small.
How I have played small?
Body
Being
Balance
Business
Why does this matter?
It matters because we if we don’t play ALLIn and ALLOut and we have awareness that we are we will fill unfulfilled, we will say this like I am not fulfilling my potential
What is the lesson?
1. Ask ourselves what is the worst thing that could happened
2. Is what is stopping me real and worth it. Would you rather be comfortable or would rather grow
3. Who would you become if you leaned into it?
Where are you playing small?
Body
Being

Daily Battle #49: How Gary V’s Crush it helped us to grow 200%, 200%, & 126% for three straight years Mar 08, 2019

A big challenge for business owners is to generate leads that turn into new customers. A lot of them don’t t know how to use social media for their business, they are confused about Facebook ads vs. social media and what one they should use, they get into a cycle of scarcity and hustle because they fail to have the strategies, tactics, and plans to win.
About 2010, a Realator that I met in a networking group asked to come by my Gym and interview me. I said “sure but why?”
He told me he was going to video the interview and use it to promote his business. He went on to tell me that he just read this book by Gary Vanerchuck called Crush it and it inspired him to run this interview campaign.
I read that book and it was a mind shift on how to use social media and content marketing to promote my business. We went on to implement these tactics and strategies and it helped us grow over 500% in three short years.
I want to share with you the Keys to Victory using content marketing and what I learned in the book crush it.

Daily Battle #47: 4 Quick Keys to Knowing Your Numbers Mar 05, 2019

Some challenges I see with clients and business owner is knowing where their money goes, how much money they make, how much they spend, and the success of their sales and marketing efforts.
One of my first business coaches drilled into me by making me doing daily numbers in my business. He had a simple spreadsheet template that tracked revenue, marketing, sales, and retention numbers. Yearly on in our coaching relationship, he ended a call early because I didn’t go through that module. OOPS
He told me “Anthony, remember whatever you can measure you can manage.”
When I heard him say that a whole new possibility opened up.
I went a little overboard as I sometimes do.
It was a big revelation, and it taught me how to read my numbers.
I still have those spreadsheets till this day and its great to go back and look at them with my current lends.
Here are 4 Keys to Knowing Your Numbers:
Key 1: Keep It Simple, duh don’t track too much (like this guy)
Key 2: Use a Spreadsheet, shareable like Google Sheets
Key 3: Pick the 3-5 important numbers you can look at every day and get an idea of is your business is on track
Key 4: Do it Daily
Happy tracking

Daily Battle #46: How to write simple systems and dial in your team in 10 minutes a day Mar 04, 2019

Started working with a new client and one of the challenges they face is being at their bandwidth.
What I call “Operational Capacity.”
Some of the challenge and residence they face are…”It just takes to long.”
“They just don’t know where to start.”
“They have done hired in the past but it hasn’t worked out, and it became a bigger burden or one more thing to do.”
I get it, I have been there in the past.
In fact I in the last few weeks I found myself in that same position. I wanted to expand my VA’s responsibilities, but I found myself resisting and avoiding doing pulling the trigger. I felt like there was so much to do before I even took the first step. List all their new reasonabilities, document what I want to be done, how I want it done, create a way to teach them, etc.
It seemed like a lot to do and truthfully I was overwhelmed.
But then I had this revelation, "I thought why don’t I handle this like I handle my fitness and daily routine, success swinging singles. If I did that, I could write one system a day and implement it that day."
So, here are 4 Keys to write simple systems and dial in your team in less than 10 min a day.
Key 1: Pick one Area of your business, i.e., Marketing, Sales, Service, Leadership, and one thing that is broken in one of those areas to fix
Key 2: Outline the Current process and what is broken with it.
Key 3: Outline the Improved Process
Key 4: Share, Teach, and Implement

Daily Battle #45: Another Poem: The One Man Band Feb 19, 2019

The one Man Band
It’s the plan of the one man band to be as productive as he can
He plays the drums 🥁
He plays the guitar 🎸
He sings 🎙
He dances 🕺
He is the band
People look and think wow he is the man
Yes he is the man and he is as productive as he can
But he will never be the biggest band in the land because he can’t see past being as productive as he can.
Because he is just a one man band
For this is the curse of the one man band is to be as productive as he can
And that’s the sham of the one man band.

