Going to university was very expensive. Knowing I would have to pay back the huge loans drove and empowered me to pursue any and all learning interests. Sometimes against the advice of university counselors and mentors.
Since I was young, I was obsessed with learning how people succeed over and over again. As an adult I studied the science and psychology success. In my research, I found 4 building blocks that created a foundation for successfully reinventing myself multiple times.
For years I created and delivered content on stages and classrooms. When the pandemic started, I had to reinvent that into digital content.
Small decisions, minor changes, little tweaks. These may just be powerful enough to change our lives. If you want to change your life, you have to consider doing one thing differently today. You may be one decision away from breakthrough and success. Do not miss this opportunity.
In this blog post, I explore how goals might actually distract you from success and where you should place your focus instead. I apply this to relationships, careers, education, and sports.
Mistakes are often avoided for fear of failure and other undesirable consequences. However, mistakes are the feedback by which we learn how to improve our techniques and approaches. Mistakes are the building blocks to success and avoiding them directly affects your chances of greater success.

In this blog post, I discuss a personal experience where I learned the power of making mistakes like I meant to and how it lead to spectacular results.
