Happy 4 For You (44Y) Friday,
?
Happy Friday all!? Onto this week's newsletter ??
?
1) ?The size of your network is your net worth.? 3 tips to expand your network: 1) Be curious and observant.? 2) Be humble and coachable.? 3) Make a goal to meet 100 people in 100 days.? This last one is rocket fuel.? ?????
2) Opportunity cost is highly overlooked.? When we say yes, we say no to every other potential opportunity out there.? Always be thinking of opportunity cost instead of what’s being offered up to you right now and be empowered to say no and happy with that regret.
3) Clear & immediate feedback is a shortcut to excel at anything.? All too often, feedback is delayed or not clear (i.e needs to be hyper specific), and we end up repeating the same damaging mistake.? Ask someone you know to be observant of your blindspots and be humble enough to hear and adjust for the next time around. ?
4) Struggling with focus, put your favourite music track on repeat and let that play in the background as a loop.? It’s what's called a Flow trigger.? A prompt that drives you into Flow.

Until next week,
