+1: The Office Is Closed (#1351)
02/12/2022 Duración: 03min“Shutdown Complete!” for the Target Swipe Win Steven Pressfield is one of my all-time favorite writers. In addition to being a brilliant writer of both fiction and non-fiction, he’s a good human being. You can feel his wisdom and humility and realness with every word he writes. We’ve featured SIX of his brilliant books on the creative process including: The War of Art, Do the Work, Turning Pro, Nobody Wants to Read Your Sh*t, The Artist’s Journey and his most recent book: Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants to Be. Check out all those Notes if you want to learn more about how I approach the creative process. You can also check out Creativity 101 and the collection of Notes on the subject. As you know if you’re familiar with Pressfield and his style, his books are both inspiring and beautifully pithy. btw: I just looked that word up. Yep. His books are the very definition of pithy: “concise and forcefully expressive.” I read his latest book in an hour and fifteen minute

+1: My #1 WIN (Yours?) (#1350)
01/12/2022 Duración: 02minIf All You Did Today Was This… In our last couple +1s, we talked about my Top 3 Work targets and then we talked about my #1 Target: “Recommitting to my Sacred Vow.” As you may recall, these are my Top 3 Heroic Work Targets: I. Recommit to Sacred Vow (101 | 1M | 51 2051) II. #1 WIN III. Shut-down Complete Which begs the question… What are YOUR Top 3 Work Targets? I. ______________________ II. _____________________ III. _____________________ Quick check in… Have you taken a moment or three to reflect on that? If not, why not? Seriously… We’re trying to move from Theory to Practice to Mastery, Hero!! Let’s GOOO!!! Now… Today I want to chat about my #2 Heroic Work Target. Right after I reread and recommit to my Sacred Vow and BEFORE I allow ANY inputs into my life (no email, no smartphone, no inputs yet!), I decide what THE MOST IMPORTANT THING is that I’m going to do that day and then… I DO IT. And… As I like to say, if that was all I

+1: Vow > Kinda Sorta Committed (#1349)
30/11/2022 Duración: 05minThe Foundation for Greatness In our last +1, I shared my Sacred Vow with you. Then I encouraged YOU to consider creating your own Sacred Vow. Today I want to continue that discussion. We’ll invite Daisaku Ikeda to the party. He is the leader of Nichiren Buddhism and one of the most respected Buddhist philosophers alive whose work has inspired millions around the world. In Buddhism Day by Day he tells us about the importance of making a vow. Here’s how he puts it: “In any field of endeavor, making a vow is the foundation for achieving something great. If for whatever reason a person gives up halfway or backslides, his or her commitment hasn’t been based on a vow. Halfhearted desire doesn’t amount to a vow.” Vow. It means “a solemn promise.” It’s on the far right side of the spectrum of kinda sorta committed to ABSOLUTELY ALL IN (!) committed. (Kinda sorta) (VOW = ALL IN) A vow. A solemn pro

+1: The Sacred Vow (#1348)
29/11/2022 Duración: 04minHere’s Mine… What’s YOURS? In our last +1, we talked about my Top 3 Work Targets as I encouraged you to get clarity on and then commit to and hit YOUR top 3 targets. These are my Top 3 Work Targets: I. Recommit to Sacred Vow (101 | 1M | 51 2051) II. #1 WIN III. Shutdown Complete What are YOUR Top 3 Work Targets? I. ______________________ II. _____________________ III. _____________________ Today I want to chat a little more about my #1 Work target: Recommitting to my Sacred Vow. I have done this EVERY DAY for over a year and a half. It has been an incredibly powerful thing for me and I’ve been told by many people that it’s inspired them to create their own Sacred Vow so… Let’s chat a little more about it. But… First, a little more context. As you know if you’ve been following along, on election night 2020, I founded Heroic Public Benefit Corporation. A couple days later I learned that the crowdfunding regulations were changing such that startups like ours could go
