No — You Don’t Need More Money To Be Successful.

Often, the discussion about success becomes a discussion about making more money. The two are easily interchanged. More money equals more success — and more happiness too. Got a marriage problem? If you only made more money you wouldn’t have those problems. Got a work problem? If you only made more money you wouldn’t have those

Just Because You’re Lost Doesn’t Mean You Shouldn’t Be There.

One of the biggest reasons why being successful is so hard is that you are not do we sure which direction to go in order to get you where do you want to be. Figuring out the right direction to go is a painful task at times. You can’t help but hear people telling you what

You Have To Do The Time.

There’s no shortcut for the time that it takes for you to start seeing results. You can’t wish that time to be any shorter. You can’t will that time to be in a shorter. Big plans don’t just take lots of money and effort and smart thinking, they take time — sometimes lots of it.

What Comes Next?

Passion is a great accelerant  – but can be dangerous when you blindly let it drive your actions. There are many things around you that can cause you to be distracted, annoyed, or otherwise unfocused on what really matters. Circumstances like running late for a meeting or getting stuck in an unexpected traffic jam can

One Thing Extraordinary People Do Better Than Everyone Else.

It’s easy to look at superstars and assume that they have something that you don’t have. It’s natural to automatically come to the conclusion that those who accomplish great things were born to be extraordinary. That doing mind-blowing feats of greatness was somehow predestined for them. An inescapable outcome. The truth about accomplishing great things

What Living Free Really Means.

Freedom isn’t an attitude. It’s not an opinion. It’s not your own white label edition of cynicism and skeptical thinking. Freedom isn’t about fewer rules and more time to yourself. Freedom is about overcoming the stupid things that stop you from achieving our goals. It’s about eating healthier so you can live happier. It’s about

When Your Thinker Makes You a Stinker.

What you think about most you become. The fears you allow to take root in your mind ultimately come true. Have you ever noticed that when you’re already in a grumpy frame of mind that bad things keep happening to you? You’re already late for work and then there’s a traffic jam and a problem

How To Win Big Doing Very Little.

You don’t have to do a lot each day to get a lot done over a lifetime. Having big dreams isn’t about you sprinting as fast as you can towards the finish line, only to collapse once you reach your goal. It’s about the mental fortitude to do a little bit each day until you get

Why Hard Work Works.

There is no escaping hard work. If you have big dreams — or even small ones — you have to work hard in order to be successful. Even working smarter is hard work. In fact, working smarter usually takes more time and effort up front then just working hard consistently day after day after day.

What No One Tells You About Being Amazing.

To be successful, you have to live life on your own terms. You have to do your own thing, your own way. You can take inspiration from others but you can’t copy the life they are living. You can take criticism and feedback from those around you, but you’ll never be happy if you try
