You worry about your stock portfolio.
You pay attention to your 401(k).
You insure your home for unexpected loss.
But I’m betting that you’re not as vigilant when it comes to your most important asset.
Create the practices and disciplines that protect that asset. Make those practices and disciplines non-negotiable.
Your investment will yield a thousand fold.
I don’t do it often. I always regret it when I do.
I said one thing. I should have said the other.
And there’s a huge cost involved.
You have a limited number of yeses to give.
Protect them at all costs.
In distance training, they’re called bricks.
The back to back long runs.
The second one is often… unpleasant.
Comfort zones are called comfort zones… for a reason.
Because they’re pretty damn comfy… even when they’re not.
But all progress is made in the discomfort.
When you’re hit with a brick, keep going.
Pile on the bricks.
You’re not born with resiliency and grit.
You become.
I’m all about being productive.
Taking action.
Getting things done.
Getting the right things done.
But there’s a dark side to productivity.
Your creativity resides in the unproductive, in the not doing.
In the relaxation, in the reflection, in the re-creation.
In the being.
Dare I say… in the wasting of time.
So put this on your “to-do” list: be unproductive.
When was the last time you said, “I wish I could brush my teeth?”
Unless you have no teeth, I venture to guess that the answer is “never.”
Because, when want to brush your teeth, you brush them. Wishing is not part of the equation.
Yet, for some reason wishing shows up way too often.
As in…I wish I were fit; I wish I could lose weight; I wish I could write a book; I wish I could have a new career; I wish I could launch an online program; I wish I could run a marathon; I wish I could make more money… .
I wish… .
But… wishing won’t make it so.
If you’ve made it this far into today’s message, I know something about you: You are someone who makes things happen. It’s part of your DNA.
If you look back over the course of your life, I’d bet that anything that you really, really wanted to do, you did… you figured out a way to make it happen.
Your “want to” trumped the “how to.”
And… wishing wasn’t ever part of the equation.
Connect again with what it is you really, really want…and then take deliberate action.
Slow, steady, consistent steps will take you there.
Don’t forget to brush your teeth along the way.
