Monthly Mindset, December 2021: EOY Wrap
Hand up - ya boy has been overwhelmed the last month. I was operating at full-capacity in an attempt to survive & advance every hour. Not day. Not week. Not month. I was in a state of pure reaction with merely a dash or proactivity. I’ve owed you a monthly mindset but for my own well-being, I had to hedge and instead provide an end-of-year note from yours truly.

Monthly Mindset, November 2021: Appreciation
All throughout October, I believed this month would be all about acceleration. If you recall, we were all gas no brakes, deeply entrenched in the New York of old with bourbon often in hand. Barry and I agree that when you’re “winning” or experiencing a stretch of positivity; you have to ride the wave. You act with instinct and never over-calculate. One false step would thrust you out of that current and nobody wants to abandon the runner’s high.
