\\u201cMy near death experience\\u2026\\u201d When you hear those words from today\\u2019s guest on the #MakeYourMark podcast, Zane Schweitzer, you\\u2019ll see how it renewed his sense of purpose, and as a 15X World Champion across several water sports, Zane has travelled the world many times over, happens to have a vibrant non-stop energetic personality, all packed into his 26 years! Zane has so many incredible stories, messages of hope, things you can do to save the environment, and how to ride 60 foot waves, all in one episode!

\\u201cNot many people look out at what\\u2019s in front of them and see the potential of what it can bring to their life. Most look out at an ocean and see a pool of water, of emptiness. I see a church, a playground, a place of refuge that\\u2019s open 24 hours, 7 days a week!\\u201d

Zane filled an hour + with great advice, deep insight, and a perspective I have yet to have experienced on this podcast! He probably set a record for quotes I could have used, and he truly is a remarkable young man who\\u2019s been riding the waves for years!

\\u201cWith big wave surfing you don\\u2019t have that moment to stop and think \\u2018Oh I\\u2019m not ready for this.\\u2019 The ocean is always going to keep coming, and you have to know the time to fight and the time to surrender.\\u201d

Zane will stir something inside of you, and lead you to positive action, whether it\\u2019s for yourself, your friends and family, or the environment that surrounds you. I really look forward to you tuning in to this, you\\u2019ll be thrilled you did. Mahalo!

\\u201cSwimming was something my parents had me doing before I could walk because I was surrounded by the water.\\u201d

\\u201cOne of my biggest motivations to do well in school was that my parents wouldn\\u2019t let me compete or travel if I didn\\u2019t have good grades!\\u201d
\\xa0
\\u201cMy near death experience...was a driving factor to not only be the best I can be for my craft, but also consider the actions I\\u2019m taking, and the ripple effect they cause. It gave me a much more grounding sense of purpose overall, to leave a positive footprint wherever I go.\\u201d

\\u201cI want to challenge you to embrace the power of choice, and to make choices through your day that not only benefit yourself, but the people around you and your environment.\\u201d
