Understand that life-improving changes almost always get “worse first” before they get better.
Everything you want is on the other side of worse first.
Choose Your Suffering: There is no completely safe, struggle-free path in life. Since you are going to face challenges either way, choose a path that is worth suffering for.
“Life is suffering, so pick something worth suffering for.”
If you stay excited about one specific pursuit for a decade or longer, there is no obstacle that won’t eventually yield to your accumulated growth.
Ignore the “How” Initially: Do not let the logistics or fear of how you will achieve a dream kill the dream itself. Draft a bold vision of your life five years from now, put blinders on to align your daily actions, and let the execution fall into place.
The “How” is the killer of all great dreams.
