1 Year = 365 Opportunities.
365 days is a ton of time to work on your goals. That’s only one year! Most people and their businesses start making progress and growth after 4-5 years! It takes time and YOU have a lot of time to accomplish what you want. No excuses. 365 days within one year is long enough for you to figure out what you want to do and how to achieve it. Don’t think of it as “one full year”. Think of it as a shit load of days to improve your self!
Without commitment you’ll never start. Without consistency you’ll never finish.
If you fail to commit yourself you will never get going. You must realize when you head out to start your goals, you have to be ALL fucking In! All in! If you have the stones in you to go all in, then while you are on your journey, you have to stay consistent. If you tend to take days off and not work late and not make deadlines then you will fail. Plain and simple. Commitment to start and consistency to finish.
The better you become, the better you attract.
Everyone loves attention. It’s in our DNA and our overall human nature. So, if you’re in need of attention, I suggest you bust your ass and become very successful. The more well rounded and successful you are, the more people want to be surrounded with you. Why does Justin Timberlake has millions of fans run up to him on the street? Because he’s successful. Everyone wants a piece of the action and if you crave that, then become better at whatever it is you do!
There is only one boss. The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else.
People who own businesses need to realize this. You do one bad thing or make the customer have a bad experience and he or she will walk. They’ll go somewhere else and spend their money. How many times have you been to a restaurant and hated it? Will you go back? Of course not! And this applies to your business. Remember that.
No one is perfect. Remember that.
Except for Matt Cain on the day he threw a perfect game, no one is perfect. No one. Do I fuck up? All the time. Everyone does. The real lesson to be learned, is when you do fuck up, do you learn from it? That’s the most important lesson you’ll ever learn. Everyone has their bad days and I mean everyone. It’s how you bounce back from those difficulties that define your true character.
Our prime purpose in life is to help others. If you can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them.
Don’t be a dick. Not many people are out there that genuinely want to help others. Now, I’m not calling people selfish but a lot of people look out for themselves. If you are in the minority and you enjoy helping people, but you can’t somehow, don’t hurt them. Don’t mock them or speak down to them. Don’t try and burn people doing business, it’s not ethical and karma will soon prick you right in the ass.