Daily Battle #44: A Poem: Walking Feb 18, 2019

Walking
Upon my walking my path will show
Even if it’s not my forever path...my permanent path...
I will walk
Along the path adversity and victory will cause me to grow.
Grow only...if I face both adversity and victory.
Because as I walk.
my path will be revealed.
It’s a matter of choice to take the turn toward my ultimate destination.
Keep walking because it’s through walking I am able to see my path.
To walk is to learn
To walk is to yearn
To walk is to choose to see
To walk is to have agency
To walk is to be
For waking I am free

On today’s episode of the Daily Battle I want to talk to you about your values and priorities. We’ll also talk about the vehicle you are driving on the road trip of your life.
What is this road trip of your life I am referring to? The road trip is your life’s path while the stops you take on your road trip are the things you are going to do and experience in your life. The people inside the car represent those on your journey with you.
Your vehicle might be a bus with a lot of people. Although, you might just have an SUV with your immediate family. It depends on your values. The actual vehicle itself is what gets you down the road, which represents the way you earn money and support your life. The fuel in the vehicle is representation of your effort and energy you put forth.

Use your time and spend your time with people you love.

Daily Battle #26: Learning to Fly Jan 08, 2019

I have been trying to figure out how to fly for many years. When I say fly I am meaning to live an extraordinary life. I have and had a good life and I am very appreciated and grateful for what I have been given. This isn’t to say my life hasn’t experienced pain, heart ace, disappointment, and failure. And I have done some shitty things over the years, I am human as we are all.
I am not sure when the search began, where the deep seeded desire to be the best version of myself and to seek that person but somewhere inside of me there is this burning desire to win.
For me winning is the measure of the man I have become. I define winning by be able to accomplish what I set out to accomplish, no matter how small.
I remember when I was a kids, I convinced the neighbor to hire me to cut his grass. When it came to edging I was out there with pruning scissors on my hands and knees meticulously. Not the most efficient use of my time but I was wanting to produce the best edge possible. Producing the best job possible was about winning and about being the best.
As I look back, I wonder where did the desire to win come from?
Are we all born with it?
Do you want to win?
Have you given up on winning?

What I didn’t expect when I started out was how much crashing it would take for me to learn to fly.
Crashing sucks, it came be defeating, it can eat at the core of who you think you are.
I share this with you and I write this so you can understand if you have crashed.
Its ok, you are not alone. I have to and so many other people have as well and are crashing this point.
My commitment is to learn to fly and it doesn’t matter how long or how much work it takes, I am going to learn to fly higher than I have ever flown.
I am going to learn to soar.

The following topics will be discussed every month:
Week 1: Leadership
Week 2: Marketing
Week 3: Sales
Week 4: Lifestyle & Personal Development
In this week’s episode:
Takeaway #1: It’s Not About the Over Preparation and PowerPoint
It’s important to have personal certainty.
Sales is about the energy that you bring into the marketplace as an individual.
What makes you competitive is when you show up when you are whole and certain with your self, family, and spirituality.
People are attracted to the truth.
The most powerful man in the marketplace is the one with the truth.
Show up with a powerful conversation.
Takeaway #2: Have a daily connection to your why
Come from your heart, not your ego.
Your family is your biggest gift.
Don’t view your family as a responsibility; they are not a weight or burden.
If you don’t get the underlying piece right, it doesn’t matter.
If you want to be a better salesman, you have to be a better man first.
Takeaway #4: Be Battle Ready
Know and acknowledge that what you bring to a conversation is energy.
Your energy is everything.
If you have lies and secrets, you are using energy to cover those.
If you aren’t not connected with your family, those things leak energy.
Sweat every day and make sure your nutrition is on point.
Consider investing in coaching.
Nobody is served by you playing small.
Sometimes you have to walk into the void and be vulnerable.

The most successful people know when to use their mind, their emotions and when to use both.
Decide that you are going to be in control of your mind and your emotions; it’s a game changer.

Be constantly questioning yourself.
Always ask why.
Ask yourself if what you are doing is adding value to you and others.

Never give up.
There will always be ups and downs.
Focus on always learning and getting better.
Do not be afraid of risks.
Follow your heart, not your mind.
Make it happen.
You can have all the knowledge in the world, but if you don’t use it’s worthless.

Daily Battle #21: Happiness is Loving Yourself First Then Sharing that Love and Happiness with Others Jul 22, 2018

“If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things.”
~Albert Einstein~
I’d have you consider the goals we set for ourselves force us to grow and become better and it’s one of the core ways we experience true happiness.
On the other side, I’d have you reflect on the times you didn’t set goals or try to become better... did you feel joy and happiness?
I mean did you walk, embody, and radiant happiness?
Ya... you might of “good” aka a absence of pain and heightened happinesses.
I’ve experienced putting and tying my happiness in other people or thing...
It doesn’t last and it can be an empty place....
Tying it to goals is tying it to yourself...
You are your leader...and you decide what to participate in or not...

