This week I am joined by Brett Lorin.  Brett is a former professional baseball player turned successful entrepreneur, and host of the Too Tall Sports podcast.  I wanted to have Brett on because his story is very similar to mine.  However, when it comes to stature, we're VERY different. Brett was blessed with the one thing any pitcher would love to have ... height.  Standing 6 ' 7, Brett looks like the prototypical pitcher and his journey includes a successful career in minor league baseball.  Despite the success, that one last call up to the "Big Leagues" never came. Today, Brett has successfully transitioned into Chapter 2 of his life, something that is extremely difficult for many pro athletes.  Brett is living out the entrepreneurial life in solar sales as well as a past stint growing a Jimmy Johns franchise. In this episode Brett and I talk about his journey through high school and college sports and the feeling of coming up just one call short of Major League Baseball.  THIS EPISODE IS FOR ANY ATHLETE OR BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL transitioning to the next phase in life and looking for clues to do it successfully.

Can you imagine spending your career hunting down NFL Quarterbacks AND changing all four tires of a race car in less than 12 seconds?  Marshall McFadden can!  In this week's episode Marshall and I sit down and talk about both careers.  Marshall's football story is about coming from humble beginnings and showing up during the brightest moments.  Overlooked by most major college football programs, Marshall took his talents to South Carolina State, a program far off the radar of most NFL scouts.  However, he used this to drive him to constantly show up when the lights were brightest, ultimately landing him a job on Sundays playing in the NFL spending time with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Oakland Raiders, and St. Louis Rams. Today, Marshall has traded his football cleats in for a NASCAR uniform as a member of the Chip Ganassi racing team pit crew.  We talk about he applies what he's learned on the football field to the high-pressure moments on the race track.  It's extremely hard for pro athletes to transition to the next phase in life, but McFadden has done a beautiful job with it.  Tune in and enjoy a great conversation!

This week I'm talking about a topic that is a HUGE sore subject for so many...dealing with the judgement of others.  In this episode, I share a personal story of judgement that had a big impact on me when I was in high school.  My athletic abilities were called out in a local newspaper and, when you're 16 years old, it can crush you.  However, I used the words in the article as fuel; fuel that propelled me to excel on the baseball field in high school and college earning me the chance to play professional baseball. If you fear the criticism and judgement of your peers, this episode is just what you need.  You're not alone and there ONE WAY to get back at your doubters.  Tune in and find out!

This week I'm sharing a Keynote talk I gave in 2019 at the National Association of Health Underwriters annual convention.  The sound quality is not the best.  Using your story to differentiate from your competition gives you the ultimate advantage.  It's your story, no one else has it.  If used properly, leveraging the power of your story gives your audience a chance to know and like you even before they've met you.  It makes prospecting a hell of a lot easier. Most of all, it allows you to create huge impact on others' lives and your wallet!

This week I feel the need to honor a man I've never met.  Gary Vaynerchuk has had a massive impact on my coaching career and he doesn't even know who the hell I am.  But, through his daily encouragement, he's given me the confidence to realize that I am an entrepreneur.  He's showed me the tools to have the mindset to build a six-figure coaching business in less than one year. One of the BEST things I've done for my early entrepreneurial adventure is to make it a daily habit to start my morning with a dose of GaryVee videos on YouTube.  I've done this exercise for almost 2 years and it has changed my life forever.  Today, I share the 3 MOST IMPORTANT lessons I've learned after watching 100s of hours of Gary's knowledge, insight, and raw truth. I think these 3 lessons could have the same impact for you.  Listen in and get ready to get changed!

Show Notes: If you don't know who Aaron Golub is, you're going to be absolutely inspired by his story.  Aaron is, not only, a super human being, but by the time this episode is over, you'll realize you (and I) have no excuse to live up to your potential.  He has led a life filled with discipline and resiliency... and challenges.  Aaron was born legally blind.  He has no vision in his right eye, and very limited vision in his left.  When so many may have used this handicap as an excuse, he used it as motivation.  His goal?  Excel on the football field.  Cray, right?  However, Aaron was determined to prove all his doubters wrong.  He was dedicated to outworking his competition and do whatever it took to succeed.  This grit led him to become an extremely talented Long Snapper and THE FIRST legally-blind athlete to play Division 1 college football when he walked on at Tulane University.  He has continued to excel off the field as a successful financial adviser in Boston, MA. Get ready to put a smile on your face.  This is one of those episode you'll remember for a long time!  Here we go!

