This is a powerful piece shared by Clint Hurdle in our Mindful Journey conversation. In 1978, Clint graced the cover of Sports Illustrated labeled as a “phenom” at 20 years old, and the scouts and writers were indicating that he had “unlimited potential” who would likely be one of the greatest to ever play the game of baseball. Although Clint has had an unbelievably successful career as a manger and a coach in the MLB, his playing days never quite lived up to that hype. He has openly and publicly talked about his early struggles with addiction, but when I asked him what he believes contributed to his alcohol use, he vulnerably shares in this brief clip. We can all learn from Clint’s wisdom shared here, and I hope that if you’re dealing with something today, that you have the courage to ask for help. #mindfuljourney #wellbeing #wellness #careforself #life #overcome #addiction #recovery #alcoholicsanonymous #hope #help #heal #adversity #pain #inspiration #motivation #mundfulness #interview #mlb #leadership #baseball #vulnerability #conversation #mentalhealth
A bad moment does not have to turn into a “bad” day. Change your state! #inspiration #motivation #life #foodforthought #perspective #badday
Be mindful of the words you’re speaking to self, and others. #mindfulness #communication #inspiration #connection
Don’t underestimate the impact of your words and actions. They can have a ripple effect that lives on forever. #motivation #leadership #culture #inspiration #life
As a leader, how you make people feel about their work, will determine how they execute on the mission and vision of the organization. #mission #vision #inspiration #motivation #keynotespeaker #life #foodforthought #kotivationalspeaker #newyear #speaker #leadership #culture 
Failure arises when we give up, not when we fall short. #fail #tryagain #succeed #inspiration #motivation #life #keynotespeaker
Life is fragile. 100 years from now, it won’t matter what people think of you, nor will your fears be relevant. However, the action you take in spite of those fears and thoughts, will be what helps your legacy live on. #action #comfortzone #courage #inspiration
In this busy world, it’s become increasingly important that we slow down and find time to simply be still. #mindfulness #awareness #slowdown #inspiration #motivation #life #foodforthought
Deeply grateful to retired Navy SEAL Commander, Jon Macaskill, for his openness and vulnerability in our discussion last week. In this brief clip, Jon provides an inside look into some of those challenges and recounts part of the operation that the movie Lone Survivor was centered around. #Mindfulness & #meditation changed his life & he now teaches it globally. #hope #heal #lonesurvivor #mindfuljourney #wellness #wellbeing #careforself #mentalhealth #inspiration #perspective
Jon Macaskill so eloquently summed up how knowing self allows us to deploy more compassion and empathy for others.The truth is, we all face challenges.Yet, too many times we wear masks in hope to hide what we’re going through.As a result of our own suppression, and in an attempt to project an outward strength, it becomes far more difficult to empathize with others because we may not want to appear “weak.”But as Jon reminds us, when we have compassion for self, it’s much easier to extend compassion for others — because we recognize there’s a likelihood that they could be hurting, too.The next time that someone cuts you off in traffic, responds negatively to your work, and/or speaks an unkind word to you, strive to remember that they’re “human.” Providing yourself a moment of pause, and attempting to understand where they may be coming from, allows you the opportunity to thoughtfully respond, as opposed to thoughtlessly reacting. And that thoughtful response, very well may be no response at all.Thanks Jon for your wisdom shared and joining us for a discussion in Mindful Journey! #mindfulness #vulnerability #empathy #compassion #inspiration #motivation #mindfuljourney #life #foodforthought #careforself #masks #doubt #grace #interview #podcast #mindfulness #quotes #respond #react
Sometimes we have to keep moving forward. One foot in front of the other. Thanks to the CEO of CompleteU, John Meyer, for joining me for this important conversation in Mindful Journey a few months ago. Deeply grateful for John’s openness and inspiring words he shared throughout our conversation. #hope #heal #trauma #momentbymoment #help #care #keepgoing #mindfuljourney
