If you want to clear your head (and create some confidence), here's a great way to kick off your weekend.
As we head into the weekend, it’s time for one of my favorite weekend hacks:
→ Make time to tackle something you’ve been avoiding.
It doesn’t have to be huge. It can be donating that box of junk in your garage, finally scheduling an appointment, or finishing up a task you’ve been avoiding at work…but I want you to identify one thing you’ve been avoiding, make some time in your schedule for it, and do it.
Remember, your actions reinforce your self-perception. If you keep avoiding things? You’re going to end up feeling lazy. If you tackle challenges head-on, however, you’re going to feel confident…and that confidence is power.
Not only does this turn into a cycle where you’re reinforcing who you believe you are, but it’s also an easy way to turn your weekend into a power channel - using it to fuel your confidence - and set yourself up for an epic week ahead.

Nothing is off limits if it helps you rise.
1. What are you doing this week to put yourself in the position to win?
2. Holding yourself and others to a high standard is a form of respect. It’s not about shutting people out, it’s about inviting them to step up to the bar - and committing to meet them there.
3. When it comes to peak performance, working hard is useful but rest is just as important. Don’t skip on the basics - get them in line and use them to sharpen your axe.
4. When you take a hit, it’s okay to feel it…but you need to assess the damage and refocus onward. Never mentally stay too long in places you don’t wish to live.
5. This is why I recommend ditching business books and picking up biographies instead. There’s a lot of wisdom to be pulled from other people’s journeys if you’re willing to study how they rise.
6. If you know you’re capable of more, then it’s time to take off the brakes.
So many people today fall for hustle culture and end up needlessly burning themselves out. Being busy is not the same as being productive. That's the whole premise of how we've structured our company to be able to deliver on 2-3 business day average. Meaningful work takes priority.
