If you haven't mastered your inner game, you need to read this.

Success is a mindset game. A lot of people know what they need to do to be successful, but they're not willing to take action.

If you're reading this and thinking, “I can relate”, I've got great news. Today is your opportunity to do something different.

Once you've done the work to master your inner game, there are no limits to what you can achieve in life.

If you're ready to go all-in, keep reading…

Success is never accidental.

You don't achieve your goals in life by sitting on the sidelines and doing the bare minimum. This is a recipe for failure. Success is the result of continuous effort and hard work. I believe that a successful life is available to EVERYONE.

A lot of people want to be successful, but not everyone is willing to do what is required to be successful. Why? Because they haven't mastered their inner game.

You can't achieve anything in the outside world until you've overcome the self-imposed obstacles that prevent you from actualizing your potential. Your inner game, comprised of your beliefs and values, is what determines whether or not you take action towards your dreams.

Mastering your inner game is similar to building muscle. The more that you practice it, the stronger that it gets. When it comes to your inner game, the following 3 factors determine your success in life.

1. Values

Knowing who you are is intimately connected with what you value in life.

Personal values are the measuring sticks by which we determine what is a successful life. What you value will dictate the decisions that you make. If you want to be successful you have to value success. More importantly, you must act in alignment with the values of a highly successful person.

2. Beliefs 

Your beliefs impact your thoughts, feelings, and actions. As such, they determine your success in life. All of us have both empowering and disempowering beliefs. Tune in and ask yourself… do your beliefs reflect self-love or self-disgust?

If your answer discourages you, remember this… at any given moment you have the power to choose better beliefs that empower your life. If you believe that life is always happening for you, you will attract opportunities that align with that truth. It's that simple.

3. Emotional States

Becoming a master of your emotions is the ultimate competitive advantage. So many people are at the mercy of their emotions. They feel out of control. In reality, they are the “architects of their experiences“. The more that you challenge your emotions, the more deeply that you feel them.

Your emotional home is your default state of being. The more that you feel frustrated, the more likely you will live in a state of frustration. Conversely, the more that you feel happy, the easier it will be to live in a state of happiness. You can rewire your emotions. By doing so, you will take more empowering actions that lead to a better quality of life.

The Cost of Success

There is always a price to pay for success. It all comes down to how bad you want it.  Are you willing to make sacrifices and do what others will not?

When I first started my entrepreneurial journey I experienced a lot of frustrations. In reality, I wasn't taking enough action to create the success that I desired.

Even worse, the actions that I was taking weren't working. That caused a lot of emotional pain and suffering. Instead of putting my head in the sand and giving up, I chose to make success a top priority in my life.

Thankfully my focus and determination paid off. However, I'll admit that it was at a huge cost to my social life and overall quality of life. That being said, I was willing to endure the discomfort temporarily so that I could create my dream lifestyle.

You can either have excuses or results, but you can't have both.

Listen, I get it. Your excuses may be justified. However, if you're always looking for reasons as to why you don't achieve something, you'll only become a victim of your circumstances.

In this state, you will constantly deflect responsibility. At the end of the day, the one common denominator in you achieving your goals is YOU.

There will come a time when you have to point the finger back at yourself and say, “I am responsible for everything that has happened in my life.” When you do this, you become the driver of your destiny instead of the victim of your life.

Are you ready to master your inner game?

No one in history has become successful without their inner game being on-point. If you want something bad enough, you'll find a way to make it happen. Your shoulds will become musts.

When your inner game is strong enough, you'll find the success that you know you deserve and are capable of. Don't stop until you're proud. Your future self will thank you for it.

Time is a depreciating asset.

You can never buy your time back. Unfortunately, a lot of people don't value their time. Everyone has 24 hours in a day. What you do with the time that you have makes all the difference in your life. If you want to be in control of your life, you must become a master of your time.

Successful people value their time. They associate different thoughts, feelings, and emotions with the time that they have. Thus, they can maximize each day to the fullest. If you struggle with time management, I want to help you shift your core beliefs.

How important is your time? A lot of people spend their time doing things in their business that are less than what their earning power is. In the beginning stages of building a business, entrepreneurs fall into the trap of not outsourcing.

They make the mistake of doing EVERYTHING on their own. As a result, they end up engaging in low-income generating activities with the time that they have. If you're too busy working IN your business, then you're not working ON growing your business.

In my opinion, this is a waste of time. Also, a lot of people mistake activity with achievement. They think that being busy means that they are being productive. Not true. You can be busy, but get nothing done.

The most productive people are those that “own their day” versus letting their day own them. Instead of being busy, they maximize the time that they have. When you start to value your time more, you will start focusing on things that matter.

As an example, act as if one hour of your time is worth $480.

If you believe that and take that on as a new mindset, it will change what you do throughout your day. Focus your attention solely on the activities that will move the needle forward in your business and delegate everything else.

I have been able to achieve so much success in my online business because I've been smart with the time that I have. My business is complex. There are a lot of moving pieces. I can't do everything on my own.

Once I got clear on the tasks that would generate the biggest impact in my business, I focused on my strengths and outsourced everything else. You want to make the shift from being a business operator to a business owner.

I want to share 12 strategies that will make a huge difference in your productivity levels. The more that you implement these strategies in your business, the faster you will accelerate your success. These strategies have transformed my business and my life.

1. Master Tracking Your Day

How you use your time has a huge impact on your success in life. The big lie that people tell themselves is that they don't have time to do things. This is just a story. In fact, they are just wasting their time on mindless tasks.

A simple exercise that I recommend is to keep a journal throughout your day. Track, hour by hour, from the beginning of the day to the end of the day, all of the activities that you engage in. If you track your activities over one week you will start to notice where your time is going.

When I started tracking my day, I started noticing a lot of things that were holding me back. A huge part of getting what you want is knowing what you have to give up. For example, I went many years without owning a TV.

One of my mentors, Jim Rohn, taught me that a TV is an electronic income-reducing machine. I learned that the more time that you spend watching it, the less time you spend living your life. 

