In due time. Until then, just grind. Learn from everyone. Follow no one. Watch for patterns. Work like hell. #@Mentality. Walk Good. 28all. Eya.*MW* The Warm-Up: “When confidence comes from results, you gravitate toward easy things. When confidence comes from the ability to figure it out, nothing can stop you.” ~Shane Parrish The Core: “The Holy Spirit does not consult human schedules.” ~Steven Furtick “It’s not Missionary vs. Mercenary. It’s Artist vs Everything else.” ~Naval Ravikant “Mantra: Where I am now, may not be where I want to be, but there is a beautiful reason why I’ve been placed here temporarily.” ~Billy Chapata “What we want hardly matters. We do not find meaning in the wanting; we find meaning in the pursuit of the thing we want.” ~Donald Miller, Hero On A Mission “Marriage is not the end of the search for love. It’s the end of the search for the person to love. The search for ways to love that person has just begun.” ~Tank Sinatra (@mattgottesman) “In dysfunctional families, one adult controls the emotional climate of the entire home. In healthy families, everyone can feel different emotions without invalidating each other or pressuring each other to feel the same thing.” ~Dr. Nicole LePera “Most assholes are going through something terrible in their life. People hide their skeletons, which requires blind forgiveness of their quirks and moods because you’re unaware of what they’re dealing with.” ~Morgan Housel, Little Rules About Big Things “You meet a lot of people, then you realize what you needed was to treat better the few people who truly matter. You make a lot of money, then you realize what you needed was more free time to do what you truly love. Don’t seek more, seek meaningful.” ~Orange Book “Not everyone deserves your vulnerability, your more softer side, the intimate parts that your reveal to a few. Not everyone deserves to experience you, hold the gold that you carry, and get glimpses into your inner world. Feel no guilt for keeping some pieces of you to yourself.” ~Billy Chapata “And she wipes weary from her eyes still glued to the no-good glued to the high-definition glare of a low-definition life…so I keep peeking through a crack in the door and when he sees me he smiles because the fever aint burned all his bright up yet.” ~Jason Reynolds & Jason Griffin, Aint Burned All The Bright “They only see your successes and clap for you. But they’re not wishing they could be you at the early morning runs when it’s raining and everyone else is sleeping. The Friday nights working on your craft. The doubt and ridicule from others at the start of your journey. No. They don’t wanna be that guy. They just wanna be you when you’re on the podium with your hand raised.” ~@mentality “I talked about being curious. You cant take an answer as a given. You always have to ask why and keep asking why and go down rabbit holes. I also think you have to be self-aware about what you’re good at and what you’re not good at, and willing to surround yourself and develop teams and talents that can make up for your shortfalls. In this industry, you make money by having a view that’s not the consensus and, over time, becomes the consensus view. You have to have the confidence to have opinions and be an independent thinker and then be willing to bet on them.” ~Dawn Fitzpatrick, CEO & CIO, Soros Fund Management in How To Invest, Masters On The Craft by David M. Rubenstein Last Set: “Them: Why do you work so hard? Me: I want my children to inherit land, businesses, and properties; not pain, trauma, and struggles.” ~@mentality Food For Thought: “A few things I’ve come to terms with: There is rarely more or less economic uncertainty; just changes in how ignorant people are to potential risks…You should obsess over risks that do permanent damage and care little about risks that do temporary harm, but the opposite is more common…The only way to build wealth is to have a gap between your ego and your income…Everyone belongs to a tribe and underestimates how influential that tribe is on their thinking…A lot of financial debates are just people with different time horizons talking over each other.” ~Morgan Housel, Little Rules About Big Things Crazy Stat: “Using ball tracking data, Justin Tucker’s game winning [43y yard] field goal [against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sun 10.9.22] crossed the upright with a y-coordinate (width of field) of 26.52. The exact middle of the field is y= 26.67. That is, if the uprights were half a yard wide, the kick would have still been good.” ~@hurdles :: We appreciate your readership.
