What's good, A:R Nation?!

I hope you're doing well.

The sun's been out the last couple of days here in NYC, and people - myself included - are being tempted to forget quarantine and enjoy the beautiful weather.

With news headlines sharing that some places are already moving towards reopening, there's a call for things to "return to normal."

While I've been feeling for a while now that I want changes in my life, that sentiment has become super prominent right now, during quarantine life.

As a result of talks with people in my life, including my family, friend, girlfriend, mastermind group, etc., I've realized that I want to start and run a new kind of business - and scale back my operations as a lawyer.

My girlfriend recently attended a virtual summit that was hosted by Rachel Hollis and Dave Hollis.

She shared with me that there were some pretty powerful conversations about this thing, that if you learn how to marshal and use this one thing, you can achieve anything in your life.

What is this one thing?

Courage.

I'll paraphrase a quote that she shared with me: "Everything that you don't have in your life that you want exists outside of your comfort zone."

I agree with that, and felt that way for some time.

It got me to thinking about what I'm doing.

I'm looking to pivot into some new endeavors, one of them being online marketing.

I recently posted something, and almost immediately, my brother sent me a text asking if I'm alright.

It's almost as if when we act in courage, and we step beyond our comfort zones, you can expect judgment, resentment, ridicule.

I invite you to ask yourself whether there are things that you want in your life, or whether you wish your life were different.

If the answer is yes, where does that life that you wish you had exist? I'll bet you a smile that it exists in a place where only courage can take you - beyond your comfort zone.

Imagine where you could be in a short period of time if each and every day, you took some uncomfortable but courageous steps outside of your comfort zone in service of your goals and dreams.

Anything and everything we could want would be ours.

Bet on yourself. This is the Adulthood: Revisited Podcast.

Adulthood: Revisited

I dunno about y'all, but in the last few years I've been trying to figure who I am.

I've asked myself who am I as a person, as a man, as a partner in relationship, who am I in business.

I wonder if who I am is really who I want to be

If not, when did it change, and what can I do to tap into who I really want to be.

If you've asked yourself questions like these, then I invite you to join me on this journey, Adulthood: Revisited.