As an example, let's say that you spend 3 hours every day watching TV. Spending 3 hours per day over several weeks or months adds up. Don't get me wrong… it's okay to enjoy some relaxation after a long day as a reward for accomplishing something.

However, if you don't keep track of the time that you're binging on your favorite shows, you'll end up wasting precious time. Try cutting your watch time. Spend 1-2 hours watching TV and spend the third hour engaging in a meaningful task. If you make this slight modification, you will make significant progress in your life over time. 

What is one mindless task that you can reduce or remove from your life that will give you more time to be productive? When you go through your list of things that you do on a given day, I want you to determine the cost-benefit ratio of each activity.

For example, if the cost is one hour, what is the benefit that you're receiving from that hour? The key is making sure that you're getting more benefits from whatever it is that you're doing. 

2. Master Your Beliefs 

Your beliefs determine your actions and behaviors. The biggest limiting belief that people have around time is “I don't have time.” This is B.S. The reality is that everyone has enough time.

On a given day, all of us have 24 hours. All that matters is what you are doing with the time that you have. People will spend time complaining about not having time.

Oftentimes, people are looking for something to justify why they aren't doing what they know they should be doing. As a result, they create a story about not having time. They come to believe that story as truth when in reality they're just afraid of failure. 

Going back to the example of building a business, at some point you need to determine what it is that you're willing to sacrifice to achieve success. In the short term, are you willing to not hang out with your friends or not watch TV, if it means having more time to build your business?

In the beginning stages of building my online business, I dedicated 3 years of my life to creating passive income. Over those 3 years, I had to make a lot of sacrifices. I knew that if I was willing to invest the majority of my free time building my business, I would be able to enjoy all of the free time that I wanted to in 3 years.

I was willing to pay that price upfront to get my freedom and time back in the long term. Today I have an abundance of time. Only you can determine what price you are willing to pay to achieve success.

There are people in this world who are much busier than you and me. However, they still dedicate their time to getting important things done. It's never a matter of how much time you have. Rather, it's how committed you are to getting things done.

In the words of Steven Covey, “Most of us spend too much time on what is urgent and not enough time on what is important.” The belief system that I empower you to adopt is “I make the time for whatever I am committed to.” There is always time if you are willing to look for it. 

3. Master The Power of Leverage 

You'll always be able to get more done through other people. Don't get me wrong… success requires hard work. However, I think that a lot of people overutilize this muscle. Working hard will only get you so far.

Eventually, you've got to learn how to work smart by leveraging and outsourcing. As you achieve more success in life, you want to figure out ways to get more done in less time. Efficiency is power. If you can outsource or automate something, do it!

Back in the day when I was building my website, I had to learn HTML or hire a programmer to do it for me. It was timely and expensive. The amazing thing about the Internet is that there are so many tools, like ClickFunnels or WordPress, that can automate things for you.

Similarly, on a site like Upwork, you can search for literally any task that you want to outsource to a freelancer. Don't let the saving mentality hold you back from making decisions that will move the needle forward in your business.

Why waste your time trying to learn something when you could hire someone who is skilled in that task? You can't do it all. Outsourcing is working smart. It allows you to focus your energy on revenue-generating activities that will grow your business. 

4. Master Your Energy

A lot of people aren't getting the most out of their day because they are always tired. They are walking around as if they are half dead. Most people need to utilize stimulants to get a boost of energy. There's nothing wrong with caffeine. However, if you drink coffee in excess, it can wear out your adrenals.

You cannot create success in life if you do not take care of your physical body. This is why it's so important to have an empowering morning ritual that you practice each day. Whatever you put into your body will affect your energy.

If you wake up tired (even after getting 8 hours of sleep) your body is working overtime digesting food. Eating foods that force you to expend a lot of energy to digest will make you feel more lethargic. 

I like to eat plant-based water-rich foods that are more cleansing. Also, I like to do intermittent fasting. If I fast 14-16 hours per day, my body gets an opportunity to rest. As a result, I have more mental clarity. When you fast, your body stores fat for fuel. 

I have the most energy when I'm doing a ketogenic diet. This is when I'm training my body to burn fat for fuel, rather than carbohydrates and sugar. You get an immediate boost of energy with carbohydrates, which is great if you're doing high-intensity training. However, you'll crash shortly thereafter.

This is why you'll end up needing more carbohydrates to sustain your energy. If you change your body to burning fat for fuel, it's like burning coal. It's a slow and steady energy burn that will last throughout the day.

If you want to learn how to get your body to burn fat for fuel, I suggest that you read the book Slow Burn: Burn Fat Faster By Exercising Slower written by Stu Mittleman and Katherine Callan.

5. Master Weekly And Daily Planning

Most people are reactive throughout their days. In this state, it's easy to get sucked into others' demands. It's called the vacuum effect. If you don't have boundaries around your time, you will waste time engaging in activities that aren't empowering for you.

If you don't have a plan for your day or your life, you'll end up fitting into someone else's plan. Their plan for you is going to be what benefits them most. This is why I like to plan out my days and weeks in advance.

At the start of every week, I use Evernote to make a list of the most important tasks that I want to accomplish. I'll schedule everything inside of my calendar. I like to write down what my outcome is for each task and why those outcomes are important to me.

While tasks are the building blocks of work and productivity, an outcome is the most nutrient-rich version of a goal.

Let me give you an example of what this would look like. On a day like today, my outcome is that I want to be in an incredible state.

I want to add value to people's lives so that they can accelerate success in their businesses and their lives. This is important to me because I want to put my knowledge and skills to the higher good. By sharing what I know, I can help people solve similar problems that I have faced in my life and business.

Second, I want to continue building my brand and create raving fan customers.

Third, by sharing what has worked for me with others, I can reintegrate this knowledge into my life in a new and empowering way. Now that I know what I want and why I want it, I write down what actions I need to take to make sure that I achieve those outcomes. 

Once I've got my action plan in place I determine the most important task that I need to accomplish that will contribute to achieving my outcome. Keep in mind that a plan is not set in stone.

