ADVICE

Decide, Don't Just Want

  • Decide rather than merely want; a decision removes doubt and forces action.
  • Choose one major decision at a time and sacrifice other priorities to make it happen.
INSIGHT

Reframing Work As Privilege

  • Turning a crushing workload into a privilege reframes effort as honor, not burden.
  • That mental shift makes sustained, intense work feel unstoppable.
ADVICE

Build Systems To Win

  • After you decide, build systems to guarantee the outcome instead of relying on willpower.
