Definition is the Enemy.

I’m surrounded by walls. Cornered by constraint. Forced into the places you put me. Squeezed into safe shapes. Shoved into polished packages. Sheltered from the power of my own determination. You ask me to aspire but then you question my ambition. You tell me to explain, instead of teaching me to explore. You want me [...]

Price of a Dream.

Categories: #besomebody, Beliefs, Career, Featured, Freestyle, Leadership, Life, Motivation, Principles, Writing

How much should I pay for this dream? I don’t need this house. I need four walls and some peace of mind. I don’t need this car. I need the ride of a lifetime. I don’t need expensive things. I need rich conversation. The material is muted. And mundane. And monotonous. The superficial is stale. [...]

The Fence.

Categories: #besomebody, Beliefs, Business, Career, Fitness, Freestyle, Leadership, Life, Love, Motivation, Principles, Relationships, Writing

Today, I’m building a fence. I’m putting up my walls. I’m lining up every board and stacking up every brick… Piling them high and wide. I’m wrapping my arms around all that I love, and covering the mouth of all that I fear. I’m tightening my grip on potential, and sharpening my words for battle. [...]

The 2013 Anthem.

Categories: #besomebody, Beliefs, Career, Featured, Fitness, Freestyle, Leadership, Life, Love, Motivation, Principles, Writing

This is our year… This our time… This is our defiant declaration that life is too short to watch from a distance …. It’s too fast to witness from afar… This year, we’re in the mix. We’re at the center. Up close and personal with everything that matters. This is the year we delete “tomorrow” [...]

For Newtown.

Categories: #besomebody, Current Events, Leadership, Life, Motivation, Principles

I’m angry. Not at you. Or him. Or them. But at us. How did we let this happen? How did it come this far without us taking to the streets and breaking down the system? Why haven’t we looted every lawmaker and vandalized every bullshit speech? Set fire to false promises. Confronted our own carelessness. [...]

Hurt Me.

Categories: #besomebody, Beliefs, Business, Career, Freestyle, Leadership, Life, Motivation, Writing

Beat me and bruise me. Pound me in my gut. Put your fist through my face and elbow the shit out of my faults. Bloody my nose and break my smile. Give my optimism a black eye. Leave my faith sore and staggered and swollen. Kick me when I fall. Knock the wind out of [...]

I am Senseless.

Categories: #besomebody, Featured, Freestyle, Leadership, Life, Motivation, Writing

I am deaf. I can’t hear the skeptics. I won’t listen to suspicion. The sound of doubt is foreign, and faded. Negativity is noise that goes unnoticed. My ears aren’t pierced by the sting of Disbelief. I am dumb. I don’t speak to surrender. Don’t say a word to defeat. “Give up” and “Give in” [...]

12 Secrets for an Unforgettable 2012.

Categories: #besomebody, Beliefs, Business, Career, Featured, Holiday, Leadership, Life, Love, Motivation, Principles, Relationships, Travel

2011 seems like it lasted forever AND flew by… It moved fast because ambition and energy can’t wait… It was slow because emotion and appreciation take time… But whatever the speed, my 2011 was driven by purpose, passion, and PEOPLE… And for that I’m truly grateful. I’ve never learned as much in my entire life. [...]

I Wonder…

Categories: #besomebody, Beliefs, Featured, Leadership, Life, Love, Motivation, Relationships, Writing

I wonder. I wonder what will happen if I just do it. Take a chance. Make a move I wasn’t supposed to make. Hit when the book says to hold. Raise the stakes. Call my own bluff… and go all in… If I step on the gas instead of slamming the brakes… Ditch the GPS [...]

The Plan.

Categories: #besomebody, Beliefs, Career, Leadership, Love, Motivation, Principles, Relationships

An open door. A forced turn. Missing a flight, but making a connection. Catching a break that breaks too soon. Falling. I’ve learned that even the unforeseen, unwanted, and unpredicted are part of the plan. Most of us go through life with a gallery of hopes, dreams and expectations. We paint pictures in our heads, and we wish, [...]
