Ready. Set. Access.

Try It

It’s probably not as painful as you’re making it seem.

You’ll never know until you try.

A Home for Everything

Work on a system that goes to work for you.

Organize into enough categories so you can find what you’re looking for right away, but so few that you can scan them in just a second.

This goes for project files, emails, time, pajamas, the pantry, books, ….

The Necessity of Incompetence

The feeling of incompetence is inevitable on your way to learning.

It’s not your enemy, but an indication that you’re moving on from your old self.

There’s no bigger satisfaction than knowing that just a moment ago you were terrible.

Good Ideas Get Stolen

When your idea gets stolen, you’ve received a compliment.

It was a good one!

A Chance to Invent the Future

William Penn risked his position, fortune, and safety to build a colony in an uncharted part of the world. He got lucky.

Sir Walter Raleigh did the same thing but was not so lucky.

We cannot predict the future, but we get a chance to invent it.

Will to Do

If your team is unable to get it done, is it due to lack of skill or will?

When You Meet the Person You Could Have Become

All our decisions have real consequences. But we may not see the consequences until they begin compounding.

Think about the person you could be in 10 years, 50 years, and even 150 years. 

Will you jump for joy or sink in despair the day when the person you are becoming meets the person you could have become?

You Can Do Better Than That

A tactic intended to help your customers get to where they’re going is not generous enough.

A truly generous tactic is one that enhances selflessness with irresistibility.

Your tactic should help your customers create a story that, when told to the others in their web of community, helps them improve their status and affiliation.

A truly profitable tactic changes culture while getting stronger, not weaker, with every use.

Today Is the Day

You will not be able to start tomorrow because tomorrow never comes.

Start today and have a plan for tomorrow.

Incredible Power

We don’t have infinite power.

But we have more power than we will ever realize.
