To curious minds,
Happy Three Point Thursday.
Here’s 3 quotes I’m thinking about:
“The bar has never been set lower. A bit of consistency, a bit of intentionality, a bit of resilience and a gram of talent will make you into an absolute killer.”
—Chris Williamson
“Be more than motivated, be more than driven, become literally obsessed to the point where people think you're fucking nuts.”
—David Goggins
“If you are even remotely a savage, you will run these people over. It’s all out there for the taking right now.”
—Dana White
In a world full of perpetually stoned video game addicts destroying themselves, weary alcoholics who scoff at energized gym rats, people who watch other people have sex through a screen more than they talk to the opposite sex in the real world, cheap dopamine devils scrolling their lives away, and hordes of enslaved minds excessively consuming mass-market news and entertainment…
Stay disciplined. Stay focused. You’re winning just by understanding the power of delayed gratification. Of long-term thinking. Most people don’t anymore. Keep following your curiosity. Keep working with intensity. The effort is the reward itself.
La vita è bella,
Jeff

Great quotes. I just listened to David Goggins audiobook, Can't Hurt Me, on audio while doing my daily bike rides. I swear I'd wind up riding twice as far and fast just having this guy's mindset and stories nuking my brain. Insane story.
Love the process more than the results
