I speak to a lot of busy veterans on a day to day basis 🙌 One of the biggest challenges most veterans face is motivation 😫 Lack of drive, focus and energy 😧 But when I dig deep and find out why, it all becomes clear... You have forgotten 👀 Forgotten one of the key principles that the military taught us... Having fucking MISSION! 🔥 How can you possibly be motivated to get shit done when you don't know why you are doing it?🥴 "but I don't have any goals, I am happy where I am" Bullshit😵 If you didn't have that voice in the back of your head nagging you to do more, to be more then I could understand. . But I know deep down... You aren't done are you?👀 You have more you want to achieve.. But you haven't sat down to figure out what future could look like... If you ONLY TOOK ACTION 💪 A compelling version of yourself.😍 This is something I get all my clients to do who work with me in Ascend. So the next time you are struggling with motivation to do a task... Ask your self why you are doing it in there first place. #motivation #lifestyle #goals #mindset #veteran #performance #personaldevelopment #why #BeTheBestYouCanBe #changeyourlife

Ever thought about this? It's a reminder that both thinkers and doers can teach each other valuable lessons.🧐 It's about finding a balance between thinking and doing. The truly great ones are a mix of both thinkers and doers, blending big ideas with practical action.💯 This applies to everyone. In the military, it's about strategizing but also putting plans into action. It's about being both a thinker and a doer, finding strength in ideas and courage in action.🫂 Ready to start this new chapter with me?

Let it Rain Reflecting on my time in the U.S. Army as a Multiple Launch Rocket System crew member, life was a structured routine of discipline and dedication. From waking up to training and working tirelessly, there was no room for hesitation, only a mindset of "Get it done." Success was the only outcome. This unwavering focus on productivity and perseverance is a valuable lesson that, if adopted by more individuals, could lead to increased success, reduced stress, anxiety, depression, and minimized failure. Embracing a "Get it done" attitude can pave the way for achievement and resilience in any endeavor. #SuccessMindset #Perseverance #Dedication

What do you think when you hear word small. Leaders and creators think differently when they know they are small currently but they Think Big and act with their strength. We have seen number of such incidents in history to current world which was disruptive. Popular of such from history is Battle of Gaugamela (331 BC) between Army of Macedon led by Alexender the Great and Perisian Army led by King Darius III. Even though the Alexender army is smaller in size less than 50,000 persons compared to Perisian army with more than 150,000 persons. Size doesn’t matters being small has advantage of being agile. Bigger army has a disadvantage ineffective mobilisation. Famous word of Sun Tzu’s “Avoid what is strong and attack what is weak”. We know that the Alexender the great took this advantage , withhis effective strategies resulted in glorious victory. Probably in modern scenario just reversing the Sun Tzu’s Words “Avoid your weakness and attack with your strength”. The size doesn’t matters but mental resilience matters. #weekend thoughts #Sizedoesnt matters 😀

Maybe you know something feels "off" since leaving the service, but you don't want to admit it because for the past (XX) years, YOU'VE been the go-to person...the leader, the go-getter, the "fast-burner"...and you think admitting these feelings would question your whole identity. I spent a lot of time in this mindset and then realized I wasn't alone. If any of that resonates, come be a fly on the wall while we talk about (and move to normalize) the myriad of emotions we all feel during transition time. We would love to have you join us.
