Two years, not two months.

The visible progress you're hoping for usually comes slower than you'd like. Even with consistent effort it can take a long time before progress feels significant. It might be a year of writing and editing before the book really starts to come together. You may need two years of recovery from a major injury before you notice just how far you've come. It may take two years of yoga before you realize how flexible you have become.

Take a deep breath, stop worrying about immediate results, and settle into a nice routine.

If you feel resistance before you begin, it's usually procrastination and you need to get started. 

If you feel resistance after you begin, it's usually feedback and you need to make adjustments.

The secret of creative work is to make a lot and publish a little. 

Don't underestimate the power of giving yourself permission to create junk. Most of what you create will be mediocre or bad. 

But that's okay. You only have to show people the good stuff. Make 100 things, discard 90, and share the 10 best. Create, create, create. Edit, edit, edit.

It's easy to assume that getting rich in money will also mean you are rich in time, but it is often the case that when you earn more money, you end up with less time and more responsibilities. 

Being rich is nice, but what you really want to optimize for is (1) an income that exceeds your spending by a healthy margin and (2) a lifestyle that is free from rushing.

How to connect with others: 
Share with someone who wants to listen or listen to someone who wants to share.

There are all kinds of cheat codes lying around, but they usually look boring. People will routinely ignore things that already work for the hope of a slightly easier path. The cheat code is the work you're avoiding.

There are many ways to win in business, but there is one surefire way to lose: run out of money. Entrepreneurship is a game of survival.
