Lifebuilder with Stephen Courson

People actually aren't bad at making goals.  They're terrible at starting them. You don't start climbing a mountain by staring up at the peak all day. You get your gear together, then you plan you first few steps. Then you look ahead a few feet and figure out the next point you're trying to get to. Whatever your goal is, if you can't make progress on it in 30 minutes or le...

That's the fast road to average or worse. With a little extra investment into your s...

We need to combine two cliche's for a powerful realization. Nothing changes if nothing changes You can't change anything but yourself When you combine those two realizations, you come to a dangerous place where you can't pretend to be powerless in a situation.

Bitcoin just hit $50,000 for the first time in over 2 years. But its different this time. Why? Because of the journey. There's less roadblocks. Bigger players.

It's the end of 2023 and as I'm reviewing this very unique year in my life, I'm struggling with being discontent on how it went.

If you make this a regular part of your year, even if you pay for additional tra...

Everyone has personal systems.  The question is whether or not you intentionally set them up and if they are producing the outcomes you want. After coaching hundreds of people, I've come up with The Skeleton System. This is a system around money, time and cleaning that I think everyone can use. From there, they can build on top of it and create a personal system that's set up to help the...
