Maximus here, and today is the day you and I put pen to paper and take dreams from the Sleep realm, to where they belong: into reality! As promised, last week I told you I'd share with you some questions you can ask yourself to get into the mindset of achieving more. I recommend you print these out, grab a pen or pencil and sit down in a quiet plac…

Wanna get more shit done? I do. Want 3 powerful strategies to “create” time and get shit done (GSD) in your day? Okay, but before I do...this is how I think about productivity: Working on tasks is USELESS, Completing tasks is EVERYTHING. That idea speaks to my enduring disdain for “Being Busy.” You probably know plenty of people who are “always bus…

Today I’d like to address some very common thinking you might relate to, what I call “past-thinking.” “It’s not whether you get knocked down; it’s whether you get up.” – Vince Lombardi I think this is also mentioned once or twice in one of the Rocky movies. Many well-intentioned people say to our customer service team: “I’d like to get back to my h…

In 1989, the overall #1 pick in the NFL draft was a young player from UCLA. His 12 seasons as the starting quarterback for a team in Texas was a star-studded career... He was selected to the Pro Bowl six times He led his team to three Super Bowl victories ...and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2006. This man was Troy Aikman. Duri…

I don’t hang out in bars, but I was having a drink with a good friend while I was on a business trip and I literally heard two groups of people more or less say the same thing. Let me paraphrase it. “So I finally got a new client, they wired me $X in my bank, so order anything you want.” What I processed was this: “I’ve been flat broke, but the sec…

Have you ever heard someone talking about “making really good money?” Do you make “good money?” I always crack up when I hear that phrase, because of how subjective this is. $15 an hour is “good money” (a lot) for some, and $150 an hour is “bad money” (not enough), for others. But the hard numbers leave out what I see as the crucial metric: Do you …

Last week’s email was all about how to get better sleep. And a lot of you said you loved the tips… but this week, it hit me: I left something really important out! I purposely didn’t give you one GIANT piece of the puzzle... something that transcends the little tactics--it’s an overarching strategy that counterintuitively impacts the whole process.…

One of the best, yet least-commonly heard pieces of advice I know is this... “If you want to experience a terrific quality of life, remember: you’ll spend almost your entire life in two places: Your BED Your SHOES So don’t bargain shop on either of those items!” One of the most common pitfalls that high achievers make is with their sleep. Are you d…

Are you one of those perfect people who never hits the snooze button, never has a bad attitude or never misses a workout? Really? No complacency? Never been in a rut? If so, you can skip this message… Obviously, nobody is going to skip this message so read on because this email is for you (and especially me)! Since you’re still reading, I’m assumin…

Do you know anyone who doesn’t act their age? Most of us do, and usually it’s a bad thing… not so, with Josephina Monestario, who started bodybuilding at age 59. Instead of following the herd, and letting gravity and time take their toll, Josephina has spent the past 12 years taking care of her body at a level most of us won’t achieve, at any age. …

Last week I shared a Grumpier Old Men clip about a man who drank, smoked and ate copious amounts of bacon… and lived to be 95.Just a reminder to don’t follow that advice. Instead, let’s talk about what you could accomplish… if you could just get “caught up”! These days, so many amazing dreams and big goals die because people spend their lives in mi…

One of my all-time favorite movie lines comes from Grumpier Old Men. In it, Burgess Merideth reveals his “secret” to long life: (Speaking to his son) “Last Thursday I turned 95 years old… and I never exercised a day in my life… every morning I wake up and I smoke a cigarette, and then I eat five strips of bacon, and for lunch I eat a bacon sandwich…

Today’s email is NOT about bodybuilding. It’s not about diet, mindset or goals… and yet, I would argue, this message is more important than any of those things. It’s about suicide. Here’s the story: You know me by now, and you know that my brain (hopefully like yours) is a sponge for wisdom! Recently, I was watching some TED talks and I came across…

Last week I bemoaned the ridiculous level of advertising you and I are barraged with. My goal was simply for you to be aware of what these companies are trying to do: Distract you, derail you, prevent you from completing the mission you are on earth to accomplish. Don’t fall prey! If you truly want to win this battle--and make no mistake, this is w…

I’m constantly amazed by the advertisements shoved in my face. Maybe you can relate? It’s always “Easy to do” this or “Done for You” that… While that might not be appealing to you or I, this lazy, entitled sense of getting maximum stuff for minimum effort, appeals to the bum inside all of us. And the part that makes me sad...is that those ads actua…

Hey {{ first_name|default:'friend' }}! Today I’d like to talk to you about the most critically important element of your life. It’s not your food, your exercise, sleep or even your supplements. It’s water. We can make it for about a month without food, but we’ll be dead within a week without agua... And did you know that if you’re just 1%-2% dehydr…

Hey {{ first_name|default:'friend' }}! Maximus here, and I’ve got good news and bad news in this email. First, let’s get the bad news out of the way. If you’re eating junk food, you’re stunting your crazy growth. Ok, you knew that: junk food is bad, but it tastes soooooo good, right (sometimes)? Here’s the good news: fixing it is easy, when you’ve …

Hey {{ first_name|default:'friend' }}, Today I want to share a way to quickly level up your workouts, and your life... ...but first, a quote: “The man who does not read books has no advantage over the person who can’t read them.” --Mark Twain Now, another quote: “If knowledge is power, reading is a SUPER-power.” This came from Jim Kwik, who went on…

In the 2016 summer Olympic games in Rio, Damir Martin of Croatia and Mahé Drysdale of New Zealand found themselves literally NECK AND NECK rowing to the finish line on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Martin was clearly in the lead but in the last 500 meter stretch, Drysdale started making the comeback of a lifetime...inching his way closer and clos…

Maximus here to serve up a cautionary tale, but first...a quick quote from the legendary Gene Hackman. The difference between a hero and a coward is one step sideways. Your life, my life, that dude’s life walking across the street is seeping out of each of us. Dissipating, dissolving, deteriorating, moment by moment. Each day you and I have a choic…

Every day, week, month, it seems there are more and more things pressing in, vying for my attention. Trying to wrest my focus and steal my time. Everyone around me seems to be repeating, “I’m so busy, I’m so busy.” This is a load of BS. And busy is for the birds. Derek Sivers (you know, the guy who created CD Baby) talks about the idea that “busy” …

Life coach Brooke Castillo has a term for procrastinating I absolutely love… “Buffering.” She defines it as the things we do to avoid feeling pain. One example Brooke uses to describe this process is this: “say you come into a room, flip on the light, and discover it’s an absolute mess--a disaster. The natural thing to do is to turn the light back …

I happen to know a guy who survived a death sentence. Literally, a living hell. Jesse had been going through a bad patch in life, and got caught up in addiction, and the lifestyle of dealing drugs... In Asia. Bangkok, Thailand. For the uninitiated, dealing drugs is bad, but in Asia? Getting caught, in most Southeast countries can mean being execute…

Welcome back. Maximus here with what might be the most counterintuitive success secret I’ve ever learned… And if you’re paying attention, you’ll remember last week I promised to tell you how to improve anything and everything you apply this to, by 68%. So here’s what you do: STEP #1: Just find a ONE PERCENT improvement, over last week. Simple, righ…
