“So I actually do a thing, which is I wrote out for the year. I said, here's the three big things, big shifts. I always call it like three shifts I'm making this year. I'm making this shift, and this shift. Those are the three things that need to change in my life. The rest of things are going great. I don't need to talk about the things that are going great.

And if I'm going to do something today that doesn't tie to that shift, I just simply don't do it or with very rare exceptions to it.”
