Becoming the "Mom's Mentor"
I just celebrated Mother's Day with my wife and 4 kids... and during the day, I started to think about my role as a mentor.
It has changed quite a bit over the past 4 years. I made a video explaining what has happened.
Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there.

The game I'm trying to get you all to win in healthcare
|
It’s not the money game. It’s the time game. That’s what I’m trying to get you to win. I just finished listening to a message at church, that talked about the importance of rest. This week in my devotionals, Pastor Rick Warren focused on the Sabbath… And the importance of rest. When someone asks us how we are doing, naturally we want to say how busy we are… It’s almost like we have this busy badge of honor… And I just don’t think that’s a good thing. I’m naturally not someone who likes to rest… But luckily for me, I’m married to someone that understands the importance of me not going 100 mph all the time. Because of that, she has saved my life… She’s made me look at my career in a different light… And understand the importance of winning the time gain more than the money game. That’s what my goal is for all of you. To teach you how to win the time game. That’s the... |
Having Vision In Your Life
I want to tell you a story about my biz partner, Mike.
About 18 years ago, he used to market by going to high school football games and working the sidelines. Back then he just knew how to market and how to build relationships with people by going to high school football games and being on the sideline with physicians. He told me, “Sometimes it would be pouring rain, and he's out there just drenched...kinda sucked..."
He was doing this week after week after week.... month after month after month. If a player got hurt, then he would have like an emergency clinic on Saturday and do a quick assessment with the orthopedic surgeon.
He told me that when he was out there, he would have a vision of him going to Greece, which is where he's from. He'd have a vision of him being able to be in a situation in his business, where one day he would go to Greece. He said, “Sometimes I would daydream out there in the rain, that I was back in my homeland.” Pretty...
Using Technology to Your Advantage
I always had the dream of teaching; I wanted to be a professor one day. That was my dream 17 years ago. So it's amusing because you never know where life is going to take you. I have zero desire to be a professor today, but I've always had a love for teaching.
It's amazing what technology has allowed me to do. I'm using my cell phone, pressing a button and using a platform that I paid $1,000 a year for, to host training and courses. One of the things that I always mention in my training is about social media and what are you doing with it? That's the big thing I want to tell you all today.
Technology... what are you doing with it?
Is technology using YOU or are YOU using technology?
I am using technology to broaden my reach, to help change a profession.
Is technology using you or are you just consuming information? I tell this to my kids because they used to be on YouTube all damn day.
They followed my advice... and instead of watching other people all day, they are...
Abundance vs Scarcity Mindset
I live a life of abundance, meaning that the minute that I learn something, I say “Okay I learned that, now I have to share it with someone.” That’s how I live.
I believe that God has put me on this earth, in the current position I'm in for a reason. I have resources to information, and I don’t think I’m supposed to hold that for myself.
Now conversely, some people don’t have that mindset. They are like “If I learn something, I’m keeping it for myself. If I learn something, I’m not sharing it, unless someone is paying me.

So how is this relevant? I think it is relevant for a couple of reasons. I believe in the field of physical therapy you rarely see collaboration. That's a problem... and it's hurting our field big time.
I recently had an exclusive mastermind event, and there were three of us: Aaron Lebauer, Paul Gough, and myself.

Shine Bright like a Diamond
I believe that every single one of you are like the Sun and you are meant to shine bright. You are meant to help others. You are meant to give to others. Whether that be you’re a physical therapist or you are a stay-at-home mom or a teacher. It really doesn’t matter.
In my eyes, your purpose on this earth is to shine bright on others.
I just believe that we’re all made to shine bright.
I hope you enjoy this video.
How Do I Jump When I'm Scared To Do Something
This is a question that I get asked quite often from people.
“I’m really nervous about taking this next step in my career. So Greg, how do you jump when you’re scared to do something? How do you deal with the fear of the unknown?”
I think this is a valid question. I totally understand what these people are saying.
So let me ask you….
Do you ever feel scared to jump?
To do something new?
Do you ever fear the unknown?
I really don’t want you all to think of me as this indestructible, energized person that has no fear and has no reservations and does not have anything holding him back. It’s not true. I do have lots of fears.
I am scared sometimes to do things. But I just want to tell you that I think the reason why I’ve been able to overcome so much is because of this one concept that I understand.
When I’m scared to jump and when I’m scared to go into the unknown and I have that fear that comes over me about the...
