For people with more brains then wealth...this is how we become extraordinary and separate from garden variety people⬇️ 1. Different habits 2. Different conversations 3. Different lifestyles 4. Different friends Prosperous people are not normal.

Live from Starbucks. 4 hours of study in. Learning how to actually write. 1# skill of marketing. This is what should be taught in schools. Immediate actions from me = writing headlines, getting feedback from others. Fun times ahead. Let's go!!!

As I got an early start to my day, I felt myself dragging. How do I quickly shift my energy? 1 simple 15 second habit... Beast Mode. Flexing my muscles. Increase my grit and mental strength. Boost my energy by %20. Beast Mode = confidence.

After a drive and kick out, the passer must re-space out to an empty spot on the court.  2. Off-ball players a single gap away from the drive must move with a push, pull or hold (if in the corner). Players further away may create a window for a pass or cut to increase the likelihood of the dominoes sequence ending with a wide open shot.
