Thrivers won’t be shaken.

 

Four leading indicators we observe in people who are trying hard:

  1. they make more mistakes than safety seekers
  2. they often delay fun activities because there’s work to be done
  3. they always find joy in smaller things because that’s all their time permits
  4. you have noticed for a long time they make fewer and fewer excuses

Only a thriver knows this.

We are all born to thrive.
