The Importance of Focusing on the Process

I think the takeaway lesson is that you always have to focus on the process not the outcome. 2007 was a real shit year for me some of it was made by some bad decisions but yeah I don't see it as a failure, just kind of say like okay well now I see why that was a dumb decision and that was a smart decision. You know controlling what you can control because you can't control the outcome soYeah do you have any unconventional values or philosophies that you live by they all seem pretty normal to me  "Whatever scares you go do it" "If you keep following that compass then things in life don't scare you loveIt certainly hard to do."
