the Weekly Note Vol. 67


I hope you had a great weekend---ours was busy with an AAU tournament, which is why you're getting this Monday morning. Usually, I can get work done between games, but this weekend I didn't have a strong enough signal in the gym to work online.

I'll keep the intro short since I know you've already kicked off your week and are in your daily routine.

Keep Pursuing Series "mind control"

The sixth talk in the Keep Pursuing Series, "mind control," is now on YouTube and your favorite podcast player.

As you'll see in one of this week's Notes, this talk is the last in-person one I am going to do until this fall. I am going to try to give "money" and "aligned capital" in person. I want to find new locations to give these talks, put a lot of marketing effort behind it, and see if I can grow the excitement behind these two talks.

I've learned a lot while giving monthly talks for the first half of the year, and I want to take what I've learned and make some adjustments to the Series.

Don't worry, the remaining talks will still be given and will end up on YouTube and the podcast player--the complete Series will be given, but I'm calling an audible on the back half of the year.

Ok, let's get to the rest of the Weekly Notes...

📺 John John Florence on Rich Roll Podcast

The wannabe surfer in me really enjoyed listening to John John's story--I wasn't familiar with him before he joined Rich Roll.

For me, John John's choice to prioritize his family and maintain his passion for surfing over continuing to compete more is incredibly inspiring.

I also appreciate how he pursues his other interests, like photography--a great example of living an authentic life and evolving with it.

This morning, as I was walking out of the gym, I had a thought cross my mind that I wanted to explore further in today’s Note. Today was my first morning working out with my friend, who is now also my trainer, Franqlin. I’ve been working out sporadically at home and still doing yoga when the summer mornings allow it; I wouldn’t say I’ve lost my discipline, but I’m not getting the physical workouts I want in, and I know it’s because working out alone by my Self is not the way for me. I need to...

“I’ve realized for some reason, God placed the most beautiful things in life on the other side of our worst terrors…you must make a conscious effort to attack all the things you are scared of…that is how you get to experience the best things life has to offer.” - Will Smith It’s counterintuitive, but follow fear. And not just fear, but discomfort, nervousness, and doubt. When you do this enough, you will become excited when these emotions show up—it may not make it any easier to take the...

“Concerning all acts of initiative or creation, there is one elementary truth…that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too…A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man would have believed would have come his way.” - W.H. Murray This phenomenon is exactly what a client experience, as I shared in this voice note in an Omen. Once you have a vision of what you want,...
