Our Decisions, Our Attitudes, Our Actions (Day 307)

Another great article from Ryan Holiday's Daily Stoic.

Instead of getting angry at other people’s poor execution, focus on the deficiencies in your instruction. Instead of resenting their protest, examine whether you’ve been persuasive enough. Don’t get mad about red tape—think about all the bad ideas this process actually has helped stop. Be forgiving of other people’s stupidity or rudeness—because you’ve been plenty guilty of it yourself at one time or another. (All you control is how you play)

Always look inward for criticism and improvement; be a better facilitator to the team. Working in the fast-evolving crypto-universe with some of the best minds in the finance and trading world, as well as some of the best engineers, makes me realize how deficient I am, and how important it is to have the learning mindset.

At the end of the day, there's only one thing we can control.

As Marcus Aurelius wrote, it doesn’t matter what other people say or think, it only matters what you do.

Just go and do it, don't worry if you win, don't worry if the crowd cheers you on, only through taking actions one can make an impact, or get feedback and improve.
