When life throws you, Lemons
Mike will share what it was like after being told by doctors just two years ago, that he had to have his colon removed. Also, he was told that he would likely develop colon cancer and never walk again (if he even survived).
Mike refused to accept his doctor’s prognosis and decided to take his health into his own hands. He changed his diet, started juicing regularly. He also practiced mindful meditation, weight training, and running.
Records were made to be Broken
Mike recently broke a Guinness World Record by running 30 half marathons. (approximately 13 miles) in 30 days. He did this in support of an LA-based, six-year-old girl named Layla Rae, who is suffering from a very rare autoimmune disease. In 2020 Mike is planning on breaking another Guinness World Record by running the most ultra-marathons (30 miles +) in a month.
We create our reality.
Mike believes that we create our reality by changing the way we think. In his latest book, “7 Steps to an Unbreakable Mindset,” Mike shares the stories of several well-known people. The success of these people was dependent on willpower rather than talent. Mike uses these stories to give you the secret on how to replicate their success in your own life.
