Without commitment you’ll never start, but more importantly, without consistency you’ll never finish.

Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy.

Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle.” ~Napoleon Hill
1. Struggle is better for performance … eventually.
Research shows that people who struggle with a problem on their own before receiving assistance actually perform better than people who haven’t had to struggle — on the second time they encounter a problem.
2. Struggle is a cruel teacher, but a good one.
People learn more when they struggle. You probably hate this as much as I do, but it’s true.
As a career change coach, I most often see people struggling at frustration level when they’re in a new position of leadership, have made a career pivot to a new industry, or are making the shift from traditional corporate work to entrepreneurship. There’s a huge learning curve, and hence often huge initial frustration, in all of those scenarios.
3. Struggle makes you less resistant to trying something new.
The frustration we feel when we struggle with something makes us more open-minded about alternative solutions. Why? Struggle is a form of feedback that says what you’re doing now isn’t working.
Spinning your wheels with a problem and realizing that your attempts to solve it aren’t working forces you to try things you probably wouldn’t try if things were sailing along smoothly. Maybe even things you’ve thought of trying before but didn’t want to.

“There are a lot of things that are beyond our control but what you do have control over is how you react to whatever happens in your life.” ~Oprah Winfrey
Your GOAL needs to be motivating, which means, it’s something you really want or really want to avoid. A worthy GOAL is a thing that is difficult to get but you are willing to work very hard for it because you sincerely want it bad enough. You can trigger your enthusiasm by thinking about what it will be like once you obtain your goal. Coordinate & use that enthusiasm to fuel the energy you put into working for your goal.
Your PLAN is the roadmap that puts you in better position to reach your goal. Your PLAN states your OBJECTIVES, WORK & timeframe. It helps you stay efficiently on track, avoiding the pitfalls that prevent your success. It organizes the actions you take in incremental steps so you can calculate the time need to complete your goal. For example: Decide how much time for each objective [5 , 10 or 15 minutes], how frequently to repeat [everyday, 4 times per wk or twice a week] and then estimate, based on the goal, how long it will take to achieve the goal.
Your OBJECTIVES are the actions you repeat on a regular schedule that stack up to move you to your goal. Each OBJECTIVE shrinks the work of the goal into manageable steps that you can achieve. You are more likely to achieve your goal when you focus on doing a great job at these smaller steps instead of overlooking their importance since they are easier & more abundant.
Your WORK is best thought of as supervising the goal. There are four parts: double-checking, scheduling, reminding & reviewing. Double-Checking is the HOW – making sure the quality of your execution is done well & correctly. Scheduling is the WHEN – setting up times to take action. Reminding is the WHAT – to make sure you take it seriously at the time scheduled. Reviewing is the WHERE – to confirm things are on track & problem solve for things that are off track. The WORK is the glue that makes your goal system effective.
Thank you!

“There will ALWAYS be an excuse not to do the things you need to do. Particularly, the things that scare you.” ~Mel Robbins
One of my goals for the beginning of this year was to get into a good morning routine in order to set myself up for the day. It started whenever I read “The Miracle Morning” by Hal Elrod in January. I knew that not having a good morning routine and feeling overwhelmed and disorganized were connected.
I needed to work smarter, not harder, and the first step was to create good habits.
The first thing I needed to do was quit the belief that I was a “night owl.”
Over the past several months I have been working on “habit stacking” to craft myself a good morning routine that works for me. Habit Stacking is a way to build a new habit into your life by stacking it on top of something you’re currently doing. For example, before I brush my teeth in the morning (current habit) I will meditate (new habit) for three minutes. I’ve discovered the personal ritual I have set up for myself has helped put me in the right mindset and offset any morning procrastination.

Ask yourself:
Are you a leader?
Are you a follower?
Here’s the thing: You do NOT have to be a leader to be great. Greatness is essential for both leaders and followers.
How can you achieve greatness with everything you do? Can you be a great follower? A great leader?
What if there was a formula to create greatness . . . in anyone?

J.K. Rowling always knew she was going to be a writer. According to her website, “As soon as I knew what writers were, I wanted to be one.” But it took more than wishful thinking. She started writing the Harry Potter series during a delayed train ride from Manchester to London. Rowling envisioned all of the characters and the story started to take shape. She spent the next five years outlining the plots for each book and wrote down the names and magical powers of every single character. It’s that attention to detail that make the stories so great.

“Be careful with your words, once they are said, they can only be forgiven, not forgotten. ” ~Carl Sandburg
The art of communication is not mastered by just knowing what to say and how to say it.
A big factor is knowing when to say it. So often people sit back and say nothing when something really needs to be said. It could be an idea, a suggestion, an observation, a criticism…but for some reason they don’t want to speak up.
They may be afraid of hurting another person, looking mean or foolish, or opening a can of worms that will make a mess in everyone’s lives. Sometimes it seems like staying silent is the wiser choice. But here are five reasons why despite the risk, standing up and saying your peace is best…
