What people CAN do is very different from what they WILL do.

The "I've tried everything" story ensures failure. You must create an empowering story that recognizes that everyone has failed a lot but successful people have found a way to rebound until they succeed.

Time is one of the biggest issues you'll see. People just do not know how to maximize their time. The way in which you execute and utilize time is everything. And most people push up against the threshold of their control.

High self-esteem comes from feeling like you have control over events not that events have control over you.

If you change nothing, nothing will change.

See things the way they are not worse than they are
