The lessons I learned from reading The Way of the Fight by legendary UFC champion Georges St-Pierre:

00:00 Introduction 02:28 Pursue something meaningful with your life. 04:27 Mediocrity is about not trying. 16:43 Don’t give up. Always finish what you’ve started. 22:06 Choosing to train instead of party is only a sacrifice if the dream you’re chasing is smaller than the party. 24:29 Truly believing in others is the greatest gift you can give them. 26:32 You can’t be courageous without fear. 28:25 Without facing your fear, you can’t truly push yourself. You can’t reach your full potential. 30:03 There is no reward without risk. 32:56 If is risk’s purgatory. 36:00 Without taking risks, we'll never know what we could become, which is worse than not trying at all. 37:04 Pursue something meaningful relentlessly. 43:13 Don’t wait for the morning - the path to the win you seek tomorrow starts tonight. 45:21 Building a routine that makes the work easy is an essential ingredient for a life spent pursuing something meaningful. 46:26 Find work that feels like play. 48:35 Success is earned through the combination of envisioning what you want and pursuing it with discipline through a daily routine. 57:21 When you’re successful and you move from chasing something great to running away from something terrible, it becomes much harder to maintain success. The pursuit of winning, not the avoidance of losing, got you to the top. 01:01:43 Suffering is a prerequisite for joy. 01:09:18 Fear walks alongside even the most fearsome individuals. 01:11:16 You can be successful. The limits of your potential are not preventing your success - your unwillingness to fully commit to the process to get the result is. 01:13:31 The hardest growth to earn comes from repeatedly overcoming an unmotivated mind. 01:16:40 The Dichotomy of Georges St-Pierre
