Hey, what's up, champions?

This is your host, Neal, and I want to welcome you back to another Fire podcast today.

Today, I'm going to talk with you about your season of preparation.

Man, That's a big topic today.

Specifically, I want to point out to you that your season of preparation today and the work that you're willing to put in today for that dream or vision or goal that you have, you're either going to pay up front or you're going to pay later with regret.

Man, that's fire.

What do I mean by that?

Well, you're either going to put the work in now, even when it feels like no one else is watching, and even when it feels like you're not producing any results but you're going to reap a harvest of success later, or you're going to delay.

And then later on when you should be reaping success, all you're going to reap is regret and disappointment.

Well, I don't want that to be you, and I know you don't either.

Man, this is a big topic.

We're going to jump in today.

I'm fired up for this, and I know you are also.

Get ready.

This is your captain speaking.

We want to let you know we've been cleared for takeoff.

We have clear skies today with no winds, so we are expecting a smooth and highly enjoyable flight.

However, should you experience some personal turbulence, don't worry as you've chosen the right airline.

As we are trained in navigating unexpected bumps, our destination today is high performance and success.

Sit back, relax, get hyped, or do whatever you do.

As we too are pumped for today's flight.

We understand you have options when you fly, and we are grateful that you have chosen to fly with us today.

We recognize by choosing to fly Nil Reyes, you are committed to growing personal development and reaching higher than you ever have before.

Enjoy today's flight, be blessed, and remember, the best is yet to come.

What's up, champion?

This is your host, Neal Reyes, and.

I want to welcome you to the Executive Perspective.

For years, I struggled to answer the question, what do you do for a living?

Why?

Because most people who ask only expect to hear one thing.

I'm an executive with a deep level of understanding of business, operations, leadership, and technology.

I'm also the president and founder of a worldwide ministry and CEO of an executive coaching and consulting firm.

My number one passion is people, and I receive significant gratitude in life from sowing into others and encouraging them as they grow to achieve their fullest potential.

If you're a high performance individual like me, or you're simply ready to take your business, leadership or inner potential to the next level.

Then strap in because I'm locked in and all in.

This is the Executive Perspective.

Hey, what's up, champions?

This is your host, Neal Reyes, and I want to welcome you back to the Executive Perspective.

Today we have a fire episode for you today.

Today I'm going to be talking with you along the lines of preparedness.

But specifically, I want to drive home the point that you either pay up front or you pay with regret.

Again, today we're talking about preparedness.

And what I mean by preparedness is, are you prepared when your big moment comes, that thing that you want so bad, that dream that you can just taste, you can see what life on the other side of that success really, truly feels like and looks like.

But when you think about that, there's a level of preparation you're going to have to show up with if you really want to taste the fruits of that labor.

You know, it's one thing to have big dreams, but if you're just living in a dream where one of these days or someday this would be nice, then you're really not putting in the work to be ready when your moment calls.

In fact, I want to take it a step further and I want to issue a challenge to you today.

This is a challenge of your mindset that if you're living for the moment where you're waiting for your big breakthrough, then it's time to shift your thoughts from waiting for it to creating it.

And I'm going to say that again because that's big right there.

It's one thing to wait for your big opportunity, it's one thing to wait for your moment in the spotlight, but it's a whole nother to pick up your future and create it.

If there's an outcome you want to see in life, then you need to get after it and create it.

And it may not turn out exactly like you pictured, or it may turn out a whole lot better, but at least you have something you're striving toward to build.

But if you don't begin to put the work in, and if you're not putting in the preparation time when you have the time, then you're going to be waiting for a day to come along that may never show up.

In other words, if you're waiting for life's big break, that may show up or that may not.

You know, life is not a game of chance.

You know, here on the executive Perspective.

And I say this in every episode we do, we have three main topics that we focus on.

We focus on leadership, business strategy, and personal development.

And as high performers, you can try to wait for life's big break, and I'm not speaking against that, or that it'll never happen.

