Find A Way
There is always a way. Sometimes it is difficult and other times it is easy. In certain cases you’ll need to make unanticipated sacrifices, while at other moments it will be smooth sailing.
Regardless, where there is a will, there is a way. Find it!!!!

Your Last Time
There is always a last time. We just don’t always know when it will be.
Times you’ll know it’s your last time can be your last day sitting at your desk at school, the last time you you drive a car before you sell it and your last day working for a company.
Although sometimes you won’t know it’s the last time while it is happening. Your last goodbye to a friend, the last time you speak with one of your parents or the last time you wake up in your bed.
Appreciate every day and every encounter. Give heartfelt goodbyes, as one will inevitably be the last.

Write Down Your Dreams
Get creative. Remember your childhood dreams. Think of new dreams. Write all of these down.
Get them in some sort of priority order. Perhaps start with the easiest to achieve. Then the least expensive to most expensive. You definitely want a list of things that are to do before I am unable to.
Start mapping these dreams out on a calendar. Things you’ll do this year go on there now and the rest get years and months written next to each item.
Get these dropped into your life. Then work like heck to make each one happen.

In 5 Years
You’ll either be dead or 5 years older. Let’s hope you’re just older.
What wonderful things will you have done in that time? Don’t know? Well you better start planning some then. Or you’ll just get whatever you get.

Develop A Sense Of Awe
That you were born is rather incredible. If all your body parts are working, some with no effort from you, it’s nearly a miracle.
That Earth is spinning out in space and we don’t fly off.
The mind – how does that work?! Where do thoughts come from?

Remember To Stop
Too often things get taken too far. You can see this in so many different circumstances.
Often it is far better to enjoy the win and be content, then to seek more than you had originally wanted.
Here are some examples:
Having a few more snacks or cakes than you should. Eventually you’ve put on 3 stone.
Having a few too many drinks and waking up half way through the next day with a cracking hangover.
Putting a few little things on a credit card knowing you can’t pay off the balance. Then a few more. Soon you’re paying £1,000s in interest, yet lost interest in whatever you’re paying for.
Getting a club together to defend yourselves, like NATO, can sound like a good idea. Then after feeling quite secure, you keep adding more and more members. You feel more secure and confident but others may become more concerned and defensive.
There are many, many other examples from women’s rights (is equal enough?), unions (group v individual) and tech (how far is too far, like kissing a robot?), to buying shoes (Ms Marcos), and political coverups (it always starts small and then like a black hole, begins to engulf everything).
The key is to moderate and balance while checking the details frequently so matters don’t get out of control.
Review frequently and track progress. Don’t push things too far or you can do some damage (Like running further than you should). There is always pain after things are pushed too far. Better to stop things a little earlier than build up to a devastating situation.

Eat Healthy Food
But not too much.
Only when you are actually hungry. Like when you feel it in your rumbly tummy.

Work To Precision
Don’t Generalise. Get precise and expect others to do the same. Get specific on dates and times and lengths, processes and outcomes.
If you work with general, you’re likely to get average results at best. The more precision you have, the more success you will have too.
You want precision in warfare, surgery, finances and legal matters, to name just a few.
Would you accept a paycheck “sometime during the month for a few thousand”? Or would you want to know which specific date in the month that your agreed $4,897,89 was going to arrive in your account?

Review 2024 & Plan 2025
If you haven’t already, get a notebook or even a piece of paper and do this today. Take 20 minutes and list out highlights of 2024, including what inspired you, what you achieved and what you loved. Set a timer for 20 minutes and write as fast as you can. You can also include challenges you overcame. Keep each idea short like a bullet point.
Then set your timer for another 20 minutes and try to write out up to 50 things you want to do, have, or be in 2025 and 2030. Write fast using the list you just made as an inspiring guide. Also use your most exciting ideas and imagination.
With this list of 50 things, decide which you want to achieve in 2025 and which might take longer like 2026 or 2030. Put the year you want to achieve the goal next to the goal itself.
Then gather up all the 2025 goals and decide which 5 are most important to you. With these five, write some greater detail around what the goal will look like once it is achieved.
Also write a list of next steps you will need to take to get closer to that goal.
Now put two dates next to each step so you know when you have to start and complete that step.
Now go work your plan!
