Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes The Strangest Secret: 7 Simple Rules May 30, 2025 | Episode 5105 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description I had a rough week getting lectured by my dentist and dermatologist, but let’s end on a high note! Today, I’m sharing Earl Nightingale’s timeless wisdom from “The Strangest Secret”–the inspiration that got me into this business. These seven simple principles can transform your life, but only if you apply them. Earl Nightingale did over 5,000 radio programs; his insights are just as relevant today as they were decades ago. Featured Story Scott shares the fascinating origin story of Earl Nightingale’s “The Strangest Secret.” Created to motivate insurance salesmen while Nightingale was out of town. This spoken-word recording accidentally became the first gold record of its kind. What started as a simple motivational tool for his sales team launched Nightingale’s entire career and inspired countless people, including Scott himself. Important Points You become what you think, so focus your mental energy on what you want, not what you’re stuck in. Success requires paying the price through time, discipline, and investment — nothing worthwhile comes without effort. Controlling your thoughts is neuroscience in action; let thoughts come and go without dwelling on them. Memorable Quotes “You become what you think. Whatever’s going on inside your mind right now is what you will become.” “To get success that’s not earned will never last. You must earn it.” “The secrets of success are indeed strange, and if you take the hype out of it, it comes down to the real basics of life.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Control your thoughts by acknowledging them without dwelling on negative patterns. Set clearly defined goals that are specific enough to know exactly what you’re accomplishing. Act promptly when your path becomes clear instead of waiting for the “perfect” time.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Wisdom of Wives: What Women Have Taught Me About Life May 29, 2025 | Episode 5104 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description In this episode, I discuss the valuable lessons I’ve learned from the women in my life—my wives, moms, daughters, and other influential women. I share wisdom from historical figures like Abigail Adams and Eleanor Roosevelt, exploring how women have shaped my perspective on life, relationships, and personal growth. From the “look” that every married man knows about the constructive power of silence, I reflect on how women’s wisdom has guided me through nearly two decades of podcasting and life itself. Featured Story Scott reflects on his relationships with the important women in his life, sharing personal insights about marriage, wisdom, and the complementary roles that men and women play together. He weaves personal anecdotes with historical quotes from first ladies and influential women, creating a tribute to the feminine wisdom that has shaped his journey over 19 years of podcasting. Important Points Women possess a unique wisdom that often guides and “tames” the men in their lives, creating balance in relationships. True strength is revealed when women face challenging situations - they rise to the occasion with remarkable resilience. Marriage is an active verb, not a passive noun. It requires daily effort and intentional love to make it work. Memorable Quotes “Wisdom and penetration are the fruit of experience, not the lessons of retirement and leisure.” “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” “Marriage is not a noun. It’s a verb. It isn’t something you get. It’s something you do.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Pay attention to the wisdom of the women around you and actively listen to their insights. Recognize that men and women are different but complementary, bringing unique strengths to relationships. Apply the lessons learned from feminine wisdom to become a better partner, father, and human being. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

If You Were Born Today, What Would You Do Differently? 11:17

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes If You Were Born Today, What Would You Do Differently? May 28, 2025 | Episode 5103 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description What if you woke up this morning completely brand new? Scott explores the powerful “do-over day” concept and challenges you to think beyond minor tweaks and adjustments. After surveying dozens of people about what they’d do if they were born today with all their current knowledge and skills, the answers might surprise you. This isn’t about reworking what you’re already doing—it’s about discovering what you truly want and why you’re not already doing it. Featured Story Scott shares the results of his informal survey asking people what they would do if they had a complete do-over day. From clients to ChatGPT, he gathered responses that revealed something fascinating: most people want to rework their current situation rather than imagine something entirely new. The top answers included not drinking, exercising more, paying better attention to family, and managing money more effectively—but the real question becomes, if you know what you’d do differently, why aren’t you doing it now? Important Points The biggest obstacles to change aren’t logical limitations, but emotional comfort zones, obligations, and fear-based excuses that keep you from becoming who you could be. Most people, when given the chance for a completely fresh start, still think in terms of tweaking their current life rather than imagining something entirely new and different. True personal growth requires digging beneath surface-level changes to discover the deeper truths about what you really want and why you’re holding yourself back. Memorable Quotes “You want something new and different? Accept it. That’s what you want.” “You have total freedom to do whatever you want to do. You can do it.” “Until you start digging down in the truth underneath it, you’re not going to get the true change you want.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Ask yourself what you would do if you were born today with all your current knowledge, skills, and resources—then push beyond reworking your current situation to imagine something completely new. Identify the real reasons you’re not already making the changes you know you want, recognizing that comfort zones and fear-based excuses are emotionally valid but logically questionable. Start the self-discovery process by having honest conversations with yourself about who you could become if you were willing to go down that road.

