Happy Monday!

Today, we are going to pause on the Adversity is Your Advantage implementation framework.

Instead, I want to honor the day.

Here in the States, it’s Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

It’s a day to honor our fallen heroes. 

Yes, I hope you enjoy the day off from work with some family time. 

However, I hope you don’t forget the meaning of it.

The hard truth about life?

Freedom is not free.

It needs to be protected.

Throughout history, the lack of freedom is the norm, not the exception.

This is what today, we honor the men and women who lost their lives defending the freedom we enjoy.

My humble request and mindset message is not to let their adversity, which is our advantage, go in vain.

Happy Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

Happy Monday!

We learned the 4 moves on how to Turn Adversity Into Your Advantage.

And that the 2nd part is to “Endure it.”

Enduring it requires growth.

Within this growth phase, 3 practices have helped me and will do the same for you.

The first?

Cultivate Curiosity

Curiosity is the starting point of all growth.

It begins when we stop pretending we know everything—and start asking:

• What don’t I know here?
• What’s working, and what’s not?
• What challenges am I still avoiding?
• Who could help me get better?

In my case, I got curious about alcoholism back in 2016 after a horrible experience that took my best friend away.

And that curiosity showed me what needed to change.

The problem?

I didn’t know how to do it.

The solution?

I got curious for a solution, which led me to the next move that I will share next week.

Happy Monday!

We learned the 4 moves on how to Turn Adversity Into Your Advantage.

Today, I’m going to hit on #2:

Endure it!

How do you do this?

Once you’ve embraced the truth, now comes the real test:

Can you stay in it long enough to grow through it?

This is where self-mastery is forged.

This is where self-leadership begins.

Because once you’ve got that burn, your anti-mission that gives you a paradigm shift, you’re holding something powerful:

Discipline.

And that’s what allows you to endure.

Enduring doesn’t mean surviving.

It means choosing challenges. 

Proactively.

It means picking up the adversity you’ve been ignoring and saying:

“I’m coming for you this time.”

That’s how strength is built.

This isn’t a one-time step—it’s a loop.

The more you grow, the more you can handle.

And the more you handle, the more you’re able to lead.

So, how do you build endurance?

There are 3 practices I use again and again.

I will share them next week!

Happy Monday!

Last week, we learned the 4 moves on how to Turn Adversity Into Your Advantage.

Today, I’m going to hit on #1:

Embrace It!

How do you do this?

To truly change, you must hit rock bottom.

Sads bad, which it is.

However, rock bottom is a gift.

It doesn’t feel like it in the moment, but it’s the catalyst for change.

The starting point of turning adversity into your advantage…

Is to be willing to actually feel it.

To stop hovering, avoiding, explaining, or defending—and finally say:

“Enough is enough.”

Here’s what I’ve learned:

You don’t change when it gets hard.

You change when it gets too hard.

When you hit that moment of internal pain that forces clarity.

And here’s the process I’ve lived:

You hit rock bottom.

That pain creates the burn—your anti-mission.

The thing you’re running from—and the reason you won’t go back.

And then… You can finally surrender the ego.

You stop trying to prove.

You start trying to change.

For me, my self-leadership rock bottom moment came in front of a mirror—when I decided to stop drinking in December of 2016.

That was the burn.

That was the anti-mission:

Break the bloodline of alcoholism.

And from that moment forward, I saw everything differently.

It wasn’t logical.

It was emotional.

And it gave me the fuel I needed to grow.

I finally embraced the truth I’d been avoiding.

And the second I let go of my ego, that’s when the growth loop began.

So ask yourself:

“What change do I already know I need to make… but I’ve been avoiding?”

Because that internal conflict?

That’s your rock bottom whispering.

And when you embrace it, you move from stuck… to free.

Happy Monday!

Check this out..

I’ve spent the last 18 months reflecting on my 4 decades on this planet with a project top of mind.

There’s been plenty of good, bad, and ugly.

With reflection, 1 guiding principle in my life has been to adopt a mindset that adversity is my advantage.

Why?

Because it is.

This mindset has allowed me to turn tragedies into blessings, which is what I want for you!

As I did the work, I broke down the path into 4 distinct moves.

Here they are, and I will break them down in the coming 4 weeks so you can do the same. 

1. Embrace Adversity – Rock Bottom is a gift. It’s the catalyst for change.
2. Endure Adversity – Self Mastery creates growth and the ability to endure.
3. Reflect on Adversity –  Reflection happens after every growth loop, which creates perspective.
4. Reframe Adversity – With growth and reflection, you can connect the dots and reframe your adversity as your advantage.
