Raising The Bar - Daily Thought With Coach Daly - Fri. 7-10-26 - #1926

“Send Coach John a message”

It’s always awesome finding so many things that speak directly to my heart. It’s like Clint Hurdle (@ClintHurdle13) knew this advice he was sharing, was something that I needed to connect with.  He shares this thought from his book:  “Hurdle-isms for having a high standard.  #17) “Lower the bar and you lose the winners; raise the bar and you lose the losers.”  Now I know I need to raise the bar simply to tell (and show) myself that I can (and need to) get rid of the “loser” versions of my previous selves along with their excuses, habits, self-talk, etc.  The other one was #18) “We don’t have time to have “just another day.”  I am seeing this more and more as I get older. I knew about this truth when I was younger, but I for sure didn’t think about it too often and it did not really add any reasons for me to do things that I knew I needed to do. I need to do things. Now! How about you?  Any thoughts for the person staring back at you in the mirror about these two “hurdle-sims”?  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: [e-mail]     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **
