There Is No “I” in Team, but There Is “Me”

ALL HAIL KING JOHN

As you guys know, I spent the weekend with my good friend/mentor/coach/great guy Dr. Nima Rahmany. One of the things I took away from the weekend was the power of feeling into your affirmations. Regular viewers know I gave advice similar to this in Daily Genius 65, and I’m going to keep repeating myself because […]

Stop Letting People Waste Your Time

How much time are you wasting because you can’t say “no?” Chances are, unless you’ve got a hierarchy of pre-vetted business priorities, that number is higher than you think. If you don’t know for certain you’re working on the highest-priority item you possibly can be, you’re not going to tell your team you’ll get back […]

Short Term Pain Mitigation
