Don’t Allow Yourself To Be Distracted
It’s your choice. Be distracted and your dreams drift further away. Or stay focused and have a better chance at a better life: the life you say you want.
Set your phone alarm for 7 minutes and press repeat each time it goes off. Then if you’re distracted it reminds you to stay focused. You can even put ‘STAY FOCUSED’ as the alarm name!

Results Without Sacrifice?
Rarely would this happen.
If you want to be great at a sport, you will need to sacrifice dating time, drinking time, drifting time and put a lot of training in. Same with education, work, relationships, etc.
You’ll need to sacrifice time, comfort and ease for involvement, hard days and tough work.
It will be worth it in the end. But you have to believe it and live it now.

Know When To Say Uncle
As kids, if we were arm wrestling, when you were in pain, you would say uncle. This was the case for any pain related activity.
Saying uncle meant the other person would stop inflicting pain and you gave up and they were declared the winner.
Sometimes, you just have to say uncle.

Uncertainty
Uncertainty can be very destabilising. When you are feeling uncertain, get to the gym or do some exercise at least. Change your state. Change your environment too. Do this especially if you can get somewhere that makes you feel more positive or confident.
Start recognising what you can be certain about. There may be more things than you think. It could be that you have great health or your parents love you very much.
Whatever you can lock onto to anchor your thoughts will be great. You’ll start to relax.

Show Up To Win
When you commit to something, see it through. Whether you are changing a habit, setting your alarm for the morning or agreeing to meet someone, once you commit – follow through.
No excuses, reasons or unexpected happenings will be accepted. If you can’t commit to these basics, you might never get out of first great.
If you can’t trust you, who will?
Start getting that corrected today.

Eat Better
You may have never thought too much about what you are eating, how much you are eating or when you are eating. And unless you’ve had mouth, throat, stomach or bowel challenges, you may not have really considered what the food and drink you consume is doing to you.
Take this moment to reflect on these points. Consider if what you are eating is fuelling your body in the best possible way. Do certain foods not agree with you? Do they make you gassy, bloated or tired?
Just like you wouldn’t put diesel in a petrol car, consider whether what you are eating is right for your body.
In addition, the amount you put in your petrol tank is important. I’m guessing here, but I assume you have never over-filled your tank such that you had petrol all over the station forecourt. So I would suggest not filling your stomach more than its relaxed capacity.
I find it incredible how few calories one actually needs in today’s move-less society. We think we need three meals a day, probably with pudding for at least one of them. Yet we don’t. The 2,000 calories per day might have been more relevant in agrarian society but most people no longer need this level of daily fuel.
Assess what you eat and drink. Re-evaluate everything food related and make some slight changes from today. Your life will be better for it from today onwards.

Seek Best Outcome – Always
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.
