He shares how grounding himself in something greater than material success helped him navigate the pressures of leadership. Real-world examples and honest reflections punctuate their discussion—highlighting perseverance, the vital role of mentorship, and the importance of learning from both success and failure.

This time of year I get a lot of financial questions from teachers. We've just gotten through the holiday spending spree, new year's might have inspired some financial goal-setting, and then there's the looming tax deadline in April, so there's a lot to think about.

So today I'm going to do that. I'm going to show you how to find some key numbers on your tax return that can give you powerful insights into your business and personal finances.

In a world where viral trends and overnight successes seem to dominate in this age of “tik-tok stars”, trusting the process of patience and perseverance can feel challenging. Today, Greg and I explore this topic, sharing key mindset strategies to help prioritize both business and life, especially for those at mid-career or the halftime of life, with a focus on the bigger picture.

They emphasize the importance of developing a consistent process, being diligent, and trusting the process rather than chasing overnight success. They use examples from sports and business to illustrate how steady progress often leads to more sustainable success than trying to score big wins all the time. The conversation highlights the value of experience and skills gained over time, especially for those in mid-career or at the "halftime" of life. They advise listeners to develop a plan for reasonable growth, stick to it, and not get distracted by the allure of instant success stories often seen on social media.