When you plan out your week, all that you're doing is giving yourself a framework. However, that doesn't mean that you can't modify your plan. Adapt and adjust your plan when needed.

6. Master Elimination And Focus

You need to identify what is distracting you from what you're trying to accomplish, whether that's answering your phone, checking emails, or scrolling through social media apps. 

On average, it takes about 20 minutes to get your attention back once you've become distracted from a task at hand. This is why you must create a distraction-free zone and stay focused.

Whether you're working from home or in an office, tell your family members or colleagues to not disturb you while you're working. It is critical that you have boundaries with your time. You have to learn how to say “no.” 

In my business, I have a lot of distractions. If I don't have a plan in place, I will open my computer first thing in the morning and react to a multitude of demands. This is why I mute all of my social media sites and apps at the start of my day.

By eliminating these distractions, I can focus all of my attention on the most important tasks that I need to accomplish. Later in the afternoon, I dedicate time to responding to emails and responding to my team members. 

7. Master Your Routines And Rituals 

I'm a big fan of having routines and rituals. I like to wake up at 5 or 6 am because I  can accomplish more in the morning. There are fewer distractions. By the time it's 10 am, I've already got so much done.

Each morning I nurture my mind, body, and spirit. I engage in rituals like meditating, journaling, exercising, and reading. By intentionally putting myself in a peak mental and emotional state, I'm able to accomplish so much more throughout my day.

Moreover, when challenges arise, I'm able to handle them proactively instead of reacting and getting overwhelmed. Create a ritual that works best for you and your life. When you start your day in an empowered state, you are guaranteed to end your day in an empowered state.

8. Master Your Musts

As an entrepreneur, there is never a shortage of things that you can focus on. However, having a successful day doesn't mean that I have to do 10 million things. When you wake up each morning, identify the top 3 musts that will make the biggest impact in your business.

These are your non-negotiables. A lot of people overwhelm themselves with a long to-do list. They get overwhelmed because they believe that they have to accomplish everything on their list.

When you simplify your list to 3 high-leverage activities, you will change your criteria for success and transform your productivity levels. My 3 high-leverage activities include filming my live streams, recording YouTube videos, or working on a project that will make a difference in my business.

If doing 3 things feels like too much, stick with one thing. Don't be so hard on yourself. Simplify as much as you can. I recommend that you do your 3 high-leverage activities first thing in the morning. You've got the most willpower early in the day.

In her book, The Willpower Instinct, Stanford University psychologist Kelly McGonigal says that throughout the day your willpower gets depleted. This is why you are inclined to have less energy and be less disciplined later in the day.

9. Master Your Speed And Urgency

A lot of people don't achieve much because they move too slowly. In short, they aren't efficient with their time. There's one thing that I learned from my step-brother about speed and urgency that I've never forgotten.

He used to have a renovation business. I worked for him now and then doing construction. I'm not going to lie… I hated the work but I needed the extra money. I noticed how fast my brother worked in comparison to myself. 

Not only that, he never took a work break. The faster he worked, the faster the job got done. As a result, he completed more jobs in one year than most renovation business owners. He taught me the importance of having a strong work ethic.

A simple strategy that I use for being more efficient with my time is setting a timer for every task that I engage in. Say to yourself, “I will work on this part of my business for X amount of time.” The act of setting a timer will increase your urgency. You'll work faster.

Once your timer hits zero, you'll know that you have to move onto the next task. If you're a perfectionist, a mind hack like this will trick you into being OK with doing a good enough job.

10. Master Immersive Deep Work

There are two ways to work on something in your business. The first way is through spaced repetition. This involves doing something once per day, once per week, or multiple times per day or week.

For example, you can learn Spanish by taking a class once per week or 3 times per week. That can help you become more proficient. The second way is through immersion. This is when you immerse yourself into something for an extended period.

Going back to the example of learning a new language, immersion would involve traveling to a Spanish-speaking country. By immersing yourself in the Spanish culture, you'll learn the language so much faster.

The same concept applies to your business. As an example, there are some projects that I have to immerse myself in if I want to accomplish them. I can't just work on a particular project for one hour per day. Rather, I need to dedicate an entire week to it, with zero distractions.

As a result, in one week I can finish a big project that may have normally taken months to complete. If you are someone who has kids and a family, why not get an Airbnb and spend one weekend working solely on your business!? It's amazing what you can accomplish in a short period when you're able to fully immerse yourself in a task.

11. Master Celebration And Reinforcement

When you are hyper-focused on achieving your long-term goals it's easy to forget to acknowledge the small changes that you make along the way. Whenever you have a productive day, make it a priority to celebrate yourself. Maybe this means taking a day off, treating yourself to a nice dinner, or spending time with friends.

Whatever you decide to do, treat it as the reward for having a productive day. When you do this, you train your mind to link pleasure to positive behavior. By rewarding yourself, you will be motivated to engage in the behavior again. 

12. Master Accountability 

If you're only accountable to yourself, it's easy to break your commitments. The only consequence is that you'll let yourself down. Your self-esteem will take a hit because you won't trust yourself.

You will always get more done when you're accountable to someone else.

Having an accountability partner or being a part of a Mastermind group will motivate you to take action to achieve your goals. You'll be more likely to follow through on what you say you'll do because there will be consequences to NOT doing so – you'll be letting someone else down.

As an entrepreneur, having an accountability partner is non-negotiable for me. You are your boss, so it's a lot harder to hold yourself accountable. An accountability partner can be a friend, a coach, a member of a Mastermind Group, or even someone in the Project Life Mastery Global Facebook group!

These are 12 strategies for mastering time management and TRIPLING your productivity.

If you commit to applying these strategies in your business and your life, I promise that you'll see massive results. While you're in the process of building your business, I encourage you to maximize your abilities and be as productive as possible.

Once you start making a good amount of money, start outsourcing. Hire people to work IN your business so that you can work ON your business. Use leverage to scale your business. This is the smartest way to create the financial freedom that you desire.

What are the 1-2 strategies that you can immediately apply to your life? Write them down and practice taking action on them every single day!

