Most of your life you shouldn’t be looking forward to sleep but rather the thing you do when you’re awake. Make it awesome and they will have to drag you away from it when you require sleep.

Get Your Life Back
Have elements of your life gotten away from you? Well now that you are aware, what are you going to do about it? You can get the old you back or create a new you. Just don’t let life pass you by while you decide what to do.

Minimise
Reduce the clutter in your life. Whether it is books you’ll never read or papers you will never need, remove them from your life and space as quickly as possible. Make room for things that bring you joy. Also unsubscribe to emails you no longer read or need. Get off groups that have been great but you no longer participate in. Be as minimalist as you can dare to be so you make room for the adventure, love and opportunities that will awaken your soul.

Belief
Is there a god? Does it matter? What matters is if you believe there is a god or not. If you believe there is a god and you act as if there is a god, that is all that matters on this Earth. If you discover, once you die, that there is or isn’t a god, and you’re proven right or wrong, it can’t impact what you did all those years while alive on Earth.
So the belief that there is or isn’t a god, or anything else, and acting accordingly, are the two most powerful components of living. Be mindful what you believe. Have faith more than proof.

What’s Fun For You?
Do you enjoy card games or roller skating? Some people prefer sports and others like reading. You can get a thrill from high octane adventures or lie listlessly near a river enjoying the heat and watching clouds drift by. What’s your favourite way to have fun?

Play, But How Far?
Survivors and especially more successful people may be more forgiving than others. Since they made it through life, they may let their kids take even greater chances. They may be less strict, more lenient, forgiving or even lax. That could be a good thing. But without some decent discipline, you’re setting them up to fail.

The Prep And The Event
You prep to pitch so you can win the right to host the Olympics. Then if you win the right to host, you prep for 8 years so you can do a great job. There is a lot of prep to host a few weeks of sporting competitions. And then it is all gone but for the memories. So much of life is the same process: idea, pre-prep, prep, brief event and memories. From a holiday, to a job, education or a marriage, a similar pattern plays out.

Wanting A Result And Getting A Result Are Different
You can want to quit smoking, stop drinking, lose weight, eat healthy, be slim, get straight A’s, and make millions. But wanting isn’t doing. And without doing the hard work, with discipline and sacrifice, you are very unlikely to get the results you want. Stop wanting it so badly. Start doing it so badly. As if your life depended on it. Commit! No more reasons, excuses or alibis. Learning this lesson well will let you change your life.

Be The Best
Find something quickly, right now, that you can be good at. Then aim to be the best that you can possibly be at that thing. Learn how to study it. Get disciplined at doing excessive training and practice. Propel yourself to new heights. You may not be the best in the world, but you’ll be the best you can be. That’s all we ask.
