The As-Soon-As Trap

The "As Soon As" syndrome keeps you stuck, making your next move—or worse, your happiness—dependent on something outside your control.

But here’s the truth: there’s never a perfect time to do anything worthwhile.

Every second, you have the power to choose your actions and your motivation. Don’t give that power away to circumstances or people you can’t control.

You are the CEO of your life. Be a good one.

The Hidden Cost of Doing Things "The Way They've Always Been done"

Some rules, regulations, and industry norms made sense when they were created but outlive their usefulness. Yet, we still follow them.

Being a non-conformist isn’t about rebelling for the sake of rebelling. It means asking why and demanding good reasons (of ourselves) for whatever we decide to do.

"Decide" is the operant word. “Because that’s how it’s done” isn’t a decision.

Success Is...

Success is deeply personal. For me, the career aspect of success means doing meaningful work that:

- Brings creative and intellectual fulfillment

- Creates positive change alongside smart, like-minded people

- Provides enough financial abundance to control my time—and, more importantly, my attention

Defining success on your own terms, free from societal expectations or “shoulds,” is one of the most valuable things you can do.