The words "six feet" will never be viewed the same again.  How you view this period in history will define who you become moving forward.  Are you going to look back and tell people about how the pandemic killed all of your momentum?  Or will look back at this moment in time as the start of the rest of your life? Perspective is everything.   Is this a time of fear?  Or is this a time of great opportunity? Believe it or not, six feet actually had an impact on my professional baseball career.  I thought you had to be AT LEAST six feet tall to have a chance to pitch at the professional level.  However, when you look back at some of the best pitchers of the last 20-30 years, there are plenty who stood shorter than six feet.  Again, it's all perspective.  What I saw as a hurdle, they saw as an opportunity. In this episode, I'll share 3 steps you can take RIGHT NOW to start living the life you know you're capable of.  The one thing you have the most control over is your mindset.  Use this episode to help you start taking the appropriate action.  Alright, here we go!    Resources: Connect with me on LinkedIn: Andy Neary     Connect with me on Instagram: @andy_neary     Website: andyneary.com     Virtual Mastermind: Complete Game

In this week's episode I dive into RESPONSIBILITY.  You MUST take 100% responsibility for your choices.  It wasn't always that way for me.  When I was younger I was a sore loser.  I would blame.  I would point fingers.  I was not responsible.  In fact, I share two stories that prove how much of a sore loser I was in sports.  A lot has changed in my life, but the principles remain the same.   Today, it's very easy to lay blame on everything around us.  But, it's time like this we must look inward and take control of our actions and choices.  Are you ready to OWN your decisions?

Hey hey!  It's Friday!  You know what that means?!?  It's time for Friday Bullpen Sessions! This week we're focusing on a topic near and dear to my heart... ...Letting the "metrics" of life paralyze you from taking action and making progress. What do I mean by metrics? You're comparing your "stats" to your peers. You're focused on the likes and comments with your social media posts. You're letting the opinions of others determine your next moves. Listen, I get it.  I was there at one time in my life.  In professional baseball you are, literally, compared to your peers by stats. Your stats determined if you were promoted or let go. But ... you CANNOT be paralyzed be the metrics. It leads to stress, anxiety, and unhappiness. Not you.  Not now! Just be you.  Just put yourself out there.  Just take action! And, if you need a little punch of accountability so you are taking the right action, I want you to go check out COMPLETE GAME today.  It is a 5-month mastermind program providing you with the COACHING, COMMUNITY, and ACCOUNTABILITY you need to take your life and business to the next level!

Today I'm discussing the MOST IMPORTANT "80/20" rule for your career. Here it is ... Success is 80% MINDSET, and 20% SKILL. Ask any professional athlete and they'll tell you it's the truth. Why is this important? Because in times of struggle, your natural instinct is to go seek more knowledge. You sign up for more conferences. You sign up for more webinars. You go seek people you think have the knowledge. Yet, that's not your problem. In times of struggle, go to work on your MINDSET. Fix that and magical stuff happens!

Hey hey!  Friday Bullpen Sessions Episode 34 is here! This week we're talking about taking your career to the next level. This episode was inspired by the following conversation I once had with a colleague... "The Alabama Crimson Tide could beat the Cleveland Browns." Whaaaat? Are you kidding me?? The Browns would wipe Alabama off the field. Why? Because the gap in skillset between college football and the NFL is HUGE! What made you great in college requires something completely different to get to the next level.  The same is true in professional baseball. And ... this could be happening to your career! Maybe you're already having a ton of success. Maybe you're already making a ton of money. But .... To get to the NEXT LEVEL is going to require a different skillset. What got you to your first milestone won’t necessarily get you to the next. It may require you to DO SOMETHING different. In this episode I share what I think is the SECRET to getting to the next level in your career. New level. New game. New strategy. Are you ready to take your career to the next level?  Listen in! Then, go check out the COMPLETE GAME MASTERMIND.   Your career will never be the same!! Check it out HERE: https://bit.ly/completegame

