Most people think doing good for others costs them Most people think doing good for others costs them something.Time.Money.Energy.And sometimes… it does.In this reel from the Give A Heck Podcast, Chris Shurian shares a story that proves something most people don’t believe until they experience it.Years ago, he saw a young family in his community struggling.Their home was unfinished.They were living in the basement.They could not get ahead.So he made a decision.He rallied his trades.His suppliers.His network.And in one week…They completely finished the home.Furnished it.Filled it with presents.He did not do it for recognition.He did not do it for return.He did it because it was the right thing to do.Years later, when his own business was under pressure…That decision came back in a way he never expected.Not as money.Not as a transaction.But as something far more valuable.Trust.Because people were watching.And when it mattered most…That is what made the difference.Sometimes what you give away…comes back when you need it the most.🎙️ Chris Shurian shares more of his journey and lessons on the Give A Heck Podcast.👇 Check the comments to watch or listen to the full episode, or be a guest on the show.

Most people don’t stop because they can’t. They s Most people don’t stop because they can’t.They stop because someone didn’t believe in them.In this reel from the Give A Heck Podcast, Aaron Ryan shares a mindset every creator, and honestly every person, needs to hear.When you put something out into the world, it’s personal.It’s an extension of you.And when people criticize it, reject it, or completely miss the point, it can hit hard.But here’s the truth:Someone’s endorsement of you, or lack of it, has very little to do with your trajectory.The reviews will come.The opportunities will come.The chances to share your work will come.That’s your trajectory, not their opinion.So let the naysayers, the bad vibes, and the noise bounce off you.Because if you stop every time someone doesn’t get it, you’ll never become what you’re capable of becoming.🎙️ Aaron Ryan shares more of his journey and insights on the Give A Heck Podcast.👇 Check the comments to watch or listen to the full episode, or learn how to be a guest on the show.#GiveAHeck #PurposefulLife #Podmatch #MindsetShift #CreatorMindset #PersonalGrowth
Most people are trying… And still getting nowhere Most people are trying…And still getting nowhere financially.It is not because they are lazy.It is not because they do not care.It is because they are missing what actually matters.In this reel, I break down what I see over and over again when people tell me they are “budgeting.”They write down the obvious things.Bills.Groceries.A few extras.But they miss the real-life stuff.Haircuts.Vehicle maintenance.Debt reduction.Even things like vacations.And then they wonder why their money never works.Because a real plan is not just numbers on paper.Your budget is supposed to be an active representation of your life.Not just where your money is going, but where your life is going.If you are spending a dollar and only making 80 cents…That is not a budgeting problem.That is a reality problem.And it will keep getting worse until you face it.When I worked through budgets with people, we added the things they were avoiding.Debt.Future goals.Real expenses.Because minimum payments are not designed to move you forward.They are designed to keep you stuck.If your plan does not reflect your reality…It will never help you change it.🎙️ More real conversations about money, mindset, and living intentionally on the Give A Heck Podcast👇 Check the comments to watch or listen, or reach out for a free, no obligation call to build a plan that actually reflects your life and your goals#GiveAHeck #PurposefulLife #Podmatch #FinancialReality #MoneyMindset
Most people think their life isn’t changing… But Most people think their life isn’t changing…But the truth is, it is changing every single day.Just not always in the direction they want.In this reel from the Give A Heck Podcast, Aaron Ryan shares a mindset shift that completely changed how he approaches life and success.And it came from a line he once ignored in a movie:“Your focus determines your reality.”At the time, it meant nothing.Just another line from Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace.But years later, something clicked.And he realized…Whatever you focus on consistentlystarts to become your life.So he made a decision.To focus on writing.To focus on building something meaningful.To focus on creating a life where his work would provide for his family.And over time…That focus became reality.This isn’t about motivation.It’s about direction.Because if you don’t control your focus…something else will.🎙️ Aaron Ryan shares more of his journey and insights on the Give A Heck Podcast.👇 Check the comments to watch or listen to the full episode, or learn how to be a guest on the show#GiveAHeck #PurposeDrivenLife #MindsetShift #FocusMatters #PersonalGrowth
Most people miss the moment that could change thei Most people miss the moment that could change their entire life.In this reel from the Give A Heck Podcast, Aaron Ryan shares the exact moment that set him on the path to becoming an author.It wasn’t planned.It wasn’t strategic.It wasn’t anything extraordinary on the surface.It was a second-grade assignment.A simple story… written on paper, surrounded by hand-drawn stick figures, inspired by what he was reading at the time.But when he held it in his hands, something shifted.“I made this. I did this.”That moment didn’t just pass.It planted something deeper.Years later, that same spark turned into writing more than 40 books and building a purpose-driven life.Most people ignore moments like that.They move on.They tell themselves it doesn’t matter.But sometimes…That small moment is actually the beginning of everything.🎙️ Aaron Ryan shares more of his story and insights on the Give A Heck Podcast.👇 Check the comments to learn how you can be a guest on the show or find other episodes to watch or listen to.#GiveAHeck #PurposeDrivenLife #Podmatch #AuthorLife #CreativeJourney #MindsetShift #PersonalGrowth
You are God’s favourite. Not overlooked.
