Key Takeaways:

Borrow your confidence. When you fake it til you make it, you allow your confidence to come and go. Think of someone whose confidence you admire, and assume their internal, emotional, energetic posture.

You\\u2019ll eventually build up your own confidence based on what you\\u2019ve already done from that borrowed posture. Discipline is everything. Showing up every day can easily separate you from everyone else when skill level is equal. At the pro level, everyone has talent. It\\u2019s not a talent to show up every day; it\\u2019s a choice.

Discipline gives you a leg-up. Don\\u2019t be a PIG. More and more people are becoming \\u201cPIGs\\u201d \\u2013 Professional Information Gatherers. At some point, you have to take your knowledge and do something with it. And cut yourself off from all the \\u201cinformation\\u201d out there, because there\\u2019s more of it than you have time for.

Why are you here? You need to know why you showed up in the first place. If your reason is to prove something to someone else, it\\u2019s the wrong reason. There\\u2019s going to come a point when you have to have your own answers. If you need someone else to answer for you now, it\\u2019s only going to make you weaker for the future.