But rather than living life and putting your success up as a game of chance, why not as a high performer, go out and start to design the future that you're hoping shows up?

You know, this is a significant thing right here, and it's.

What I refer to is that you're either gonna pay up front or you're gonna pay with regret.

You're either gonna put the work in now, ahead of time, so that when the moment shows up, you're ready for it.

You're either going to pay up front, or when your moment comes and you miss it, you're going to pay with regret.

The first point I want to take you to is that the hype feels good.

But habits, habits build greatness.

Man, that's significant right there.

Because sometimes you have a lot of hype inside you.

You know, sometimes you'll go to a personal development conference or you'll go to a motivational conference, like listen to an amazing speaker, and you'll leave that place just electric.

I mean, you'll leave there with an adrenaline high.

You're endorphins.

You have your dopamine kick while you were there, and you can't wait to the next event because that thing was life changing.

But between point A and point B, and point A being the convention you're coming out of and point B being the next event you're going to head to, however much time is between that, what are you doing with the time you have in the middle?

You know, there's the time of preparation, but there's also a time of execution.

And people who execute without preparation don't always get the desired outcomes or results they wish they'd have.

And those who simply stay in a preparation mode and prepare and prepare and prepare, but they never get out and execute.

They'll never see their dreams come to fruition either.

But I will tell you that you have to be dialed in and locked in.

You have to understand how time works within your success timeline.

You have to understand that there's a time to prepare, there's a time to build, and there's a time to execute, and there's a time to reap.

And when you do that, it's a continual cycle that plays itself over and over.

The difference is it gets bigger and bigger because your dreams get bigger, your goals get bigger.

And as your circle of friends gets bigger, and that's not always by volume or number, I'm talking about that the.

The group of friends you have, as you start hitting success and getting among the right crowds and getting in the right rooms, you start to develop friendships with people that their mindsets are greater than what you've been used to.

And when you have friends who are growing their mindset or who have mindsets greater than what you're used to, just by hanging around them, you'll find that after time, they stretch you.

They stretch you in your beliefs, they stretch you in your thinking.

They stretch you in the next big goal that you're after.

You know, those friends will never put down what you've done.

They'll never put down where you came from, and they'll never put down where you're headed.

But what they will do is they'll challenge you on where you're headed.

They'll challenge you on how fast you're going to get there.

They'll challenge you on whether or not if you're dreaming small or if you're dreaming big, but they'll also support you and they'll help you.

But it's about you making the mental shift in your mind that rather than living life and waiting on your success as a game of chance, you're gonna get out there and do the deep work and get prepared so that you're ready to when your opportunity comes.

Motivation can get you started.

That's true with anybody.

You know, so many people rely on motivation to get them started, and they rely on motivation to keep them going.

But only consistency will get you results.

I'm going to say that again.

You know, oftentimes I speak that I fully believe, but it's also because I've learned and I've experienced it that consistency is the key to success.

And if you were consistently showing up day in and day out, the things you're doing in private eventually will manifest themselves in public.

Now, when I say manifest, not trying to get all New Agey, because there's a lot of people today who have beliefs that they can manifest whatever future they want.

And I don't necessarily agree with that.

I do believe in the biblical principles because I'm a faith man, and I do believe in the biblical principles that a man shall reap that which he sows.

I do believe that where the mind goes, the man will follow.

I do believe that seed will always produce after its own kind.

But you have to be willing to do the work.

You have to be willing to sow the seeds, cultivate the ground, water the seed, and take care of that seed as it grows and produces.

And eventually you're going to have yourself a harvest.

But if you want to bring to fruition those things that are in the desires of your heart, then it's going to require some action from your part.

And action leads to preparation when the hype wears off.

In other words, when you have motivation in your heart and you're all hyped up to do this thing that you want, your habits are what you will fall back on.

I'm going to say that again.

It's not the hype or the excitement of that thing that you want to do that's going to carry you forward.

And I'm not speaking against hype.

