What keeps you from high levels of success in your life and business?

I think many times it is a lack of confidence. Do you know how to be more confident - especially in business? 

Is it a lack of ability or desire? I don't think so.

As a life and business coach I see day after day men with more than enough ability and desire to be as successful as they want. Yet they still feel so far from achieving their dreams.

Have you taken the time to imagine what the American Dream is for you?

• You wake up At 5 AM when the alarm sounds. Feeling like you just went to bed, you hit the snooze twice before dragging yourself to the shower.
• It is a performance worthy of the circus. Balancing your scalding hot coffee and breakfast bar as you navigate your car through the busy freeway. Not quite the start of the day you were hoping for.

I'll get to that later!

Recently, I took a day off to Kayak down the Caney Fork River with 8 of my buddies. Fishing was pretty lousy, but the company was amazing. What I thought was going to be a trip about fishing and making memories ended up being a trip learning about finding balance in life. It was so great to get caught up with everyone again. The business man in me enjoyed hearing how a couple of my friends made a killing with the recent sale of their companies.

I’m not sure what you said, I only know what I heard.

Are you so busy you can’t slow down enough to understand what your wife is saying? Are you too quick to accuse your wife of being a “nag” when in reality she is just following up on something you promised you would take care of?
