Major cheat code for life: Always assume things will work out, then do the work to make it true. It’s a mindset of active optimism. Earned faith. It creates a quiet confidence that allows you to tolerate the uncertainty of life better than anything else.
Most people don't fear failure.
They fear losing the identity they've spent years building.
Because changing your life often means admitting the old version of you was wrong.
The greatest battle of all is with yourself—your weaknesses, your emotions, your lack of resolution in seeing things through to the end. You must declare unceasing war on yourself.
A man with no review habit keeps paying for the same lesson. Same bad sleep. Same weak boundary. Same missed workout. Same late start. Same emotional reaction. Life is giving feedback, but you keep calling it a bad week
Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul built a billion-dollar agency from nothing and says discouragement has killed more people than guns
“You gotta have blinders on. I’m telling you and I said this before, discouragement has killed more people than guns, man”
“Every single day somebody tries to discourage you because of the position they’re in. Not the position that you can be in”
“So when people say what you can’t do, that’s just discouragement. I don’t drink that. That’s bottom shelf”
Steve Jobs has a great quote about this. Steve said this shortly before he died:
"I hate it when people call themselves "entrepreneurs" when what they're really trying to do is launch a startup and then sell or go public, so they can cash in and move on.
They're unwilling to do the work it takes to build a real company, which is the hardest work in business.
That's how you really make a contribution and add to the legacy of those who went before. You build a company that will still stand for something a generation or two from now.
That's what Walt Disney did, and Hewlett and Packard, and the people who built Intel. They created a company to last, not just to make money. That's what I want Apple to be."
