Show me something, cause I’m tryin’ to find something…#JCole…Walk good. 28all. Eya. *SC, OA, JG* The Warm-Up: “Committing to the process requires understanding that the greatest education comes from the richest experiences. In fact, success without process will leave you unqualified to reign over what you’ve built. It is the process that builds your stamina, your insight, and most importantly your relationships, which are the lifeblood of any business.” ~T.D. Jakes, Soar! The Core: “Inspiration is perishable—Act on it immediately.” ~Naval Ravikant “Don’t seek clarity of mind, seek consistency of good habits.” ~Orange Book “God will not have his work made manifest by cowards.” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson “Those that don’t got it, can’t show it. Those that got it, can’t hide it.” ~ Zora Neale Hurston “Freedom means the opportunity to be what we never thought we would be.” ~Daniel J. Boorstin “There are years that ask questions and years that answer them.” ~Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God “Network as a moat is a real thing. Sometimes real, long-standing relationships get deals done. Be good to people.” ~Harry Hurst “Without patience as your sword and shield, your timing will fail, and you will inevitably find yourself a loser.” ~Robert Greene, 48 Laws of Power “Don’t do things that you know are morally wrong. Not because someone is watching, but because you are. Self-esteem is just the reputation that you have with yourself. You’ll always know.” ~Naval Ravikant “You don’t need a better computer to become a writer. You don’t need a better guitar to become a musician. You don’t need a better camera to become a photographer. What you need is to get to work.” ~James Clear, 3-2-1 “What am I here for? / I’m a man so I cannot let them tears fall? / But understand tryna get my head clear ya’ll / This shit is on my mind / Asking for the lord to show me all my signs / Show me something, uh” ~J. Cole, Show Me Something “Some ppl who make over $100k are the first in their families to do so at such a young age. Paycheck to paycheck doesn’t always mean they’re spending recklessly on themselves—it could mean they’re carrying their families on their backs.” ~@_DaveyBaby “My 93-year-old father just gave me permission to reveal a Griffin family secret: You create incredible value without any monetary cost, fiat or otherwise, by being kind to people, being trustworthy, showing up for causes you believe in and standing up for what’s right.” ~Tren Griffin “There’s a lot of hidden leverage in the world – tiny things that seem inconsequential but operate in a tightly wound system where one flaw can bring everything down…Some things are immeasurably important, impossible to quantify. But they can make all the difference in the world, often because their lack of quantification causes people to discount their relevance, or even deny their existence.” ~Morgan Housel, Little Stories Last Set: “Your encouraging words have more power than you think, and people need to hear them more often than you think. Take a moment now to think of someone whom you can reach out to today and then follow through and make the connection.” ~Tony Dungy, April 3rd, The One Year Uncommon Life, Daily Challenge Food for Thought: “The mirror might not lie, but no one looks at you in the mirror more than you do. Your business or project or life story is intimately known to you. You have lived it. But the outside world will never see all of it, can never see all of it. And so we bump into the disconnect. The disconnect between the thing we know so well and what others have decided based on their own agenda, background and limited experience with us and our work. When they don’t align, we can focus on the quality and consistency of our story, and be sure that our actions are integral with the conception we’re working so hard to share. Consistency is what people pay attention to, and when it’s not there, they make up a story about why. Because they can’t truly know.” ~Seth Godin, Self-Conception
