DARE TO SUCK
#101: Daily Mentoring with Trevor Crane on GreatnessQuest.com
SUMMARY
Today I’m in the Bahamas, on an island called, Exuma. And today’s we’re going to be talking about how if something’s worth doing, then it’s worth doing BADLY.
(At least at first.) As you can see from the title, the “secret” is to, “Dare to Suck.”
If you want to be great at anything, you must first get started and be willing to do badly or poorly at it. Dare to SUCK at it.
Just don’t stop. Don’t quit. Then soon, one day, you’ll find yourself not just getting better, but eventually mastering it.

WHAT ARE YOU GRATEFUL FOR?
#99: Daily Mentoring with Trevor Crane on GreatnessQuest.com
SUMMARY
It’s day 2 of our trip to Bahamas and I’m recording again, late at night.
And again, I’m walking with my son on the beach. And tonight I’d like to talk to you about GRATITUDE.
When things are going great, gratitude is easy. But when you’re facing challenges, being grateful can be hard. Probably, it’s the last thing on your mind.
But it’s the thing that can set you free.
Let me share with you a habit and a question that I developed years ago which shifted things for me when I was at the lowest moments of my life. It’s the habit of asking this one simple question every day: “What am I grateful for?”

WALKING AFTER MIDNIGHT
#98: Daily Mentoring with Trevor Crane on GreatnessQuest.com
SUMMARY
I’m recording this, after midnight, walking along on the beach at one of the coolest place on the planet. THE BAHAMAS!!!
(And my 5-month-old son is attached to me, dangling from my chest like my little mini-me, with his eyes wide-open.)
Apparently, it is NOT sleepy time.
Prior to arriving in the Bahamas, we had some challenges with our flight getting delayed one after the other.
I had two choices:
1. Get pissy about it, or
2. Enjoy the ride, (so to speak)
I don't know that there's really a “right” or “wrong” way to respond.
I'm not telling you HOW TO deal with shit that comes up in your life.
But, perhaps, maybe there's a better way to deal with all the “bad-stuff” that happens to you.
As for me?
I'm constantly looking at my circumstances, and try to figure out the best way to deal with what life gives me.
How about you?

THE HAVE-IT-ALL FORMULA
#97: Daily Mentoring with Trevor Crane on GreatnessQuest.com
SUMMARY & INTRO TO THE SHOW
What area(s) of your life, are you focused on improving EVERY DAY?
And I mean: EVERY-SINGLE-DAY.
Here’s the PROBLEM:
Most people will SUCCEED in one area of their life…
And STRUGGLE or SUFFER in other areas.
Successful in business? Your health or relationships suck.
Great relationship, or connection with God? Your business sucks.
What is it for you?
On today’s show, I’ll give you a little formula you can use to HAVE IT ALL.
*I DID NOT COME UP WITH IT.
But it is badass.
And you can START using it TODAY.
Think about this question for a minute:
Do you want to HAVE IT ALL?
Do you?
If so, what would that mean to you?
Guys, I don’t know ANYONE, ANYWHERE that has created such a SIMPLE SYSTEM to help you achieve the dream of… “having it all.”
I hope, for your sake, that you LISTEN to this podcast, and PRACTICE the SIMPLE discipline that I share inside of it.
If you don’t?
Well… you’ll REGRET it.
Seriously.
IN A NUT-SHELL:
In today’s episode, I’ll give you the “how to” HAVE IT ALL Formula.
For SIMPLICITY sakes, here it is in FOUR words.
(*WARNING: Don’t dismiss this because of its SIMPLICITY.)
BODY - Are you taking care of your body?
BEING - Do you meditate? Do you have a journal where you can record your thoughts?
BALANCE - How well do you communicate or connect with your loved ones?
BUSINESS - What did you discover and declare in your business?

What I Learned When I Was In Jail
#96: Daily Mentoring with Trevor Crane on GreatnessQuest.com
SUMMARY & INTRO TO THE SHOW
In today’s episode, I share a story that I've never shared on a public channel ever.
It has always scared me to share this story. and it has to do with what I learned.. when I went to jail.
Today is Independence Day.
And I’m thinking about the decisions we make that create “invisible walls” that hold us back and keep us from our freedom. That keep us from our independence.
I believe that we're all in jail. (In a way.)
We all have a self-jail that we've made for ourselves that LIMITS us in some way.

