Going to be doing a lot more coaching and mentoring work again this year Put it on pause to explore some other areas of curiosity, but made me realize how at home I feel when guiding people towards becoming the best version of themselves So if there's something you're

You've seen those lists about the top regrets of the dying. Every single person says the same thing. They wish they had the courage to do what they actually wanted. To actually let themselves be happy As real as it gets. The truth is in plain sight. They literally gave you the

The most frustrating thing about being ambitious is that you become hard to relate to. You're out there taking big swings. Your days are constantly filled with surprises. You have to stomach massive fluctuations to your net worth. You have to keep cool through all the uncertainty

The purest definition of success: Any given moment, if you were to imagine that today was your last day on earth, would you be able to say, "Out of all the decisions I've made up until this point, I'm confident that the majority of them were sponsored by courage rather than fear"

When you're down bad, the biggest trap is thinking your loved ones are seeing you in the same way you're seeing yourself. Maybe you lost a lot of money. Maybe you faded an opportunity you shouldn't have. Maybe you just messed up, plain and simple You feel tremendous amounts of

Huge mistake I used to make was letting other people dictate my beliefs around money. I'd see these posts about how much you need to retire, monthly spend required to live comfortably, and a host of other claims I'd then compare it my own situation and always feel this pit in my

Manifestation is real. Let me explain it in a way you'll understand. Imagine or think back to your senior year of college. You're interviewing for jobs during the school year and end up getting an offer to start right after you graduate You check your graduation date and realize

Whenever you claim to be struggling, part of you knows you’re full of shit. This part of you knows you’re playing it up to prove a point. It knows if you stopped being dramatic, you’d lose the ability to elicit sympathy. It knows you care more about looking right than being happy

If you make it seem like you’re not doing well, people can no longer expect greatness out of you. They can no longer depend on you. It frees you from the weight of responsibility, but locks you in the prison of victimhood You sigh, complain, and blame as a defense mechanism to

You need to start explaining yourself less. Only one line. An earnest "that's on me, won't happen again" will do. Maybe a "still trying to work through some things, I'll move on from it eventually" and then drop it You know why you screwed up. You know which intrusive thought

The reason is that you're afraid. It's not because you don't have time, aren't passionate about it, or that money doesn't make you happy You're afraid of realizing that you were actually wasting a lot more time than you thought. That you didn't actually care about passion as

Most people need permission to stay calm. They need a school to say, "If you pay us 6 figures, you'll get a job." They need an employer to say, "If you stay for 2 more years, you'll get promoted." They need someone to say, "If you do this, you'll be fine" They need to be fed the

Believing in yourself doesn't mean things will go according to your plan. It means however things do go, you have faith in your ability to adapt to whatever presents itself. You trust that there will always be a way. You don't care about how much you miss, only how much you shoot

I'll give you a real answer. It's just the natural byproduct of trying to actually live more life. I try to take risks that feel right. Expose myself to new experiences that could inspire me in some way It puts me in a lot of situations. Sometimes they can be considered good.

So much of why you struggle to make decisions is because you don't know how much your own peace of mind is worth There's an opportunity calling you in another city, but your current lease isn't up yet. The simple solution would be to break it. Yes, you'll have to pay a fee to do

With anything you pursue, imagine the most cracked version of that pursuit playing out. Business is booming. Demand is soaring. What types of responsibilities would your day to day involve? However that looks, this is the make it scenario. If everything were to gloriously work

So many people get rich and become depressed or feel empty because their goals were never a genuine extension of themselves There's stuff you already value today. Interests you've already been leaning into today. Have a goal to make more money? You already know how you're going

Problem is most people only think about the end of the journey. They're solely motivated by what their lifestyle could look like after they hit some arbitrary number or milestone But they don't realize that in order to get there, there's another lifestyle that has to be lived
