Summary

I've spent the last few days buried in my writing vault, and I came out with something special. Over 800,000 words, 141 ideas in one file, and a song I forgot I wrote. Today I'm pulling a handful of those gems off the shelf and dusting them off for you. These are the simple truths I keep coming back to after 20 years. Do what makes your heart sing. Explore. Stay nice. Keep it simple. None of it is complicated, but all of it works. Come find your click with me. Featured Story Years ago, I wanted our listeners to have an anthem. A song you could blast in the morning, stand up, and feel ready to take on your day. So I wrote one. We used it for a dozen years, and people would literally climb up on chairs at our events and shout the words back at me. Then it got old. Podcasting changed. The song sat on the shelf collecting dust. But while digging through the vault this week, I found those jingle lyrics again. And I made a decision. I pulled it down, walked it back into the studio, and rebuilt it for 2026. Important Points Don't wait for what makes your heart sing to pay you. Do it, work your tail off, and make the money come to you. If you're stuck in neutral, don't sit there trying to think your way out. Stand up and take one real step first. When you're trying to figure something out, stop forcing it and just look for the click. You'll know it when it lands. Memorable Quotes I'm saying do what makes your heart sing, work your ass off, and make the money come. To me, there's no difference. Stand up, take a step, repeat. When you move and lean forward, you get something. When you stop, you get nothing. Nobody got out of bed today planning to motivate you. So you might as well get up and do it for yourself today. Scott's Three-Step Approach Start by naming the one thing that makes your heart sing today, even if it feels small. That's your direction. Then stand up and take one real step toward it. Don't sit there overthinking it, just lean forward and move now. Finally, keep moving forward until you feel the click. When it lands, pat yourself on the butt and say, I done good.

Whether you want to grow personally or grow with your business or your profession or any place in between. And don't you find that when you have a goal to maybe get a raise or to have a better relationship, it'd be happier, that it's usually the in-between is the problem. It's not the thing you want. It's not what you do. It's the in-between you get confused. We spend a lot of time there and do some of that today too as well. Life begins when you move, no doubt about that. And we refuse to let life get in the way. Anyway, it's me, Scott Smith, good to have you. Yeah, digging through the vault today, I have written about 800,000 plus words. How do I know that? Well, because I use Scrivener from my writing program I have for many, many years. It's pretty much since it came out. I can very quickly look and see how much I've written. I've probably spoken many millions of words, but I've written about 800,000. I'd have to write a book, which I haven't done yet. So I think the second half of the year, don't say it, Scott, don't put it out there.

2:18.3

Do not do it.

2:35.0

Yeah, it's all my mind. I think I'm going to do it. It's kind of an edit project at this point in it. But I'm going through. And I said, you know, this is kind of cool. But I'm also going through it for another reason. Because I've always wanted to have a community again. I haven't had a real vibrant community for a very long time.

3:24.4

We kind of moved over to Facebook and that's what you know about Facebook, right? It's kind of like scroll and just watch it and nobody really gets involved anymore. So I don't like that. I want an involved community. I want to get together with you. So many people around the world listen to this show. So we've been building that behind the scenes and it's about ready to go, but I need you. So if you'd like to join us, it's free, by the way. Yeah, no cost there. Just a podcast. Go to Motivation2move.com. All spelled out, Motivation, t-o-M-O-V-E.com. Look for the very silver-haired gentleman on the front of the website. You'll know you're in the right place.

However, if you guys just come storming in and I get like a thousand people right away, I might open it.
