I heard someone at the airport say “Cool Beans” today. It’s been a minute since I’ve heard that phrase! How would you even begin to explain that one to your kids? “When we were young, beans and their coolness were considered a sign of inherent goodness.”

One of the top 3 most depressing sounds of all time is a vacuum in the airport because it means your flight was epically delayed and you have landed amongst the third shift, sent in the dead of night to free us daywalkers from Auntie Anne’s crumbs.

October speaking season is a go! Here's where I have events this month: 1. Oklahoma City 2. Springfield, MO 3. Harrisburg, PA 4. Marana, AZ 5. Orlando 6. Las Vegas 7. Ft. Myers, FL 8. Columbus, OH

About to watch “Legends of the Fall” for the first time. For some reason this movie completely eluded me for years.

Ha! This is such a perfect response.

I turn 50 in December. I’ll spend the next few months working through my favorite goal framework to prepare for a remarkable decade. I’m curious, when you’ve had a milestone birthday, (30,40,60,70 etc.) what did you do to take inventory and make the most of that new frontier?

I grew up in New England and we didn’t have college football except for this one time when Doug Flutie beat Miami. But then I married a southern girl and moved to Nashville and realized football changes the entire climate of this region. SEC football is electric!

I’ve written 10 books that sold more than a million copies. How did I do it? More importantly, how can you? Turn your thoughts into actions and your actions into results. I’ll show you how to do it in my free challenge. Don’t miss it:

The ONLY reason you should ever do a monthly review. I’m reviewing August right now in anticipation of September starting tomorrow. Reviews, which are the fourth stage of the goal system I teach (Dream, Plan, Do, Review) can be tricky because if you’re not careful, you’ll waste

What are your broken soundtracks about money? Five years ago, I started researching the topic of mindset so that I could write my book "Soundtracks." After thousands of hours on the subject, I can say without a shred of doubt that people have more broken soundtracks about money

My creativity skyrocketed when we had kids. How? Because we were stuck at home. Every night they were asleep at 7 or 8pm. I could either binge TV or write. I chose to write and finished my first book. Have kids young. You’ll never be ready. Ready is a myth.

We just got to a restaurant and it’s an hour for a table. What’s the max time you’ll wait for a normal place? (Normal = Not some Michelin starred place that serves deconstructed memories of beets.)

I was in Chicago this week and there was a 5,000-person scrapbooking event at the hotel next to us. 5,000 people! AI, social media, and Zoom are all amazing but people are DESPERATE for real community. The future is human.

It's hard to pick just a few key takeaways from a day filled with absolute 💎s! #GLS25 @GLNsummit
