Your circle is supposed to be proud, not jealous. #ReggieMills. Walk Good. 28all. Eya. *PB, JD, AG, TB* The Warm-Up: “I have a duty to speak the truth as I see it and share not just my triumphs, not just the things that felt good, but the pain…It is important to share how I know survival is survival and not just a walk through the rain.” ~Audre Lorde The Core: “Losers want perfect results. Winners want perfect consistency.” ~Eddy Quan “I will not allow the light of my life to be determined by the darkness around me.” ~Sojourner Truth “If you are not getting smarter, healthier, wealthier, happier, you are not using the Internet properly.” ~Orange Book “The gap is the gift: the distance between what you want and where you are is the thing that creates the hunger.” ~Jon Tyson “As poets, we don’t use our talent to tell people, we use our vulnerability to share love and what is in our hearts.” ~Nikki Giovanni “Gratitude is like Vitamin D for the soul. A small daily dose provides an immunity to bullshit and keeps your mental health strong.” ~Mark Manson “Audit your friends. Audit your calendar. Audit your information sources. Inputs influence your output. Garbage in, garbage out.” ~Anthony Pompliano “Shout out to everybody who was temporarily seduced by the glorification of ‘hustle culture’ before realizing that there’s a better way to live.” ~Michell C Clark “When you know you’re destined for greatness, your potential haunts you. Your vision keeps you up at night. You won’t feel complete until you succeed.” ~@MentalityOG “You aren’t bored. You’re distracted. Hopping from social media to the news to video games to junk food to numb your mind from the discomfort that life presents. Distractions are finite. Your potential is not.” ~Dan Koe “One of the painful signs of years of dumbed-down education is how many people are unable to make a coherent argument. They can vent their emotions, question other people’s motives, make bold assertions, repeat slogans—anything except reason.” ~Thomas Sowell “Drake & Nobu are basically the exact same thing. It’s hard to tell if its cheesy or classy. Everyone is kinda ashamed how much they like it. It’s sceney but not too bad. Whoever says they hate it is lying and every time you try to hate it, you realize it’s actually incredible.” ~John Fio “After coaching a lot of very successful people, here’s an unsexy truth: A lot of success is learning to grind when it’s boring. Staying engaged, working, and seeing it through when it’s ‘boring’ is a skill. If you expect all building to be exciting, you’ll never make it.” ~Dr. Julie Gurner “Some of the best and deepest friendships don’t last forever. Your stories come together in a critical chapter where you laugh and learn as a team. But then life takes you on separate paths. Even so, the love is not lost between you, and you happily cheer each other on from afar.” ~Yung Pueblo “Productivity is overrated. What counts most is the quality of the output, not the quantity. People may be impressed by the volume you produce, but impact depends on the value you create. Success isn’t about getting more things done. It’s about doing more worthwhile things well.” ~Adam Grant Last Set: “There is a particular type of peace and that comes when you are a person of faith. When you understand where your blessings are sustenance originate from, instead of depending on other people, circumstances, or things for your sense of safety and well-being.” ~Maryam Hasnaa Food For Thought: “The edge is in the inputs. The person who consumes from better sources, gets better thoughts. The person who asks better questions, gets better answers. The person who builds better habits, gets better results. It’s not the outcome. It’s the inputs.” ~James Clear Food For Thought II: “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. When circumstances change, the person with low leverage and cash in the bank has many ways to play their hand and come out on top. On the other hand, the person with high leverage and no cash buffer has few. Time is the friend of someone properly positioned and the enemy of someone poorly positioned.” ~Brain Food: Leverage Time, No. 508 - Jan 22nd, 2023
