Bars: Ball Later, Ball Now (ft. Nipsey Hussle) Oct 23, 2019

Show notes

On the road to what you ultimately desire, you will be faced with choices... Do I invest, or do I wait? Do I make a move, or do I sit still and continue to grind? It is confusing, and sometimes in our quest to be "wise" and "intelligent', we end up hoarding resources, only to further reinforce the results we don't want, and it prevents us from growing. Nipsey Hussle had a different approach. He didn't spend recklessly, without a plan... and he also didn't sit on his money, waiting for "the promised land". He had a "ball later, and ball now" mentality. In this episode, I break down his philosophy, and show you how this is relevant to you and your process. #BARS

The Control Series: Aggression Oct 11, 2019

Show notes

Control is the name of the game. One of the biggest reasons why so many lack a sense of control, as they navigate towards their ultimate visions and goals, is lack of aggression. This word gets a bad wrap... but it's a form of energy - a gift to those who know how to create it, and channel it in the right direction.

In the fourth installment of the Control Series, I break down the importance of having a STRATEGY. Most are winging it, and fooling themselves into thinking they are progressing, when all they are doing is checking boxes. You must take on the mindset of the most dominant athletes of all time. Floyd Mayweather. Muhammad Ali. Michael Jordan. Kobe Bryant. Not only were they disciplined, tireless workers; they were strategic. I break down the common mistakes most make, and how to be a true strategic leader to put yourself in the ultimate position of #CONTROL.
