90% of success in life comes from showing up. Now, what does this mean practically? When it comes to relationships, just being there for the other person goes a long way. Now you may ultimately say or do the wrong things, but just taking the time to be there for the other person will go a long way. Ever since my dad passed away, I try and communicate with my mom at least once per day. Even if it is only a short phone call or text message, I will take the time to show her that I am thinking of her. I used to skip appointments, events, and hanging out with friends if I would be even a little bit late. In retrospect, I was completely missing the point, and thus failing 100%. My ego was getting in the way because I thought I would look bad if I showed up tardy. I am thankful to be in a place where I can see the value in simply making an honest effort in life. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jerrybanfield/support
