Yo wsg {{first_name|bro}},
I was watching this video about some ancient samurai earlier, and I wanted to talk about it now.
Basically this guy was the dogs bolox…
He won 50 battles no loses… He had all the titles… He was a good ahh samurai.
If it was the 1500s you’d want to be this guy.
Anyways, do you have any reason why he was so successful?
Because it’s the same reason you’re not successful in your business. Maybe you’ve got some success, but let’s be honest… it’s not enough.
So… was he good because he trained? Kinda..
Was his father legendary? Nah…
Did he have the best swords in the world? definitely not—The reason this samurai was so unbelievably successful is because of his…
emotions.
Yeah yeah, wishy washy bs, but c'mon, think about it…
When you sit down to work, are you jumping for joy? No… So what about samuri, did he love training? NO!
But anyone who didn’t know the guy would’ve thought he loved training.
Because the key to success is doing something you hate just like you would if you loved it. (hate writing emails? write the emails… think about the emails when ur not writing… EVEN dream about those emails because once you start doing that, you can be you’ll be super good at those dang emails)
So bottom line is…
Control your emotions to do a relentless amount of work (and force yourself to enjoy it)

Control what dictates your future—emotions
