Ep. 59 - Breaking Bad


Listen Later

Breaking bad luck or unfortunate patterns in life is far more likely to happen when we address our own contributions: bad habits, bad attitudes, and bad mindsets. Excellence is not a goal to be achieved, but an attitude to be cultivated.

 

Quotes:

Helen Keller: “Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.”

 

Ulysses S. Grant: “Everyone has his superstitions. One of mine has always been when I started to go anywhere, or to do anything, never to turn back or to stop until the thing intended was accomplished.”

 

Charles V. Cherbuliez: “What helps luck is a habit of watching for opportunities, of having a patient, but restless mind, of sacrificing one’s ease or vanity, of uniting a love of detail to foresight, and of passing through hard times bravely”

 

Coaching Question: Did I do my best to break bad today?
