If you think having low standards is cool, mailing it in is gas, caring is wack, and showing your butthole online for money is GOATED... Skip this one lil guy.

As human beings, generally speaking, we are pretty much lazy as shit. It takes a lot of effort to constantly fight the urge and push for the proper stimulus that you need for growth - but it's absolutely vital if you're serious about accomplishing things in whatever area of your life. I stumbled upon one of the more entertaining Internet, beefs involving the "science based " lifting community and the grizzled veterans that are just promoting common sense, lifting advice and actually talking about growing and have the results to back it up. It's definitely made me reflect back on how this concept has been playing out in my life, my business, my fitness journey, etc..

The funniest thing about this entire situation is that the people offering them advice the loudest and most confidently are the ones who quite literally have absolutely nothing to show for the results that they're promoting. Maybe tomorrow's episode is gonna touch on shutting the fuck up until you have actual results.

In every deal there's more than one component - Price... everyone seems to focus on Price and they tend to forget all the other pieces that are involved in every single deal that you make. Relationship capital, trust., guarantees, delivery methods, and timelines, etc all factor into whether or not they offer is attractive or not. People are not out here, solely focused on price despite your aggressive belief that that is the case. You probably have clients who are literally in business with you almost solely because they like you ( as strange as that may sound...).

I recommendation is to figure out how you can extract the hidden value and offer up more value in every deal that you make by beginning to actually recognize what is going on in the deal.

As a result of a meeting that I did the other day with my friend Darren Shaw, I decided to completely revamp my desk set up. This has gone in lockstep with a lot of the recent changes I've been making as well digitally to get things organized so that I can be more productive. Check out Facebook if you wanna see some photos of the new desk set up and if you have questions on anything feel free to ask how I've configured any of it if you're interested in setting up a small studio space for yourself as well.

Time to put an end to the rambling! Today was a flurry of activity - I hired a new subcontractor on the spot to help run ads for me as I scale. I made the decision to completely revamp my desk set up so that I could pump out content, faster, and stop having to hunch over it like an awkward turtle. I visited a client's new location and helped them untangle some spaghetti and did a little bit of untangling myself. kudos were had all around. Time to up the production value fam

Stereotypes are just patterns. some are true. some are false. some helpful. and some negative. Everyone recognizes them but you can act on them to change the trajectory of your life if you choose to.

today was a super busy day absolutely grinding things out and making things happen nailing down this new on boarding process while trying to also juggle current client load and website builds has me looking like I've got four arms. Shit is crazy over here, but we are making it happen and I'm excited to have contractors on board and everybody organized with orders in the water going in the same direction.

two days in a row! I expect this is going to get harder and harder as time goes on, but it's another great growing opportunity for Catalyst RVA marketing agency and me personally as well... so today I'm digging into some thoughts about hiring and what I'm looking for and why. In the process of scaling my agency, I know I'm going to need to add a few members to the party so to speak – and that means I have to get organized and gear up so that we can all work efficiently and not turn into a clownworld fuckin circus.

Today was the day we started that organizational process... Also, I put some lazer beams on my gun for BB Wars.
