This early 20’s kid consistently out-hustles people 10-20 years older than him.
That's the simple secret. People that move get results. He wanted to get into web design, so I gave him some resources and told him to do it for free to build experience. Week after week, I get questions on business, entrepreneurship, how to get unstuck. Week after...

Surprised her with tickets to the "O" show and a Huracán for the weekend in Vegas. The unscripted parts of the trip were the funnest. Randomly driving around and seeing the Palms building was an awesome memory. Next year will be 20 years since we flew to Vegas for a...
Last night was a first.

Grateful for Opportunities
Was just invited to speak about SEO at a private marketing event at a 5-star resort in Mexico. I'll be teaching business owners the power of showing up consistently to dominate their marketplace, suppress competition, and increase sales... all with strategies that are...
