High Agency: Taking Charge of Your Own Life

One of the hardest skills in life is answering the question: What do you want to do? Not just once, but over and over again.

True leadership means:

  • Sticking with decisions when things get hard
  • Making hundreds of small adjustments
  • Taking ownership instead of waiting for a perfect plan

The Performance Formula

Performance = Potential - Impediments

Impediments are the things slowing you down. Most people blame physical things like lack of sleep. But the biggest impediments are mental - the stories you tell yourself about why you cannot succeed.

Fighter vs. Victim

Every morning you get a choice. You can be a fighter who pushes forward, or a victim who finds reasons to stay stuck.

The more you practice pushing forward, the stronger that mental muscle becomes.
