DAILY MINDSET “True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence of the future” – Seneca How often do we rush to finish line? Immediately turning to the next, only to rush once again? The aim is not to ignore the future. Yet when we spend so much time working for the future, we by default ignore the present. Until... it has become the past. All of this can sound mindlessly simple – and it is. Yet we often become so frantically busy planning for the future, th

DAILY MINDSET “Leadership is not about being in charge. Leadership is about taking care of those in your charge.” - Simon Sinek What defines a leader? Is it promotion, titles, or status? We realize that is not the case. We’ve all met others at some point in our lives that were, title wise, on an identical level. Both been students in school, teammates on a sports team, or co-workers in a job. Yet something set them apart. We don’t remember them for what they said or did, but

DAILY MINDSET “As for me, all I know is that I know nothing.” - Socrates A core belief of ours is to “always be a student”. Regardless of age, experience, accomplishments… There is always so much to learn. And if we retain this mindset, it allows us to keep our eyes open for the next improvement. Let’s draw two themes from this: One is that everyone is a teacher. We can learn from every interaction, if only we look for it. Two, that we should challenge our assumptions. When

DAILY MINDSET “If life changes from the outside in, life ends. If life changes from the inside out, life begins.” It’s been said before that external events don’t define us. We 100% believe in that. Going a bit further, we also believe that external events cannot create us. Winning the CrossFit Games is something incredible. A monumental achievement. We won’t discredit that. But… does it change who they are? It can’t. It’s external. There’s no pixy dust on the podium, or some

DAILY MINDSET “Shallow people believe in luck and circumstance. Strong people believe in cause and effect” – Ralph Waldo Emerson We can choose to believe that life is happening to us, or that we are fully in control. We could stand by, and wait for life to happen to us. Or, we can choose to believe that we have a say in our own story. That we are the writers of our own script. Life is a direct reflection of the choices that we make. That the good, bag, ugly, and everything in

DAILY MINDSET “The fact of the matter is that it’s just my opinion.” Benjamin Franklin Have you ever caught yourself saying, “Well the fact of the matter is…”? Sometimes we can be so sure of something, that we forget that it’s actually not a fact. And that it’s truthfully just our opinion. We are a proud, dedicated group. With strong, passionate beliefs. That is an amazing quality, and on the character level, one we do want to cultivate. Yet, there is a tipping point here. We

DAILY MINDSET “One of the most difficult things to give away is kindness. It usually comes back to you.” - Anonymous Science has proven that showing kindness to another elicits one of the most powerful hormonally driven emotions we can feel. But what is even more interesting, is that kindness is contagious. Think back to the last time you saw *someone else* doing something generous. Maybe it was as simple of a gesture as someone holding the door open for an elderly citizen en

DAILY MINDSET “Don’t bunt. Aim out of the ballpark.” – David Oglivy One of the most dangerous things we can do in life: to dream too small. What stops dreamers from dreaming is fear. We can convince ourselves that we don’t have what it takes. That we’re not ready yet. That we’re too young or too old.. This fear, in and of itself, is the dream killer. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy from that point forward, as we can’t accomplish what we can’t believe. It doesn’t start with a
