Be strong and do the work…Walk Good. 28all. Eya. The Warm-Up: “There’s a fine line between seeking feedback and seeking approval. The first gives you information. The second gives you addiction.” ~Alex Hormozi The Core: “Kind over nice. Outcome over ego. Velocity over speed. Quality over quantity. Effective over efficient.” ~Shane Parrish “It’s hard to build things of value when you spend your time trying to tear down other people. Choose wisely.” ~Anthony Pompliano “Stop oversharing – not everyone wants what’s best for you. Being private af about your plans and personal life is top tier self-care.” ~@_Pammy_DS “There’s no substitute for limited competition. You can be a genus, but if there’s a lot of competition, it won’t matter. I’ve spent my career trying to avoid its destructive consequences.” ~Sam Zell “Some people are funny, you help them once or twice, then you refuse to help them again, now they hate you, whilst they’re neutral towards other people who never helped them at all.” ~Orange Book “Until you forgive the older versions of you that didn’t know better and until you drop the resentment associated with your deepest regrets, you’re only blocking pathways for healed versions of you to make an appearance.” ~Billy Chapata “Being yourself is a continuous effort. There is always another expectation placed upon you, another person pulling you toward their preferences, another nudge from society to act a certain way. It’s a daily battle to be yourself, not merely what the world wants you to be.” ~James Clear “You will make mistakes. You will have drawbacks. You will feel like you are not good enough. You will waste months, years. Like your parents, grandparents, and all of your ancestors, you will learn as you live. Don’t give up so easily. You have more mental strength than you think.” ~Orange Book “You’ll read so many warnings about ‘arrogance’ or ‘too much confidence,’ and not enough warnings about poverty & not pushing for better. Poverty is far more hard & damaging to people than ‘too much confidence’ ever would be. Worry far less about arrogance. Go for a big life.” ~Dr. Julie Gurner “Realize this: In your struggle for power, you will stir up rivalries and create enemies. There will be people you cannot win over, who will remain your enemies no matter what. But whatever wound you inflicted on them, deliberately or not, do not take their hatred personally.” ~Robert Greene, 48 Laws of Power “Learn to love the version of yourself that chose harmful habits because they didn’t know any better. Learn to love the version of yourself that wanted to do better, but didn’t have the willpower to make different choices. Learn to love the present-day version of yourself that knows better and is trying to do better, even when it’s hard.” ~Michell C. Clark “Single most important factor in choosing a firm for which to work early in your career: Reps. Want to maximize the number of deals you see go from conception to completion. That’s how you learn (on someone else’s dime). To invert this: My nightmare first job would be working on some institutional development conceived years before I arrived & finishing years after I’ve left.” ~Moses Kagan Last Set: “If I responded angrily and extensively to every person who seeks to provoke anger from me on social media, I’d never experience peace, purpose or progress. Be a good steward of your energy. It’s okay to let provocateurs leave empty handed.” ~Bernice King Food For Thought: “The most effective networking strategy I’ve found has nothing to do with conferences, cocktail hours, cold emails, or any of the common ideas you hear. 1) Do interesting things. 2) Share them publicly. Like-minded people will come to you.” ~James Clear
