The Final Percent

Not Your Fault, But Is Your Responsibility With Brian Bogert

Do you have people in your life that will challenge you on what you say? Well, I have found a couple, but one of the most prominent people, who does that for me, is Brian Bogert. When I think of overcoming internal challenges I think back to all of the conversations I have had with Brian. He helps me to identify these challenges and work through them to build up my brightest future. I hope today he can help you along on your journey. 
 
Today we talked about our challenges and the stories that rose us up to the points that we are at today. The ups and downs, the good and the bad. The moments that lead us to find who we are and what we should do. As leaders, we both understand that we have a long way to go, but that we have also come a long way. 
The power I experienced connecting with Brian has been extraordinary. To find out more about Brian, head to: https://brianbogert.com/

Finding Magic With Cosimo Intermite

Change doesn't happen overnight. It begins with a choice. With an opportunity to be yourself, to be the change in the people around you. People will always find you as a role model when you make the decisions first. Change stars small. It builds and builds into new opportunities and new chances until suddenly it explodes into something special.
The world is complex, but our special guest today makes it feel simple. He is a motivational speaker from Italy that changed his environment entirely in order to impact as many lives as possible. Now he travels the nation working with companies as well as running his own, Genius in 21 Days. Cosimo Intermite is a magnificent speaker and an even better person. His energy is infectious and his ideas for the world will redefine how you see yourself and your circumstance.

The Cascade Effect W/ Derek Abt

Everyday we make a choice, we choose how our day is going to go, how we will react and how others will see us react. When you make this decision it cascades. It begins to run down and it can either cascade into success, positive mentality and passionate action. Or it can cascade into a bad day. That 10% failure leads you to doubt, self sabotage and repeated downfalls of the mind. 
Today when you listen to this podcast, think of how you will start your day and how you will notice when the cascades begin. For good or for bad. 
Go The Final Percent for yourself and don't let 10% ruin the other 90%.

I’m Going To W.A.R.

Happy New Year!! We have completed an absolutely crazy year that has lead us down so many paths! It has been awesome to meet so many new people, to travel the world helping change and redefined their future. With such a cool year coming to a close we want to make 2023 extra special for everyone. We have big things in the works, from retreats around the nation, to events with RENATUS, this year is going to change the way we operate as a company, as individuals and as a community. 
This year we are going to W.A.R.! Now what does W.A.R. mean? W.A.R. means Wise Actions Repeated. We are going to take our wisest actions over the last few years and we are going to repeat them this year. Not just once but over and over again. Now it may seem wise now but could no longer be in the future. Wisdom is not knowing everything, it is taking what you know to be true right now and making decisions around those reference-able experiences. 
Everyone is the wisest person for their own life. You know what you like best. You know who you like spending time with, how you spend your time and why you spend your time. No one but you can determine the way life will play out. Your decisions define your quality of life. However by joining a community and beginning to experience the way others define and live their lives your wisdom may change. Suddenly the exposure to new places, people, things and ideas may give you a new lens to view your own life through. I know it did for me. When I saw the total eclipse in Wyoming, my view of my own life shifted dramatically! When I visited Kenya last year, I not only got to spend time with new people but experience new cultures that changed the way I view my own culture. 
This is the power of having someone to create more reference-able experiences with. When you go to W.A.R. you step out onto that field with every memory you have standing behind you. If those memories are negative, W.A.R. becomes battle. But if those memories are positive, W.A.R. becomes an adventure. I want to create positive experiences no matter where I go. Negative memories are bound to happen, it is impossible to stand on that field with nothing but positivity. However by being positive, by unlocking the piece of your life that allows you to stand with every positive memory you can, you can hold your negativity as a sword. As a tool to be wielded  in the face of adversity, while still having every angel that you have crossed paths with, standing at your shoulder. Waiting for your wisdom to redefine the course of that adventure. Let us all be a good person to each other this year, so that they do not have to go to W.A.R. alone. 

