Our Story

Monumental Living was born with the simple mission to help as many people as possible live their most monumental lives.

 Monumental Living grew out of the need to develop focus and battle distraction.  We are bombarded with interruptions throughout our day, most coming from the phones, computers and other electronic devices that saturate our daily lives.  The ability for constant connection has disconnected us from our most powerful tool - Focus.  Our products are specifically designed to create the focus you need to plan and live your most monumental life.

For the past 42 years I have been studying life.  In the early years, my studies were not very rigorous.  They mainly included playing in creeks, building forts and riding a bicycle.  As I entered into college, the question of “What is my purpose in my life?” became more pressing and less clear.  Being at an institution of higher learning led me to believe that formal education would provide the answers I seeked.  This led to an undergraduate degree and two advanced degrees and the question still remained.  

In 2007 I was introduced to Larry Kendall,  who became a mentor, my first guide on the journey of answering the question of “What is my life’s purpose?”  I had literally spent years of my life in a classroom, but I was learning so many critical concepts for the first time.  Through his course, Ninja Selling, Larry taught us about the power of the mind, the importance of setting goals, and how if you have the discipline to do the daily, weekly and monthly tasks you need to do to be successful in your life and your business, then you will be successful in both.  Larry Kendall and his course, Ninja Selling, introduced me to the broad field of “Personal Development” and I dove deep into this new world.  I had been trained as a scientist, in a world of statistics and literature reviews, and this taught me to look for patterns in data.  Gradually some broad patterns between all of these speakers and authors began to emerge.

I began to make changes in my life based on the patterns I had observed, and my life began to change. In the past few years I joined a mastermind group that has given me the opportunity to meet more thought leaders and others individuals who are constantly striving to improve their lives. All of this brought me to a very jarring realization. All throughout my formal education I had never been taught how to plan and lead my life. Have you? From this realization, Monumental Living was born with the simple mission to help as many people as possible live their most monumental lives.
