I don’t shine shoes anymore…Walk good. 28all. Eya. *LS* The Warm-Up: “You cant imitate your way to greatness because you can only copy the effect, not the cause.” ~Naval Ravikant The Core: “10,000 iterations, not 10,000 hours.” ~Naval Ravikant “If it’s out of your hands, it deserves freedom from your mind too.” ~Ivan Nuru “Today is a great day to absolutely destroy the box that others have tried to put you in.” ~Dr. Julie Gurner “You spend so much time taking care of others. Don’t neglect your garden. You’re worthy of care.” ~Dr. Thema Bryant “I have already settled it for myself so flattery and criticism go down the same drain and I am quite free.” ~Georgia O’Keefe “Many times, people just want to feel listened and understood, not lectured, not judged. You don’t have to always give your opinion.” ~Orange Book “A person’s potential for success is likely proportional to: Their willingness to embarrass themselves in front of others. Their ability to have difficult conversations. Their understanding of their own limitations.” ~Mark Manson “Viewed as an asset, education has some attractive qualities. It naturally tends to compound. You can carry it with you easily. No one can steal it or tax it. And unlike most assets, it makes life more interesting.” ~Paul Graham “The shallow end of the pool is crowded. It’s understandable why we stayed there as long as we did. The deep end looks empty but if you dare to go you will discover there are others who know how to breathe, dive, and float. It’s time.” ~Dr. Thema Bryant “Facts alone do not persuade us. Not because we’re stubborn, irrational, or dumb, but because facts are generic and up for interpretation. Story is that interpretation. Story puts facts in context so we can understand their significance and what they mean to us.” ~Kpaxs “For decades I thought power was based on how much weight you could lift or how many men you could knock out. Now I realize that real power is when a man can navigate through the pressures of this world without succumbing to his negative emotions.” ~Mr. Jason Wilson “So many people have an opinion on your looks, career, relationships, lifestyle choices, etc. But how many of them do you think genuinely care about your well-being, and how many of them just want to feel a little more secure about themselves by passing judgement?” ~Vex King “When looking at an investment, if one of your top considerations is how you’ll get liquidity on it—it likely means you don’t have enough conviction in the company & you’re probably better off passing. Great businesses ultimately provide many liquidity paths.” ~Orlando Bravo Last Set: “It’s not answers you’re looking for but clarity. Answers change…clarity is directional. Answers are solutions to current moments…and moments change from one minute to the next…from one experience to the next. What makes sense today, may not be applicable tomorrow. Clarity is understanding…it leads to intentional direction because you are able to see the bigger picture of things…today, tomorrow and beyond. Clarity is timeless. Clarity is ‘knowing.’ Clarity is a ‘feeling.’ Clarity is faith in action without having all the answers but sureness in the direction of an outcome. Seek clarity and be flexible with the answers.” ~Matt Gottesman Food For Thought: “Be a bottle of water. Not a bottle of soda.” “What do you mean” “The bottle is you. What’s inside is your emotions / reactions. The outside world and people are gonna attack you and rattle / shake you from time to time. If you shake a bottle of soda, when you finally open up you’re gonna explode. But if you shake a water bottle, once you open up it’s the same calm water it was before it got shook up. Don’t let other people and this world disrupt your inner peace.” ~mindset.therapy :: We appreciate your readership. You can learn more about the MML here.
