More Than Enough
When do people realise they have more than enough? If they didn’t waste so much on luxury items, trips, gambling and other non-investment activities, they could retire in peace. Maybe they could do it earlier than they ever considered.
Sit down with pen and paper and get your thoughts churning. Review your income, your savings, pension and investments. Look out 20, 30 and 40 years and see what you could have if you focused.

Eat The Crust First
When eating a piece of pie, eat the crust first. Sometimes it’s great and sometimes it’s not. But at least you’re saving the best for last.

Protect Your Capital
Save, invest and grow your money. You can reinvest the growth part. You can also spend it. But protect your capital as a high priority.
If you lose some or all of your capital, it can be very hard to replace. It takes more time and effort and is not always ideal.
Put guardrails in place to preserve your capital. Get great people working on growing it.

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.

Focus On You
If you focus on you and make your life the best it can possibly be (health, fitness, wealth, relationships and spiritual elements), you will be independent and happy. No one will need to come and save you.
But if you focus on others, and let your elements drift and become burdensome, then you’re going to need help from others. You don’t need to do that.
So focus on making your life better every day.
