Seed Of Belief

If someone presents you with a difficult (but good) opportunity, your instant reply might be No.

But the seed has been planted.

They came to you with the opportunity because they had belief in your ability. Now their belief becomes the seed of your own belief. And now it’s on your mind. It seeps into the realm of what you think just might be possible.

And what you think might be possible turns into something you’ll try out.

Once you start seeing this pattern, you can learn to just say Yes right away.

Got Good

I’m good at it 

vs 

I got good at it

The second one is almost always more true. That extra word.

But we see and hear other people who are highly skilled and we forget that while they’re good at it…they actually GOT good at it. It was a gradual process. They weren’t born that way.

Listen For Yourself

First Monday of the month, new Hum Love playlist on Spotify and Apple

Good albums are just as hard to make is the bad ones. That’s why it’s tough to tell how good an album is by hearing the artist talk about it in interviews.

The artist talks about the making of the album as a long journey, ups and downs, creative road blocks and break throughs, the blood sweat and tears and years.

But amount of effort has never been a very good measurement for how good a song is going to be.

It turns out, if you really wanna know, you just need to listen to the songs for yourself.

Castles And Boxes

Maybe this castle is the best one this sandbox has to offer.

The building of the castle is always up to you but the boundaries of the sandbox are real.

And you might say…But I like this sandbox!

Yes, but what about the castle?

More Than We Need

We all have it.

That’s why our next choice is so interesting and important. We recognize we have all that we need and more, so what are we going to choose to do with that level of freedom?

Our mental bandwidth isn’t used up by survival…but that’s how powerful it is. The cognitive force that we used to use to keep us alive can now be pointed in a different direction.

It’s a luxurious level of freedom…that is worth being thankful for.

Perfect Is For Amateurs

It’s too early. It’s too late.

There’s too many people. There’s not enough people.

It’s too hot. It’s too cold.

Waiting for the perfect time is for amateurs.

Everything significant you’ve ever done has come from you taking action despite it being too…
