How To Have A Perfect Day (1)

There are practically two ways to have a perfect day:
a. Have a to-do-list
b. Have a NOT-to-do list. I'll enunciate on the latter today, and leave the former for another day.

You see, facing temptations and getting distracted is one of our every day experiences in life. Our temptations are so pervasive; our flaws, so easily exposed. Our weaknesses make us vulnerable. Humans, it sometimes seems, are built to fail.

The answer to 'staying on course' and realizing your dreams against all odds is to have a NOT-to-do list.

Be clear about what you will and will not do each day. Be clear about what you will not do for success. Some items are easy. You will not lie, cheat, and steal. Those don’t necessarily need to be written down. But you need to be clear that you:
  • Do not stay longer than necessary in bed.
  • Do not check email or head straight to Facebook and WhatsApp first thing in the morning.
  • Do not mindlessly surf the Internet and click on every useless link that jumps up at you.
  • Do not argue with colleagues about non-work-related topics or waste time gossiping with chums in school.
  • Do not consume food or drink that makes you tired or unwell.

You will need to add specific items that identify your individual weaknesses and the obstacles that come your way each day.

You must make a list of not-to-do items so that you do not succumb to temptation in the morning when your willpower and discipline are strongest. The morning is the greatest opportunity you will have to make progress.

This is where you must win the battle for your day and the war for your future.

Have an amazing day!

Focus On The First Step

If you ask me if success in life is easy to come by, I'll simply tell you the obvious: NO! But if you focus on the first step of whatever you want to achieve, the most difficult part would have been taken care of. Here is an interesting story to buttress my point. One day, I was at a camp meeting and I met this aspiring writer. I asked him how his book was coming along. "I didn't really getting started… I'm not sure my stuff will be good enough…" He was so insecure about his writing that he didn't even START writing anything. It's hard to become good at something you don't practice. I just explained to him that what really matters is taking the first step. The first step is really all that matters. If you can be the man or woman who always takes the first step, you become a force of nature. That's a really counter-intuitive secret to success. Every success I've had in my life was created because I took this first step. ...
