We've all heard "it is what it is." True story. It is. BUT, it can be what it can be - if we change our programming. None of us were born to just exist. We were born to succeed. We were born for greatness. Don't settle for less. Settling is the easiest thing we can do. Settling is also the worst thing we can do if we desire more. Re-program yourself for more. David tells you how in 5 simple steps. Re-proamming yourself is rank. Thi...
Old dogs. New tricks. New Story. To overcome what's been hardwired into your brain, you're gonna have to override it with better reactions. You're gonna have to crave better. Constantly. It takes information. It takes applied effort. It takes repetitive responsibility. You can't up your game if you're constantly throwing blame. Smart dogs know this. Productive dogs do something to improve things - at any age. That's rank. Think Ran...
If your native language is negative, it's time to learn a new one. You can wallow in where you exist with a "that's just the way things are" attitude, or you CAN change the way to speak to yourself (your language) for more powerful life results. If you've settled for less, know that you can have more. You were designed for more. It starts with speaking to yourself with a new language. Start. Start now. You can. That's rank. Think R...
Serious, impactful, lasting change requires effort. You have to be motivated to start the process. Disgust is a great motivator. Get disgusted then get busy. You've got work to do.

Life is not a popularity contest. Day in and day out, your opinion of yourself is what determines your successes.

Lean into and out-manuever what wants to hold you back. You can. Always. That's rank. Think Rank.

You gotta believe. You can tell yourself good, positive, productive things, but unless you truly believe them, it's not gonna work. Your subconscious mind won't believe it.

There are no "how to lose" books in the library. Just reading the self help books won't work either until you have a better self image. Nothing works until you learn to believe in yourself. Becoming the winner you are supposed to be isn't easy, but you can give yourself a chance. Everyday. Take the strange out of change by having a better self image. David talks about a smiple excercise to help you get there. It's easy to do and wo...
You can't outperform you're identity. Your conscious mind is the gatekeeper to your subconscious. In other words, you are what you tell yourself you are. That's all your subconscious hears. Your subconscious never sleeps and it doesn't have a sense of humor. It takes you at your word. Your output comes from what you input. This episode has some powerful output on what you input into your subconscious. You can change when you choose...

Man up. Own up. You don't get from life what you want. You get from life who you are. Your identity is your destiny. You can never outperform your identity. Change is possible. It starts in your subconscious. Not on the surface. Change is rank. Think Rank.
Almost doesn't get you there. Plan. Commit. Execute. That's what winners do. That's what works. Do your thinking before you nod your head. Do your thinking in training.

Think Rank.

There is no wiggle room when it comes to the laws of the universe. We didn't make them. We can't change them. We sure struggle when we don't follow them, even when we thought what we knew to do was the right thing. . No matter what we've learned, we can re-learn. Accept change. Welcome it. You don't lose unless you give up on yourself. That's rank. Think Rank.
Do you ever look in the mirror to see who's limiting you today? Maybe it's time to align your abilities with your possibilities, to acknowledge your fears and adventure on. The opposite of fear is peace. It's not as far away as you may think. Peace is rank. Think Rank.
The only thing that lies between you and greatness is you. You don't get better in a comfort zone. Who do you wanna be? Who do you wanna beat? Why are you practicing? What are you practicing? What are you giving up for greatness? Question yourself. Demand more of yourself. Love the journey. That's rank. Think Rank.
Thought and thinking. Noun and verb. Success and setback. They're all related. They're not opposites. Knowing the subtle differences can help you make huge, lasting changes in your everyday outcomes. It can make your long range results better than you ever expected. Really. That's rank. Think Rank.

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
