In today’s episode, Garth talks about why it's difficult to do, what you know you have to do and the importance of behind the scenes preparation. Success doesn’t happen when everybody is watching, success happens in the process and in the preparation to be great.
Garth explains how to get yourself educated and begin setting measured and planned goals. When you have a clear and a written plan and you'll soon realise that it doesn't take that much work to get to where you want to go and achieve what you want to achieve.
Don't just invest in your education. Invest in your education and then take action.
“Be the change that you want to see”
KEY TAKEAWAYS
It's the work you put in behind the scenes that is more important than what happens in front of other people. It's the moments when you're alone and you're talking to yourself, reasoning with yourself and making a decision. These are the moments that will define your life.
If we haven't got the things that we want to have in life, there must be a reason. It’s most likely that your initial reason or your why isn't big enough to achieve the goals.
Tie in and buy into the fact that you can help people whenever you can. If you're not developing yourself and your skill set all of the time you can't help others.
You need measured and planned goals that you can work towards. If you did one small thing per day, every day over a year you will see a difference. The things that you do will compound and have an impact on your life.
