Mo Mass…

Recently, Kitty esteemed me during BTL band practice. She did this matter of factly in the way only she can. She had listened to the why behind my decision to say no more clients so I can, someday, say yes to building more BTL Builders. She understood clearly where this was headed – I’m modeling the way to living out the last element of our framework. You know the 12 8 4 powered by 2.

The 12 Essentials of Personal Excellence is where it starts. You working on you. The 8 Essentials of Leading Teams follows by design. As you lead yourself with excellence there will be the opportunity to influence teams, your teams. As you master the art of living and leading, the 4 is waiting in the wings. The 4 Essentials of Leading Leaders is where legacy lives. Masters reproduce better masters. Mass attracts mass, remember, is a law of physics…

So, Kitty’s bomb was ccd magic. She told me simply and sharply. “Chet, you are moving from No Mas to Mo Mass.” She is right. So, friend, you might attract more mass by saying no to really good stuff. Maybe, you need to say no more and sit a bit longer in the void. The next expression often appears when you stop chasing more of what you already know. It takes a commitment of no mo to get to mo mass. Maybe Bono was right – “You have to reject one expression of the band, FIRST, before you get to the next expression. And in between you have nothing. You have to risk it ALL.”

It feels really good to know what I’m chasing and why. I’m chasing excellence. I’m chasing mo mass by building into builders, especially the next generation of BTL Builders. I’m chasing excellence my way. You?

Live hard. Love harder…
