I’m not everyone’s cup of tea. In fact, I am not for most. The way I think. The way I act. The things I do and say – Is not for everyone. I get that. I see that. I understand that. And I’m GLAD for that. I don’t WANT to be for everyone. Can you imagine how fucking miserable life would be if EVERYONE loved you? If everyone thought you were perfect? If everyone thought you did no wrong? That’s a lot of fucking pressure. I like being for the very few. The very few who just GET ME. The very few who are just LIKE ME. Everyone else can piss off. If you aren’t JUST LIKE ME – I don’t want to talk to you. Harsh? Maybe. Do I care? Not a bit. As much as I care about others and want to inspire you and change lives with my words, I can’t fucking stand most people. When I’m in a room full of strangers, I feel like I’m suffocating. And when someone comes up to talk to me, I want to puke. WHAT? I have to actually TALK to this person? To this person who is probably not a damn thing like me? Small talk? No thanks! I will turn that shit down so fast, you’ll think I’m a bitch within seconds. Don’t care. I’ll never stop being me. I’ll never stop giving ZERO fucks about what you think of me. I just want to work. I just want to hustle. I just want to get shit done. I just want to cross off my to-dos. I’m...

Sometimes (okay fine, A LOT of the time), I’m riled up. I just want to shake some sense into you. I can’t stand a lot of the shit you say – That’s too expensive I don’t know I can’t afford it I don’t have the time right now Maybe another time Maybe later This is too hard I don’t get it I don’t know how I have to manifest the money (AHHHH SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP, GET OUT OF MY FACE) I can’t do that! FUCK THAT SHIT. Are you really TRYING to be so damn negative? Are you really TRYING to fuck up your life? Are you really TRYING to be so damn MEDIOCRE? I just want to SCREAM! PLEASE. Please stop doing this shit to yourself!! God damn it, don’t you realize? You are POWERFUL. You have so much GOOD to share. You don’t HAVE to settle where you are. You don’t have to give up on opportunities that could change your life forever. You don’t have to stay STUCK! Get your message out there. Speak louder. YELL! Use your voice for good. SO MANY people need to hear what you have to say. You don’t know just how much you matter. It is safe for you to show up. It is safe for you to be fully present. It is safe for you to go all in and give ALL of yourself. You MUST do you. It’s the ONLY way. And yes – Be prepared: You will hear from negative, small-minded people, as they try to talk you down from the ledge you’re about...

Let’s talk about intentions. Not goals. Not things you WISH would happen. Not even things you say you want. But concrete, “this is happening, no matter what” INTENTIONS. This time of year people are busy working away on their goals, their resolutions, their special word for 2017, but you know what matters from those things? NOTHING. None of those things matter. None of those things will make much of a difference in your life. Because they are flimsy. They’re BLAH. They’re “would be nice” ideas in your head. And in all honesty – They mean NOTHING. Intentions, however, stand alone. They are everything. When you set intentions, you’re telling yourself that what you want is already DONE. There is no other choice than to succeed. Setting an INTENTION is really locking it in and push, push, pushing until it’s DONE. It goes a little something like this – STEP 1: FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU WANT Don’t guess. Don’t aim for things you don’t want, just because you think you SHOULD want them. What do you really and truly WANT? If there was no choice but for you to HAVE what you wanted, what would that look like? Business class travel? Private chef? Monthly travel? $100K months? Multiple homes? Be specific. What do you really want? Don’t worry about others will think about you wanting this kind of life? Only your opinion matters. What is it that you want in your life? STEP 2: CLAIM IT Journal, daily. Be clear about what you want. Every single detail, even ones you think are insignificant. Ask the universe, God, whatever you believe...

If you coud be that “perfect” version of yourself right NOW – If you didn’t have to WAIT to be this person – If you had no fears or reservation around what she looked like as a whole – How would that look to you? How would you spend your time? Who would you spend that time with? How would you dress? Where would you shop? What would you invest in? How would you speak? Think about it. Who is this successful person? This person with everything she’s ever wanted, this person living your dream lifestyle, this person without a care in the world.. Who is she? She’s YOU! If you can see her, feel her presence, have those big deams and the vision of eventually BEING this person, then guess what, it’s already happening! You are in the process of making that dream life a reality, instead of just thinking about it in your head and how it might be when you finally make it happen. The time to make it happen is NOW. The time to start being that “perfect” you is right fucking now! Want to seriously uplevel your life? Start acting as the person who has already done so. The future you! The future can be NOW, if you just make that decision. If you remind yourself that you don’t have to wait. That you can be, do and have everything you want RIGHT NOW. Growing up, I was always told that – If you want something, you need to save up to be able to afford it. You have to stay in school if...

There seems to be a lot of resistance around wanting to accept more than what you already have. I was speaking with one of my rockstar clients yesterday, right after she’d closed her BIGGEST MONTH EVER ($30K!), and I asked her what her goal was for December. When she told me it was $30K again, I asked her why. She didn’t know. I asked her if she would be happy to continue to receive $30K every month, or if she wanted to make more. She mentioned the things she would do with the money if she made, say, $50K a month and decided that NO, she would not be happy with just $30K a month forever. Not that she was ungrateful for the $30K she’d already received (she most definitely was!), but because in order to live her dream lifestyle, she was going to have to up the ante. But she had reservations.. she was scared to even make more than $30K in a month.. “What would I even DO with all of that money?” “Who actually needs $50K in a month anyway?” “What would my boyfriend think of me making much more money than him?” “What if my friends or my parents get mad at me for making more than they do?” We talked through this, and at the end, she realized that she wasn’t going to SETTLE just to make other people happy. She wants to grow, to expand, to reach more people, to make more MONEY. And so she is! Sometimes I’m confused when people don’t want to make more money. I’m like “don’t you want...
