it’s possible for you to reasonably eat anything placed in front of you.

you’re able to reasonably justify activities and behaviors that are, frankly, mediocre.

As your vision for yourself expands, you realize you have to make certain adjustments.

you oughta cut-back on spending all of your money and time on crap and entertainment.

You have to save more, and invest more in your education and your future.

This isnt about perfection.

Its definitely not about being busy all the time.

Actually, the balance of true success involves what Tim Ferriss callsmini-retirementsor regularsabbaticals.

Your choices must become higher quality.

Your relationships must become higher quality.

Every area of your life affects every other area of your life.

Hence the saying, How you do anything is how you do everything.

This is very high level thinking.

It only makes sense for people who have removed everything from their lives they hate.

Because the only things in your life are the things you highly value.

Everything else has slowly been weeded-out.

You are living intentionally and congruently.

You have momentum and balance.

Youre being who you truly want to be, every single day.

To actually do this not only takes time, but is extremely hard to live in practice.

Saying No to great but irrelevant opportunities is hard.

Giving up bad habits is hard.

Changing your belief system and expanding your vision takes courage.

Its so easy to revert back to small and mediocre thinking.

Youll be more present with those you love.

Youll spend your time better.

Youll pursue bigger dreams and ambitions.

Youll be more resilient during challenges.

Youll live at a higher frequency.

And everything around you will reflect that.

Said another way, most people are caught in the thick of thin things.

Hence, most people wont be successful.

Most people wont evolve and progress.

You know it, and you’re able to feel it.

And everyday, youre taking one step closer.

Soon enough, youll fully commit to being who you know you could be.

Once you pass that point of no return, nothing will stop you.
