This Issue Is Sponsored By:The Self-Mastery Journal It was 3am and we couldn’t take it anymore. The kids were uncomfortable, their butts hurt (mine too), and we needed to find a place to stop. Searching for the nearest hotel, we found a room available. Driving through the night doesn’t always go the way you want it to. So we pivoted.

One of the accounts that survived the massacre of accounts is that of Dakota Robertson (@WrongsToWrite). Recently, he discussed imposter syndrome in a way that resonated.

This Issue Is Sponsored By:The Self-Mastery Journal Clarity Was Once the Norm Our ancestors didn’t miss the herd of buffalo because they were scrolling Instagram. If they didn’t act with a clear mind, they (and their tribe) didn’t survive. Clarityshhmarity. The world has worked that way for 99.99999% of it’s existence — Not exact math but you get the point. But today? Clarity is THE competitive advantage. For example, who do you think wins? The person who wakes up with a clear mind and short...
