Today’s Note is an assignment. I want you to pick a word for ‘25 that will act as your North Star for the year. I know it’s the time of the year for short-lived resolutions and half-assed commitments–I speak from experience, but I’ve found that having a word, or a theme, for a year has helped me stay focused for the entire year. Your word could encompass your resolutions; for example, my word for last year was “discipline”. If your goal were to lose weight, work out more, etc., discipline would still guide you toward that goal—focus on the behavior or character trait, not the activity. So pick a theme and share it with someone—you can share it with me by just hitting reply (or DM’ing me if you’re reading this on LinkedIn). My word for ‘25 is “patience.” I’ll share more in the coming days about why I chose it–or better yet, it chose me. JC |

This...
“Following your genuine intellectual curiosity is a better foundation for a career than following whatever is making money right now.” -Naval Ravikant Rarely is chasing money the right decision in the long term. I know staying with your curiosity or intuition over money is easier said than done, but a decision made solely for money is usually not aligned with your Authentic Life, which is why it rarely works in the long run. Like many of my beliefs, I’ve not only witnessed it, but I’ve also...
Once you’ve found your Authentic Self…stop hedging. Once you’ve found how to bring your unique gifts and talents to the world…stop hedging. Once you’ve gotten clear on your Authentic Life…stop hedging. Once you know, don’t downplay it…stop hedging. I was talking with a friend today about our businesses, and I shared with him how the momentum for my work at Santiago was picking up. He commented that I had been at it for a while now, which made me reflect. I have been in the business of the...
