It’s shaping you for your next breakthrough.

 As I near the completion of my book "Act on the Big Thing," I’ve been reflecting on the final chapter—one dedicated to resilience and accountability. While accountability felt straightforward, I struggled with resilience. Something just didn’t sit right. In fact, I nearly cut it out altogether.

But ...

The journey to achieving your big thing is filled with challenges, but developing and embracing a sense of urgency can be the key that unlocks your potential. Urgency is the force that turns intentions into actions, prioritizes what truly matters, and ensures that you are always moving forward. It’s...

In my last post, I called distractions the enemy because they pull us away from what we truly want to achieve. To overcome this and avoid the usual resistance, I suggest taking 15 minutes before starting your big goal to simply think. Yes, just think. Introspection is the real key to overcoming dist...
