  • Fully commit, Get sh*t done and Feel good about it.

    TL;DR: Ask yourself “The ONE Question”, then commit to a time-span that’s not too long. —- When I am feeling in the zone it’s usually because of deep focus. I haven’t had this feeling since my 90-day sprint ended. What is a 90 Day Sprint? Inspired by Todd Herman’s 90 Day year. (I can’t wait…

  • I can’t write

    The thought of writing is painful.  I don’t want to get started. Honestly, the only way I think I can write is to build it into a habit. So it’s more automatic muscle memory than “will power”. I also thought about maybe writing short blog posts, as a series as well.
