On Fatherhood, Manhood & Becoming Better Ancestors.
“Focus is about saying no.”
-Steve Jobs
In a world filled with distractions and hundreds of open tabs that you will “get to later”-
saying no allows you to stay laser-focused.
Easier said than done. Especially when you have to say no to people.
The world rewards the people who are the best at communicating ideas, not the people with the best ideas.
- David Perell
Over and over. Year after year.
And back again.
Four siblings with…
4 windows to the world.
We each had to keep our heads together until we were able to walk our own paths.
“What you don’t say
is separating us”
Some conversations are tough. So we choose not to have them.
Resentment builds as the years move on.
At some point, the words never said drive a wedge that is almost impossible to undo.
Now what?
“Confidence is not a belief…
in success, it’s a comfort with failure.” @iammarkmanson
In baseball, the best hitters miss 7 out of 10 times. In basketball, the best miss 1 out of every 2 shots.
Keep shooting. Keep swinging. Keep showing up.
I don’t judge people… except one-finger typers.
