Blake Grice

In this episode I talk with my good friend, Blake Grice. Blake is the Owner/Head Coach at Electric City Mixed Martial Arts in Anderson, SC. He is a MMA referee who has worked with many organizations including the UFC, Bellator, Desert Force, and Phoenix Fighting Championship.I wanted to have Blake on to tell his story about how he ended up leaving a "dream job" to pursue his passion for MMA. How it wasn't always easy financially, especially in the early days. Blake took a chance even when some of the people closest to him told him it wasn't going to work. He proved them wrong in a really big way. He did so by following the two biggest rules for success which are putting in the work and not quitting. It's a great story and I hope you guys enjoy it. If you are in the area or ever passing through I highly encourage you to check out his gym. They have an incredible facility and top level instructors. More information about the gym can be found on their website. https://www.electriccitymixedmartialarts.com

In this episode I talk about the importance of working towards goals as soon as you set them. With the new year right around the corner I started to think of all the people who make resolutions they never complete. Part of the problem is in thinking you need a special date to get started becoming a better you. That's not the mentality of a successful person. Set the goal and work towards it immediately. I hope this episode helps get you inspired to not just set goals but actually accomplish them. If I can help in any way please don't hesitate to reach out.

Why Waiting Equals Failure

In this episode I talk about avoiding wasting your time and money on what is almost always a scam. We have all seen them. The ads and videos that pop up when we are on Facebook and Youtube. Some guy taking a selfie video in a garage full of exotic cars or in the front yard of a baller mansion. I avoid everything these guys are doing like the plague and share with you why I do so.I also go into detail of how you SHOULD be building a profitable business. It's not easy, it's not fast, and you probably won't make 6 figures your first year. That's not how real sustainable businesses or business people are made. Take notes on the last 12 minutes. I've found these things to be the most beneficial for growing my own business.

Get Rich Quick & The Truth

This was more of a short rant about how to focus on yourself. Taking into consideration other peoples life experiences.  Not to worry about having different beliefs than family and friends. And how to interpret others talking about you.

The Company You Keep

In this episode I talk about the basics of nutrition and exercise. As you probably know there is a LOT of misinformation out there on both subjects. There is no magic pill and I don't know that there ever will be. Same goes for diet, there is no magic shortcut. The diets you see your friends do may be working for them but may be bad for you. Why? Well look at your lifestyle. Is it the same? Do they get up, go work a desk job, and then just come home and relax? If so their nutrition demands will be much different than someone who works a physical job and got stop the gym every evening.Take the time to do your research. Jumping into anything uneducated especially when it comes to diet and exercise is a really bad idea. I definitely do not have all of the answers but I'm happy to share what info I do have. Feel free to email me with any questions you have, matt@theselfmadepodcast.com.If you are interested in any of the supplements that I take they can all be found here.1STPHORM.COM