Because you know what?

I'm hyped about the things I'm doing.

I'm hyped about this show.

I'm hyped about the rest of the podcast I get to do this week.

I consider it to be a blessing and an honor to do those things.

But hype will only carry you so far.

And you got to be cautious about relying on hype.

Because when the hype or the excitement or the motivation wears off, whether if it's because it just wanes or because you're not stoking and feeding that flame, you're not fanning the flame, or whether you're just tired and feel a little stretched or feel a little wore thin or whatever it is, and the motivation seems thin.

It's your habits that are going to be what are there for you to fall back on?

How are you showing up every single day, day in and day out?

Are you being consistent with how you live and are you being consistent with what matters to you?

Now that brings us to our first Leadership Truth Bomb of the day.

Man, I got to tell you, I really enjoy being able to drop these leadership truth bombs because they resonate with me.

They mean something to me.

And when I'm going back and editing these episodes, I go back and review those leadership truth bombs.

They're not just savvy quotes.

These are things that resonate and mean something.

So here's our first leadership truth bomb of the day.

You don't rise to the level of your hype or your motivation.

You fall to the level of your habits.

I'm going to say that again.

You don't rise to the level of the hype or your motivation.

You fall to the level of Your habits.

In other words, what are you preparing for?

What do your habits say about you?

You know, I've heard people say before that they, if they were to follow you all day long for just 24 hours, a 24 hour period, they would be able to tell you where you're going to be in your future just by studying your daily habits.

They're not looking at necessary things like mindset.

They're not looking at things like potential or things of that nature, talents.

All they're looking at is your daily habits.

What does your daily routine reveal or say about you?

Now that brings us to our second point.

This is our next point for today.

Discipline is a down payment on the future you want.

That's fire right there.

Discipline is the down payment on the future you want.

You know, motivation might get you in the game, but to keep you in the game, that's going to require some discipline.

Discipline is what keeps you going.

Discipline is what helps you show up day after day doing the work even when others can't see it, even when it feels like no one's paying attention.

It's the discipline and the consistency in the discipline that will bring the results that you want.

And every time you're sowing discipline into your future, it's like you're making a down payment on the future you desire.

You know what's not very popular nowadays?

At least I don't think it is.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I remember when I was growing up as a child, one of the things that you would hear was that there were a lot of stores that would let you buy things on layaway.

Remember layaway?

Now if that is still out there, forgive me because I just, I don't think it's that popular anymore.

But you know, when I was growing up, you know, we had parents.

My parents had grown up through generations where the idea of layaway had started and maybe it even started before them.

But I think it started with our parents and then we grew up with it.

And there were stores that would do layaway and layaway for all the people are like, what in the world's layaway?

Layaway is where you'd be able to go to a store, you'd pick out the items that you wanted.

Now I remember that even that back to school time and things like that, people would do this, but they'd go select the clothes that they wanted.

But usually it was for bigger items.

Maybe there was some furniture you wanted, or maybe there was a new washer and dryer you needed or whatever it was, but you'd go pick it out and you'd go to the store and buy it.

And what they would do is they'd hold it in the back for you and you would agree to come in every.

I don't even know how it worked fully, but maybe it was every week.

Every other week it was different.

Preach store.

But you would show up and give a little payment towards that, and then you'd come back a couple weeks later and you give a little payment towards that.

And then eventually, after enough weeks and enough payments, you had paid it off.

And guess what got to go home with you that day.

It was the thing you put on layaway.

Well, your future can't be treated like it's being put on layaway.

In other words, what I mean by that is if your thought process is that you'll put a little work in here today and then you'll come back in a couple of weeks and put a little more work in, then a couple weeks later, maybe a little more work in.

I'm not saying that you can't eventually get to where you want to be by putting your future on layaway, but if you're really going to commit to this thing you want to do, then you got to put the work in every single day.

You got to make the choice that you're going to show up for yourself big.

