525,600 Reasons Why Time Management Is Important for Success
There are 525,600 reasons why time management is important for success. Each one is unique in its own way… Every morning I wake up around 5:30 AM (depending on how many times I say, “Hey Siri, snooze.”). But no matter what, I’m up by 6 AM. I don’t say this to imply that I’m a […]
Want Success Now? Focus on the Critical Few. Avoid the Trivial Many.

What is One Percent Better? It’s an Exciting Lifestyle.
What is one percent better? What does that mean in practice? As I woke up this morning (after struggling with the warm blanket holding me down), I felt a burst of excitement. It’s been one week. One week of applying the one percent better mindset. It started with brushing my teeth. It grew to me […]
Want Success? Find a Growth Opportunity. Actually Have the Courage to Take It.

One of the keys to becoming one percent better every day can be summed up like this. Don’t break the chain. As we sit here our feet are literally barking. But they are barking together. Before I tell you about our fun (and tiring day), I want to tell you about the concept of not […]
Will Small Life Changes Lead to Big Results? Yes.
It’s about small, controllable life changes. It’s a balmy 45 degrees here in Las Vegas this morning. I can’t say I slept particularly well. I toss and turn quite a bit when traveling. Some of that I attribute to a new/different bed. The rest I attribute to my girth. I started an experiment a few […]
The Exciting Journey to One Percent Better Every Day Begins
One percent better every day. That’s the goal. Today is the day after my birthday in 2021. I am 45 years old. As Jimmy Buffett proclaims, “I’m growing older but not up.” To prove the point, I decided to celebrate – with my family – in the adult playground. Sin City. Las Vegas, Nevada. This […]
