If you want to change how you look at time, break it down. A lifetime is inconcievable for a human being, a year seems like a long time, and a week (especially when we’re waiting for something) can feel as long as that year. We don’t get to decide what happens tomorrow. You can plan, but plans change in an instant,...
I’m Dying. There, I said it. Now you know. Now you are in on the big secret. Here’s the thing: you are too. “But Josh, I’m not dying!!” Maybe not tomorrow, or in a month, or a year, or even 10 years. But, one fact remains: each and every day, you are one step closer to your physical existence ending. Does that make...
So many people today are building sandcastles that will be swept away the minute that another person decides that they aren’t beautiful. What I mean by this is perfectly demonstrated by building a following on social media platforms (or platforms) that you do not own, control, or have a say in the direction of the...
“You may never walk again.” I remember those words like they were yesterday. Your life can change in an instant, and I am the poster child for that. As a 20 year old kid, life in a wheelchair is something that never crosses your mind. But, that was my reality on November 9, 2013. After falling from a cliff while...
How to Start Your Own Podcast# There is pretty much nothing that I have done in my life that has helped my own personal growth and relationships as much as starting a podcast. Not only is it a creative outlet, it’s a way to meet awesome people, build friendships, and create a personal brand around what you are...
A shorter post today, but the concept is not to be taken lightly. I am presenting you with the key in making amazing gains, all by getting only a slight bit better each day at whatever it is you are pursuing. I’ve made a post about Kaizen and consistency before, but this one includes a little mathematics that are...

The Way we Are# The alarm goes off in the morning, we turn to it, hit snooze, and fall back asleep. It’s far easier to eat that doughnut on the way to work than to get up 15 minutes earlier to make a healthy breakfast. You’ll go to the gym tomorrow. There are clients waiting for your phone call, but it’s much easier...
It is apparent to me that truth almost always falls somewhere between the extremes. When there is emotional arguments from either side, the reality is that of the centrist. The rational observer, the thinker and the doer. When we are told X or Z, the truth probably falls around Y. But, it takes much fortitude and...
You can be your own Hero We wait for salvation. We wait for that person to come and save us from the plight that we have gotten ourselves into. Time and time again, we hope for miracles. Looking outside ourselves for the answers to all of our problems. When this doesn’t work, we think that moving to a new place, or...
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then is not an act but a habit.— Will Durant A quote often wrongly attributed to Aristotle, this quote is exemplary of this article’s focus. In Ray Dalio’s Principles (which I recommend you read on Audible, as it’s narrated by the man himself), one of the largest things that...
