Biggest take-aways from WA
- There is a difference between knowing and doing, especially with habits and behavior
- I learned valuable lessons, thoughts, and processes I had not heard of or considered before (warrior operating system, think fast and slow, 1&2, etc.)
- Connection is paramount - find your tribe
- Give yourself grace (hold yourself accountable, but habitually beating yourself up just slow growth and progress) - This allowed me to speed up my personal growth exponentially
- There is amazing results from quieting the noise and being able to tune out the chaos for moments at a time
