Dealing with the temporary frustration of not making progress is an integral part of the path towards excellence. In fact, it is essential and something that every single elite athlete has had to learn to deal with. If the pursuit of excellence was easy, everyone would do it. Learn to enjoy and appreciate the process. This is especially important because you are going to spend far more time on the actual journey than with those all too brief moments of triumph at the end.

For each item on your todo list, ask yourself: “If this were the only thing I accomplished today, would I be satisfied with my day?” “Will moving this forward make all the other to-dos unimportant or easier to knock off later?” Put another way: “What, if done, will make all of the rest easier or irrelevant?

Read book: *Words that work*

Realize that life is happening **for us**, not **to us**

Four commonalities among amazing investors:

1. They cap their downside. Ask, what's the downside of doing this?
2. asymmetric risk and rewards
3. Diversify your portfolio
4. Be givers

When in doubt about your next creative project, follow your anger

Is there a common saying, or some public pronouncement, that you can disprove by making art about it? By doing a test? What makes you angry?

How do you know if you have A-players on your project team? You know it if they don’t just accept the strategy you hand them. They should suggest modifications to the plan based on their closeness to the details.
