"Shutdown Complete!" for the Target Swipe Win   Steven Pressfield is one of my all-time favorite writers.   In addition to being a brilliant writer of both fiction and non-fiction, he's a good human being. You can feel his wisdom and humility and realness with every word he writes.   We've featured SIX of his brilliant books on the creative process including: The War of Art , Do the Work , Turning...

If All You Did Today Was This…   In our last couple +1s , we talked about my Top 3 Work targets and then we talked about my #1 Target: "Recommitting to my Sacred Vow."     As you may recall, these are my Top 3 Heroic Work Targets:   I. Recommit to Sacred Vow (101 | 1M | 51 2051) II. #1 WIN III. Shut-down Complete   Which begs the question…   What are YOUR Top 3 Work Targets?   I. _________________...

The Foundation for Greatness   In our last +1 , I shared my Sacred Vow with you.   Then I encouraged YOU to consider creating your own Sacred Vow.   Today I want to continue that discussion.   We'll invite Daisaku Ikeda to the party. He is the leader of Nichiren Buddhism and one of the most respected Buddhist philosophers alive whose work has inspired millions around the world.   In Buddhism Day b...

Here's Mine… What's YOURS?   In our last +1 , we talked about my Top 3 Work Targets as I encouraged you to get clarity on and then commit to and hit YOUR top 3 targets.    These are my Top 3 Work Targets:   I. Recommit to Sacred Vow (101 | 1M | 51 2051) II. #1 WIN III. Shutdown Complete   What are YOUR Top 3 Work Targets?   I. ______________________ II. _____________________ III. _________________...

What Are YOURS?   Not too long ago, we talked about my Top 3 Energy Targets .    As you may recall, I said that it's really hard to have a series of really bad days when I hit my Top 3 Energy Targets.    These are my Top 3 Energy Targets:   I. In Bed for 9-10 Hours II. AM Meditation (1%) III. Movement (30 Min)   (What are YOURS?)   Today I want to chat about my Top 3 Work Targets.    Here they are...

13.8 Billion Years Ago to NOW   In our last couple +1s , we talked about the Sun and the next-closest star, appropriately named Proxima Centauri.    We did some quick math and realized that the Universe is insanely vast (yes, that's the technical description) and that 99.999% of the Universe consists of… ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.   Imagining the ineffable VASTNESS of our Universe should help us get a li...

For 4.2 Years Just to Get to the Next Star   In our last +1 , we used the Sun as a trigger/prompt/cue to practice our philosophy and put the virtues of gratitude and humility and awe into action.    As you may recall, we reflected on the fact that the Sun is a STAGGERING 93 MILLION (!) miles away.    Somehow, its rays are so powerful that, even after taking 8 minutes and 20 seconds to arrive on pl...

93 Million Miles + 8 Minutes 20 Seconds   This morning I was on the Trail moving for 30 minutes.    I banged out my last couple sets of 11 burpees to hit my 101 for the day. I jumped up to hang from the tree branch that is my pull-up bar to hammer out my 11 pull-ups. I rowed my 1,000 meters to hit that Target.    Target swipe.   Target swipe.   Target swipe.   Target swipe.   Target swipe.     I k...

From Doing the Right Thing for the Win!   In our last few +1s , we've been talking about The Law of Cause and Effect .   We started with Michael Singer 's wisdom. Then we went old school with Jesus and Epictetus .    I promised we'd talk about what modern SCIENCE has to say about applying the basic ideas of The Law of Cause and Effect to the process of optimizing our lives.   That's what we'll do...
