Those who want to win will come prepared, do the work, and take proactive risks that drive better results. 

Pushing past and through fear is how we grow. 

While not easy to admit or understand, once you are an adult:

• Physical abuse has victims.
• Mental and emotional abuse has participants. 

You cannot control if and when you are physically abused. 

Emotional and mental abuses can be stopped, avoided, and controlled by the boundaries you set, your internal beliefs, and the actions you permit. 

A players don’t need to be told HOW to do their job. 

B players do. 

A players have potential left and work to capitalize on it. 

B players have the right experience but never realize their potential. 

Optionality is often a desire for those who have yet to commit. 

We have the ability to forgive,

and the ability to the ability to keep going, 

as long as, 

we choose to do so. 

Letting others determine where you should be is never the right choice. 

​The most inspiring leaders cultivate confidence and courage in others by caring more, leading with transparency, and creating space for growth by serving first, and guiding always. 

​Making a decision, any decision, can quickly reveal what you truly want. Desire, aligned with values, leads to meaningful action. Commitment turns that action into lasting fulfillment. And when you help others along the way, success becomes shared and deeply satisfying.

To suffer is not weakness.

But to suffer blindly—without understanding—is foolish. Know yourself, especially in the moment of pain, and you will find that any pain, even rejection becomes your teacher.
