Knowing what you want is simple but actually doing and putting it into action seems the hardest.

You want to make this year big, so here are 4 easy steps to help you get more done and achieve your goals this year and the future.

1. WRITE DOWN your goals on paper. This is probably the most important step you can take to achieving your goals. This simple idea of having your goals down on paper makes it more tangible. It becomes sort of like a written contract to yourself. In addition, describe your goals down as specific as you can and set a deadline for each goal. Here’s an example:
   
   It’s not “I want to lose weight”, it’s “I want to lose 5 kilos by the end of June, 2013″.
   
   Instead of “I want to buy a house”, it’s “I want to buy a house in (location) for $XXX,XXX by December, 2013″
   Additionally, you want to write goals down for all areas of your life – Financial, spiritual, relationships, health, career/business, personal,etc.
   
   
2. BREAK DOWN your goals into bite-sized chunks. The reason why a lot of people don’t achieve their goals or resolutions is because they try to bite off more than they can chew. Here’s the secret. Go through each goal and break it down into small, bite-sized sub-goals.
   An easy way to do this task is to ask yourself: “In order to achieve this goal, what would I need to do?” This task will give you a blueprint to achieving your goals. It’s as simple as following through with it.
   Let’s use the “buying a house” as an example. Here’s how you would break this goal down:
   
   * Research for properties everyday by browsing online.
   * Get a loan approved for $XXX,XXX.
   * Attend inspections of potential properties.
   * In the mean time, I will keep saving and stop splurging. More deposit upfront means less interest for me in the end.
   * Move in with family by the end of January to save up more.

   You get the idea. So for each of your goals, break it down like the above example.
   
   

3. The next step is to DO IT, REWARD and CELEBRATE! It’s not enough to just to set your goals and sub-goals, you have to celebrate the achievement of each step. Give yourself a pat on the back. Reward yourself for completing a sub-goal. This will help build momentum and develop a good habit.
   
   
4. VISUALIZE your goals everyday. You mind needs to be aligned with your goals. Writing your goals down is one thing, but actually picturing yourself having achieved your goals is another. Imagine you have already achieved your goals. Feel the excitement, pleasure and pride of this fulfillment. Put your goals down in front of you where you can see it easily.

As Confucius once said, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”. Make that first step and everything else will magically follow.

Good luck and embrace the year ahead and the future!

Apart from writing an eye-popping and benefit-driven headline, bullets, call-to-action messages, what are other things you can do to improve your copy?

Here are 5 of my top tips:

1. Know What You Want to Say…Then SAY It. There are many hallmarks of good copywriting. But all of the tools and advice in the world won’t help you if you don’t know what you’re trying to say. The first thing you should do when writing copy (or anything else) is ask yourself exactly what you intend to communicate to your reader. Not something generic like “I want to write a sales letter.” But something specific, like  “I want to write a funny letter that will convince middle-aged women to buy this wonderful shampoo.”

2. Learn the Rules of Grammar, Punctuation, and Word Usage by Heart and Follow Them…Most of the Time. The rules are there for a reason. Learn them. You’ll be surprised at how many of the ones you learned as a kid aren’t really “rules” at all. But you need to know which ones are, and which ones you can break, if you want to write credible copy.

3. Don’t be Wordy. No one likes a windbag…so don’t be that guy or gal. Use tight, concise, and punchy language. This is especially important when writing for the web.

4. Don’t be a Bore. Keep your reader engaged by using fun words, varying your sentences, and making interesting points. If you bore your reader, you lose them.

5. Go with Your Gut. It’s true: your instincts as a writer are probably a lot better than you think. If something just doesn’t “sound right” then it’s probably not right. But if your gut tells you a sentence sounds perfect…go with it. Getting in the habit of developing and trusting your writing instincts is one of the keys to composing great copy. Now get out and write!

Most people are perfectionist, and that’s what stops them from getting their idea out there. They want everything to work right from the get-go. Unfortunately, this thinking is very old and stagnates a lot of businesses and individuals from getting things done.

My mantra is to keep it lean to get it going. Keep things simple and improve as you go along.

