Create

We are taught to compete. Competition sets the upper bar for what you can achieve.

If you want to jump over that bar, you need to create. Do things differently and do different things.

Creating requires stepping away from competition and focusing on the game that is uniquely yours. A game where you bring your true, best, authentic self to the fore.

Competition is for amateurs. Professionals create.

Make Things..

Excuses are easily accessible. You can cook them up. It’s always easier to blame external situations for our failures or lack of attempt. You can play a victim and soon, the world with sympathize with you.

On the other hand, effort to make things is also easily accessible once we get past our victim mindset. The locus of control is internal. The call it “Growth Mindset”.

Make things, not excuses.

Give More Than You Get..

givemore

When you consistently deliver more value than you get, the universe finds a way to deliver more value back to you.

It’s not linear.

There is no instant gratification.

But it works.

The less we know..

Enough

Enough.. eludes us if we are blinded by ego and everything that feeds it (money, power, status, followers…).

Knowing what’s enough is the key to contentment, satisfaction and possibly happiness.

Motion is NOT Progress

Handwritten notes from my journal

“Never mistake motion for action,” said Ernest Hemingway.

The fact that we remain busy through the day doesn’t mean we are progressing.

Positive movement requires that we ruthlessly prioritize, step back to reflect, seek feedback from people we trust and act purposefully.
