The best influencers (and elite athletes, artists and inventors) are boring. They are all about Mundanity: repeating the same few habits every single day (whether they feel like performing them or not) until these consistent practices incrementally morph into a tsunami of victory. Success lies in a masterful consistency around the fundamentals (please read that thrice). Don’t complicate things. Just repeat a few routines staggeringly well. My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full...

Peak creativity occurs by relaxing into the two main seasons of high-productivity. If you’re serious about becoming a virtuoso, balance periods of being in the world with periods in the wilderness of isolation, contemplation, reflection and renewal. Such times are not a waste. Actually, it’s essential to the incubation of the next-level insights that will cause you to own your game.

I’ve never subscribed to the “hustle and grind” philosophy that makes us feel guilty if we’re not working 24/7/365 and though I’ve done my best to inspire my readers and clients to aim for legendary and do their masterwork I’ve also taught that time for rest, regeneration and doing nothing is also profoundly important. Having said this, work matters. And working hard is wise. Work gives us deep meaning (if we make the time to look for it), frees us from boredom and keeps us younger. Yo...

To have the weight of the world on your shoulders and the stress of excellent opportunities and the livelihoods of many (or a few) within your responsibility isn’t easy. Yet it truly is a gift. You wouldn’t have this pressure if you didn’t also have the associated talent to handle it. Victims face tough times and grow smaller.

As we advance through a lifetime, it’s ever so easy to harden our attitudes and calcify our mindsets. We begin to fall in love with our closely cherished truths and believe that the way we see things is the way things are. Thinking the way you see the world is the way the world (or business, society or life) actually is is super dangerous. “Why Robin?” you wonder. …because you’ll stop listening to new ideas. …because you’ll lose your gift of humility. …because you’ll be defendin...

Yes, perfectionism isn’t healthy. Got you on that point. Yet, here’s the reality based on my over 30 years in the trenches with famous CEOs, billionaires, NBA superstars and music icons: the great ones are all obsessive. They cannot bear being mediocre. They cannot live with stagnating at ordinary. They have uncontainable hunger to exploit their potential, bring on mastery and turn their entire field on its head. My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original...
