(I've been lurking in the forum.) You are so right about the importance of changing your mental map (from your DLM post) and about success coming from working your ass off. What a perfect reminder for me as I start the year with a bunch of goals that simultaneously excite and freak the crap out of me. ;-) It's really quite motivating to realize that my goals are within reach...I just have to be willing to work work work for them, which means being diligent about forgoing the things that either don't further my goals or relax me. (Lost definitely falls in the relax category, so I won't be giving that up this year!) How do you like Alan's new book? His recent book about consulting was just recommended to me and I just started reading it. Here's to working hard and kicking ass in 2010!

This is something that irritates me like crazy... people who have read the 4 Hour Workweek, but just don't get it. I would try to explain what you were talking about here, but I never could figure out exactly how to explain it... you hit the nail on the head with "working 4 hours a week is not done on the front end." Amen to that! I loved this post! This is something that irritates me like crazy… people who have read the 4 Hour Workweek, but just don’t get it.
