Hello Guys! I wanted your opinion on these photos for pre-selection. They are unedited, but wanted to know which would be best for grid and which for highlights. Thanks MOA team!

What’s the #1 area of your life you’re trying to improve this year? Fitness, career, or relationships/dating?

As a man, people only care about the value you bring. I like that we teach this principle here. The concept of value was foreign to me, up until a few years ago, when I started sales. Everyone should have a sales job at one point in their life. You have the opportunity to learn a tremendous amount about yourself, human psychology, and relationships. But more than that, and why I believe everyone should work sales at one point, is because everything in life is sales. The construction manager leading a crew, has to sell his team on what they will accomplish that day, and how to get it done. Now, if you’re anything like me, you hate salesmen, but if we’re being honest, what we hate is the salesman who’s only interested in his own gain. We are taught in MOA to look for the win/win situation, how to elevate our lives AND those around us. Life is all about being a man of value, and learning how to give that value away. A stockpile of value does no good, unless it’s given away. I think we all would agree, the salesman who makes your win their priority, is the one you want to do business with … over and over. Maybe you aren’t in sales, but you are a man, and the world only cares about the value you bring to the table. In whatever profession you find yourself, learn to provide the most amount of value you can. Like Michael says, the level of compensation you receive will be proportional to the problem that you solve … aka value you bring! Step #1 Suspend Ego Step #2 Provide Value

Gentlemen, I have found a lot of success in the practice of meditation. What this discipline has taught me is to be able to observe my thoughts and emotions as a spectator, and not be affected by them. It has laid the ground work for what is taught in MOA. We have the saying to ‘Suspend Disbelief.’ When you understand that disbelief is a thought you can choose to follow or ignore, this gives you the ability to break past limiting beliefs. Which is why we are all here, am I right? Where this has had direct life application for me, is in my career. I am a Realtor in the Tampa Bay Area, and the advice of the successful, is to make an egregious amount of cold calls to acquire business. This has been my biggest hurdle so far, because I hate coming across as “sales-y” and am a recovering people-pleaser. However, I have been able to identify, that the thing holding me back is my ego, whose goal is to keep me safe and comfortable in what is familiar. Unfortunately, what’s familiar and comfortable, isn’t successful. Maybe you can relate … It’s the classic saying of, ‘get out of your own way.’ Therefore, my new mantra for work is, Suspend Ego. Choose to identify what thoughts are holding you back and elect to suspend them. They do not control you. You decide what thoughts will be given your attention. Ask yourself, is this thought worth following? Does it get you to where you want to go? Does it align with your dreams and goals? Do not give yourself over to worthless thoughts, friends. Much love ✊🏼
