You talk about “get your mind right!” Wait until you hear this one. However you are feeling right now, it doesn’t compare to how amazing you will feel once you’ve listened to my entire conversation with Jose Flores, aka the “Mindset Disruptor.” As a kid, Jose was diagnosed with a form of MS called Spinal Muscular Atrophy and was confined to a wheelchair by the time he was 15 years old. Doctors told him he probably wouldn’t live past his teenage years. Well, the “Mindset Disruptor” proved them wrong and is creating great IMPACT today!
Jose and I go deep in conversation on today’s IMPACT SHOW about:
- His diagnosis as a kid
- Overcoming struggles and using his diagnosis as a blessing
- Marriage and family life and the key to a great marriage
- How Les Brown has impacted his life and his topic lessons learned from Les
- Chasing dreams and how to push through struggles until you get through them
- How to turn your mess into your message & your struggle into your story
- How to NOT let your struggle become your standard
A mutual friend, Travis Barnes, connected Jose and me, and I know this won’t be the last time “The Mindright Maniac” and The “Mindset Disruptor” get together. Heck, we may need to go on tour together. And believe me, when I say it, there’s only one way you’ll feel at the end of this episode - inspired and ready to crush the day!
