Most people set New Year’s resolutions for themselves. It is now that time of the year. The top New Year’s Resolutions are to lose weight, stop smoking, make more money and do more of what they want. My advice don’t talk about it, be about it.
If you want to stop smoking, stop. It is that simple. But on the real, the best thing to do is hustle, and by that I mean find things to do with your life so you are not just sitting around and thinking of smoking all the time. If you have just hours of time where you are not doing anything, you will dwell on the fact that you are not smoking. So do stuff. I recommend finding a way to make some loot, so your mind is focusing on other things and you are making loot.
If you want to drop weight, do it. There is this diet that mad people are able to lose weight with, it is an old ancient concept. What you need to do is eat less and exercise. You can eat healthy, eat no carbs, drink shakes all day, etc… But on the real no matter what you do you need to get up, get out and do something. Be more physical. Also push back on the food. If you want some motivation, here are some ideas: watch Survivor (peeps drop weight, doing labor work and eating less works), watch some flicks like 300, Fight Club and the like, check out some websites, like bodyspace and gymjones. We live in an era where we know how to be fit. Fast food and binges are not going to get you in shape. You could also flip houses like I do and get some labor in while making loot.
If you want more loot, keep reading the blog for motivation. But basically you have to do it. There is a quote that I read daily now “If it is to be, it is up to me.” All the advice and motivation is not going to make you money, you have to put in work. Hustling with Strategy is one of the best ways to make money. This next year I will be posting more about ways to hustle and strategies.
The last goal people have is to do more of what they want to do. This is a bit hard for some people to accomplish. I was fortunate enough to have the proper motivation to start doing things. I did a study abroad and everyone kept telling me it was a “once in a lifetime opportunity.” I wanted to prove them wrong. I did not like the phrase “once in a lifetime opportunity.” I want to be able to do anything I wanted as many times as I wanted. When people challenge me I try to prove them wrong. Most peoples goals require money, and that is what holds them back. Or they hold themselves back. Don’t just say I want to do x. Set up the entire plan and put it into action.
Once you set up a plan you will do more than you ever wanted and have great experiences along the way. I have been to amazing places by accident on the way to meet other goals. It is like Sun Tzu said “Opportunities multiply as they are seized.” Not to mention the journey is half of the experience. If money is what is holding you back, seems like it is time to hustle a bit. You need to get to the point where you do not really set goals, you just schedule things and do them.
What are your goals and how are you going to accomplish them this year? If you want some motivation or advice comment and get some guidance from others on the site. I will be posting my goals for next year over the next few days.
