Too often we hold ourselves back not because we don’t know what to do - but because we don’t create the environment that forces us to do it.

[George @gmorttt]

People respect stubbornness — but only when it’s done right. Because then, it’s not stubbornness at all, it’s being clear about what matters to you.

[George @gmorttt]

Small actions, repeated over time, will take you further than any short burst of motivation ever could.

[George @gmorttt]

If we all spent just a little bit more time thinking about our future selves instead of our current selves, and using that to make our decisions, it’s hard not to think that we would be more consistent in showing up and doing the things that we say are important to us.

[George @gmorttt]

So often it seems like we make decisions as if there’s only 100% effort or 0%. All or nothing.

When in reality you could just show up and do your best. Even if your best effort was only 50% or 25% that is so much more than 0%

[George @gmorttt]

One of the biggest mindset shifts in my life was to make decisions based on the fact that I know one day I am going to die and will no longer be here.

[George @gmorttt]

The biggest mistake a business can make when just starting out is to pull money out of your business too quickly.

[George @gmorttt]

There’s a saying in business: If you’re not growing, you’re dying.

Effective communication is non-negotiable in business

[George @gmorttt]

Doing all the right things takes time and effort.

[George @gmorttt]

While money 100% will help, if you lack control over your time and choices each day, it's not going to solve the core part of the problem.

Why does everyone hate Mondays?

[George @gmorttt]

Perfection is not the goal.

The goal is progress and consistent improvement toward becoming a little bit better than who you were yesterday.

[George @gmorttt]

External factors can lead to motivation or inspiration, but real growth will almost always come exclusively from internal drivers.

[George @gmorttt]

No one has the same exact background, upbringing, or story that you do. So it makes no sense to compare what someone else has and the life that they live to what you are currently doing with your life.

[George @gmorttt]

In my experience, there’s only one comparison that I’ve learned is actually worth comparing too.

Yourself. Your past self.

You against you.

[George @gmorttt]

Imperfection is the key to success in life.
Perfection, on the other hand, will destroy you. And far too frequently, just the idea of perfection alone will prevent you from ever getting started.

[George @gmorttt]

Process > Perfection.

Here’s the honest truth - Everyone is a leader, whether they like it or not.
