Almost had me in tears: "Results showed that paternal warmth and home learning stimulation positively predicted cognitive and social emotional skills." We don't need more urban school funding, we need more loving fathers excited about reading. That's how test scores rise!!!

Iโm on day 66/75 of 75 Hard. One of the many delights of this challenge is the 10 pages of reading each day. These books have been a great delight. Rescuing Ambition. My entire life I have struggled with balancing contentment and ambition. This is the first book I have read

See. Believe. Do.
"We cannot create that which we cannot imagine." This clip is remarkable. The Mountain randomly stops on a dime and drops into performance mode... Later that day he deadlifted 1,000+ lbs (beating everybody by over 50lbs) and made it look easier than he did here in his mind.

Matty has been one of my best friends since I was in 7th grade and he was in 8th grade. So since 1997. I love his honesty here and have no doubt his vulnerability will help a lot of people. Love you, Matty!
Maybe my people can't find me on here because I'm not being myself. I'm 41. My first job out of college was working for a startup that recycled used cell phones. My second job was at a brokerage buying/selling private jets. I've started half a dozen businesses. A mobile

Sounds overly simplified when you read it. But, I have found this to be 100% in my experience. I have won a lot of deals just by being available and prompt.
I am a master of consistency. 4 easy ways to differentiate yourself: 1. Be reliable, do what you say you are going to do 2. Be Honest 3. Show up on time 4. Reply promtply to emails I attribute the majority of my success to doing small, important things, over and over.
