Key Takeaways
Implement a gratitude practice through 'flooding'—reviewing old photos to trigger positive memories—to instantly lower stress and increase happiness.
Adopt the 'Good' or 'Yes' mindset: when things go wrong, instead of reacting with frustration, reframe the obstacle as an opportunity for growth or a sarcastic win to maintain momentum.
Entrepreneurial success often follows a non-linear path where you may earn very little for years before seeing a massive, compounding payoff in a single year.
