• We put a man on the moon by breaking up the problem into smaller steps.
• There are two types of men in the world: those who conquer fear and those who suffer from it. —Alexander the Great
• Conquer fear by breaking it down.
• You make the same amount of money as the average of your 5 closest friends. — Jim Rohn
• Follow and learn about the billionaires, inventors, great men in history and you’ll start to think like them.
• If you’re going to learn something, only learn from the best (billionaires, inventors, professional coaches).
• Keep simple things simple.
• Complex things should be broken down to simpler steps, so don’t oversimplify.

• Audit the time consuming parts of your life.
• Example of audit:  commuting is a huge waste of time so always live close to where you work