Is there a difference between laziness and procrastination? 

The answer is yes! Procrastination is the habit of delaying an important task, whereas laziness is the unwillingness to act. However, there is one commonality amongst these two behaviors – a failure to take action. You know you should do something, but you're simply not doing it.

The knowing piece is what creates internal suffering for a lot of people. In his book, The Procrastination Equation: How to Stop Putting Things Off and Start Getting Stuff Done, Dr. Piers Steel says that self-awareness is a key part of why procrastinating makes us feel so awful.

When we procrastinate, not only are we aware that we are avoiding a task, but we also know that it will result in negative consequences. Nevertheless, we do it anyway.

We all procrastinate from time to time. However, when it becomes a chronic habit you have to put yourself in check. Tatiana and I want to share our best tips for how you can overcome laziness and procrastination and start getting more done. Let's dive in!

1. Link Pain To Not Taking Action 

The reason why a lot of people procrastinate is that they link pain to a task. For example, let's say that you know that you should work on your online business. However, because you're so overwhelmed with where to start, you end up avoiding the task altogether.

To avoid the pain of overwhelm, you decide to scroll on social media or binge Netflix shows for hours on end. You're merely attempting to distract your mind. Essentially, you're doing anything to avoid the pain of the task that you know you need to focus on.

A great way to overcome laziness and procrastination is to link pain to not taking action. What is the negative consequence of not working on your online business? Most likely, you'll experience the pain of disappointment. You'll be letting yourself down, which will reduce your self-confidence.

Maybe the pain means that you will continue to be held back financially. You will have to continue working a 9 to 5 job that you hate. Your desire to create financial freedom will remain a dream and nothing more.

Figure out what it is that you are not taking action on and ask yourself – what are the consequences of doing nothing? The truth will set you free. The more pain that you can link to not taking action, the greater the likelihood that you will overcome procrastination.

Use your pain as motivation. Pain is a great short-term motivator. However, the best long-term motivator is pleasure. You also want to link pleasure to doing what you're procrastinating on.

What is the pleasure that you will receive from taking action?

Let's go back to the example of building an online business. The pleasures you receive may be in the form of finally quitting your 9 to 5 job and creating passive income.

Maybe it will mean that you have the freedom of time to travel, take up new hobbies, or spend more time with your loved ones. Once you've mastered the pain/pleasure principle, it's all about building momentum as you continue to take massive action.

2. Have a Vision For Your Life 

Creating a vision for your life is a powerful way to overcome laziness and procrastination. A vision gives your life a sense of purpose and direction. Once you have a vision, you have a compass. You know where you want to go and you are inspired to take action to get there.

The reason why a lot of people procrastinate is that they don't have a strong ‘WHY' or a clear focus on what they are trying to achieve. When you have a vision for your life you are motivated to make that vision a reality. There are two types of motivation – push and pull.

Push motivation takes a lot of effort. It is only sustainable for a short period of time. Eventually, you run out of energy. Conversely, pull motivation is when you're pulled towards something. It doesn't require as much effort on your part because you want to do it.

When you're procrastinating, you're thinking small. It's important to think broader, which is where a vision comes into play. We encourage you to dream big! Make your vision so compelling and exciting that it makes you jump out of bed every day.

3. Set SMART Goals 

Once you know what your vision is, you can then set goals. The reason why a lot of people fail to achieve their goals is that they set goals that are too difficult to achieve.

This is why you want to make sure that your goals are specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timely. Doing so will ensure that you set yourself up for success.

Once you have set your goals, you want to work towards them. This will require that you break down your goals even further. We recommend creating a schedule that you adhere to on a daily basis. Jorden Peterson has a great video that we recommend you watch called Make a Damn Schedule.

He says that the important thing about a schedule is that you don't make it feel like you're in prison. The reason why a lot of people don't like setting schedules is that they don't want to put themselves into a box. You want to set up your day in a favorable way for YOU.

Review your goals and create a day that you'll enjoy and be proud of.

When you're scheduling your day, negotiate with yourself. Don't be a tyrant. There will be tasks that you have to do that you may not want to do. Get creative and figure out how you can link more pleasure to the experience of doing something monotonous. Trick your brain into enjoying the process!

Have you ever had a bad day?

Who hasn't!? Bad days are a normal part of life. You can't be happy 100% of the time. It's just not realistic.

Sometimes we need to experience bad days so that we can appreciate the good days even more.

Where people get into trouble is when they associate bad days with a bad life.

You can take a bad day and revamp it so that it becomes something of value. It all comes down to the perspective you adopt.

Keep reading to find out how you can turn your bad day into a good one.

Let's face it… life is filled with highs and lows.

You have a bad argument with your partner, you spill coffee all over your shirt before a big meeting, you lose a big sale, or get an expensive speeding ticket. Life happens at the worst of times. The trick is to not let these low moments ruin your entire day.

There will be days when you feel like you just can't win. Maybe you won't be able to bounce back as quickly as you like. It doesn't mean that you're a failure or that life is out to get you. Quite the opposite. It means that you are human.

Your job is to learn how to become the master of your emotions so that the small problems don't become big problems.

When your emotions get the best of you, a bad day can start to feel like a bad life. The earlier you catch yourself spiraling, the quicker that you can do something about it. The only thing that you have control over is your reaction to what happens to you.

From my experience, the easiest way to shift how you feel is to change where you are.

Research shows that a change of scenery often helps signal to your brain that the current mood doesn’t need to be sustained. Go for a walk, go to the gym, drive to the beach, listen to a podcast, jump on a rebounder, or clean your house.

Anything that allows you to clear your mind and process things from a different state of mind is key.

This is why I'm such a big believer in having a morning ritual. I've been practicing rituals for 15 years. It's the single most powerful thing that I've done to change every area of my life.

When you take time every day to nourish your physical, mental, and emotional state, you are less likely to be triggered by stressors. More importantly, you are better able to access a more optimistic perspective on life.

