Self-Mastery
In my opinion Self-Mastery is the first step in pursuing wisdom, and here’s something that often goes unnoticed: Self-Mastery is what truly sets great people apart.
The most successful artists, athletes, and business leaders aren’t just lucky or naturally gifted.
They’ve learned to master their intentions and guide their feelings and urges.
This allows them to focus on what matters most and it enables them to consistently take the actions needed to reach their goals, even when faced with fear, doubt and discomfort.
This isn’t some unreachable skill reserved for the elite. It’s something anyone can learn—with patience, practice, and persistence.
Including you.
I don’t care what your goals are—writing the next great novel, climbing the corporate ladder, or finally keeping that houseplant alive—this stuff works wonders.
