In this talk, creative marketing professional and agency founder Brooke LeBeau explores how cultivating multiple professional outlets can strengthen careers, increase financial stability, and fuel long-term growth.

A Competitive Mindset of Abundance
Matt Freel, Founder/CEO, Phronetic Growth Solutions
TOPIC CATEGORY: Motivational
Request This Free SpeechJack Harbaugh would tell his children every day when he dropped them off at school, "Attack this day with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind." Jack arguably raised 2 of the top football coaches we've seen at the professional and collegiate levels. Competition is typically driven by the ego and desire to conquer one's opponent. Yet there is a much deeper form of competitiveness that we can tap into within ourselves that ultimately drives the best of the best. MORE >
This competition is focused on beating the inner-self that repeats all of the negative things we have ever heard or implied from others. Imagine attacking each day with an enthusiasm for gratitude that is incomprehensible to mankind. A strong mind determined to be grateful for everything that exists in and around out lives, will drive us further and faster than anything else we could ever imagine. -

We grow a beard
Shoot guns
Fight
Drink whiskey
Chase women and other mythsBut they’re all just behaviors... actions to cover up the little boy inside who is deeply confused and hurting. The world needs men to stand up, to lead and to train up the next generation of men.
