Monday Motivation

Good morning! I took today's motivation from Alex Hormozi with Acquisition.com. He's a motivational marketer extraordinaire, entrepreneur and philanthropist.

"A young samurai once asked a Zen master how long it would take to achieve mastery. "10 years," the master said.

The samurai, eager to speed things up, asked "What if I work twice as hard and practice day and night?"

The master replied: "20 years."

When the confused samurai asked why it would take longer, the master explained: "If you have one eye fixed on your destination, you only have one eye left to find your way."

In other words, as Warren Buffet so eloquently stated, "you can't have a baby in a month by getting 9 girls pregnant!"

Why does that work, though??? With speed, you skip the fundamentals. You don’t build systems. You chase shortcuts.

But success isn’t built on rushing. It’s built on consistent action, strong foundations, and the patience to embrace the process.

Mastery isn’t about getting there first; it’s about getting there right.

This week and next, slow down, focus on the next right step, and trust that the journey will take you exactly where you’re meant to be.

You’ve got this! 💪