You Are The Author Of Your Story
#93: Daily Mentoring with Trevor Crane on GreatnessQuest.com
SUMMARY & INTRO TO THE SHOW
In today’s episode, I talk about storytelling. I believe that
You are the author of your own story.
You are the director of your movie.
You are lead.
You are the hero.
And it doesn’t matter where you are right now:
If you’re ON TOP? - The question is, "Where’s the next level?”
If you’re COMFORTABLE? - The question is the same.
(*WARNING, in this place it’s VERY easy to get bored, broken or broke.)
(I’m so bored, it makes me want to put a gun in my mouth and swallow the bullet.)
Of if you’re at the BOTTOM. - The question is often, “What the hell did I do to get here?!”
But a better question is, WHAT DO I WANT… which can be a pretty challenging question.
So whether you’re Broke, Bored, or a Baddass…
I think our goal is to find a way to Turn Tragedy Into Triumph
And to find THE NEXT LEVEL of our success.
If your life was a movie, and you were the director, how do you want it to end?
You have a story worth telling.
You have a message that matters.
Clarify your message
Create a message that matters.
So your customers will listen.
You don’t have to tell an amazing story, you just have to tell your story.
Embrace your story.
When you first think about storytelling, you think it has to be these “grand" ideas
But, it’s the simple ideas, that we all relate to, that have the most impact.
Stories of hardship, heartache and overcoming the odds.
SIMPLE 3-PART NARRATIVE:
Beginning > Middle > End
Setup > Struggle > Success
Title > Tragedy > Triumph
Construct > Conflict > Conclusion (celebration)
You are the author of your destiny.

Gay And Bisexual Pride Month
And How To Support Your LGBT Friends, Relatives And Co-Workers
#88: Daily Mentoring with Trevor Crane on GreatnessQuest.com
SUMMARY:
So it's Pride Month and today we’ll talk about what you need to know to support your LGBT friends, relatives and co-workers.
Look, I don’t care what you call it, gay pride month, pride month, LGBT month, the pride parade… whatever.
Pride Month offers numerous events where members of the LGBT community can celebrate who they are.
But June also is a good time for straight people to show support for their LGBT friends, relatives and co-workers.
About LGBT History Month
This is a month long annual observance and celebration for gay pride, gay men, gay women, bisexual and transgender history, and its related to one of our most important civil rights movements. Wikipedia
1. Ask what’s going on
2. Attend and have the time of your life
Pride events are geared toward anyone who feels like their sexual identity falls outside the mainstream -- although many straight people join in, too.
LGBT is an acronym meaning lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender. The term sometimes is extended to LGBTQ, or even LGBTQIA, to include queer, intersex and asexual groups. Queer is an umbrella term for non-straight people; intersex refers to those whose sex is not clearly defined because of genetic, hormonal or biological differences; and asexual describes those who don't experience sexual attraction.
These terms may also include gender fluid people, or those whose gender identity shifts over time or depending on the situation.
3. Listen without judgement
4. Love everybody
MORE ABOUT LGBT MONTH:
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month (LGBT Pride Month) is currently celebrated each year in the month of June to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots in Manhattan.
Today, celebrations include pride parades, picnics, parties, workshops, symposia and concerts, and LGBT Pride Month events attract millions of participants around the world. Memorials are held during this month for those members of the community who have been lost to hate crimes or HIV/AIDS. The purpose of the commemorative month is to recognize the impact that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals have had on history locally, nationally, and internationally.
In 1994, a coalition of education-based organizations in the United States designated October as LGBT History Month. In 1995, a resolution passed by the General Assembly of the National Education Association included LGBT History Month within a list of commemorative months.
LGBT History Month is also celebrated with annual month-long observances of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender history, along with the history of the gay rights and related civil rights movements. National Coming Out Day (October 11), as well as the first “March on Washington” in 1979, are commemorated in the LGBT community during LGBT History Month.
IN NYC & LGBTQIA+
As Pride Month continues, things are slated to get even more exciting with the 2018 New York City (NYC) Pride March aiming to celebrate members of the LGBTQIA+ community Sunday.
The first-ever gay pride parade in American history was held in NYC's Central Park on June 28, 1970. It occurred one year after the 1969 Stonewall Riots, which were multiple violent protests organized by members of the LGBT community after the NYPD raided known gay club Stonewall Inn. The parade served as a launching pad for other cities across the United States to hold their own respective marches. It's now commemorated annually, ultimately becoming an important civil rights movement.

