Living a Significant LIfe

It is doubtful anyone listening to The Zigar Show who would say no to being trimmer, more muscular or just having more energy and vitality. Most of you are probably making efforts to eat “healthy” and get some exercise. Are you getting the results you want? It increasingly seems people are more frustrated than grateful for the status of their body and health. Is our body the enemy? Is it betraying us? If you resonate with any of this, you will get great value from this show. My guest is Angelo Poli, an internationally recognized expert in fitness and nutrition. He’s the Founder of MetPro, the world’s first algorithm based transformation engine. Using a process called Metabolic Profiling, MetPro analyzes your metabolism and provides an individualized approach to obtaining your health goals. Angelo has spent much of his career as a motivational speaker and was a featured speaker at TEDxChico where he discussed his own achievement in overcoming obstacles. After recovering from a crippling injury himself that saw him use a cane for nine years, Angelo brought to light a whole new way of thinking about health, fitness, and weight loss. In his 20 years of educating the masses and challenging generalized health guidance, Poli has become one of the most celebrated and desired body transformation experts in the world. In this show he will explain why you are not getting the results you want, and I guarantee it will make sense. And he does not tell you want to eat, what exercise to use or what magic supplement to take. Also, Ziglar Show listeners can receive their own, complimentary Metabolic Evaluation and a 30-minute one on one consultation with a Metabolic Expert by going to  metpro.co/ziglar and click “Get Started.” Metpro will review your answers, respond to any questions you may have, and discuss ways MetPro can support your weight loss and performance goals.

Have you had an area in life where you once underperformed and were thought to not have much ability, and you ultimately came to succeed in this area? Do you have an area in your life you’ve been told you can’t do it, you can’t make it, and you’ve believed it? Maybe you should think again. I kick us off by playing a 3.5 minute clip from Zig Ziglar where he shares a story about one of his daughters who was deemed in school as not a high academic performer. That perception was carried out by everyone around her, even including Zig and his wife Jean. He shares what transpired in later years, and as you can imagine, it’s an inspiring story. From this I asked a question on Facebook, and folks, I invite you to join us for these weekly conversations, find and friend me on Facebook at agentkmiller. This week I asked the question, “Have you had an area in life where you once underperformed and were thought to not have much ability in, and later came back to succeed in this area?” Tom Ziglar joined me to talk through your comments. I believe you’ll find great confirmation, and possibly some conviction.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Do you honestly believe you can change how your see yourself, and from that actually BE someone different, to a degree? Should you? I think this gets to the root of personal development and self-help. What does that even mean? No matter what I do, I’ll still wake up the next day as me, right? But will I act and do and behave and perform the same? If I increase or decrease my abilities, do I become someone different? In truth, yes, as it alters how others and I, experience myself. It’s the difference of how others will label me and ultimately I’ll label myself. Am I smart or dumb? Well it depends on the topic and what I’ve pursued education in. Am I strong or weak? I have the ability to alter that. Am I patient and tolerant or a jerk? If I become more patient, do I become someone else? You’ve probably seen a movie or experience in real life, someone who everyone knew and doesn’t see for a decade. And when you see them next, they look totally different. They hold themselves differently. They are different inside and out. Their DNA is the same, their name may be the same, they may have some of the same characteristics and mannerisms, but goodness, they are different. To a great degree, they really became someone different. In show 675 I had a significant conversation with Rock Thomas who has the Goalcast video with over 100 million views, titled, “How to change the way you see yourself.” In that show, you’ll hear that if you change the way you see yourself, you truly do become a different person on many levels. So from this I wanted to, of course, hear from you, the Ziglar listeners. I asked this question on Facebook, “Do you honestly believe you can change how your see yourself, and from that actually BE someone different, to a degree?” And wow, I opened the floodgates. You’ll hear some harsh realities that people have overcome, from pondering suicide to loving life. I had Rock join me to talk through the  submissions and it was flat out profound and inspiring. We could make our own Goalcast video out of the content. Get ready for a ride.

