We live in voyeuristic world now, where we can watch and observe people, never do anything ourselves, and never feel bored while doing so. I don't think you have that specific issue, but many do -- and they’ll have a lot to say.
Today's show is about maintaining your focus on what matters -- your work -- while the fools talk.
Today’s show is brought to you by The Mental Workbook. Learn more at dreallday.com/workbook
2:18 Today’s Topic: Let The Fools Talk While You Keep Working
2:40 The energy we spend talking, watching, or thinking about what others got going on is mental energy we can use to get to that place
3:07 Point I: When you’re doing the thing, you don’t have to talk about it
3:45 According to Derek Sivers TED Talk, when people speak on their goals, they lose a little bit of motivation each time
5:02 Anyone who is not actively involved in achieving your goal doesn’t need to know what they are
5:32 Point II: The Principle of delayed gratification
7:18 The kids who could not hold of eating the marshmallow ended up being in worst states in life
8:33 Delayed gratification is waiting for things to get done before telling someone
10:50 Point III: When you have the right work ethic, and you’re working on the right things, results will follow - guaranteed
13:05 Are you mentally tough to do it?
13:42 Look in the mirror and make some decision about how you’re gonna do your work differently, how you can accept delayed gratification
