- Weigh up the long term effects of your actions and the costs of short term decisions.

‘I showed him my epic budgeted business plan which pretty accurately modelled the first ten years of the property journey along with my guitar teaching business.’
‘My old boss told me this and I thought it was a crock. Not listening to his advice back then cost me at least ten years of progress based on that singular insight.’
