Plan to succeed! Planning is what makes the difference between intending to live a great life and actually living a great life.
Planning begins with setting goals. First making high level goals based on you passion and purpose (more about Purpose in this story I wrote a few weeks ago). Then, break up the higher level goals into a 5 and 10 year goals. Then, further break those into yearly goals. Then buy a yearly planner to break those into monthly, then weekly, then daily goals.
Like with most things, laser focus is what makes it possible to achieve the best level of success. With that in mind, starting with one daily goal or two is the best course (of course not including givens like go to work or school or wake up in the morning). When you find yourself consistently and successfully achieving your daily goals, then the ante and add another goal.
“You will never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.” ― Darren Hardy
The daily life is where all the magic happens. Compound interest is real. Doing an extra one percent each day from the previous year will make you 37x more successful, it's mathematically proven. (1.0 to the 365th = 37) and in words that's (one percent more effort) (compounded over 365 days) = (amount of output). You've got this! focus on beating yourself from the day before and you'll find yourself thriving before you know it. Plan for success! It's coming!
