Here’s why your plan sucks. ⤵️ – Whether it’s a business plan or fitness plan — really any type of plan — there are 3 common critical flaws… ❌❌❌ – 1. You’ve really thought it through (and that’s it). How many publicly traded companies run strategies that exist nowhere but the ether? How many rely on strategies and tactics that don’t take written P&L and cash flow projections? How many Olympic athletes don’t have clearly written programming? Write they 💩 down! Magic happens when you put words on a page. – 2. You’re more optimistic than a dieter on New Year’s Day. No need to be pessimistic, but consider best case scenarios a gift — not given. Plan for the worst, hope for the best, and know you’ll likely end up somewhere in the middle. Not recognizing worst case scenarios will leave you realizing that Sh*t Creek sucks, sucks worse without a paddle, and even worse when you don’t have a map to navigate out. 🧭 – 3. You have absolutely no way to reliably measure it. Are we profitable? Is that profit cash? (Oh waitttt…there’s a difference?) And sometimes measurement systems are highly flawed — remember when you just started lifting and your squat nearly doubled each month, so by now you should be squatting 10,000lbs or more? Exactly. The key is *reliably* measuring. 🌡 – Yes, planning can be more boring than watching someone read their PowerPoint slides word for word…but the results can be exciting AF! 🔥🔥🔥

Read this article Yes that’s Steve from 90210 and I waddling like ducks. Don’t judge. But seriously… — June is #menshealthmonth. Women certainly face unique health challenges (my grandmother is a breast cancer survivor), but we men have ours too. THE PROBLEM IS DUDES BUY INTO “THE HERO WITHOUT FRIENDS” MYTH. — We’re raised to believe we ought to be entirely self-sufficient and, while that may be true for boiling rice (if you’re lucky), it is not true for medicine! — We need to get screened and have regular physicals…even if that means undesired butt stuff. 👆🍑 — But the best thing you can do for male health is 1) Exercise (duh!), and 2) Stop being a “hero without friends.” Loneliness and stress are killers and that super-alpha lone wolf sh*t will kill you! — Be a hero with friends and tag a friend who needs to get his 🍑 to the gym…or doctor! 😳

Read this article Sorry to ruin your beers & BBQ weekend…but #PTSD, #suicide, #depression & #addiction are real problems for our #veterans and their families. – We treat our celebrities infinitely better than those who put their life at risk for our freedom to worship the red carpet. – The very least we can do is: 1- Show gratitude. 2- Show respect. 3- Give back. – Here are just a few options: @wwp @sofwarriorfnd @fisherhousefdtn – #memorialday #memorialdayweekend

Read this article When’s the last time you stopped to think about…what’s right? – We’re wired to ask what’s wrong, seek what’s wrong, and identify what’s wrong. It’s a primal survival skill. – The problem is that it’s also the greatest threat to survival when it goes sideways. – When people are in the throes of #depression it’s their entire focus. – When #suicide becomes the answer, as it alarmingly grows as the 2nd leading cause of death for men under 50, it’s all they see. – Implications? Start a #gratitude practice. NOW. – Don’t wait until you need medical help for depression or suicidal ideation. Even if everything is peachy, this will only enhance your life. – It’s easy: Just ask yourself “What’s right?” – Your immediate thoughts may reject the presupposition of this question and say nothing…and that’s when you keep asking. – Something is right. Something is good. Someone loves you. I promise. – As #mentalhealthawarenessmonth comes to a close, now is a good time to pause for a second and reflect. Take stock. And please do, spread the word. – Even better: if you have a gratitude practice, what is it? What does it do for you? Please drop a comment below! 🙏🏻
