Follow The Formula
Life is simple if you follow the formula.
Eat simple and move. Provide value to others. Treat others as you wish to be treated.
If you want to get better, it takes effort. Consistency is pretty important.
If you want it bad enough, you’ll sacrifice comfort and put in the work you know you should do but don’t really want to do.
Stop hoping for an easier way. There isn’t one. Do the work or stay the same.

Focus On Completing
Starting can be hard, especially things we consider big or important. Smaller projects or tasks, that aren’t considered too tricky or important, get started more easily. Then we have too many projects and don’t complete them.
Two things can help here. First, discipline yourself to only start any project, large or small, if you’re going to complete it 100%. Otherwise, pass on that project or task. Secondly, once a project is started, focus on completing it as quickly as possible.
Then you can enjoy life a lot more.

Don’t Cry Over Spilt Milk
An oldie but a goodie. Once the thing has happened, it’s done. Accept and move on. You can’t undo a car accident. So as long as it is only a fender bender, we need to take these in our stride.

Aim For Amazing
Complain less. Keep your mind focused on what amazing would look like. What do you want? Not what you will settle for.
This is hard for most people. People know what they don’t want or what they are fine with. But it often takes some serious inner work to figure out what you truly want. Not what you’re supposed to want, but really, actually want.
Stop complaining and focusing on past grievances. Bygones.
Keep your mind focused on the future and the amazing components of your amazing life. You get what you think about most of the time.
Think slim. Think wealthy. Think kindness.
There are lots of great things to think about. Think about those things and those things exclusively.

Repeating Yourself
Make the changes in your life quickly. Make them permanent in your mind so there are no ‘ooops’ moments and you do the things you promised yourself you wouldn’t.
There is no need to live the same year 16 years in a row. Change yourself or change your circumstances. But actually do it.

Push Boundaries
Push yourself to get through your own mental blocks. And nudge at other boundaries too.
Don’t take things too far. But do push.

Do. Review. Continue.
Success can be this continuous loop of doing things, reviewing where they got to and then continuing with them into the next step or stage.
That’s it.
For greater success, do more reviewing. This is what really makes the difference and shifts the needle.
We can usually get things moving due to excitement, drive or sheer enthusiasm. But then things seem to stall a little.
Anyone trying to achieve their New Year’s resolutions will recognise this as week 2 or 3 of January. This is where enthusiasm and excitement are fading. Some things are going well but without continuous review, the weeks blend into one another.
Then you might think you’re doing better or worse than you are. By continually reviewing where you are at, you can be clear on how well things are actually going. Much better that, than drifting along blissfully unaware and not making the changes you wanted.

Routine
If your new goals can help you develop a solid daily routine, you’ll increase your chances of reaching your goals.
Set up your environment to win. Plan and schedule with calendars and alarms. Prepare your tools and resources the day before. It sounds so simple. It is so simple.
Put some effort in and you will reach beyond the stars!
