Big wins. Big wins...are...(wait for it)...big. They shift your perspective and take you to a new level and most importantly change things. But because they're "big", they're necessarily rare as well. When you do get one, it's like your life tilts upside down. If you have the fortune to do it back-to-back, it's tempting to go crazy and think that every day will be filled with big wins. The dopamine hit you get off a big win can be addicitng, but it's ...

Get Your Shoes On, Get Out The Door
I'm running an ultramarathon in order to build a school in Guatemala and provide education for 1,000 students. An ultra marathon: 50 kilometers. That's 31 miles.

Get Disciplined, Not Motivated
There's a lot of problems with simple motivation: Motivation is fleeting Motivation comes and goes however it wants. It might not last to the end of the week, end of the day, or even the end of blog post you just read. It's fleeting. Motivation is situational Motivation is based on your current situation. How do you feel? If you don't feel like doing it, then you're off the hook. You don't have to do it - because you don't feel like it! But then you ...
