What's a personal practice that kind of helps you get into a powerful state that you want to be in?

First key if you're not where you want to be is you got to feed and strengthen your mind. Jim Rohn was my original teacher, and he used to have this simple practice. He used to say, tony, every day you got to stand guard at the door of your mind. He asked me a question. I remember your worst enemy. Put sugar in your coffee. What's going to happen? I said, you have sweet coffee. He goes, what if your best friend or your parent or your. Or your lover by accident drops one drop of strychnine in your coffee? What's going to happen is you'd be dead. He goes, that's right. Life is both sugar and strict night. So you better watch your coffee, stand guard at the door of your mind. And the way he used to say that is every day, take 30 minutes of your day and read. Where you pick up a book and you read something that has philosophy or psychology or skill, where you are immersing yourself for 30 minutes in improving who you are.
