Talk isn’t cheap. People are just cheap with their talk.

I’ve never taken on a project I didn’t complete. There’s lots of things I “want” to do that I’m not committed to doing. And there are things I do out of a commitment I make that I don’t “want” to do.

So while my first project went national and was taken on by a billionaire and my second project united a whole department at a University and was acknoledged by President Barack Obama — I was not always the best person for the job.

Everything I’ve ever done I’m sure there are many people who would be more skilled than I am. But here’s the truth — those people didn’t show up to the party, and I did.

So go take on big games that sing to your heart. When you take on games bigger than you’ve ever known you could taken on before — your brain will come up with all the reasons, excuses, justifications, to take you out of the game. You’re never wired for a game bigger than you’ve ever played before. And it’s the people who don’t let that wiring based on what they know to do in their past run their actions in the future aka being run by their commitments and not being a victim/slave to their internal state which lacks freedom (reasons, justifications, feelings, thoughts, opinions, points of views).

What drives me is my commitment to expand freedom on the planet for all people. It will be until my last breath on this Earth.
