A humorous and inspirational podcast to help motivate people that just can't figure out how to get started pursuing their dreams. Greg Owens is a stand up comic that waited over 30 years to pursue his dream. He's far from perfect; just a regular guy that wants to help other people reach their potential. Join him as he plods his way through the podcasting and social media world. We can all learn and get motivated together.
So many of us can't seem to get ahead very simply because we have ourselves convinced that we do not have the ability or skills to do so. We have ourselves convinced that we are just are not good enough. Well that's ok folks because that stuff is normal. And the good news is we can change that pattern. In this episode, O talks about how amazingly fast our brains work and how we need to understand what it's doing so we can better control our thoughts and stay positive. With the support of two excellent book recommendations, O discusses how our human super computers just really mess us up.
The pod is back! O explains the layoff and how he spent his summer and some of the small challenges he gave himself. A great episode to reconnect with O, who is just a regular dude trying to help other people realize you do not have to be perfect to accomplish great things. O also talks about his recent golf trip and how he fought off the urge to quit and ended up feeling great and having a wonderful time.
The self-help and self-improvement industry have gifted us with an entire lexicon of terms, labels, and catch phrases that can actually have us second guessing ourselves as much as helping us. In this episode O breaks down the common phrase "live in the moment" and gives us a pretty basic clear understanding of what it means and why its important. Check it out and tell a friend.
O speaks with New York City comedian James Mattern about his passion to be a stand up comic. James has a new album out and an upcoming special premiering June 3rd on You Tube called "The Check Spot". To James it was never a "dream" it was just what he knew he had to do. People have a lot of different ideas of what dreams are. Are they just whims? Are they impossible? Its all about perspective and how hard you want to work. Listen in and hear how James bets on himself and uses spite to accomplish his goals.
O makes just three short but very pertinent points in this very quick listen. No fall backs, don't compare yourself to others, have a plan, be Rich Strike!
Join O as he discusses overcoming obstacles with Soul Joel, himself, Joel Richardson of the famous Soul Joel's Comedy Club. Joel finally opened his very own brick and mortar comedy club only to be shut down by COVID a mere 5 moths later. Did he pack it in and quit? Hell no. He dug in and overcame the obstacle. Listen to his story here. Be sure to follow Souls Joel's on all the platforms. www.souljoels.com @souljoels @souljoelproductions
You don't have the right to tell yourself you are not good enough to accomplish anything. We're going to talk about what this means. Also, we talk about how we react to what happens in our lives. And finally O opens up about his self-esteem issues a bit.
