"Care enough to start a new enterprise. Care enough to change it all. Care enough to set some records. Care enough to win." — Jim Rohn
He didn't say try harder. He said care. That's the difference.

Winning isn't what makes you feel good. Growth makes you feel good.
Sometimes they are the same thing. When you achieve something for the first time, it's growth. You've reached a new level. The win feels satisfying. But when you do it for the tenth time (or the hundredth time), it can feel stale. You're still winning, but you're not necessarily growing.
The secret is not to worry about winning, but rather to focus on growing. And the most straightforward way to grow is to learn something. If you're ever feeling stuck, go learn something new. Read, write, think, learn, repeat.
When you're learning, you're growing.
The obvious way to buy back your time is to pay someone to do something for you. Pay the mechanic to change your oil or a dry cleaner to press your suit.
The less obvious way to buy back your time is to say no. Passing on a promotion might "buy" you more time with family. Declining the dinner invite might "pay" for the time you need to exercise. We buy back our time not only with the money we spend, but also with the opportunities we decline.
The more clearly you know how you want to spend your days, the easier it becomes to say no to the requests that steal your hours.

A great relationship is not only finding the person you have fun with, but also finding the person you want to be bored with. The beauty of long-term relationships is often hidden in boring, ordinary moments.
Una forma de aumentar nuestra fuerza de voluntad y concentración es gestionar nuestras distracciones en lugar de dejar que ellas nos gestionen a nosotros.
