E+R=O (Event + Response = Outcome) basics never get old. Exactly the opposite. They increase in value, depth, and truth the longer you apply them. Remember — we don’t need more complex solutions, we need to do simple things with elite discipline.

You don’t control outcomes, you do create them. Controlling outcomes suggests a power that doesn’t exist and you don’t have. Creating outcomes means the responsibility is on you, through skill and discipline in each context.

When your mind is focused on creating rather than controlling, you stay connected to cause and effect reality and put yourself in the best position to produce what you want.

Do the work.
