You are going to encounter short-sighted, arrogant, negative and unhappy people throughout life. Some because they just are that way, others because they are going through something.
Don’t allow them to sway or impact what you’re doing. It’s out of your control. Stay focused.
5 things you will never regret:
1. Avoiding alcohol
2. Going for a walk in nature
3. Hitting the gym for a workout
4. Eating a wholesome nutritious meal
5. Getting away from your phone once a week
All require a bit of willpower & effort but you’ll feel great afterwards
Sundays are for reviewing & planning:
1. Review yearly & quarterly goals
2. Review your weekly wins & lessons
3. Plan out your tasks for the upcoming week
4. Schedule these tasks into your calendar

-Cram all meetings into two days a week.
- 1-on-1s are usually 30-minute walking meetings.

You don't need all the answers right now. New paths will reveal themselves if you have the courage to get started.