Just like your physical body needs attention, so too does your mind. Becoming the master of your mind is a skill that is learned through repeated practice. Rituals help your mind and body stay in peak condition so that you're able to turn your bad days into good ones more quickly.

When you feel your best, you do your best.

When I reflect back on some of the ‘bad days' that I've had, I've come to realize that those were just bad moments. By doing the inner work to not become a victim of my mind, I've learned to move forward faster.

When I feel my mood start to shift in a negative direction, I immediately ask myself – “How can I turn this problem into an opportunity?” All of the sudden, I start priming my brain to look for the good. I focus on what is working instead of what is not.

By changing my emotional state, I change my behaviors. This means that I'm able to get back on track quicker. Don't let a bad morning or afternoon dictate how you're going to feel for the rest of your day.

You have the power to turn a bad day into a good one.

The next time that you're feeling down, look at yourself in the mirror and remind yourself, “It’s not a bad life, just a bad day.” That simple shift in thinking will set you up for success.

Are you ready to change your story and create new possibilities in your life?

We all have painful chapters in our lives. However, if we allow these chapters to define who we are, we risk becoming a victim of our life circumstances.

In this blog, I share a framework that will help free you from emotional pain and suffering so that you can become the creator of your life story.

You don't have to remain stuck in a story that disempowers you. At this moment, you can start writing a new narrative, with you as the hero of your life. 

If you're ready to change your story and take back control of your life, read this!

Are you ready to change your story and start mastering every area of your life? CLICK HERE to join my monthly Life Mastery Accelerator mentoring program!

What is your life story?

Your thoughts become your beliefs, and your beliefs create stories about who you are and what you are capable of.

Thus, how you live your life is determined by the stories that you tell yourself. If this story is disempowering, your life will be the same. The great news is that you can rewrite your life story so that you become the victor of your life.

I've been studying psychology for 15 years now. I have always been curious about how the mind works and why people think the way that they do.

I have studied many different schools of psychotherapy. Time and time again, I have found one commonality that exists amongst them.

Regardless of the therapeutic approach used, when someone shifts the meaning that they ascribe to their life circumstances, their entire life changes.

We create meanings from our life experiences. The meaning that you give to any event, interaction, or outcome will determine the emotional tone of your experience and the feelings you bring about throughout your life.

Thus, if you can reframe your experiences, you will change your story. The framework that I'm going to share with you today will help you better understand your mind so that you feel empowered to change your story. Let's dive in! 

Event vs. Story

When an event happens to us, we create a story about the event. The story is what we think or feel about the event, which gives meaning to it. When we merge the event with the story, it becomes one.

The story is where all of the pain and suffering lies. Nothing has meaning until we give it meaning. You create freedom in your life when you can separate an event from a story. This speaks to the power of reframing.

When you reframe your life experiences in a more positive light, you change the story that you tell yourself and reshape your reality. Let me give you an example of how reframing works.

Let's say that you failed a Math test when you were in elementary school. That event resulted in you creating a story that you're stupid. On top of that, maybe your parents got mad at you for failing the test, which made you feel even worse about yourself.

These comments further affirmed that you aren't a smart person. You carry this story into adulthood and sabotage every opportunity that comes your way because you have the limiting belief that you're not worthy of success. 

As long as you allow your past to dictate your future, your future will continue looking like the past. Your life will not change until you change your story.

Before you can change your story, you need to know what it is that you need to change.

What is your story and how is this story holding you back in life? Take a moment to reflect upon the events of your life that led you to create your life story. What are the meanings and core beliefs about yourself that came out of these events?

Whatever you believe about yourself, others or the world will continue to manifest itself, otherwise known as a self-fulfilling prophecy. By simply expecting something to happen, you'll inadvertently cause it to happen.

You are the creator of your life story. Thus, you have the power to rewrite narratives that no longer serve you. You don't have to carry around any more emotional pain if you don't want to. 

Changing your story can change your life. 

Your story of who you are and what you are capable of is just a story. At any given moment, you can rewrite the narrative.

Never forget that you are not limited by your past, so start creating the empowering story that your future self will thank you for.

Do you need motivation to build your eCommerce business? I'm here to help you to take action.

A lot of people have a desire to start an eCommerce business, but they don't know where to begin. This is where I come in.

I've built a 7-figure online business from scratch. I know what works and what doesn't when it comes to building a business.

The potential to make money in the eCommerce world is huge right now.

Ready to find out how you can take advantage of this huge opportunity? Keep reading!

Do you want my ultimate guide for making money on Amazon? CLICK HERE to get instant access to my FREE Amazon FBA training!

eCommerce is growing at an unrivaled rate all over the world.

eCommerce sales reached $196 billion in the first quarter of 2021. If you're sitting there thinking, “Wait, is that even possible, given the current state of the global economy?” The answer is yes! If you are someone who aspires to quit your 9-to-5 job and become your own boss, an eCommerce business is your golden ticket.

When my fiancée, Tatiana, and I started our online businesses we didn't believe that it was possible to achieve the kind of success that we have now. We were wrong. Both Tatiana and I have built successful eCommerce businesses that afford us the ability to live the laptop lifestyle, on our terms. We are able to travel the world, work from home, and be our own bosses.

Because we have set ourselves up to be financially free now, we never have to worry about money again. How would your life change if you could create this reality?

Tatiana makes $222,000 per month on Amazon & Shopify and she is only 26 years old. When she first started her eCommerce business she had zero business experience. Keep in mind that Tatiana's first product wasn't the one that made her a millionaire.

She chose a simple, small product that would allow her to gain experience, confidence, and knowledge as an Amazon seller. As a result, she was able to leverage her success with her second and third products. Because Tatiana was so young when she started her Amazon business, she had a naive way of going about things.

In actuality, this mindset worked to her advantage. She didn't worry about what could go wrong, which is the trap that I see so many people fall into. Instead, she took massive action on what she was taught and focused on what could go right. Yes, she made mistakes along the way, some of which were costly.

However, mistakes come with the territory of being an entrepreneur.

