As I progress in the realm of entrepreneurship, I realize the dangers of setting high standards (at least at first). This is a type of perfectionist technique which may inhibit you from starting or progressing. If you listen to people around you talk about “what they really want to do” for a career or theirContinue reading “Don’t Set Too High of Standards”

Starting From The Bottom
Recently, I have thought about wanting to do a powerlifting meet again. I haven’t competed in 2.5 years and I am a little rusty at some of the movements. Shaun and I haven’t been focusing on powerlifting movements as much lately and have been doing some weightlifting mixed with bodybuilding exercises. Don’t worry, I willContinue reading “Starting From The Bottom”
We Are a Team
If you have listened to our most recent podcast (episode 56), you will hear all of the things we have accomplished this year as a couple. It is hard for me at times to think about accomplishments, because most of them feel like they were Shaun and not me. It may be different once weContinue reading “We Are a Team”
Financial Freedom
With selling my shares of Stable Living, I acquired most of the properties Ryan and I owned together. This turned out to be very beneficial for both of us. I am a huge proponent of passive income and that is exactly what I will receive by getting the properties. With all the rentals Sam andContinue reading “Financial Freedom”
Focusing On The Big Picture
My brother and I were talking today about feeling useless at work. The past week, him and I have been running around trying to keep the individuals we have working with us busy.

One of the things that we have noticed is that we judge other people before even talking to them or we care about things that don’t matter to us.Continue reading “Stay in Your Lane”
The Power of Job Coaches
For the past couple years, I wanted to get a mentor or a job coach. I have heard really great things about job coaches from friends who have them and I thought it would help progress me personally and in business. I kept my eyes open but did not search diligently for one. Then RyanContinue reading “The Power of Job Coaches”
Habit Tracker
Have you often thought you are accomplishing a lot? Your day seems so busy and it feels like you get a lot done throughout the day, then you sit down to write out exactly what you accomplished, and realize, it is not very impressive. I recently started using a habit tracker. I decided to useContinue reading “Habit Tracker”
The Month Of Preparation
In previous blogs, I have mentioned that there are a many things that I would like to get done by the beginning of the year. I hate the idea that you have to start new things on the first of the year. It is a good point of reference, but it just makes it soContinue reading “The Month Of Preparation”
Gratification
Shaun and I have talked many times about gratification. It doesn’t always have to mean receiving gratification from things, it can also mean appreciating everything around you. One thing that I have heard from many successful individuals is how everyday they write a list of things they are grateful for. I have toyed with thisContinue reading “Gratification”