Because if you really want that future that you're saying is important to you, then you're going to put the work in and the discipline in that matches it.

That really backs up what you're saying on whether or not this thing is important to you or not.

Now, I'm not trying to give you tough love today, but I want to be able to help you and meet you right where the rubber meets the road.

Because here on this podcast, we have one direction we move.

I say this all the time, but our one direction that we move is forward and upward.

We're about gaining new ground.

We're high performers who come together to sow into ourselves and grow our abilities because it's important for us to connect with our best self, our best future, our best performance.

Those things matter to us and they resonate.

But in order to do that, you got to put in the deep work.

Every decision you make today, it's either going to be a deposit or it's going to be a withdrawal from your future success.

Who?

That's big right there.

I'm going to say that again.

Every decision you make today, you need to treat it that it's either A deposit or it's a withdrawal on your future success.

In other words, your decisions, they're like an ATM machine.

And you're.

Every time you make a decision, you're either putting money in the ATM and putting it towards your future success, or you're pulling money out and you're withdrawing your future success early.

That's how you have to treat it.

When you're making choices around your success, you gotta be willing to put in work now so that you can enjoy it later on.

And the more work you put in now, and with the right plan, you'll be surprised how fast your success shows up.

And you can start enjoying it sooner than you think.

Now, the other thing I want to tell you is that you'll either pay the price now.

And how do we pay that price?

We pay it in effort, but you're either going to pay that price now in effort, or you're going to pay it later and regret.

Oh, man, that speaks right there.

That is such a heavy thought that you're either going to pay it now with effort or you're going to reap it later and regret.

Man, I'm going to tell you, nobody wants to live with regret within their life.

That doesn't mean regretting or building a future where you're always living in regret, living in the past.

But what I'm saying is that your future is in your hands.

The future outcome you desire.

It's in your hands.

And while you may not be able to control every circumstance around you, you can control what you do with your time today.

And you can control the choices and decisions you make that gear you up or shape you for the future that you've already decided inside in your heart that that's the future you desire to live.

Now that brings us to our next and second leadership truth bomb of the day.

You either pay with discipline or you pay with disappointment.

I'll say that again.

You're either going to pay with discipline or you're going to pay with disappointment.

Now, that brings us to our third point of the day.

Your private habits will shape your public results.

Whoo.

That's fire right there.

Your private habits will shape your public results.

In other words, what you do in private behind closed doors, even when nobody's watching, those are the things that show up every day in public life.

I'm going to say that again.

The things that you do in private, when you do those things and you're disciplined and you're consistent, those things will show up in public whether you mean to or not.

Because it's who you are.

You know, I say this in every episode we have because I want you to at least hear it from one person every day.

And I've endeavored to be that person.

And what I want you to hear is that I believe in you, Champion.

I believe you have greatness living deep down on the inside of you.

You just have to continue to cultivate it, grow it and develop it.

And if you do those things, after a while, that thing is going to produce and show up on the outside where others can see it as well.

And they may think you're an overnight success in those areas.

But only you know the work that you put in day after day putting in the work to cultivate and develop your greatness so that others could see it as well.

And when you do that, you don't even necessarily have to try to put it on display, because it's just become who you are.

And who you are always shows up loud on the outside when it's coming from the inside out.

Man, I'm telling you, this speaks today.

Remember, your private habits will shape your public results.

You know who you are when no one's watching, man, that goes to determine what others see when the spotlight turns on.

I'm going to say that again.

Who you are when nobody's watching, that determines what others see when the spotlight turns on.

You know, if you've been called to be a content creator of some sort, maybe you're building your brand and you're trying to create videos or something.

And you got the best camera equipment, you got the best lighting, you got the best editing skills, man, you got it all.

You've even got the best outlines and the best material.

But if you're not confident speaking in front of a camera, then guess what you got to do.

You got to get in front of a camera, you got to hit record, and you got to start speaking.

And even when you don't like what's coming out on the other end, go back and study it.