Wikipedia has a great description of Gay Pride.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_pride
Gay pride or LGBT pride is the positive stance against discrimination and violence toward lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT)people to promote their self-affirmation, dignity, equality rights, increase their visibility as a social group, build community, and celebrate sexual diversity and gender variance. Pride, as opposed to shame and social stigma, is the predominant outlook that bolsters most LGBT rightsmovements throughout the world. Pride has lent its name to LGBT-themed organizations, institutes, foundations, book titles, periodicals and even a cable TV station and the Pride Library.

I HAVE BACK FAT
#87: Daily Mentoring with Trevor Crane on GreatnessQuest.com
SUMMARY & INTRO TO THE SHOW:
I have “back-fat.”
And, no, it’s NOT pretty. On today’s podcast, I talk about a little “challenge” I've been having that well...
I just didn’t know I had...
Sure, for a while now, my daughter and wife having been teasing me about my little “donut.”
In my mind, this “donut,” was a “tiny” little bit of “insulation” I had just on top of my “chiseled 6-pack.”
I don’t think this is the same thing my family was seeing.
The term “donut,” probably stems from an “accident” that occurs every once in a while, when I “accidentally” eat a whole box of donuts.
THIS IS NOT MY FAULT.
It’s the damned donuts.
SERIOUSLY, they shouldn’t be allowed in my house.
Anyways, understand this people -
“Sometimes, I have the ability to see things that are just, well... NOT THERE.”
EXAMPLE: When I used to drink, I’d all of sudden get:
SMARTER.
FUNNIER.
BETTER LOOKING.
TALLER.
STRONGER.
BRAVER.
Even a BETTER FIGHTER.
And just so we are CLEAR on this…
ALL of those things I AM NOT.
Certainly not when I’m drinking.
But enough about that “lie” I used to tell myself...
Now…
Up until today’s “EPIPHANY...”
I didn’t even know that there was a thing, called, “BACK FAT.”
So here’s how it went down...
I decided to take a REAL close look at myself in the mirror the other day.
I didn’t suck anything in.
I didn’t puff anything out.
I didn’t pump up my chest.
(Like I normally do.)
I just stood there.
Relaxed.
And let it all hang out.
And?...
I was SHOCKED by what I saw.
As I turned around, ogling myself from every conceivable angle…
I stopped.
“What the hell?”
“What in the FUCK is that?”
Ladies and gentlemen, I already told you this, but… “I HAVE BACK FAT.”
But DO NOT WORRY ABOUT ME!
All is not lost!!!
On today’s show I share with you a simple little strategy that you can use (and I am in the process of applying in my life), to SEE EXACTLY where you are at TODAY…
And use it as FUEL.
Possibly, you can use this as FUEL to take your “back-fat,” or whatever the equivalent is in your life, that you want to change...
And, use it to make a PLAN to get you WHERE YOU WANT TO GO.
I hope you enjoy the show.
(And my humiliation.)
My daughter just pointed out that I have FACE-FAT.
Thank you honey.
Oh, and one more thing…
If you’re thinking,
“Fuck you, Trevor. You’re not fat. F-U-C-K... Y-O-U…”
Well, it’s all relative.
And I get it.
Then again, and I mean this…
If I offended you - I’m sorry.
The point is to LOOK at YOURSELF and find something that you’d like to change.
Get REAL about it.
Then do SOMETHING to change it.
(And fuck you too. XOXOXOXOXO)

SUMMARY:
On today’s Daily Dose of Greatness quest, I talk about taking THE CANCER OF MAYBE. TRUST ME: It is a disease that needs to be REMOVED from your vocabulary.

Today’s challenge is to go on a “maybe” diet. Try to take the word “MAYBE” out of your vocabulary. Try it for 30-days.
Instead, choose to become a CLOSER.
Yes or no.
