Blog postWhy You Need to Stop Asking For Permission We’re all guilty of it. Feelings of insecurity creep into even the most self-assured mind. You weren’t always that way. Yet, somehow you find yourself doing it. “No, I couldn’t do that.” You’ve gotten v-e-r-y comfortable in your routine.
You used to be filled with hope and vision. Now you realize that things aren’t what they seemed. So you toe the line. You follow the rules. You lay low, and stay off the radar. You try not to cause your boss -
Blog postHow to Know You’re On the Right Path Two years ago, my Father had come home from the hospital and was settling in for the evening. Leaving his room that night, I kissed him and told him I loved him. He called to me. “Christopher!” I turned, standing in the doorway and replied: “yeah Dad?” He said, “keep up the good work.” I replied, “ok, Dad.”
I sort of chuckled to myself at the absurdity of the comment. No context. A simple directive. I didn’t think much of it and went about my even -
Blog post5 Simple Ways To Make a Powerful First Impression The New York Yankees recently retired Derek Jeter’s number. When I heard the news, I began reminiscing about July 9, 2011, when I had the opportunity to meet the Yankee legend.
It was only hours before Jeter smashed his 3,000th career hit at Yankee Stadium. I was on the field that day because of my father, Adrian Dessi. At the time, Dad was living with ALS–Lou Gehrig’s disease–and was about to throw out the first pitch for the g -
Blog postBy definition entrepreneurs are not quitters. We persevere, push through barriers and succeed. But the most successful know when it’s time to quit.
When I say quit, I don’t mean throwing in the towel and giving up. That’s not it at all. It’s deciding to go a different direction.
We can often get caught up in the well thought-out plan but sometimes, actually, often times, change is good. Those who can embrace the change are the ones who will achieve their goals.
Here’s a se -
Blog postThis Billionaire CEO’s Trick for Managing Emails Will Make You Incredibly Productive Do you feel overwhelmed by the number of emails constantly flooding your inbox? You’re not alone. It’s estimated that 269 billion emails are sent daily. An office worker receives an average of 121 emails per day. Yikes.
Sometimes I feel powerless when I stare at my inbox. It’s a constant game of whack-a-mole. I delete one, three pop up. I respond to three, five more pop up.

Blog post[avia_codeblock_placeholder uid="0"] What No One Tells You About Being An Entrepreneur
I’ve been an entrepreneur for 5 years. After the first 2 years, I was broke. I had spent those first 2 years as an entrepreneur making less money than I had made when I was in my first job out of graduate school. Much less. I had a business partner during those 2 years. I left him. They call it a “dissolution.” I call it a break up.
When the break up was c -
Blog postBefore my column here at INC.com, my portfolio of celebrity conversations was thin. But after a few pieces including high profile entrepreneurs, I began to understand what to expect.
The publicist for the entrepreneur will share key speaking points. Nothing about the conversation is deep or profound. You get the story and you move on.

Blog postThe military has a way of boiling everything down to its most eloquent and basic foundation. They teach newcomers to embrace, what they refer to as “the Suck.”
It’s that threshold where your body breaks down, and your mind takes over. If you’re weak-minded and ready to quit, your body will follow suit. If you’re expecting “the suck.” Then you welcome it. You embrace it. You won’t succumb to it, and you push yourself through it.
Here are 5 steps for embracin -
