Summary

In today's episode, I break down how to prioritize the most important aspects of life and business while eliminating overwhelm and procrastination. I share why making certain behaviors—like sleep, health, family time, and financial discipline—non-negotiable removes the stress of decision-making and creates exponential success. I also explain how understanding time, circumstances, and energy can help maximize productivity and make prioritization effortless. Plus, I discuss the importance of studying relativity, maintaining the right frequency, and building a community that supports growth.
