Real men don’t need anyone.

That’s the lie most of us were handed early, reinforced quietly, and rewarded socially.

• Independence equals strength
• Handle it yourself
• Don’t need help
• Don’t talk about what’s heavy

I believed it for a long time. If you are reading this line, you may believe(d) it too....

Today at North Point Community Church I was invited to attend th North Point Men’s Breakfast, (THANK YOU John Deushane for thinking of me AND giving me my first Bible this week! Book of John. A good place to start. Suggested by a good friend, Richard Baldwin.)

Today's message landed harder than I expected. Because the issue isn’t faith, age, or stage.--- It’s connection ---

Samer Massad walked the group through some data that silenced the room.
• 61 percent of men say they have no close friends they can truly lean on.

...then added these nuggets of reinforcement...
Loneliness increases your risk of dying early by 45 percent.

That’s higher than:
• Air pollution at 5 percent
• Heavy drinking at 20 percent
• Obesity at 30 percent

This comes from the @Harvard Study of Adult Development, running since 1935 (https://lnkd.in/djdFsnfg)

The longest study of human happiness and health ever conducted and  conclusion is uncomfortable and clear.

The quality of your relationships matters more than achievement, discipline, or success.

This lie survives on pride, fear, and drive.

Pride says you should handle it alone.
Fear says closeness exposes you.
Drive says slowing down to connect makes you weaker.

It doesn’t. Isolation does.

We carry hidden habits, thoughts, and shame like anchors.
They don’t stay neutral. They pull you under quietly. They drown you.

The verse on the screen said it simply:

Iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens the other 
(https://lnkd.in/dbCNq6pm) YouVersion

You need real friends you can trust...

Not audiences. Not admirers.

Friends who aren’t impressed by you.
Friends you don’t try to impress.
People who accept you as you are. Nothing more. Nothing less.

They exist. But you don’t drift into them. 

• You go first.
• You reach out.
• You organize the hangout.
• You answer the hard question first.
• You lead.

Grateful for Samer Massad for presenting this so clearly, and for John Deushane and North Point Community Church for creating a space where this conversation actually happens.

Before you finalize your 2026 strategy, read this.

Most leadership teams are investing in AI.
Very few can clearly explain what is driving measurable value, what is creating risk, and what to prioritize next.

That gap is not technology.
It is leadership, focus, and a real operating plan.

On January 15, I am hosting a free 60 minute executive webinar on what leaders need to do about AI in 2026.

Who it is for
CEOs
COOs
CFOs
CMOs
CTOs
Senior leaders responsible for growth, operations, and transformation

In 60 minutes, you will walk away with
Where AI can create real enterprise value in your business
What to pause, pivot, or double down on
Practical guardrails for responsible use and governance
A clear way to turn scattered experiments into a focused roadmap using my 7 Step AI Readiness Framework

This is not a technical deep dive.
It is a leadership playbook you can take into your next board or leadership meeting.

Bring one live initiative that feels important but uncertain. We will pressure test it live.

You can only solve one problem at a time. Pick one. Focus.

Most people don’t have a capability problem.
They have a targeting problem.

When you try to solve everything at once, you create noise, not progress. Focus is how you turn effort into outcomes.

Here’s how this shows up across life, business, and AI:

Life
When your energy is scattered, your nervous system stays on alert. Clarity comes when you choose the one habit, conversation, or boundary that will stabilize everything else.

Business
Most teams are “busy” because priorities are unclear. Revenue doesn’t grow from doing more. It grows from solving the right bottleneck first: pipeline, conversion, retention, delivery, hiring. Pick the constraint. Fix it. Repeat.

AI
AI isn’t a magic wand. It’s a force multiplier. But only if you start with one clear problem:
Reduce cycle time on a process
Improve response quality
Standardize knowledge
Increase outbound capacity
Automate reporting
Lower risk and compliance exposure

If you try to use AI everywhere at once, you get tools without transformation. The win comes from one use case, one workflow, one measurable outcome.

A simple framework
List your top 3 problems
Choose the one with the highest downstream impact
Define the next action you can complete this week
Measure it. Iterate.

One problem. One target. Full focus.

What’s the one problem you’re solving right now for the biggest impact in your life, your business, or your AI strategy 👇

It’s Friday and I’m going to give you a simple challenge before next week.

If you’re a leader walking into 2026 thinking, “We need to do AI the right way”
Not just faster. Not just cheaper. Not just hype.
But smarter, safer, and built to last
Then you need to be in the room on January 15 at 12 PM EST.

I’m hosting a FREE live webinar for leaders who want AI to drive

Revenue growth
Cost savings
Higher ROI
Better execution across the organization
Without burning out teams or creating chaos

And we’re doing it in a conscious, respected way.
Because the companies that win in 2026 will not treat AI like a shiny tool
They’ll treat it like a partner
And they’ll teach their teams how to work with it responsibly, consistently, long term.

Here’s what you’ll walk away with

A leadership level AI roadmap for 2026
How to pick the few AI bets that actually move the numbers
How to set guardrails without killing innovation
How to train teams so AI becomes leverage, not fear
How to build AI success that compounds quarter after quarter

This is for

CEOs
Founders
COOs
CMOs
CFOs
Department leaders
Anyone responsible for growth, efficiency, and execution

If you want to lose 2026, lead like this.

AI is not a tech trend. It is a leadership advantage. And in 2026, the fastest way to fall behind is to handle AI the way most companies do.

Here are 3 moves that will guarantee failure:

1) Ignore AI because you are busy
Tell yourself you will “circle back” once things calm down.
Spoiler: it will not calm down.

2) Buy tools before you build strategy
Invest in a stack of AI subscriptions with no roadmap, no governance, and no clear use cases.
That is not transformation. That is expensive confusion.

3) Treat AI like a side project
Leave it stuck in pilots with no executive owner, no KPI, and no change management.
You do not need more experiments. You need outcomes.

If you do not want to be part of this list, join me for a free executive webinar:

Thursday, January 15 at 12 PM EST
You will learn how to approach AI in 2026 with clarity, responsibility, and ROI.
