 Episode notes 
Focus On What You Can Control
- Put behind you what you can't do and focus on what you can control right now.
- Do what you can do first, because facts of life can't be fixed immediately.
Starve Fear, Feed Courage
- Reduce fear by putting it behind you and intentionally put courage before you.
- Take action because courage activates progress and attracts resources, people, and ideas.
Consistency Beats Intensity
- Consistency compounds over time and outperforms short bursts of intensity.
- If you're persistent you may get results; if you're consistent you will keep them.