Why Knowing What You DON'T Want 11:12

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Why Knowing What You Don’t Want Is Better Than Knowing What You Do Want 05-27-25 | Episode - 5102 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description In this episode, I share a powerful lesson I learned from women in my life, particularly divorced women who taught me something counterintuitive about making positive changes. While most motivational advice tells you to focus on what you want, I’ve discovered that starting with what you don’t wish to can be far more effective. This isn’t about dwelling on negativity or being unmotivated. It’s about crystalizing what’s not working in your life right now so you can create the space for what you actually want to emerge. Featured Story I share stories from conversations with divorced women who’ve completed their “mandatory year off” and are ready for new relationships. When asked what they’re looking for in a partner, they always start with what they don’t want - and there’s wisdom in that approach. One memorable conversation involved a woman who said she didn’t want a man with a motorcycle, only to discover she loved motorcycles. The actual issue wasn’t the bike; her ex-husband used it to ride around with someone half her age. Understanding what you don’t want helps clarify what you want. Important Points Identifying what you don’t want isn’t negative thinking. Practical awareness motivates positive change. Most people are already thinking about what’s bothering them anyway, so why not use that natural tendency constructively? Once you see what you don’t like about your current situation, what you want becomes magically revealed to you. Memorable Quotes “You had garbage going on today. That’s what you don’t like today. That’s your problem today.” “If you will look at what you don’t like that’s going on and then realize it and start changing it, life changes.” “There’s always going to be bugs. Just get the better bugs.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Look honestly at what you don’t like that’s happening in your life right now, without judgment. Realize these situations and acknowledge them as your starting point for change. Let this clarity motivate you to create the opposite actively; your actual desires will become clear.

If You See It, You Can Change It 11:03

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes If You See It, You Can Change It 05-26-25 | Episode 5101 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description On this Memorial Day edition of the Daily Boost, I share one of the most powerful principles I’ve discovered through years of coaching: if you see it, you can change it. Most people struggle because they’re blind to what’s happening. When you can’t see the problem, you can’t fix it. I’ll walk you through my proven process for gaining awareness, eliminating what you don’t love, and creating space for what makes you happy. This isn’t about making massive changes overnight. It’s about those little boosts that change everything. Featured Story I share insights from recent coaching sessions where clients discovered that awareness is their greatest power. One client couldn’t manage day-to-day finances, but once he realized the problem, we had a tactical system to fix it. The magic happens when you eliminate what you don’t love and hold space for what you love. Most people fix one problem only to fill that peaceful space with another problem. I’ll show you how to break that cycle. Important Points Awareness is your power in everything - if you can see something and understand it for what it is, you can change it. The tactical process involves realizing what you don’t like, getting a system to eliminate it, then holding that peaceful space instead of filling it with fresh problems. When you create space and get to a peaceful base, you default into the things that make you happy - it’s much simpler than you think. Memorable Quotes “If you see it, you can change it - if you notice something, you can change it.” “It’s those little bitty things, those changes, sometimes that bit of motivation, that make all the difference in the world.” “When you get relaxed, when you don’t have a problem in the world, what do you do? It’s much simpler than that glamorous thing you think you’re looking for.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Become aware of what’s happening in your life by stopping to observe what’s going on around you. - use a daily awareness practice to see. Get a tactical system or process to eliminate the problems and things you don’t love doing that are holding you back. Hold the peaceful space you’ve created and do more of what you love instead of filling it with fresh problems. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

In this upbeat Friday episode, Scott shares his game-changing “How Do I Feel” strategy that he’s used for over 30 years. This simple yet powerful technique helps you predetermine your emotional responses before situations trigger unwanted feelings. Perfect for anyone who’s tired of letting unexpected moments ruin their day! Featured Story Scott reveals how asking yourself “How do I want to feel?” before triggering situations transforms your emotional responses. He explains that taking five minutes to anticipate scenarios and decide on your feelings in advance removes the surprise element that causes emotional reactions. This strategy session approach has been part of Scott’s toolkit for decades and forms the basis of his coaching philosophy. Key Takeaways You are an emotional creature, and controlling your feelings puts you in control of your life. Predetermining your emotional responses to potential triggers eliminates surprise, which typically causes adverse reactions.

