There are two powerful things I want to share with you today.<\/p>\n
Number one concerns getting what you want.<\/p>\n
If you distill it down to it’s core simplicities, this consists of
\n1. Knowing where you are.
\n2. Having a known objective you wish to reach.
\n3. Having a plan of how to get from where you are to where you want to reach.
\n4. Making a start.
\n5. Keeping on moving towards your objective. Staying focused and keeping moving despite obstacles, distractions and demotivators.<\/p>\n
And number two is about getting what you want.<\/p>\n
Some people wonder how others can accomplish so much…
\nThe powerful truth is that small habits make huge difference over time.<\/p>\n
Reading 20 pages per day is 30 books per year. Over ten years, that’s 300 books.<\/p>\n
Saving $10 per day is $3,650 per year. In ten years that’s $36,500 and if well invested, potentially $100,000.<\/p>\n
Running 1 mile per day is 365 miles per year. Over ten years it’s the distance of 80 marathons.<\/p>\n
Becoming 1% better per day is 365% better in a year.<\/p>\n
By embodying a process of continuous improvement in your knowledge, ethic level, integrity, self management (diet, exercise, sleep) and people skills you will become an unstoppable force.<\/p>\n
As I have on my email footer:<\/p>\n
Our most formidable enemies are:
\nPersonal and collective ignorance,
\npersonal and organisational out-ethics,
\nlack of personal integrity and
\nlack of self-discipline.<\/p>\n
What we don’t know and what we know we should do but do not discipline ourselves to do are two things that will kill us. Gradually or suddenly.<\/p>\n
Self-discipline is a skill and just like any skill, it improves with practice.<\/p>\n
