Always have more patience. be able to put in the work every day, even when distance, feel like you’re getting anywhere. The goal is not to make progress today, but to make progress over decades. This is fundamentally different. How do you understand formants and success has little to do with the sort of long term behavior. you need to manage the ability to get up and love who you are every day.

train yourself to always look for opportunities and be positive with those opportunities. The only way that you see opportunities is if you believe you actually can. This means that you’re going to do stuff that nobody else is willing to do.

and become so used to filing the I told you so in my head has become a ritual. People will cramp on me for any number of reasons, and I get to file it away. I told you so. I’ll come back and I’ll realize wait a minute he was right I should be treating myself with dignity and respect, I should’ve been investing, I should have been helping out other people, and I will come back, and I will say I told you so.

When you have experience, you get to sit back and bite your lip every time somebody looks the other way. Inevitably they’ll be coming back in a decade thinking, I should’ve listen to what he said. I can sit there and say I told you so. It gives me motivation to keep going for other people that need the information at the time.

The physical world around us is simply just an artifact of a random idea that somebody tripped up. We define our world based on the physical things, but the real issue in how we define our world are the simple ideas. He’s ideas are often somewhat minor when they start out, but they turn into very big ideas that matter in constructor world.

We can create a world in which season ideas have a positive impact, or we can create a world that restricts who we are the choice of the outcomes of these ideas resigns enough.

I think we need to start with the idea that everybody is different. How we grow as individuals, organizations, and societies is to recognize that everybody is different.

Learn uncomfortable things. Often you grow as a person when you learn things that you think are irrelevant, or made you feel uncomfortable at the time.

You might feel many positive emotions when you learn,but you also often feel very negative emotions.

Exploring those topics that lead to those negative emotions often will result in significant development.

Topics that question the status quo are good for us.

deciding what you should work on, is often more challenging and deciding to actually work. There’s never quite a clear answer in what is the best possible course of action.

I talk about the importance of personal financial management, and how this matters in the long run. It seems when you’re doing it in the short run to be nothing other than a simple cost. However, in the long run it almost always pays out.

What you need to do is focus on reducing, your household costs and expenditures, and focus on increasing your salaries and wages as much as he possibly can.

As you do that think about investing your money broadly within assets that are well diversified.

is it the role or the person that is leading to the behavior? Many of us are in different roles in society, and when we see certain behaviors, we often attribute those behaviors to the person. However, we often forget that these people are doing in their truck job. or simply just playing the part of the rule.

I struggled with thinking about how much it is actually the person versus the rule. If we take the perspective that it’s in person, we often think about leader ship. However, if we take the perspective of the role we think about status and position.

I don’t think there’s a right answer, but we may want to consider being more empathetic before you’re angry at other people, and more thoughtful, when you see things that you may believe are heroic.

Taking steps forward can be difficult, but it's important to remember that most of the steps you take will feel like they are below you. This is just part of the process of starting.

To be successful, you have to be willing to put in the effort and face challenges head-on. Trust that with each step you take, you are getting closer to your goal and becoming stronger in the process. So, don't be discouraged by the difficulties you encounter along the way. Embrace them as an opportunity to grow and keep moving forward.
