Stephen Curry explains how he used gratitude to process being underpaid on his 4 year $44,000,000 deal while winning MVP's and titles early in his career “It’s all intentionality. It sounds so freaking cheesy and cliché because I’m talking about it right now, but this is exactly how I thought.” “I talked to my wife about it right before I signed. I had to tell myself, one, let’s keep perspective here. $44 million for four years.” “More money than my pops ever made in the league. I’d been around the league for 16 years watching my dad play. I knew how far the league had grown from when he played.” “That’s good money. Support my family. Got a lot of security. I just want to be healthy.” “Let’s focus on that, not what you’re leaving on the table or what you could have made. Don’t count anybody else’s money. At the end of the day, when you sign, that’s your decision. You’re going to rock with it.” “I tried to set that foundation for my mindset right then and there. Never renegotiate with myself afterwards. Never second-guess.” “Never come back to that moment like, ‘Oh, I should’ve, could’ve, would’ve.’ Because that’s not how life works.” “I had to be really intentional about it. It sounds so simple and fairytale because it did work out. But I give myself credit that that was the perspective I made sure I had.” “I didn’t want to let anything distract me from what could have been, what I left on the table, or what other situation could have been out there. I was still taken care of. I was still good.”

One of the most powerful moments in this episode. At 28, mark pincus finds himself unemployed (fired by John Malone, Bain, and others), with few prospects. He had big dreams, but the world wasn't cooperating. This is how he turned things around. what "I realized I had nowhere else to fall from this because I just felt like I’d made a lot of bad career decisions and I was washed up early and I just sat there in this temple." It was a good place to sit and think because he didn't know anyone and didn't understand anything. "And I just started writing in a notebook about why my life sucked so badly." This book, a journal he's kept every year that he calls the book of life, allows him to take an accurate accounting of his life and change his mindset through reflection. After writing for hours about how bad his life sucked and all the mistakes he'd made, he focused on one small thing. "I just ended on this one thing: that I smoked cigarettes. I didn’t even smoke smoke. I smoked like one or two a day, a pack a night if I was at a bar on weekends, but I hated it ... I didn’t want to do it, but I kept doing it." He felt like his life was out of control, but this was one thing he could control. "I just was like, if I could do one thing to know that I’m making some positive change in my life, I’m going to quit smoking. So on October 19th, 1994, I did a lifetime quit on cigarettes and then every day for that year after that, that I didn’t smoke, it was something I could feel good about. So I was like, okay, I did something for myself today by not smoking." The wins started to stack. I asked him what he was writing about. What was his process? "At that point, I had no structure or process. I was just writing, and there was so much in me." Was it anger? "It was. I did feel angry and frustrated and I was like, I had all these dreams. I wanted to be an entrepreneur from early on and I was an achiever. I thought I was an achiever, but I was not achieving." He's done the same technique every year: "What it’s done for me and I think it could do for a lot of people is just be strategic about your life, like be thoughtful about, I like to say, what would your future self thank you for doing this year and what wouldn’t?" And that question is the one that really matters. What can you do today that your future self will thank you for? What the book of life did was hold him accountable and force him to make tough decisions that his future self would thank him for.
