The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life (Before 8AM)

Lack of Urgency
Arguably the single most significant cause of mediocrity and
unfulfilled potential, which prevents 95% of our society from
creating and living the life they truly want, is that most people have
no sense of urgency to improve themselves so they can improve
their lives. Human nature is to live with a “someday” mindset and
think life will work itself out. How’s that working out for
everybody?
This someday mindset is perpetual, and it leads to a life of
procrastination, unfulfilled potential and regret. You wake up one
day and wonder what the heck happened; how did your life end up
like this? How did you end up like this?
One of the saddest things in life is to live with regret, knowing
that you could have, be, and do so much more.
Remember this truth: now matters more than any other time in
your life, because it’s what you are doing today that is determining

---

who you’re becoming, and who you’re becoming will always
determine the quality and direction of your life.
If you don’t make the commitment today to start becoming the
person you need to be to create the extraordinary life you really
want, what makes you think tomorrow—or next week, or next
month, or next year—are going to be any different? They won’t.
And that’s why you must draw your line in the sand.
Step #3: Draw Your Line In the Sand
You’ve acknowledged and embraced the reality that 95% of society is
struggling—and that if we don’t commit to thinking and living differently
than most people, we will end up struggling, like most people. You’ve
identified the causes of mediocrity you absolutely need to remain aware of
and avoid. The 3
rd
step is to draw your line in the sand. Make a decision as to
what you are going to start doing differently from this day forward.
Not tomorrow, not next week, or next month. You’ve got to make a
decision today that you’re ready to make the necessary changes to guarantee
that you will be able to create the life you really want. To take your personal
and professional success to the level they’ve never been before, you have to
be willing to commit at a level you’ve never been committed before. Are you
ready to make that commitment?
Your entire life changes the day that you decide you will no longer
accept mediocrity for yourself. When you realize that today is the most
important day of your life. When you decide that now matters more than any
other time because it is who you are becoming each day based on the
decisions that you are making and the actions that you are taking that is
determining who you are going to be for the rest of your life.
The possibility of mediocrity exists for everyone, because being
mediocre simply means choosing—whether consciously or unconsciously—
to be the same as you’ve always been. Mediocrity has nothing to do with how
you compare to other people; it’s simply a result of not making the
commitment to continuously learn, grow, and improve yourself. Whereas
being extraordinary—which leads to extraordinary levels of success—is a
result of choosing to learn, grow, and be just a little bit better each day than
you’ve been in the past.
We’ve all experienced the pain of regret—as a result of thinking and
talking ourselves into being, doing, and having less than we are capable of.
Mediocre days turn into weeks. Weeks turn into months. Months inevitably

---

turn into years, and if we don’t change who we are now, our self-created fate
will be a life of mediocrity and unfulfilled potential, accepting less from
ourselves, and for our lives, than we truly want… and deserve.
The reality is that if we don’t change now, our life won’t change. If we
don’t get better, our life won’t get better. And if we don’t consistently invest
time into our self-improvement, our life will not improve. Yet, most of us
wake up every day and stay the same.
I think you want more for your life. I know I do. If you’re being
completely honest with yourself, you truly want to live an extraordinary life.
That doesn’t necessarily mean being rich or famous. Everyone’s dream is
different. What it does mean is living your definition of an extraordinary life.
A life where you get to call the shots, and live life on your terms, with the
freedom to do, be, and have everything you’ve ever wanted for your life. No
excuses. No regrets. Just an incredible, meaningful, and exciting life!
As stated so truthfully by bestselling author, Robin Sharma: “One of the
saddest things in life is to get to the end and look back in regret, knowing that
you could have been, done, and had so much more.” While this is the self-
imposed fate of the masses, it absolutely does not have to be yours. Today
you can draw your line in the sand. You can decide that mediocrity is no
longer acceptable for you. You can claim your greatness. You can choose to
become the person you need to be to create the extraordinary life that you
truly want. Your life can be filled with an abundance of energy, love, health,
happiness, success, financial prosperity, and everything else that you’ve ever
imagined having, doing, or being. The Miracle Morning can give you that
life.
But first, an important question.
