Experience the Experience

by Walt | Jan 30, 2020 | Success | 0 Comments

Do you experience the experiences of your life?

Or… are you just a spectator?

Or… worse yet… are you just missing out entirely?

(Danger lurks.)

With so much coming at you all of the time, with so many demands and distractions, it’s easy to lose the capacity to focus…

Only to lose connection with the moment… this one and only moment.

And… miss the moment.

The entirety of your life consists of a series of moments, the poet Emily Dickinson wrote. “Forever is composed of moments.”

You miss the moment at your peril; to your detriment.

Because as Annie Dillard writes, “What is important is the moment of opening a life and feeling it touch–with an electric hiss and cry–this speckled mineral sphere, our present world.”

The present is called the present because it’s a present… and really the only one we have.

Practice experiencing the experiences of your life.

Be in this moment.

There Is ONLY One Path

There is only one path to success. If you don’t follow that one path, you’re screwed.

Not.

Whether it’s building a business, launching a product or program, delivering a workshop or writing a book, there are many paths to the “right” outcome.

You don’t need to get locked into someone else’s path.

You get to experiment. You get to play.

You get to decide the way that works for you.

And… if it doesn’t work… you get to choose again.

Wasted

by Walt | Jan 16, 2020 | Success | 2 Comments

Are you wasting enough time?

If not, you may want to re-examine your priorities.

Reflection; connecting with that place of stillness within you.

These are not luxuries.

They’re necessities.

Waste some time this week.

Your Number May Be Wrong

by Walt | Jan 9, 2020 | Success | 0 Comments

When you look back on 2020, how will you know that you’ve succeeded?

How about when you look back on your life?

A lot of people have a “number” in mind when they think about success: An income number; a net worth number.

But that may not be the right measure.

When all is said and done, you’ll not look back and wish that you’d billed more time, run more ads, closed more deals, launched more programs, accumulated more miles, networked more, Tweeted more, LinkedIn more, updated your Facebook status more frequently.

What will matter will be that you’ve paid attention – not to the urgent – but to the important.

What will matter will be the experiences you’ve had, the magic moments you’ve created, the lives you’ve touched, the love you’ve shared.

What will matter will be that you will have lived with joy… and without regret.

Your “number” is important.

But know the metrics that matter most.

Ya Wanna Suck In 2020

by Walt | Jan 2, 2020 | Success | 0 Comments

Yup, it’s the New Year.

You’ve made your plans; you’ve set your goals.

And… now… if you really want to make it an extraordinary year… you want to suck.

I was brought up in a household where failure was frowned upon.

And we live in a culture that tells us that, with a few simple hacks, we’ll enjoy overnight success.

We’d all like it to be easy.

But… as the great Jim Rohn once said, “Don’t wish it was easier; wish you were better.”

And in order to get better, ya gotta suck first.

Happy New Year.
