You know the prompt, "if you had unlimited resources how would you spend your time?"

Yes, cliche... but quite useful too.

See if I had unlimited resources, I know I'd spend more time connecting with people interviewing them on my podcast.

Step 1 of behavior change is awareness.

Step 2 is action. 

And like Marshawn Lynch, this newsletter is “bout that action boss.”

Sooo I started small and committed to recording my first podcast interview last month. 

Hired a quick video/audio editor…Then clicked publish last week!  

🎙️ Podcast Interview 

The first interview was with my friend Jason Wright.

Every time I talk to Jason I leave in a GREAT mood (and learn a few things).

Few highlights:

• Escaping Corporate America (bought first company at age 28)
• Goal setting and ability to say “why not do it now?”
• Pursuing a life (not a career)

Check it out here. 

🏆 Nobel Prize

You’ve heard of the Nobel Prize… but any idea how it started? 

Yeah me neither. (it’s wild)

So this dude Alfred Nobel was a Swedish chemist and the inventor of dynamite. 🧨 

But in 1888, after his brother died, the newspapers mistakenly printed Alfred's name. 

The obituary read: "The merchant of death is dead"

This prompted Alfred to think hard about his legacy. So he changed his will in 1895.

He wanted his fortune to fund a series of prizes for those who create the "greatest benefit to humankind".

The Nobel Prizes remain the highest honor 100+ years later.

All because of a misprinted obituary. 

Legacy is a powerful tool.

🔍 Motion vs Action 

I think about this all the time. (then I stop thinking about it bc overanalyzing = motion, not action)

It’s a great framework.

Start with a simple t-chart to audit your week. 

Have an epic week.
