Professionals stick to the schedule; amateurs let life get in the way. - James Clear

Research has shown that once a person believes in a particular aspect of their identity, they are more likely to act in alignment with that belief.

Objects in motion tend to stay in motion. Find a way to get started in less than two minutes.

Don't let a title become a trap.

• "I have to be a doctor."
• "I need to get into that school."
• "I can't quit this job—it's Google."

There are many ways to live an amazing life. Stop thinking about the status of this particular title and focus on the substance of what you want. You'll often find there are many ways to get similar amounts of joy, purpose, or freedom.

If you attach your happiness to a single path, you'll become blind to other wonderful opportunities around you. And many of them might be a better fit for you or deliver a similar result with less struggle.
