LESSONS LEARNED

Sometimes those with exceptional talents have a hard time staying on the path of mastery.  

1987 interviewed athletes who said that hard work and experience over raw talent. 

When setting a new goal enjoy the process, not just the destination. I would add to that in anything in life enjoy the process not just the end goal. 

There are fast learners and slow learners. Both have positive and negative to them. Fast learners sometimes don't take the steps and time necessary to really learn a new craft. Slow learners can take longer but in the end, can have a better skill set. 

Positive people get sick less than negative people. 

Acknowledge the negative but Accentuate the positive. I love this and feel like I have tried hard to be this person. It is not what happens to you in life it is how you choose to react to it. 

How to get more energy to do things. Exercise more! do the thing that you think you don't have the energy for and it will give you more energy. 

Dedicate to life long learning.
