I remember listening to this time and time again thinking to myself “man I really need to quit drinking it’s been messing up my life in so many ways.” I’m so proud of myself for gathering over 90 days of sobriety. God willing there will be many more months and many years of sobriety ahead thanks Dr. P for the extra nudge and all the encouragement!

As a business consultant, and coach, one of the very first things I work with my clients on is getting crystal clear as to what it is they they want. Focus is one thing but there’s no chance in hell for you if you don’t have clarity in what it is that you want first - otherwise every single goal you set will be meaningless and you’re going to fail almost every time. The second main point JP notes at the end is the critical nature of the value of time and we underestimate and undervalue this pathetically! When business owners complain they don’t have enough time - their real issue isn’t the numbers in the day (we are all given the same!) - the issue is in their inability to leverage their time well.

Jordan is the only professor any student need or ever needed!

I'm 70 years old now and one thing I learned you can plan, you can try to control every aspect of your life, you may think you are the captain the master of your sout.

I feel stuck, and I feel that the World has betrayed me, by discriminating against me for not getting vaccinated. I have isolated myself too much, and I feel that people have forgotten about me. It's not completely true, but I feel that way. They accepted the vaccine, and the discrimination that went with it. I must forgive everyone for not fighting back two years ago.

Problem I'm having is that I have really reinforced the idea that there is no life that I would really want.

It's not only unlikely, it's impossible to know exactly what your goal is before you've started: find something that looks like a goal you want in life, start working towards it, then if you find out it wasn't what you really wanted change, but keep moving! If nothing else you'll find out what you don't want and why, a great way to know thyself! Just don't stand still! A good way to find something you value is pondering about people that you admire or that inspire you: what do they have in common? Which traits makes you value them? Why? Who are you jealous of and why? That can be a great starting point. Good luck in your journey!
