Because that cannot be taken away.

When we execute, we're making ourselves something we otherwise could never have become.

And so Alex learned that what he lost was insignificant compared to what he gained.

And why is this such a common theme?

Industry leaders, folks speaking on their accomplishments.

I think the answer is simple, because you don't get there without the doing and the execution.

And if to execute means to step forward without having all the answers, after all, we are only human, life will humble us.

Excellence must be a game of trial and error.

We can't escape those lost everything stories.

Because choosing the right path every time, well, that only happens when you choose no path at all.

We have to act and be okay understanding that action brings with it mistakes and lessons and setbacks.

You know, all those little annoying things that become greatness.

97% is left because the path before you is unwalked.

But know that it contains everything.

Everything you need.

So believe it.

Decide.

Because nothing starts without that initial 3%.

But nothing changes without the subsequent 97.

That's where we are shaped.
