Lessons From The 7 Day Integrity Challenge

April 22, 2015 By Joel Runyon 12 Comments

7 Days. Done. 7 days of gym and 7 days of mobility work on a foam roller. #boom The past 7 days have been sort of meditative for me. And besides realizing I have a ton of tension through my mid-back and abductors, I discovered a few other things about myself as well. Taking Care Of Myself Is The #1 Priority When it comes to projects, it seems the first things I always want to sacrifice are the things that are probably most ...

Learning To Celebrate The Wins (Plus a HUGE Thank You)

April 20, 2015 By Joel Runyon 4 Comments

One of the hardest things I have to learn is how to actually celebrate the good things that happen in life. When something ships on time or goes great, I, like many people, dismiss it out of hand and tell myself, “Finally, something went right,” then move on to the next thing. Meanwhile, anything that doesn't go perfect slams you upside the head and requires several days of scrutiny, fixation and penance. As a result, all the amazing things get ...

Today’s topic is something that I’ve talked a lot about - pushing your limits. I’ve talked about this a thousand times in various interviews, but I’ve never written it down anywhere on the site. Today, that changes. Buckle up - this one’s a doozy. How To Push Your Limits - The Power of Reference Points 5 Years ago, when I first decided to stop settling for the “possible” and try pushing my limits, I didn’t think I could do anything.

50 Years For 70 Bucks

April 2, 2015 By Joel Runyon 7 Comments

A year or so ago, I was driving through Yellowstone National Park with my brother. Snow had piled up quite high and there was an avalanche warning in effect as long as the sun was up - so all the cars coming into the park had to wait until sunset to pass through. We parked the car outside the gate and got out of the car to stretch our legs. We had a good amount of time (over an hour) until the sun went down so naturally, we started talking to some of ...
