And we had a terrible day. We’ve all been sick for days. I had to go back to my day job today. My wife spent the whole day alone with 2 sick toddlers who decided today was the day to test the limits. I came home to chaos. Kids yelling. Exhausted wife. I had to go straight into enforcer mode. The rest of the night sucked. Not exactly the anniversary we planned. This is exactly why I’m building what I’m building. Not to buy fancy stuff or flex for social media. For days like today. So we can celebrate our anniversary instead of just survive it. I subscribe to the “extreme ownership” philosophy that every outcome you achieve (or don’t) is directly controlled by you. I know there are outside forces. But whether you build the life you want or not is totally up to you. And I have a lot working against me. I can make the day job excuse all I want. But that’s mine to deal with cause guess what? I’m not where I want to be yet. I AM a hell of a lot closer than I was this time last year. And it doesn’t really matter whether I have a day job or not. Because I’m not giving myself another fucking option. I will not beat my body down at a job for another 30 years. I won’t spend the rest of my life being the stressed about money dad/husband who can’t give my family the best version of me. I will put the lake in my backyard. Or I will die trying. I don’t have any other option. So here’s to 9 years with my best friend. Even on the hard days. Especially on the hard days.

A few months ago I asked Travis for advice on joining a new program to add another income stream. His reaction wasn’t what I expected. He said “You already have everything you need to make more money than you know what to do with. Constantly searching for a new financial vehicle is going to cost you a lot of money” And of course he’s right. Shiny object syndrome kills a lot of people. It has done a number on me over the years. I watch Travis work and part of me sees a guy who does so many different things and makes it look easy. Guess what? I’m not Travis. I have very limited time and bandwidth. I need to focus. Stay narrow and go deep. Even though Travis makes money in 50-11 different ways… he also sticks to the basics and has his bread and butter tactics. When I first started learning from him in October 2024 I asked “based on all the different things you teach, what’s the 1 thing I should do first?” His response was “Fun Auction!” Over a year later and what’s he been talking about non stop the last few weeks in multiple groups? Fun auctions! The fundamentals work. They’ve always worked. They’ll keep working. But only if you actually stick with them long enough to see results. I’ve wasted years chasing the next thing. The next strategy. The next program. The next “breakthrough.” I’ve had some success lately. I also have a long list of half finished projects and a lot of lessons about what NOT to do. The real breakthrough came when I stopped looking for breakthroughs… I do well when I pick one approach and commit. Look at what’s already in front of you. You might already have everything you need. We just need to focus long enough to see it through.

Most of my biz friends have done free Zooms and webinars… BUT… What if they were guaranteed an amount (and paid in advance) before they did one? (And they didn’t have to do one lick of selling.) Question for ya… 👇 👉How much would it take for YOU to be HAPPY putting on a paid 2 hour Zoom for your people? Rooting for Ya, Travis PS Thank you in advance for your help! 🙏 If I can get enough responses, I’ll share how I just sold paid Zooms for $30,000 to a small tribe of my peeps. I AM also looking for people I can pay! 👇👇👇

Hey Chooser. If you deal with clients you’ve heard this too many times. "Can you hop on a quick call?" It's never quick. And it always happens during dinner. Right before bed. Saturday morning. At your kid's game.. Because when you have clients you're always on call. They're paying you, so you answer. Even when you're exhausted. Even when it's your day off. Even when you're with your family. The more clients you get, the worse it gets. I talked to a friend last week who has 6 different clients. Making good money… but also getting Slack messages at 10pm. "Quick question" texts on Sunday. Scope creep on every project. Great money… But less freedom than ever. That's the trap nobody talks about. He didn't build the lifestyle business we’re all after. He just added more bosses. Is the price worth it? Spending nights answering "quick questions". Weekends catching up on scope creep. Not being present with family. We see it all the time. People grinding harder and harder. Making more money. But having less freedom than when they started. There's a different way. And it doesn't require you to work harder or get more clients.
