You have to play the game of life every single day. Who are you committed to being in this life? It’s not easy. We are not designed to be successful. We are not designed to easily create a purposeful life. You have to be truly committed to being who you really want to be each and everyday (and each and every minute) to make your life extraordinary.
*The world needs what you have. Politicians will not change the state of the nation alone. Changes come from bottom up. It’s you and I being the best version of ourselves that will change the nation. If everyone focused on serving people, we could make a huge difference in this world. Remind yourself WHY you are doing what you are doing each day and get out there and inspire and teach others!
*When networking, don’t just meet someone and learn their name. Instead, meet someone like they are your long lost friend. Meet someone like they have the secret of what you need to move forward in their pocket. That simple mindset will make all the difference when out networking.
*Make a list of all of the things you would like in your life and in the future.
If you could have anything you want to have happen in your life, what are the top 3 things? Why are those things important to you? WHY do you want those three things? Then, think about who you have to become to make this list happen. Do you need to grow? Do less? Make a leap? Be a better delegator? Get help with strategy?
*Evaluate where you are doing things that can be done by someone else.
Where can you get rid of those tasks? Everything is teachable. Your job is to train and coach people to be as awesome as you are. Everyone should have someone who can do things for you that is $20 per hour so you can focus on your priorities such as your significant other, children, customers, health and your brain. It if it’s not on your list of priorities, don’t do it.
Block time for planning.
At least 1% of your time should be set aside for scheduling and planning. That is 128 minutes per week in advance of planning out what you will do what you are going to do. It’s also 2-3 days planning the year and 1 day planning every 120 days.
