The Life Showdown: Recent Episodes
Andrew Love
What if you could completely revamp your life in a year???
I mean, what if you could actually change everything so it could be exactly what you wanted it to be.
Your career, relationships, impact, body, EVERYTHING...
Well, that's what I'm going to do. And I'm documenting the entire journey.
I'm going to completely revamp my life and record my ups, downs, and all-arounds.
I tried a big of an experiment with this one. I hope it hits you.

I'm working with someone in Bangladesh with a project. What a world. It's so small. Today I was speaking with people from all over the world for different reasons and I can see that this miracle of our time on this planet is...normal... Crazy!
Sorry I missed last night's episode...I had a good reason :)

I'm going all in.
I've drafted 2 other guys to it with me.
We're doing 75 Hard, but not just for ourselves, we're doing internal & external challenges to be better husbands, fathers, and men.

It's been wayyy too long since my last episode.
I've been 100% all in at work and it was either sink or swim. So I swam at work and sank in the podcast...
But I'm back now :)

I was starting to feel overly full until I realized it was just a concept.
Stress is often based upon assumptions. I was wrong to be stressed today.

I realized that coming home after an adventure is almost too much to handle for me at first.
The energy is too big...too different...it takes some adjusting.

I love my job because of what it allows me to provide for myself and others - FREEDOM.
Freedom of conversation.
Freedom to process your past.
Freedom to embrace a different future.
It's great :)

I don't like to do this kind of stuff much & especially talk about it...but every once in a while I test my capacity stumble into a specific bit of fortune.

I did OKAY tonight when speaking at an event and I realized how much I despise OKAY.
Next to Fantastic, Wonderful, Spectacular, etc, Okay is an abomination.

I haven't figured it out yet at all.

I don't.

One of the formerly best studios in the world has created the biggest stinker I've ever seen.

Sometimes, comfort really does kill.
And sometimes, discomfort saves.
I think the latter applies to how cold showers have kept me alive over the years.

I couldn't figure something very simple out this morning because I was frustrated.
Later in the day, when I was in a better mood, I figured it out.
Don't be stupid.
Don't be angry...stupid :)

As promised, here are the voice messages I sent as our house was flooding.
There is a lot of terror in my voice, but I also managed to somehow keep it together...
It's all good - now that everything sorted itself out.

After the flood kicked us out of our house, we found our way to San Jose in a small - cool condo...and then we got a free upgrade into a huge fancy condo.
Intense week. Fun life.

We had to leave our house because the couch was floating away...no exaggeration.
Now we're in San Jose in a fancy condo - which seems impossible.
Last night we almost slept outside of a bakery due to a tropical storm, and tonight we're living like yuppies. Go figure.

As our house flooded today...
All I could think was about whether we could sleep on the roof of our Airbnb during a rain storm.
Instead, we just walked and got a pizza...I guess you had to be there.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I embarked on this 365 journey, but I'm pleasantly surprised.
If you ever want some big changes to take place in your life, it's going to take many small steps - but how do you structure those steps???
21 days at a time :)

I'm traditionally not very good at computers. They are a means to an end, and I would love to never touch one again.
But alas, here I am typing on one...again.
Today's episode is all about how dealing with complicated software prevents me from pooping well.

I kind of like this 60 second podcast challenge - and I'll most likely do it again :)
Today I'm just recapping the spiritual wall I hit over the weekend and how I'm going to course correct.
Let's go.

I hate technology...unless it's really easy to use or serves me in some way :)
But most of the time I hate it. And right now, I'm not speaking to my computer.
Take that...computer.
Incidentally, this was written on my computer.

This week I started to feel the resurgence of my connection to a tender sensation known as the Holy Spirit.
I rekindled my relationship with Christian music and my heart started to engorge as it used to.
What in the hell am I talking about? Listen to the episode, you goose.

If you can't trust yourself, who can you trust?
If you can't believe ideas that you suggest to yourself...how can you...get hypnotized...that metaphor went off the rails.
Anyway, I couldn't sleep last night, so I PUT myself back to sleep - by self hypnosis.

If I could, I'd sue. But I can't, so I'll just podcast about it :)

Everything has limits. Even APARENTLY me.
I realized that there's only so much output you can handle without paying a pretty big price.
Today, my price is feeling like I got hit by a baseball bat :)

If you have kids, then you probably DON'T have any personal space. At least not much.
This has been a battle royal within my head & heart lately - especially while on vacation. Let's talk about it.

I'm far from done thinking, tinkering, and pontificating about the notion of 'being legendary'.
I had a new, insightful experience that I want to share with you on the topic. Let's go.

When things flow, they really just...flow.
I just started a company in the middle of my day without knowing I was going to do that when I woke up. It was exactly what needed to happen and I'm so glad it did.
Let's get into it :)

This is the clearest I've felt in a loooooooooong time. I honestly just need to do NOTHING for a few weeks (cough...a month) in order for me to make a clear path forward.
This podcast and this year long experiment were a FANTASTIC idea!!!

There are moments that present themselves to us each and every day that are invitations to BEING LEGENDARY.
The problem is we either don't see them, or we don't go after them.
Today, I'm talking about how I literally chickened out (story about chicken) on being legendary today on my way home, and how I plan on changing my life to be more legendary this next year :)

When most people feel stuck, they wish things could be different. Or they try to change their circumstance all at once.
But when momentum is on your side, nothing can halt you - because you have become an UNSTOPPABLE FORCE.
Right now I'm working on building that momentum in my life because, well, it's not there.

Most people confuse sensuality with sexuality. They can be conjoined but are in fact very much mutually exclusive.
Today I want to bring up the importance of sensuality in MY life and why I believe it should take a front seat in all the things I'm trying to accomplish in life.
Enjoy :)
So, I'm actually doing it...I'm actually starting my daily podcast for the next 1 year. I'm doing it because, well, I have to.
This is episode 1 of 365.
The journey of completely revamping my life begins here and now.
Welcome.
