Remember your school days. Senioritis before you were a senior? Our goal was to graduate, finish whatever schooling was left, and get on with life.
But the reality is, schooling should never stop. To succeed, we've got to stop thinking that learning is for kids. We must be lifelong learners if we're going to stay on the Authority Journey.

My name is Kathryn Aragon, and I’m your host for today’s episode: Chaos, Uncertainty, and Growth.
Sam Ovens at Consulting.com, is an authority journey worth studying. In less than a decade, he went from living in his parents' garage to running a multimillion-dollar business.
I got to work with him for a short while after he moved to New York. The growth even from there to today has been nothing short of amazing.
Recently I saw his story of those early days. The word that stood out was "chaos."
That's the big takeaway I had from his story. Growth is chaotic. If you aren't comfortable with chaos... if you try to shut it down and contain it... you'll kill the growth.
When I experienced the injury to my spinal cord that left me bed-bound for 4 years, I was completely reliant on my family to feed me and bring me my computer.
Because of that, I got nervous when my business started to get chaotic. I didn't know that signaled growth. And I couldn't handle the stress, so I tried to contain it.
It created a slump in my business that I've had to work doubly hard to overcome.
> Growth is chaotic. You'll have multiple balls in the air, and you'll have no idea where they're going to land.
> You need to look for clarity, not control. Make sure you know where you're heading, so you can let some of those balls go. Some of your activities aren't in alignment with your goals — they just look attractive.
> Push through. Don't be afraid of chaos. You do need to manage it, but you don't need to be afraid of it.
How to manage chaos:
One thing at a time...
Sounds like good advice, doesn't it?
I recently realized something: while "one thing at a time" is good advice, it can actually slow your growth.
What's weird is I actually thought I followed the one thing at a time model. But I've realized, the only times I have done it are the periods where I was starting from zero OR my life was stalling out.
One thing at a time marks my moments of no growth. No achievements worth speaking about.
My name is Kathryn Aragon, and I’m your host for today’s episode: Fast-tracking Success
Belief in yourself is your responsibility. But most of us grow up with people telling us there are things we can't do or that we're not good at.
You may have people in your life who focus on the negative and may put you down or minimize your accomplishments.
Those voices can replay in our minds and block our success.
My name is Kathryn Aragon, and I’m your host for today’s episode: 4 Success Tips by Bezos
In an email to employees announcing his decision to step down, Jeff Bezos wrote,
“Keep inventing, and don’t despair when at first the idea looks crazy. Remember to wander. Let curiosity be your compass. It remains Day 1.”
You may have experienced people trying to convince you that you're goals or dreams are unrealistic. That you shouldn't think too highly of yourself.
In todays broadcast, I talk about how important it is to overcome the negative thoughts others may try to dump on you.
Takeaways from todays episode:
You've heard it said that you just have to fake it till you make it.

In today's episode I share why I believe there's a better solution for advancing your career and building your authority without having to fake it.
