A friend sent me this excellent article, which I agree with 100%.

It's a must-read, especially if you have a job.

Doesn't matter it it's a desk job or manual-labor job.

This is the first time I’ve read anything remotely close to this when it...

Before getting a new car, say a red Corvette, you've probably done some research.

And then, all of a sudden, you start seeing that exact same make and model of vehicle everywhere you go.

Right?

This happens thanks to your brain's awesome Reticular...

What's the # 1 skill of most successful people?

Are they smarter than everyone else?

Do they know tricks and shortcuts?

Have they mastered their craft at a level no one else has?

Certainly, all of those things are critically important.

Yet, you...

What do you believe?

Seriously.

Have you ever taken the time to ponder your attitude about the world?

These are the things you trust to be true or false.

I’m not just talking spiritual beliefs, I’m talking about all of your beliefs.

"You cannot steer a stationary ship."

This quote came up in my coaching group recently.

I’d never heard it before, but the words hit me hard, especially in light of all that is happening in our world and also our great country right now.

I remember a few years back I was on an early-morning flight, couldn’t get internet, and for some reason or another, I missed emailing out that day's coaching lesson.

After we landed, and the captain said it was okay to switch my phone back...

If you ever feel frazzled, stop and ask yourself "why" you do what you do.

The answer is often the source of your stress.

In other words, what is your motivation to make life choices like:

• Arriving at school/work 15 minutes early vs. Calling in...

I've learned quite a bit since I started coaching in 1996.

Well, I used to write workouts (in middle school) for my football teammates--so I guess I've been unofficially coaching since 1985.

I've studied what is required for weight-loss success.

Today I'll give you a step-by-step lesson on an exercise that targets your glutes and hamstrings, plus it’s one of the best total-body exercises you can do.

But first, have you ever heard the phrase, “time is money?”

Truth is,...

When the titanic left the port, there was a very specific desired outcome for the people on board.

They wanted to enjoy the luxury of this incredible new boat and get to New York.

We all know what happens.

The plans of every single person on that...

Some thoughts about arguably the most powerful emotion.

Love.

If you feel it in your heart.

Feel it so strongly that it moves you deeply.

Let it out. Don't hold back. Stop assuming anything.

Tell the most important people in your world that you...

One of the biggest challenges I see many folks struggling with is what I call the "Big Balancing Act."

Balancing today's needs with your long-term vision and goals.

Let's assume I'm talking about you for a moment.

You know you need to invest in...

Today's lesson is different.

Rather than talk about the usual things, like why detox diets will only frustrate you, I'll discuss racism.

And perhaps a simple way to end it once and for all.

Sorry, but I just need to weigh in on how I feel.

One of the biggest differentiators between super-successful clients and everyone else is that the great ones keep improving.

They keep evolving their healthy habits and making things 1% better.

And they do this over and over again.

If you look at...

Are you feeling extra stressed and overwhelmed about things that usually were a breeze?

Maybe the little things you would have normally shrugged off are causing more stress and frustration than usual.

Can you relate?

The stress of life can add up...

Over the past 25+ years of coaching I've noticed a trend when it comes to unsuccessful people.

You know, the folks who set lofty goals and make big promises... yet never hit those goals.

Unsuccessful folks never quite dedicate themselves to the...

When it comes to getting healthy, choose faith over fear.

But does that mean you never get concerned or scared?

Definitely not.

In my opinion, having zero fear is a dangerous thing.

Only someone with extreme antisocial attitudes and behavior feels...

Dropping unwanted pounds is a battle.

At least two-thirds of the U.S. population is struggling with being overweight or obese.

It's especially tough if you've been overfat for a long time.

It's even more challenging when there's a global virus...

If you exercise long enough, you will come to a point where your training isn't going well.

This might be your current situation.

Especially since many globo gyms have closed, thanks to a virus, which is forcing you to get creative and train at...

Ever notice if your day gets started off rough, it often sets the tone for the rest of the day.

However, it doesn't have to be this way.

Stop trying to be perfect. Nobody is.

Stop believing that if you don't have time for a gym workout and three...

I’m going to ask you to do something a little weird right now.

Ready?

I want you to imagine your favorite, most decadent thing to eat.

Maybe it’s a too-thick wedge of double-chocolate cake chased with an ice-cold cup of almond milk.

...

When it comes to weight loss, what you do on your average day matters more than what you do on your best day.

If you want to drop unwanted bodyfat, be sure that you’re not continually spending more time thinking about what to do rather than...

I received an email from a client who is really struggling with anxiety and depression.

"Joe, I don’t know what I can look forward to."

Man, I could feel the hurt in their words.

I can say with full confidence that uncertainty weighs heavily...

Maybe you remember it.
