“When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love.”
Stressed? Be mindful of your breathing.
Breathing is the only bodily process that is under voluntary and involuntary control.
When we feel the shortness of breath and notice breathing as a voluntary action we can use techniques to send it to autopilot where it belongs.

99% of the time, business sucks. The things you try don't work the way you think they will. The expenses you plan for are bigger than you planned. The people you bring in aren't as good as you thought they'd be.

Make goals if you want to win one time.
Use systems if you want to win every time.
