0:00.0	When I think about how I have gotten to where I am today, there are three key mindsets and habits that spring to the surface, and I want to share those with you today.
0:09.7	These are also things that I notice fairly consistently in the high performers that I get to meet and interview on the podcast, and they are universally applicable.
0:17.5	If you do, these three things, you will be moving the needle in a real way
0:21.3	toward the life that you want to live. And I am not just talking about career success or
0:25.6	financial success. I am talking about the kind of life that you wake up excited about living,
0:31.0	the kind of life that feels aligned with your values and your goals, the kind of life filled
0:36.4	with people you love and things that you love

1:24.1	But instead, I told myself, they can say no if they want to, but I should at least
1:28.2	give them that opportunity because what if they say yes? And they gave me the column, which ended
1:33.8	up being nationally syndicated and it gave me a huge boost in my writing career. Because by the
1:39.2	time I'd graduated from college, I'd written a weekly column for like six years at that point, which not only gave
1:45.7	me clips, it gave me something to put on my resume. And this is really important. It gave me
1:51.2	discipline and experience. My college days were crazy. I did a lot of drugs. And I mean a lot.
