Always aim for the best outcome. This is the best outcome after assessing everything for everyone. You will not likely please everyone. However, maximise for the most people reaching the best outcome.

Be Accountable
Make your plan. Write it on paper.
Then review your progress every week. Calculate your metrics, track what you’ve done, down to the very last detail. Be brutally honest.
If you’re really ambitious, and want to see results more quickly, then track every hour. This hyper focus, tracking and reviewing will skyrocket you to the top and have you achieving your goals in no time.
(“Review” is the 6th step in my book, Achieve Anything)
Hold yourself truly accountable and your success will be nearly unfathomable.
Commit
Commit to someone or something. You can put yourself first sometimes but commit to something bigger than you.
You will find energy and purpose in doing this.
Four Years Of Pain
I find it hard to believe that there are a significant amount of people that are on track to be outraged every day, about the current US administration, for four more years.
Four years is a long time to be outraged. Especially if they have been in that mode for the last four or even nine years. A person could get very old and bitter complaining about one man for 13 years.
This is a good point for all people. Assess what you are doing and why, frequently. Complaining is not a good look. Find some positive things about what’s going on and focus on that. Or do other things completely.
Turn off the tv. Stop reading and following people on social media. Your life is passing you by. And you may not even be enjoying it that much!
Gosh, the world survived a first Trump term, it will be fine with another.
The world has survived civil wars, revolutions, world wars, actual genocide attempts, the black plague, and all kinds of other challenging moments and decades.
Not only will the world survive, it may begin to thrive again.
Sit back and enjoy your life. Don’t let this age you.
Your Most Important Filter
Your filter changes all the time. So your most important filter is the one you are using right now.
Be mindful of what it is at any given moment.
This filter will have a huge impact on your life and its quality. Stay alert to it.
Time
Use it wisely.
Stick Till It’s Completed
If you are starting a project or admin task, stick with it until you have completed it. Make sure you don’t have to revisit this again anytime soon
Clear A Drawer
Just stop what you’re doing for one hour and totally clear out one drawer. Toss as much as you can and organise what’s left.
Slowly you’ll sort out your whole house over the coming weeks or couple of months. Then you’ll feel very organised and on top of things.
Then don’t let things build up after that. Don’t keep things without a purpose.
Complete Takes
Complete tasks. Not just the tasks you like to do, that are fun or easy or quick or where people notice and will say nice things about it or you.
Noooooo. Do the hard things that you keep putting off, the invisible things, the ones that challenge your mind, body and soul.
Moving things forward is good but completing them is where the money is. People don’t get paid Star money for moving the ball up the pitch unless they complete the play and set up or get a goal.
Focus on completing tasks faster, every day.
Cuddle
Cuddle with your little children. Cuddle with your spouse. Cuddle with that special someone, anywhere in the house.
The act of cuddling brings warmth, love, closeness and intimate feelings. Cherish these moments. You’ll miss them when they’re gone.
