EP056: 3 Big Lessons In Creating A Fulfilling Business, Relationships And Life Jul 20, 2018

Show notes

I have been in the gym business for almost a decade in a half. After reflecting deeply on where I am right now, I realized that there are some key principles and lessons (that I've learned along the way) that are crucial to not only building your vision long-term, but also to enjoying the journey along the way. Some of the lessons come in the realm of personal mindset. Others come from creating deeper connections with others and helping people win. While others are actionable leadership strategies that you can implement into your business. This week I explore them all. IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: => Why doing fulfilling work and the people you’re doing it with are the secret to long-term success and happiness => Why I spend 10-15 hours a week meeting people for breakfast, lunch and dinner — and how it has helped me create a super network => What “listen to yourself less and talk to yourself more” means, and how this concept is a game changer when it comes to taking action on your purpose rather than holding back because of your fears => How every person has a sign on their forehead that says _______ and how this is the secret to engagement, connection, and improving results with your team and clients => The 3 levels of conscious leadership and living and how to go from one that is holding you back, to one that is empowering you to live your best life => How your expectations shape happiness and unhappiness in life. I share the happiness equation => Why going from “to me” to “by me” is the key to creating meaningful work and relationships => How building from fear, even if you build success, will make you more afraid of losing it, all. I'll also teach you how to change => Why you might be creating from scarcity instead of abundance and how to build a legacy => How the only way to create the greatest work is through love, not fear LINKS AND RESOURCES: Vigor Ground Fitness and Performance: www.vigorgroundfitness.com Vigor Life Podcast (iTunes): https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/vigor-life-podcast/id1180256583?mt=2 Luka Hocevar YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ29YcBh-g6onRujX3wD_XA?view_as=subscriber Luka Hocevar Instagram: www.instagram.com/lukahocevar/ Thanks so much for joining me this week.

Show notes

Do you believe that you’re a coach? Do you believe becoming a better coach would help you improve your business, family, profits, and lifestyle – not to mention how much you enjoy what you do? I certainly do, and it’s at the foundation of all my businesses. This time around I sit down with my friend and one of the people that’s influenced me more than anyone else — to become the greatest coach I can be — Training for Warriors founder, Martin Rooney. After hosting the Coaching Greatness course at Vigor Ground we dove into principles of personal growth and becoming a great coach and fulfilling your potential in every area of life. IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: Why Martin loves coming out to Seattle and the lesson you must learn to become a super connector as well as super connected How flying in a helicopter around Seattle turned from something with fear associated to it into an amazing experience The secret ingredient missing in most businesses and one that no one taught you about in school Listening to yourself is killing your dreams and what you should do about it 3 principles of coaching greatness and why you’ll never fulfill your potential without applying them Why you should travel more and make a focused effort to connect with people you want to learn from What’s difficult is scarce and what’s scarce is valuable; why growing your business is simple and learning this lesson will give you a competitive advantage How to create a business that is different and unique based on what will stand the test of time (even if the internet goes down and there’s no more social media) LINKS AND RESOURCES: Training For Warriors: http://www.trainingforwarriors.com/ Coaching Greatness Course: https://www.trainingforwarriors.com/coaching-greatness/ Martin Rooney Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themartinrooney/ Vigor Ground Fitness and Performance: http://www.vigorgroundfitness.com/ Vigor Life Podcast (iTunes): https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/vigor-life-podcast/id1180256583?mt=2 Luka Hocevar YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ29YcBh-g6onRujX3wD_XA?view_as=subscriber Luka Hocevar Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lukahocevar/ Thanks so much for joining me this week.

EP051: The 4 Things You Must Address To Change Your Body That Few Coaches Talk About May 20, 2018

Show notes

It’s important for information/content to be produced that helps people physically transform. Yet, the X’s and O’s of “this vs. that food” isn’t helping people create meaningful change. A fact proven by statistics. Because of this I wanted to start (and continue) producing episodes that dig deeper into the reasons WHY people are having trouble changing their body; while creating awareness, insight, as well as actionable “next steps” around coaching conversations that aren’t often had. This episode is part one of a two part series where I dive into that strategies that we deploy at Vigor Ground (on a daily basis) to help them successfully move towards their goals—and keep those results long-term. IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: => Why knowing the X’s and O’s of nutrition will give you knowledge, but won't facilitate your transformation => Why creating goals without “gravity” will ultimately leads to a rollercoaster of weight loss and weight gain (or lack of consistency in ANY other area of life) => How Identity and Values connect with your Goals to create the ultimate motivation— without the IVG method you’ll find yourself in a constant cycle of “lack of motivation” => How to use stress the RIGHT way and always progress while finding the “sweet spot” (most programs get this wrong and make people get stuck with their results even though they are working hard) => What balance really looks like in a real world example of someone who has had success with a body transformation => How to make sure you’re getting what you want out of your program (and not someone else’s goals!) => What deceptive messages are and why knowing what food to eat won’t help if you don’t figure this out and break the loop => Why you shouldn't try to eliminate bad habits, but rather work on __________ (science shows this works MUCH better) => What your day is really like and how to find the most powerful insights to own your day, and your transformation LINKS AND RESOURCES: Vigor Ground Fitness and Performance: www.VigorGroundFitness.com Vigor Life Podcast: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/vigor-life-podcast/id1180256583?mt=2 Luka Hocevar YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ29YcBh-g6onRujX3wD_XA?view_as=subscriber Luka Hocevar Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lukahocevar/
