Navigating Life with Principles Over Feelings

In this episode of Growth Notes, Frazier encourages listeners to reflect on their past week by scoring their efforts and emphasizes the fresh start each new week provides. The core discussion centers on the importance of adhering to principles over fluctuating feelings in both life and business. Frazier highlights the steady nature of principles like discipline, integrity, consistency, and accountability, contrasting them with the inconsistency of emotions. He challenges listeners to make decisions based on their principles rather than their moods, to achieve steadier and more consistent results.

Today’s Growth Note centers around a brutal truth:

Time is limited, and every day spent living someone else’s dream is a day you don’t get back.

Frazier unpacks the real meaning behind working with urgency. It’s not about rushing. It’s about refusing to waste time on paths that don’t belong to you. Too many people drift through life, choosing safety, approval, or other people’s opinions over their own purpose. They trade boldness for comfort, and later, they trade dreams for regret.

High performers live with urgency because they understand time is a non-renewable resource. They don’t wait for permission. They don’t follow trends. They move with intention, clarity, and ownership.

Key Takeaways:

• Living for others’ approval is the fastest way to waste your life.
• Time doesn’t pause for fear, doubt, or hesitation.
• Urgency means taking ownership, not rushing.
• You only get one shot. Make sure it’s yours.

Challenge of the Day:

Ask yourself:
Am I living my dream or someone else’s version of it?

If the answer isn’t crystal clear, take action today to realign.
Even one bold step toward your own path is better than 1,000 safe ones on someone else’s.

📅 Live with urgency. Not stress. Not fear. But full ownership of the time you’ve got.

Fresh off a full day of breakthrough coaching calls, Frazier brings a direct message for anyone feeling stuck or playing small:
The safe path doesn’t lead to greatness.

Whether it’s fear, comfort, or the illusion of certainty, many loan officers default to the well-worn, predictable route. But that path may keep you protected—and it may also keep you average.

Today’s Growth Note is a wake-up call. Real growth, innovation, and breakthroughs are found on the unbeaten road, the one that’s uncertain, uncomfortable, and often avoided. The greats you admire didn’t follow the crowd. They bet on themselves. And that’s exactly what you need to start doing.

Key Takeaways:

• The safe path protects you from failure but also from growth.
• Extraordinary results require uncommon choices.
• Most people avoid uncertainty. Winners embrace it.
• You can’t become exceptional by doing what’s expected.

Challenge of the Day:

Take inventory:

• Where in your life or business are you playing it safe?
• What would it look like to take one small step toward the riskier, bolder move?

Remember: Greatness doesn’t come from comfort. It comes from the courage to bet on yourself.

In today’s Growth Note, Frazier hits on a theme that every high-performer eventually faces: how to keep going when the numbers don’t add up, the market feels broken, and logic says give up.

The answer? You need to anchor to something bigger than yourself, whether that’s your purpose, your family, your values, or your faith.

There will be moments when strategy and logic aren’t enough. The business won’t make sense. The progress feels invisible. And that’s exactly when belief becomes your secret weapon. It’s what great leaders, athletes, and entrepreneurs rely on to push through the resistance and uncertainty.

Key Takeaways:

• Logic will fail you during chaos. Belief won’t.
• Anchoring to purpose gives you fuel when results aren’t there.
• Everyone successful believes in something bigger than numbers.
• Doubt is normal. Belief transforms it into determination.

Challenge of the Day:

Ask yourself: What is bigger than me that I can anchor to right now?
Is it your purpose? Your mission? Your family?
Find it. Claim it. Let it guide your actions.

In this powerful Tuesday edition of Growth Notes, Frazier speaks directly to every high-performer who's ever asked, “Is all this effort actually going to pay off?”

Today’s message is about faith in the process and trusting that the dots will connect, even when it feels messy, frustrating, or unclear. Growth rarely makes sense while you’re in it. The grind often feels random. But when you look back—at the lessons, the losses, the connections—you’ll see how everything was preparing you for what’s next.

