If you are reading this, you are success-minded.
You are interested, intrigued, and focused on your own success and probably the success of those around you.
That is reason enough to stop now and celebrate!
Yay!
Okay, now I will give you the 1% to success…
The reason you opened this email.
What will you do this next week to improve 1%?
How will you adjust your time, energy, focus, or money, so that you achieve the EXTREMELY HIGH level of 1% improvement?
Think about it.
If you improved your situation by 1% every week, where would you be in a month? (4.33% improved)
How about 6 months? (26% improved)
How about a year? (52% improved)
Wait…How about 5 years? (260% improved)
This is the all important:
-Dedication to the basics
-Diligent change and growth
-Focused intensity with hard work, and patient endurance
Maybe your still convinced that 1% is not enough.
Besides pointing out almost every New Year’s Resolution fail, and most of society’s burnt out attitude because of trying to do too much too soon…
…let me illustrate with three areas of life:
1. Weight Loss
2. Strength Gains
3. Financial Wealth
If 1% improvement in weight loss is only a half of a pound:
-1 month, you have lost 2 pounds
-6 months, you have lost 13 pounds
-1 year, you have lost 26 pounds!!
-5 years, you probably don’t even have 130 pounds to lose!!
If 1% improvement in strength is 5 pounds added to your 5 rep maximum of Hex-bar dead lifts.
-1 month, you have added 20 pounds to the bar.
-6 months, you have added 130 pounds to your 5 rep maximum.
-1 year, you are 260 pounds stronger
-5 years, you are now lifting most European cars (maxing out 1300 pounds over the start.
On the last two examples, there will be a point at which you may slow down, and then maintain, which opens up the possibility to pursue another slow and steady 1% goal…financial Wealth anyone?
If 1% improvement in financial wealth is investing $100 every week (email me for ideas to easily save $100 per week even if you are broke) into a consistently successful mutual fund earning a conservative 12%…(be prepared to be amazed)
-1 month you have $433.
-6 months you have $2600.
-1 year you have $5200.
-5 years you have $36,998.98 Whoa!!
*Bonus for extra patient endurance*
*30 years*
*You have earned $1,405,521.55.*
*You are now a millionaire, all you need is a little focus, patience, and time…*
So, the question is, what is your deepest need, want, and desire?
Now make your desire a weekly discipline, and you WILL succeed!
“It is our disciplines, not our desires, that determine our destiny.”
Make your next 1%, your BEST 1%!
