Most people see their mindset as being synonymous with their identity.
Eg. I *feel* down therefore "I must be depressed".
This way of thinking f*cks up your self-confidence and stops you from growing.
You are the corporation and your mind is a part of that corporation.
Just like any department, it's a resource you can train, manage and improve.
You can't perform at your peak if you don't sleep well.
Poor sleep often goes hand-in-hand with a weak mindset.
Mindset training teaches you how to manage your stress, worries and anxieties which allows you to hit the hay with a clear mind.
We live in a time where choosing what to learn is just as important as how we learn.
Training your mind makes you an active learner.
You'll learn only what's useful, learn faster, retain better, have better ideas and turn those ideas into execution.
Mindset training expands your focus and concentration levels.
While everyone else gets distracted with the wide range of dopamine heavy content coming from their phones
you can tap into your powers of concentration and go DEEP on a topic and become an expert.
Most of your fears are irrational.
Mindset training helps you confront your fears and 10x your confidence.
You'll learn to dance with pain rather than hide from it.
You'll grow while others plateau or go backwards.
Do you suffer from procrastination, perfectionism and self-doubt?
Or can you sit down and pump out 3,4 or even 8 hours of quality work in a day?
A huge side effect of a strong mind is being ultra productive.
You'll start to hate time wasting.
Most people make emotionally charged and therefore poor decisions.
When your mindset is strong
you'll make clear decisions that weighs both the pros and cons while giving you the flexibility to iterate if necessary.
Research shows we have 10s of THOUSANDS of thoughts each day.
For most people, a majority of these thoughts are self-critical.
With mindset training most of your thoughts will either be positive and supportive.
It's like having..
When you do well, you'll get more encouragement.
When you do bad, you'll get useful feedback and find practical ways to improve.

4/ Before the arrival of recorded music, what used to be scarce was the actual music itself — required an in-person artist.
After recorded music, the music itself became abundant and what became scarce was curation, distribution, and self space.
5/ Similarly, in careers, what used to be (more) scarce were things like ideas, money, and exclusive relationships.
In the internet economy, what has become scarce are things like specific knowledge, rare & valuable skills, and great reputations.

I'm increasingly interested in the idea of "personal moats" in the context of careers.

Moats should be:
- Hard to learn and hard to do (but perhaps easier for you)
- Skills that are rare and valuable
- Legible
- Compounding over time
- Unique to your own talents & interests https://t.co/bB3k1YcH5b

- Many "awards"
