Here is today’s Game and what’s going on.
Here is what I discovered today in our Dadly Daily Declaration reading from Discipline Equals Freedom by Jocko Willink.
The title of today’s reading is “Nature vs. Nurture.” Let’s jump in:
- What is more important: Nature or Nurture?
- With all the different types of people, there are good and bad. Successful and unsuccessful.
- People from every walk of life, from the bottom to the top, every type of person can be successful.
- So, it’s not about nature or nurture: it is about choice.
- The people who are successful decide they are going to be successful. They make that choice.
- And they make other choices. They decide to study hard. They decide to work hard. They decide to be the first person to get to work and the last to go home. They decide they are going to take on the hard jobs. Take on the challenges. They decide they are goin to lead when no one else will.
- They choose who they are goin to hand around and they choose who they will emulate.
- They choose to become who they want to become – they aren’t inhibited by nature or nurture. They overcome both.
Those gems lead us to today’s Dadly Daily Declaration:
It is never too late to make that choice. You are never too old to decide where you are going to focus your efforts and push to make the most out of every situation. So, think not about what you’ve been through and where you were.
Think about where you are going, and choose. Choose to make yourself smarter and stronger and healthier. Choose to work out and study and eat good food and keep your mind clean. Don’t let nature or nurture make you.
Choose to make your self.
