Today on the show we are talking about DETERMINATION! And we are joined by two amazing women, with inspiring stories of Determination and perseverance! Giving up on your dreams, your goals, your career, or your business is one of the most damaging things you can do to your future. Once you've thrown in the towel it's easier to do it a second time. Staying the course... completing what you start and achieving victory can have the same effect. Once you achieve a goal, you know that you can reach the next one. It builds your confidence and that can help fuel your determination. Determination is not an easy thing to have or develop. But, to be truly successful you must be able to gut it out and make it to the finish line.. no matter how hard the climb, you simply MUST reach the summit. They say that "It's always darkest before the dawn" You will never, when looking back at your life, regret trying a little bit harder, or giving it one more shot. However... you will regret not going the extra mile. When you give up or give in you might never know how truly close you were to reaching the end. Stay determined, Stay focused... You had a dream or a goal for a reason, it's important to who you are... and you deserve to reach it. QUOTES: Victory is always possible for the person who refuses to stop fighting. – Napoleon Hill Never, never, never, never give up. – Winston Churchill Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan “press on” has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race” – Calvin Coolidge Success is not final, Failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. - Winston Churchill Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. — Thomas A. Edison Never consider the possibility of failure; as long as you persist, you will be successful. – Brian Tracy LINKS: Book to Read: You Are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life by Jen Sincero - https://amzn.to/2uSZOcb Tool to Try: Freshbooks - https://www.shareasale.com/r.cfm?u=1827345&m=52946&b=593723 GUESTS: Lisa Mares - Mares Law Firm www.ldmares.biz www.mareslawfirm.com Heather Robinson www.instagram.com/heathersfantabdialifejourney/ www.facebook.com/heather.a.martin1 HOSTS: Dr. Casey Sanders 817-741-6764 https://www.facebook.com/TSCCFW/ Matt Blake 682-233-2053 www.djmattblake.com
Our Show tonight is themed around Self-Confidence! We talk about ways to build it, develop it, encourage it, and why it's important. Our guest is Greg Gideon, a Financial Advisor with Edward Jones.... and he shares some amazing information about investing and planning for the future... including dispelling some myths about investments and finances.
“Self-confidence is the first requisite to great undertakings.” Samuel Johnson “It is only necessary to have courage, for strength without self-confidence is useless.” Giacomo Casanova “Whether you think you can or think you can't, you are right.” - Henry Ford ---- Business Tip: 3 Things you should do to make your business grow. 1. Delegate 2. Find or BE a Mentor 3.

Everything else is beyond your control.” - Richard Kline “If you hear a voice within you say ' you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced” - Vincent Van Gogh SO, what is confidence? Maybe it's just being prepared and trusting that you are ready to handle the situation, knowing that failure will not kill you! Failure is a temporary situation and so is fear. Once you face your fears, whether you succeed or not, you will know that you will survive and it will be easier to do it again... whatever it is... that is how you build confidence. And being prepared and facing your fears is how you build confidence in yourself... but a true gift is using encouragement to uplift others and build their confidence. Someone who feels like they are believed in will believe in themselves... so encourage and uplift those you meet, those you lead, and those you are responsible for. Because great leaders, parents, coworkers, and friends are evident by the confidence they inspire in their people. :: Thanks for joining us on Inspired to Greatness, please check back with us each and every week for fresh tips and new guests.

Before you can achieve anything great you have to know what you want to achieve... you have to have a finish line to the race. Whether it's business, life, fitness, or whatever... to succeed you have to have a GOAL. Quotes for the Show: “All who have accomplished great things have had a great aim, have fixed their gaze on a goal which was high, one which sometimes seemed impossible.” —Orison Swett Marden “The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never score.” —Bill Copeland “All successful people have a goal. No one can get anywhere unless he knows where he wants to go and what he wants to be or do. ” —Norman Vincent Peale 4 Tips for setting POWERFUL Goals: 1. Evaluate yourself and See where you are at. 1. You have to know where you are before you can decide where you want to go. 2. Define Your Goals 1. What do you want? 2. Stop and think about it... Set out to discover what it is you want out of life 3. Make your Goals SMART: 1. The acronym S.M.A.R.T. means Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-sensitive. 4. Be Accountable, Setup Accountability. 1. Share your Goals with others. 2. They can encourage and keep you on track Book to Read: “How to Win Friends and Influence People” by Dale Carnegie / https://amzn.to/2Nar3Wb Tool to Try: Shuffle - https://app.elify.com/vbc/yn1u4o03qq?t=phq4cv Motivational Moments: “You have to set goals that are almost out of reach. If you set a goal that is attainable without much work or thought, you are stuck with something below your true talent and potential.” —Steve Garvey “Goals. There’s no telling what you can do when you get inspired by them. There’s no telling what you can do when you believe in them. And there’s no telling what will happen when you act upon them.” —Jim Rohn “I think goals should never be easy, they should force you to work, even if they are uncomfortable at the time.” —Michael Phelps There are two schools of thought on goals. Some people would say, set small, simple goals and create a plan with steps to reach those goals, others, like me, would say; Dream up goals that are so big they are scary... then find the small steps to get you there, always with the end goal in mind. Dream Big, Have Scary Goals, and Reach for the stars... failures and obstacles will come your way... I would rather fail when reaching for something incredible than something mediocre. Neither approach is wrong... the important thing is to have those goals and dreams and keep yourself moving closer to them every day with a plan. Never give up, never be scared to try, and never let someone tell you that your goals are too big. A determined person with a goal or dream and a plan is unstoppable.
