This week's Content Inc. is a little different. With the launch of my new book Burn the Playbook right around the corner, I wanted to share something I rarely talk about... the "little things" that made the biggest difference in my career.

These aren't flashy moves. They're small, repeatable habits that paved the way for everything else:

  • Writing down financial goals and reviewing them daily

  • Getting on the same page with my wife from the very beginning

  • Building community through a single non-profit cause

  • Doing the uncomfortable things...introducing myself, going to the event, investing in new skills

  • Creating something every day (even if it's just a sentence)

  • Sending thank-you notes and always following up

  • Asking my network how I could help them

  • Leading with service first

Individually, they seem minor. But together, they created the foundation for every big success I've had.

If this resonates, you'll find more like it in my new book Burn the Playbook.  I'd love your support in spreading the word.
