Productive Not Busy Podcast

You ever feel like you're working hard but not actually getting anywhere?

And let me tell you it's one of the most frustrating feelings in the world. The truth is, most people aren't failing because they're lazy. Most people are failing because they don't know where they're headed. They're busy. I mean real busy but they're busy without direction and

Setbacks are part of the game. If you're building a business or chasing a dream or just trying to be better in life, you're going to get hit with stuff you didn't deserve. Maybe it's a deal falling through the last second. Maybe it's the boss passing you over for a promotion? Or maybe it's a friend not showing up when you need the most.

There is a person staring back at you in the mirror every morning. Have you ever stopped to consider that this individual is, in fact, your most important employee? You are the employer of your own life, and that face looking back at you is the one who depends on your leadership, your discipline, and your ability to provide the tools necessary for success. If you were running a company, would you tolerate laziness, indecision, or self-sabotage from your most crucial worker? Absolutely not. So why do