Most people invest a lot of time and money to build or create something they don’t even know would be great.

When I created SeeGoal, the list of features I proposed to my developer was just six features. Yep, just 6 features was all I wanted the app to do. Imagine starting out with 20 or more features. How much more overwhelming would that be? Not to mention, the costs.

The five features I wanted SeeGoal to do were:

1. Ability to create an account and login.
2. Ability to create new goals, to-do lists and tasks.
3. Ability to set due dates.
4. Ability to drag-and-drop goals, to-do lists and tasks.
5. Ability to invite team members to work on tasks.
6. Ability for members to upgrade their account.

That’s it.

I launched SeeGoal with only these features. Since then, I’ve gathered user feedback on improving the app. I’ve added a few more features to SeeGoal such as:

• The ability to filter goals and tasks by: Overdue, Today, Tomorrow, This Week and This Month.
• Daily Recap email of updated Goals, To-Do’s and Tasks.
• Notifications/alerts in user area.
• Ability to hide completed tasks.

That’s all you really need to get started. Not only is it an easier way to get started, it’s also better for your bank account because you’re paying your developer by the module/increment. Ultimately, there’s less risk and commitment on your end.

This doesn’t mean you should put out something that’s hardly functional. It simply means you should start out with LESS features, which is what this blog post is about–keeping it lean.

Let’s use another scenario. Let’s say you want to launch a membership site. What would be the best approach? One valuable tip I can give you is to provide enough content for the first module. So if members are paying for monthly access to content, then have the first month’s content ready. You don’t need to have 12 months of content in advance.

That’s what I’m doing with my membership site at NitroWealth. I launched the site by providing access to the first month’s private label product. Using this method, I created the whole membership site in less than a week.

So let me conclude this post by saying it again – keep it lean. You’ll see bigger and better results a lot faster using this method.

Apps are hot nowadays! Almost everyone has a smart phone which enables them to download certain apps for specific purposes.

Heard to story of Instagram being bought out by Facebook? Yep, that was sold for $1Billion. And another app called ‘Draw Something’ which was sold for $200 Million bucks! This company were almost going to call it quits, too!

There are apps for almost anything you can imagine – weather, social, games, productivity, business and more. You name it.

I’m sure you thought about creating your own app but don’t know how to go about it, which is how this post came about.

In this how to article, I’m going to detail the steps you should take to get an app up and running that’s your very own. More specifically, how to go about getting an iPhone/iOS app developed.

You’re not going to do any coding or developing, so don’t get intimidated by the sound of “creating an app”. I’m going to show you how to find qualified app developers who can create your app.

How do I know how to do it? I’m currently building my own app which I’ll be announcing later in the future. This article is based on my experience and methods. Just to give you an idea of the app I’m creating, it’s a social app which allows users to check-in to places. There’s more to it than that, but I’ll get into the nitty gritty once I’ve launched it.

So I’ve outlined the steps below so you can follow.

1. What’s Your Big Idea?

Before you do anything else, you need an app idea. This is probably the hardest step out of the rest, but don’t turn back now. If this is your first time, I would start with a small simple app.

In general, the more complex your app is, the more time, planning and money you need to spend. So keep that in mind. Also, if you’re thinking about creating a game it’s going to take a lot longer which then might lead you to either give up or run out of cash.

The difficulty about creating a game is that you need someone or a team who specializes in design and animation, plus you also need a developer who understands the development of games.

What you want to do is keep it simple. In my opinion, less is more.

Doing some research always helps. You could start by browsing through the App Store and see what’s currently hot out there. Check out the top charts. They are in the top for a reason. You don’t want to completely clone other apps, you simply want to model the idea. Basically, you want to fill in a gap in the market.

So let’s say an app does 10 different things but doesn’t do 1 feature that could be helpful, that’s the gap you want to fill.

Here are some example app ideas I can share with you:

• An app that reminds you to drink a glass of water periodically.
• An app that tells you the tide/surf conditions.
• A social app that simply tells you if there are any updates on your social media profiles
• A simple budget tool.
• An app that contains motivational quotes.
• An app that summarizes a book
• An app that shares 101 tips to ______ (fill-in-the-blanks)

Get the idea? These app ideas are quite simple yet powerful.

