As a leader (and as a person), your most valuable resource isn’t your money. It’s not your title. It’s not even your time. It’s trust. Trust is the currency of relationships. It determines how much we’ll risk. Hard conversations, innovation, and healthy cultures are impossible without it. While earning trust pays dividends, it’s gradual work […]

“Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face,” Mike Tyson said. Sometimes, that punch isn’t literal. It’s life dealing you a blow. And it doesn’t even have to be major to knock the air from your lungs—just well-timed. I turned on my phone for the first time since my brother and I […]
Accidental soccer coach Ted Lasso is famous for telling his players to “be a goldfish.” Why? Because a goldfish has a ten-second memory and can’t dwell on its mistakes. That’s a plus, but there’s a downside. Research shows a connection between working memory and our ability to focus. “Individuals who perform well on memory tasks […]

You’re doing too much. All of us (if we have good, honest friends or mentors) have probably heard these words at some point. Some of you are there right now. You’ve been running at a sprint for weeks—maybe months!—and it’s starting to catch up with you. Why do we find ourselves here over and over […]
Here’s an unfortunate truth: All goals eventually lose their shine. The goal that seemed essential and exciting on day one can feel more like a chore after a few weeks. Maybe progress hasn’t come as quickly as you hoped. Maybe pursuing your goal is much more, well, ordinary than you anticipated. Or maybe you’re encountering […]

It’s New Year’s Day. And if you haven’t already set some New Year’s Resolutions while staying up too late last night, you’ll probably find yourself thinking about the next twelve months sometime today. And if you’re not careful, you’re bound to fall into one of these common traps. Trap 1: Letting Shame Chart Your Course […]
Despite mantras to the contrary, attempting to travel through life “fearlessly” is rarely wise. Fear is a fine-tuned survival mechanism. It helps keep us safe on the edge of a cliff or walking down a dark road. It prompts us to proceed carefully in conversations marked by power imbalance or when we have a lot […]
Last week, we explored how Q4 pushes people to accumulate tasks, activities, and obligations. The driver behind that accumulation? Urgency. Urgency drives us to go, go, go. We move through the day at a frenetic pace, cramming in everything we can. We fight accumulation by simplifying. We fight urgency by stopping. When we stop, we […]
The global landscape has undeniably shifted, with more of us working from home than ever before. While this offers incredible flexibility, it also brings unique challenges, particularly when it comes to maintaining a healthy work-life balance. The Remote Work Revolution: A Double-Edged Sword The benefits of remote work are plentiful, from eliminating stressful commutes to […]
Imagine for a moment you’re at dinner with two friends. One friend is a super high-acheiver, working 65 hours a week, exhausted, and burnt out. They barely made it to dinner on time and will check emails the whole night. Their list of tasks is endless. The other friend feels stuck at work and is […]
It’s 6:30 a.m. and your alarm just went off. You get out of bed, shower, brush your teeth and put on a pot of coffee. Every day. Like clockwork. Your morning routine is automated. You don’t really have to think about it. It’s a ritual. We have processes in place for some of the simplest […]
Dread. Shame. Frustration. Hopelessness. We all feel many of the same things when we’re trying to make changes in our lives and just aren’t getting to where we want to be. We’ve all experienced the disappointment that comes with not being able to stick to a habit that really matters to us. As a Full […]
Have you ever picked up your phone and ten minutes later wondered what you were supposed to be doing? We’re constantly connected to our devices, and this makes us more disconnected from ourselves, others, and being present. The inability to stay focused has become a common 21st-century problem. We’ve all felt that sense of overwhelm […]
Your Ideal Week is a football field. On Monday, you’re starting at your own goal line. As the week progresses, you’re throwing screens and crossers, running the ball in chunks and moving down the field, crossing midfield on Wednesday with your eyes set on the end zone—the weekend. If you look at the Ideal Week […]
Chances are pretty good you’ve helped a friend or family member move at some point—voluntarily or otherwise. Let’s be honest: It’s a task no one enjoys. It’s labor-intensive, tiring, sometimes boring, and you’re likely spending an entire day doing it. No amount of free pizza is worth that. Still, you love your friends and family […]
It’s that time of year: Spring cleaning. It’s an annual tradition that goes back forever, and most of us get a piece of the action. Seven in ten Americans participate every year. You can find countless spring-cleaning checklists, tips, and shortcuts. But most of these lists miss the messiest part of our lives: our to-do […]
If we’re truly honest with ourselves, we are all involved in work that we love but aren’t necessarily the best at. Consider for a moment Florence Foster Jenkins, an American socialite who had dreams of being an opera singer. The problem? She simply could not sing. Her social standing, wealth, and passion allowed her to […]
“If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself.” How often have we heard this, said this, and truly believed this? The fact is, it’s simply not true. Think back on the first quarter of 2023. How many times did you finish a work week thinking only of unaccomplished tasks that needed […]
“I haven’t seen you in forever. We should get together soon!” How often have you had this conversation with a friend you ran into at a birthday party or going for a jog in the park? It’s been months since you’ve seen one another and, unfortunately, it’s looking like it might be a few more […]

If thinking big doesn’t come naturally to you, you are not alone. But this mindset can be learned. I want to encourage you to use these strategies to help unlock the dreams you have and use it to create a clear vision as you move into a new year.
