My philosophy for reaching my goals is knock on the front door, if nobody answers look for a key under the mat, if that doesn't work see if everyone's in the back yard, if that doesn't work see if a window is cracked open! Always have multiple contingency plans & never give up.

Want to get in shape? It’s about habits (exercise), food (nutrition, caloric deficit), learning new strategies, and surrounding yourself with driven, fit people.
Want to build a business? Focus on reading, networking, adopting success-driven habits, and having high-value conversations.
Whatever your goal, your future self is built by these 5 factors. Think about who you want to be in 1 year or 5 years—and start shaping that person today.
According to Karl Popper's falsification theory, a scientific idea must be capable of being disproven; if it cannot be proven false, it is not considered scientifically meaningful. In business, testing ideas (and discarding the bad ones) is just as vital.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias where people with low ability in a particular area tend to overestimate their competence. This concept was inspired by a man who robbed a bank thinking that putting lemon juice on his face made him invisible, one claim was that it was like invisible ink and the other claim was 'if he can't see you, you can't see him' not knowing that wasn't referencing sight impairment. The reason I mention this, is that sometimes it has had an effect on intelligent people with 'imposter syndrome' (in this use of the phrase, referencing thinking you're not really intelligent or thinking a great accomplishment was mostly luck) and the reality is Dunning-Kruger is mainly an issue of those who lack critical thinking ability and those who are unintelligent. My advice in this matter is to always be grounded in your capability to know what you're capable of and not capable of. The biggest challenge is in things like sports, I know I couldn't be in the NBA; but watching baseball they make it seem so easy (it's hard to believe that the top 1% are merely high school varsity and a small percentage of them become D1 college players, a small percentage of those make it into the minor leagues and an even smaller percentage ever play in the major leagues and only a small percentage of them become a star and many of those stars don't last long with only a few remaining a star player for a decade or longer with 22 years being the optimal career length for likely HOF status. But, outside of sports (the greats make it look easy) it's reasonable to know what you are capable of even if it's qualified capability like "I could become a surgeon, if I went to medical school and spent many years studying surgery."