Memorable Quotes “He who takes, or she who takes control of their emotions is the winner.” “If you do that question, ‘How do I want to feel?’, you will change how you live your life.” “When you’re not surprised, you don’t get triggered.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Start your day by writing “How do I want to feel today?” and decide your emotional state. Take 5 minutes to list potential trigger scenarios and predetermine how you’ll feel when they occur. When unexpected events happen, ask yourself, “How do I want to feel right now?” to regain emotional control. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes 4 Steps to Discovering Your Purpose Today May 22, 2025 | Episode 5099 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Ever feel stuck trying to find your passion? In this episode, Scott breaks down his proven 4-step formula to discover what truly lights you up. No fancy gimmicks or complicated strategies—just straightforward advice that gets results. Scott shares personal stories (including his recent baptism!) and drops wisdom bombs about facing fears that hold you back—this one’s for anyone ready to live boldly and reject passivity. Featured Story Scott shares powerful advice from Pastor Andrew that’s been transforming his coaching clients: “Live boldly, reject passivity, lead sacrificially.” This simple yet profound statement has become Scott’s guiding principle for helping others overcome their fears and face their passions. Rather than searching endlessly for purpose, Scott encourages listeners to summon the courage to face the passion they already know exists. Key Takeaways Fear is a good motivator, but its power disappears once the problem is solved - you need something more sustainable. Finding your passion isn’t complicated - it’s about exploration, paying attention, and having the courage to follow what naturally fascinates you. The formula is simple: Exploration + Fascination = Facing Your Passion. Memorable Quotes “Motivation is sometimes a good kick in the butt, maybe a come-to-Jesus conversation.” “Live boldly, reject passivity, lead sacrificially.” “The biggest thing that holds us back from doing the things we love is that we’re afraid to do it.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Explore possibilities without commitment - just put your toe in the water and see what catches your attention. Pay attention to what keeps grabbing your interest naturally and follow that urge to explore further. Take a deep dive when you find yourself fascinated - don’t be surprised if it’s something you’ve never considered before. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Relationship Blueprint Nobody Taught You May 21, 2025 | Episode 5098 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Are your relationships not progressing the way you hoped? Whether romantic, professional, or casual friendships, every relationship follows a natural process. In today’s episode, Scott reveals the four crucial stages determining whether your connection will thrive or dive. Stop trying to rush what can’t be rushed! With over 1100 episodes of relationship wisdom under his belt, Scott shares the simple framework that’s been working since the beginning of time. Featured Story Scott shares a touching moment when a long-time listener mentions they “had kids together”—meaning the listener didn’t have children when they started tuning in, but now those kids are heading to college! It was a powerful reminder of how many lives Scott has impacted over the years. As he jokingly told his wife, “I’ve got several hundred thousand kids,” having been there through listeners’ relationship journeys for nearly two decades. Key Takeaways If a relationship is going well, keep nurturing it daily rather than rushing toward some imagined finish line. The quality of your life directly depends on your relationships – we’re tribal creatures who crave genuine human connection. Even in our increasingly digital world, people crave in-person connection more than ever – it’s why we’ll pay hundreds for concert tickets just to be together. Memorable Quotes “If it’s going well, keep going. Do your best to keep it going, make it exciting, whatever it happens to be.” ‘ “The quality of your life depends on the quality of your relationships.” “The number one rule in relationship building is curiosity.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Be genuinely curious about others rather than trying to rush relationships–curiosity is always the essential first stage. Become enlightened by allowing interest to grow naturally, deepening your connection. Recognize when you’re reaching the commitment stage and be ready to take decisive action when the time is right.

