Never Be Afraid - ACT!

Fear is one of the most crippling, and imaginary forces that we deal with in daily situations.

Overcoming fear is best done by acting!

In the podcast I share Four Principles to overcome fear:

1. Realize the Foolishness of Fear
2. Break your fear into small bites so you can overcome it.
3. Ask Others To Help You.
4. JUMP!

Quotes:

"Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold." ~Hellen Keller

"Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit at home and think about it. Go out and get busy." ~Dale Carnegie

"Thinking will not overcome fear, but action will." ~W. Clement Stone

"Courage is being afraid, but saddling up anyway." ~John Wayne

There are several things you need to be a Hero, and even more so to be a Super Hero!

1. A Lair - Not a Study or Man Cave, and heck no not a library. A Lair!
2. A Cape - Although I agree with The Incredibles - it's bound to get caught on something.
3. Great Back Ground Music!  This is actually the easiest part now with an iPod or Smart Phone!
4. Secret Identity!

Really all you have to do is to take action by helping those that around you that can't help you in return!

That's what the Lone Ranger did! He helped people to save the farm, save the cattle, rescue the rancher's daughter, ETC, ETC, and so on!!! He did what it took to help the less fortunate out... and didn't wait around for a pat on the back!

If you are looking for a pat on the back every time you do something good for someone, your heart isn't in the Hero Business! You are in the Hireling Business!

Take a quick listen to this week's podcast to find out how you can be a Hero to those around you!

It's true! This Mindset is one of the reasons some people can do a good job and never win the championship! Some can fight a good fight, but lose the war! This is one mindset that helps you remove your ego, and when you do it right, win the friends and influencers that you so long for.

Everyone wants to be Champion, or even better, more than a Champion! How do you become someone so valuable that everyone wants you on their team... be the someone who helps the team win!

QUOTES:

"Teamwork is so important that it is virtually impossible for you to reach the heights of your capabilities or make the money that you want without becoming very good at it. ~Brian Tracy

"Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships. ~Michael Jordan

"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." ~Helen Keller

"Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results." ~Andrew Carnegie

"Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success." ~Henry Ford

The only real way to find yourself is to lose yourself... lose yourself in serving other people!

Much of this podcast is based off of the story of the The Good Samaritan! Three people came by the man in the story who had been robbed: A Priest, a Levite, and a Samaritan.

It's called the Story of The Good Samaritan because to see kindness from a Samaritan was never expected, yet he did serve the man who had been robbed, a man who could not do anything in return for him.

To everyone out there, be the Good Samaritan and change your mindset to serve other people with the right heart!

Here are some of the quotes that I used today... and few others. I didn't use it but love the Emerson quote the best!

“No one has ever become poor by giving.”
― Anne Frank, diary of Anne Frank

“The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.”
― Charles Dickens

“You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you.”
― John Bunyan

“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.”
― Mahatma Gandhi

 
“Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.”
― Martin Luther King Jr.

“The first question which the priest and the Levite asked was: 'If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?' But...the good Samaritan reversed the question: 'If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?”
― Martin Luther King Jr.

1510 - Chris Vaughn Podcast - The Only Way To Save Your Heart

If you want to watch a reply of our Parenting Webinar just click on the link

3 Timeless Parenting Principles for Today's Generation

There really is only one way to save your heart from heartache and bitterness.

Everyone suffers from injustice and wrong but this is the only way to let it not eat you alive!

"Forgiveness doesn't excuse their behavior; forgiveness their behavior from destroying your heart!"

Luke 23:34 ESV
And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” And they cast lots to divide his garments.

Luke 6:37-38 ESV
Judging Others “Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

1509 - Chris Vaughn Podcast - 09 - You May Hate This... But You Have To Do It To Yourself

Never Be Complacent

This is the one thing we all want to require of others but unless you change your mindset and require it of yourself, you will never be the better person you can be!

I've called this the "quote podcast" as I've used more quotes on this podcast than I think I ever have.

In this episode, I cover three areas where complacency can enter into your life, if you are always stretching yourself to never be complacent.

I believe you have more in you than you are aware... don't be complacent! Be the better person you can be!