Frazier reminds you that confidence doesn't come from having all the answers. It comes from doing the work anyway. Breakthroughs don’t happen to the most talented. They happen to the most committed.

Key Takeaways:

• You won’t always see the big picture while you're in it.
• The dots connect looking back, not looking forward.
• Faith in the process keeps you grounded through uncertainty.
• The difference between quitting and breaking through is belief.

Challenge of the Day:

Stop trying to see the whole map.
Take the next step.
Trust the step matters—even if you don't yet see how it fits.

The dots will connect. Just not always on your timeline.

This morning, Frazier delivers a hard truth that needs to be heard.
You don’t need anyone’s permission to succeed.

When you make the decision to chase your goals, everything starts to shift. Your mindset, your schedule, and your actions all change. But here's the reality. Not everyone in your circle will be on board. Some people will encourage you, but others may question your choices or try to pull you back.

Their resistance often has nothing to do with you. It usually stems from fear, jealousy, or discomfort with your growth. If you are not careful, their doubts will become your delays. That’s why protecting your commitment is essential.

Frazier shares the concept of “anchors and propellers” from Green Zone coaching, reminding you to evaluate the people around you and choose your influences wisely.

Key Takeaways:

• Success begins with a clear decision and the discipline to protect it.
• You do not need anyone’s approval to pursue your goals.
• Anchors hold you back. Propellers push you forward.
• Your future is too important to be shaped by someone else's comfort.

Challenge of the Day:

Audit your circle.
Ask yourself:

• Who is helping you move forward?
• Who is holding you back?
• Are you more committed to their comfort or your own success?

Choose your future. Commit fully. Surround yourself with those who lift you, and create distance from anyone who doesn’t.

In this honest Sunday reflection, Frazier pulls back the curtain on what really separates winners from quitters: the ability to take hits and keep moving.

Everyone wants to win, but most people tap out when the losses start piling up. Whether it's deals that fall through, rejections, or weeks of zero momentum, setbacks are the dues you pay on the road to success. But in a social media world obsessed with highlight reels, it’s easy to forget that the real story is built underneath the surface, loss by loss, lesson by lesson.

This episode is a challenge to reframe how you see failure. Losses aren’t proof you’re not cut out for success. They’re the rent you pay for the breakthrough. Every successful person you admire has walked that hard road—and the only question is, will you?

Key Takeaways:

• Everyone loves the trophy, but few embrace the losses it takes to earn it.
• Setbacks aren’t signs to quit, they’re signals to adjust and keep going.
• Your losses are tuition. They teach. They shape. They build you.
• Success isn’t about avoiding losses; it’s about being willing to take them.

Challenge of the Day:

Ask yourself:
“Am I willing to take the hits long enough to earn the win?”
If you’re not, then maybe you don’t actually want it.

If you’re still in the game, still doing the work, you’ve already proven you can. Now reframe your losses so they fuel you, not freeze you.

In this powerful Saturday drop, Frazier delivers a bold and unfiltered message: You can.
But the real question is: Will you?

Too many people blame their lack of progress on external circumstances like the market or a lack of skill. But the truth? Most people haven’t actually made a decision. They haven’t committed. They haven’t decided to do what it takes, even when it’s hard.

Frazier challenges listeners to confront the real reason they’re stuck: not because they can’t, but because they won’t. Won’t commit. Won’t stay consistent. Won’t take action when it’s uncomfortable.

This episode is a wake-up call. You already have the ability; you need the decision. And once that decision is made, everything changes. You stop negotiating with yourself. You stop waiting for the perfect time. You stop living in the “maybe.”

🔥 Key Takeaways:

• You’re not limited by potential; you’re limited by indecision.
• Deciding doesn’t make it easy; it makes quitting no longer an option.
• Commitment starts when comfort ends.
• Success is not about if you can, it’s about if you will.

🎯 Challenge of the Day:

Pick one goal or one habit you’ve been putting off.
Decide right now that you will start today.
Because you can, you just have to decide if you will.

📢 Stay tuned for tomorrow’s Growth Note. Until then… decide, act, and keep moving forward.
