Notes
- Man can do what he wills, but not will what he wills -
- You don’t need to be smarter than others to outperform them if you can out-position them.
- If there is a tagline to my life, it is “Mastering the best of what other people have already figured out,”
- the question of what your goals are in the first place - start with that for OSE, not last
- In order to get the results we desire, we must do two things. We must first create the space to reason in our thoughts, feelings, and actions; and second, we must deliberately use that space to think clearly.
- While the rest of us are chasing victory, the best in the world know they must avoid losing before they can win. It turns out this is a surprisingly effective strategy.
