Where high-performing leaders get stuck. The secret sauce of Jeff Bezos.
When did you last ask yourself, “Where am I getting this wrong?”
Managing Your Mind: The Only Skill That Matters
Here’s a bold statement for you: managing your own mind is the only skill you need to master to achieve anything in life.
Prove me wrong.
With enough tenacity, consistency, learning, and action—all of which depend on what’s happening in your head—there’s nothing a human hasn’t achieved, even from the humblest of circumstances.
A friend shared a video of Jeff Bezos with me.
It wasn’t just inspiring—it pushed me to download a 2-hour podcast and grab his biography.
Why?
I needed to upgrade my thinking.
Conversations That Shift Perspectives
Recently, I spoke with a seasoned consultant.
I shared with him, that I scheduled 10 more conversations with heads of consulting firms.
Why?
Because my current thinking is optimized for what I have right now—NOT what I want.
I read this in a book on system thinking.
Every system is optimized for the result it’s getting right now.
You are perfect for what you have - now.
That’s why you are there.
??Your Thinking = Your Results
The reason you have what you have today?
Your current mindset.
Nothing more, nothing less.
Want different results?
Start by changing your mind.

Most people are so in love with their own thoughts that they never realize those very thoughts are holding them back.
They’d rather be right than grow.
The Shortcut to Success
There’s one.
Borrow other people’s playbooks.
The main difference between you and someone ahead of you?
The way they think.
And here’s the best part—you can change that.
You can change that today, in fact.
?Action Steps to Upgrade Your Thinking
PS It’ll feel like it’s all wrong. And that’s exactly the point.
Most people want to be right.
Be the person who wants to grow.
Rewrite your playbook.
That’s where transformation begins.
I love this example from Alex Hormozi and his weight loss and gymming days. People would come to him and say, ”Well, this program sounds cool, but can we have breakfast like the one I’m having now? Dude, this breakfast got you the body you are in now!??”