All that matters is how you respond to the mistakes you make. Researchers from The Chinese University of Hong Kong identified two types of responses after making a mistake: blaming approach and problem-solving approach. While the blaming approach leads to destructive behaviors, the problem-solving approach leads to new insights and smarter ways of working.

Not surprisingly, taking the latter approach is the best option. Failures are the stepping stones to success. Make it your goal to fail forward, meaning that you find the lessons in every mistake. This is what ensures that you don't make the same mistakes twice and that you are able to transform challenges into opportunities for growth.

When you start an online business you don't have to know how to do everything right away. As Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “You don't need to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.” Start small, learn as much as you can, take action, and move onto the next thing. From personal experience, I can tell you that building your eCommerce business with a long-term perspective from the onset will be key to your success.

One thing is for sure… COVID-19 has changed the world and eCommerce has been forced to evolve with it. More and more people are shopping online and will continue to do so. Now is the time to take advantage of this opportunity.

An eCommerce business can transform your entire life.

If you are willing to delay instant gratification and invest time, energy, and hard work into building a business, there is no limit to what you can achieve. You can set up your entire future, just by making the decision today that you're ready to design life on your terms.

There are those who merely dream of success, while there are others who take action and make it happen. Which person will you be?

If you've been struggling to take action to achieve your goals, you need to read this.

Nothing happens without action. You can plan all you want. However, you won't see results unless you execute your plan.

Taking action is easy. Still, time and time again, I see taking action as the single biggest obstacle that people face on the road to achievement. Why?

Inside this blog, I am going to ignite a fire inside of you, so that you feel empowered to start turning your dreams into reality.

Keep reading to discover tangible tips for how you can shift from inaction to action and start the journey towards actualizing your potential!

Are you an action-taker or a procrastinator? 

Put your hand up if you've ever messaged a good friend and said, “Ugh, I have zero motivation today.” We all lose motivation from time to time and fall into procrastination mode. Don't beat yourself up.

Procrastination is merely a learned behavior, meaning that you can easily break the habit by… you guessed it… TAKING ACTION! When you think about it, low motivation is a great wake-up call.

If you listen to what it’s trying to tell you and take action to correct it, you will accelerate your success in life. Here's where I come in… by the time you're done reading this blog, you'll have tips that will inspire you to take action, even when you don't feel like it.

I want to be sensitive to the fact that some people's mental health has taken a hit since the onset of the pandemic. I've struggled with mental health issues in the past. I understand how hard it can be to do anything when you don't feel your best.

If you are someone who struggles with mental health issues, please know that this isn't your reality 100% of the time. I can guarantee that there are moments when you feel good, even if they are fleeting.

If you are someone who feels depressed 95% of your waking hours, you need to take advantage of the 5% of the time when you don't feel this way. Use the energy that you have to do things that nourish your mind, body, and spirit.

In effect, practice stepping outside of your comfort zone and doing hard things.

If you're depressed or lacking in motivation, you need to understand that your comfort zone doesn't want you to be a happy, productive action-taker. Rather, it wants to preserve the identity that you've created and reinforced inside of your zone of comfort.

Thus, when you introduce a new way of being and showing up in your life, your ego will try to bring you back into comfort. It's a survival mechanism. If you want to break through this, you need to build your willpower muscle and challenge yourself to act, in spite of how you feel.

Feeling depressed 95% of your day while eventually drop to 94%, and so on. Over time, you will feel better about yourself, which in turn, will inspire you to be more productive.

Conversely, when you're not feeling good, don't fall into the trap of punishing yourself. Doing so sends a message to your brain that says, “Why even dream or go for anything when I'm always disappointing myself?” When you think in this way, you self-sabotage your efforts.

Accept that you're having a bad day and remember that this too shall pass. It's just a bad day, not a bad life. Every day is a new opportunity to begin again.

I want to talk about 3 simple ways that you can boost your motivation and take action, even if you don't feel like it. Let's dive in!

1. Have A Purpose Greater Than Yourself 

In my opinion, purpose drives motivation. When you have a purpose that is bigger than yourself, it's easier to get yourself out of a funk and take action. As human beings, oftentimes we will do more for others than we will for ourselves.

As an example, I love my new puppy, Kobe, more than anything, However, I don't always feel like training or walking him. Nevertheless, I do it because I care about him more than myself in many ways. I have a responsibility, which empowers me to rise to the occasion.

The same thing goes with my online business. I have people who rely on me to show up and add value. Sometimes I don't feel like filming a YouTube video, but I do it because my purpose drives me. When you don't have responsibilities or people that you're accountable to, it's easier to sit around and be lazy.

2. Find An Accountability Buddy

If you're only accountable to yourself, it's easy to find excuses and back out of your commitments. There are zero consequences to not taking action because nobody else knows about it.

Unfortunately, when you don't hold yourself accountable, your self-esteem dwindles. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Conversely, when you're accountable to someone else, like a friend or a coach, you are much more likely to follow through on what you say you are going to do.

Everyone needs someone in their corner, encouraging them to stay on track with their goals and not give up when challenges present themselves. As a result, you will perform at a higher level and your motivation will skyrocket.

Successful people accomplish their goals consistently because they leverage the power of accountability. They are either a part of an accountability group, in the form of a Mastermind or a community, or they work 1-on-1 with a mentor or a coach.

If you're looking for more support or an accountability buddy, I want to invite you to join my FREE Project Life Mastery Facebook Group. In the words of Stephen Covey, “Accountability breeds response-ability.” There is no greater gift that you can give yourself on your journey to accomplishing your goals.

3. Create A Morning Ritual 

The mornings are when you have the most willpower. Thus, it's the best time to take action and be productive. When you take care of your mind, body, and spirit every single day, you build self-discipline. Not only will you feel good, but you'll also get so much more out of your day.

A morning ritual primes you for success. If you want to understand how willpower works, I recommend that you read the book, The Willpower Instinct: How Self-Control Works, Why It Matters, and What You Can Do to Get More of It. Inside, Dr. Kelly McGonigal outlines how you can harness self-control to improve your health, happiness, and productivity.