Don't be rate it, but go back and study it.

Mark down what it is that you don't like, even if it's just a mental note, mark down what it is you don't like.

And as you identify what you don't like or what you want to do better, then you practice it.

And with rhythm and reputation, you do it over and over and over again.

And as you do that, eventually that thing that you saw on camera that you didn't like will begin to dissipate.

It'll begin to Be overwritten with something new.

And as it's overwritten with something new, that's the new you coming out.

That's that greatness you are cultivating on the inside of working to bring it out so that others could see.

Habits are the proof of who you're becoming.

They're not just what you're doing.

Habits are the proof of who you're becoming.

They're not just what you're doing.

Now that brings us to our third leadership truth bomb of the day.

Consistency in the dark is what earns clarity in the light.

Whoa, that's powerful right there.

Consistency in the dark is what brings clarity in the light.

You know, when I'm talking about the dark, what I'm talking about is that's when you're working, when no one else has seen you.

That's the dark work right there.

That's the deep work.

That's the stuff you're doing when the shining light is not on you.

That's you going and putting in the work because it matters to you.

And even when those around you question what you're doing or question why you're doing it, maybe they're even starting to question about the success because they're not seeing the fruits of it yet.

When you have a vision deep down inside of you, what makes the vision so strong is that you're able to see the vision come to pass long before anyone else is able to see it.

You know, I remember hearing a story about Walt Disney, and I believe it was when he was creating Disney World.

It might have been Disneyland, but I'm pretty sure it was Disney World.

If I get the story wrong, then please forgive me, but Walt Disney had a vision of what that theme park was going to look like.

But if you know the story of Walt Disney, he had cancer and he died before he was able to see it come to fruition.

And on the day of its grand opening, one of the people who were there were speaking to Mrs.

Disney, and they were interviewing her, and they said, what do you think Walt would say if he could see what this place looks like today?

And Mrs.

Disney corrected that individual and said, you need to understand it's not what Walt would think if he could see this place today.

It's because the fact that he was able to see it first is the reason why it's here today for the rest of us to see it.

Man, that's a loaded statement right there.

Now, that may not be word for word how it was said, but that's the sentiment behind it.

In Other words, what she understood and what she knew so well by being married to Mr.

Disney was that it wasn't that he wished he could see what it looked like.

It's the fact that he didn't need to be there to know exactly what it was like, because it was his vision he had deep down on the inside of him that he was able to cultivate.

He was able to grow, and he was able to develop.

And as he did that with rhythm and discipline and reputation and consistently showed up over and over again, that thing became so loud on him on the inside that he was able to bring it on the outside.

And even though it took others to build it for him, what they built wasn't something he wished he could see.

It was something that he saw long before they were able to build it.

And it was the belief in something inside him, that vision inside him, that gave them the blueprint of what to build.

Man, I'm telling you, this is significant right here.

Now, that brings us to our fourth point today.

And our fourth point is that small choices have compounding effects.

In fact, I'm going to say it more like this.

Small choices compound into major outcomes.

Oh, that's a fire way of saying that.

You know, I've talked before that where you're at today is based on the choices you made yesterday.

And where you'll be tomorrow is based on the choices you make today.

You know, if you were to be investing money today, the number one thing you want to look for when you're investing your money is you're obviously focused on the return or the rate of return.

But what determines the rate of return is the type of compounding interest you have.

In other words, how fast is that money, that investment, compounding itself because it's in the compound effects that makes it grow.

Now, sometimes you have large interest that can help it compact quickly, and sometimes it's little interest.

But even when things are small, compounding effects have a way of producing major outcomes.

It's not always the big moments in life.

It's the small moment.

Sometimes it's those repeatable actions that define your trajectory.

You know, I've said it before that if you're out on the ocean and you're in a boat, or if you're in the air and you're flying a plane, just a simple 1 degree calculation to your right or to your left can have giant outcomes in the destination you arrive at.

