The Job is Never Done

The job is never done. No matter how far you’ve come, or how much you’ve achieved, you must stay humble. You must stay focused on giving your best for the next time around.

Any time you boast or otherwise brag about your achievements, you get set back to square one. Even if you become number one in the world, even if you reach the moon or do something no human has ever done before, you’ve got to keep on going.

We love you for your achievements, but we also love you for what you’re going to achieve. Your achievements don’t stop as achievements. They build and build and build, and build even more.

Constantly thinking back to that beginner’s mindset. Back to square one, so that you have a blank slate to start building with again.

The job is never done.
