1. When you start matters more than where you start.
2. Your story is your ceiling…
Change the story you tell yourself about yourself to change your life.
3. The cost of inaction is almost always greater than the cost of wrong action
Truth is…
Most dreams die of inaction, not wrong action.
4. Risks through the windshield become opportunities in the rear view mirror.
This is why most people miss’em.
5. Failure is the most information rich dataset in the world.
The most successful people know how to rapidly collect as much of this data as possible.
They fail fast and forward, always.
6. The universe doesn’t care how you feel…
It only cares what you do.
7. It’s not about what you know…
It’s about what you DO with what you know.
You don’t lack information…
You lack implementation.
8. Never take advice (or criticism) from someone you wouldn’t trade places with.
Boos come from the people sitting in the stands…
Not from the ones standing on the court.
9. To develop patience, first learn how to be present.
Presence is the input.
Patience is the result.
Bonus:
Delusional self-belief beats realistic self-criticism
Life is hard and nobody is going to cheer for you until after you’ve already started winning.
In the beginning, you’re gonna have to do all the cheering yourself.
Society tells us it’s okay to be your own biggest critic, but judges us harshly for being our own biggest cheerleader.
This is completely backwards.
You are amazing and capable of achieving extraordinary things…
Never forget that.
Progress