Happy Friday! It’s time for the bullpen session, episode 2️⃣2️⃣! Big shoutout to our sponsor 🏼APN consulting! Check it out! Today we are talking about being a specialist. And why 🏻YOU, 🏻your brand, and 🏻business need to become one. What do I even mean?🤷🏼‍♂️ Well, it’s time for a good ol ️baseball analogy. If you were to go back 1️⃣5️⃣- 2️⃣0️⃣years ago on baseball - the type of pitcher that was emphasized back then was the starting pitcher. 🏼 The statistics dwarf what a starting pitcher does today. You see if you were a starting pitcher and you’re pitching 7-9 innings you met a variety of different batters. You couldn’t go narrow. ❌ You had to go wide. ⭕️ Then something, in my opinion, happened in 2014 that changed it all. Listen to the bullpen to find out what and how. ⬇️ Quit trying to be the jack of all trades and just go narrow. ✅

Good morning! I have a very special bullpen today with the one and only 🏻Ali Duncan! This is Episode 2️⃣1️⃣and the full episode can be found on iTunes. Link in bio.

When someone walks up to you and says, hey I need to ask you a question. You want to answer it right? 🏻 Well the same applies when you ask yourself questions! 🏻 Seriously you need to listen to this bullpen. 🏼Ali is providing some amazing tips to help you during this time especially.

Consistency. Persistency. Patience.  Are you capable of all 3❓  Friday Bullpen Sessions Episode 6 🎙 is here!!  In my opinion, consistency, persistency, and patience are the KEYS to long-term success.  ✔️ You must be CONSISTENT every day.  Keep going LONG AFTER your competition has given up.  ✔️ You must PERSISTENT in chasing your goals.  ✔️ Yet, have the PATIENCE to know you're not going to be an overnight success.  Take inventory of your year to-date.  Are you applying all 3 to your actions?  Shoot me a note below 👇🏼 and let me know what you're doing in 2020 to be consistent, persistent, and patient.

Welcome back to Friday Bullpen Sessions Episode 5 🙌!  Today's topic?  The 6 basic human needs.  If you're unfamiliar with them, here they are...  ❇️ Certainty  ❇️ Uncertainty / Variety  ❇️ Growth  ❇️ Contribution  ❇️ Love and Connection  ❇️ Significance  In my work with insurance advisers, I see 3 of them standing out above all others... Certainty, Growth, and Significance.  The first 2 are pretty straightforward.    Wouldn't it be nice to have certainty in the future of your business?  Growth is obvious.  I'm hoping you strive to grow your business and yourself personally.  ➡️➡️ It's significance that stands out the most.    Would you like to have significance in your market?  Would you like to become a more-recognized authority in your field?  Here's how... communicate 🗣 BETTER and MORE OFTEN than anyone else.  🔑 I've said this over and over, he or she who communicates his or his story the BEST and MOST wins every time.  So, start sharing 🤲 your story as often as you can.  The world is waiting to hear it!!

Are you willing to put the work in when no one is watching❓  This week's Friday Bullpen Session is live!  Lately, I've been talking to a lot of insurance advisers frustrated with a lack of results, but blaming 👉🏾 external factors.  🗣 “My prospects don't get it."  🗣 “I just don't have enough opportunity."  🗣 “My prospects are lazy and don't want to do anything."  No, no, no.  That's not the problem, my friend.  ➡️ You're just not putting in enough of work, when no one is watching, to get better.  You have a craft, not a job.  Start taking it more seriously.  Put in the time to hone your craft.  I used to get pissed off when people would tell me that "it must have been nice to play pro baseball ⚾️ ...".  Some even said that I had the right "connections" that led to signing a contract.  What they were completely overlooking was the countless hours I put in to become a better pitcher...to put myself in the position to play at the highest level.  Do you want better results?  I suggest you do the same.  ☑️ Start practicing.    ☑️ Start working on the little things that will make you better.    ☑️ Start enjoying the monotony that success requires!
