Episode 075 - 3 Crucial Habits to Build NOW!

I wanted to start out today and first say “thank you” for listening to the show.  I was reviewing the numbers and the IGNITEd Firefighter Podcast has surpassed 35k downloads.  I’m really humbled by all of this and am honored that you all find value in the things that I’m sharing with you.  This all started because I wanted to provide something that I never had when trying to get into the fire service; resources!  Even now, whether or not you’re trying to get hired or are currently on the job, I want to provide you all with tools, resources, conversations, and everything that you might need to become a more capable and better firefighter. Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the things it took for me to get this job as well as the things it takes for me to keep proficient at it.  I see it more often than I’d like, people who get hired on and then stop dead in their tracks with any kind of progression.  Now, I’m not saying that everyone needs to promote.  If you’re happy in your rank of firefighter, that’s GREAT!  There’s nothing wrong with working your entire career at the rank of firefighter!  However, there’s still progress that can be made at that level.  Become a person of added value.  You can earn your paramedic cert, you can earn a college degree, you can obtain a unique specialization like TRT or HAZMAT.  What I’m saying is, you should always be taking steps toward improving yourself and becoming an asset. In the spirit of that, in today’s episode, I’m going to go over 3 practices that I’ve incorporated into my daily routine that have helped me get the job of my dreams.  I share these things with you to give you a very basic idea of how you should be operating daily.  I want to emphasize that...EVERY DAY.  So, let’s get going! -- IGNITEd Firefighter Podcast Facebook Community IGNITEd Readers Book Club IGNITEd Online Shop IGNITEd Recruit Academy 8 Health Benefits of Fasting
