The secret to life isn't collecting more peak experiences, but in recognizing the ordinary as peak experiences. I have a lot less money now than I did in 2019. I had just sold my company, and I legitimately thought I had won the game of life. Turns out, I was just getting
I’ve traveled the world and done a lot of cool stuff, but my single most cherished memory is the sound of my 3 year old daughter (now 20) dropping everything and running across our old wood floors—BOOM BOOM BOOM—to greet me when I got home from work. That’s the peak.

I wish upon everyone a failure that brings you to your knees. Sounds harsh, but I mean it from a place of love. Three years ago this month, I sold a failing company for a massive loss. My finances were in shambles. I nearly lost everything. But not all losses are
⚡️You didn’t lose five years. You paid five years of tuition for a version of yourself that could not survive the next decade. Money gone. People gone. Plans gone. What’s left is the part that cannot be taken. Everyone thinks the “waste years” are failures. They are the

Here's the inversion most high performers never see coming: The more successful you become, the more psychologically expensive failure gets. Here's how it happens and how to get unstuck: When you are young, your potential is unlimited. So you set big goals. You get to

I showed this to my wife and now I’m sleeping on the couch.
The roommate cleaning problem: Alice and Bob are roommates. Alice can put up with the apartment reaching a 6/10 in messiness. Bob is only slightly less sensitive to mess. He will clean at 6.5/10. In practice, Alice does all the cleaning, since they never reach 6.5.

Helping family/friends with money can destroy relationships. Most people think the problem is how to structure the money part. But it's actually the hidden psychological contracts that breed resentment. Here is the only way I've ever seen it work: 1. Only lend or give
My sister in law asked for $550 She’s behind on car payments And is losing her job this week Due to poor performance & attendance Her husband doesn’t work They have 3 young kids We want to help her But don’t want to be enablers Is giving the money a mistake? 🤔

Growing up, I watched my parents fight every night. And they only fought about one thing: Money. I hated it. So at 13, I made a vow. I decided to make so much money that I would never have to worry about it ever again. This vow became my driving force. I worked hard in

Aaron Houghton sold his company for $169 million before his 30th birthday. Then his body forced him to face what his mind had been avoiding. Here are my biggest takeaways from our conversation: 1- Burnout happens when you mistake your redline for your baseline. 2- Real

Proper take.
Most people dunking on Michael Dell’s wife have no idea who the man actually is. This dude became a billionaire at 26. Took his company private. Bought it back. Then built one of the greatest comeback stories in tech. And he did it with the same woman by his side since 1989! 36

Don’t buy this lie. Money can’t buy happiness if you focus only on yourself. This week I had the privilege of facilitating breakout sessions at a conference of 150+ post-exit founders. People who have built massively successful companies. Centi-millionaires. Billionaires.
Net worth of $14M but life is “boring”. Money can’t buy happiness.

Wealth is a feeling, not a number. When we think we want more money, what we really want is the feeling we imagine more money will give us. Feelings, by their very nature, can only be a now experience. So instead of focusing solely on getting more money to feel wealthy

Unpopular opinion: Embrace being 80% as you could be. Reserve 100% effort for a few small, concentrated sprints with asymmetric returns. Lock in for a period when it counts the most. For the rest of the time, 80% is good enough. There is a cost to be all in, all time. It’s

"Work hard, work on something that can scale, and pray you get lucky." Too many founders only credit #1. Hard work is an ingredient in the recipe for success, but far from the only one. Luck and timing are equally important, but those don't fit as neatly into the hero's
I should be more thankful. 8 years ago I was a struggling agency guy. My agency MIGHT bill a million a year. But me and Connor had no money. Live together, uber pool, every payroll was tight- type no money. We had no safety net. No savings, no rich parents. It either worked
