  • Your Past Is a Lens Not a Leader
    Jan 28 2026
    In today’s episode, I share the six lessons behind the meaning of the past and why we do not suffer in the present. Reality is neutral and meaning is assigned, so I show how past stories drain energy, distort decisions, and create fear through projection. I explain how thoughts are signals, not commands, why we are rarely upset for the reasons we think, and how presence beats prediction when execution matters. I walk through cancel, clear, and connect as a repeatable way to reset, reclaim attention, intention, interpretation, and take the smallest next step aligned with where we want to be or better.

  • Why Small Wins Matter More Than Big Expectations
    Jan 27 2026
    In today’s episode, I sit down with Patrick McEnroe, former professional tennis player, longtime broadcaster, and president of the International Tennis Hall of Fame. We talk about what years in elite sports teach you about pressure, patience, and personal growth, especially for young athletes navigating expectations shaped by social media. Patrick shares lessons from coaching kids, parenting teenagers, and competing at the highest level, including how listening changes performance, why small goals matter more than wins, and how to separate identity from outcomes. We also get into how tennis has evolved, what truly separates top players across eras, and why fulfillment comes from pursuing your own potential, not chasing comparisons.

  • Live in the Present: The Real Key to Success
    Jan 26 2026
    In this episode, I share why most of our suffering comes from living in the past or worrying about the future instead of staying present. When we live where our feet are, we gain clarity, confidence, and momentum. I break down how devotion to daily non-negotiable behaviors, learning from the past without living in it, and taking consistent action creates real progress. Your future isn’t built tomorrow; it’s created by what you do today. To join my next free Friday Training sessions, email me at david@dmeltzer.com
