My core life & business systems revolve around one program more than any other: Obsidian.md. I've gone into excruciating detail about why I love it so much, but this is focused on helping you see exactly how I use it to shape my habits (and rest of my life since your whole life is nothing […]
Last year I decided to upload one video a week, and so far I've made good on that promise to myself. Part of the fun is experimenting with what works / what doesn't work / what's fun to change up. Today's test? Trying out YouTube's Premiere function. Last night I uploaded the video & I […]
“Where can I see your show?!” ~Well-meaning people I meet socially. Unless they work at one of the companies that brings me in for their high-stakes events, there’s probably a near-zero chance they’ll get to see me do my thing. Enter the “Asheville Mind Reading Show.” I found a great venue where I can put […]
This week's "Frivolous Friday" message is focused on something that bugs me to no end. That's why it was so refreshing to see Van Neistat go bonkers with it this week. One of my friends said, "I don't disagree with this guy; but I feel like hes crazed and yelling at me." Yes! Exactly! Some […]

Because the ability to present your ideas to an audience is a super power. But most people would rather crawl […]
Today I was out in the world for four hours without an internet-connected device. I spent part of that time watching clouds that look like pillow stuffing take their time gliding through the NC mountain valleys and it felt quite zen. Quite the counterpoint to the two bits of good news I wanted to share […]
Math was probably my least favorite subject in school. At the same time, there was one area that everyone else had trouble with that was easy for me: word problems. When I could talk through the situation, everything made sense. Flash forward decades later and now I can use that advantage in my business life. […]
"Close rate just above 40% (highest on team). This just about doubled my paycheck. The coaching has helped shift my perspective a ton. Appreciate it and have a great weekend!" About 6 weeks ago I told you about the 6 week cohort training I was planning for my "Close Any Sale" system. That review is […]
First, welcome to the evening edition of the Recognized Genius. Things over here at headquarters have been pretty wild. As in I drove through the night to get back home just in time for the kiddo to wake up super sick yesterday, and then for her to pass that along to me today. Yay! And […]
