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 […]

ALL HAIL KING JOHN

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 […]

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 […]

Clear Desk, Clear Mind

Clear Desk, Clear Mind

Take a second right now. Look at your desk. I bet you’ve got things all over it. Ask yourself this question: which of those things on your desk is the thing you’re working on right now? Can you find it immediately? Is that thing the most important thing you can be doing right now? If […]

COMPANIES ONLY WORK IN CONTEXT

COMPANIES ONLY WORK IN CONTEXT

No matter how big or small your organization is, it’s going to have problems if everyone isn’t on the same page. And with people being people, persistence, patience, and love are necessary ingredients if you want to get anywhere close. As a business owner, you ESPECIALLY need to be patient, even when your employees aren’t. […]

Dream Management

Perhaps you feel that you aren’t going to be able to achieve your dreams. You’re stuck. There’s a glass ceiling. And you’re sure there’s one big thing that you can fix to change your life to make everything better. Probably not. You’re addicted. The one big thing is never going to happen. This is a […]

Everyone Wants a Piece of My Pie

Everyone Wants a Piece of My Pie

An advantage of owning a small business is that we can quickly transform when we want to and we’re nimble enough to keep sprinting while we do it. Of course, one of the disadvantages of that is that sometimes things change so quickly that not everyone on our team knows what’s going on… …and where […]

FUCKED IF I DO, FUCKED IF I DON’T

FUCKED IF I DO, FUCKED IF I DON’T

I was a bit stressed this morning. But, rather than mope around, I used it. I’ve said this before, but if I’m upset about something, that means there’s an area of my business that I can improve. I’m not perfect, and I don’t run a perfect business, but that means there’s always things that can […]

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 […]
