The local Fire/Rescue, Flagler County Fire Rescue, has an ALS competition team that has been building one heck of a reputation! Last year, they were named World Champs at the Rallye Rejviz in Jesenik, Czech Republic, and missed repeating as champs by three points this year! Congratulations to both teams who went and competed. I know and work with these guys, and to be considered second best in the WORLD is awesome!! To find out more about the team, visit their home page at www.flaglerteam.com.

One last thing before I get to the podcast. I wanted to tell you about something that has made a HUGE difference in my life. I have always believed in personal and professional growth and development……..hence this podcast! I began it 2 years ago as a means to keep my mind working and enrich my knowledge and education in emergency medicine/nursing and medicine in general. But I also have used/read/studied many personal growth systems over the years. I believe consistently learning and developing yourself and putting some time and effort into making yourself better is the one single thing you should do……….daily!
Well, I’ve found a really great resource that can help you do this! It’s a special coaching program from my friend JB Glossinger. JB is a really sharp guy and he’s done an amazing job applying the principles of success to his own life. Now he offers a daily coach cast, which is 15 or 20 minutes of power-packed content to start your day in an amazing way.  Each morning is a fresh topic, anything from how to develop your intelligence to mind mapping, overcoming doubts to creating action plans, and strengthening your personal discipline to creating abundance.  
I believe your entire day is created before you leave the house in the morning.  If you create a positive attitude and prosperity consciousness, you attract positive people and circumstances into
your life.  If you rush out the door, grab breakfast at 7-11, and rush into work, you attract negative people and circumstances. JB’s “Morning Coach” program will make sure you start each day the right way.  
I know if you get on the program it will make a big difference in your success and prosperity. I know it has in my life.  I love his work and I’m sure you will too.  Check it out and see for yourself.  
JB has offered all my subscribers a free 7-day all-access plan. Just go to my site and click on the big blue link in the center column for a 7 day FREE trial of this amazing system!!

OK, now on with the show!
