“Believe in you. Give everything you got. Be all in.” -Dan Long FREE report - 5 Ways to Become Tough as Nails http://www.criticalbench.com/tough Each day we wake there is a decision to make… To go through the motions or to be fully committed in all that we do! On today’s episode of Strong By Design, Coach Chris sits down with KillMode Founder and fellow brother in the Lord, Dan Long. In this episode, Dan gets personal and shares some of the most difficult and dark times in his life. Tune in to hear how despite his trials and tribulations, Dan was able to go ALL IN and reap his reward. Some of the podcast episode: Dan: [00:04:42] Emotionally, it was a roller coaster and some of the hardest things I've ever dealt with in my life that would take a lot of people down including a lot of friends of mine and family members that I've seen from the past. I come from a mom and dad that divorced when I was 12 years old I had straight A's. When that happened. After that happened my grades went to F's. And I remember ending up in a portable and I remember a guidance counselor looking at me saying "Why do you have F's when you just had A's on your last report card." And I remember crying and not being able to answer that question because I didn't know. So, you would think that someone can recoup from that very easily as being a kid. And obviously I did not. It was a very very very stressful thing for me. I wanted my mom and dad together. And I will tell everyone out there the last thing I ever wanted to go through because of that and what I went through that pain being pulled one way with my mom being pulled another way with my dad and back then you know it was fighting for custody. It was wasn't 50/50 shared parenting and going through that stressful time. The one thing I made a pact with myself was the fact that I never wanted to be divorced. If I ever got married I didn't want to ever have to go through that and or put kids through that. Dan: [00:34:22] And you have this, and you have to, and you have to walk the walk and look look if you don't I'm sorry I couldn't respect you I wouldn't hire you. So, I have to train. I have to eat. I had a drive. I got to make sure the kids were taken care of. I got to get them in daycare because I couldn't I couldn't take care of them. I had to try to start a new business. And so, with starting that business I want everyone to know out there by the way my current wife she no longer questions me, but you know I know that every entrepreneur out there can understand that everything you do seems crazy to the normal individual. Coach Chris: [00:34:53] Yeah. Dan: [00:34:54] And the corporate worlds what I'm used to for so many years back then, but I've always hustled since I was a young kid and I still side hustle even though I do all what I do today because I love it and it just makes me feel invigorating as I continue to. iTunes Show Episode https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/are-you-all-in-every-day-with-dan-long/id1383270948?i=1000415604693&mt=2 Overcast Show Episode https://overcast.fm/+NHWrz6I6c Subscribe to the Strong By Design Podcast Show https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/strong-by-design-podcast/id1383270948?mt=2 Time Stamps: 4:42 Dealing with divorce as a child 6:12 Dan’s emotional spiral while dealing with his spouse’s unfaithfulness 9:30 Details of Dan’s second marriage 11:05 Medical complications with the birth of Dan’s children 15:34 Finding out your spouse is cheating and on drugs 17:00 Dan’s fight for custody of the children 19:00 How Dan learned to lean on God 28:12 How God placed Dan’s current wife in his life 32:22 Dan’s leap of faith when entering the fitness industry Thank you so much for listening.
