The only 3 tips you need to achieve ANY goal.

Stop overcomplicating it and do these 3 things.

Take a second to really picture this.

If you were financially free, physically fit, and you had an awesome relationship with your partner who shared your goals — how would that feel?

What would your days look like?
What would you look like?
How would you be different?

Here’s the cool part: the path to all of these is identical.

So, stop overcomplicating it and keep reading :)

WHY IT WORKS - inspired idiots

1.


Imagine not showing up to your job, but still expecting to get paid. Seems silly, right?

Let me ask you, Have you stopped showing up for yourself, yet still expect to live happily?

Silly, indeed.

We have to make it a routine to work on the things we want to see happen.

What exactly that looks like for you depends on your specific goals. But you have to show up and feel like you’re putting in real effort.

Fitness: show up for your health every single day. Whether that’s to the gym or to a jog, for 60 minutes or 15 — it doesn’t matter what “fitness” looks like for you. What does matter is that you lock it into your daily life.

Business: most people who start their own money-making have NO idea what they’re doing, but the ones who become successful just keep doing it. They commit to showing up and every day they get 1% better.

Relationships: your relationships thrive on simple gestures. A 10-second sentence like:
“Hey, I haven’t said this enough lately, but I just want you to know that I appreciate you”
accomplishes the small effort to keep your relationship from wilting like a sad flower.

Putting effort into something every day, even if only for a few minutes, forces you to keep progressing.
Which leads us to…

where you've already been (far left side of staircase) where you can be (far right of staircase)

Imagine you’re at a good old 9-5. Your boss comes up to you and says
“We’re gonna give you less money, cool?”
You’d probably say something like “Umm, no…I quit.”
But if he said, “We’re gonna pay you more money, cool?”
You’d probably be like “HELL YEAH, THAT’S COOL!”

We as humans never want to feel like we’re declining in life.
We don’t want to have less money or less mobility or less love.
Can we all agree? Yes.

So, then stop declining your effort! Stop trying less!

Most of us grew up in middle-class lifestyles that encouraged us to settle in. We settle into a career and into a marriage, and everything gets so settled that we begin to just coast through life.

Then suddenly years have passed
and we’re still at the same job
and our relationship hasn’t felt exciting in months
and since when did it feel tiring to walk up stairs?

If you’re not aiming to step up, you are stepping down.

If you stop being as physically active as you’ve been, you’re choosing to decline in your fitness.
If you stop making the small loving gestures that you used to do for your partner, you’re choosing to decline in your relationship.

You want to keep levelling up and getting more out of life?
Then you need to keep trying.

Your “someday” is happening right now, which leads me to…

Every little tip we’ve already covered has to convert from goal to habit in your mind.

Think of anything that’s been a goal of yours for a while…

  • lose 20lb

  • finish that course

  • feel more passion

  • make an extra $2,000 per month

  • start my own [topic of interest] side business.

Now ask yourself,
Why is this still a goal, and not a habit?”

Congratulations.
You’ve just made it one.
POOF!
*fairy dust*

Stop saying that you’re going to do something, and just start implementing it.

You showing up every day for your partner isn’t a goal anymore…
You working on your body every day isn’t a goal anymore…
You progressing on your side hustle every day is not a goal anymore…

…it’s just something that you do.

The word “goal” easily becomes an excuse we keep telling ourselves as a way to postpone it to “someday.”

“I’m ‘going to’ do that thing.”
No — you’re not “going to” do it. You are doing it. You’ve incorporated it into your daily life. Working on it is a habit now.

For example: instead of saying, “I want to be in better shape,”
ask yourself, “What would someone who’s committed to fitness do?”
and take that action.

When you start acting in accordance with how you want to be, you will watch yourself become that.

Goals change. Routines change. Hobbies change.
What never changes is what’s baked into our identity.

Imagine what your life would look like if you were thriving in business, fitness, and your relationships?

Imagine it.

That’s you now.

It’s who you are.
