The secret to outstanding achievement is not talent but grit.

Don't be afraid to set ambitious goals: they will inspire you a lot.

Consistently put forth the effort to make yourself the best you can be.

The rest will follow.

Comparing yourself to others is the biggest waste of time.


Comparing yourself to other people may seem like a good way to motivate yourself, but it actually focuses you away from what you really want for yourself and what is best for you in your own life.


When you refocus on who you are, the journey you are on, and the choices that you are making for yourself, you can move forward with greater strength, clarity and happiness.

The more you know what you stand for, the more confident you will be.

If you don’t play the risk game while you’re young you’re going to play the blame game while you’re old.

Where there’s a challenge, there’s a chance to prove doubters wrong.

Keeping dreams pure is a challenge. Society has a way of destroying them.

If it is something you believe in, go for it!

You create excellence out of habit.

You can’t make a habit out of excellence.

When you're willing to work on your craft or business and put in the hours when everyone else is sleeping, you start pulling away from the pack.

Quick Reframing Lesson:

Stop calling things "problems".

Call them situations.

This slight change in terminology will change your approach to the whole thing.

You've seen me tweet one of these two:

"There are no problems, only solutions"

Or

"There are no problems to solve, only situations to deal with."

I mean it.

If you see things as complex problems (with all the negativity that word bears), you will find it harder to get through it.

Calling it a situation prepares you to deal with it with more calm and composure.

Additional tip:

Affirm 3 to 4 times throughout your day:

"I have no problem in my life"

Even if you do have some.

What this will do is condition you to see things as less complex and more approachable.

Trust me, it's more about how you see it than what it really is.

Have a nice weekend.

It’s a simple thing of math — the more time you put into it, the better you get.

The first thing you should buy with money is a healthier lifestyle.

It’s okay to have bad days, we all have them.

It’s how you respond that counts.

You disrespect yourself when you are not becoming the best version of yourself.

Your entire life changes the day that you decide you will no longer accept mediocrity for yourself.

No worse addictions for a young man than porn, sugar, and comfort.
