The four factors can determine your success

The key to a personal brand isn't the "what" or "how" of what we do. When we build on this we blend in with everyone else.  The key to standing out is discovering our "Why?"  Our "why" is our purpose, it's the thing that truly drives us in everything that we do. Here are two things I do with clients to help them discover their "Why?" 1.  What do you want to be known for when you're 70 years old? 2.  What did you like and dislike about each job that you've had? In the middle of that, mixed in with your strengths is your "Why?"     Ready to turn your purpose into a platform?Let's Talk! Welcome to the Onward Creatives podcast.

What are you building during COVID?

We assume that failure is the #1 one thing keeping us from success.  It's not.  The biggest preventer of success is not starting.  So many of us have an idea, have a moment of clarity, we hear an idea that captures our imagination.....but then we fail to launch.  Don't let this keep you from your ideal life.   Are you ready to get started?Let's Talk!

The most important question you'll ever ask

There's no Waze for life, I wish there was.  Sometimes we realize that the path we're on isn't the right one and it's time for a redirect.  It doesn't mean we change the destination, simply the path.   Are you ready to discover your greatness?Let's Talk!

Let's talk about redirecting

Life is a marathon not a sprint.  The hustle is vital to seeing our ideas become a reality.  It's normal to feel tired, it's normal to pass out when your head hits the pillow.  But sometimes we get weary, spent, running on fumes and when we do, we need to pause the hustle. If you're tired, take a nap and keep going.  If you're running on fumes, pause the hustle.  It's ok to walk mile 4 so you can run mile 5.  So if you need the break, take it.  We'll be waiting for you when you jump back in.     Are you ready to discover your greatness?Let's Talk!

Sometimes you have to pause the hustle

Walt Disney is known for the empire built in his name, but it wasn't always that way.  He struggled throughout the 1920's only to have his largest character, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, stolen from him.  Soon after he created the legendary Mickey Mouse.  But even that wasn't easy as over 300 bankers told him now before someone would finally fund his project. A lot of you are struggling and 2020 has thrown you substantial curve balls.  You can't give up because often times your greatest success comes from your darkest season.   Are you ready to discover your greatness?Let's Talk!

You have to keep going!

If I could hop in a Delorean and travel back in time (every one knows those are the best time machines) I would go back to when I was 18.  I was much thinner but clueless about so many things.  If I could go back I would tell 18 year old Jack to do these three things: 1.  Discover yourself.  Study your personality, your strengths, figure out how you're wired and own it.   2. Write out your 70 year old story.  I've always run hard, but for a while I had no destination in mind.  I wish I would have taken the time to discover what really mattered to me. 3. Start creating.  A few powerful things happen when you consistently create content: you fine tune your own point of view, you become more confident in your own skin, and you build a network of people who already believe in you.   Are you ready to discover your greatness?Let's Talk!
