The same thing that discourages some motivates others. Another person’s well-being, their neighbor’s prosperity. A car, a house, a trip. Some feel attacked by this; others feel motivated.

The second group believes by default; they don’t consider it might be a lie because they know that when you believe something is achievable, you end up seeing the path to achieve it. Where some find an excuse, others find a reason. There are people achieving more with less effort. The only thing separating you is what each person knows and how they put it into practice, nothing more. ​Join my mentorship - Only $24.90 - LAUNCHING PRICE​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

You probably know it. 1999 NASA lost the Mars Climate Orbiter. One team supplied data in English units. The other expected metric. The spacecraft travelled for nine months before the mistake became everybody’s problem. That is a very long journey to discover you needed one awkward conversation. Now, I’m not suggesting you’re about to lose a spacecraft. Your project or your job has its own ways of making you miserable. You sit in a meeting. Someone says, “The contractor has accepted that...
A few of you have complained that the prices of some courses in The Room have gone up. And that The Room itself costs more now. Yes. That’s true. Look. The feedback I keep getting is that I’m practically giving away 20 years of PPP experience for peanuts. So I’ve decided to make the peanuts slightly more expensive. As I say on every course page, prices will never go down. They can only go up. And look… they already have. If you’re already inside The Room, your price is yours for life. If you...
