Distractions

What keeps you from doing the thing you really want to do? Or even from what you need to do?

If you had only 6 more months on planet Earth, what would you focus on? What distractions would you let fall by the wayside?

Who would you call? Visit? What would be most important to you? What would bring you joy?

There are many things to distract us from our most important goals. A distraction could be a movie, the news, a family matter, a crossword puzzle or a book.

Write down the things you want the most and don’t let these distractions impede your progress. You control your time. Don’t waste it. Use it efficiently and effectively.

Start

Whatever you like, start doing it now. You’ll be uncomfortable and you’ll make mistakes, but you’ll be on your way.

Starting is hard. You show your hand to everyone. Don’t worry though. People tend not to notice too much and certainly not the detail. If they love you and see your challenges, they will support you. If they don’t like you, then don’t let it bother you either.

Start. There is no time to waste.

Step 3: Write

Writing things down is so incredibly useful. Thinking can be quite broad and general. When you write things down you get clearer in your thoughts. In order to write something sensible, whether in bullet point or sentence form, you need to refine your thoughts a degree or two.

With these more clear thoughts written on paper or in a device, you better organise and clarify your thoughts. Then you have something which helps you be more specific in your present and future.

You will also have something to come back to so that you can review it and track your progress against it. This helps you understand where you are and how well you are moving toward the outcome you desire.

The pen is mightier than the sword. Written contracts are more binding, clear and useful than verbal ones. The clarity of thought and written affirmations can change your life forever.

Write things down: To do lists, calendar items, plans, dreams and ideas. It will make a world of difference if you start and get better at it as you go.

”Step 3: Write“, paraphrases a portion of the third step in my recently released book, Achieve Anything – The 7 Simple Steps to Shift from Uncomfortable to Unstoppable. It is available on Amazon, and other online book retailers. It is an international bestseller and reached #1 in self-help. Currently the ebook is 95% off, Hardcover 39% off, paperback is regular price and the Audible version, which is read by me, can be had for free if opening an Audible account or use one of your several credits. Enjoy your success!

Little Steps Add Up

Don’t try to leap from £0 to £10m in 5 minutes. Take some little steps. Get to £1 and then to £5 and £10. From there you can aim for £20, £50, £100, £200, £400, and £1,000.

As you go you will become more confident and you will be creating success. You should celebrate each win and step. You will look out for greater opportunities and build your habits into strengths that can work at small and large levels. This is where the magic is.

If you can be successful with the small steps and smaller amounts, you can be successful with the bigger steps and bigger amounts. If not, you will likely fail at both levels.

So make sure you can do the basics well first. Then you can scale. Go one little step at a time.

Set Goals With Milestones

I did that this morning and it worked great! I was at a cottage and wanted to kayak to one end of the lake. So I set my goal and estimated time. Then I had some mini goals, or milestones, which I set.

In addition to these, I gave myself some MTO goals. This made it easy to bail out of the Outrageous goal, if I didn’t have the time or energy to succeed with it, but still feel good that I had surpassed my minimum goal or even target goal.

Each milestone I passed gave me more energy to complete the reducing remaining amount. I celebrated each one which kept me positive and determined, despite the intense sun, sore hands and arms and aching bottom.

Despite the headwind and frequent foot high waves, I pushed through and did the whole circuit.

It was a gorgeous, sunny day with fabulous warmth (28C). Blue skies were peppered with occasional clouds, one was even fish shaped.


If you would like to learn more about how to achieve more in your life, pick up my new book, Achieve Anything, which is now out on Audible – A brilliant way to hear all the great content.

Challenge Yourself

Every day should have one element of challenging yourself. Try making something new to eat or saying hello to someone.

The boys and I swam across the bay on this lake and swam back. Great challenge. Great achievement. Pick something every day that is outside your comfort zone and give it a go.
