The No-Code Advantage

With many of us working from home, or at least spending more time at home these days, the term "work-life balance" has brought on an entirely new meaning. How do you know when to lay down your work for the day? How can we differentiate between the blurred lines of work, family obligations, career aspirations and cooking dinner? It's a freaking nightmare. One of the keys to pulling off a successful...

We all have 168 hours in a week. Whether you're Oprah Winfrey or the President or just a normal person. So how do some people use those 168 hours to get done 100x more than someone else? The answer: automation, delegation & systemization. At the end of the day, you and I can't do it all. It's nearly impossible to succeed alone. We need help - whether that is is from other people or computers o...

Why is fear real? Why does it continue to exist? Besides the fact that is is hard-wired into us as human beings...it is because we continually indulge the conversation of fear in our minds on a constant basis.  If you find yourself consistently being unable to take action, do the things you need to do, say what you need to say, etc....you are just stuck behind this conversation of fear. You're bel...

2020 is officially gone and 2021 is here! But is that really a good thing? Does that make a difference? Let’s talk about resetting your mindset, purging yourself of toxic thoughts and gaining a new perspective on everything in the coming year.

All too often, we circle between the highs and lows of our lives, one day thinking we are on top of the world and the next day thinking we aren't worthy or capable of anything worthwhile. I used to think this was a weird phenomenon in my own life, but I'm starting to see this is much more common than I previously thought. As entrepreneurs, creators and business people, we are constantly bombarded...

Meet Celeste Johnson - a wife, mother, runner and great person! I had such a great conversation with Celeste and we talked more about running than anyone I've ever had on the show. She definitely shared some great nuggets in this show, such as: It's ok to start running on a treadmill Venturing out can be a little bit scary Take care of your body! When in doubt, commit! And much more If you'd like...

No matter what you do, no matter what you're trying to accomplish, almost everything in life takes longer, requires more effort, more money and focus to accomplish than you originally planned. It's a simple fact of life. Even the small tasks of your daily commute or doing the dishes, if you think about it, usually take longer than you originally anticipated. But that is ok! Friction in life create...

In staying consistent with the theme of this show, "Run Your Day" - let's all agree that you can't possibly be "running your day" when you're stuck on social media all day every day. It just isn't productive, it's a time-suck and it doesn't give you what you want. The crazy part is that every social network and app out there is literally designed with addiction and constant attention in mind, so i...

I believe that the single-biggest thing holding many of us back in life is our willingness to get uncomfortable and just go for things.  Don't be "that guy" who is all talk and no action. I see you. I know you. I WAS YOU. I STILL AM YOU. We all do it - we all stay comfortable for one reason or another. And it slowly and surely kills us. So today - just go for it. Just launch - like I did, when I w...

In the midst of a presidential election in uncertainty, we can extract a great lesson from this. Every election is essentially a "referendum" on the incumbent - do you want more of the same or change? It truly can be that simple. So inside of your life, if you were to do a "self-referendum" on the various areas of your life, would you vote for more of the same or would you vote for change? Would y...

The more things you do in life, the more you have what I call "split-attention" syndrome, which is a killer in the world of productivity. You try to do too much, then end up not doing enough, then feel guilty and unaccomplished, then anxiety builds and you feel further behind and you fall further and further behind. It's a viscious spiral. So how do we escape that? Try meditating on a single quest...

Do you have what it takes to make your dreams a reality? Put simply: are you willing to keep going through adversity and do what it takes, for as long as it takes until you reach your goal? There's no getting around things, skirting things or taking the shortcut. The work is the work and that is the way it is. Question: Where in your life do you know that there is simply a level of things you need...

Here's the deal: If you're going to start a business or try and do some big shit in life, there is A LOT of boring work involved in that journey. It's just part of it. The media we consume portrays this sexy and care-free image of entrepreneurs and big businesses, but it's not real. What you don't see is the boring, monotonous, tedium involved in the actual real work of starting and building these...

Each one of us has a whole bunch of "unconscious" directions, patterns and behaviors that we follow throughout the day. It might be your commute to work, your morning routine, tasks at work, the way you answer the phone, etc. Many of these patterns are harmless, but some can cause you to go in an entirely different direction throughout your life. The best part about realizing what your unconscious...

Just because someone says you should work out in the morning doesn't mean you should do that. Maybe you are more productive in the afternoon, evening or late-night. Do what fits your personality, your skills and your routines. Don't try to do something someone else can do just because that is how they do it. Be yourself and recognize where your individual strengths are. Question: Where in your lif...

When I say "system" I mean an area of your life. If you take a good look around at one area of your life that might not be working the way you want it to, it might be because you don't have a high level of systemization there. Example: You want to work out and keep losing weight, but you keep falling off the wagon and quitting on yourself. Why? Because you don't have systems in your life to stay o...

There is a problem many of us face without even realize it: We are constantly trying to get back to whatever the status quo was before a change happened in our life.  Think about it:  You're going along living your life and doing your thing A "trigger" event happens and throws you into a different course or direction You then spend your energy and effort trying to return to the place from which yo...

Just as the Bible says, "...to everything there is a time and a place under Heaven..."  This is incredibly true and relevant in today's world. Why are we experiencing a pandemic RIGHT NOW? Why are we experiencing racial and social justice activism RIGHT NOW?  You may not understand exactly why something is happening in the world or in your life right now, but there will eventually come a time when...

What comes to mind when you think about the word "risk?" Bad things, death, being broke, leaping off a mountain? Risk means something a little bit different to us all, but inside of a business & life sense it usually means doing something with both a potential upside and downside. You might end up better or worse because of an action or decision or thing you're doing. So how do you deal with a...

Do you tell yourself affirmations? Is what you're telling yourself actually true or is it a lie? Many people use affirmations in their life to affirm truths to themselves or create something different in their life. The problem is that sometimes those affirmations can be blatent lies. Example: If you tell yourself every single morning, "I'm a multi-millionaire" and yet you make $40,000/year in a j...

Did you know that "running your day" is actually easy? Weird, right? The only catch is that it's easy once you aren't being held back by anything. Imagine you were running a marathon with 150 pounds strapped to your back. That would make things much more difficult, right? Now - imagine that you shed that 150 pounds on mile 13-14. Do you think it would make the rest of the race easier, even though...

There are two types of lenses you can view each opportunity that comes to you in your life: Excitement & possibility Obstacle & imposter syndrome A lot of this has to do with our self-identity and how we see ourselves. For example: if you can only lift 100 pounds in the gym, your mind sees yourself as "the 100-pound" person. So if you try to lift 150, there might be an initial freak-out mo...
