Losing your EDGE means you’ve lost your competitive drive. It’s easy to have the EDGE for one day, one week, or one month. It’s hard to consistently keep your EDGE sharp. Anybody can get lucky. Mastery requires you to do hard shit. In order to become a master, you have to do the hard shit that most men don’t do because most men are relying on luck. But luck is not a sustainable option. You can’t count on luck. You can’t predict luck.

The reason most men don’t have the EDGE is because they associate the EDGE with perfection. Having the EDGE doesn’t mean that everything is perfect. It means being committed to improving, not just one day, but every day. Can you commit to improving every area of your life 1% every day? Having the EDGE is not chasing perfection but pursuing progress. Fuck perfection, pursue progress.

You can’t improve what you don’t measure. Every day, you have to ask yourself where you can improve. And every week, look back and see where you’ve improved or haven’t.
