Your Greatness Is Not Just For You (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve been thinking about something today.Thinking about the thread that connects Zig Ziglar’s life's work, the book and message I’ve built, called Illuminate Your Greatness, and, honestly, everything I’ve come to believe about what it means to lead well and live well.The idea is this: your greatness is not just for you.Sounds simple. But I think it’s the thing most leaders miss, or at least the thing they forget when the pressure is on, and the calendar is full, and success starts feeling like i
The Principle That Has Never Failed Me (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I want to talk about one idea today. Just one.It’s the most important thing Zig Ziglar ever said, in my opinion. And I’ve been watching it prove itself true for my entire career.You can have everything in life you want if you just help enough other people get what they want.When I first heard that at 18, sitting in a seminar my parents had brought me to, it landed somewhere I wasn’t expecting.

The farewell speech. The thing people say about you after you’ve left.I’ve come to think about it completely differently.Legacy isn’t something you build at the end of your career. It’s something you’re building right now, in every conversation, every decision, every way you choose to show up. The question
What Keeps Happening Because of You (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve been building toward this.Everything in this series- the asset, the thresholds, the book as platform, the passion and purpose underneath it, the legacy you’re building whether you’re thinking about it or not- it all points toward a question that I think is the most important one in this conversation.What do you actually get back?I call it Return on Authority. And I want to be clear that I mean it in two ways simultaneously because both matter, and treating them as separate is how you end up
