A few years back, someone close to me observed me reading Brian Tracy's book GOALS.
She asked me the question I was thinking at the time:
What is preventing her from achieving her goals, despite having written them down for years?
That was back in 2016.
It's interesting that the answer came from a colleague's 2017 Facebook post. He goes by the name Balog Dan, and I believe the message came from above.
He shared the following on Facebook that year:
"Commit to DOING the difficult things, the things other people run away from, the things that scare you."
Since then, it has become more obvious to me that:
You are where you are because of one or more of the following four major reasons:
(1) You don't do the things you need to do.
(2) You don't do them quickly enough.
(3) You don't do them consistently.
(4) You don't go the extra mile with them.
That is why, this year, I have created a watchword that I would like you to adopt as well.
So it is.
This year, 2024, I am going to commit to doing the uncomfortable and difficult things that I usually avoid, the things that frighten me (name them here). Successful growth for me will come from doing the difficult things. So help me, God.
Every day, I want you to remind yourself of this watchword by reading it aloud three times when you wake up and three times before you go to bed.
But I don't want you to just read it; I want you to live by that watchword.
You are able to skip something whenever you are able.
Remember this pledge whenever you are able to stay from doing anything you needed to achieve.
When you commit to DOING the things that need to be done this year, it makes it simpler for God to deliver you bountiful growth and rewards.
That's how it goes.
The question is, how desperately do you need extra success in your life?
To put yourself to the test, read it aloud three times before closing this email.
I wish you a wonderful 2024.
God bless us all.
nothing will change unless you change
nothing will get better unless you get better.
