About this episode

When You’re 90% There, You’re Only 50% Done: Are You Ready for What’s Next?

Most people think getting to the top 10% is the finish line—but here’s the truth: when you’re 90% there, you’re only halfway done. The climb to your next level isn’t about coasting on momentum; it’s about realizing that what got you here won’t get you there. Today, we’re talking about the habits, standards, and vision you’ll need to break through that final barrier and step into the next version of yourself.


In this episode, I’m challenging you to audit your dream. Is it still your dream, or is it a leftover goal from a past version of you? Dreams need to evolve as you grow, and your vision needs to match the season you’re in. We’ll also talk about the difference between fun goals and fulfilling goals, and why chasing a dream that doesn’t nurture your soul will always leave you empty.


I’ll share the power of updating your standards—not just your goals. Goals are targets, but standards are the rules you live by. And if you’re not where you want to be, it’s not because your goals aren’t good enough—it’s because your standards aren’t strong enough. You’ll also hear why clarity is everything and how writing down your vision with specificity can quadruple your chances of success.

Here’s what you’ll take away:

  • Why 90% done means you’re only 50% finished.
  • The difference between fun dreams and fulfilling dreams.
  • How to audit your goals and create a clear, updated vision.
  • The power of specific standards in achieving your goals.
  • Why writing down your dream creates unstoppable momentum.


You weren’t born to settle, and you weren’t born to stop climbing just because you’ve reached a comfortable peak. You were born to do something great with your life. So grab the pen, rewrite your vision, and let’s make this next season the one where you step fully into your purpose.

It’s your time—don’t leave this life with any chapters unwritten. Let’s go!
