Cracking the Success Code: Insights from a Champion's Playbook | EP001

Dave Scatchard: 00:00:00

Hey how's it going everybody welcome to episode one of All-Stars Success Codes. I'm Dave scatchard 14 year NHL pro Peak Performance line of business coach and now kick ass podcaster what? Anyways, I'm here today because I wanted to do a little storytelling okay, I wanted to give you a little stories about my life and how the hell this little skinny kid skinny poor kid from Canada ended up playing the best league in the world hanging out with rock stars and you know celebrities and no one Wayne Gretzky and Mark Messier running a multimillion dollar coaching business. How the heck can becoming a best selling author becoming an Iron Man? Like becoming a million dollar marketer? Are you kidding me? Guys? I not the smartest guy. I was the ugliest kid. You ever seen my cheese stucco like this? The biggest buck teeth. I could eat an apple through picket fence, it was a little embarrassing. But I had this crazy hunger man, I couldn't turn it off. And when I discovered hockey as young boy, I started skating on these ponds and playing street hockey. And you know if any of you have ever known this in the especially if you're from Canada, it's pretty crazy because everything freezes. And you can throw your skates on and go out there and ski for hours and hours. And you're shoveling off the ponds and the ranks. And it's like, it's a lie. It's like heaven for a young boy who just discovered a new sport, especially watching them to know others crush and win multiple Stanley Cups in a row and have this dynasty like what a better example than that. But I didn't grow up with much. I worked my whole life at paper outside lawn cutting businesses, I worked at McDonald's. I worked at Safeway. But I always I always found a way to love life to always have enough to always be abundant to always manifest the things that I set out to do, including the Ironman including the book. Now who would have thought I'd be the best seller, right? Making the NHL, what are the odds of making the NHL, I was just like you I was a normal person. I was just normal parents. My parents were overly successful. They worked hard. And that was life that they knew.

Dave Scatchard: 00:02:18

But something in me was calling to me that I was built for more. Can anyone relate? I know, right? When you have that calling, like never stops. And the way that I built this thing, I discovered these patterns and these codes. And then the higher up I would go and the different levels of hockey, I would see these other patterns and codes of everyone who was successful. Then as I started to get into the business world, and this personal development world, and spiritual and health and all these things, there were these patterns, these codes that the best of the best would do. And I will pluck all these little gold nuggets and bring them into my coaching business. And then I will start sharing all of my clients and my clients would win. So I'm like, Oh my gosh, how do I amplify my voice? How do I let you guys not have to travel all around the world to all these crazy places and spend all this money. I spent over a million dollars my own money trying to learn and trying to heal because the doctors here couldn't heal me and told me it'd be permanently disabled. Okay, there's a whole nother thing. I'll talk about that on the podcast. But there was a time when I couldn't speak properly it couldn't walk probably couldn't read a contract. Never might finish 140 mile Ironman, couldn't walk to the stop sign without throwing up. I'd sit in my movie theater that dark and feel sorry for myself. I wonder why God would was punishing me. But God wasn't punishing me. God was training me for the things that I was about to go do including this podcast.

Dave Scatchard: 00:03:49

My journey is this crazy roller coaster guys. And it wasn't a straight line. And I believe that without the downfall and without the pain and the suffering and the hopelessness that I felt after my fifth concussion and my near death experience where I wrote my book about the comeback, my journey through heaven and hell. That that was training ground as training ground for me to be able to run this successful podcast, run my successful coaching business to help people no matter where they're at, if they're on a rocket ship, and they're going to the top, I can help them because I know what that feels like I've done it over and over and over again. If they're on a downslide and they don't know what the hell's going on. I'm the guy there to because I live through that I can meet them wherever they're at, because I lived through all of it. And I believe the injuries and the pain and the suffering and the hopelessness. That wasn't that wasn't a punishment from God and the universe. I was training to show me how you can help other people and to come out the other side of the example about what's possible. Okay, so that's essentially what I created this show for you That's why I'm here. That's why I created the coaching businesses. Somebody asked me one time, they said, if you could get healthy again, and if you could do anything for a job, what would you want to do? And I said, I want to help people be successful. I want to help kids make the NHL, I'd want to help people not be in the suffering state and live in a beautiful state. That's what I said. Took me years to be able to come out of it myself, but I can show you those steps, how to rebuild and transition. Now I'm an entrepreneur, now I'm an author. These are all things that I thought were would be impossible. Now I'm a speaker. I speak around the world, I speak in different countries. What? I'm just a little data scattered from intimate Alberta, Canada. Okay. Like I, there's not a lot that's special about me other than my willingness to push beyond what most people think is possible, like a heat seeking missiles, zooming on successful people and figuring out how the heck did they do it, I want to know how they did it, I want to reproduce it and bottle a bottle and give it to you guys, in this podcast. It's a whole reason why I'm doing this show.

Dave Scatchard: 00:06:08

Okay, so now more than ever, is a time for me to share my message. Because we've been building and the hundreds of one on one clients in the 10s of 1000s of group clients that I've had over the years, it needs to be bigger, my calling is bigger than just deep scattered, my calling is bigger than just a few 101. On one clients, my calling is bigger than 10s of 1000s. It's in the hundreds of 1000s, or millions of people who are supposed to hear these amazing stories, messages, success codes, hacks, whatever you want to call it. Because then we all win, it will bring light to this darkness. It's in our world right now today. I'm here to help you. I'm here to serve, I will do whatever I can to bring the best guests on and to really bring great messages to you. And that's what makes me excited. Imagine listening to this podcast, and sitting there and figuring out the things that you've been praying for, oh my goodness, how can I get closer to God? How can I find a deeper meaning? Full relationship? How can I bring more passion into my relationship? How can I become a peak performer? How can I get better success habits? What are the pros? Do? I wonder what so and so does? And I get them on the on the pod? And then you can listen to it. You can go oh my goodness, so and so does this. Right? How amazing is that? In our world today, if I'm not broadcasting with this amazing platform called the Internet right now that I'm doing a disservice to myself. And I'm doing a disservice to all of you out there. Because I have so many incredible stories and lessons that I've learned over time that are meant for you. They're not meant just for Dave scatchard. That's not how it works. You guys get this? Yes. I know, I always teach like I'm on stage right now. I'm not teaching right now. But I'm sharing my excitement about what we have coming for you and what I'm going to build for you guys. You know, behind the scenes, I've got this whole beautiful coaching business.

Dave Scatchard: 00:08:11

And if you want more information, we're going to share that over the course of the podcast, how you can get free stuff and get involved and do all that. But I want you to be entertained. I want it to be fun. I want you to look forward to oh my goodness, who's on this next podcast? And what the heck are they going to say? Because what I do know from the interviews I've already recorded, especially with the NHL, guys, is they shared things with me that they never shared with anybody else ever on media anywhere. I've never heard these stories. And I think that they felt comfortable enough with me that they would share. Guys crying, guys are emotional. You see things you've never seen before because I asked the right questions, they trust me as a brother, I would never put anything out there that would be disrespectful or wouldn't serve the greater good. So anyways, I'm super excited about it. I believe the NHL blessed me with a stepping stone and a soapbox to to speak from and it was a wild journey. I'm gonna tell tons of awesome stories and interview my old teammates, my old roommates, all those fun things. But I also believe that what I'm doing now with the coaching and the training, and the information is really my purpose in life. And that's why I'm excited about foster success codes, where you get inside the mind of champions to figure out how the heck, they became so special. I mean, so I'm not going to give any more away because I just want you to subscribe, and to listen and to watch these shows because they're going to be badass and they're going to be worth the price of admission. Trust me.
