About BTYFI

In 2013, D.J. figured out that just surviving wasn’t enough. He needed a mission statement. After much prayer and reflection, it came down to this: Leave the World Better Than He Found It.

The immediate problem with this is that people tend to over-do it! Confronted with something so big, we get discouraged and convince ourselves that it isn’t worth the effort – “what can I possibly do?” we ask ourselves. But D.J. realized it wasn’t about big things – but a series of smaller decisions we make every day that matter. It isn’t our actions or what we do that matters…

What matters is our attitudes and orientation toward the world.

This orientation takes PRACTICE and that is what this podcast is all about! Each episode will contain perspectives and encouragements designed to raise your level of preparedness for leaving the world a better place – because it isn’t about the big single decisions… it is about what we do in the moment – and WHO we are that matters most.

So… what happened?

The answer is unfortunate but simple. 

 COVID and life!

DJ actually took the last episode of season 1 pretty seriously and realized that he was doing far too much hustle himself. And, we can only serve from the cup at the level it is, right?

So following publishing two books, several courses, and quite a few ‘lessons learned’ in other business ventures – we may see a comeback here and new episodes soon – but financial realities mean that other efforts come first above this one. Unfortunate, but true!

Hope to see you again soon – subscribe so you know when it happens!

When Do New Episodes Appear?

While we used to upload weekly, this was creating ‘hustle’ for us which is very much against what the podcast stands for. We will make new episodes when the time feels right!
