Secret To Make Your Goals Happen (Shhhhhhh...)
Tuesday Oct 16, 2018
Tuesday Oct 16, 2018
Ep #73 - What's the secret to make your goals happen? Today I share one simple resource: FLEXIBILITY. The more flexible you can become in your goals approach, the more ways you can find to win.
How can you take on more flexibility in life and what does it mean for you, what does it do for you? Perhaps you've found yourself not getting something done that you want to get done. When you find that, I take on the philosophy that the person with the most flexibility will always control the environment.
Today's discussion is all about flexibility and a lot of the content derives from Evolution Seminar's Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) content.
Listen in and enjoy the show.

Monday Oct 01, 2018
Ep #69 - Welcome to episode #69 of The Purpose Driven Entrepreneur with Matt Brauning. In today's episode, Matt discusses the dichotomy of juggling pride and humility. As entrepreneurs, we walk a tight rope where we need to balance our own humility with a need to develop authority and prestige in a marketplace.
Matt has recently been doing several media appearances as part of his book launch and wanted to discuss this topic as it's been on the forefront of his mind recently.
It's a though provoking discussion and a valuable one for entrepreneurs especially.

The Story of My Brother John Frederick Brauning V.
Wednesday Sep 19, 2018
Wednesday Sep 19, 2018
Ep #65 - Today is the 5 year anniversary of my brother John’s passing, and I wanted to share his story in long form.
This is a bonus episode, so bear with me as I take my time, and talk about some funny stories growing up, share his never quit attitude, and why his life was a gift.
John was my older brother by 3 years, and passed away at 36 from stage 4 colon cancer. I wanted a place to share his story and legacy so anyone could get to know him.
I’m also sharing this for anyone who has walked through hard things like:
Tragic Car Accidents
Traumatic Brain Injury
Stroke
Losing a Child, Sibling, or Parent
Being a Caretaker
I talk about being teased as a kid, the crazy dares he used to make me do, how he persevered and obtained a masters degree with a brain injury, and even finding the love of his life, his wife Bonnie.
This is the story, from my perspective, of John Frederick Brauning V.
Thanks for listening.
