0:00.0	This is Optimal Living Daily Episode 1783, three exciting facts about goals that no one talks about.
0:06.8	Part 2 by Benjamin Hardy of Benjamin Hardy.com and I'm Justin Mollick. Happy middle of the week
0:13.2	Wednesday and welcome to the old podcast, the OLD podcast Optimal Living Daily, where I read to you
0:19.6	like a big ongoing audiobook from many different authors. Today being a continuation from yesterday,
0:24.9	so I'd recommend listening to yesterday's episode first, but for now let's get right to part 2

1:49.7	Your success becomes inevitable when you stop avoiding growth, and instead, it becomes your quest,
1:56.4	joy, and obsession. Indeed, you can get to the point where you thrive under pressure. You can