Now, given enough time, the longer the time or the longer the distance, that 1% degree of adjustment, that 1 degree of adjustment takes you even further off course or somewhere totally different.

Little adjustments, little tweaks make some of the biggest impacts.

And even when you don't feel like you're successfully doing that, understand that little decisions lead to compound effects.

You know, your habits may seem invisible today, but they'll be obvious in your results tomorrow.

You know, sometimes we form habits that we do day after day, and sometimes we don't think those are making earth shattering things or earth shattering results.

Sometimes it feels like, you know, is this really producing?

But the habits that you're doing today, those habits that might seem invisible.

Well, I'm going to tell you that those habits have a way of showing up in your results tomorrow.

You know, if you take someone who's trying to get in shape, for example, you know, if they've been eating little more loose than they should, in other words, they've been eating all the wrong things and now they put on some weight if they want to go get in shape.

Eating one healthy meal is not going to turn that situation around.

It's them showing up day after day, eating the right thing, doing the right thing.

And when they eat the salad or whatever healthy meal they're having today, when they weigh themselves tomorrow, it might make a difference, or it might not make a big difference at all.

But those choices, consistent choices done over and over and over throughout the day, they'll have compound effects that later on show up and tomorrow success.

Now, I'm using weight as a simple example because it's something easy for people to understand.

But sometimes it's something much bigger than that.

Sometimes it's the daily routines.

Your, your success is hidden in your daily routines.

What are those habits you're maintaining today?

Are you putting in the work that you need to?

Are you making sure you're showing up on a daily basis over and over again, doing what you need to?

Have you cultivated the habit of reviewing your goals every day?

And if you have, then maybe you need to do it every day at the beginning of the day and every day at the end of the day.

And if you're doing that, then maybe you need to also carry them around with you.

So you do it every day.

When you start your day at home, you pull them out of your wallet or your purse and you read them again during the day, and then you read them again at night when you get home.

And you keep them in front of you constantly.

And you ask yourself the question, am I moving the needle in these areas today?

Or more effectively, how am I going to endeavor to Move the needle in these today.

But the more you keep those goals in front of you, the more real they become.

And the more real those goals become to you, the more you do things to bring about those results.

And you need to start going through the exercise.

I felt led to say this.

You need to start going through the exercise.

Maybe you're already doing a good job of reviewing the goals, but maybe you need to start picturing yourself that once that goal gets accomplished or once you accomplish that vision or that dream, what does life look like for you and that future version of yourself after you've achieved that dream or that vision or those goals?

If they showed up to lunch with you today, what are the things that they would tell you?

What are the areas of encouragement that they would give you?

Are there areas that they knew you struggled with and they wanted to give you a little encouragement to tell you to keep on keeping on?

Are they going to tell you that the late nights you're doing because they understand you had a 9 to 5 and you were trying to build your dream around that?

That required sometimes you going to bed later than you wanted to, but they're telling you keep on keeping on, that it's important to take care of your body.

But right now we're in a season where you got to not, I'm saying you got to continue to take care of your body, but if you got to sacrifice a little sleep right now, or you got to stay up a little later than what you want, or maybe it's not that you stay up later, but maybe you just close out your evening the way you intended.

You know, maybe you want to spend your evening playing video games or you wanted to turn around and spend it watching TV or reading a book.

And I'm talking like a, you know, like a fantasy book or a thriller or something like that.

But maybe what they're telling you is, hey, future self says, hey, we're going to have plenty of time for that.

In fact, if you put the work in now, you know how much time we like to spend on the beach.

Well, later on we're going to be able to go on the beach and choose any beach we want because we're so successful and read as many books as we want on those vacations.

But right now, right now we got to put in some work.

And even though it feels like nothing's happening for us, you just keep on keeping on.

Because on the other side of this, holy smokes, it turned out even better than we thought, man, those goals that we had, we smashed those goals.

That vision and dream we had, that thing led to another vision, another dream.

And when we finished the first one and then jumped on the second one, we accomplished that thing in record time.