2. Come Up With An App Name

One rule to naming an app is to keep it short and sweet, yet unique. Have a look at some of the top apps out there. I can name a few from the top of my head – WhatsApp, Blendr, Instagram, Evernote and DropBox.

Not only are they short, but they are catchy and unique. That’s exactly what you want to go for because believe it or not, the name of your app could make or break its success.

3. What Will Your App Do?

The next step is to write everything you can to describe what your app will do.

This is an important step because you’ll be providing all these details to your app developer. So very crucial that you be as detailed as possible so the developer can give you a more accurate price quote.

List down every single feature of your app. Explain and describe exactly how your app will work–from starting the app to using the app.

4. Create a Mockup

The best way to illustrate and explain your idea to a developer is to create a mock up/wireframe of your app.

The tools I like to use is MockFlow and Balsamiq Mockups.

You can create interfaces, insert texts, buttons, fields and so on.

Alternatively, if you’re good at using Photoshop, you can design the mock up.

Let me stress out, this is just at the mock up stage. You don’t actually need to go all fancy and perfect. It only needs to show what needs to be included in your app.

5. Find a Developer

This is probably the step which you want to do thoroughly. You want to make sure you find a competent app developer.

The first place you should go is oDesk.com. You’ll find more independent developers on this site.

I’ve also had good luck finding developers on eLance.com. You’ll find more developers who are associated with a company.

The first thing you want to do is to post your job.

Basically you can use what you wrote down on step 3 where you explain how your app will work.

Also, make sure to attach your mockup.

I must repeat again, you should be as detailed as possible when posting your job. The more detailed and thorough it is, the more accurate of a quote the developer will give you.

6. Get Your App Designed

While your app is being created, you might want simultaneously get your app designed. This may be handled by your developer’s team or might not. You’ll need to check.

Finding a great app designer is not too hard.

I like to find designers from oDesk.com.

7. Track and Maintain

Once you’ve started your project, you need to make sure your developers give you a weekly update at the very least.

Make sure you keep them accountable. Followup on their progress and see what they’re working on.

8. Apply For An Apple Developer’s Account

While you’re waiting for your app to be created, you should sign up for an Apple Developer’s account. It’s required to get your app in the App store.

You can sign up at https://developer.apple.com/programs/ios

9. Submit Your App

You developer should be able handle this part for you.

What you need to have ready is a great app description. This is what viewers will see, so your copy will make a difference.

In general, Apple gives you approximately 4,000 characters or to write your description. Apple does not enforce this limit, but it’s far better to have less.

Copywriting 101 states that you should share benefits, not features. So that’s exactly what you want to do.

10. Improve

Once your app is on the market, don’t just stop there. Listen to your users. Get feedback. Get them to rate your app. Work with your team of developers to improve and enhance your app further. Who knows, maybe one day an investor might come along and buy your app for a few million dollars =)

So there you have it. Creating an app does take time and requires some capital to get started, but it’s definitely not impossible.

I hope this how to has shed some light on this subject, and inspire you to get your app idea up and running.

Again, this is a “skinny” version of the full-fledged How To article featured at NitroWealth.com. I wish I could share more, but it really is for members only. In the full report I share what to avoid, what to look for and screenshots of my very own app mockup so you can see how I do it.

If you’re not a member yet, I urge you to join now as so many others have done the same. It’s probably the best investment you’ll ever make for yourself.

No matter what business you’re in, you need to implement email marketing. In fact, it’s the first thing you should do before doing your other marketing strategies such as social media, paid advertising, and so on.

In this post, I’m going to layout an email marketing plan for you to follow so you can build a list of targeted leads, build your brand and maintain a positive relationship with your subscribers.

Here are the steps…

Step 1. Get an autoresponder

An autoresponder will allow you to collect your leads and follow-up on them, plus a whole range of other tools which are available with most autoresponder services.

I recommend you get an AWeber account. Not only is their deliveribility rate high, but you’ll also get a range of tools that will make email marketing a lot easier.

