Read This If You Don't Think You Have An Enemy

It could be a person.

It could be a substance.

It could be a disease.

It could be a thought.

It could be someone else's thought.

It could be anything.

Whomever or whatever your enemy is . . .

"Your enemy thanks you for not giving 100%, today."

- unknown

I stole this little quote from military culture.

Powerful, isn't it?

Now that you feel that way . . . you're accountable.

2 Minute Action:

Maybe it's a gratitude letter to an old boss.

Maybe it's a monthly payment to UNICEF.

Maybe it's telling someone the constructive truth.

You pick.

We're all counting on you to make something important and meaningful happen today and it could be something that takes 2 minutes or less to start or finish.

Read This If You Want Every Day To Be Good

Some days are good.

Some days I do not perform the way I'd hoped.

Some days I perform well but my environment prevents my success.

Some days my environment has ideal conditions and I squander my opportunity.

What's important is accepting that it is impossible for every day to be good.

What's hard is fighting onward anyway, in spite of that voice that says "this is pointless."

What's hard is seeking improvement when you know perfection is impossible.

2 Minute Action:

You can, in 2 minutes, make up your mind.
You can either choose to seek improvement despite the challenges, or you can opt-out.

Remember that the outcome doesn't matter because it has nothing to do with you if you've already made your mind up.

Read This If You're Not Doing Enough

You could be doing more.

You could.

And then what?

Could you do more after that?

The trick isn't doing more.

The trick is doing what matters and nothing more.

At some point, after you've been taking action after action after action, you must realize what is important and what isn't.

The hard part, then, isn't taking action or doing more, it's discernment.

You decide what is enough.
