Today is going to be a great day. Are you with me? As I write this, I’ve barely started my day and I can already tell you…it’s going to be a great day. I don’t know what the stock market is going to do. I don’t know what’s going to happen in Washington. I don’t know what’s going to happen overseas. But I’m …
Imagine you’re at a football game. The action on the field is pretty intense, so everyone’s eyes are fixed on the field. People are cheering and clapping. The marching band is playing. But you look to your left and one guy isn’t paying attention to the game at all. Not even a little bit. This guy is twisted around in …
Here’s a quick leadership riddle. Let’s talk about something we all have. It’s completely personal…yours is different from mine and vice versa. We take it everywhere we go. It impacts how other people see us. This thing…it determines most of the success we have in our careers and relationships. It’s always with us…and we’re always in control of it. …
How long have you had your current job? Are you fairly new on the job…or have you been in the role for a while? If you’ve been in your job for a long time…and by a long time let’s say seven or eight years…you’re outside the norm. Would you believe in today’s world most people have 12 to 15 jobs …
There’s a principle I love in the classic book The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey. It’s so simple.

I’ll say …
Let’s do a little exercise together. Think about the thing in your life that has been frustrating you. The thing that gives you the most trouble. The thing that – no matter how many times or how many ways you approach it – just doesn’t get fixed. Got it? Now…flash forward one year from today. It’s now a full year …
I have often asked people if they want to have extraordinary success. I have yet to come across a person that lacks that desire. We all have something inside of us that wants more for our lives. The most successful people in the world still have goals and dreams. I will take one step further and say all of us …
I was thinking about titling this blog post, “North, South, East, Success.” We all have heard how success is a Journey. I have heard John Maxwell say that “Success is not a destination, it’s a direction.” I’m a firm believer in this. The beginning of heading in the right direction must come with answering one question. Watch this video and take …
Failure is a common thing that we all run from. After all winning sounds like so much more fun. Success seems to be the opposite of failure. However, the most successful people in the world will tell you that failure is a necessary ingredient for success. Failure is when we have the potential to learn the most. Failure is where …
In my world there seems to be a tension between productivity and creativity. We have the artists versus the analytical. The reality is that with a business you must create both. Not only do you need both, but you need both to play together nicely. A creative person that can produce is an incredible asset to have for innovation. A …
