Notes

Stepping in shit is inevitable so let’s either see it as good luck or figure out how to do it less often

Persist, pivot or concede. It’s up to us, our choice every time

Moods are momentary, intent is momentous

‘Don’t walk into a place like you want to buy it, walk in like you own it’

Knowing the truth, seeing the truth and telling the truth are all different experiences

‘Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say and not giving a damn’

That’s what we all want - to believe in and be believed in. We all must earn belief in ourselves first and then for each other

Cool never tries, cool just is

Less impressed, more involved

If you’re not a starter and you think you should be, give em no choice in the decision. Play so well it’s undeniable

When you can, ask yourself if you want before you do

We have to prepare to have freedom. We have to do the work to then do the job. We have to prepare for the job so we can be free to do the work

Reach beyond your grasp, have immortal finish lines and turn your red light green because a roof is a man made thing

Don’t invent dreams, it’ll come on its own

Just because the seats are empty doesn’t mean they’re not taken. Sometimes the guest list needs to be for one - you

Sometimes we have to leave what we know to find out what we know

Sometimes which choice you made is not as important as making a choice and committing to it

Educate before you indict

It is not about win or lose, it is about do you accept the challenge

The arrow doesn’t seek the target, the target draws the arrow

The great man is not all to each, he is each to all. The genius can do anything but does one thing at a time

It’s not a risk unless you can lose the fight

‘If everything we did was right, we’d never know what was wrong’

‘What is success to me?’ Continue to ask yourself that question

Live your legacy now

The soul objective - live with the end in mind
