Your actions day-to-day are largely a product of habits and ambition. Ambition being effort and focus dedicated towards rising out, above, and beyond your habits.

You can be ambitious about anything. But not everything.

Biggest failure mode I see is guys staying ambitious about things that don't matter. Priorities that drove results before.

If the object of your ambition hasn't changed in a while, odds are you either suck at making forward progress, or are stuck moving the wrong needle.

Get real on the state of play. Move on.
