What you do is who you become.

Who do you want to become?

A profoundly reliable person? A prolific writer? A respected healer? A patient listener? A world-class partner? A person who doesn't need "re-tweets" or "likes" in order to feel worthy or important? A helper? A daymaker?

What is it going to take... to become the person that you want to be?

These are some of the questions I've been asking myself lately. Big and intense, I know. Worth considering.

These questions have been inspiring my recent writing a great deal, too.


Here are some recent pieces for you...

- Matt wrote to me to say, "Writing is on my to do list every day, yet I'm still not doing it. What gives?" Great question. It's now... the latest installment of my advice column. Read it here: Why am I not doing that one thing I really want to do?

- Hate talking about how awesome you are? In my latest piece on The Muse, I'm sharing tips on how to talk about your accomplishments without sounding braggy and annoying.

- Ever wonder how I manage my time and organize my day? How I achieve my goals and stay focused? Here's what my world looks like right now. (Note: this piece includes videos of me climbing rock walls and doing pull ups! Rawr! Also: a couple of my new favorite music playlists. Enjoy.)


To everyone who is currently participating in my Unstoppable writing course: you rule the school. I'm loving your emails, kind words and success stories. Keep marching.

(Oh, and for those of you who have asked me, "Will you offer Unstoppable again?" The answer is: Yes, I will. Stay tuned.)

Have a happy, productive weekend.

Love big.