Daily Battle #20: You Have Everything You Need to Take the First Step Jul 21, 2018

“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.”
~Arthur Ashe ~
We tend to see where we are and where we want to go and we see the gap between who and where we are an say I can’t do that...
That is not me....
So we don’t take any action...
We avoid that we want to go over there...
We avoid the work necessary to take us on that journey....
The reality is we are where we are... we have what we have... and we can do what we can do...and all of that is enough...
We have everything we need to start down that journey...
We just need to take the first step....
And the next step... and the next... so on and so on....
Every step we take gives us what we need to take the next step....
What step can you take today to move along on your journey?

Daily Battle #16: The Clarity of Your Vision determines The Clarity of Your Focus Jul 11, 2018

The Clarity of Your Vision determines The Clarity of Your Focus.
Here is what I mean by this...
If you find yourself indecisive 🤷‍♂️....unsure...
Most likely you are not clear on where you are going. Aka your vision
If we take an everyday example as going out with a group of friends and there is no set plan... we’ve all experienced the situation of everyone asking “where do you want to go?”
Sit back as I dig into how this applies to your life and creating the business you want ....

Daily Battle #15: Meeting a Master Go Giver Jul 09, 2018

Daily Battle #14: Own Your Voice Jul 08, 2018

I went dark for a bit and I have to admit, I was thrown off my cadence by a conversation I had with a local business coach. We met through the chamber via a chamber member recommending I connect. We had a conversation and he made some recommendations around some of the things I was doing. One of which was this daily battle podcast and to tone it down, etc.
See, I truly appreciate his time and I know his intentions are in the right place, and a few of his suggestions I will implement but I have to own my voice…
So, Join me today as I explain why? ....

Daily Battle #13: Leaders Don’t Let things burn Jun 29, 2018

Recently there has been some turmoil happening in my extended family and there have been a few times I have felt compelled to take a stand for what is right, to be the calming force, to roar when it needed it, to stand at the head of the table. At the end of the day its my responsibility to lead my family away from the fire and not let things burn. I would be out of integrity of who “I am” to stand by and allow it to happen.
The distinction that I am grateful to be given in the recent past is I am leader not a savior.
How does this relate to running a business?
When you run a small business your team is like a small family, your micro movement you are leading, those people are believing in you and following you.
And you’ll have instances where the interpersonal interactions, ie conflict, the good times, the bonds will feel like family but its your job as the leader to maintain the culture or even fix the culture.

The Single Best Habit for Success in Your Business
One of the single best habits, I started many years to mange the successful in my business was the tracking of daily numbers. Daily numbers for gross, income detail, expenses, income calls, sales appointments, and sign ups.

As I did this it reminded me the importance of taking daily numbers within your business and measuring where you are and where you need to go…
On today’s episode, I dig deep and rant about how this can be the single most important habit for the success of your business.

Daily Battle #9: Systems Are The Rule Book of Your Business Jun 26, 2018

As Entreprenuers we are natural creators, natural builders, natural innovators if we weren't we wouldn't be doing what we are doing. It's why we can't work for anyone...becuase when we see something broken, an opportunity, or anything that will give the business an edge feel complled to create change...and blaze new trails...
That's why we need systems, they are the rules of our business, the rules of the game...just like in football.. there are sidelines...endzones...what we can and can't do...
The entreprenuer types can see short cuts...the hacks...that have not yet been defined...they want to break the rules...and "think outside of the box"...
But we need to have balance and operate by the tried and true rules that have proven results...and that avoid injury...
just like the no head to head contact rule in the NFL...its there for the players benefit...because the price to pay is too great...
Where do you need to stop breaking the rules? What rule do you need to create to avoid a serious injury?

Daily Battle #8: Figuring Out How to Do it Half Right vs Just Doing it Half Wrong Jun 25, 2018

Today, I dig deep into this and we talk about how or what you can do to just move forward...

The last couple of days, I have felt a bit out of a groove, I have felt not as on fire as before I left for the Warrior Wealth Confrence and definatily not as on fire as when I was at the confrence. And I journaled these few lines, I was compelled to send my boys a voice message, my wife a voice message, my mom a voice message, and my sisters a voice message. My experience was once I was done I felt the fire...
