be careful who you take advice from

I was listening to a podcast yesterday, I’m pretty sure it was Chase Jarvis on Jay Clouse’s Creator Science (I often listen to multiple shows a day) and Chase said something that really stood out to me. He shared a similar sentiment as I did in my Keep Pursuing series last fall about the guidance and advice we get from our loved ones; they place their limitations, fears, and objections on us, not because they want to see us unhappy but because they love us and are afraid to see us fail, get hurt, or be disappointed. They think they are helping us by keeping us from pursuing the life we want to live, but really they are extending the chain of individuals who never give their Selves the chance to live out their dreams and realize their purpose. “And yet, we end up taking advice not from people who are living our dreams. We end up taking advice from people who have given up on theirs.”
- Chase Jarvis
Man, that quote is so powerful and real. Who are you taking advice from as you pursue your authentic life? See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC |

Armed with just a map and a full tank of gas, the father and son began their trip. After a couple of hours on the road, they arrived at a fork in the road—a fork that wasn’t on their map. Confused by the...
As I mentioned in yesterday’s Note, I started the day being lazy–laying on the couch, binge-watching Starting Five on Netflix, and researching different breathwork trainings. My lazy Sunday didn’t stop there. I did some reading.I watched some football.I took a couple of short naps.I cut the backyard.I watched two movies on the couch with Silas in the evening. I didn’t think about work, I didn’t think about writing anything, and I didn’t feel the need to be on my computer planning for the...
I’ve spent a large chunk of this morning being “lazy,” binge-watching Starting Five on Netflix, getting ideas out of my head and into Notion, and researching different breathwork training programs--it's been extremely refreshing being lazy for a bit. Now isn’t the time, but in the next year, I’d like to start a program to become a breathwork facilitator to use in my LifeDesign+ work and even do small group sessions. I know that becoming a great facilitator will require me to learn different...
