Mourn Your Loss

Whether it is a baseball game, person, an item or time, take the time to mourn your loss properly. There are 5 stages of grief and some extend that to 7.

Look those up and allow yourself to go through them. If you skip steps or the process, it will stay with you and be damaging in other ways.

Losing and loss can be incredibly difficult. It all depends on your attachment to that which was lost and a new vision of life that you can imagine.

Remember the good. Often.

State Your Wants Clearly

Spend your time on clarifying precisely what you want and when you want it.

If you spend your time on listing out the things you don’t want, you’re actually increasing your chances of getting those, just by bringing them into your focused consciousness.

So write out your wants everyday. Stay focused. And get things coming to you.

Progress Compounds

Do one thing each day toward your goal. In three days it won’t feel or look like much but in 30 days you will feel momentum and have a trend going.

In just 90 days you can have made a huge difference in your life or project.

Value the small and consistent wins. Take actions, large and small, towards your clearly written goal.

Have faith. Keep hope in your soul. Maintain a willingness to continue. Stay disciplined. Be resilient. Then you will see, and benefit from, how progress compounds.

Play A Bigger Game

Whatever you are focused on, could you do more? If you aim to but one cashflowing house per year, could you do five or 14? If you want five new customers a month, could you win over 25?

If you’re spending a lot of your time on nonsense or unnecessary admin, review the situation. Delegate more and free up your time to double your business.

Do a one day time audit. Write down what you did every 15 minutes of your day. See what activities you can eliminate, delegate, remove, stop or be more efficient with.

Serve more people, make more money, have more of an impact. It will become fun and lucrative in no time.

Write It Down

Writing things down make thoughts more real and allows you to easily review them and track progress.

The power of writing is immense. This is why it is included as the third step in the seven step process to success that I outlined in my book, Achieve Anything.

Write down your goals. Write down your progress. Write down your slip ups. Track progress in writing too.

Buy several inexpensive notebooks and start writing down everything. Soon you’ll find gold.

Be Efficient

The less friction there is in your life, the more you can enjoy those activities you truly want to spend time on.

Design your life’s activities to have the least friction possible. This can be direct flights, grocery delivery, electronic banking, and a PA, EA or family office.

Quite often a little extra money can purchase extra efficiency and is well worth it many times.

Be sure to make the distinction that you pay for efficiency rather than just comfort. Paying more for a direct flight is efficient. Paying more for Business Class is mostly adding comfort, especially if you still have to have a connection.

Plan a little but don’t obsess. Being more efficient with your time is mostly about planning and looking for the opportunities.

Giving Is Getting

Seeing the happy smile on a child’s face is wonderful, especially if your words or actions helped get the smile there.

Sometimes it can be from just some simple words of encouragement or appreciation or noticing something they’ve done. Sometimes it will come from a gift you have given them, a gift of time, money, or something they enjoy or wanted.

If you have the opportunity to help bring happiness to someone, it may be your duty to do it, though certainly it will bring you far more peace in your soul than what it cost you in time or money.
