Choosing the plan isn't hard.
The first question I ask is, how do I want to spend my days?
And so then you draw a box, and inside that box, how can we make the most money, reach the most people, make the biggest impact, make the contribution that you want to make, but not outside of it.
And what happens a lot of the time is people do that in reverse.
They start by asking, how can we make the most money, or reach the most people, or make the biggest impact?
And then they decide, oh, well, this is what I want to do, but it's actually outside of how they want to spend their days.
And it's not going to work out well because, you know, it goes back to our point previously about is this fun?
You know, if they don't want to spend their time that way, you're just grinding for a little while and eventually it's not going to work.
That's the key for building systems that really work is, is this how you want to spend your days?
The person who wants to live the lifestyle is much better positioned to get the result.
Like where you're at is just a lagging measure of the things that you've gone toward that.
And it seems like discipline is pretty much exactly the same.
And that's where the line between your future destiny is dictated by your current discipline.
It's just what we do, it's a habit.
The goal is not the thing that determines the outcome.
So the person who wins and the 99 people who lose, they have the same goals.
You look at the Olympic Games, presumably any event,
Everybody who's competing has the goal of winning the Olympic medal, right?
Of winning the gold.
So the goal is not the thing that makes the difference.
