Be Aggressive about your life.
It is the only way to get what you want from it...
Nothing comes from the gentle hoping, half-given effort, or the daydreaming of most.
You have to know who you are...
What you want, pursue & reject
Be Aggressive about your life.

Nick Saban's Five Enemies of Greatness is always worth a read. He didn't write these, but they're a solid short list of his coaching philosophy throughout the years...
Ingest them for your team, and ingest them for yourself.
The 5 Enemies..keep them away from you.
I recently watched the famous lecture by the late MIT professor Patrick Winston, titled ‘How to Speak.’
He opens by saying: “Your success in life will be determined largely by your ability to speak, your ability to write, and the quality of your ideas, in that order.”
Freaking brilliant.
#WATCH | Chennai, Tamil Nadu: Chairman of Tata Sons, Natarajan Chandrasekaran says, "... I have learnt and imbibed two things in my life, which I want to share with you. I am a runner. A famous marathon runner, Juma Ikangaa, once said, “The will to win means nothing without the will to prepare.” It is not just about the desire to win, but the willingness to put in the effort and prepare... Hard work, preparation and learning from setbacks are essential. There will be failures and disappointments, but every setback teaches you to put in more effort. Fear of failure stops progress. Every failure is a step forward, and every success builds confidence... You must run your own race. Everyone has their own journey, skills, strengths, weaknesses and goals. Do not get distracted by others, as they may have different targets. Measure yourself against yourself."
Millions of 3-year-old laptops get blamed for being "slow" when the hardware is barely the problem — it's almost always what's silently running underneath.
A student was about to spend $900 on a brand new laptop because hers took 4 minutes to boot and constantly froze mid-assignment, right when deadlines mattered most.
Her older brother, who builds PCs on the side and has fixed dozens of laptops for friends, sat down with her laptop for 8 minutes on a Sunday afternoon.
He didn't reinstall Windows.
Didn't add RAM.
Didn't recommend an SSD upgrade.
Didn't suggest buying anything at all.
He changed 8 settings.
Boot time dropped from 4 minutes to 20 seconds. Chrome stopped eating 90% of her CPU in the background. Word stopped freezing mid-sentence while she typed.
Same laptop. Same specs. Same age. Same everything.
"Your laptop was never actually slow. It was just never cleaned up past the day you bought it — and nobody, not the store, not Microsoft, not tech support, was ever going to tell you the fix was free."
🧵 Here are the 8 settings he changed:
