Oh I love the word “practice”. And how easy it is to forget that there can be no mastery without relentless, consistent and brave-hearted practice (especially on the days when you don’t feel like practicing). Success is no accident (big idea). I met a reader once who grew up with Steve Nash. He shared that Nash was always first on the court and last off. And while on the practice court, he’d sometimes push himself so hard physically that he’d throw up. I’d never recommend extremes (you know t...

Oh, the struggle... ...we struggle for our dreams and to insulate our hopes against the criticism of naysayers. ...we struggle to advance in the direction of the values we hold dear in a cold world where many have closed their hearts. Yet there's nothing more heartbreaking than reaching the end of your life and realizing you've betrayed yourself. It doesn’t matter what other people think of you. All that matters is what you think of you. We lose so much energy worrying about the opinions...

The opinions of others are just the opinions of others. Don’t let them dissolve your dreams. If unprepared, the stone-throwing of the critics and cynics can take you down. The reality is that the very nature of being a visionary and world-changer during dark days means you’ll attract ridicule, jealousy and condemnation. The more you own your power and develop the exceptional confidence that comes with making your fantasies real, the bigger your dreams will get. And when that happens, even...

"I hated every minute of training. But I said 'Don’t quit. Suffer now. And spend the rest of your life as a champion.'” - heavyweight boxing icon Muhammad Ali It’s so easy to be hypnotized by society into thinking that the superstars among us woke up one day rejoicing in their newfound heightened state of greatness. Pure myth. Study Da Vinci and Buffet, Beethoven and Serena Williams, Kobe and Nikola Tesla and you’ll see that their unusually excellent performance was caused by their uncommo...

One of the primary reasons that people and organizations fail to get to greatness is that they try to be too many things to too many people. I’ll use the Confucius quote I often use here: “Man who chases two rabbits catches neither.” The most successful human beings are wildly focused. They have a very clear picture of what it is they want to create by the time they reach the end of their lives and then they have the discipline (and courage) to stick to their knitting – saying “no” to everyt...
