Hard work opens doors and shows the world that you are serious about being one of those rare - and special - human beings that uses the fullness of their talents for the highest and the very best.

You don't get lucky. You create lucky.

What you resist will persist; what you befriend, you will transcend.

When you see yourself as a powerful creator of your conditions, you'll see opportunities to get to your goals - and dreams - all around you.

A runner doesn't just show up and win a race. He trains long and hard. Do you just show up every day and hope to win?

They may be smarter than you. They may have more money than you. They may come from a different city or a better family. But they can NEVER outwork you. And they can NEVER outprepare you. And they just can't outpractice you. And that's why you'll win.

Clarity precedes mastery. Craft clear and precise plans/goals/deliverables. And then block out all else.
