1. Work smart, not hard. In other words, quality over quantity. It’s not the amount of work and time you put in, but your strategy.
2. Community over competition. You’ll go 1000x farther by taking advantage of powerful, successful people around you, instead of watching from the sidelines coveting their success. Turn them into friends instead of enemies. You gain nothing from the latter and everything from the former.
3. If they can do it, so can you. Another way to make the best of other people thriving is by following in their footsteps. If they’re thriving, it means there’s a formula to their success which you can follow.
