Elite Minds: Creating the Competitive Advantage

“This is what you want—a goal that will get your full attention. One that will get your adrenaline flowing and make you feel like you are approaching the edge. We are almost finished. Now rewrite your goal so that you only have a 60 percent chance of success and a 40 percent chance of failure. That’s your goal.”

How you spend your time will dictate what you ultimately become.

But you have to risk getting lost because chasing a dream—really chasing it—will lead you to places you never thought were out there. Places no one else would ever care (or dare) to go if they knew about them ahead of time.

“Did I get better today? Did I move another step towards my goal, my full potential?”

When a group of people have become adept at telling themselves the truth, they will automatically begin telling each other the truth.

In order for you to reach your potential, you must know how you respond to poor performance. This is critical information you simply cannot move forward without.

The Disney quote read: “It’s kind of fun to do the impossible.”

It isn’t sufficient just to want. You’ve got to ask yourself what you are going to do to get the things you want. – Franklin D. Roosevelt

I encourage people to forget about what they want to have or possess—it’s a waste of time.
