The less you have, the less admin you have. The more you have, the more you need a family office or house manager.
Regardless, I feel the more minimalist you become, the happier you will be.

Keep Learning
You can learn something from pretty much anything. It could be from people, like your parents, or experiences, or from watching or reading.
When you’re 16, you think you know everything. But at some point you should realise that there is more info than you could imagine in the universe.
Keep learning!

Support Your Team
There’s rarely a good reason to boo, demonise, slander or outrage over the opposing team. The best thing to do is get positive about your own team, celebrate their strengths and wins, and cheer them on.
The positive focus will impact you in a good way. The negative focus will impact you in a less good way. Don’t ever focus on what you don’t want to become. Always focus on where you want to go, how you want to be and in a positive way.
You become what you focus on.

Get Sidetracked
Sometimes it is nice to get sidetracked. This is not because you don’t focus on what you should but rather because you might see or learn something that wasn’t on your current path.
When it happens, see what you can get from it without losing too much from what you were supposed to do. Win win.

Have Fun!
Enjoy your time when you’re awake. If you’re reasonably healthy, every day should be fun and enjoyable. Sure there is hard work but you can still enjoy being alive.
You can have a dream you’re working toward too. That’s always great to have as a motivating factor.
Every day, wake up and have fun! It’s easy if you try (and stick with it!).

Be Early
Get there early. Finish the project early. Get the documents back early.
Whenever you can get something done early, you should do it. Not only does it look good, it’s great for your reputation, speeds things up, costs less and feels good.
There’s a reason the saying is, “The early bird catches the worm”.
Train yourself to be 15-30 minutes early for all appointments, days early for any submitted work, and weeks early when starting a project.
One time, when I arrived an hour before the event was due to start, I was able to have a great conversation with the headline speaker, the CEO of Vodafone plc, who had also decided to arrive early….

Complete Projects
It’s so easy to start projects. But completing projects can be a different matter.
We need to say no to most project proposals. They don’t bring us enough joy and often remove joy as they linger unfinished. They remind us that we have so much to do and create unnecessary stress in our lives.
Take on fewer projects. Start fewer projects. Complete more projects.
This is how you get that Winning feeling.

Try Again
If something was worth doing or trying once, you should try again.

Treat People Decently
I know we can get busy, frustrated or even cross, but do treat people decently. This attitude will shift the behaviour of many others and the knock-on effect will be incredible!
