Summary
What legacy are you leaving? Andy and A.T. discuss this subject as well as some great listener feedback.
Most people never get a standing ovation.
- By helping others and adding value to other people we, in a sense, are giving them a “standing ovation.” The ripple effect of your actions will impact others in ways that you may never know.
How do we create a legacy?
- Know that everyone leaves a legacy, but not every legacy is a good one
- You start right now
- You need to read material that adds value
- Start living your life intentionally
- Catch people doing something right
Build on what you are so:
- Those who come behind you learn from your example
- Others can learn from what you know
- Others know why you make the choices you make
- Others know how you make the choices you make
Write principles that have been important to you down to pass on after you’re gone.
Questions for Listeners
• How are you creating your legacy? What are you doing on purpose to add to it?

| 0:20.1 | and simple principles |
| 0:21.2 | that once applied will change your life forever. On today's show, we're going to address the idea |
| 0:26.6 | of leaving a legacy. So with that, let me welcome back our friend, Andy Andrews. How you doing? |
| 0:32.9 | Good, A.T. How are you today? I am great. We got some, this topic came from some, just all this listener feedback. |
| 0:41.1 | We keep getting lots and lots of feedback and I'm trying to find a way to like get as much |
| 0:44.4 | as we can in the show because these people take the time of call and write. |
| 0:47.4 | So this idea is from some different pieces of listener feedback. |
| 0:52.9 | So I'm really excited about playing some voices and reading some emails. So you ready to go? Good. Okay. Yeah, good. Let's hear it. All right, here we go. Andy, hey, Matthew Henson here from Jacksonville, Florida. Just wanted to let you know that I was just in my Barnes & Noble store. And the clerk who was helping me find how do you kill 11 million people |
| 1:12.6 | was just having an awful night was had a big stack of books in her arms which is dropping them |
| 1:17.4 | everywhere and apologizing and it was amazing how i just helped her pick the books up and i just gave |
| 1:23.0 | her a big smile and i was having a sort of rough day myself, but the fact that we both shared |
| 1:29.7 | that little moment of just smiling and enjoying ourselves, you know, as we laughed and picked |
| 1:34.7 | up the books, it turned it from a chore into something we could kind of giggle about, and |
| 1:38.5 | I'd only met this person five minutes ago. So that principle was alive and well. The, uh, but the interesting thing |
| 1:46.0 | I wanted to tell you is that, um, even six, seven months after it's been released, she said |
| 1:52.0 | they cannot keep 11 million on the shelves. It just keeps flying off. So I just wanted to say |
| 1:57.4 | that's a great testament to, uh, to the work you've done, and it makes it |
| 2:01.7 | quite irritating for me to get my hands on a copy. |
| 2:04.8 | Love listening to In the Loop, and God Bless. |
