Coffee With Dave - The Daily Grind: Recent Episodes
David King
The Daily Grind can become the perfect blend of life leadership by taking ownership of your current situation, embracing critical thinking and emotional responses to improve daily actions. Discover the art of sustainability and survivability.
When we understand our emotional reaction and emotional response we can blaze our own trail. Until then we continue to fluff our lines.
All or nothing thinking- • If you're not with me, you'r against me. • So-and-so is all good/bad. • Because this wasn't a complete success, it is a total failure.
This is extreme thinking- associated with depression and frustration. Oh, and make your God damned bed. If you change your story, you can change your life.

An altercation, a whisper of discontent, "he said" "she said" What exactly? Do you look at things pragmatically? Or like most, create a thousand reasons to be anxious and angry.
Oh, and make your God damned bed. If you change your story, you can change your life.

My Dad glanced over his shoulder, smiled and waved.
I said goodbye, but changed it to 'cheerio' as goodbye felt like forever.
For some reason I was scared. I was 11 yrs old.
He never came home.
Tony King died that day.

The candles are blown out to a loud cheer, followed by a weak attempt at 'hip hip hoor-fukn-ray'
Then we all go back to our internal shit storm.
The word 'Joy' is thrown around casually.
I'm overjoyed..
She is a joy to be around..
It's a joyous occasion..
That's not true 'Joy' it's more like cheer.. and cheer is like a candle in a snow storm, lasts no length.
Oh, and make your God damned bed.

Are we condescending on purpose?
Do we allow others to lord privilege over us?
"Some people are sharp and others dull; some are raised in a better environment, others in worse, the latter, having inferior habits and nurture, will require more by way of proof and careful instruction to master these teachings and to be formed by them - in the same way that bodies in a bad state must be given a great deal of care when perfect health is sought."

Workaholic's always make excuses for their selfishness.
"When you see someone often flashing their rank or position, or someones whose name is often bandied about in public, don't be envious; such things are bought at the expense of life.. Some die on the first rungs of the ladder of success, others before they can reach the top, and the few that make it to the top of their ambition through a thousand indignities realize at the end it's only for an inscription on their gravestone."
- Seneca

Pull the covers over your head, hide from your purpose. When will you realise people depend on you. You might be in turmoil, a dark place but you have a purpose. You have a reason to get out of bed every day. Life is not about you, it's about your positive impact on others.

Forgive them because they don't know. Does forgiveness empower you?
Does forgiveness strip the power of the aggressor?
"As Plato said, every soul is deprived of truth against its will. The same holds true for justice, self-control, goodwill to others, and every similar virtue. It's essential to constantly keep this in you mind, for it will make you more gentle to all."

You try something.
Your circle-
• Laugh, you can't do it
• Its not for you
• You don't need change
• Your useless
• I don't agree
• Do it (Please fail)
• You won't succeed
Self doubt, you give up.
Your circle-
• Told you so
I record off the cuff.
Why?
I speak with emotion, self belief, I try and stay humble despite sometimes wanting to scream, grab you and shake the life out of you.

"To what service is my soul comited? Constantly ask yourself this and thoroughly examine yourself by seeing how you relate to that part called the ruling principle. Whose soul do I have now? Do I have that of a child, a youth.... a tyrant, a pet, or a wild animal?"

A 'life leader' leads. Are you always copied? Your dress? Your hairstyle? Your sayings? Your social media? Have you considered yourself to be a leader? "One person, on doing well by others, immediately accounts the expected favour in return. Another is not so quick, but still considers the person a debtor and knows the favour. A third kind of person acts as if not conscious of the deed, rather like a vine producing a cluster of grapes without making further demands, like a horse after it's race, or a dog after it's walk, or a bee after making its honey. Such a person, having done a good deed, won't go shouting from rooftops but simply moves on to the next deed just like the vine produces another bunch of grapes in the right season."
- Marcus Aurelius

This is what life is all about, I'm buzzing, read the first line and watch the video.
"Enough of this miserable, whining life. Stop monkeying around! Why are you troubled? What's new here? What's so confounding? The one responsible? Take a good look. Or just the matter itself? Then look at that. There's nothing else to look at. And as far as the gods go, by now you could try being more straightforward and kind. It's the same, whether you've examined these things for a hundred years, or only three."

This touched me, deep and thought provoking.
Each day we shatter dreams, destroy imagination, restrict positive thinking.
Our kids crave amazement and endless possibilities of fairy tales and legends.
We kick that idea into touch with facts.
Are we missing the moral of the story?
"This is what you should teach me, how to be like Odysseus- how to love my country, wife and father, and how, even after suffering shipwreck, I might keep sailing on course to those honourable ends."

The opposite is the weak and degenerate one, who struggles with and has a poor regard for the order of the world, and seeks to correct the faults of the Gods rather than their own." - Seneca. Oh, and make your God damned bed.

