The Principle of ‘The Next Step’
Twenty years ago on an early morning run, I discovered a life-changing principle when I nearly gave up half a mile in. Rather than fixating on distant goals that seemed impossibly far away, I learned to focus on just the next step. This simple shift in perspective not only helped me complete my run but revealed a powerful truth about achieving success in all areas of life.
Messy Adventures and Disorderly Order

‘Analysis paralysis’ keeps us trapped in endless thinking, while fear of failure prevents action. But what if failure isn’t something to avoid but to embrace?

Discover why accepting this reality—rather than fighting or denying it—is the key to genuine growth and transformation, and why the “perfect” life you were made for actually includes imperfection, pain, and struggle.
Ripples: Why That Small Thing You Are Creating Matters
We all have moments of doubt, wondering if we’re making a real difference in a world that celebrates the Richard Bransons and massive social movements. But what if impact isn’t measured in fame, scale, or social media metrics?

Born for Struggle:
Why Going Against the Flow Matters
“Just go with the flow” might be the mantra of the modern age, but what if we’re actually designed to swim against the current? Like salmon fighting upstream—whose struggle nourishes entire ecosystems—our stresses and strivings bring our unique gifts to the surface.
