One of the most impactful books I've ever read is Gay Hendricks’ The Big Leap . I find it helpful to revisit it in mid-January because it reminds me of this concept he discovered called “The Upper Limiting Problem.” In short, we each have a limit on how much abundance, success, and love we think we deserve. Once we start to get close to those thresholds, we self-sabotage and create chaos to stay within the boundaries we’re familiar with. The key to tapping into your highest potential is to start...

One of the most effective life hacks that I’ve discovered is this thing called Parkinson’s Law, which says, “work expands to fill the time available for its completion.” In other words, if you give yourself a month to do something, you’ll take every single day of that month to get it done. But, if you give yourself a week to do that same task, guess what? It will only take you seven days to finish it. I’m really in this season of kicking myself into high gear and maximizing every minute that I s...
