The first thing I would do each day is an important task that’ll
help me reach my goal.
I’d only spend one hour a day on emails.
If I need something from someone, I’d ask them for it.
I’d focus on the next step.
Go ahead and religiously adopt these behaviours for a month (refer to the Chapter 8.
Don’t break bad habits to help you). You’ll be amazed at the successes you can notch
up in one month with these actions! Repeat for a few months, enjoy your successes
for a few months and you will KNOW that you have what it takes.
Practice
Choose a new belief that will support you in getting what you want in
life. Decide on four behaviours you can adopt that would validate this
belief. Make sure the behaviours are small things that can be
executed every day. Use technology (like reminders on your phone or
email) to remind you to do these four tasks daily. Repeat for 30 days.
If you skip a day or two, don’t give up. Start again and repeat for
30 days.
There’s not a single part of your life that is not affected by your attitude. Your future
will definitely be influenced by the attitude you carry with you.
Journal work
Think about your diary for the next week. Identify an interaction that
you’ll be having with someone – business or personal.
When this interaction is complete, in what sort of mental
state would you like to leave the other person?
What mental attitude to this person will work best?
What can you give to this interaction that will help you leave
the person in the desired mental state?
What mental state would you like to be in after the
interaction?
What do you need to bring to the meeting to achieve this?
