WHY BE NORMAL
BE THE BEST?
I DON'T WANT TO BE NORMAL.
YOUR ONLY FOCUS
SHOULD BE ON-
AT WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
FOCUS ON WHAT YOU'RE DOING,
GET BETTER AT WHAT YOU'RE DOING,
EVERY SINGLE DAY-
IS A COMPLETE
WASTE OF TIME.
WHAT'S THE POINT
YOU DON'T GET 1% BETTER?
IF YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE
TO JUST GET BETTER
EVERY SINGLE DAY-
YOU DO THAT FOR 20 YEARS
YOU GOT 1% BETTER
FOR A FULL YEAR-
YOU JUST LAPPED YOURSELF
THREE AND A HALF TIMES,
AND ALL IT TOOK
WAS ONE.
THE NUMBER ONE.
