way performances best-way
The best way to improve mental performance, is to improve physical performance
life people scary
Uncertainty and the prospect of failure can be very scary noises in the shadows. Most people will choose unhappiness over uncertainty.
thinking acting enough
It isn't enough to think outside the box. Thinking is passive. Get used to acting outside the box.
hard-work thinking priorities
If you don't have time, the truth is, you don't have priorities. Think harder; don't work harder.
inspirational positive inspiring
What we fear doing most is usually what we most need to do.
book weekend years
I gauge success in years, not weeks. The weekend box-office approach to book launches is short sighted and encourages crappy books.
jobs stress thinking
People really do think they have to choose between high stress and high reward jobs, and low stress and low reward jobs.
jobs mean entrepreneur
A recession is very bad for publicly traded companies, but it's the best time for startups. When you have massive layoffs, there's more competition for available jobs, which means that an entrepreneur can hire freelancers at a lower cost.
inspirational years class
The golden years become lower-middle-class life revisited. That's a bittersweet ending.
inspirational school fighting
Learn to be difficult when it counts. In school as in life, having a reputation for being assertive will help you receive preferential treatment without having to beg or fight for it every time.
inspirational fighting rights
The bottom line is that you only have the rights you fight for.
