My son turned 3 today.

Having a child has made me too aware of how little time I have left in this world.

Because no matter much how it is, it is not enough.

Professional boxer (14-1-1) | Stuck at 1800-ish chess rating | Keynote Speaker | Author of “Hard Lessons From The Hurt Business: Boxing And The Art of Life

The past 3 years of 

-Refining my speech
-Learning YouTube
-Writing my book

Have helped me refine my message, my story, and what my gift is to the world. A gift that pays and is "authentically aligned."

It's also given me great appreciation for life and made me grateful.

Money only solves your money problems.

It can't repair or build trust.
It can't make people love you.

It can't even solve your money problems IF character flaws cause them.

Get enough to live a stress-free life, but not so much that you create more stress.

Because remember: Some people are so poor that money is all they have.

Everything is simultaneously a big joke and deadly serious.

If this doesn't make sense, then you either play too much or not enough

There will be times when people want you to change your mind or opinion because it makes them uncomfortable. 

You might think about backtracking or changing your opinion, but you have to remember:

The moment they gave you the ultimatum to change, the relationship between two free-thinking people was over. 

Either you cave and resentment dissolves the friendship over time, or you resist and it ends immediately.

The best lies have a small grain of truth and are spread by people with just above-average intelligence.

They are smart enough to make a convincing argument, but not smart (or willing) enough to realize the holes in it.

And sadly, neither are most people, so they fall for it.

"The opposite of addiction isn't sobriety. It's connection."

If you do what everyone else has done, you'll get what everyone else has gotten...

For better or worse.

The *only* way to have a different outcome is to walk a different path, even if it only differs by infinitesimally small amount.

Eventually, you'll be in different completely different places...

For better or worse.

Man Morning Founder | Author of Stop Living on Autopilot | Global Leadership Speaker

Six months ago, I lost everything in a California wildfire.

Our home. Our community. Life as we knew it gone in hours.

I didn’t rebuild with a 10-year plan.

I rebuilt one powerful day at a time.

That process became The 1-Day Method™,  an operating system now helping people around the world reset, refuel, and take back control of their lives.

Today, I deliver hard-hitting leadership keynotes for global organizations like Google, VISA, Booking.com, Little Caesars, and Lincoln Financial.

I speak to high-performers who are done living on autopilot. The ones ready to lead, not just survive.

I’m the author of five books, including The 1-Day Method™ and the international bestseller Stop Living on Autopilot.

Before this chapter, I spent 10 years in New York City as an award-winning journalist for NBC, PBS, and MTV Networks telling stories that mattered.

That instinct still drives everything I do.

My work has been featured on NBC’s TODAY Show, FOX, Forbes, and The Art of Manliness, and I publish Man Morning, a top newsletter that's a weekly check-in for men who lead at work, at home, and in life.
