Don't disappoint yourself

Your focus matters

When you focus on the solution or the way forward rather than the pity of the problem, results follow.

In bad company?

You should be capable of being alone or in solitude. You also should be comfortable in a group. That's how we are designed. If one or both are a major issue for you, then you know where to start your work.

It might be you...

We often think the problem is someone else when it's really us. It's not a bad thing. It's easier to correct when you're the issue 😂

Want the excuse or the life?

There's enough excuses to go around forever. The question will always be, are you willing to put in the work and leave behind the excuses?

Where you put your focus

Sure, you need to be aware of and respect your opponents skill and training. That doesn't mean to negate your own. That doesn't mean to focus on that. You also train, have skills, have knowledge, etc. Focus on that and you'll go further.
