Future Accounting

Future Accounting

Your goals in life won’t come true unless you’re accountable to them in advance. See … that future you say you want? You’re disowning it. It’s a trick. Just by your nature of wanting it, you’re acknowledging that you don’t have ownership of it. You haven’t found evidence of it. You don’t see where you […]

THERE ARE ALWAYS ROCKS

THERE ARE ALWAYS ROCKS

You can always do things better. That isn’t to say that nothing is ever good enough, but it is important to be able to look at anything you’ve done or anything you’re doing and identify how it can be done better. One of the ways we do that at Measurable Genius is by identifying rocks. […]

Showing Up

Showing Up

How do you show up in your life? Do you care? Does it mean anything to you? Are you doing something about it? Are you giving yourself permission? Are you willing to be who you are?

Guilty Consciences

Guilty Consciences

You guys all know how much I respect the teachings of my mentor Dr John Demartini​. Well, I got a great opportunity today to chat with Warren​ who asked me about the nature of guilt. Spoiler alert: Do the work to find out the benefits of whatever it is you’re feeling guilty about. It’s there. […]

Hiring is a Favour

Hiring is a Favour

Firing someone is one of the most difficult things a business owner can do. And that’s perfectly understandable. There’s a lot of emotion wrapped up in it. Having said that, it is an absolutely necessary activity for a business owner. And the better you get at it, the better your organization will be. Why? Because […]

Level up Your Leadership

Where would you rank amongst the greatest generals of history? Are you a Napoleon or are you more of a Custer? See, both military commanders and business owners have one thing in common: they need to be able to lead their team to victory. Whether that’s towards quarterly growth or conquering most of Europe, well, […]

Becoming Jordan Peterson

Becoming Jordan Peterson

Don’t be a business owner trying to take accountability and ownership of other people’s stuff … their problems; causes; tirades. Put your own room in order first. Don’t go out into the world and assume ownership of other people’s stuff. When you martyr yourself on these causes you clearly can’t make a difference on, you […]

ALEXANDER FORD, OUR PATRIARCH

ALEXANDER FORD, OUR PATRIARCH

As a business leader, you have the tendency to collect accountabilities. If it’s unclear who’s in charge of anything, it defaults to you as the leader. Over time, as your business grows and scales, that’s a lot of little accountabilities for one person to have. Often, it becomes impossible for one person to keep all […]

Punctuated Progress

Punctuated Progress

I really believe in the power of incremental progress. It’s one of my company values. It’s the name of my weekly show (Wednesdays at 11:45 am Mountain Time on Facebook). It’s how we find evidence that we’re fulfilling our dreams. However, there are times a whole bunch of incremental progress in different areas will come […]

Get a Daily Success Metric

Get a Daily Success Metric

Everyone (me included) wants to be able to know they did a good job. How do you get there? How can you know for certain, when you lay your head down to sleep at night, that you had a “successful” day? The answer to me is in measurement. You need to find something you can […]
