Don’t we all wish that we had more time in the day? More time to get all the things done that we have to do. I wish I had more time, but clearly, we don’t, and we won’t. We are stuck in our 24 hour day. So, what’s the solution? How do we get more…

Don’t Be Motivated
The beginning of a new year blankets us all with a sense of a renewed motivation. Some of us strive for better eating habits, more exercising, reading more, or a million other new years resolutions. It is all nonsense. None of you will do any of that. And I won’t either. If you have ever…
I Discovered the FOUNDATION of The Friday Rally
2018 was terrible for The Friday Rally. Very little content, poor consistency, just plain amateur. I thought about it all year. I tried hard to figure out why. Do I not have enough good ideas? – Probably true. Am I a poor creator of content? – Sure. Was I too lazy? – As usual. These…
How do you know which direction your life is going?
When I started my new career over a year ago I was given a task that I have never attempted before. Actually, the whole staff was required to do it. It was called an OPPP. One page personal plan. It was a one-page template that was going to help me dial in my personal life goals….

Read to Read, Read to Learn
I don’t know when humanity began to read but in my mind, it is the greatest innovation in all of history. The capacity to put thoughts down on the page and then to share those thoughts is remarkable. Reading gave us the means to store information and spread our ideas throughout the world. It amazes me that…
Control your calendar, Control your life.
The most difficult discipline to develop in my experience has been owning my calendar. I believe that this discipline is one of the keystone disciplines that need to be developed. It will control the level of success we ultimately achieve in life. The bad news is I fail at it daily. The good news is I am working…
