Minutes with Dad - 1% Better

This audio transcript features a Mark sharing life lessons with his children through a personal series titled "Minutes with Dad." Inspired by the story of an athlete with Down syndrome, the speaker explores the concept of incremental self-improvement, or getting "1% better" every day. He reflects on his own family’s history of poverty and hard work, using these memories to encourage his listeners to overcome excuses and embrace sacrifice. The message emphasizes the importance of setting clear goals, maintaining a fighter's mentality, and outworking others to achieve greatness. Ultimately, it serves as a heartfelt motivational legacy, urging the next generation to pursue a life they can be proud of while offering paternal love and support.

Minutes with Dad - Showing Up

Minutes with Dad is way for me to connect with my kids, grandkids (when we are all older), brother, sister, wife, friends and make up for some lost time and some shortcomings from being a dad with no experience to becoming a dad with some age and a little perspective. I’ll be talking about life, thoughts I might have, things I see, trying always to improve and keeping up with it happening. Part of the reason I want to do this is because I don't get to talk to all of you all the time, sometimes rarely. And I think maybe this is a good way to have a talk and not be in your face. So that's another reason.”
