Gratitude

A simple thank you goes a long way...

“A hundred times every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life is based on the labors of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving.”

– Albert Einstein

3. Grow your network: Register for 1 event or conference in the next 90 days.

4. Show up daily: Post 1x per day on LinkedIn.

Integrity isn’t optional.

Warren Buffet says:
You’re only looking for 3 qualities:
Enthusiasm: The drive and energy to make things happen
Intelligence: The ability to learn, think, and solve problems.
Integrity: Doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.

If they don’t have the third one the first two are very malicious.

3 Steps to Get Unstuck and Think BIG!

1. Mindset: Stop chasing solutions. Get obsessed with the problem.
2. Exercise: Write down your 3 biggest pain points. Brutal honesty only. (This is where most people quit, don't.)
3. Action: Start with #1. One solution. Do something about it before midnight.
Repeat. Every day.
