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 |

Thankfully, he didn’t break his toe, but he did rip back the skin right on the tip of his toe—the very spot that rubs against and hits the toe box of his cleats. Possibly THE worst time to have an accident like this—I’m very aware that performance at a mini-camp, even for USA Soccer, at...
There's never been a better time to be a dreamer. Yesterday, I spent the day in a one-day mastermind with other financial advisors to build something from scratch using AI, specifically Claude. I brought the idea of a dashboard, eventually an app, that helps people monitor the alignment of their spirit, mind, body, and money. This dashboard only existed in my mind and some notes I had written down with features I wanted to see: Syncing with financial, health, and mindful apps. An analog...
They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results. Many of us wake up each day and do the same things we did the day before, leaving us frustrated, unhappy, and discontent. The good news is you don’t have to do the same thing over and over, expecting to feel different. If you want to see your life change—if you want to discover your Authentic Life, you can’t keep doing the same things over and over. To change your experience, you have to align what is not...
