We are a people of principle and honor...

This wonderful full-page ad is running in newspapers today. I clipped this one from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

THIS is the USA that I am proud to be a citizen of.

It was paid for by Christy Walton, widow of one of Sam Walton's sons.

Hebrew by Inbal

Everything I’ve wanted—I went after.

Moved countries? Done.
Took a leap for love? Leapt.
Reinvented myself twice? Built my own roadmap.
Built my business? Showed up daily, made it real.

Now, another move—this time within the U.S.—intentional, purposeful, the next step forward.

Because movement is life. Growth comes from action.

Same with learning Hebrew. It won’t just happen. Commit. Show up. Push through.

If you want to truly speak, read, and write Hebrew—not just collect words—take action. I’ll guide you every step of the way.

"Whatever it takes. That has to be your mindset." - Futurist Jim Carroll

Many people seem to be engineered to give up too easily. Pack it in. Move on before the hard work. Never give what it takes. Abandon the effort. Never do what it takes.

The question is - why?

People seem to understand what success requires, yet consistently fail to take the necessary actions.

What's behind this attitude? 

Comfortable complacency. Too many get trapped in what I call the "good enough zone" - where they're just comfortable enough to resist real change, but not successful enough to thrive. This dangerous complacency is like a slow-acting poison in today's rapid-change environment.

A "not-my-problem' attitude. Too many people see the need for change but respond with "not my department" or "not my responsibility." This abandonment of responsibility creates a paradox: everyone sees the problem, but no one takes action.

Fear is the default setting. People are too scared to move and choose inaction as a strategy, mistaking it for prudence. But here's the reality: in 2025, the risk of doing nothing far outweighs the risk of action.

A lack of confidence. A lot of people have convinced themselves they can't adapt or master new realities. They've created their glass ceilings, limiting their potential before even trying.

Here's the stark reality: Success requires more than just knowing what to do - it demands the courage to do it. You need to move beyond understanding to action, beyond planning to execution, beyond fear to calculated risk-taking.

Here's the thought you need to plant in your mind - the future doesn't belong to the smartest or the strongest - it belongs to those willing to do whatever it takes to succeed.

So how do you do that?

Here's my list.

**#Persistence** **#Innovation** **#Growth** **#Action** **#Resilience** **#Speed** **#Commitment** **#Excellence** **#Fearless** **#Breakthrough**

Daily Inspiration: "Do the hard things" - Futurist Jim Carroll

How many times do you say to yourself, "I'll do the easy things first!"

And then you just keep doing the easy things over and over again, always avoiding the hard stuff.

And you never make any progress - because at some point or other, you have to do the hard things.

What if you did the hard things first?

What if you put in the work? Took the effort? Invested your time in difficult things?

Developed your true grit?

Someone commented to me about 'doing the hard work' in the context of my post the other day about 'proving them wrong' and stopping making decisions based on denial.

They commented that neither of these things will work - unless you put in the hard work. That's true!

Moving forward is all about taking responsibility - I've written a lot about the fact that to successfully move forward into tomorrow, you need to stop making excuses and start taking responsibility for your actions and decisions.

This means confronting difficult situations head-on and acknowledging that you are the one who has the power to change your circumstances. That involves hard work because you are manufacturing solutions rather than dwelling on problems - and it's not always easy to do that.

The starting point, of course, is to make the decisions that lead you into action.

Stop making excuses - start taking action!
