Achieve Anything you Desire in Life with 10 Rules
Maybe you feel stuck in a rut, unable to break free. Maybe you can’t even remember what your dreams are or were.
Or maybe you’re on the verge of massive success but can’t seem to get over that finish line.
Here’s some help.
These are the 10 rules I use in life to create success in 3 out of 4 endeavors.
That’s right. About 1 out of 4 times, I fail.
But then I pick myself up, wash the grass stains out of the seat of my pants and get back to work.
Here are my rules, tips, suggestions, laws, or whatever works for you.
May they help you to achieve all your dreams:
1: Forget motivation.
Motivation is temporary, fleeting, and one of the biggest scams ever perpetrated on the self-help industry.
Instead, focus on commitment. How committed are you to your goal? Why? What happens when you reach it? What will you sacrifice to achieve your goal?
2: Focus on the journey.
People who focus on results see their will to succeed wither and die like a daisy in the desert the first time they hit a roadblock.
But people who focus on the journey – learning, exploring, experimenting, improving – keep moving forward despite obstacles.
3: Have fun
Why is it that all these success books never talk about FUN? If you’re not having fun, you’re not going to continue moving towards your goal.
Life is an awesome game, yes, a GAME! If you take it seriously, you will lose all perspective.
You can achieve your biggest goal if you treat it like a game and have as much fun as possible on the way to that goal.
4: No stinking thinking
If you’re awake, then you’re probably thinking. And those thoughts do indeed determine your future. Feeling hopeless, insecure, pessimistic, doubtful, and afraid? Just try being successful because it’s just not going to happen.
But if you choose instead to feel happy, hopeful, optimistic, excited, and ready to step out of your comfort zone at a moment’s notice, I can almost guarantee your success in life.
5: Stay away from Garbage
You’re not stuck in a dead-end job. You’re learning valuable life skills you can use in your own business.
You don’t have ringing in your ears. You can hear the sound of the universe cheering you on.
You don’t have a lack of education. You have an open mind ready to absorb new information not for 4 years but your entire lifetime.
That lady that cut you off in traffic? She’s on her way to see her dying mother in the hospital. Aren’t you glad you’re having a better day than that?
That failure you experienced on your last business venture? That set the groundwork for your inevitable success in this new venture you’re launching next month.
Change all the negative stuff right into positive stuff and watch an amazing transformation happen. I can’t tell you how often this simple trick put me back into a positive mood and enabled me to move forward with energy and focus.
6: Feel the fear and do it anyway
Whatever it is that you’re scared to do, here’s how to get over that fear as quickly as possible:
Just do it.
If you don’t, the fear will grow until it appears insurmountable.
But if you do whatever it is, that’s scaring you, and I promise it won’t be one-quarter as bad as you imagined. In fact, you might even find you enjoy it.
7: Kill the distractions
Can’t stop watching TV? Cancel your TV service and give away the TV.
Are you cleaning your house when you should be working on your business? Hire someone to clean the house for you.
Do you have a hobby that keeps calling your name? Rent a storage unit and move all of your hobby stuff into it. Please don’t open it again until you achieve your latest goal.
8: It’s all you, Baby
Don’t expect anyone else to do it for you.
Your partner, your spouse, your parents, and your friends all have lives of their own. Whatever it is that you want to accomplish, you are the one who is going to make it happen.
That includes being happy. No one can make you happy except for you.
9: Enlist the help of others
Yes, I just told you that whether or not you’re successful is 100% up to you and you alone.
And it is.
That doesn’t mean you can’t hire experts to make the journey easier. You are still responsible for choosing the right people and ensuring they do the work you want to be done.
If you’re going to be successful, then it will be because you accomplished what needs to be done to be successful, and sometimes that means bringing in other people to help you along the way.
10: Make a plan
You’ve got the goal, but what’s your plan for achieving it? You should know the next three steps you need to take to achieve your goal. Schedule when you will have these three steps accomplished, and then get busy on your plan.
