You can achieve anything if you believe. But that is not what we do. Instead of doing what we can do, we are after what we cannot do.

‘Exposure activates curiosity.’

We are trying to change what we cannot change. We are after what others are doing, not what we can do to make our lives better.

Whether you want to hear this or not, according to Micheal Burt, ‘Nothing can change until you cut away the things that keep you stuck.’

We can prevent regret by exploring our talents and spending time working harder to match those talents with the correct work for us.’

‘When people lose the urge to fight, you can watch their progress gradually decline.’

When you distribute your talents to the world to solve big problems or bring new opportunities to people, you make yourself eligible for bigger payouts from the world.’

‘What you want to avoid is being in an environment where you don’t have to perform and are allowed to just goof off’

‘Without an environment that causes you to perform at a higher level, you contract to a place of comfort.’

You need people in your life– such as a coach, leader, mentor, or manager- who expect something from you.’

‘When you connect to your activator, you exude confidence.’

When you’re in the room with people distributing their talents at the highest levels with top levels of commitment and dedication to their craft, you have no choice to put up or shut up.’

Don’t allow yourself to fall complacent into believing that where you are is as big as you will ever get. Train your mind to be open to new people, new experiences, and better ways of operating.’

With persistence, the passion for the goal must be present, and there must be a consistency that you cultivate that takes an action and converts it to a habit.’

You must have a desire to move from pretending to contending. You need to want to do something big in order to actually do something big. To make this happen, you must remove the low-value activities you currently spend your time participating in.’

How To Accelerate Growth

‘Business is a team sport! Everyone must up their skills and teamwork in order to achieve the future vision and goals!’

Role clarity is critical! No pro team would show up to a game without knowing their positions. If they did, it would look more like a free-for-all than professional play!’

‘The more psychological safety you generate, the more you can request people to perform outside their comfort zones. It requires courage to step up and take more ownership for delivering outcomes. That’s why they need safety!’

‘… being effective at leading innovation means that you have to master your ability to spend a lot of time in discomfort, and make it safe for your team to be in discomfort right alongside you.’

‘You must renegotiate if the outcome cannot be reached with the current plan.’

‘To have the culture you desire, you have to build good leadership habits!’

‘Recognizing when things go off track is key! You know you are off track when achieving the intended outcome isn’t possible without a significant change.’

Don’t offer anything you can’t or won’t actually do.’

‘Making clear, conscious, effective agreements is a foundational skill. It’s worth practicing to achieve mastery.’

Agreements are a process, not a promise. As situations change, so must the agreements. There is way too much change always happening in business to consider anything an unchangeable ‘promise.’

Delegation is a two-way process with mutual responsibility. When everyone involved is responsible to generate a good agreement, it takes the pressure off any one person to get it right.’
