The first group was attentive; the second paid attention. #UnreasonableHospitality. 28all. Eya. *JG* The Warm-Up: “Goal without deadline = Fantasy Goal + Deadline = Objective Goal + Deadline + Plan = Intention Goal + Deadline + Plan + Consistent Action = Success Meaningful Goals + Deadline + Plan + Consistent Action = Fulfillment.” ~Unknown The Core: “The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.” ~Proverbs 16:9 “You must first become consistent before you can become exceptional.” ~Alex Hormozi “The Bible is meant to be bread for daily use, not cake for special occasions.” ~Unknown “Constantly looking for that thing that will get you rich quick will keep you broke forever.” ~CJ Johnson “You can lose yourself one small compromise at a time. You can transform yourself one small win at a time.” ~James Clear “God often waits until we’re out of ideas before He lets us know His plans; He competes for our hearts, not our attention.” ~Bob Goff “If you saw the size of the blessing coming, you would understand the magnitude of the battle you are fighting.” ~Michele Jennae “Just pray you find somebody who will fight for you and beside you, but never against you. Somebody with more faith than pride.” ~Rob Hill Sr. “If you’re playing the ‘net worth’ game: As quickly as you can, figure out how to go from this: Work —> income —> tax —> equity to this: Work —> equity.” ~Moses Kagan “All you need are these: certainty of judgement in the present moment; action for the common good in the present moment; and an attitude of gratitude in the present moment for anything that comes your way.” ~Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 9.6 “No one will trust you with anything important as long as you are emotionally unstable. You are missing out on so many opportunities when you don’t have your mental health in order. Getting luckier in life begins with better self-care.” ~Orange Book “The average person feels cheated by the dream they were sold. School didn’t prepare them for this. The job didn’t give them enough money, time, or security. Since that’s all they were taught, they don’t see another way to live, so they drown in anything that will numb the pain.” ~Dan Koe
“Good and evil both increase at compound interest. That is why the little decisions you and I make every day are of such infinite importance. The smallest good act today is the capture of a strategic point from which, a few months later, you may be able to go on to victories you never dreamed of. An apparently trivial indulgence in lust or anger today is the loss of a ridge or railway line or bridgehead from which the enemy may launch an attack otherwise impossible.” ~C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
Last Set: “Smart people are uniquely vulnerable to mistaking complexity for insight. An executive writes a ten-page memo that could be one. An engineer builds an intricate system when a simple one would perform better at half the cost. The consultant mesmerizes clients with frameworks that conceal rather than reveal. We attach prestige to what mystifies us. Complexity intoxicates both the creator and audience, drugging us with the illusion of wisdom. Mastery isn’t making the simple complex—it’s finding the elegant simplicity that cuts through the complexity.” ~Shane Parrish, Brain Food. November 24, 2024 | #603 Food For Thought: “Seeing all this pageantry at Texas vs. Texas A&M reminds me of perhaps the best observation I’ve ever seen about the difference between CFB and NFL. The NFL is a TV event that you can see live. College football is a live even that you can watch on TV.” ~Brett Kollmann
