Do What's Easy to Do; and Do It Often

“Everything you need to do to transform you life is easy to do.” That’s what Jeff Olson states in The Slight Edge. Jeff goes on to say, “It’s easy to become healthy, fit and vibrant. It’s easy to become financially independent. It’s easy to have a happy family and a life rich with meaningful friendships.” Then he says, “Tapping into the Slight Edge means doing things that are easy. Simple little disciplines that, done consistently over time add up to the very biggest accomplishments.”

Do you buy that? If you do, you are well on your way to achieving the kind of life you want to live. You are already experiencing what you want in life because it is easy to feel like a millionaire long before you become one. That starts with a simple thought as taught by James Allen. Then again, it is easy not to do that. It is easy to take thirty minutes every day to stretch and exercise; or eat healthy food; or put aside five to ten percent of your earnings into a cash building account to begin building your wealth. Yet, while these things are easy to do, they are just as easy not to do. The difference in success and failure is who does them; and who does them consistently over time. Successful people do what unsuccessful people are unwilling to do. What are those things? They are the things you are unwilling to do too.

One of those things is to have written goals to get to a destination you have for yourself. Zig Ziglar tells us “It’s not where you start that counts, it’s where you finish. Start today with some simple steps to finish where you want to finish.

1.Write your goals on a piece of paper in your own handwriting.
2.Identify why you want to achieve that goal.
3.Set a date for the goal to be accomplished.
4.Write down the easy to do things that will take you closer to your goal each day.
5.Measure your progress weekly.
At Brian Kennedy Global we would love to share how to do that with our Winning Is for a Lifetime Goals Tele-workshop. It’s easy to do if you do it.