And then we moved on to the third dream, and then the fourth and the fifth, and now we're on the tenth dream.

And I got to tell you, each one just keeps getting louder and louder, but we're also knocking it out faster and faster because we have momentum on our side.

Man, those are the types of exercises you need to do with yourself, that you walk yourself through.

Now, that may be foreign to you, but remember, I'm not just a podcast host.

I am also an advanced mindset coach.

This is something I do professionally where I help people with this, and as I help people with this, I help them to shift their mindsets.

It's what I've coined with my other clients, and I say it even in my intro.

And I actually have other podcasts directed to this.

It's what I've coined as jumping into the weight room of the mind.

Just like there's a weight room for the physical body, there's a weight room of the mind.

And when you're learning to stretch the way you think, or to transform or change the way you think, or to grow your mindset to think and do different things in new ways, well, sometimes you got to get in the weight room of the mind and you got to move some weight around.

You got to push against and push through the resistance.

And as you do that on a daily basis, over and over again, with the right things, the right exercises, you can grow yourself into someone that you never thought you could become.

You may have had an idea that you could be greater than what you're currently living today, but connecting with who you truly can become, I'm telling you, that's wide open in front of you, and it's wide open for you to surprise yourself.

These are powerful things.

Now that's going to bring us to our fourth and final leadership truth bomb of the day.

Every ordinary habit.

I'm going to say it again.

Every ordinary habit has an extraordinary consequence.

Oh, that's fire right there.

Every ordinary habit that you have has an extraordinary consequence.

It can produce.

I'm telling you, this is fire right here.

Understand that preparation, your season of preparation and your season of execution, that's where you're at right now.

And if you're saying, well, that's not me, that's where I need to be, but that's not where I've been, then make the quality decision today, right now, as you're listening to my voice, to show up for yourself louder than you have before, show up for yourself faster than you ever have before.

You don't need to go away and think about this thing.

What is there to think about?

If you already know you want something more than you have today, if you know you want to be or do or accomplish something greater than you're doing today, then there's nothing you need to think about.

You just need to make the commitment to grow.

Because remember, Champion, I believe in you.

And if I believe in you, I want to encourage you that you should believe in you also.

I believe in you, Champion, because I know that you have greatness deep down on the inside of you.

You just have to continue to cultivate it, grow it and develop it.

And as you do those things, that greatness that's on the inside of you is going to come bursting out at the seams and it's going to show up on the outside for others to be able to see as well.

Whatever that thing is that you're preparing for, that you need to be preparing for, I want to encourage you today to go out and smash that thing.

Go out and smash it and give it your best.

Now, guys, before I let you go, I want to encourage you to swing by our website@neilrays.com where you can find all of our stuff to be able to view, but all of our resources.

In addition to that, it's the best way for you to connect with us and sign up for our email list so that you can be in regular contact with us and hear about the awesome things going on here with us in this podcast.

And just in general, guys, we also want to encourage you, we want to, first of all, thank you for following this podcast.

It is taking off like wildfire.

We also want to thank you for sharing it with others.

But we also want to encourage you to follow it, to subscribe to it, do all the things you need to do.

But also, please if you'd leave us a review, because in podcast land, the podcast companies that help to promote the podcast, whether it be the Apple podcast platforms or the Spotify or things of the world, when you leave reviews and you leave ratings, those things go a long way in podcast land and they help them to produce it and put it in front of even more people who can connect with it as well.

And I know we got good information here on this show and I believe something good is happening to you today.

There's good stuff here today.

You showed up and listened to a Fire podcast day, and what that tells me is that you care about your future.

You care about your development.

But if you care about your development, then that tells me you probably care about others as well.

And even if it's others you don't know or the closest ones to you, share the podcast with them.

Help us share this with others by leaving those reviews so that we can get it out in front of others and help them connect with their best life and their best performance as well.

Guys, until we talk to you and see you next time, thank you and have a blessed day.
