Recapping this week’s DJH
Mindsets for Success
Levels of a Value Creation
There are different levels of unstoppable, 21st century value creation and job hunting.
Level 1: pitch deck
Level 2: above, plus custom pitch video for one opportunity
Level 3: above, plus custom project
Level 4: above, plus detailed value proposition
Level 5: above, plus offering to work for free
There’s no “right way” to job hunt. Just choices, cause and effect.
What will you do today?
Excellence is a Habit
What type of person do you choose to become?
Your daily habits will show you.
Choose to value excellence in all you do, and follow through on it, with integrity.

Tweet of the Week
You Are the Average of the People You Hang Around
You’re probably aware that “you’re the average of the 5 people you hang around most.”
The question is…do you truly let this idea sink in, and apply any needed action to your life?
It’s easy to quickly dismiss this type of aphorism, and say “yeah yeah, that’s true, maybe one day I’ll have the difficult conversation with the friend that’s holding me back.”
And then you never do it.
And the years go by, and your energy is pulled down, rather than uplifted.
You want to surround yourself with people who uplift you, who share your growth trajectory, who support your Authentic Self, who challenge you.
Do you need to take a close audit of this area of your life?
It may be uncomfortable….but I believe in you. Hug the cactus.
Live regret-free.
