In This Episode:
Fans and listeners of the Richest Men in Town are in for a treat as Mike and Tyler welcome Jeremy Mhire to the program. Jeremy comes to the program through a couple of degrees of separation. To make a long story short, Jeremy owns the Proximal Strength Gym in Springfield, Missouri but for Jeremy and his community, Proximal Strength is so much more than a gym. It's his way of empowering lives. Their mission is to build and strengthen lives through fitness and community. With his team, they are committed to daily mental, physical, and spiritual growth. And that just so happens to line up with the Richest Men in Town podcast is all about. Jeremy is a warrior. He is all about strength from the core and for him that means giving his best effort every day to live his faith in Christ. He lives in continual pursuit of making himself and everyone around him better. It is impossible to summarize the depth of where Jeremy takes the guys but a few nuggets from the conversation include:

• The importance of giving our best effort
• Nothing good happens fast
• Speaking truth in love like Christ did
• Eliminating/turning down the dial on distractions
• Daily discipline
• Pulling weeds
• Accountability through community
• Repentance and change

Quotes...

• "The essence of being as good as you can be is you gotta figure out who you are. You gotta figure out in that relentless effort to get clear about what's important to you, what uncompromising principles do you stand by, what makes you who you are, so if you don't go through that process, if you don't do the self-discovery, then you don't have an opportunity to be your best because you don't know who you are yet." -Pete Carroll
• “If I had an hour to solve a problem, I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.” -Albert Einstein
• "David said moreover, The Lord that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the Lord be with thee." -1 Samuel 17:37
• "And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them." -Ether 12:27 in The Book of Mormon
• "Don't be upset by the results you didn't get with the work you didn't do." -Richard Swart
