Drastically Improve Your Decision-Making | DAVID MELTZER
Each of us is faced with thousands of decisions on a daily basis. You're ability to make the right decisions spell the difference between failure and success for you, your family, your clients, your business, and your community. Unfortunately, with all the variables to take into consideration, it's hard to know which decisions are best.That's why I'm looking forward to getting this conversation to you today. My guest is David Meltzer and he is the CEO of one of the world's leading sports and entertainment marketing agencies. Today, we go to the root of making choices, why assumptions kill success, the power of harnessing fear, and how to improve your game-time decision making. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Rags to riches How critical decisions are made Fear-based consciousness Ego-based consciousness Making assumptions The pragmatic truth Having an attitude of faith Disciplining the sub-conscience Doing things consistently Choosing to be happy Living in the truth Shifting your energy Accessing what you want How to substitute fear Coming from a place of love Truth consciousness Improving your vibration DAVID MELTZER As I mentioned earlier, my guest is David Meltzer and he is the CEO of Sports 1 Marketing, a top 10 keynote speaker, an award-winning humanitarian, and a best-selling author. He has over 25 years of experience in the legal, technology, sports, and entertainment fields, and needless to say, is an expert in high-stakes, high-pressure decision-making situations. He is business partners with Hall of Fame Quarterback, Warren Moon, and inspired movies such as Jerry Maquire, Any Given Sunday, and For Love of the Game. And, as you'll hear in our conversation today, he is an extremely deep thinker and I know you'll enjoy how deep we go in this podcast on how to position yourself to make better choices and decisions. IRON COUNCIL With all that we've had going on over the past couple of months with the move and our upcoming event this weekend, you haven't heard me talk about our exclusive brotherhood, the Iron Council for a bit.It seems to me most men have lost their ability to band with other like-minded men who are going to push, motivate, and inspire them to do and be more in their lives. And, that's exactly what we're all about inside the Iron Council.When you band with us, you're going to get a monthly assignment (this month is hyper-focused on physical fitness), weekly challenges to push you along the way, access to the Foundry (our communication platform), and the camaraderie and accountability that comes when you band with other high-achieving men.

Service Above Self | MAT BEST
Today, I sit down with a fascinating man. His name is Mat Best and many of you know from his viral videos for Black Rifle Coffee Company. But what you may not know is how he views his military service as an Army Ranger with five combat tours. During our conversation, we talked about how he views his service, his continual support of military veterans, how he founded his mission after the military, where he stumbled along the way, and how he helped turn a simple coffee company into a household name. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Mission-oriented Defining yourself Acts of heroism Defusing threats Controlled violence How to out-grit people Being uncomfortable Developing core-competencies Mission first Manageable disagreements Creating a community The land of opportunity The need for meaningful conflict Owning responsibility MAT BEST As I stated earlier, my guest today is someone most of you are probably familiar with. His name is Mat Best and he is a former Army Ranger and the co-founder of Black Rifle Coffee company along with several other companies he founded since leaving the military. He and I had the opportunity to sit down at Total Archery Challenge a couple of weeks ago in Park City to talk about his military service, how to lead an incredible organization in Black Rifle Coffee Company, and his new book, Thank You For My Service. Gents, I think you're going to enjoy this one as you might see a side of Mat you haven't seen before. ORIGIN If you're not familiar with Origin Maine, I encourage you to get familiar with them as soon as you can.

How to Stand Out as a Man Among Men | BERT SORIN
It comes as no surprise that most men have a desire to stand out from the pack as a man of credibility and authority. I call it influence and, the more of it you have with others, the more effective and successful you will be in your life. Today, I am joined by my friend, Bert Sorin, to talk about how to stand out as the man. He's a man I've respected immensely since I met him a little over a year ago and someone who stands out as the type of man I'm referring. We get into the "x-factor," adding value in all of your interactions, matching your actions with your words, and how to stand out as a man among men. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Defining the X-Factor Finding relevance Adding value to your tribe Developing social skills Having the right motives Protecting your "magic" Letting go of expectations Watching the tide come in Scaling forward Your value proposition Dissociating from your activities Building your fortress Playing to win BERT SORIN Gents, today I am joined by repeat guest and friend, Bert Sorin.Bert is the President and CEO of Sorinex. I know you've been hearing me talk about them for some time now since I was introduced to him and Sorinex about this time last year.Bert is a former Division 1 Track and Field All-American and an Olympics Trial athlete. And, what he learned in sports, he has now translated to running this incredible leader in strength and exercise equipment.And, it's not only about their equipment. I had the privilege of attending their annual event, SummerStrong, and I can tell you that the culture they've created within the organization and movement is a sight to behold. And, because of that, I thought Bert and I needed to sit down for round 2 to talk about standing out. Enjoy. MAINE EVENT One of the most frequently asked questions I receive is something along the lines of "How do I get my life back on track?" I wish there was an easy answer. There isn't. But, there is a simple one. It's called the Battle Plan and it's a system I've been developing over 10 years to take control of my health, relationships, bank account, this movement, and my life in general. If you've been listening to the podcast over the past month, you've heard me talk about the Order of Man Maine event (held August 10th-11th). Among the like-minded men you'll meet, the challenges we'll participate in, and the activities we have planned, you'll be working on your own Battle Plan to accomplish more in the next 90 days than you potentially have all year. If you know you're meant for more but haven't found the systems and tools to maximize your potential, join us August 10th-11th in Maine for an event designed to give you the network and framework to take complete sovereignty over your life.
