Hey, it’s Mark! Let’s get something straight: Complexity is the gateway to procrastination. (Yep, you might wanna tattoo that one on the inside of your eyelids.) You think you’re being clever when you make things complicated. But what you’re really doing is building the perfect hiding spot for procrastination. When I start coaching someone, the very first thing we tackle is clarity. And here’s the twist: Most people think they’re clear… Until I ask a few questions and they realize they’re wandering through a fog factory. Clarity doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from stripping away what doesn’t matter. It comes from simplicity. Think about it…
Simplicity works because it removes friction. So why are you making your goals, habits, or routines feel like a Rubik’s Cube soaked in peanut butter? Here’s a little analogy: I live in Houston. If I want to get to San Antonio, I just drive west for 3.5 hours. Simple. But if I complicate things? I drive to the airport, fly to Miami… hop to France… skip over to Hong Kong… island hop through Hawaii… glide to San Francisco… …THEN land in San Antonio. I mean—come on! Direct beats complex. So here’s your challenge: Because the clearer your path, the faster your progress. Let’s simplify, clarify, and conquer. Bounce on, 💥 Feeling foggy, frustrated, or stuck in spin-cycle mode?

Your guide to conquering chaos and crushing goals. We all say it. “I’m too busy.” It’s become the adult version of “my dog ate my homework”—a catch-all excuse that feels true… but often hides what’s really going on. Recently, someone told me they were too busy to do something that would’ve taken them less than 30 seconds. (Not work-related. Just a small, daily moment of connection.) That hit me like a brick of burnout. Because let’s be honest: If we’re too busy for 30 seconds of...
