Push your limits. Stay up late. Have the strength you need. Decide you can go the distance.

Sleep Or Achieve?
As always, it depends. What are the details?
Sleep is great if you’ve just achieved something worthwhile to you. Though, so is celebrating! (Step 7 in my book) ✅
Fear Focus
Expecting disaster in any aspect of life is a good way to invite mental health issues.
Very many newspapers, news radio, news media, some recording artists and many individuals focus on fear and disillusionment. It is a road to horrible.
As Yoda said in Star Wars, “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”
When you consume trash, expect trash in your system.
You can change this. Ween yourself off of the news. Unless you’ve met someone, or listen to people who have spent significant time with them, then you are being used by the media to think certain things and in certain ways about that person or event.
Of the thousands of pieces of information that they could feed you, they’ll feed you the spiciest so you’ll keep coming back. However, like just about anything in excess, you’ll start to regret having any.
Focus on positive words, reports, sayings, activities and people. Let the rest land where it may, but don’t let it be in your lap.
Uncertainty
Uncertainty usually creates anxiety. It is not a pleasant state to be in. The best cure for this is certainty. We get certainty by taking action and getting results.
Any result, good or bad, can reduce the uncertainty and therefore anxiety. So when in doubt, get moving toward your goal and create outcomes.
See The Plan Ahead
Like Ollie Watkins said, he and Palmer had a plan for Palmer to feed it to him and he’d put it in.
Plan it. See it. Do it.
Become a legend.
Be Confident
Throw your shoulders back, bring your chin up a little, smile and say, “Of course they want me, I’m quite good”.
Walk around like that all day for a couple of weeks and watch your life change. A lot of success in life is about being confident. If you appreciate all the things you have done and all your experiences, it is easier to see why you should be confident and ready for everything going forward.
You may not start off brilliant, but knowing you’ll get better with effort is so important. Because at least you’ll try!
Be confident. Sometimes that’s all you have.
Less Is More
Less hurry is more calm.
Less distracted is more focused.
Less loose spending is more retirement savings.
Less shouting down others is more finding common ground.
And finally, less demanding is more receiving.
Play Fair
Just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should. Play the game in the spirit of which it was intended, not how far you can bend the rules to your favour.
It’s nice to win. It is also nice to be the party in power. However, people don’t like being played or seeing things that truly seem unfair.
The pendulum swings harder and further to the other side when people try to keep it in their favour too long.
Enjoy your time at the top but learn how to let go and let the natural changes occur.
Play Hard
Whatever your game is, play hard and play to win. Stay within the rules but play with intensity and desire.
Find Your Vibe And Your Tribe.
Look and you shall find. Define your vibe and tribe and then go out and find them.
They are out there and will welcome you wholeheartedly. You just have to make the effort to find them.