Step 2. Create an offer

What are you going to give in exchange for your visitors details? What works best is an incentive so that your visitors are more inclined to opt-in.

Here are some suggestions on what you can give:

• A PDF report or eBook
• An audio
• A video tutorial
• A “cheat sheet” where you list resources or checklists

The trick is not to give too much, but give enough so that your subscribers will get valuable and usable content they can implement right away.

For example, you might have a series of 10 ways to burn fat. If you gave just one tip your subscriber could use right now, then you’ve got valuable content.

Step 3. Build a lead capture page

Also known as a “squeeze page” or “opt-in page”. A lead capture page is simply that — a page that captures leads. Nothing else.

Take a look at one of my high-converting squeeze pages at www.ResourceCheatSheet.com.

These are the elements you should have on your page:

• An attention-grabbing, benefit-driven headline.
• List a few benefits.
• Your opt-in form.

Some people prefer to ask for an email address only while others prefer First Name and Email address. Testing and tracking shows that only asking for your visitors email address converts better. This makes sense since there are less steps your visitor needs to complete. The only disadvantage is that you can’t personalize your emails with your subscribers name.

To make life easier, I use OptimizePress to build lead capture pages quickly and easily.

Step 4. Capture leads

You have an offer, your capture page is all ready to go, so the next step now is to drive visitors to your page.

I’d recommend you start with social media sites. Mention your page to your friends, Fans and followers.

Next, you could buy traffic. Don’t worry, it has nothing to do with spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on pay-per-clicks ads. The easiest and fastest way is to buy solo ads.

There are list owners who are willing to email your offer to their list. For Internet marketing and self-improvement related niches, I would recommend you use a site called Safe Swaps.

Basically you purchase from a list owner of your choice, choose how many clicks you’d like, provide an email for them to email out, and they’ll schedule it.

I would recommend you start small and purchase 100 clicks. What you want to do is track and test your lead capture page, and that’s another topic on its own.

Once you’re confident your capture page converts, you can purchase more. Generally, the more you spend, the more leads you’ll get.

At this time, I’m unaware of any similar solo ad services for other niches. What I would do is approach established list owners in your niche and get in contact about them whether they sell solo ads.

Step 5. Follow-up messages

It’s important to make sure you have a few follow-up messages already in place to automate your email marketing. I normally do not sell anything in the first few messages. What you want to do is build a relationship with your subscribers so they’ll know, like and trust you.

I generally have a message going out on day 1, day 3, day 5, day 7 and then a weekly message. It’s a good idea to keep consistent with your mailings, but don’t go overboard. On the contrary, if you don’t email out enough, your subscribers will eventually forget who you are and unsubscribe.

Here’s a small tip – when ever you broadcast an email to your list, make sure to also load it into your autoresponder sequence so that new subscribers will get your message later down the sequence. The only exception is if you broadcasted an email related to a time restricted offer. That’s the type of message you don’t really want to load into your autoresponder sequence.

So there you have it. It really isn’t that hard to build a list of targeted subscribers. Go ahead and start building your list.

If you want a quick and easy way to building your list of subscribers, I’d suggest you join as a member of NitroWealth. Each month you’ll receive a new product which includes a lead capture page and graphics. All you need to do is insert your own autoresponder form. Plus, it includes private label rights which means you can modify the contents of the entire product. Click here to become a member.

After two years of leaving Timothy Ferriss’ The 4-Hour Workweek book collecting dust, I finally spared some time to read the book while I was in Bali.

After finishing the book, I said to myself “Why not?”.

I was inspired to give it a try. Most of all, I wanted to take advantage of what my online business offered i.e. – the freedom to work from anywhere and at anytime.

In the book, Tim Ferriss talks about creating a “muse”..or in other words, some type of product you can sell.

Thankfully enough, running an online business allows you to create multiple products in any niche, with very little expenses.

Here are some snapshots of my trip:

Pictures of Europe

I was excited about the concepts taught in the book though I must say, I was very hesitant at first because I thought I would need to sacrifice a lot — especially traveling for months, but it was an opportunity I couldn’t miss; I wanted to see the world (at least part of it) before I grew older and settled down.

