Jefferson Fisher

Now, you might think, Jefferson, that sounds like a lot. It's not. I'm not saying you have to go, just a minute, let me think about it every single time you talk. That's not it. It is a mindset. It is a mindset that what you say today, today, affects everything about who you will be tomorrow, how you'll be talked tomorrow.

Or people that are strangers affect what they think about you. How you talk at work affects how you move up in your job. How you talk to your kids affects how they will talk to their kids. People you will never meet are affected by your words today. And that's including words you say to yourself. I came across something on social media that really hit me hard.

a spectrum on it, the younger self, the five-year-old, eight-year-old me, I can see it with my big bottle glasses, and my older self, who hopefully still has hair, what am I doing for that person that I could be choosing to do today?
