When you know WHY you’re doing something, it’s much easier to stick with and follow through on. Think back to the subjects in school that you hate, most likely you can’t see any reason WHY you should do it, or WHY you would ever need to use it in life (trigonometry). But when you can see the WHY, like knowing that workouts translate directly to results and success on the playing field, it’s much easier to stick with it through the ...

One of the biggest “Keys to Life” I know of is learning how to say “NO”. One trait of IMPACTFUL people is that they want to make a difference whenever, wherever, and however they can. Too often the thing that goes along with this is the propensity to say “yes” to every opportunity that comes up. Always remember, that saying yes to one thing, is saying no to something else. And that something else may just be the thing you SHOULD be...

“Life is like a game of chess. To win you have to make a move. Knowing which move to make comes with ...

Key to Life: Don’t Be the Smartest Person in the Room

While it’s great for your confidence (and your ego!) to be the smartest person in the room, it also tends to stagnate your learning. Because when you’re the smartest person in the room, what more is there to learn there?

I think it’s important to ...

Here's the confession: I've really, really struggled with burnout! And it wasn't until a month or so ago that it clicked!

Your personal motivation at any age is an enduring source of focus, energy, and meaning. God gave you agency and expects you to use it for good, and not spend your life mostly in distraction/entertainment/going with the flow.

Today's "Key to Winning at Life" comes from Melissa White.

One of the things that helps me to win at life is cleaning as I go and keeping things organized. When my house gets messy and things aren’t where they are supposed to be, it throws everything off and takes so much longer to finish a project. Like when I am cooking in the kitchen I like to clean up as I go so there isn’t such a large overwhelming mess at the end...
