With the new year approaching, you’ll notice I’m focused on making 2021 the best year yet! I’ve talked about habits before, but today, I’m going to dial in and ask you to take a look at what you do daily, which will make you who you are in 2021 and […]

Are you sitting at home in search of a direction?  2020 has proven to take the ideas we thought this year would bring and let them turn to vapor faster than we can think of new hopes and dreams. If you are waiting for your new path in 2021, please […]

As a business owner, I am the first to be enthusiastic and hold my clients in high regard. Many of them bring value to the table, make interesting introductions to other like-minded people, and even make constructive suggestions that will push us to be a better company with better products […]

If you are reading this, chances are we are like-minded people. Kindred spirits, if you will. And I, for one, am a dreamer. I dream big and want to conquer the world. Conquering big dreams can seem daunting at times. It can often feel like a dream outweighs the possibilities. […]

This week, as I was reading motivation, I came across this classic from Jim Rohn. “Three Ways to Face Your Fears With Courage. I started writing a blog post and realized that I am better off sharing the original than trying to compete with one of the greatest of all […]

“Love yourself first because that’s who you’ll be spending the rest of your life with.”  Tough guys don’t talk about feelings. Right? WRONG. Today I’m getting real with all of you on a topic that is typically not blogged about with business owners and men.I want to talk this week […]

It’s my birthday week, and I’ve been reflecting on the past 30 (HaHa) years and all of the life lessons I’ve learned (mostly the hard way because I’m stubborn). I can say with certainty that I’m the happiest I’ve ever been, and I’d like to share the secret sauce to happiness compiled […]

Last week, I made a focus on accountability. This week, I’m shifting a little bit- to personal responsibility. It’s time for some real talk. Some of you might feel I’m a bit brutal, but I think it is necessary. Here’s the thing you are responsible for everything in YOUR life. […]

Modern accountability: an oxymoron or secret sauce for productivity? Many times, especially in modern business culture, the word accountability sends faces cringing and eyes rolling. People tend to associate the word “accountability” with the term “micro-management.” If you’ve ever been in a meeting where the boss or team leader mentions […]

“Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.”—Dale Carnegie If you are alive and breathing, it is inevitable to go through a valley in your life. If you haven’t gone through […]

This week’s blog post topic came to me over the weekend when I *almost* let a small moment ruin my entire day. So, this is also self-talk, as a reminder. What do I mean when I say, “stop letting a moment ruin your entire day”? Let me set the stage […]

As a business owner, and also a Dad, there is something I find myself saying and thinking often. In business, success has followed me… along with failure. You see, one thing is for sure: there are many ups and downs when it comes to leadership, entrepreneurship, fatherhood, and even friendship. […]

My son, Alex, just turned 25 this week, and so perhaps this is one of the reasons I am reflecting on myself at age 25. There are so many things I’d like to tell Alex and Jake, but advising my sons, especially at age 21-25, tends to fall on deaf […]

Being a business owner and entrepreneur, I face a different series of challenges each day. From managing a remote sales team to staying connected to my business partners with thousands of miles between us, communicating and dealing with customers, and all the things running a business involves.
