“Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer the negative elements in your life, don’t sit at home and think about it. Go out and get busy!”
— Dale Carnegie
Caring drives everything.
Not every day will be great, but underneath it all, at the foundation of excellence, you’ll always find care. It’s what allows you to give something your all, to stay on the path through ups and downs."
🌟 Let’s remember: while talent is a gift, caring is a choice. And it's this choice that leads to success and fulfillment. 🌟
This thought from @BStulberg resonated with me --
"You can possess all the talent in the world, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t care.
ESPN and TNT Sports have reached a five-year agreement for TNT Sports to sublicense select College Football Playoff (CFP) games from ESPN, beginning with the upcoming college football season. TNT will present two first-round CFP games during the 2024 and 2025 seasons.
Hard truths about motivation:
•Nobody feels it all the time—it’s like a wave that ebbs and flows
•Action creates it
•Sleep restores it
•It thrives in community
•Talking about the work may start it, but doing the work sustains it
•Nothing is more important than showing up
Things that can coexist.
Hard work AND rest.
Self-discipline AND self-kindness.
Ruggedness AND flexibility.
Belonging AND solitude.
Accepting yourself AND getting better.
Stability AND change.
Tragedy AND optimism.
Intensity AND joy.
Caring deeply AND non-attachment.
People can help you in many ways throughout life, but there are two things nobody can give you: curiosity and drive. They must be self-supplied.
If you are not interested and curious, all the information in the world can be at your fingertips, but it will be relatively useless. If you are not motivated and driven, whatever connections or opportunities are available to you will be rendered inert.
Now, you won't feel curious and driven about every area of life, and that's fine. But it really pays to find something that lights you up. This is one of the primary quests of life: to find the thing that ignites your curiosity and drive.
There are many recipes for success. There is no single way to win. But nearly all recipes include two ingredients: curiosity and drive.
@fabfourfan He’s a man worth admiring! He’s also made it clear that if his wife goes into labor this week (it will be their first child) he will leave to be with her, no matter where he is on the leaderboard! This earns him even more points from me!
