You Never Know What Someone Is Going Through...
Primal King Podcast
Sometimes it's really easy to take things personal. Maybe it's that guy that cut you off in traffic. Maybe it's that rude cashier or even that fight with a friend that you never saw coming. Maybe it's even someone taking their life that you would have never expected... The reality is, we don't ever truly know what someone may be going through but our reactions usually don't take those thoughts into mind. Yes, people should always have a certain amount of kindness and decency but it's also very easy for us to be so self-focused that no matter what the reason may be, we take it personal...and it...

Couples Edition-Is Better Actually......Better?
Primal King Podcast
We all want bigger and better. It may be the bank account, the house, the car or just about anything. Here is the question that Derek and Jess ask in this episode...is better ACTUALLY better?

So often in life we don't really think about the downstream affect of what becoming better may actually mean in other areas of life. If you want the billion dollar business, will that impact your home life? If you want the six pack abs, will it impact your relationships? There may not be a "one...

The ONE Thing We Can't Handle But We Should Prepare For...
Primal King Podcast
Human beings can handle just about anything. We can struggle through loss, heartbreak, job loss, financial collapse and so much more. The one thing that we CAN'T handle over even a short period of time is chaos. It can literally make us go crazy...

This episode is not meant to be "doom and gloom." Instead, it...

Couples Edition-17 Years and Counting...

Primal King Podcast
Do you have days that feel like you are on a rollercoaster and the only thing you want to do is get off? In this episode, Derek and Jess take you through "how they do it."

Pursuing greatness will always be much harder and take much longer than we think so how is it that you can get through all of the days that feel like the lowest of lows? You keep going. You may cry (as Jess talks about). You might threaten to sell everything and go live in a subdivision (like Derek talks about). However, you dig down deep and keep going...
info_outlineHave you ever heard someone say "don't take it so personal?" Most of us have...
Rather than not taking things personal, maybe we should. Maybe we SHOULD hold enough of a grudge to fuel the fire that otherwise might not be there.
In this episode Derek goes through several examples of people that have taken things personally. From athletes to business owners and everyone in between, the best of the best always seem to be able to compartmentalize that darker energy and harness it for good.
The next time someone tells you to "not take it so personal," you absolutely should consider taking it VERY personal and using it as the fuel to crush your goals!
