Donโ€™t give up just because it got difficult. Donโ€™t give up just because you had a setback. Donโ€™t give up just because you got off the path. Donโ€™t give up just because you have doubts. Donโ€™t give up just because they donโ€™t believe. Keep going. Keep fighting. Keep moving forward.

The pursuit to make people comfortable only makes people weak. Life doesnโ€™t cater to our wants or preferences. The world isnโ€™t designed to make it easy or to make you feel good. Learn to operate in uncomfortable situations. Train yourself to manage emotions and stay committed.

The only way to deal with your fear is to deal with it. Not worrying about it. Not endlessly talking about it. Not dwelling on it. Not dismissing it. Not shaming yourself for it. Not hoping it goes away. Fear thrives in idle times. Action is the antidote to fear.

Be driven by vision, not emotion. Ask yourself, "Based on where I want to be (and where I want our team to be) in 1/3/5 years, what does this moment require of me?" It's not about what's easier now, it's about what gets you closer to where you want to be.

Resilience doesnโ€™t come from avoiding the struggle. Grit doesnโ€™t come from avoiding the struggle. Strength doesnโ€™t come from avoiding the struggle. Youโ€™ll never learn to deal with hard things if you keep avoiding them. The only way through it is through it. Lean in. โ›ˆ๏ธ๐Ÿฆฌ

Great leaders simplify. Simplify the message. Simplify the process. Simplify the values. Simplify the vision. Simplify the plan. Simple wins.

Two things you need to drive you through adversity: Purpose: remain anchored to your why Optimism: unwavering belief in yourself and in the vision Hard days/weeks/seasons happen. Learn to handle them well. โ›ˆ๏ธ๐Ÿฆฌ

Every team says they want accountability. But real accountability isnโ€™t easy. Itโ€™s uncomfortable. Itโ€™s inconvenient. It means calling out what you usually ignore. If you want a better cultureโ€ฆ Stop walking past the little things. Start holding the standard every day.
