My Learnings: #55

Money is vital, but I've achieved immense productivity in work and life without it—proving most improvements demand effort and ingenuity, not cash. Want a tidy home? Clean, weed, mow: just fuel yourself with food and get started. For skills or sports? Skip pricey coaches; leverage free internet research and practice. Too often, people default to writing checks, overlooking how hard work and creativity yield tremendous value free of charge. Challenge yourself: "How can I do this now, for free, solo?" You'll astonish yourself with the results, as I have on scales small and grand.
