A short motivational piece by Donald Burns arguing that reinvention begins with self-awareness: identify the habits, routines, and mindsets holding you back, then make a concrete plan to replace them with new habits and skills.
How do you actually reinvent yourself? It all starts with self awareness. You need to take a hard look at yourself and ask, what's actually holding me back? What habits, routines, what mindsets are keeping me stuck? What do I need to let go of in order to move forward? Now, once you've identified what's holding you back, you need to make a plan. What do you need to change? What new habits do you need to develop? What skills do you need to learn?
If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
