Interestingly its 1:42 like it was yesterday when I checked in.. today was a dynamic day... I had my first mentoring session with world-renowned motivational speaker Les Brown. I cant express how valuable this sessions was for me in my own personal growth and development. At age 81 he didn't skip a beat. He was just as dynamic and sharp as ever, spouting out quotes from great leaders like it was nothing. Interestingly he's re-iterated some of the same little pearls of wisdom that Jason has also been providing to us. Here are some pearls of wisdom from mouth of 81 year old Les Brown. ---Get someone to teach you what they have mastered. ---You net worth and income will be within 2-3K from the group for which you participate ---You don’t get what you want in life, You get in life what you are ---There’s no success without successors --- Building new strategic relationships is your path to greater success ---Jump out of line….Don't follow the pack My first assignment is to create a 1 minute powerful speech that resonates with an audience. All I can think of is WTF have I gotten myself into. This is 7 months of weekly sessions for the next 7 months all on improving my ability to communicate and persuade an audience. Its coming just in time as I am suppose to deliver a talk in front of 2-3K people at Gartner's Enterprise Risk, Audit and Compliance conference. Feels like I'm drinking from a firehose.. but that wont be for long. I'll rise to the challenge

It's 1:42 am, almost my bedtime. Just wanted to give you guys a little motivation to say that this is the beginning of a journey that's going to be full of ups/down, surprises, and revelations. Just hang on tight because I have a feeling Jason has been waiting to let the floodgates open. I feel like that's what he's doing while restructuring everything. Just know you can do this. This is the next phase of the evolution that's going to uplift us all into greater heights in all areas of our lives. Personally, I'm looking forward to all the things in store for us as we learn and grow over the coming weeks, months, etc...

Here's my daily habit schedule and tracking system to monitor my daily activities and progress, making it my new normal and standard. Let me know what you think.

I have been quiet in this group. Last year I made the decision to focus on two core skills. 1. High ticket sales closing 2. Creative strategy / Direct response copywriting. And with skills and work focus, also work on mental health & fitness. I started 2026 doing sales. I closed 1 new client and already added revenue to the business. Simple tweaks by sending better and more emails to a deal list. My goal for February: Sign 3 more clients and then only focus on delivery for the next 6 months. Work: Currently I am working on posting more content and doing outreach. My current outreach numbers vary between 50 and 200 per day. Fitness: Doing daily cardio and bodyweight training. So progress but a lot of work to do on everything daily. Happy Tuesday.

Wishing you a year full of growth, wins, and good energy. Let’s make this our best year yet!
