Woke up in an Ambulance... restrained!

 Most of us can think of a pivotal day in our lives.  For me, it happened the day I woke up in an ambulance, fully restrained and not even knowing how I ended up there.  Let me share my story here and how I specifically changed my pattern in life.

Beyond Right and Wrong: The Power of Asking This Instead

Good morning from Raleigh! Happy Thursday, let's talk about a subtle shift in perspective that can have a big impact on our decision-making and interactions: Rather than thinking right or wrong, choose to look at effective and ineffective. We're often conditioned to frame things in binary terms: this is the right way, that's the wrong way. This can lead to rigid thinking, unnecessary conflict, and a resistance to exploring alternative approaches. But the world, especially the world of business, is rarely black and white. What truly matters isn't whether something aligns with a preconceived notion of "rightness," but whether it actually works . Is it achieving the desired outcome? Is it moving you closer to your goals? Is it fostering positive results? Think about it: Marketing strategies: Instead of arguing about which approach is inherently "right," focus on which one is generating the most leads and conversions. Team dynamics: Instead of labeli...

The Unfinished Game: Why Today's Score Isn't the Final Tally

Spencer here again with another daily dose, from Virginia Beach, VA. The day's wins might feel good. The sting of a setback might linger. But here's a quiet truth worth holding onto: Just because you are winning doesn't necessarily mean you have won. And just because you might be losing, doesn't mean you have completely lost. Today's tally is just that: today's. The game isn't over. The story continues. We get seduced by the immediate feedback loop. A big sale? We're on top. A lost client? We're doomed. But these are often just blips on a longer radar. Winning today can breed complacency. A belief that the momentum is automatic, that the hard work is done. But the market shifts. Competitors adapt. Complacency is the slow leak that sinks even the most buoyant ship. And losing today? It can feel like the end. The final curtain. But often, it's just a data point. A course correction. A chance to learn, to pivot, to come back stronger. The greatest c...

The Belief/Action Gap

The gap is where we live. We tell ourselves a story. We believe in a better version of ourselves—a version who writes the book, starts the business, gets in shape, or has the difficult conversation. We believe we can do better. And yet... we don't. Belief is a powerful thing. It can move mountains. But it's also a convenient one. It allows us to feel good about the potential without doing the work. It's the difference between knowing the recipe and actually baking the cake. The belief that you can do better is not a free pass. It's a call to action. It’s an invitation to close the gap. Because the true measure of belief isn't what you say, it's what you do. So, if you believe you can do better, what are you waiting for? The gap isn't going to close itself.
