This is me, sharing where I'm arriving in thoughts, perspectives, and ideas after a dynamic 21 years serving in the Marine Corps and wrestling with "Who Am I"; authentically, and Who Do I Want To Be" now that the military construct is not forcibly shadowing my life. I've found that Nature and tackling the physical & emotional challenges of ultra endurance adventuring provide more insight and clarity on the why's of my experiences and the where's that I can seek for continued personal growth.
Just a bunch of stuff that I've had on my mind for the last 3 weeks.
I 'm pretty sure we've all heard and/or used the phrase "An empty well can fill another's cup." Or something to that effect.
I never really thought of my well ever really getting that close to danger…
Had an opportunity to talk to Connor to capture some thoughts on Diesel Days, Big Fish Fundraiser and a few random happenings after he processed the past few weeks with a handful of other participant…
The last few weeks/month I've been struggling with a lot of internal dialogue regarding whether I'm Ok: not as OK as I think I am and/or more OK than 'they' want or need me to be.
I dunno. But, I pro…
Finally recording some thoughts regarding a podcast I listened to a few months ago.
Naval Ravikant - How to Build Wealth @Jorgenson's Soundbox
Boyd Varty - The Lion Tracker's Guide to Life on @ The Tim…
I've been thinking a lot about exploring capacity, experiences, and margins. Specifically in regards to these challenges and physical events I find myself endeavoring towards. A sense of adventure th…
First podcast in a while; January. Felt good to find this again and just some ramble about tasks and being busy.
Committed to digging in again and not falling into my own trap of moving goalposts.
Just a little conversation how I see things when it comes to thinking we're special.
Not sure what the New Year will bring in regards to episodes, but I guarantee they will be authentic.
A massive ramble as I am working on a couple of things still in my head.
Necessity or Genuine Desire as an essential requirement for true change?
Then somehow I ended up on Informed vs Influenced which…
Pulling from the IG post yesterday to elaborate a little.
Why feign to fit in when it creates a dissonance inside yourself, assumes a lot about what other's intentions & fancy, and over time increases…
Back from hunting for a week up in Montana with some amazing people. It's hard not to feel recharged after spending time with a caliber/ quality group on a ranch living the good life.
Lead, Don't Chase.
It's something that a good friend and mentor said to me once and that he holds it close to when leading his business. I'm finding it strikingly relevant lately as I look into friend…
People who do not truly know what Leadership is and cannot get away from their own personal interest/ ego should not be Leaders. Especially among the governing body of our Nation and responsible for …
I find it increasingly hard to figure out who to trust these days. Certainly not the media. Certainly not the Government.
Whatever happened to Leadership. Like, true genuine Leadership?
If there was an…
Coming off a two week client engagement and on the back side of coming out of the 'crud' I am finally up and sharing some thoughts again.
I'm sharing how I look at Leadership from a certain lens of …
Spending a few moments talking about making sure how I'm influenced supports who I am and what drives me.
Spent some time recently thinking about my needs, wants, and ability to deliver on friendship. Relationships are less than clean and there likely isn't any single blueprint given we are all different…
Just finished up our annual fundraiser for our non-profit: www.bigfishfoundation.org and trying to sort through the fuzz I'm feeling. What a great success but it's hard not to feel a little empty and…
Back from a two week hiatus. Simply wrestling with the concepts of being consistent vs trying to force things at the expense of the authenticity that I'm pursuing.
Conversation about putting negative …
