Our love of stability keeps us where we are= stuck.
Rather than waste your time being stressed about making the right decision and MAKE THE DECISION RIGHT. You can only live one life so you can't make a comparison which is why regret is mindless- the choice you didn't take you are presuming would have been better but you have know way of knowing.
Life is full of trade-offs. Every choice has a cost. When you say yes to one thing, you say no to others. This is how the world works. It’s like gravity. You can’t escape it. Opportunity cost is what you give up when you make a choice. It’s the thing you can’t have because you picked something else. Wisdom is anticipating the consequences of your choices. In life and business, success is about making good trade-offs. It’s not about having it all. It’s about having what matters most.
Create an environment that brings about the changes you want- If a riverbed remains unchanged, the water will continue to flow along the path it always has, since that is the most natural route for it to take. If the underlying structures of your life remain unchanged, the greatest tendency is for you to follow the same direction your life has always taken.
You are under no obligation to be the same person you were five minutes ago.
Growth requires mental flexibility and a willingness to unclear
The longer we wait, the greater the fear. Action reduces fear.
Goal in life is to have a razor thin gap between your awareness and the action associated with that awareness. Problem w/ self help content...it's dopamine from information. You get the awareness and you feel good bc you have the awareness but what are you doing about it? Where is the action? You need to shrink that gap...that's how you change your life.
Fear is a sensation. Courage is a decision.
Failure = Feedback- Be a detective- a science experiment.
Rejection = Redirection
Problems aren't obstacles to opportunity, they ARE the opportunity.
Wrong decisions are part of life. Being able to make them work anyway is one of the abilities of those who are successful.
Don't let your past determine your future.
Everyone gets knocked down; the difference is who stays down. The longer you lie there the harder it is to get back up. Getting up in the only way forward.
Try Your Best and don’t get attached to the outcome.
Everything worth doing is hard – and the more worth doing it is, the harder. Hard choices, easy life. Easy choices, hard life.
I made the best decision I could at the time.
Did I put in the time? Did I work as hard as I could?
You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.
