    Trying really hard is changing my life… (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I have always been pretty good at a lot of things, never exceptional, just good.In school, I never had to study that hard to do well. Not amazing but well. I got honor roll every semester, I passed my tests without really putting much effort in, giving it about 30% effort was more than good enough.When I got into university, I had to try a bit harder, that was the first time in my life I actually wrote book reports not the night before it was due, I really cared about my degree but for most of m

    For the last month I have been on a sabbatical.And to be clear, no, not burnt out.No, my life and business weren’t falling apart.No, I wasn’t having a breadown.I feel this an important caveat as most people take breaks in this space as a reaction and not a choice.I had planned this intentionally mid year to recover, to rest and to simply, not work.I knew that by June I’d be pretty keen for a break, I run my signature program One of One for 4 months from Feb to June, alongside my alumni space and
