Who we are is bigger than what we do. We are all of us fathers, friends, and sons. Invest in the best parts of yourself that are still there when the job is not.

Life brings frustrations and disappointments. People will let you down, and it’ll make you angry. But in those moments, we have a choice: create or destroy connection. Choose curiosity, not reaction. Every frustration is an opportunity to grow.

Don’t rush into New Year goals without asking why you want them. Focus on what matters, not what you think you ‘should’ chase.

Ready. Aim. Then fire. 🎯

NOT

Fire. Aim? Ready?

Life doesn't respond to things you think. You can think all you'd like about change, but if the person you've decided to be is not aligned with the change you want to make, then you won't change.

Like cowards we run away from ourselves into inebriation, ignoring that numbing our discomfort also numbs our joy. We live sedated, distant, watching our own lives pass by. #mensmentalhealth

Relationships that are not your priority will degrade. The things that matter more than the relationship will receive your attention.

The investments you make in growing will be focused more on meeting the opportunities outside the relationship rather than the needs within it.

Honesty is not the absence of lies. It is the presence of truth. Healthy people speak truth into situations that lack it. Without abuse. Without judgment. They are direct and unambiguous. Most importantly, they are all these things in situations where the truth is uncomfortable.

My life changed for the better when I became more concerned with the quality of my relationships than with my perception of my image. Not only did my life get better, but my organization's results got better. Everything is better when you are genuinely close to people.
