“Practice "zero-based thinking" in every part of your life. Ask yourself continually, "If I were not doing this already, knowing what I now know, would I start doing it again today?"

that repels you from ever doing the things that you need to do to be successful.
If you admire successful people, you create a positive force field of attraction
