Mike Tinder

In this recording, I interviewed Mike Tinder. Mike Tinder is a personal and business coach.  He lives into the meaning of his last name.  Tinder is defined as kindling, something that serves to incite or inflame.  He lives to ignite the potential of his clients and their best.  He provides authenticity & integrity; there are few places in his own life where he hasn’t stretched.  Mike is a graduate and affiliate of accomplishment coaching, where he currently leads and mentors new coaches in Chicago.  Mike is a former division I football player, west coast swing dance champion, real estate developer and sales rep. He is also a kidney donor.  In addition, he got married this summer to his dream girl – Dr. Jennifer Tinder.  They reside in Indiana.

Mike recently made some choices in his life that changed him forever. I trust as you hear his story, you will be inspired to live into your greatness. Each of us has an opportunity to make a difference in the world in our unique way. You will hear how Mike changed his world and our hope is that it inspires you to make a difference in yours. I ask that you cut out all distraction, write down any thoughts that are important to you, and if this conversation moves you, to share it with those you love.

In 2011 six unique men pushed themselves to the edge of their physical, emotional, mental and spiritual boundaries. They summited the highest mountain in the world outside of Asia…The Mighty Aconcagua.

The Aconcagua Man Project challenged each participant’s physical, financial and relational success. This project was not for the faint of heart. The team claimed the clarity and integration of their lives.

This interview is an overview of the Aconcagua Man Project and is the catalyst for the change that is yet to come. Each person faces his or her own Aconcagua and the principles in this interview will help him or her to summit and discover their capability.

As you listen, apply the lessons of this interview to yourself. Make them relevant to you because it is not so much what is being said that matters, as much as what you learn.

If you’re looking for Kim, you may find her expanding her comfort zone by driving a stock car, jumping off the tallest building in New Zealand, or rappelling three hundred feet into a cave system. She invites you to come along on her next adventure!

Kim has served for twenty-five years in possibility leadership, ranging from small business ownership to Fortune 500 executive experience. Founder of Possibilities Amplified, Inc. and author of The Science of Making Things Happen: Turn Any Possibility into Reality, Kim is a popular motivational speaker and sought-after consultant. She has delivered programs for a large variety of audiences and organizations, igniting them with her message of possibility and empowerment.

Known for her ability to teach others to see undiscovered possibilities, craft strategies to take measurable advantage of them, and inspire with a compelling vision, Kim is passionate about helping people, businesses, and communities transform themselves.

She’s also starting a day camp for the possibility impaired.

In today’s teleseminar, Kim and I discuss concepts from my new book The Art of Accomplishment and how a person can keep the promises he or she makes in his or her life. This recording will change the way you view your goals and how you approach them. Please share it with your closest friends, family and associates.

Rich Litvin

Rich Litvin, is one of the world’s most exclusive coaches. He works with no more than five personal one-on-one clients a year and his clients are by invitation or referral only. His coaching is highly personalized and tailor-made for each individual client and ranges from $40,000 to $250,000 a year.

An expert in deep, natural, inner confidence, Rich is the founder of The Confident Woman’s Salon – a select and elite group of highly empowered women.

Rich’s clients are exclusively women who are already powerful and passionate, confident and successful. Women who have already achieved a great deal in life. And women who – despite a track record of success – still have bold, outrageous or “Impossible” goals ahead of them…

Like the Olympic Athlete, struggling with her blocks around money and selling calendars at $19 a time to fund her Olympic bid… A single coaching session with Rich and within 24 hours she had raised $40,000 of corporate sponsorship.

And the mother of two who dreamed of the billionaire entrepreneur, Sir Richard Branson, writing the forward to her book and becoming President of her organization. He has just agreed to do both.

And the woman who built the confidence to turn down a job offer of $350,000 because they wanted her to work on Fridays – the day she spends with her 5 year old son… (They later came back and met her terms).

And the coach who just signed her second ever paying client for $160,000. He paid her in full; in advance.

Kevin Day Kday Racing

Over the past 16 years (7 of which have been as a professional) Kevin has been racing bicycles in and around Utah and across the Unites States. During that time he’s been fortunate enough to be a part of many elite cycling teams and make great friends from all over the world.

Kevin is a three time State Champion in the Utah State Championship, Three time Intermountain Cup over-all points leader and placed first at the 24 hours of Targhee. He has also had multiple top five finishes in both Cross Country and Short Track events on a national level.

Through this experience He’s been able to see and ride in some pretty cool places, come across his fair share of mechanical issues and struggle with the stresses and physical demands of bicycle racing. Being a professional athlete is far more work than Kevin had ever imagined and takes up more time than your average full time job. The rewards though are worth every bit of time, effort and $$ he’s spent to get there.

Thankfully Kevin has the support of a great family who have stood by his side and cheered through every up and down of his professional cycling career. They’ve seen him at the top of the podium and stood by as he watched others accelerate to the top spots. The support of Kevin’s family is what makes being a professional worthwhile.
