Chapters
when you combine any ambition with infinite patience, it can all be achieved. And so my goal is not to be a billionaire personally. That could happen. My goal is not to start 250 companies. Who knows? That could happen. But when you're willing to set a goal, and I know what mine is, and pair it with infinite patience, it's incredibly powerful because it then frees you, and it frees you from feeling like, I didn't get as far as I wanted this year, I'm a failure. Just let it go. Just decide, I will go as long as it takes.
Play the long game, folks. You're not going to get multiplication overnight. It's going to take some time for your efforts to multiply. But if you stay in the game, all of that early effort has a chance to kind of stay engaged and contribute to your forward progress.
