In this episode of the podcast, I reflect on my most recent theater production before getting into a discussion about time management and the importance of prioritizing the things that are most important to you. We also discuss taking responsibility for your actions, and refusing to make excuses. Notes: 00:00-01:27 A Request for Feedback …
Podcast: Real Person | Real Needs
#podcast #RealPersonRealNeeds #actingrealtor In this episode, I ask for your help. I’m thinking about changing the title of the podcast. Over the course of the last 16 months, the podcast has evolved in ways I couldn’t have anticipated, and in order to clearly communicate to the world what to expect when tuning in, I think …
#podcast #RealPersonRealNeeds
Things have been a little insane over the course of the last two weeks. Previously on the Real Person | Real Needs podcast, I mentioned that my wife and I recently were able to get pre-approved for a mortgage after over 6 years of being trapped in rental world. I thought that working in real estate would make buying a house a little easier. I WAS WRONG!
#Podcast #RealPersonRealNeeds Since we last gathered on the podcast, I performed in my very first cabaret on Valentine’s Day as part of Season 6 of the New Voices Cabaret. As far as I’m concerned the night was a rousing success. Aside from a flubbed lyric here and there, the crowd genuinely seemed to enjoy my …
On this episode, I share how self-employment and chasing your dreams can be an emotional roller-coaster. It certainly isn’t for everyone and frankly some days I wonder if it’s even for me! But in the midst of all of the chaos and uncertainty, God is faithful to teach me important lessons and let the clouds …
I’ve had several auditions over the last few weeks. Some went well, others were just okay. But what is important to me is that I keep lining them up, preparing, and doing my best, come what may. I decided to document my recent experiences. So here’s your opportunity to know what it’s like to be …
This past week I spent more time in the mall than I care to admit. No, I wasn’t doing Christmas shopping. Actually, I was turning the tables and making the mall work for me. You see, when you work in Real Estate, there are certain times in the year where things tend to slow down. Typically the end of summer right before the school year, and as the holidays approach. So being self-employed, you try to find creative ways to make some extra money around the holidays. What brought me to the mall was the prestigious opportunity of performing… market research.
As you know, I have always made a concerted effort to be authentic. So, to be honest, recently I have felt unsure with the identity of this podcast. Though I think the podcast content has been valuable to many people, I feel a bit guilty that it has, at times, been haphazard in its delivery. …
#podcast #documentary #RealPersonRealNeeds In this experimental episode, I bring you along with me to experience what it’s like to be a Realtor by day and a rock-star by night. By including music beds and actual audio from the night in question, I hope to create an immersive experience for the listener to understand this one aspect …
This is probably one of the most controversial things I’ve ever done. No doubt the things I say in this episode are polarizing. I will make enemies but I will also be applauded by the few who dare to speak up and speak out. The state of our political system has driven this country to the brink and I will not stand for it any longer. Will you stand with me for integrity, authenticity, and generosity in the midst of a corrupt, deceitful and greedy generation? If you’ve been an avid listener of this podcast, be forewarned…. $#!+@ just got REAL.
#money #RealPersonRealNeeds #podcast Many aspiring entrepreneurs motivate themselves by envisioning the extravagant life that awaits them if they succeed. Driving expensive cars, living in luxurious estates, and having grapes peeled for them. It’s the American Dream! But have we gotten it all wrong? Perhaps there is more to life than making tons of money so that we can …
#RealPersonRealNeeds #podcast Before you started pursuing your dreams, you were probably preoccupied with thoughts of what it would be like. If you’re like me, you would waste your time daydreaming about it and come home from work miserable and unable to be there mentally and emotionally for your family. Once you start pursuing your passion, it …
“I would have it inscribed on the curtains of your bed and the walls of your chamber: ‘If you do not rise early you can make progress in nothing.’” ~William Pitt Chatham
#RealPersonRealNeeds #podcast
I love sleep. LOVE IT! But I am realizing more and more that I need to apply myself and get up early if I want to accomplish my goals each day. More importantly than getting up early, is using the time you have in the morning to get yourself ready mentally, spiritually, and physically for the day ahead.
“Taking complete ownership of your outcomes by holding no one but yourself responsible for them is the most powerful thing you can do to drive your success.” – Gary Keller When things don’t go our way we are faced with two options, either take ownership of the outcome, learn from the experience and move on, or sit and …
