Winning and Purpose

Our job in this lifetime is not to shape ourselves into some idea of what we imagine we ought to be, but to find out who we already are and become it.

— Steven Pressfield
The War of Art

The successful person has the habit of doing the things failures don’t like to do. They don’t like doing them either necessarily. But their disliking is subordinated to the strength of their purpose.

—E.M. Gray
Winners figure out what they are supposed to do – what’s inside them that has to get out and into the world – their purpose, and then they do what’s necessary to “git ‘er done” no matter how hard it may be to deliver.