What type of person will be at your death bed? How we navigate life determines self fulfilment, is attack or defence the way forward? "Fortune doesn't have the long reach we suppose, she can only lay siege to those who hold her tight. So, let's step back from her as much as possible."
- Seneca

Afraid to ask for help, I blamed myself for my Father's death.
"Don't be ashamed of needing help. You have a duty to fulfill just like a soldier on the wall of battle. So what if you are injured and can't climb up without another soldier's help?"
- Marcus Aurelius

I don't listen, I don't give time, I don't connect or communicate on a energy level, I fail my family by not pausing and giving my full attention.
I try, and I'll continue to try.
By far my most heartfelt video. "Every event has two handles- one by which it can be carried, and one by which it can't. If your brother does you wrong, don't grab it by his wronging, because this is the handle incapable of lifting it. Instead, use the other- that he is your brother, that you were raised together, and then you will have hold of the handle that carries."
- Epictetus
"To the youngster talking nonsense Zeno said, "The reason why we have two ears and only one mouth is so we might listen more and talk less."
- Diogenes
A little mention for Matt Burke "Mind your little self"

I want to do a podcast about this podcast, it is that important.
We live to fight, that's life, a constant battle, a short sharp battle.
"Don't you know life is like a military campaign? One must serve on watch, another in reconnaissance, another on the front line...
So it is for us- each person's life is a kind of battle, and a long and varied one too. You must keep watch like a soldier and do everything commanded.. You have been stationed in a key post, not some lowly place, and not for a short time but for life."
- Epictetus
Oh, and make your God damned bed.
If you change your story, you can change your life.
No plan survives contact. Can you adapt? Are you flexible or do you need constant direction?
Mike Tyson said no plan survives a punch in the face. "In this way you must understand how laughable it is to say, 'Tell me what to do!' What advice could I possibly give? No, a far better request is, 'Train my mind to adapt to any circumstance.' .... In this way, if circumstances take you off script... you won't be desperate for a new prompting." - Epictetus
Oh, and make your God damned bed.
If you change your story, you can change your life.
Your digging a hole. When a curve ball hits us out of the blue common sense tells us to deal with it in a positive way.
The monkey brain hands you a shovel and you start digging.
"How much more harmful are the consequences of anger and grief than the circumstances that aroused them in us."
- Marcus Aurelius
Oh, and make your God damned bed.
If you change your story, you can change your life.
Listen to this and tell me you can't, take 5 minutes, oh you have no time? Listen to this and see what other excuses you tell yourself.
"If you find something very difficult to achieve yourself, don't imagine it impossible- for anything possible and proper for another person can be achieved as easily by you."
- Marcus Aurelius
Oh, and make your God damned bed.
If you change your story, you can change your life.
I want to run. No walk. But I want to run. No walk.
Do I go left or right?
No. I go brick by brick building my own path.
"We like to say that we don't get to choose our parents, that they were given by chance - yet we can truly choose whose children we'd like to be."
- Seneca
"You must build up your life action by action, and be content if each one achieves its goal as far as possible- and no one can keep you from this. But there will be some external obstacle! Perhaps, but no obstacle to acting with justice, self control, and wisdom. But what if some other area of my action is thwarted? Well, gladly accept the obstacle for what it is and shift your attention to what is given, and another action will immediately take it's place, one that better fits the life you are building."
- Marcus Aurelius
Oh, and make your God damned bed.

In the supermarket are you the person who constantly changes cashier to find the fastest route?
Or do you stick to your guns?
"Think of those who, not by fault of inconsistency but by lack of effort, are too unstable to live life as they wish, but only live as they have begun."
- Seneca
Oh, and make your God damned bed.
If you change your story, you can change your life.
Man on fire.
Nobody enjoys a pity party so step up and take ownership.
Who's to blame for your current situation?
The world?
No.
You.
"We cry to God Almighty, how can we escape this agony? Fool, don't you have hands? Or could it be God forgot to give you a pair? Sit and pray your nose doesn't run! Or, rather just wipe your nose and stop seeking a scapegoat."
- Epictetus

The first two things before action "The first thing to do- don't get worked up. For everything happens according to the nature of all things, and in a short time you'll be nobody and nowhere, even as the great emperors Hadrian and Augustus are now. The next thing to do- consider carefully the task at hand for what it is, while remembering that your purpose is to be a good human being. Get straight to doing what nature requires of you, and speak as you see most just and fitting- with kindness, modesty, and sincerity." - Marcus Aurelius. Oh, and make your God damned bed.
If you change your story, you can change your life.
Sweat the small stuff - It is not the making of your bed that counts, its the action step that breeds success. "Well-being is realized by small steps, but is truly no small thing."
- Zeno (or Socrates?l
It's the small daily wins that map out your life route, create momentum and breed confidence.
Oh, and make your God damned bed.

Hurt people, hurt people.
Stop caring what people think!
"I'm constantly amazed by how easily we love ourselves above all others, yet we put more stock in the opinions of others than in our own estimation of self... How much credence we give to the opinions our peers have of us and how little to our very own!"
- Marcus Aurelius

If you change your story, you can change your life.
If you want to find joy, get after it. Is true joy found in wealth or is it deeper than that?
"Joy for human beings lies in proper human work. And proper human work consists in: acts of kindness to other human beings, disdain for the stirrings of senses, identifying trustworthy impressions, and contemplating the natural order and all that happens in keeping with it."
- Marcus Aurelius

In this episode we take a peak at how in this crazy modern life we perceive the present moment, and ultimately how our perception is key to becoming more mindfully aware of how we live our day to day life.
A crushed mindset after the death of my father at 11 years of age led me on a path of emptiness and a desire to leave this world. Despite great life achievements nothing could fill the void. A fantastic 21 year military career retiring as Sergeant, a highly skilled Sniper and Military Survival Instructor, I have used my life experience to become a Psychological Motivator and Transition specialist. I lead life from the front, pulling no punches we poke the bear and take supreme ownership of exactly where we are in life right now. A blessed father of two young boys and a beautiful fiancée my passion is impacting others in a positive way.
A pivotal day in taking ownership of exactly where you are in life, we poke the bear and push your buttons to spark that internal flame, life leadership is a mindset skill, its not a given, its earned through self reflection.
