Too often I’m the one in my own way. A friend shared a quote from his mom saying, “The whole world is ready to step aside if you know where you want to go.” When you are unclear, unfocused, unsure, or simply unmotivated, the world can’t step aside. Decide. Then take your first action forward. Write about it every day. Several times a day if… View Article
Commitment. Your 100% commitment only happens when you weigh in, discuss, debate, and challenge ideas, issues, and opportunities in an unfiltered way. If you withhold, even a little, (like choosing to “pick your battles” or conserve your energy for a better time), you can’t be in 100%. One of the best results from healthy discussion and debate is that when every member of… View Article
Do you push yourself? Most of us don’t. I know I don’t. At least not in the domains that are challenging for me. This is why my clients who have graduated from EOS continue to have me facilitate sessions. Or they do a tune up once a year to ensure they don’t veer too far from the work we’ve done and the investment we’ve made. I often feel like I don’t provide as… View Article
Sometimes you just know. In fact, when you’re attuned in life, it’s most often the case. Therein lies the problem. A majority of the time, most of us are not dialed in enough to access the messages from our intuition, let alone to trust our gut. This is why we rely on our heads and the clutter between our ears, when we could be accessing… View Article
What happens when you have something important, pressing, vital, or interesting you are eager to share with someone and they don’t really pay attention? Even worse, what happens when they hear you, play along, and seem to be with you, but they’re not? You know the drill, when someone is there, making eye contact, seemingly interested but when you reference the… View Article
How do you define success? We all measure it differently. Some say it’s completing something, and you’d sign up to do it again. Others measure in money, material wealth, possessions, and stuff. Others measure by the accolades and awards they collect, and some measure relationships. How many and the quality are up to the person. Still others measure in the goals accomplished, the number of things they… View Article
Complacency. It’s something that happens when you begin to accept the results you have as all that is possible. It’s the benchmark of mediocrity and the crusher of dreams. Many teams become complacent with scorecard numbers and rocks over time. They begin to see the red numbers or hear the words “off track” week after week and resign themselves rather… View Article
It’s hard to write right now. Not because I don’t have words—but because words feel thin compared to the weight of this moment. 2025 was, without question, one of the hardest years of my life. And I’ve lived through plenty. Health challenges hit from multiple directions and didn’t let up. Clients I care deeply about were navigating their own storms. It felt relentless. So, when we turned… View Article
When you have a challenging message to deliver, a sensitive conversation to have, a crucial conversation waiting to happen, it’s better to ask yourself how much trust you have in the relationship than plan the right words to say. If trust is high, you can use the wrong words, muck up the details, and basically enter into it unprepared… View Article
I’ll be honest with you – I’ve pursued perfectionism too often, and it’s typically not a pretty story. I’ve been on a relentless quest for perfection more times than I’d like to admit. It’s what makes me a firm believer in prioritizing completion over perfection and part of the driving force behind our book Chasing Perfection – Shatter the Illusion; Minimize Self-Doubt & Maximize Success. You see, perfectionism often drags us into a… View Article
