BUSINESS INSPIRATION & KNOWLEDGE

The difference between who you are and who you want to be is what you do.

Not what you say.

Your actions reveal your beliefs.

Everything else is just a story you tell yourself.

Don't sell.

Educate.

Educate your audience:

• On a problem
• Why they haven't solved it
• On the negative beliefs stopping them
• On the negative outcomes if it goes unsolved

And then...

• How you did it
• How you helped others do it

And watch the sales come through.

– Colin Powell

Looks.
Intelligence.

Those are all great.

An insatiable desire to improve.

No matter where they start, hard to beat someone who improves every second of every day without giving up.

People quit when things get hard because the thought of something being hard forever is unbearable

But nothing hard lasts forever.

You either quit.
It gets easier.
Or you get harder.

No matter what. It always ends.
But you only lose when you quit before you see it through.

Slow and steady wins the race because they never stop.

If someone you know is getting ahead, spending less time with you, and not responding as much…

Don’t blame them for changing.

Blame yourself for not keeping up.

Resiliency is measured by the time it takes you to behave normally after something bad happens.

With the most resilient person showing no change to begin with.

Note: this doesn’t mean you stop feeling bad. It just means you stop letting how you feel change how you act.

Everyone takes a different amount of years to stop giving af about what everyone else thinks.

And if you’re gonna get there eventually, you might as well start today and enjoy the benefits for longer.

You can't stop time, but you can stop wasting it.

You’re young. You’ve got time.
—>false.

All this does is extend how long it takes people to realize:

1) Tomorrow isn’t guaranteed
2) Nothing is gonna be easy. Get over it.
3) It takes time to get good.
4) The sooner you start the sooner you get.
5) Don’t stop until you do.

You always think you’re working hard until you see someone working 10x harder than you. Then you’re like “F#%K - I need to work harder.”

The crazy part is that this happens 5-10 times throughout your life.

Which also means - yes - there are people working 1000x harder than you.