Regaining Options

Welcome back everyone! Thank you for tuning into this edition of The Final Percent podcast. We have some big things coming up this Saturday. From new event announcements to a little something that you are probably not expecting, you are sure to want to tune into our first Super Saturday! 
The team and I have been working hard to bring you these very special things. From new graphic design to video shoots and updates to our website we have been hammering away at creating something very special for 2023 and even a little bit of 2024! 
For those of you not in our FaceBook group you can join through this link:

Now with Super Saturday announcements out of the way I want to ask you all, hows your fitness? Fitness has become a very import aspect of the team at TFP, while we were out on tour we would leave our hotel at 9-10 at night to get to the gym and get a work out in. Now every day we are doing some form of workout. Basketball, running, weight lifting or even just doing pushups until we drop. Now we don't just do this because we are gym bros who want to show off, we want to lead by example. We have been working with individuals and groups to improve their mindset for a long time and we have shown everyone what improvements in that world looks like, now we are starting to show everyone what improving your physical health looks like. 
We aren't going into this with a ton of training and knowledge however, while I have been going to the gym for a long time I still don't know everything about physical training. So I have been doing research. I began working with a training professional, ordering new kinds of workout equipment and trying new exercises. I have become an experiment for vitamins and supplements, all because I want to become incredibly healthy in my life so that I can live a longer and happier with my wife and child. I want to raise my physical awareness so that I can overcome the challenges of age, so that I can become The Final Percent version of myself physically.  
If anyone saw me back at the beginning of 2022 I was overweight and honestly depressed. Now I am feeling amazing, I have dropped weight, gained muscle and begun to enjoy the things that use to feel impossible to me. I mean I ran 2 marathons this year! That is the greatest benefit of health, the power to gain back the options in your life that you had previously lost. With that I want to invite you to become The Final Percent version of your physical self with me. 

Age Is Just A Number With Alysia Clements

How often do you think you can or can’t do something based on your age? Oh I can’t relax, I'm not old enough, oh I can curse I'm young, oh I am, oh I am not, I am, I'm not… Age is just a number. The number of people who have said, “there's no way I can be successful. I'm not old enough.” Is a little ridiculous. 
 
Today I was joined by my friend, Alysia Clements. She is a 21 year old entrepreneur in the Denver area that is absolutely crushing the Airbnb business. She currently has ownership in around 30 Airbnb properties. Now Alysia wasn’t always working in this market. She had to go through many hardships that lead her to the ventures she is in today. 
 
The reason she defines that age is just a number is that she shows others that this life doesn’t need to operate on a select time frame. A common life would structure everything out for you, first you go to school, then you go to college, then you get a job and you work until you retire. This commonality of life is starting to break, more and more people are redesigning the way we see the time frame of life and have begun to build in the beginning of life when many others are still staring at the blueprint. 
 
You can’t allow the history of mankind to determine the way you will live. Life has a complex winding system of paths that will change as you move along. Yes you can follow the guide, follow the given straight ahead path or you can go on an adventure! Travel your mind and resign the idea that you can or can't do anything. Break the mold and become who you want to be. No matter the time table you are dancing on.

I Am Not Who I Think I Am

After a long journey around the nation it is my honor to welcome you back to The Final Percent Podcast. We have been falling behind on the episodes however we are getting back on it! 
Having been to so many places and meet so many people, I have made some connections that are going to change the way I operate. Both interpersonally and externally. We have been having the conversation and been planning two additional companies that will be operating in tandem with TFP's coaching practice. 
Alongside these new connections, I have been beginning to separate from some old ones. As I realized more and more that they don't serve me I began to have to pull away my grace and realize that although everyone deserves grace, only provide grace were grace is due. 
It brings me back to the old adage that I say often, I am not who I think I am, I am not who you think I am, I am who I think you think I am. Now that sometimes sounds so outlandish that you might not think it's true. However how often do you confront someone about a problem and they didn't even realize there was one? This is why we give grace. This is why compassion and kindness surpass all other giving virtues. Because while we exist in our own world of ideas and dreams, we often degrade ourselves by thinking people believe something about us that they don't. 
As the end of the year approaches I am getting so excited for what I have in store. And I refuse to allow the idea that others will look down on my dreams deter me from this path. 
We hope everyone can join us in person or online for our live stream Super Saturday on December 17th. Big things are going to be announced and we are going to change the name of the game!
