#0716 Your Future
Looking back I’ve had a few of these. A seemingly innocent moment where the trajectory of your life changes. Decisions that shift your story. These do not have to be by chance, you have the…

#0712 Roadblocks Rock
We’d never have rivers if water gave up when an obstacle felt too big. The light bulb, the plane and countless other innovations, all exist because they found a way. Nothing amazing happens in a…
#0711 Turning Up
If there was no 9-5 and you could work whenever you wanted, would more or less work get done? My guess is, for the vast majority it would be less. Discipline is more often mandated…
#0710 Change of Focus
Your intention is being hijacked by your attention. What you allow to fill your day may be robbing you of your dream outcomes. You may be busy, but what exactly is taking up your time….
#0709 Half an Ass
If you have too many nothing will get finished. Big goals break into projects, which in turn break into many tasks. The more big goals you have, the more the tasks compound into never ending…
#0707 Superpowers
It takes years to become an overnight success. Grinding, experimenting, failing, hitting lows, picking yourself up, going again. Not much in this world comes without effort. How much patience, resilience, self awareness and self forgiveness…
#0705 Client Needs First
Demand is not about your revenue goals for this month, that’s a consequence. Demand is the alignment of what your clients need, when they need it, based off what you can do for them at…
#0704 Knee Deep
You are too shallow. Ticking the box is great, but stopping there just makes you busy. Getting the task done feels like an achievement but to go from good to great you must go deeper….
#0701 New Month’s Resolution
They really do go faster. As each year ticks over it is easy to look back with achievement, regret, elation, sadness, fear or optimism, maybe a combination. Whichever emotion dominates use it as fuel to…
#0698 You Not Them
Mind your own damn business. Funnel that energy into self, family, friends and your livelihood. The world would be a different place.
#0695 Random Conversations
How did I end up here. You’re free styling in a conversation with a friend about housing prices and end up talking about the extinction of the Dodo. Without direction or purpose the number of…
#0694 Today’s Task
A small amount every day adds up. Chipping away at smaller doable tasks today compounds into achieving bigger goals in the future. Consistency is the key to making things happen in a timeframe that feels…
#0690 Slow Gratification
Getting started is easy enough, sticking with it is the bigger challenge. In a world defined by instant gratification it is becoming increasingly rare to observe those playing the long game. Sticking with something long…
#0685 Simple Acts
Reciprocity vs Kindness. One has the expectation of getting something in return whilst the other sets no such expectation. Interpretation of your actions seem to vary person by person. Forced to defend my acts of…
#0678 Launch It
Half-arsed, almost there, a little more to do, not quite happy, half-baked, a bit more, ninety percent there, a few more tweaks, a bit distracted, too much going on, busy busy busy. Launch it already….
#0676 The Pursuit
Do you need another course or do you need to take more decisive action. In the pursuit of a better way we can get lost in the next thing. You have a pile of inherent…
#0675 Overthinking
I rarely sit down to write with an idea in mind. Yet when I sit in my armchair, something invariably comes to me. Starting with a word or two and it flows from there. A…
#0673 Persistence
You win some, you lose plenty. A memorable phrase for any sales person to accept. Part of the process is to filter out those who do not suit or are not ready for what it…
#0666 King Cash
Cash flow is still king. It gives you options, confidence to make decisions, to keep moving forward, to grow. It needs to be regular, predictable, secure, robust. Cash flow allows you to control your own…
#0662 Go Deep
Stay with that thought. In meditation we aim to allow a thought to pass and then focus back on our breath. Thoughts come and go and that is the point. If you are trying to…
