• 0:16
  I believe confidently, they do you just haven't recognized them
• 0:21
  there together before because to get to anywhere, we want to go,
• 0:26
  we usually have to walk through our fears, our own nightmares,
• 0:30
  to figure out whatever grit, whatever we got to do, that gets
• 0:37
  us to the side. We want to be on, and that's the
• 0:39
  success, and that's the nightmare success.
• 0:43

  It's however, we handle these obstacles.

  These experiences that we've had that you have these created,
• 1:23
  these daily obstacles. And there are not allowing us to
• 1:26
  be free. You wonder like, how did I get
• 1:30
  here? Think about this for the last 18
• 1:32
  months, the whole world has been together in a strange lockdown.
• 1:39
  And you can't do what you want. Can't go where you want when you
• 1:44
  want. If to wear masks, you got to do
• 1:47
  these things that you didn't have to do before.
• 1:52
  And I you have everybody's had a deal with that and their own
• 1:55
  way. But on your daily obstacles, you
• 1:59
  wonder like how do I get into a rut?
• 2:01
  You know it. How did I get here?
• 2:03
  Is it a is it a job that's holding me hostage for my
• 2:06
  potential? Is that a bad marriage?
• 2:08
  You know, past failures of loss or Hope Health crisis, some kind
• 2:13
  of specific tragedy or loss of a loved one.
• 2:16
  Could be all those things. well, I had a situation where I had it
• 2:25
  all. Lost it all as a 15 year old.
• 2:29
  I had this bigger-than-life dad that I idolized and he ended up
• 2:35
  going to prison. And at 15 years old.
• 2:38
  I said that's never going to happen to me.
• 2:42
  And a few decades later, it did. And I found myself standing at
• 2:48
  the gates of Leavenworth, Prison to serve a five-year sentence.
• 2:50
  So, what happens when your worst reality, your worst, fear
• 2:54
  becomes your reality, well, in this podcast, nightmares success
• 3:00
  in and out, I'm going to be dealing with those topics.
• 3:03
  And I'm actually going to be talking to the guys, I was with
• 3:05
  at Leavenworth and we're going to talk about life before prison
• 3:10
  life inside prison and life outside of prison.
• 3:17
  But my feeling is that we all are dealing with something.
• 3:23
  In our lives, we've created an invisible prison in our minds.
• 3:31
  I want to use the experiences and I'm excited about this.
• 3:34
  I want to use the experiences that I've had in my life because
• 3:37
  I've lived an interesting life of Extreme Ops and extreme
• 3:44
  Downs. And I feel a lot of gratitude
• 3:49
  for where I'm at today to be able to do what I'm doing today
• 3:54
  and I want to share those experiences as talk to people
• 3:56
  that I've had those experiences with to possibly help out other
• 3:59
  people who might be stuck. And, you know, the it's all
• 4:03
  about eventually. Isn't it really about your
• 4:09
  mindset? The old Henry, Ford quote is
• 4:16
  where do you think you can or you can't you're right man in
• 4:20
  that true. Well next week I'm going to
• 4:25
  introduce you and start introducing you to the guys that
• 4:29
  I was with at Leavenworth. And I think these stories are
• 4:33
  going to be inspiring. I think that they're going to be
• 4:39
  sad, I think that they'll be a times funny.
• 4:44
  But most of all, I think that there's going to be pieces and
• 4:46
  Nuggets in there that you can take away.

• 4:53
