Shit gets better when you stop telling yourself you can't. Mindset is everything.

[Alex Hormozi @AlexHormozi]

4 paths to mega money:

1) Bet other people’s money on other people’s businesses (fund managers)

2) Bet your money on other people’s businesses (investing)

3) Bet other people’s money on your business (raising funds)

4) Bet your money on your own business (bootstrapping).

[Alex Hormozi @AlexHormozi]

When someone insults you without any context on your life, they’re not insulting you, they’re insulting someone who hurt them who you remind them of.

[Leila Hormozi @LeilaHormozi]

Holding your partner accountable to achieving their full potential is the deepest form of love.

[Junhan Chin @junhanchin]

The value of a book depends on how you use it

[Lex Fridman @lexfridman]

4am hits hard sometimes. I'm both lonely and full of love, unsure of anything and yet happy. Where did we come from? Why are we here? I don't know, but I like it. The people are beautiful and the food is delicious.

Stacking different skills, sets of knowledge, and existing ideas together towards improvements and problem solving pertaining to my existing knowledge base/skill sets surrounding my unique circumstances & bottlenecks.

"The bigger the circle of the known, the greater the contact with the unknown. And the more firmly all our beliefs used to stand, the more helplessly our new identity totters."

Please aim to relentlessly treat everyone you meet with dignity.

No exceptions.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Should be taught to all at a young age

[justin carrothers @519jc]

Think about the theory of compounded success.

Win each day and win at life.

Win each morning and win your day.

Win each evening routine and win your morning.

Win now and win your evening routine.

Win.

And start now.

Listening to hardstyle and dubstep before sales meetings to get hyped >>>>>>>>

In the rapidly changing economy we live in, small and medium enterprises need to understand now more than ever how crucial adaptation is.

Adapt or die.

There is no other option.

[justin carrothers @519jc]

Learn to smell the roses.

Elevating your position in this world is not solely based on wealth accumulation.

[justin carrothers @519jc]

Thinking and contemplating your dreams will not make them a reality.

Take action.

Execution and consistency is what will get you there.

[justin carrothers @519jc]

Everyone has two lives.

But the second doesn't start until you realize you only have one.

Inspired by a Confucius quote I heard.

So true.

I think about my mortality often.

I believe that's why near death experiences have sent me on such a purpose filled trajectory.

[justin carrothers @519jc]

You don't need to get too crazy with making a plan.

But if you can reverse engineer the next two years by breaking it down into a series of 90 day periods, you'll actually know what you need to do to ensure you achieve your goals.

Take a SMART goal and make an actionable path.

[justin carrothers @519jc]

Gone but not forgotten. Rest easy Mickey.

This man did what needed to be done. Certainly leading to trauma & countless near-death experiences.

Listening to Mickey over the years taught me what it means to act in service of others & to stand for what is right.

Love you always.
