The Sovereign Edge — #2

 


Words from the winners. Insights for the builders.

99% of healthy people don’t do fancy workouts. They just go to the gym and do their boring routine. 99% of successful investors don’t trade stocks. They just buy and hold good index funds. 99% of entrepreneurs don’t travel around the world closing deals. They just find a few processes that make them money, and they execute and optimize those processes daily. Success comes from doing boring, useful things over and over again. Simplicity and consistency get results.


Roger Federer on the kind of talent you can practice:

Yes, talent matters. I’m not going to stand here and tell you it doesn’t. But talent has a broad definition. Most of the time, it’s not about having a gift. It’s about having grit. In tennis, like in life, discipline is also a talent. And so is patience. Trusting yourself is a talent. Embracing the process — loving the process — is a talent. Managing your life, managing yourself. These can be talents, too. Some people are born with them. Everybody has to work at them.”


The fastest way to become amazingly confident is to become dangerously competent.


Track everything. Your time, your thoughts, your habits, your sleep, your words. What you don’t measure, you don’t master. Progress isn’t accidental, it’s audited. Treat your life like a high-performance machine, and you'll stop living like everyone else.  


The secret to success in almost all fields is large, uninterrupted blocks of focused time. — Ryan Holiday


I hope this added value in your week.

Keep building. 🔥
