  • Blog #21 – Family

    Family is important to me. I have the best family ever!

    You never know when you are going to find inspiration but every time I see my family I get motivated. Everyone works hard and doesn’t complain. It makes me reflect on my life and see how I can do what I do better.

    If they can do what they do and be happy then I can do what I do an be happy.

  • Blog #20 – Teamwork Makes the Dream Work

    Surround yourself with people that compliment you.

    There is no way for someone to do everything. If you know yourself and what you are good and bad at then you can find other people that are good at what you are bad at. People that cover up your weaknesses and highlight your strengths.

    Surround yourself with people who are just as passionate as you are. You and your team must have a common goal and purpose.

    These things have always been said and you’ve probably heard them before. The problem is most people do not know how to recruit people.

    You have to sell your dream to people and get them to believe as much as you do.

  • Blog #19 – Hard Work Beats Talent

    Most people are not talented.

    Chances are that you are average. You have an average life and get average results.

    The good thing is that is does not matter your current situation. All that matters is that you are willing to work hard to get to where you want to go.

    The harder you work the more talented you will be!

    Do not let an excuse that you are not talented enough stop you. You are not talented enough because you are just starting.

  • Blog #18 – How to Manifest Something You Want

    If you want something you don’t have then you have to do things you’ve never done.

    There is no way to get something that you have not earned.

    The key to doing things you’ve never done is to visualize yourself doing them. Visualize everything that you want. Visualize who you want to be. Visualize how much you want to get paid. Visualize yourself receiving everything you want. Visualize yourself visualizing.

    The mind and the imagination are incredible tools that are not used to their fullest capacity.

    When used intentionally the mind can be trained to help us achieve all of our wildest dreams.

  • Blog #17 – Balance is Key to Everything

    It is good to be patient and let your skills develop. Then you must not get comfortable being patient. You must balance the patience with impatience.

    You must be extremely impatient and push yourself to make things happen.

    There is a balance where you are pushing yourself but at the same time not so much that you get discouraged.

  • Blog #16 – Keep Your Head Down and Grind

    Do not try to avoid the struggle. Embrace it!

    Leaning into the struggle turns it into a game. You know what the opponent is so it is up to you to beat the opponent and win.

    There will be many distractions that try to throw you off your game. These can be people close to you telling you to quit or that you are not good enough. The biggest hurdle is getting over yourself. You must truly know yourself and conquer the inner voice.

    When you make yourself believe there is no stopping you.

    No matter what it is you are trying to do it can be done.

    The beginning is always the hardest part. Once you start then keep going and do not slow down.

  • Blog #15 – The Journey is More Important than the Destination

    We are all artists creating our life’s masterpiece. We have projects that we work on and usually the main goal we have is COMPLETING tasks We have to-do lists and we want to cross things off our to-do lists. Our goal is to FINISH something. When this is the goal. When we put all of our focus on the end. We lose sight of the present.

    We end up always being in a hurry. We end up being full of anxiety.

    When we finish the goal often we are not happy because we did not enjoy the process.

    I propose that once you know the outcome you want to achieve change the goal to the HOW.

    HOW are you going to get there?

    When you focus on the How the questions change. You are now asking, How can I be happy and accomplish this? How can I complete this and enjoy it? How can I incorporate the people I care about?

    With this shift of focus you are bringing yourself into the present moment.

    The end is not the most important thing but how you get to the end.

  • Blog #14 – What is your Perfect Day?

    Would you know it if it happened?

    Do you have a target for what would be the perfect way to spend 24 hrs?

    There are 7 times a week or 356 times a year you can try to achieve that perfect day.

    We are creatures of habits so you are either getting closer to this day or further away from it.  The goal is not to have the perfect day once but to have the perfect day every single day.

    Your day should be helping you get closer to your long term goals and your future perfect day.

    String together perfect days and focus on your progress.

    We all fall off but must get back on.

  • Blog #13 – Why so serious?

    FunThings are not as big as I make them out to be.

    The goal is to have more fun and not take everything so serious.

    I have the best time when I am playing not when I am overthinking.  Tasks are more enjoyable and actually easier.  The output is better.

    Do not be scared to look stupid.

    The more you play the more you win!

  • Blog #12 – Repetition is the Key to Success

    With repetition comes confidence. With repetition comes credibility. Repetition builds momentum.  With repetition something small compounds into something enormous. With repetition something amazing is built.

    Live everyday!

    Repeat the good things.
