As an entrepreneur, one of the worst words you can imagine is...
FAILURE.
Failure is...
Unacceptable.
To be avoided at all costs.
The worst thing that can happen.
But just step away from the drama of the word for a moment.
Failure simply means:
- The lack of success.
- The omission of expec...
You work and strain and struggle toward your goal.
And you think that once you get there... then you will celebrate.
But imagine that.Â
Let's say, December 31 you reach your 2022 goal.Â
On that day, you can love life.Â
Celebrate like crazy.Â
Go wild.
But between now and then, every single day...
When you set your goal, it is easy to see it as this big... blob.Â
A kind of indistinct, abstract, other thing.
A big idea, that you are on board with, but really have no real concept of what it means.
Or how you will get there.Â
But your goal is actually made up of many smaller goals.Â
Of hund...
It's time to get started.Â
Â
Just because the calendar turns to a new year doesn't mean things start to happen magically.
Â
But it does mean it's a regular rhythm to press reset on what you are doing every day.

To create new daily habits that move you closer to the dreams you want to achieve...
The first Monday of 2022.
Did you wake up, sit at your computer and know exactly
what you needed to get done?
Did you get at it, feeling confident that you were doing
the work that would help you reach your dreams in
2022?
Dreams about the business you want to create.
Dreams about the life you want to crea...
Sometimes you might not like to look back and evaluate because you only use the information to beat yourself up.
To look at all the things you did wrong.
All the ways your results didn’t meet your desires.
And all the ways you failed.
You do this because somewhere along the way you were taught t...
You are so close to your business.Â
So emotionally tied to your results.
You put your value, your worth, your success into your results in your business.
But this is a HORRIBLE way to run your business.
It leaves you at the mercy of your current results.
So you have to stop living in the drama ...
We have an entire holiday in the United States dedicated to gratitude.
It turns out, there is a good reason.
And it’s not just history.
Gratitude is POWERFUL.
If you are interested in the neuroscience, check out this article (after you finish this one!). It explains how:

Your brain likes to tell you that at the core of your fear is safety.
That the fears it is blaring at you are logical.
But most of the time they really aren’t.
And at the core, what you are really afraid of is your feelings.
Specifically, whatever feeling you will feel if your fear comes true.
...I want you to imagine a child who is afraid to go to sleep because she is afraid of the dark.
Afraid of “monsters under the bed.”
Lying there in bed, she imagines all kinds of scary things.
And her fear gets more and more intense.
And she cries out to her parents.
Her dad comes into the room an...
One of the biggest reasons you don’t get things done that you planned to do is fear.
Not the more easily identifiable fears of physical and financial safety, but the fears that usually are deeper down.Â
Your emotional fears.
It’s your emotional fears that really get you.Â
Your emotional fears ar...
Fear.
It is THE THING that gets in your way more than anything else.
Especially in business. And in how you spend your time.
Nothing derails you more quickly from working on your goals, doing hard things in your schedule, or showing up as your best self in meetings like fear.
For sure, there is ...
