🎨 Impressions

This book changed how I saw goal setting and the work/action needed to achieve said goals. It heavily suggests reaching for goals that are 10X your original goals in order to fall short on a goal that’s rather difficult/hard to achieve rather than falling short on a goal that’s rather average. Grant says this is how success is achieved - through forcing oneself to reach for more than they ever thought of reaching.

How I Discovered It