It’s a joke and expectation that we often work against ourselves. Our mind betrays us. We want one thing and do the other. It’s the human condition, right? Yes it is. But...it doesn’t have to be. In this show I bring you John Assaraf. I’m going to name drop to show you the impact John has had in this area of the brain and mind. John has made frequent appearances on Larry King Live and has been featured in eight films, including the blockbuster smash hit “The Secret” and “Quest for Success” with Richard Branson and the Dalai Lama. He is one of the leading behavioral and mindset experts in the world, with a unique ability to help people release the mental and emotional obstacles that prevent them from achieving their very best in life and business. What I appreciate is John is a leading expert in this area, but he’s not a doctor with fancy degrees and certifications. He’s an entrepreneur who is like you and me, just interested in how to get the most out of ourselves.  In the last 25 years, John has grown 5 multi-million dollar companies in real estate, internet software, brain research, and life and business coaching and consulting. He is the author of two New York Times best-selling books: “Having It All” and “The Answer.” His brand-new book is called “Innercise: The New Science to Unlock Your Brain’s Hidden Power and this book and message was our primary focus in this show. As you’ll hear, our conscious mind is what we are aware of, but it accounts for about 3-5% of our brain activity. Meanwhile the rest of our brain, the subconscious, is working to make sure things stay the same. Got a new idea? New epiphany? New goal and conviction? Great! Now 95% of your brain is working underneath your subconscious to keep you where you are. Why? There’s good reason, as you’ll hear in a minute. But the hope here is...you can train your subconscious to get with the program and work FOR you. This is just an exciting show, if I do say so myself. You’ll hear us referencing John’s new book, Innercise: The New Science to Unlock Your Brain's Hidden Power.

Who needs a coach, consultant or counselor? Who doesn’t? And if you are one, what do you need for a healthy and prosperous business? This is our Q&A show and we have two focal points: 1) If you are a human who wants to progress in your life, getting guidance can be powerful. Should you get some? From who? A coach, consultant or counselor?, 2) If you are or want to be a coach, consultant or counselor and want to increase your sanity, help your clients more and make more money, what can you do? We kick off with a three minute clip from Zig Ziglar where he talks about the reality that we all have weak areas and could probably use help. And if we have a healthy self-image, we will see out help. He actually tells a true story of his son and Ziglar’s CEO, Tom Ziglar, getting help for himself. From the message, I posted this question on Facebook, “Who has ever hired a coach or consultant or counselor with good results?” We got responses from such a wide variety of experiences. I had Michelle Prince join me, she’s coached in many areas of business and right now is focused on book publishing for business people who want to expand their message. Find her at MichellePrince.com. But what this led to was hitting what I believe are THE key topics those who could benefit from paid help, which I think is all of us, need to know, AND we hit the key elements those who ARE coaches, consultants and counselors need to know, for themselves, their businesses and their clients. As our entire listening audience is here to progress, I don’t know anyone this show is not highly relevant for. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We prioritize and work towards what we give the most value. So how about assigning empowering meanings and value to the things that really matter in your life? To the things you want to matter. That is a mental habit of Rock Thomas, which he shares with us here in our Habits Show. Rock was our guest in show 675 where are focus was changing the way we see ourselves. Other things we hit on, he's 56 and can do 57 pushups and is in prime health. He grew up in a family with no good habits, so healthy relational habits are a weaker area. He highly values a strong work ethic and blind faith. His personal pursuits are the piano that he's pursuing later in life, golfing, biking, swimming and he loves dancing. It was an inspiring run through one of today's premier influencers, healthy life habits. This is a great run through the personal habits of a healthy habits sensei.

Everyone is doing it these days, it seems. Meditation was our muse. Everyone is doing it these days, it seems. Meditation is losing its spiritual baggage and going mainstream as the new exercise of today’s greatest leaders and influencers. If you listen to our Habits show you hear it over and over as a primary staple for our esteemed guests consistent strategies for success. So of course I wanted to ask you, the listening audience. Do any of you actually meditate? And why, what do you get out of it. Then I couldn’t help but ask the follow up question, if you do NOT meditate...why not? We received more responses than I anticipated, I honestly didn’t expect so many people to be meditating. But we got into sticky areas, like can you meditate and be a Christian? Can you meditate while driving a car or reading your Bible. I enhanced the conversation of course, by having Jonni Pollard himself co-host with me and folks, he was just brilliant in candidly answering the hard questions. I came out of the discussion more convicted than ever. Jonni is an international meditation expert and guru and in show 671 we talked directly about meditation and freeing ourselves from...ourselves. Again, the point isn’t meditation. It’s a means to an end. It was a fascinating conversation and was prompted by Michael Hyatt sharing that he used Jonni’s top ranked meditation app, One Giant Mind, every day. It prompted me to finally give it a try. And...I’m trying! This is a show worth listening to so you can decide if you want to start meditating, or decide it’s not for you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
