Sky Fitness
I started Sky Fitness while I was in school.
It was software for exercise programming.
I enjoyed building it. Reading these chapters, I noticed how much of my happiness I had tied to the work.
When I sold it, I lost more than something to do.

After
the sale
I kept looking for something to replace what the business had given me.
I had more freedom and resources, but less direction.
ApprovalAttention and praise from strangers.
ControlTrying to make situations go my way through money.
SecurityThe belief that I had “won life.”

Starting Tripass Design
A longtime friend encouraged me to try a new direction.
That became Tripass Design.
I had something familiar to build again.
Today, I notice myself relying on it for the same
approval, control, and security.

Working with
the wanting
1
Notice
What do I want?
Approval, control, or security?
2
Allow it
Can I allow this wanting
to be here?
3
Let go, if possible
Could I let this wanting go
for a moment?

Commitment 11:
discussion
Is the distinction between having and wanting useful?
What does internal sourcing look like to you?
What do you agree or disagree with in this chapter?
Brandon Fuller10 / 16
Having enough
of everything
Time. Money. Love. Energy. Space. Resources.
Experiencing sufficiency in the present,
rather than living from “not enough.”
Brandon Fuller11 / 16
Three scarcity
myths
01There is never enough.
02More is better.
03That is just the way it is.
Brandon Fuller12 / 16
The bank
acquisition
An example from commitment 12
Competing for clients
Colleagues protect opportunities
as though there is not enough.
Working together
Complementary services create
reasons to cooperate.
Brandon Fuller13 / 16
Noticing
scarcity
Take one ordinary thought about not having enough.
1
Notice
What do I believe
is missing?
2
Question
What makes that belief
seem true?
3
Look again
What is available
right now?
Brandon Fuller14 / 16
Questions to
take with you
01Where am I looking for approval,
control, or security?
02Am I starting from an assumption of
“not enough”—and what action is still needed?
03What do I want to try,
or keep questioning?
Don’t let Brandon skip the last slide!
