There is no chance of you bringing your dreams to life rolling ‘solo’ or surrounding yourself with energy vampires who tell you to “play it safe” —who are triggered by your growth.

Here’s the deal:

Most people want to see you grow —until a certain point:

Until your growth is a reflection of their drifting.
Until your growth is a reflection of their wandering.
Until your growth is a reflection of their being stuck.

And then, almost as a subconscious tick —they’ll start to tell you:

“It’s risky to go out on your own.”
“Are you sure that makes sense?”
“You should be realistic right now.”

And they enable your excuses to ensure you stay the same so they feel a little better about themselves.

(This isn’t a character flaw per say, this is human nature.)

Instead, surround yourself with real friends who hold you to excellence —and compel you to dig deeper.

In today's Quick Hit, I'll share 3 ways to level up your tribe for your ultimate success.

This coming week is going to be the best one of your entire year, right?

Here's the deal:

Aiming at nothing equals distraction.
Aiming at nothing equals comparison.
Aiming at nothing equals randomness.

When I talk to people who are “stuck” or not making progress—I always ask:

What does winning the week look like?

There’s zero clarity.
There’s zero specifics.
There’s zero commitment.
There’s zero focused work.

I’ve been there too:

I’d spend nine hour a week on fantasy football while setting the record for Bank of America overdrafts…7 according to Karl.

So, what’s a better way to create the best week of your year?

In this Quick Hit, you'll discover the 7 ways to ensure you have an incredible week.

Having a million dollars in your checking account will make you happy, right?

Not quite —unless you've done the inner work of fulfillment, letting go of the past and loving who you are.

Which is why we can acquire the corner office, the $250,000 salary and even the dream relationship:

And still feel off and like something is missing.

As you know on the Academy —we define success as the unison of high performance and achievement with deep fulfillment and inner peace.

Enter today's guest, John Roa.

John Roa is a lifelong entrepreneur, technologist, philanthropist, business investor, and writer. He has founded and managed six technology companies since learning to program at age 11.

Isn't that what we're here for?

We’re constantly told narratives around money that often hold us back from:

  • Desiring more money.
    Desiring more wealth.
    Desiring more options.

And when I work with people —I help them own their desire for more money:

  • Without apology.
  • Without justifying.
  • Without guilt or shame.

Why?

Because money is a tool that gives us options, freedom and the ability to amplify who and what we already are:

  • If you’re a self-absorbed narcissist who accumulates wealth —you’ll be more of the same.
  • If you’re a heart-driven, kind person who accumulates wealth —you’ll be more of the same.

On this Quick Hit #162 —I'll share why you're not making more money and what to do about it.

To the degree that you're willing to put yourself on the line, seek rejection —is to the degree you can expect to see results in your life.

In today's Quick Hit, I'm going to cover why rejection is not something to avoid, and in fact:

  • Rejection creates clarity
  • Rejection creates growth
  • Rejection creates results

And if you're not experiencing rejection on the regular —you're likely not going hard enough.

This is the worst time in history to have no aim.
This is the worst time in history to have no focus.
This is the worst time in history to have no goals.

Why?

Because when you and I don’t fill our time, energy and space with what matters:

We fill it with random noise.
We fill it with Twitter gossip.
We fill it with fantasy football.

Or worst of all we succumb to political garbage, YouTube conspiracies —and social media trolls.

Let me blunt here:

If you have nothing to aim for, nothing to strive for, nothing that wakes you up with a pulse:

You’re one step from a life, unlived —the pain of untapped potential.

So, what’s a better way?

In this Quick Hit #160 —I'll share how to ensure you don't fall for this common issue during these times and ensure you're making the progress you're here for.
