What if you made the CHOICE to be fully present today?What would that mean to

... your employees?

... to your co-workers?

... to your spouse?

... your kids?

What is your wake of influence? Have you considered the tangible impact you have on others? Or, are you so busy & distracted that you don’t look back to consider your impact on others as you move through life?

Are you a restless achiever? Restless achievers fall into four main categories:

CONTINUAL LEARNER: Motivated by acquiring new skills and continually seek opportunities to grow. Despite this drive, you feel stuck in your current situation…

Are Frankenstein expectations robbing your joy and satisfaction?

What exactly are Frankenstine expectations? Frankenstein speaks to the unnaturally stitching together your expectations of life. Are you guilty of cherry-picking the “perfect” elements from others, personally or professionally, and using this information to create a dangerously unrealistic composite sketch of what success SHOULD look like for you?

Knowledge without application is useless.

Making progress towards a big goal or project creates critical psychological wins that reframe challenges and meaningful…

How do you deal with your fear head-on?

That's not a rhetorical question. Yes, I know I know... following me on LinkedIn means a constant stream of direct and thought-provoking questions. The alternative is a stream of fluff or generic information.

If you are feeling stuck on making a major decision I’d like to STRONGLY recommend…

How do you describe your challenges or obstacles when speaking with others? Do you focus your energy and attention on obsessing over every detail and infraction? Do you hijack conversations to rehash every detail and litigate your case to unsuspecting jurors? Perhaps … just perhaps … rekindling and enhancing your negative emotional state?

The obsession with focusing on massive change is overrated.

Let me speak clearly… the idea of focusing on massive change is akin to throwing a hail mary in your life.

You dream up the big play and cross your fingers it works. If it doesn’t… hey... you can let yourself off the hook because you gave it a shot. Right?

In celebration of a major website revision I’m offering the Kindle version of Catalyst: Ignite Your Spark Within to Achieve Powerful Transformation FREE for the next 72 hours.

Do you have margin in your life? Margin, or whitespace, is a critical element of unlocking your greatest potential. What exactly is margin? I define it as an intentional space in your day to think without overload from external stimulus.

It’s time to get brutally honest. Where is the current trajectory of your life leading?

If nothing changes about your present circumstances where will you be in 5 years, 10 years, or even 20 years? Is that acceptable? If you’re anything like I was 15 years ago, that answer is a RESOUNDING NO!

What are the likely outcomes if you continue to wait for the perfect moment to take action? Deep down you know you were born for more. BUT… one BIG BUT …. The time hasn’t been right. You have patiently been waiting for the “right time” to take action. The perfect moment. The ideal opportunity. Always thinking. Continually tinkering. Blah blah blah….

If you are like many successful achievers “what is the meaning of my life” questions run in the back of your head as you navigate the day-to-day logistics of life. Am I on the right path? What’s my purpose?

Juggling the demands of corporate life with the desire to be an engaged parent and devoted spouse likely leaves you with a feeling your internal drive to accomplish more has created conflict.

How can you juggle all the priorities without sacrificing the things that matter most in life?

Let’s grab a seat and talk. How is the health of your marriage? If you are like many high achievers your professional success masks a relationship hanging on by a thread. You put on a game face at work but deep down there is hurt and pain.

You love your kiddos. I know that. They know that. The problem is they don’t FEEL your love. They may share your last name but don’t get your attention, focus, and energy.

You are always too busy with work to notice them. Too hypnotized by your phone to make eye contact. Too caught up in your own drama to be engaged. Worst case you love the idea of your kiddos but view them as a distraction; an annoyance getting in the way of selfish accomplishment.

According to Gallup 67% of workers feel burnt out always or sometimes. That is a staggering 2 out of 3. Is that you?

Over the years I’ve fallen in that category and rationalized away the feeling of burnout. I’ve even worn burnout as a badge of honor. Look at how many hours I worked.

One of the most common phrases I hear is “I deserve to earn more!” I get it! You believe you have more to contribute and should get compensated fairly.

The reality is “deserving” to earn more is NOT a plan… that’s entitlement. You feel you should be compensated for your potential.
