@TomFrankly Dan, this is such great advice.

Being "smart" doesn't just mean intelligence.

It's about having 1 other underrated (and oddly-ignored) trait:

When I was home at home recently, I noticed a book on the bookshelf in my family’s living room:

Mental Toughness Training For Sports: Achieving Athletic Excellence by James E. Loehr, Ed.D.

The man on the cover was wearing a track suit from the 80s, which showed the book’s age. My father had probably made this purchase four decades ago, right around the age I am now.

Seeing what he had been reading back then gives me a window into both who he was and who he wanted to be.

My father’s love for basketball and athletic excellence was a prominent part of my childhood.

His favorite player was Jerry West, and he spoke often (at the dinner table, in the car on the way to hockey practice) about how he was “the smartest player on the court.”

It didn’t take me very long to realize “smart” didn’t only mean intelligence. Smart also meant mental toughness.

As I picked the book off the shelf, took it over to a nearby chair and started reading, I recognized the man I had always thought of as my father, but never considered as a competitor in and of himself.

The book stated the importance of daily discipline, and I remembered, day after day, watching my father repeat his same morning routine:

• Coffee
• Workout
• Oatmeal in the car on the way to work

The book emphasized control over mental focus and attention, and I recalled all the school nights my father would come home at 8:00 p.m., eat his late plate of dinner, and say, “Had to do two, six-hour laminectomies today. Brutal.”

The book made the case for why positive energy is exponentially more conducive to high performance than negative energy, and I couldn’t help but acknowledge my father’s ability to leave work issues at work, walk in the door, and give the last two or three hours of his day to his wife and kids.

“Success is 95% mental.”

That’s the central idea within the book.

Furthermore, “MENTAL TOUGHNESS IS LEARNED, NOT INHERITED,” the book yells in all caps.

I did not inherit my father’s mental toughness.

But it’s clear to me now who I learned it from.

Thanks for getting back to me. I’ll start using Circle now.

[Lulu deCarron @l_deCarron]

@TomFrankly
Hi Tom,
I’ve already joined your community on Circle. That’s a great resource.
Notion is a steep mountain, but I want to figure this template out as quickly as possible.

[Lulu deCarron @l_deCarron]

3. Do you have any suggestions? I love this template and was delighted to find it. Should I delete and reinstall it? The download seemed flawless. HELP! Now, I need the working template without the instruction boxes. What do you suggest?

[Lulu deCarron @l_deCarron]

@TomFrankly 1. Hi, Tom. I have an important question regarding the download CC from Marketplace. A gray box appeared. I added it to Notion; it appeared in Private. I opened the download and found the template with direction boxes. The purchase didn't show up in purchased.

[Lulu deCarron @l_deCarron]

2. The downloaded template has instruction boxes. I reviewed them, and now I want to start working on the C C template. But how do I access the working template without the instruction boxes?

[Lulu deCarron @l_deCarron]

@TomFrankly I just purchased the Creator's Companion. Filling out the form for Circle.

[Lulu deCarron @l_deCarron]

@TomFrankly
Hi Tom, I going to buy your Content Creator Companion, I was delighted to find it, and the fact that it starts off simpler and you can add to it, is perfect for me. I’m spending far too much time trying to figure Notion out.
