I want to be a buffalo in everything I do.  None of us are perfect and it’s easy to slip into a cow mentality in all of our lives but the sooner we can say “I’m going down the wrong path”, or, “I have no path”, that’s when we need to take a moment and switch directions.

It’s been said many of times will power doesn’t work, you have to change the way you think and I believe my friend’s morning encouragement and nightly review is as simple as it gets to put the odds in my favor of having an amazing day.  Have enough amazing days and you end up with an amazing life! 

When I take a chill pill (not literally although I know they exist), and start looking at what I can control, I gain clarity, fear goes away, concerns go away, anxiety drops, and head space improves.  So focus on what I can control.

5 words: Clarity, Priority, Belief, Tactics, Accountability. Those 5 words are the foundation to my business…

Behave like you have a stake in it…

“I just want to tell you, in our system it says that you’re really nice, and I just wanted to say that I agree, you are”.

The simplicity of being useful blocks out the fun house distortion of questioning our value/worth/importance.

No wall flowering at the Marckwardt’s. If we’re going to do something, make it count and know why we’re doing it.

Great moments are created when we don’t feel like saying yes, but know we should, and actually say “yes”.
