Welcome to Your 444 Newsletter!

Where priorities, presence, and personal power collide.

Today’s topic?
The four days every entrepreneur needs if they want to win in business and life.

Because if you’re running around doing everything for everyone else...
While your own life sits on the back burner...
It’s only a matter of time before it all breaks.

Here’s how I keep that from happening.

4 Days to Anchor Your Life and Business

1. No-Agenda Day
   No meetings. No calls. No to-do list. Just space to think and breathe.
   This is where big ideas show up.

2. Reconnection Day
   Old friends. Real conversations. FaceTime with people who matter.
   If you're not making time for them, you’re losing them.

3. Get-Your-Head-Right Day
   Could be the gym. Could be journaling. Could be checking the numbers.
   But something has to keep your mind sharp and grounded.

4. Memory-Making Day
   Plan something your kids or your partner will never forget.
   It’s not about cost. It’s about effort and surprise. That’s what sticks.

4 Lessons I’ve Learned

1. The busiest days make the least impact.
   Running around all day doesn’t mean you got anything important done. Clarity beats chaos.

2. If you don’t schedule it, it won’t happen.
   Blocking off one day a month can change everything. But only if you actually commit.

3. Success without connection is a scam.
   What’s the point of building wealth if your kids grow up not knowing you? Or your marriage falls apart in the process?

4. Recharging isn’t a luxury. It’s a strategy.
   Burned-out operators make dumb decisions. Recharged operators build empires.

4 Challenges for You This Week

1. Pick your No-Agenda day.
   Choose the date. Block it now. Let nothing and no one take it from you.

2. Reach out to someone who matters.
   Could be your mom. Could be your mentor. Could be your old business partner. Call, text, or send a voice memo.

3. Take a pulse check.
   How are you doing? Not your business. Not your team. You. Be honest.

4. Plan one memory-maker.
   Pick something meaningful and surprising. Doesn’t have to be expensive. Just has to be intentional.

You don’t need more time.
You need more control over the time you already have.

And when you own your calendar, you own your future.

Hit reply and tell me — which of these do you already do?
Or which one do you need to start?

You’re one choice away from living a better life.
