I'd rather die enormous than live dormant that's how we on it Live at the main event, I bet a trip to Maui on it--Jay Z "Can I Live".

That's pretty much how I feel about life. Freedom over formality is what I say and how I live. That's why I haven't had a boss in close to 10 years, why I started this podcast, and why I don't push my kids to stick with inconsequential activities if that's not what makes them truly happy. 

The Duke and Duchess have recently chosen their own freedom over royal formality recently and I absolutely love it. They're shining a light on the fact that we often make our own happiness or our own unhappiness. The choices aren't always easy, but if they're just--happiness will follow. 

Creativity over certainty. That's my mantra. Certainty does not motivate me. It actually has the opposite effect on me in a lot of ways. I thrive when I can be creative. I don't do well if I already know the outcome--usually low stakes anyway. Boring!

In this episode, I talk about how I've re-imagined the way I run my business and the early indicators of success I'm seeing. Most importantly, I'm doing it with a smile on my face--again!

How can you bring excitement back into your business?

However you define success, it's likely that your path to get there will not, or has not, been linear. If you're like most humans I know there will be many pitfalls and hurdles along the way.

This is an interview I did with someone who epitomizes what it makes to overcome many obstacles and challenges to get to a certain point in his life. He never makes excuses, he only makes progress, and that's what you'll hear in this interview. 

As 2020 begins it's a good time to start taking the old proverbial chips off the table and get ready to double down on another table. The last decade was all about working hard and taking risk, the next decade will be about de-risking and strategic planning. 

What am I talking about? Listen to this episode to find out. 

In this episode I talk about a lesson I learned about patience and why it's important to "trust the process" while watching the end my son's swim class.

This is part 2 of the synopsis of my first live webinar experience. I wish I could say it went as planned and that I didn't make any mistakes, but then you'd have to believe that I'm not human. As luck would have it, I am! As a matter of fact, the mistakes I had to overcome would make me "King of all Humans" if you were to judge humans by the number of mistakes they make.

Nevertheless, I powered through it until the end. In this episode I talk about the big mistakes I made and the number of sales I made by the end of the webinar. 

As I continue to reflect on 2019 and look forward to 2020, and beyond, I have discovered a new way to approach my business that will support my long term and short term goals.

I have an online business and and offline business. My offline business, (sales recruiting) pays for everything that I do online---except it's not all that exciting. My online business is exciting, but it doesn't generate anywhere near the income that my recruiting business (offline)does?

I need to be excited about what I do everyday otherwise I will not be able to sustain long term success. So I needed to come up with a plan. A new way to approach business that would be exciting and profitable. Something I could do for the next 20 years and not get bored. I talk about what that is in this episode. 

Now that we're coming to the end of another year, it's a good time to stop and pause to think about what's next, what's most important, and how to achieve what you want.

Like all good running backs in football, we need to pause long enough to see where the opening is and then run through it as fast as we can as soon as we recognize it. Without that pause, we could end up getting tackled for a loss. 

That's what this episode is about.
