I live by a mantra that says -
“Almost everything in my day-to-day life should be routine. Consistent. Predictable. Between the lines. Boring. But, occasionally, it’s good to get out of the box, a little on edge, a bit scared, and a lot excited.”
The truth is, you need both. There is also another truth.
Most things that make you happy and successful are pretty mundane.
Improving and enjoying your home…
Paying bills, investing, and saving…
Spending time with family…
Yes, regular life is a boring life. But it’s your consistent routines that are focused on what’s essential that allows you to have incredible highs in your life too!
Have fun and stick to what feels comfortable and working for you. 
After all, most things that make you happy and successful are mundane. It’s not a rut; it’s your comfort zone.

Mapping Your Success
Have you ever heard people preach, "Get out of your comfort zone, try new things, always stretch!" 
While true, it's only part of the story.
Look at anybody who has achieved goals and maintained success over a period, and you'll find:
1) Motivation. Successful people do whatever they can to stay motivated. It's not an occasional thing. It's an always thing.
2) Accountability. Successful people accept responsibility and ask others to hold them to their plan.
3) Planning. Successful people understand that no plan survives the first battle. They plan, work, and adjust until they get what they want. 
4) Systemization. Successful people believe success is sequential and built level-by-level. Once achieved, it is systemized and maintained. 
5) Sustainability. Successful people know that everything has an expiration date. Continuous monitoring and adjustments allow for long-term success. 
I call this system MAPSS. It's all you need to get anything you want in life.

Productivity Efficiency
I think it’s time we stop seeking more productivity. It’s too much work! I prefer being more efficient and effective. 
Here are a couple of ideas that will help:
1) Say “No” to meetings if possible. If you must, keep them short and sweet.
2) Delay paying attention to incoming communication. It’s nothing more than somebody else’s to-do list. Do your stuff first.
3) Daily interruptions will never go away. You may as well expect and plan for them.
4) Only schedule up to 50% of your day. This will give you more time for unexpected events.
5) No more multi-tasking. Finish one task before the next. 
The fastest way to be more productive is to make your ‘Did I Do It’ list as short as possible.

How To KNOW You Are a Success
Have you ever had a crazy day that involved putting out fires and wondering when it would be time to go home?
And did I mention you were doing what you love and want to be doing successfully?
Why is it that life gets crazier when things go well?
There’s a simple answer.
No matter what you do, your life will change when enough people begin paying attention to you.
Some folks will love you. Some will hate you. 
Others won’t have an opinion but will say something anyway. 
Many will be jealous. Lots will be proud. 
It doesn’t matter what you do. You will know when you have succeeded when lovers and haters come out to play simultaneously. Focus on the lovers.

Stop Driving Yourself Crazy 
Whatever you desire in your life, everything starts as a thought. It will demand your attention.
You have three options:
1) Deny it and keep moving.
2) Do it - put it into action.
3) Delay it and drive yourself crazy.
Deny it. Do with it. Delay it. The quality of your life will be a result of your choice.

You Don’t Need Plan B
Have you ever wondered how the most successful people in the world get that way?
Could it be their timing is right?  
Do they “know” somebody? 
Luck? That’s it. They get lucky!
Maybe, but I think there is more to it.
Every person I’ve ever known who achieved remarkable success did three things:
1) They recognized what they wanted and envisioned themselves living that life.
2) At some point, they commit and go all in. Their dream IS going to happen. There is no “Plan B.” 
3) They practice never-ending flexibility and perseverance regardless of what gets in the way.  They keep going until they get what they want.
Yes, it seems that you must pay a price for living the life of your dreams - and it's not money. It's YOU!
