Commitment. Your 100% commitment only happens when you weigh in, discuss, debate, and challenge ideas, issues, and opportunities in an unfiltered way. If you withhold, even a little, (like choosing to “pick your battles” or conserve your energy for a better time), you can’t be in 100%. One of the best results from healthy discussion and debate is that when every member of a team fully weighs in,…
Do you push yourself? Most of us don’t. I know I don’t. At least not in the domains that are challenging for me. This is why my clients who have graduated from EOS continue to have me facilitate sessions. Or they do a tune up once a year to ensure they don’t veer too far from the work we’ve done and the investment we’ve made. I often feel like I don’t provide as much value as I do…
Sometimes you just know. In fact, when you’re attuned in life, it’s most often the case. Therein lies the problem. A majority of the time, most of us are not dialed in enough to access the messages from our intuition, let alone to trust our gut. This is why we rely on our heads and the clutter between our ears, when we could be accessing an inner knowing always available…
What happens when you have something important, pressing, vital, or interesting you are eager to share with someone and they don’t really pay attention? Even worse, what happens when they hear you, play along, and seem to be with you, but they’re not? You know the drill, when someone is there, making eye contact, seemingly interested but when you reference the subject later, they really didn’t listen? Actively,…
How do you define success? We all measure it differently. Some say it’s completing something, and you’d sign up to do it again. Others measure in money, material wealth, possessions, and stuff. Others measure by the accolades and awards they collect, and some measure relationships. How many and the quality are up to the person. Still others measure in the goals accomplished, the number of things they conquered or the competitions or…
Complacency. It’s something that happens when you begin to accept the results you have as all that is possible. It’s the benchmark of mediocrity and the crusher of dreams. Many teams become complacent with scorecard numbers and rocks over time. They begin to see the red numbers or hear the words “off track” week after week and resign themselves rather than dig in to discover what’s causing…
It’s hard to write right now. Not because I don’t have words—but because words feel thin compared to the weight of this moment. 2025 was, without question, one of the hardest years of my life. And I’ve lived through plenty. Health challenges hit from multiple directions and didn’t let up. Clients I care deeply about were navigating their own storms. It felt relentless. So, when we turned the page to 2026, I…
When you have a challenging message to deliver, a sensitive conversation to have, a crucial conversation waiting to happen, it’s better to ask yourself how much trust you have in the relationship than plan the right words to say. If trust is high, you can use the wrong words, muck up the details, and basically enter into it unprepared because you are afforded the…
I’ll be honest with you – I’ve pursued perfectionism too often, and it’s typically not a pretty story. I’ve been on a relentless quest for perfection more times than I’d like to admit. It’s what makes me a firm believer in prioritizing completion over perfection and part of the driving force behind our book Chasing Perfection – Shatter the Illusion; Minimize Self-Doubt & Maximize Success. You see, perfectionism often drags us into a never-ending cycle of edits and…
Extending grace offers new pathways. When you can remain curious during challenging times, keeping an open mind and an open heart, a new space for trust emerges. The world is not either/or. The mindset necessary to traverse great divides in opinion, perspective, and beliefs is a tricky balance of suspending what you believe long enough to consider an alternate point of view. Are you…
