Do It Today: Overcome Procrastination, Improve Productivity, and Achieve More Meaningful Things

Create. Create. Create.
There’s enough opportunity for everyone in the world. The
problem is that most people don’t 
use
the opportunities. If
you want to have a specific career, go out there and create
it. The same is true for your business. And don’t focus on
limited resources, naysayers, or any other reason you
should 
not
do it. Adopt an abundance mindset. Before you
know it, you’ll have so much opportunity that you don’t
know what to do with it.
In The Netherlands, we call that a “luxury problem.” Believe
me; it’s the only problem that you want to have.

All Strength Comes From
Repetition
The biggest mistake you can make is to ignore the basics of
your profession. This is true no matter what you do, where
you live, or who you are.
When you ignore the foundation of what makes you a good
person, athlete, friend, entrepreneur, student, etc., you will
never be consistent. That’s the biggest lessons I’ve learned
from studying athletes. People who play professional sports
are under constant pressure to perform.
Take Daniel Cormier, the current UFC Light Heavyweight
Champion, and former Olympic wrestler. The 38-year-old
champion has an impressive career until now. He won
multiple gold medals as a wrestler. And in MMA, he has won
20 of his 22 fights in total. He’s considered as one of the
best.
On top of that, he’s also a combat sports analyst and co-
host of UFC Tonight on Fox Sports. The man is highly active.
What is his key to success, according to himself? Focusing
on the basics. He says:
“You don’t get to the highest levels of the sport without
having the basics in order.”
That’s not only true for sports; it’s also true for everything
else in life. Writing, speaking, selling, leading, you name it.
Without having the basics in order, you’ll never achieve your
full potential.
