Balance is a word we often hear as if it’s something we can achieve with perfect equality across all areas of life.

But true balance is more dynamic.

It’s about recognizing that some weeks, your personal life may need to take priority, while other weeks, work will demand more attention—and that’s perfectly fine.

The key is understanding your priorities and adjusting accordingly.

This week, my focus has leaned more toward work than home, and I’ve accepted that.

We can’t be everything to everyone at all times, but we can create space for what matters most in each moment.

" You will never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine."
- Darren Hardy

Are you looking to create change in your life?

Are you working towards that change consistently?

You will not see the results you want unless you create the plan and space for the change.

For example, if you want to learn a new skill, set aside at a minimum 10 minutes a day to work towards it. This time should not be flexible.

Want to learn how I can help you? Send me a message and let's connect!

Today, we pause to honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001. We remember the bravery of first responders, the strength of survivors, and the resilience of a nation united in the face of tragedy.

Have you ever noticed that when you buy a new (or new-to-you) car, suddenly, it seems like they’re everywhere? Yet before, you hardly noticed them?

This phenomenon shows us that we find what we look for.

Your thoughts are incredibly powerful. They can either lift you up or bring you down—so choose them wisely.

When you start to think positively and focus on the good around you, you’ll find that positivity starts to snowball, impacting everything you touch and do. It’s a cycle that begins with a single thought.

Join us at the Florian Gardens in Eau Claire, WI, on November 15th for Live2Lead! Don’t miss the chance to hear from Chaunté Lowe, an Olympic Medalist, and one of our dynamic speakers with exclusive recorded content. Get inspired and elevate your leadership skills at this impactful event!

If there’s an art to facing obstacles and coming out on top, Chaunté Lowe takes the Gold. The world-renowned high jumper lives to conquer barriers, racking up 4 Olympic Games Appearances, 3 Global Championship medals, 3 American records, and several global accolades. Many are surprised to learn that she achieved most of these accomplishments while also holding the title of “mother of three.”

Leaders, let's inspire and grow together!

What's one impactful lesson you've learned that has shaped your leadership journey?

How has this influenced the path you guide others on?

What are you feeding your mind today?

Choose thoughts that cultivate growth rather than hold you back.

Ask yourself: If you could design the perfect day in any area of your life, what would it look like?

Give yourself the time and space to think, imagine, and tap into your creativity.

In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it’s easy to fall into autopilot mode. But remember, true growth comes from intentional reflection and mindful action.

“Feed the positive, w**d the negative!” -John Gordon

Make sure you join Todd Kuckkahn and myself at Live2Lead to hear more from John Gordon. Thanks again to Eau Claire Area Chamber of Commerce and Menomonie Area Chamber & Visitor Center for their in-kind sponsorships!

Here are some pictures from Leadership Menomonie. I facilitated the Leadership Game and the whole team got involved, shared, and enjoyed their time. Looking forward to the next 9 months with this great group of individuals!

We also had the opportunity to listen to past participants of the program, learn about AI from Aaron Libner Coulee Tech, and participate in a ribbon cutting!

Your mindset is the cornerstone of personal growth. To truly thrive, nurture a positive and growth-oriented mindset every day.

But how do you do that?

Start with awareness. Are you conscious of when negative thoughts creep in? When they do, challenge yourself to reframe them in a positive light.

For growth, focus on your long-term goals. Break them down into smaller, manageable steps. Setting these mini goals allows you to make consistent progress without feeling overwhelmed by the bigger picture. Remember, growth is a journey, and every small step counts.

"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts." – Winston Churchill

If you speak with someone truly successful, they'll likely share stories of countless failures, the times they fell, and how they picked themselves up to try again.

Success is rarely an "overnight" achievement. Instead, it’s the result of persistent effort, learning from mistakes, and pushing through setbacks day after day.

So, what can you challenge yourself with today? What small failure might pave the way for your "overnight success"?

Growth begins when we step out of our comfort zone. What small step can you take today to challenge yourself?

Yesterday, while playing the leadership game, I had a few people who were hesitant to be "center-stage", which is normal for a lot of people. As leaders, there will be times where you will be put on the spot and need to be quick on your feet. This may push you out of your comfort zone, but we can't ask others to do it if we aren't willing to do it ourselves.
