Relentless. Quotes II. By Tim Grover

- When you are confident, you don't care about what others think. You can take your mistakes seriously but still laugh because you know you can and will do better. Cleaners always have the confidence to know they'll get it right. Accept the consequences and move on.
- If you did it, own it. If you said it, stand by it. Not just the mistakes, but all your decisions and choices. That's your reputation. Make it count. If you want your opinions to have value, you have to be willing to put them out there and mean what you say. Two things you can't let anyone take from you: your reputation and your balls. That means accepting the pressure of taking responsibility for everything you say and do.
- A Cleaner never wants to be locked in to one plan. He'll know the original plan, and he'll follow it if it feels right to him, but his skills and intuition are so great that he'll usually improvise as he goes. He can't help it. He just goes with the flow of the action, and wherever his instincts take him, that's what you get.
- Will you be ready? Will you have done the work that allows you to step in, fully prepared, and show you should have had that job all along?
- Everyone is given some ability at birth.
- Our challenge in life is to use the abilities we have, and to compensate for the abilities we don't have. Successful people compensate for what they don't have. Unsuccessful people make excuses, blame everyone else and never get past the deficiencies.
- Every minute that you sit around trying to figure out what to do, someone else is already doing it. Make a choice or a choice will be made for you. A Cleaner makes decisions because there's no chance in the world he's going to let anyone else make a decision for him.
- Over thinking imaginary problems just generates fear and anxiety. There is only a situation, your response and an outcome. Prepare yourself with everything you'll need to succeed, then act.
- Are you listening to others, or to your own instincts?
