And part 2:

#83 - an easier manifesto - part 2

And now let’s get to the grand finale! As usual, take your time with each point, come back to them over the next few days and try not to discard some of them too easily. Get curious about what they have to tell you. Have fun!

11. right. now.

[greatness is in real time]

You can only be great right now, and you can always be great right now.

Greatness is always one thought away. And, by definition, in the now there is no outcome (future) and also no past. Replicating past excellence gets in the way of your current excellence. The game is so much easier to play when you can see it in real time (instead of playing the game in your head).

Exercise: notice where you are trying to replicate past excellence (yours or others) or focusing on future excellence (one day I will…), rather than getting curious about the way your greatness will unfold this time.
