"I was taught to distinguish between end goals and means goals"

What I didn’t realize then is that Mindvalley is absolutely life-changing. This is a lesson I learned very quickly, but I wasn’t fully aware of it when I first signed up. 
The first Quest I did was one by Lakhiani himself. This Quest had an amazing impact. I was taught to distinguish between end goals and means goals; the difference between them is of vital importance. The clarity I had — and continue to have — while doing the Quest still surprises me. It made me:
a) realize that some of my supposed end goals actually meant goals and
b) that the end goals I have are reconcilable with each other.
My business revenue has doubled. The biggest change? Clear goals, envisioning them, and calmly believing it’ll happen. It has shocked ME, because I’m one of those “it’s all about the hustle!” kind of people, but it truly has improved so much without me working more hours. In fact, I’m working less. I found a new advertisement company, and it took off.
