My Reading Notes:

• You already know everything to succeed.
• Consistency is the key to success. Otherwise it takes so much longer to see payoff.
• No man’s land = it is a place where you’re not really happy but you’re not unhappy enough to do anything about it. That’s a dangerous place.
• Success is a result of small smart choices completed consistently over long time.
• Success can cloud your perspective and can make you lower your expectations.
• Knowledge uninvested is wasted. Knowledge is potential power.
• Take 100 of responsibility for making the relationship work; it will work.
• You alone are responsible for what you do, don’t do or how you respond to what’s done to you.
• Tracking your progress makes you aware of where you are putting your effort and whether you neglect it.
• Start saving; 10 saving on Peace Of Mind Account.
• Ask questions:
  • Where do you want to live?
  • What type of people you want to surround yourself around?
  • Do you want to work nights & weekends?
  • Do you want to travel? How much? Where?
  • Do you want to short commute?
  • How do you want to dress?
• Don’t sacrifice your life for what’s really important in your life for too little.
• Success is something you attract by the person you become.
• Think of who you are in the context of Entertainment (Consumption) vs. Education (Creation)
• Where attention goes our energy flows.
• Installing Good Habits:
  • Set yourself up to succeed: fit it into your schedule, make it easy.
  • Think addition, not subtraction: it’s what you put in that makes it positive, focus on what you have rather than what you sacrifice.
  • Go for PDA (Public Display Announcement).
  • Find a success buddy: someone who will keep you accountable.
  • Competition & Comradery
  • Celebrate! small rewards, enjoy new habit.
  • Be patient.
• Momentum can go both ways; either negative or positive.
• Some of our best intentions fail because we don’t have a system of execution; you need daily routine.
• Morning Routine: gratitude, abundance, give love, stretching, read something positive & instructional.
• Bed Routine: cash out your day (recap), 10 pages of inspirational book.
• I want you to think about what you can do for the rest of your life that you can repeat consistently over long period of time.
• Nothing kills momentum like consistency. Keep your habits slow but manageable so you can deliver them day in day out.
• Everyone is affected by three (3) types of influences: input (what you feed your mind), associations (people), environment (place).
• Your thought process is at the base of the result that you create in life. What is influencing your thoughts?
• In US average person spends 4.5 hours on TV per day. 4.5 hours x 365 days = 1704 hours
• Do you surround yourself with anchors or engines? In life there are engines who propel us forward, believe in us and are supportive. There are also anchors who weight everything down.
• You can think of anchors and engines in the context of people:
  • 5 people you spend the most time at work.
  • 5 people you spend time in your personal life.
  • 5 people who are most influential.
• It’s the extra effort after you’ve done your best that makes the difference.
• Don’t wish it was easier; wish you were better.
• When you’re at your wall and you put a little extra effort this is a massive expansion, or multiplication, of your effort.
• Push past what others/you expect of you.
• If you have a cause or ideal worthy your attention do what it takes, even unexpected to make your case heard.
• Look for multiplier opportunities where you can go a little further.
• We’re swimming in a sea of information and we’re drowning.
• We read and learn a lot but never stopping long enough to digest what we have learned.
• It takes 3 years to be good at something. Don’t expect to be overnight sensation.
