I've fallen into the trap of “trying super hard” many, many times thinking that if I try hard enough I can speed up the process. (That's false.)The process MUST be honored…whether you wanna or not. So instead of massive efforts, focus on consistent routines and habits that will take you from here to there.For more or to sign up for my 3-2-1 newsletter, visit: http://www.michaelehenson.com/3-2-1Connect on Instagram here:https://www.instagram.com/michaelehenson/

“The beginning is painful, the middle is messy, and the ending is gorgeous.” If you think about it, why would anyone in their right mind choose to settle for something less? But it happens...

Today, I'm tackling the incredibly controversial topic of yes vs. no.Are you one of those people that says "Yes!" all the time to everything? Welp, this is a show for you.Are you one of those people that says "No!" to people whenever they ask you to do something or help out? (Or delegate it away to someone else to do?) Yup, for you too...Enjoy!

Ever experienced a horrible soda nozzle? They have the potential to ruin your day, right? You're always left with a choice...to take your soda stained clothes to another machine or to completely cover the offending nozzle, fill your cup, and move on with your day.Life is FULL of paradoxes like that - getting closer to the offending nozzle actually HELPS you avoid catastrophe - and the sooner and more completely we recognize the power of paradoxes to show us the way to go, the better off we'll be!
