Every pattern in your life repeats until you learn the lesson.

Most people quit in the middle of the chapter.
Not because they lack ability, but because they misread where they are as where they are going.
Keep going.
Be delusional enough to believe you can.
Be disciplined enough to prove it.
That's how you win.
EVERY "MASTER" WAS ONCE A DISASTER.
DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE MESSY BEGINNING.
The most dangerous person in the world
is the one who shows up every single day even when the rewards are uncertain.
The one who can tolerate the most uncertainty is the one who will eventually win.
Let us rid death of its strangeness, come to know it, get used to it. Let us have nothing on our minds as often as death. At every moment let us picture it in our imagination in all its aspects… It is uncertain where death awaits us; let us await it everywhere.
Premeditation of death is premeditation of freedom… He who has learned how to die has unlearned how to be a slave. Knowing how to die frees us from all subjection and constraint.
— Michel de Montaigne
Below note is the people who are still waiting!!!!
“How long will you wait before you demand the best of yourself, and trust reason to determine what is best?
You have been introduced to the essential doctrines, and claim to understand them.
So what kind of teacher are you waiting for that you delay putting these principles into practice until he comes?
You're a grown person already, not a child any more. If you remain careless and lazy, making excuse after excuse, fixing one day after another when you will finally take yourself in hand, your lack of progress will go unnoticed, and in the end you will have lived and died unenlightened.
[2] Finally decide that you are an adult who is going to devote the rest of your life to making progress. Abide by what seems best as if it were an inviolable law. When faced with anything painful or pleasurable, anything bringing glory or disrepute, realize that the crisis is now, that the Olympics have started, and waiting is no longer an option; that the chance for progress, to keep or lose, turns on the events of a single day.
[3] That's how Socrates got to be the person he was, by depending on reason to meet his every challenge. You're not yet Socrates, but you can still live as if you want to be him.
From Enchiridion /Epictetus
Key Takeaways from the Passage:
Stop Waiting:
You do not need another teacher, special circumstances, or more time to start living according to philosophy.
Take Responsibility: You are a "full-grown man" (or woman) capable of applying reason immediately.
Act Now: If you delay, you will live and die as an ordinary person rather than making progress.
The Contest is Now: Treat life as the Olympic Games; your progress is preserved or destroyed by your choices today.


People want to be led. That is the key for sales.
Since we agree on so many things, I trust we can amicably disagree on a few.
