Push your thinking further than feels comfortable. Extend your stamina past your previous normal. Take on the project that intimidates you. Say yes to the standard that terrifies you slightly. Because what lies just beyond your edge—your edge of endurance, of imagination, of craft—is where the breakthrough lives. Comfort is the enemy of mastery. Discomfort, approached with courage, is where you gr...

Meditate on your mortality often. Not a bad idea when you really consider it. To get away from the noise, to become really still and to reflect upon the last breath you’ll ever take. You see, to live a great human life is less about worldly winning and more about living your truth. Yes, to really win at life doesn’t mean you need a ton of social media followers and a lot of cash in your bank accou...

Practice gratitude daily. To lead is to see the blessings each day brings. You’ll also release dopamine–the neurotransmitter of motivation–which will kickstart your performance. The value of being grateful reminds me of the Persian proverb: “I cursed the fact that I had no shoes….until I saw the man who had no feet.” My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original...

There’s a real difference between being busy and being productive, as you know.  Most people are extraordinarily busy. Very few people are extraordinarily productive.  The distinction lives, not in how many hours you put in, but in the quality of your devotion to the work—and the rituals that protect that devotion.  My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original t...

The words you deploy can be weapons of mass inspiration. “I CAN get this done,” wreaks magic into your life, when repeated to the point that all hypnosis of limitation vanishes from your thinking.  Use the language of heroism and the conversation of courageousness and you electrify your followers, reminding them of the call on their lives to present their gifts to the world. Employ the self-talk o...

Victims are frightened by change. Leaders grow inspired by it. As things fall apart—for the brave few who wish to turn trouble into triumph—there are gorgeous opportunities.  These include the chance to become a beacon of hope, an example of excellence and a servant hero in hard times. My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certai...

All labor has real dignity when it is done with presence, consciousness (great word for us to live by!) and pride. There is no such thing as small work—only small attention. The risk of modern work culture is not just that we work too hard (without real rest), but that we are encouraged to perform rather than produce, to signal rather than serve.  A life of meaning, I humbly suggest, is built by t...

The famous CEOs I mentor and the celebrated billionaires I advise and the sports heroes I guide and the entertainment royalty I train are ALL “strategic worriers.” This means that, of course, they meditate and journal and pray and exercise and nature walk and use their mantras to upgrade their Zen. Inner peace is a priceless treasure. And yet, they never lose their fire. They REFUSE to get stale....

A happy family life is so essential to a happy life and it’s a real form of wealth (it’s the Third Form of Wealth in my latest book The Wealth Money Can't Buy ). Family reminds me that a life without love and being surrounded by kin is an empty vessel. To give and receive love is a miracle of sorts. My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’...

At a time when the majority are suffering from Broken Focus Syndrome, the moguls of industry have developed the magnificent ability to concentrate almost completely on the near-flawless execution of the few projects that will make their ethical ambitions real. When they work, they do real work versus fake work and understand the violence of being busy being busy. And wasting hours of their finest...

Genuine productivity requires a monomaniacal focus on the few things that count. Clean out the distractions from your work and life and devote to a monomaniacal focus on the few things that matter.  The best of the best—especially in the creative and athletic fields—generally only work 5 hours a day. Yet, the hours they are work are filled with peak work versus distracted toil.  I’ve explained “Th...

Short-term producers are consumed by trends, algorithms and immediate visibility. Creative giants (like Tolstoy, Salinger and Monet, for example) did the work to honor gift. And to express their voice. Lasting relevance was the inevitable result.

Victims face tough times and grow smaller. Real leaders and the best among us meet challenge—and rise into their primal bigness.   Yes, they feel scared or insecure or confused. Yet, they continue, understanding that hardship is the fire that makes heroes real.

Use stillness, silence and solitude as business tools. Be quiet daily, in a world of noise and overstimulation. Pay attention to the ideas your wisest self sends you. And refuel. Because in the face of volatility rest is not a luxury—it’s a necessity. Churchill, in the middle of World War 2 made the time to leave London on weekends to race (with a security escort) to Checkers, the country home, wh...

What an era we inhabit! 10 second videos of people dancing are consumed by millions yet too many of the heroic books remain unread by most. Be a contrarian. Go deep versus really wide. Have rich conversations. Think interesting thoughts. Apply rigor and excellence and carefulness to all that you do. Be a heavyweight in a culture gone ultra-light. My latest book “ The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is ful...

Postpone not your heart's most precious desires. Who knows what tomorrow brings.  Don’t assume the future will be a place where everything you’ve put off because you’re really busy right now can happen easily, effortlessly and wonderfully.  ...illness, pandemics, environmental disasters, financial setbacks, wars and attacks happen. Too often than I want to admit. [Hurts my heart to acknowledg...

Real leaders have the guts to have the hard conversations. Whether you lead a nation, an enterprise, a community or a family, we are all in the communication business.

All this pressure to be productive, all the time, no matter what the season, has made many among us see ourselves as unsuccessful. It’s made too many good souls exhausted.   And left a ton of our brothers and sisters in the world fearing they are somehow of less value. There are a few remedies. The first is to make sure that where you’re productive you’re really productive. And when the time for w...
