Steve Jobs famously once said it is only by saying no you can focus on what truly
matters in your life this is what separates the over successful to those
who never make it in life all of those who are struggling they're saying yes to
everything over committing and chucking away their time and focus like
everywhere that's why insider I want you to pay
close attention to every single one of these things that you gotta say no to
especially to the final one because this is where most people trip themselves up
it's absolutely crazy so make sure to pay close attention and without further
ado let's go straight on to the first thing you've got to say no to which is
say no to the monkey now before you go to zoo and start pointing and saying no
to the monkey animals out there what I mean is in regards to your impulsive
thoughts you've got the monkey in your mind
almost it's almost like a picture as a metaphor you've got this monkey that's
your conscious mind wants to do stuff logically it knows what at once it knows
what's wrote down on a to-do list or what you've scheduled into your agenda but
then there's this monkey in your mind that gets very distracted it's like the
crazy animal in your in your brain that just wants to have that next hit of
dopamine endorphins order the feel-good hormones and you know what I mean you
tell yourself some days that you're just gonna spend five minutes checking your
email and then what happens 10 minutes 30 minutes 60 minutes go by and you end
up getting to the end of the day and you've not actually been able to work on
anything meaningful no wonder most people they lack time is because they
do not control the monkey in their brain they do not say no to impulses in fact
the way they've set up their environment is not serving them it gets all of the
monkey even more distracted and even more strong in regards to enforcement's of
all the thoughts that keeps on telling you say no to the monkey get rid of impulses get
rid of distractions set yourself up to win say no to the monkey every single
day next one is perfection but perfection is a trap everybody wants
to be perfect they want to try to get things done and those everybody by the
way what I mean by that is those who are never getting results you ever wonder
why most people struggle to be able to create a
successful online business or offline business for that matter it's because
they're trying to sit they're trying to picture this perfect business in their
brain the fastest way to succeed in business is to be in business don't get
to a stage in your life where you're planning planning planning planning yes
it is good to set yourself up to win in advance however you've got to know there
is a fine line between planning and over planning as well as procrastinating
when planning some people are so scared of taking action what they do spend
hours just reading reading reading it's good to gain the knowledge however you
got to know when you gotta pull the trigger nothing is ever going to reach
your perfection level that you design your life nothing is gonna get you there
realize this if you've gotten yourself to a stage where you're so caught up and
you're so sold on like the thought you've had and you've planned it so much you're
like oh my god that's gonna work well you've already lost why because you've
attached your motion to it so what if that goal flops what if that business
flops what if that marketing campaign flops well you're going to attach your
emotions to that meaning if that fails our business fails you're gonna
attach your self-worth to it and this is why most people quit when their business
fails entrepreneurs have perseverance successful individuals have perseverance
you've got to get rid of perfectionism ready fire aim as one of my one of my
old mentors once you say to me just get in the game stop overthinking about it
and get in the game never procrastinate with too much research I remember Mike
Tyson once said by the way everybody has a plan until they get punched in the
face and sometimes that is the case so get in the game insider another thing is
this have you ever told yourself oh I'm too busy I don't have the time I can't
make it work well if you've ever told yourself I'm too busy for something and
if you've ever got yourself to stage maybe you're here right now where you
don't have time for leisure you don't have time to enjoy yourself well your
life is more out of balance than you can actually imagine right now that's why I want
you to realize insider it some people they set up a business for
freedom but what end up happening is they end up working more hours than they
would have worked in a nine-to-five job what's up with that there is no such
thing as being busy no such thing if somebody had
a gun to your head and said I wanted to get this done I wanted to go have fun
I'm sure you're gonna find a way of getting whatever it is that you want to
have happen there's been plenty of studies of which I recently wrote in an
email to my mentees that revealed how most people we overestimate how long a
task will take my suggestion is is if you run this pattern right now you wanna
get clear in regards to your top three priorities
every single day and those top three priorities has to be something that's
aligned with your future goal the goal you're looking to meet at the end of
this year as well as at the end of the five years what is that for you make
sure every single day that you're working on the thing that only you are
the master at and you delete or you delegate the rest you've got to get
great at treating your time with the value that you want to be worth one day
otherwise if you treat your time poor you will be poor treat your time like
the rich and you will be rich that is the key so don't chuck where your time
delegate the things that you know you could delegate easily and just pay
somebody out there much lower wage than you think you're worth right now that is
the key delegate or delete the task that's keeping you busy so you can focus
on what truly matters in your life now another thing which is the little voice
and you may have seen me heard you may have heard me talk about this before
insider it but again it's not about what you know is about what you do and these
are the voices by the way every single day would you want to do something great
you hear it back of your mind you want to go out and take action maybe in the
morning you told yourself promise yourself not before now you go to the
gym you wake up 5:00 a.m. well there's a little voice say ah it's too cold or too
early oh maybe just one more hour sleep that little voice excuses in your mind
insider I want you to realize it will always be there in your life they will
always be there that voice will never go but what you always realize is amongst
all of those voices there's like a silent whisper it is the champion of
within you there's always that criticizer that saying all but you can't do it oh
you're too busy or we don't have the money don't have whatever but then
there's always a champion that's solution-focused
that's not focusing on problems that believes in you that's the voice that
you you should listen to the champion the intuition the heart whatever label
you wanna give it listen to that do not tune into a little voice every
single day let's go on to the final one which is miss aligned agendas I'm making
a very bold move in fact I'd be making bold moves for the last three weeks if
you're part of our newsletter every single Friday I send out a newsletter
called BTS Friday where I reveal some my biggest insights throughout of the week as
well as what's happened the good news and the bad news if you follow that you
will know for the last three weeks I've been saying no to huge opportunities and
some people were scratching their head you know replying back to this email
saying Tim are you crazy you just said no to such a big opportunity that I
would love to have but then you got to realize this if you don't get clear on
your agenda insider if you don't get clear regards to what you stand for you
will end up working for somebody that does know what they stand for you end up
working for somebody who is clear everybody has got an agenda and if you
don't prime yourself first thing in the morning and ask yourself what is really
important to me today in ten day time in 100 days time in one year time what is
important to me what's actually going to get me to that next level if you don't
get clear every single day you wake up you just react you walk into the storm
called life the moment you get to work and that storm will basically make it a
blur and you get to the end of the day and boom that's gone prime yourself with
better questions in your mind ask yourself every single day what's
important what do I need to focus on if I could only finish one thing today what
would it be observe your patterns every single day
use the timer for example this one I highly suggest there are tons of timers
you can find online where you just log every single thing that you're doing and
it will time it for you and you'll begin to get clear in regards to why you're
lacking time you get clear in regards to why you're not getting results it's
because you're putting energy time into things that does not serve you on any
level time is the equalizer of life insider
I don't want you to take this as me attacking you I want this to trigger
something within you when you say to yourself you know what I am gonna create
these habits Tim it is freaking hard yes Tim I know most people can do it but
then if you want the results that most people can't do you got to do things
that most people can't do evening routine is hard morning routine it's
hard tracking yourself every single day is
hard but remember it's discipline that creates freedom that's what you gotta
realize insider track it every single day figure out what is that one thing
the most important task what is it that I'm the most world class at and focus on
that every single day make sure most of you hours are going towards that and at