Why the Speed of the Leader Determines Everything 11:23

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Why the Speed of the Leader Determines Everything May 20, 2025 | Episode - 5097 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Ever wonder what separates natural leaders from those who play the part? In this energizing episode, Scott dives into the essence of authentic leadership after some thought-provoking client conversations this week. He challenges you to ask: “Is your hair on fire for success?” Whether you’re leading a team, a family, or just yourself, Scott reveals why passion is the ultimate fuel that powers your journey and inspires others to follow. You’ll discover why the “speed of the leader” dictates everything—and how to balance urgent action with intentional progress. Featured Story Scott shares a candid leadership conversation with a client who initially wanted to teach leadership but realized that wasn’t his true calling. Through their discussion, Scott explores his belief that great leaders often have something innate—they naturally step up and leave you wondering, “How did they get so wise?” This real-world example perfectly illustrates why authentic leadership isn’t about training or titles—it’s about having your “hair on fire” for success and holding space for others to join your mission. Key Takeaways The leader's speed determines the pack's speed—when you move forward with passion and purpose, everyone around you naturally follows suit. Success loves speed, but sometimes moving with intent matters more than moving fast, especially when your journey takes longer than expected. Great leaders are often born with natural qualities, but what truly sets them apart is their burning passion and ability to cast a compelling vision that others want to follow. Memorable Quotes “Is your hair on fire for success? When you’re that passionate, you hold space and pour belief in people so they’ll follow you.” “The speed of the leader, the speed of the pack. When the leader is moving forward, the faster the leader goes, the faster everybody else goes.” “Most people are just waiting to be led. Everybody on this planet runs around with their umbilical cord, looking for somebody to plug it into.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Know your goals and take massive, perfect action toward them—this is always the key to speeding up success and inspiring others. Crank up your energy and urgency so others feel your passion and naturally support your mission. Balance speed with intent—sometimes it’s about patiently continuing in the right direction rather than rushing to a destination.

In this energizing episode, Scott shares his personal journey of hip replacement surgery and the unexpected mental battle that followed. He explores how even the most positive people sometimes need to vent—and why that’s okay. This episode reveals how temporary setbacks fuel your motivation when approaching them with the right mindset. Featured Story Scott takes us behind the scenes of his hip replacement journey from a year ago. Despite being a self-described “super performer,” he struggled with his identity shift and frustrating physical limitations. Through consistent effort and the wisdom of those around him, Scott discovered that the journey itself, not just the destination, is where true transformation happens. Key Takeaways Even the most positive people have moments of frustration, but how you frame those moments determines your path forward. Consistency over time leads to breakthroughs—Scott’s one-year journey proves that patience and persistence pay off. Your identity and how you view yourself can be your biggest obstacle when facing physical challenges. Memorable Quotes “Exploring the possibilities and growing in my life is the number one thing that drives me. And I think it drives you, too.” “Eventually, I will arrive and become who I want to be.” “Just when you think it’s good, you know something will mess with you. It’s just going to happen.” Scott’s Three-Step Approach Stand up, take a step, repeat—no matter what gets in the way. Recognize that the journey is what it’s all about, not just the destination.

Moving Forward When You Can't See The Path Ahead 11:34

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Moving Forward When You Can't See The Path Ahead May 16, 2025 | Episode 5095 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Ever feel like your goals are as challenging as climbing Mount Everest? In this episode, Scott explores what it means to move forward no matter what, and when you might need to reassess. After a busy week craving a well-earned break, Scott shares his insights on goal-setting, perseverance, and knowing when a goal is truly worthy of your effort—a perfect mix of motivation and practical wisdom to end your week. Featured Story Scott shares a robust conversation with a client who compared their goal to climbing Mount Everest without oxygen. This metaphor opens up a crucial question we all need to ask: Is what you're pursuing truly worthy of the risks you're taking? When you find something worthy, you'll do anything to make it happen—even if success isn't guaranteed. That's the essence of moving forward, no matter what. Key Takeaways Moving forward requires faith, like walking a path at night where each step illuminates just the next 50 feet ahead of you. What seems like an insurmountable obstacle (clouds ahead) is often just a matter of perspective that clears as you keep moving. Every goal worth pursuing deserves the crucial question: "Is this worth the risk I'm taking to achieve it?" Memorable Quotes "When you love what you do, you step in the studio, do a podcast, it doesn't really matter – it's just game on." "Moving forward, no matter what, sometimes is a leap of faith. It really truly is." "When it is worthy, you will do anything to make it happen. There's nothing that will stop you." Scott's Three-Step Approach Recognize that your battle plan won't survive first contact – be prepared to adapt as you move forward. Take that first step even when you can't see the whole path – each step will illuminate the next part of your journey. Evaluate whether your goal is truly worthy of the risk – when it is, nothing will stop you from pursuing it. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Six Human Needs That Drive Everything You Do 11:14