When you take action to show up for yourself, you must reward yourself for engaging in healthy habits. By reinforcing positive behaviors, you will be motivated to repeat those behaviors.

Always remember that the consistency with which you engage in a habit matters more than the duration. The more that you practice rituals, the less willpower you'll need to engage in them over time.

If you need help creating a morning ritual, I've got a 7-day program called Morning Ritual Mastery where I coach you through how to create an empowering ritual.

Over the last 15 years of my life, I've studied the habits of the most remarkable people throughout history. I've compiled their habits and wrote a book for you to benefit from called 67 Morning Ritual Habits For The Body, Mind, And Spirit.

If you don't have a morning ritual already, I hope these resources motivate you to create one so that you can be at your best every single day.

This is how to take action, even if you don't feel like it.

Sometimes you won't want to do anything, and that's OK. However, don't make it a habit. Push yourself to do hard things. Motivation is a muscle. The more you flex it, the stronger it gets.

Commit to being an action-taker. Set small goals for yourself at the onset, and celebrate your wins. This will give you the motivation to take on bigger goals and more actions.

Over time, taking action will become habitual. You won't even have to think twice about doing it. Now go take action to make that way of being your reality!

If you want to become a millionaire, you'll want to read this.

The amount of money that you make doesn't start with your title.

Rather, the driving factor that enables people to build massive wealth comes down to mindset.

I've been studying self-made millionaires for the last 18 years. What I've found is that they share similar success habits.

If you are ready to start thinking and acting as if you are already a millionaire, keep reading to find out the 7 millionaire habits that changed my life!

I went from broke to millionaire.

Those of you who follow me know my story. I didn't grow up having a lot of money. My parents went through a really bad bankruptcy, which resulted in them getting a divorce. This experience created a lot of turmoil in my family. Thus, from an early age, I associated pain with not having money.

I never wanted to struggle financially. When I was in my 20's, I made the decision that I would do whatever it took to become a millionaire. For 18 years I've been on a self-development journey. I've been learning and consuming knowledge from the most successful millionaires in the world.

I believe that one of the best and easiest ways to create success is to study success. Millionaires aren't lucky. Rather, they do specific things every single day that contributes to their success.

I intentionally placed myself in the right environments with people who were more successful than I was. Furthermore, I practiced the success habits of the super-rich. As a result, I became a millionaire at 27 years old.

These are the 7 millionaire habits that have made the biggest impact in my life. Let's dive in!

1. The Habit of Goal-Setting

If you want to become a millionaire, you have to know exactly what it is that you want. Nobody becomes a millionaire by accident. If you want to achieve massive success you need to have a millionaire vision. A vision gives you a sense of direction.

Take a moment and reflect upon what you want your life to look like 10 years down the road. Visualize it AS IF it has already become your reality. Activate all of your senses and imagine yourself there.

Create the experience of emotions you’d be feeling if you’d already achieved it. Get clear and specific on your destination. Your imagination is the preview of your life's coming attractions.

Once you have your vision statement, you then need to create goals. Goal-setting is a habit. It's not something that you just do once. I encourage you to break down your vision into yearly, quarterly, monthly, and weekly goals.

When it comes to setting goals, you must prioritize them. Also, you should regularly check in on the progress of your goals. Ideally, every single day. Doing so will help remind you what you are focused on achieving. The more that you focus on your goals, the more likely you will achieve them.

2. The Habit of Focusing On Your ‘Why'

What will determine whether or not you achieve your goals is the reason you have to take massive action. A lot of people have goals, but they are lacking motivation. This is why your ‘why' is so important.

You need to create a daily habit of reminding yourself why you want to become a millionaire. I'm sure that you have an idea of what you need to do to create more success in your life.

The reason why you aren't doing what you know you should do is that your ‘why' isn't strong enough. You're linking more pain to taking action than not taking action. That's what procrastination is.

It's not until you want something bad enough that you get what it is that you want. Are you willing to do whatever it takes to become a millionaire? If you want success bad enough, you'll go above and beyond.

I like to make a list of 100 reasons why I will achieve a specific goal. At first, you may struggle with this process. The ego wants you to stay inside your comfort zone. Push yourself and commit to coming up with 100 reasons.

Once you've got your list, make it a habit of reading a few of them every single day. Doing so will motivate you and ensure that you continue taking massive action.

3. The Habit of Massive Action 

You cannot achieve anything in life without taking massive action. It is the holy grail. Everything else that we talk about is useless unless you're taking massive action. Massive action is a habit.

It's a muscle that you build every single day. The more actions that you take, the more confident that you will be. In turn, you will become empowered to do more. Every time that you take action, you move one step closer to creating the life that you want.

In today's digital world, knowledge is more accessible than ever before. Don't get me wrong… consuming knowledge is great. However, be mindful that you aren't overloading yourself with information to the point where you do nothing with it.

Analysis paralysis is our tendency to seek more information than is needed to make decisions and take action. If you are not implementing what you're learning, you're wasting your time and energy. Knowledge isn't power. Rather, it's potential power.

Knowledge is only power to the extent that it is used. The real power is taking massive action. Every day you have an opportunity to take action, whether it's exercising, meditating, working on your business, or reading books. When you commit to showing up for yourself, you master your time, health, and energy.

4. The Habit of Reframing Failure and Disappointment 

Becoming a millionaire isn't easy. You will experience a lot of challenges along the way. There will be times when you make mistakes that waste your time and money. You'll have goals that you set that won't come to fruition.

What you expect should happen will not happen in the way that you wanted it to. That's called the process of success. Everybody who has become a millionaire has gone through these ups and downs.

The difference between those who succeed and those who fail comes down to meaning and perspective. Any time that you face a setback in life, you have two choices. You can either let your pain prevent you from taking action or you can reframe an event as a learning opportunity.

It's not what happens to you, but how you respond to it that matters. Successful people don't focus on what isn't working. Rather, they are constantly finding ways to leverage their fears.

Failure is a great thing! It tells you what works and what doesn't. Ultimately, this helps you pay more attention to what you are doing. As a result, you won't make the same mistakes twice.