I want to invite you to join us for our FREE PARENTING WEBINAR next Tuesday, June 9th at 7:00 PM called

3 Timeless Prinicples of Parenting
for Today's Generation

History and experience tell us that moral progress comes not in comfortable and complacent times, but out of trial and confusion.
~ Gerald R. Ford

After winning, most teams become individuals; most teams become complacent.
~ Lou Holtz

I think it's dangerous to think that you're successful, because then you become complacent.
~ Tommy Hilfiger

I don't want to let my guard down and feel too comfortable. If you become complacent, you start feeling entitled. I'm ready to go dig ditches if I have to. Whatever I gotta do to provide for my family. Whatever I gotta do to make sure that I do the best possible job at whatever wonderful opportunities I've been handed.
~ Mark Wahlberg

Overcoming Setbacks & Loss

Chris Vaughn Podcast 1508

Overcoming Setbacks and Loss: Everyone has them but some let those setbacks and loss determine the rest of their lives. I don't want to see that happen!

I'm not going to give tend away to that title, but you probably can figure it out. You've heard it hundreds of times on television, and you may have had to say it yourself... I have twice!

I spoke that the idea for the 13 Mindsets came out of a book I wrote: The Rules of Fool's - 13 Mindsets Successful People Avoid - if you want it you can get through Amazon.com for $0.99. Just click the previous link to be taken to the Amazon site, BUT I tell in the Podcast how to get it for free, but $0.99 is so little to investment in something that can help change your life.

Next week's podcast is  going to be fun, but one that will stretch you!

Also I'll be releasing a videocast of 'How To Overcome A Loss' - if you've never suffered a loss thank God, but you just haven't lived long enough! I can't wait to share it, and I hope it has a big impact!

Have a great week and thanks for listening!

Renew The Voice In Your Head

This podcast returns to the studio where the sound is better - THANK GOD! So I hope you enjoy it more, it was great putting it together for you!

In this episode, I deal with #6 of the 13 Mindsets. This episode is about 'Renewing The Voice in Your Head' or as I like to say it better, "WASH YOU BRAIN!"

I use two verses specifically in this episode, and actually use more in this podcast than in other, so if you aren't a believe in Jesus, look for the lesson.

Romans 12:2 (English Standard Version)
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

Look for the phrase - 'Money Comes Easy!'

Proverbs 13:20 (English Standard Version)
Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise,but the companion of fools will suffer harm.

I don't give the reference but here it is for 'the way of the trangressor is hard'

Proverbs 13:15 (English Standard Version)
Good sense wins favor, but the way of the treacherous is their ruin.

By the way - I love Proverbs 13!

I mentioned several podcast I'd like to recommend so here they are:

Zig Ziglar Podcast

Smart Passive Income with Pat Flynn

The Ray Edwards Show

Mark Hankins

Thanks for listening and I asked a question on the show today:

What are the things holding you back from who you want to be... where you want to go?

I've received some incredible response from the question earlier this week on our Facebook Page, and in fact will be doing a video in a couple of days on "Overcoming Loss" so be on the look out for it!

If You Don't Do This... NOTHING WILL WORK!

Really!

I'm excited to share #5 of The Thirteen Mindsets and there are so many things wrapped up in this podcast that affect everything else in your life.

Seriously, if you won't do this ONE THING, you will never move past where you are, to where you want to go!

Plus in the podcast, I share several reasons why it is easy to do this one thing in your life!

Also during the podcast I share several stories of from an article, 12 Successful People Who Didn't Catch a Break Until Age 40, and it's worth taking the time to read the whole article! By the way, Stan Lee, Rodney Dangerfield, and Vera Wang are all mentioned in this article, and all of them did, and those alive still do, this ONE THING!

Thanks for listening, and feel free to share the podcast with anyone you believe would benefit from it!

Thanks for the encouragement we've gotten thus far, and if you would leave a comment at the bottom of the page or send me an email at team@chrisvaughn.net

All success begins with the priorities that give you the foundation to succeed in any and all endeavors. Successful entrepreneurs, influencers, and millionaires all begin their success with one priority about all others.

I've grouped the mindsets into three different categories:

• Towards Heaven

• Towards Yourself

• Towards Others

And the 13th Mindest is required to act on the other twelve.

Thanks for taking the time to be a part of this conversation as we not only challenge each other to live a life outside of ourselves so that we can live the life of our dreams.

Remember, everything in your life can change, when you take the time to change you.
