PEOPLE ARE GREAT WHEN THINGS ARE GOING WELL, BUT THEY FALL APART WHEN THINGS AREN’T.

THE FOCUS ON TALENT DISTRACTS US FROM SOMETHING JUST AS IMPORTANT:
EFFORT.
WHERE DOES THIS FEAR COME FROM?

WITH EVERYTHING PERFECT WE DO NOT ASK HOW IT CAME TO BE, [INSTEAD] WE REJOICE IN THE PRESENT FACT AS THOUGH IT CAME OUT OF THE GROUND BY MAGIC.
Friedrich Nietzsche

NO ONE CAN SEE IN THE WORK OF THE ARTIST HOW IT HAS BECOME.
FOR IF WE THINK OF GENIUS AS SOMETHING MAGICAL, WE ARE NOT OBLIGED TO …FIND OURSELVES LACKING.
TO CALL SOMEONE ‘DIVINE’ MEANS: ‘HERE THERE IS NO NEED TO COMPETE.’
Friedrich Nietzsche

ENDURANCE IS RARE.ENTHUSIASM IS COMMON.

PASSION IS NOT FIREWORKS
▸ Passion is not Fireworks. Fireworks erupt in a blaze of glory but then fizzle and go away.
▸ Passion should be looked at like a compass. The thing that takes time to build, tinker with and finally get right that then guides you on your long road to where you want to be.
▸ The key is to hold the same goal for as long as you can.

RID YOUR FEARS BY PRIORITIZING YOUR GOALS
1. Write down your list of 25 career goals.
2. Do some soul searching and circle just the top 5 highest priority goals. ONLY FIVE.
3. Take a good look at the 20 you didn’t circle and AVOID THESE AT ALL COSTS.
WARREN BUFFETT AND WHAT HE SUPPOSEDLY TOLD HIS PILOT: 3 STEPS TO SUCCESS.
THE 20 YOU DIDN’T CIRCLE ARE WHAT DISTRACT YOU AND EAT AWAY TIME AND ENERGY — TAKING YOUR EYE FROM THE GOALS THAT MATTER MOST.

IF YOU PRIORITIZE YOUR GOALS IN THIS WAY WILL YOU BECOME A WORLD FAMOUS [FILL IN THE BLANK]?
PROBABLY NOT.
BUT YOU’LL STAND A BETTER CHANCE OF GETTING SOMEWHERE YOU CARE ABOUT — A BETTER CHANCE OF MOVING CLOSER TO WHERE YOU WANT TO BE.
Angela Duckworth
