Sages, saints and the great productives of the world have understood that the time before the light of day brings with it a form of magic.We are more open to new ideas, more connected with our natural power and more available to our primitive wisdom.Yes—it’s a messy, noisy and complex age we inhabit.And yet, at 5 AM, you still have the opportunity to savour the luxury of silence, stillness and you at your best.Each—and every—day.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

The best influencers (and elite athletes, artists and inventors) are boring. They are all about Mundanity: repeating the same few habits every single day (whether they feel like performing them or not) until these consistent practices incrementally morph into a tsunami of victory. Success lies in a masterful consistency around the fundamentals (please read that thrice). Don’t complicate things. Just repeat a few routines staggeringly well.

Peak creativity occurs by relaxing into the two main seasons of high-productivity. If you’re serious about becoming a virtuoso, balance periods of being in the world with periods in the wilderness of isolation, contemplation, reflection and renewal.Such times are not a waste. Actually, it’s essential to the incubation of the next-level insights that will cause you to own your game. And for protecting the assets of genius that will allow you to sustain your mastery over the coming decades.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

I’ve never subscribed to the “hustle and grind” philosophy that makes us feel guilty if we’re not working 24/7/365 and though I’ve done my best to inspire my readers and clients to aim for legendary and do their masterwork I’ve also taught that time for rest, regeneration and doing nothing is also profoundly important. Having said this, work matters. And working hard is wise. Work gives us deep meaning (if we make the time to look for it), frees us from boredom and keeps us younger. Your work offers you the chance to help and serve the people that you are paid to help and serve.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

To have the weight of the world on your shoulders and the stress of excellent opportunities and the livelihoods of many (or a few) within your responsibility isn’t easy. Yet it truly is a gift. You wouldn’t have this pressure if you didn’t also have the associated talent to handle it. Victims face tough times and grow smaller. Real leaders and the best among us meet challenge—and rise into their primal bigness. Yes, they feel scared or insecure or confused. Yet, they continue, understanding that hardship is the fire that makes heroes real.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

As we advance through a lifetime, it’s ever so easy to harden our attitudes and calcify our mindsets. We begin to fall in love with our closely cherished truths and believe that the way we see things is the way things are. Thinking the way you see the world is the way the world (or business, society or life) actually is is super dangerous. “Why Robin?” you wonder. …because you’ll stop listening to new ideas.…because you’ll lose your gift of humility.…because you’ll be defending.…because you’ll stagnate, not innovate. The one habit that changed my life is the habit of lifelong learning. Yes, this is a very simple insight, yet it’s truthful. All I’m saying and suggesting and perhaps even pleading for you to remember is that a commitment to daily growth is your absolute superpower. My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

Yes, perfectionism isn’t healthy. Got you on that point. Yet, here’s the reality based on my over 30 years in the trenches with famous CEOs, billionaires, NBA superstars and music icons: the great ones are all obsessive. They cannot bear being mediocre. They cannot live with stagnating at ordinary. They have uncontainable hunger to exploit their potential, bring on mastery and turn their entire field on its head.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

While the majority does long for pure success, real greatness and their place at the table of genius, they refuse to install the beliefs, run the routines, do the work and live the days that would make so much of their readily observable reality.Those who will win + shine + own the game also love ideas and information that push their limits. They ache to expand. They devote to ascension. They hunger for the heroic. They want to spend the rest of their lives on pursuits that are meaningful. And of service to others. While they exploit their potential on the road to mastery.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

Let me gently remind you of a truth that too many good souls are forgetting: distraction is the enemy of mastery. The giants of history—from Leonardo da Vinci to Mahatma Gandhi to Hedy Lamarr—were not people who dabbled. They were people who focused. Monomaniacally.They carved out sacred spaces of solitude and isolation to produce their masterwork. They honored their craft with the fullness of their presence.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

We have been programmed to play small. To live within the box society has handcrafted for us. To think, be and do like everyone else. Sad. Scary. This causes heartbreak. We forget all we truly are. We escape into distraction and diversion. We neglect our purpose. We die, while still alive. But to unfear.  To do the things that scare us and haunt us and taunt us. To hug the monster and slay the dragon. To me, this is what true success and outright greatness is all about. So allow me to ask you, how will you exploit this day? To walk into the valley of darkness and embrace your limits. To say yes to your usual nos. To do what your weakest told your finest self was impossible. To stand in the sunlight of your courage, conviction and heroism. This is what my latest book The Wealth Money Can’t Buy is all about. Real wealth versus fake success. True winning versus spending your life climbing a mountain, only to find out at the end that it was the wrong one.

Each time you allow your phone to interrupt you, you weaken your focus. Each moment you spend scrolling through someone else’s life is a moment stolen from building your own. The cost of distraction is not just time—it’s your dreams, your genius, your legacy.The world doesn’t need more people chasing likes or watching others live. It needs you—fully alive, fully engaged, doing work that matters. Napoleon Bonaparte said, “The battlefield is the mind.” Win the war against distraction, and you sort of win everything.So, take back control. Schedule your work and protect it like your life depends on it—because it does.
