When my wife and I decided to start our family,
our lives went from being carefree cuddle bugs…
To starting two new companies…
Moving house twice in a two-year period…
And getting pregnant with our first child…
Only to find three months after giving birth, we were pregnant with the second one.

It was a whirlwind.
But here’s the one thing we realized during this chaotic time:
The need for synchronization and communication within our family.
Without it, we found ourselves feeling disconnected and overwhelmed.

If you feel like you're constantly running but not moving forward…
Here’s why:
The problem isn't lack of time…
It's direction and energy.
When I first got started trying to build a business I wasn't disciplined like I am today.
I used to be the guy who would work a little bit, feel really good about myself, and then take a couple of hours off.
If I worked really well in the morning, I would take the rest of the day off.
I didn't have a strategy.
So after I started my company Spheric at age 24, I started reading books.
And it was a book called Getting Things Done by David Allen that changed EVERYTHING for me.
Now the way I work is completely different.
I have a place for all the crazy distractions that come into my world so I can be incredibly productive.
So in today's episode, I break down my 36-hour week as a multimillionaire in four steps to help you design your perfect week.

You can build a million-dollar company without grinding yourself into the ground...
I often meet founders stuck in this frame of mind.
They put a limit on what they think is possible because they’re scared.

Yet despite her huge win she started to feel nervous about what would happen if the business kept growing…
Fearing it might become too overwhelming, she put a cap on her growth.

Last week, I had an amazing conversation with Tony, a total rockstar entrepreneur, pulling in a whopping $30M+ annually.
But here's the thing, despite all that monetary success, there was this lingering feeling, this void in Tony's soul, like something was missing.
