“Leave good evidence of yourself. Do good work.”

Things are going to work out for you. Everything you are stressing about won't even matter soon. Long awaited change is coming your way. Let go of the old and embrace this new energy

The most dangerous competitor isn’t the industry giant but the founder who’s solving the same problem for deeply personal reasons.

Most time is wasted, because it’s spent in anticipation of something in the future, rather than for the thing at hand

I see them there, the person I could become
But reaching them means leaving who I am behind.

stop mindlessly consuming information and calling it 'learning'. it's not learning. it's glorified entertainment. real learning is discovering a new idea. questioning it. testing it. refining it. practising it. making it your own and implementing it. anything else is pointless.

“How do you become more productive?”
Richard Branson leaned back and thought for a second. The tropical sounds of his private oasis, Necker Island, murmured in the background. Twenty people sat around him at rapt attention, wondering what a billionaire’s answer would be to one of the big questions—perhaps the biggest question—of business.
Then he broke the silence: “Work out.”
He was serious and elaborated: working out gave him at least four additional hours of productive time every day.

There’s a certain trust that’s reserved for friends who believed in you when you were a no-name. The ones who've watched you fall and helped you up from the ashes. These are the people you meet early in your career, and the more you achieve, the more irreplaceable they become.

Lately, I’ve been thinking about fear. Not the kind that keeps you from danger, but the kind that shows up right before you make something new. That hesitation. The doubt. The feeling that maybe this time, you won’t pull it off.
That fear never really goes away. You don’t outgrow it. You learn to carry it. Creativity isn’t about waiting until you feel fearless, it’s about making something despite the fear. And then doing it again. And again. And again.

We are the result of so many influences, so many pressures, known and unknown. This is why it is very important to understand these pressures and influences, and be dissociated from them all
@ebookscafe
You know things will always work out for you, even if it doesn’t appear so at the time in hindsight many lessons plant seeds for future blessings — the art of unwavering faith.

In the past, jobs were about muscles. Now they’re about brains, but in the future, they’ll be about the heart

You don’t need a yacht or a private jet to be successful.
Just the ability to pick your kids up from school.
That’s the real flex
@ebookscafe
Every successful person had periods of their lives when it looked like they were doing nothing, then other periods when everything just happened all at once.

I read a quote that said
“The faster that you do the hard things you want to avoid, the faster you will receive the good things you actually want”
and that has changed my whole perspective.
