I grew up in a family that was very entrepreneurial. “I have a wedding or a Birthday next week can you engrave one for me?” We still have those first glasses and we use them regularly to remember that’s where this all started.įull Interview #6. The next morning we had requests for engraved glassware from friends. We posted photos of our first glasses on Facebook. I thought she might be onto something so we broke out all of the equipment right there and then and made a stencil to blast a glass. I looked at her and asked, “What do you mean?” She pointed out that everywhere you go there’s glassware with branding on it. She went to the cabinet to grab a glass, to pour herself some water and she said, “What about engraving this?” Andi asked one night what we were going to do with all that equipment and we realized we were pretty much lost. Our Aha moment was while starting our first business, we spent every dime we had, literally! We still couldn’t engrave a rock, because we were missing one final product.

This is when I started to study any thing I could get my hands on about mindset, psychology and the connecting between the physical and mental. We started to WIN more and athletes were winning on the field and in life. I created a game plan to train the MINDSET. I started as the youngest strength coach at the D1 level in the nation helping athletes perform at a higher level in training them physically…then, I discovered that their performance was dependent on something greater than their physical talent. People of all walks of life started to contact me because they heard my story and other victories from the athletes I was coaching. As I was being used to help others create breakthroughs and WINS in life, it became contagious and turned into a movement. I then discovered that God had blessed me with a crazy talent and gift combined with a heart to help others WIN. It was ignited out of a sense of urgency to have to make money to fight to be a father. When my goal and dream to play basketball in college was no longer a reality and I was in the fight of my life to be a father, I decided to start my first business. I had a crazy sense of compassion for people and hated to see people suffer. From a very young age, I felt a burning desire to help other people WIN in life.
We asked the same question to an array of public figures-from actors to musicians to romance novelists-and their answers were just as varied and inspirational.I grew up with very little and always wanted to be more and achieve more in life. What was your biggest aha moment of 2021? When we posed the question to Oprah Daily followers on Instagram, responses included comments about the importance of health, learning to accept people for who they are, and more. “I always love those moments when I sit down to talk to somebody and they say things that make me look at life or a situation in a completely different way,” Oprah explained in a video for Merriam-Webster, saying it’s kind of a “lightbulb, bing bing bing” moment, in which “the little hairs on your arms stand up.”
Or, as Oprah would put it, they sparked an aha moment, which brings sudden inspiration, insight, recognition or comprehension, seemingly in a flash. With reflection, some of these defining events may have given you a lasting treasure: a new way of seeing. Think back on the events of the last year-the triumphs, the joys, and the challenges (and we're sure there have been many).
