Today is your lucky day

Forget mistakes, forget failures, forget everything, except what you’re going to do now and do it. Today is your lucky day. While you can't make more time, you can make time more valuable

Clear thinking

One reason the best in the world make consistently good decisions is that they rarely find themselves forced into a decision by circumstances. You don’t need to be smarter than others to outperform them if you can out-position them. Anyone looks like a genius when they’re in a good position, and even the smartest person looks like an idiot when they’re in a bad one.

Mental toughness immediately increases

Who is the happier man: he who has braved life's storms and lived, or he who has remained safely on shore and merely existed? Mental toughness immediately increases when you find the right subject. You're more likely to stick with things when you're genuinely interested.

Play the game that ensures you get a lot of shots

The person who gets 1 shot needs everything to go right. The person who gets 1000 shots will score at some point. Find a way to play the game that ensures you get a lot of shots.

If you want the trajectory to change

Life rarely changes in a positive way without an increase in responsibility. This is true in many areas: taking ownership of your health, committing to a relationship, starting a business, etc. Whatever it is, if you want the trajectory to change, the amount of responsibility usually has to change.

The person who complains the loudest

The person who complains the loudest gets attention, but at the expense of their reputation. And yet, following up is an important life skill. If you want something done and you'd like it done soon, then you need to follow up. The balance is in the delivery. Be pleasant and persistent when things matter to you. Always be kind, but don't let it rest until it's done and done well.

We are all connected

We are all connected. The way you choose to live ripples into the future. Your decisions today can be a blessing or a curse for your descendants. Strive to live in such a way that the world will gain from your time here.
