Self confidence is the ability to exercise restraint in the face of disrespect and still show respect in response.
I cannot tell you how long it takes for your exercise to work. If you haven't seen any results in a year or six months you're doing something wrong.
Actions speak louder than words. All companies say they care, right? But few actually exercise that care.
You have to have a patience for exercise.
Leadership is like exercise. Do it everyday, the results take time but you will see them. It's the little things.
You have to have a patience for exercise. You have to have a patience for college. You have to have a patience for relationships. Once the momentum gets going it takes on a life all of its own.
What I understand about this concept of why is that it functions exactly the same way as parenting or exercise or any of these things we claim to invest in.
We pursue exercise even though empirically we see no benefit from the energy we're spending and we're hurting. So empirically we should quit. The why is exactly the same thing. You persist even though there are some short-term stresses and even though there is some uncertainty.
I know if I persist it will pay back in dividends and it always does. What starts to happen is like exercise, the pain goes away. It starts to get easier and the weight starts to get lighter and people start to notice a difference in you and you start to notice a difference in yourself. You find your ability to make decisions is easier; you find you are inspired more often. You find your success increases. You find that your random moments when you're in the flow are no longer random and you can control them. Other people notice the difference.
