I’m Neil Schoepp
I help driven people stop overthinking and start executing
Your Subconscious Has Hijacked Your Ability to Execute
You set goals. You want more from life. But every time you start making progress, you retreat. You tell yourself you’re lazy, unmotivated, or too busy.
None of that is true.
The real reason you’re stuck? Your subconscious mind is running the show.
It’s keeping you exactly where you are—not because it wants to hurt you, but because it thinks it’s protecting you.
Until you reprogram the beliefs running your subconscious, nothing in your life will change. thinking?
Until you change your beliefs about money, it will never increase.
Until you change your beliefs about relationships, they will never improve.
Until you change your beliefs about success, you will never arrive.
That’s why you start strong one day—then procrastinate the next. You push harder and harder, but you’re stuck solving the same problems that caused the struggle in the first place.
Albert Einstein said it best:
“You can’t solve a problem with the same thinking that caused it.”
But how do you change your thinking?
As a retired fireman and police officer, I spent 24 years facing fear head-on. Split-second decisions weren’t optional—they were the difference between life and death.
Yet when I retired and transitioned to civilian life, I felt lost.
Everyone told me, “You have a story. Everyone has a story.” But I didn’t see it. My life didn’t feel special.
Then one day, it hit me—I had been living a story. My entire career had been about overcoming fear.
Finally, I had my message.
Then, almost immediately, I spiraled into overthinking.
I was stuck in a blacked-out room, fumbling for a light switch.
I told myself, “This won’t work. No one will listen. I don’t have the right credentials.”
I overanalyzed every move, paralyzing myself into inaction.
Every year, I set goals. Every year, I ended up exactly where I started.
The irony? As a fireman, I made split-second decisions without hesitation. In my personal life, I overthought myself into paralysis.
Then It Hit Me.
As a fireman, I didn’t have time to think—I just acted. Execution. Execution. Execution. Every second mattered. Every decision had consequences.
The missing piece? Action itself creates clarity. I had been waiting for the perfect plan, the perfect moment—but in firefighting, we created clarity by moving forward, assessing, adjusting, and executing.
When I finally reframed execution in my personal life, the fears that once felt overwhelming crumbled like paper tigers.
The more I took action—even messy action—the more I saw what worked, what didn’t, and what needed to change.
That’s when everything shifted. Execution wasn’t about having all the answers first—it was about building momentum so the answers could reveal themselves.
Most Fears Are Paper Tigers
They look massive. They feel real. But the second you challenge them, they crumble. That’s when I knew:
Overthinking is the enemy. Execution is the solution
Now, I Help Driven People Stop Overthinking and Start Executing.
I created frameworks to reprogram your subconscious and make execution effortless.
AIR – Awareness, Intention, Repetition (change your thinking, change your life).
PPF – Past, Present, Future (learn how your past created your present, so you can design your future).
FAST CARS – The ultimate system for setting goals you actually achieve.
When you use these tools, execution becomes part of who you are.
You stop running in circles.
You stop working harder on the wrong things.
You start taking intentional action and build unstoppable momentum.
I’ve spent my life putting out real fires. Now, let me help you put out the fires in your mind.

“I don’t know where to begin to describe the fire, intensity, drive and motivation that Neil can bring out of not just an individual, but an entire room when he speaks. I had the pleasure of having Neil as a guest speaker at one of my real estate events. His knowledge and ability to articulate mindset and motivation in ANY area of life is second to none. Whether it is in regard to your family, your job, your lifestyle or a new business endeavor, MINDSET and how you THINK about your situations, good and bad, can make or break you. Neil is able to guide you through processes to get you thinking in the right direction and how to mentally redirect yourself when a negative thought does emerge. I highly recommend Neil to ANY business who needs a boost. Thank you, Neil, for taking the time to help myself and my meetup!”
~Francesca Apostolou, Movers & Shakers Weschester, NY
”Neil is a true motivator and will shake your limiting beliefs! He spoke at my meetup in January and left the audience empowered and ready to make it happen. If you want to make lasting change in your life, Neil is the guy!”
~ Greg Scully, Real Wealth Solutions Johnson City, TN
Neil was our kick off speaker for a small real estate conference we hosted. He nailed the presentation! We had a fairly small group, so Neil skipped the microphone and brought his presentation into the crowd. It was a great combination of actionable content complimented by Neil’s experience as a police officer, firefighter and business owner. Frankly, it was great relief to me personally, I was nervous as a first time event presenter – Neil’s energy was a great motivator.
~ Amy Lehman Strickler, Lehman Strickler Insurance Agency, Milford, PA
“We found Neil Schoepp’s message on Mindset to be extremely inspiring and uplifting! Neil was very energetic and discussed things we could all relate to in our lives. He focused on helping us to be more positive in our workspace and in our home life. He helped us understand we have a choice as to how we think and feel and it’s up to us to control that. We learned to say we “intend” to do something instead of we “want” to do something. We are excited to implement some of these things he taught us in our day to day lives and see how our future will change for the better!”
