You will get what you want, when you stop making excuses on why you don’t have it.

Focusing on what we don't have draws us closer to what we don't have. More of the same.

Living today with intention is what you have to do.

Our dreams will evolve and develop over time.

Developing a habit to make every day count provides an astonishing level of progress when you look back. Drips fill buckets.

Create happiness:

Wake up with gratitude, learn something new, compliment someone and stop complaining.

It's not that difficult.

Here's a tip for you today: be sure to listen to the episode.

Enjoy the day

“Do what you love, not what you think you're supposed to do.”

It's never too late to get the train back on the track. If you're willing.

I want to share a little about learning a skill and dedication to your intention. Success is never guaranteed.

Learning what is necessary to fulfill your dream will always be more difficult than you ever imagined.

That's why more people don't spend the time to master a craft.

The truth is that most people future trip how difficult it is and they quit before they even start.

Why? Because many of us have already amplified the challenges instead of the opportunities in being amazing at a skill.

Share your wisdom, share your skills and allow your past to be thrust into the future.

“I am strong because I've been weak. I am fearless because I've been afraid. I am wise because I've been foolish.”

The reality is that I'm still weak, afraid and foolish now and then.

AND… I still keep at it. AND…

Because I'm weak I keep working to improve my skills.

I keep building my strength so I can help others My experience, my skills, and my network to get stronger so I can support your goals.

I'm on a mission to help 200 people help 200 people help 200 people.

I'm afraid because I know I can only help some of you.

And not all of you. I continue to connect, build and grow every day.

I can only help you if you're in the business of helping others.

And I might be foolish to imagine myself doing this, and I'm crazy enough to continue trying to strike another match. Again and again.

I was having a wonderful discussion with the Amazing Lany Sullivan

What did we discuss?

We are living in the age of the invisible celebrity.

A few days ago I talked about how YOU are the Media!

Social Media promotes the idea of becoming an individual and independent from the shackles of average.

What's the escape velocity of average?

Do you know? What's the size of your circle?

Being famous can last longer than 15 minutes...

I've included a tip for you. Check it out.