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Six Human Needs That Drive Everything You Do May 15, 2025 | Episode 5094 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Have you ever wondered what truly drives your happiness and fulfillment? In this eye-opening episode, Scott returns to the fundamentals with Tony Robbins' robust Six Human Needs framework. If you're feeling uncertain about your direction or lacking confidence, this episode reveals the psychological drivers that might be missing in your life. Scott breaks down these core needs with his trademark upbeat style and practical wisdom. Featured Story Scott shares how a recent Fisher Passion coaching call sparked this deep dive into what makes us tick. With his characteristic honesty, he admits he's "ripping off" Tony Robbins' work (while giving full credit!) to help you understand what might be missing in your life. Whether you're seeking certainty or craving variety, Scott explains how balancing these six fundamental needs can transform your daily experience. Key Takeaways Understanding your need for certainty versus variety explains why you make your choices and how to find balance between stability and excitement. Significance, connection, and love aren't just nice-to-haves—they're essential human needs that determine your happiness and fulfillment. Growth and contribution become increasingly important as you progress through life, especially when building your legacy and finding more profound meaning. Memorable Quotes "If you don't know what you're doing, if you don't know the path, if you're still kind of confused, it's really hard to feel confident." "If you don't have a connection with people, like-minded people, people that care about you and you care about them, if there is no love, you are not going to feel like a complete person." "If you're not growing, you're not feeling like your true self. If you're not rising to your potential." Scott's Three-Step Approach Identify which of the six human needs (certainty, variety, significance, connection/love, growth, contribution) are most important to you right now. Create daily practices that fulfill your top needs while making sure you don't neglect the others. Review your life regularly to see if your needs have shifted and adjust your activities accordingly to maintain balance and happiness.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Turn Your Annoyance Into Unstoppable Motivation May 14, 2025 | Episode 5093 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Ever find yourself annoyed and wonder how to turn it around? In this episode, Scott shares a gym conversation about how irritation can fuel motivation. With his trademark upbeat delivery, Scott explains why those annoying moments might be precisely what you need to spark positive action. It's all about mindset and how you view the world — no unicorns or rainbows required! Featured Story Scott meets "Josh" at the gym who's frustrated about a car financing deal falling through. Instead of letting Josh spiral into more annoyance, Scott reframes the situation, showing how annoying moments can become powerful motivation. This real-world example demonstrates Scott's practical approach to handling life's frustrations and turning them into fuel for positive action. Sometimes the best kick in the pants comes from something that initially gets under your skin! Key Takeaways Annoyance can be transformed into powerful motivation when you shift your perspective and use it to fuel your passion. The world isn't always fair, but that's not necessarily bad — we're all on different paths, and recognizing this helps us respond better to challenges. Your mindset determines how you experience life — it's not about finding another "hack," it's about training your brain to respond differently to obstacles. Memorable Quotes "When you are annoyed, you have just fueled your passion. You've fueled your fight, and you're going to turn into the battle, and you're going to work it out." "Life is annoying sometimes. Life is not fun sometimes, but it's okay. It's all your mindset." "Every single thing we do is about how you think about the world, see the world, view the world, and live in the world." Scott's Three-Step Approach Recognize when you're annoyed and acknowledge it instead of pretending everything is fine. Reframe your annoyance as fuel for motivation rather than allowing it to derail your day. Use your newly energized mindset to face the challenge head-on and find solutions rather than dwelling on frustration. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes When Your Backup Plan Becomes Your Best Option May 13, 2025 | Episode 5092 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Are you committed to a path while secretly eyeing a different direction? In this energizing episode, Scott challenges the common advice that "there is no Plan B" with a refreshing perspective. Through a recent client conversation, he shares an epiphany about goals, commitments, and knowing when to pivot. This isn't about quitting but recognizing when your heart is pulling you toward what truly matters. Featured Story Scott recounts a breakthrough moment with a client diligently working toward "Plan A" for nearly a year. Despite full commitment and progress, the client commented casually: "Plan B is always looking better." This sparked Scott's realization – sometimes our supposed backup plan is our heart's genuine desire. When that happens, it's time to acknowledge that Plan B has become Plan A. Key Takeaways There's nothing wrong with changing direction when you realize your passion lies with your "backup plan" rather than forcing yourself to stick with your original path. Find people who think like you want to think, not necessarily how you currently think – elevate your mindset by surrounding yourself with the right community. Before starting any goal, get crystal clear on what you want and why – without clarity, you'll struggle to maintain commitment when challenges arise. Memorable Quotes "Find people that think like you want to think, not necessarily like you think right now." "I'm not going to do what I don't like for any duration of time. As soon as I figure it out, I'm going to make a change." "Sometimes Plan A doesn't look as good as Plan B – and that's when Plan B becomes Plan A." Scott's Three-Step Approach Get absolute clarity on what your goal is and why it matters to you – vague goals lead to vague results. Surround yourself with people who think the way you aspire to think, not those holding you back with old patterns. Be honest with yourself when your passion shifts – have the courage to pivot when your heart is clearly pulling you in a new direction.
