What is going on everybody? Welcome back to the Mind Over Macros Podcast. As always, I am your

host Mike Milner. Happy New Year. This is the first episode, well I should say the first recording of

2023, not necessarily the first episode, but it's nice to feel like we've got a fresh

start and I think this is officially four years that I've been doing

almost four years that I've been doing this show so if you are an OG day one listener thank you from the bottom of my heart,

even if you are a new listener

and this is your first time hearing the show,

thank you as well.

Hope, 2023 is an incredible year.

And before we start acting like, this is the year that we get everything we desire

I want to provide a quote from Stephen Bartlett that actually sums this up brilliantly

he said I'm not viewing 2023 as the year I get everything.

2023 is the year I continue to plant seeds, develop my self-awareness,

learn more, and take another step to becoming the best version of me.

And I think if we all resonate and harness that message,

it is truly the approach that we should all take because this is a time where it's very easy to fantasize

about all the things that are going to come your way and I hope it is the year that a lot of

positive things come your way but it is life and life has a way of putting us in our place and humbling us and being uncertain and unpredictable.

So with that, the things that we can control we can control developing more self-awareness

we can control planning seeds that will help the future version of ourselves we

can control learning more and taking steps towards becoming the people that we want to become.

Those are the things that we can control. A lot of the stuff we can't so let's not make this a big bold statement of this is the year that everything happens.
