Are You Drifting?

Posted on December 19, 2024

It’s time for a self-audit. Be brutally honest with yourself. Do you let a lot of time drift by without any purpose? Watching tv or chatting to people to pass the time can provide entertainment or can be good for you socially.

However, do you spend 80% of your day on unproductive or unplanned things? Do you let things happen so following everyone else’s agenda? What about your plans? Do you have any?

If you have plans, why are you letting others distract you from what you deemed important? Tell them to call back, let their call go to voicemail or answer but be two minutes or less.

Drifting along with no purpose, no plan and no boundaries can be quite easy, but destructive in the long term, as your life plans drift away from you.

Start blocking time in your diary for your plans. Make phone calls under 5 minutes. Meet friends where you can get up and leave after 30 minutes. Focus on what your goals are rather than just drift along with whoever rings your bell.

Prepare Better

Posted on December 18, 2024

It’s easier not to prepare. It’s even kind of fun to fly by the seat of your pants. But no serious person would let a ‘we’ll figure it out’-type mindset build a bridge or a skyscraper without written architectural drawings.

If your business, or your life, is as valuable, then you best get some grand ideas backed by precise construction plans so you can construct something equally stunning and memorable.

Get Great Sleep

Posted on December 10, 2024

Good sleep is fine. But GREAT sleep is what you want to aim for. Get to bed at the same time each night and get up at the same time each morning.

10pm to 6am gets you 8 hours. That’s excellent!

Your life will dramatically improve after a month of keeping a great schedule like that.

Life Can Get Challenging

Posted on December 9, 2024

Wallow in your misery for a few minutes. Throw a full on pity party if you like. But train yourself to have five minutes being down and then get over it.

Take 10 minutes if it’s really tough. But then get on with living life. It won’t last forever, so the quicker you get back on the horse, the more time you’ll have for this fun, wild ride.

The Power Of One Day

Posted on December 8, 2024

Spoiler alert‼️ Life ends.

For some people it’s quietly, alone in their sleep. For other people it may be more sudden, severe or unexpected.

However it happens, and whenever the buzzer goes, it is usually preceded by a fight for survival. We have an inborn desire to survive. And yes, we will automatically go into fight, flight or freeze mode, but if there is time, many of us will choose fight in order to survive.

While fighting will be in our own way, we will fight for time with our loved ones and to see another day.

The power of one more day can be immense.

Check out this powerful and moving 20 second reel by Ed and you’ll understand this even better.

Keep Things Simple

Posted on November 30, 2024

Spend some nice time with family and friends. Keep a daily fitness regime because if you don’t use it, you will lose it.

Keep track of your money in and money out at least weekly. It only takes a few minutes to look over your bank account and makes sure everything that should be there is and anything that shouldn’t be there is addressed immediately.

Find healthy ways to relax or bring calm to your life. Occasional drink can be ok but don’t use alcohol to self medicate and escape. If you do currently, explore other options that will be better for you.

Consider what you are spending your retirement savings on each day. Each penny you spend goes to fund someone else’s retirement dream and not yours. Once you have $250,000, or more, invested in your retirement funds, then you can spend more freely. Until then, be smart with your money. Have a savings plan and stick to it!