When things get difficult, make it a habit of practicing reframing your failures. Over time, you will start making failure work for you instead of against you.

5. The Habit of Daily Learning 

You're engaging in this habit right now! I commend you for it. Daily learning can be in the form of books, podcasts, YouTube videos, online courses, or mentors to name a few things. I have been improving myself on a daily basis since I was 17 years old.

In particular, building the habit of reading every day has helped me create a lot of wealth. If you love reading, check out my top 10 must-read books for creating financial freedom. If you want to be successful at anything, you have to model success.

Self-education will help you get to where you want to go, faster. This is how you will compress decades into days. The more that you learn, the more money that you will earn. It's that simple.

6. The Habit of Long-Term Thinking

Becoming a millionaire is a long-term game. Success won't happen overnight. To become a millionaire you will need to make important decisions. These decisions may not seem important to you when you're making them.

However, when repeated, these decisions can transform your entire life. Most people make decisions with their time and money on things that give them immediate gratification. Unfortunately, there is always a cost to doing so.

Millionaires delay gratification and make sacrifices that will benefit them, long-term. You have to pay a price to achieve success. I've had to make a lot of sacrifices to get to where I am today.

Again, ask yourself – how badly do you want success? Successful people do what others will not.

7. The Habit of Surrounding Yourself With Success 

You are the by-product of the average of the five people that you spend the most time with. If those people are broke, lazy, and depressed, they are going to negatively influence your energy, belief systems, and behaviors.

If you want to become a millionaire, you've got to put yourself in environments with people who are already millionaires. You never want to strive to be the smartest person in a room. You won't grow in those rooms!

Rather, surround yourself with people who have already achieved what it is that you desire. In my experience, ultra-successful people are more than happy to share their recipe for success. I understand that it's easier said than done to surround yourself with millionaires. It takes time, but it's possible.

A great way to get in close proximity with millionaires is to attend their live events. If that isn't possible, learn as much as you can from them online, through their courses, podcasts, YouTube videos, books, or training programs.

If you aspire to be mentored by a millionaire, the best way to go about doing this is by adding value. Don't be a taker and just reach out to someone and ask him/her to mentor you. Always strive to be of service first.

Comment on their social media posts, write blog posts, or create YouTube videos where you mention their name and highlight their expertise. Win their respect and make them feel appreciated.

Will you apply these 7 millionaire habits?

Habits are the result of repeated actions. When I look back on my life, these are the habits that have contributed most to my success. Think and act as if you are already a millionaire. Which habit will you take action on today?

Motivation is a key ingredient for entrepreneurial success. It is the secret sauce that turns a dream into a reality.

Inside this blog, I give the best advice for starting an online business in 2021.

Motivation is what gets you started.

Everyone is capable of building an online business. I've never met anyone who isn't capable of it. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that everyone is built for it. Not everyone is willing to go through the entrepreneurial journey.

In the world of entrepreneurship, there are a lot of things that aren't certain. However, there is one thing that you can be certain of – you will encounter failures and disappointments. Success isn't a linear process. Rather, it's a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows. There will be ups and downs.

With growth, comes setbacks. It always comes back to this truth… how bad do you want it? Bad enough that you're willing to do anything and everything to achieve success?

When I first started my online business I was willing to sacrifice things that others would not. There was no Plan B for the direction that I wanted my life to take. I was willing to work as if my life depended on it. If I couldn't find a way, I was willing to make a way.

Being an entrepreneur isn't easy.

One of the most common reasons why entrepreneurs give up is because of a lack of determination, motivation, and grit. It takes serious commitment to start and build an online business. You've got to be willing to be all-in.

When people first start their online business there is a surge of excitement and motivation. They are ready to be their own boss, make their own schedule, and have freedom of time. However, they are soon hit with the reality of what it actually takes to be successful.

Running a business is like raising a child. You have to invest an insane amount of time, hard work, and passion into it if you want to see it grow. Here is my BEST advice for starting an online business the right way in 2021.

1. Take Imperfect Action 

A lot of people fall into the trap of saying all of the things that they want to do in their online business. However, they never end up taking action to make them happen. Stop thinking and start doing! Stop wasting time planning and waiting for the perfect time to start. Just start.

When you move into action mode, you beat analysis paralysis. Take action every day to grow your business. It doesn't matter how slow you go, just don't stop. By taking one step at a time and making progress, it will build your confidence. In turn, you will be inspired to do more. This is when your business has the potential to scale.

2. Invest in Yourself 

The more that you learn, the more money that you will earn. It's that simple. If you want to add more value, you must commit to growing and improving yourself. The success that I have today is because of the thousands of hours and tens of thousands of dollars that I've invested into my personal development.

In short, I took crazy and extreme actions to be successful. I knew that if I wanted to grow my business, I first had to grow myself. I went all in and it paid off. When you first start your online business there is massive a learning curve. I'm not going to lie… it's challenging.

At first, everything is brand new. This is why I'm a big believer in investing in training programs, courses, mentors, and coaches. Anything that helps you fastrack your success and shorten your learning curve is key.

3. Treat Your Online Business Like A Job

Entrepreneurship is a career. If you want to succeed, you have to treat it as such. You can't dabble. A lot of people get themselves into trouble because they don't have any accountability system in place.

In a 9 to 5 job, you are accountable to your boss – you have to do whatever he/she tells you to do. If you don't, you get fired. There are consequences.

However, as an entrepreneur, you are only accountable to yourself. Everything is on YOU. There are no set work hours. Thus, you've got to carve out specific times during the day that you devote to building your business.

You've got to be diligent. If you treat your online business like you would a job, you will make progress and get results. Give your online business the focus that it deserves. Treat it like the real business that it is.

This is my best advice for starting an online business.

Success isn't a matter of ability. Rather, it's a matter of motivation. If you want something bad enough and you refuse to give up, there is no limit to how successful you can be.

Commit to yourself that 2021 will be the year that you build an online business that adds massive value to the world. I know that you're capable of doing it. The question is… do you know?