Here are the countries and cities I visited during the trip:

• Dubai
• London
• The Netherlands – Amsterdam and Den Haag
• France – Paris, Nice, Monaco
• Belgium
• Italy – Rome, La Spezia, Florence, Cinque Terre
• Croatia – Sailed  for 7 days
• Greece – Santorini, Mykonos
• Turkey  – Istanbul, Cappadocia
• Nepal – Kathmandu, Pokhara
• China
• Hong Kong and Macau
• Malaysia

Nepal, Hong Kong, China and Malaysia

I packed very light because what was more important to me was to enjoy the places, trying new dishes, learning, and meeting people. Plus, I also had to carry my 17″ MacBook Pro laptop!

I’ve learned about many cultures and people along the way. From the countries I visited, you can see how diverse it is. Everyone I met were genuinely nice people. Getting lost was very easy but thankfully, most people were helpful!

Cinque Terre, Italy

The views, sights and food were amazing… From Dubai where the tallest building (Burj Khalifa) stands at 2,700ft (830m) and bearing the 45° Celsius (113° F) heat to China, where I tried the best Peking duck in the world.

In the Greek Islands, you’ll find the best sunsets! In Hong Kong, you’ll find delicious food in every corner of the street. It was probably one of the best places I enjoyed the most.

In front of the hotel I stayed in - Atlantis at The Palms in Dubai

I even volunteered in Nepal at an orphanage to help kids who are less fortunate and lost their parents due to tragic incidents. I learned that they were really happy kids, despite their past. They were probably the most friendliest people I had ever met who don’t judge you by your possessions, where you’re from and how you look. They were the happiest kids who required very simple things in life – food, shelter and love.

At the orphanage with two bright kids teaching me their language

All-in-all, it was an experience of a lifetime, and it was only possible thanks to a decision I made in 2005 to quit the vicious 9-5 cycle I was in and lead my own life. It’s given me the time + freedom to do what I want without any restrictions.

In the 4-Hour Workweek book, Tim Ferris says something along the lines of “have mini retirements instead of waiting until you’re 60-70 to enjoy the lifestyle”. This was one of my “mini retirements” that I got to enjoy.

Checking some emails while enjoying the sun in Mykonos, Greece

Just as a little side note, in a previous post, I shared 16 tools that I use to work from anywhere. These tools were used everyday while I was traveling. I recommend you read this post => 16 Must-Have Tools To Run Your Internet Business From Anywhere.

Let me end this post by leaving you with this.  Having more time and sitting by the pool, sipping pina colada is the ideal lifestyle for a lot of us, but it takes passion, dedication, persistence, learning, and most importantly – a deep desire to keep moving forward. I sure haven’t reached my desired goals, so I’m striving to keep moving forward…but just remember, you should celebrate and give yourself a pat on the back for making even the smallest milestone. That’s how momentum is built.

I hope this post has inspired you, because I definitely needed the inspiration before I even made a decision to pack my bags and see the world.

One of the things I love to do on a daily basis to stay positive is to read inspirational quotes or better yet, keep it in front of you on your whiteboard or a piece of paper. It’s amazing how just a few words can be so powerful.

At Eldorado Canyon, Colorado

So, I’d like you to contribute and share your most inspirational quote that has helped you.

Not only will it inspire me, but also everyone reading this post.

I’ll start first. Here’s one of my favorite quotes and one you’ve probably heard of. This quote has always inspired me since the beginning to just take the first step:

“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” — Confucius

As simple as it sounds, for most of us the first step is always the hardest. Once you take that first step, the rest will follow. You’ll gain that momentum as you take more and more steps.

Now the big question is…

“What’s the most inspirational quote you had heard?”

I’d love for you to share it with us! Just post it in the comments box below…

Looking forward to be inspired and motivated!

These lessons can be applied to any area of your business and life.

This is a special post to me, and it will be for you too. It’s not intended to be biased, but rather lessons I have learned, hence what the title suggest.

I have listed these valuable nuggets below. Enjoy!

1. Keep it simple. Less is more.
   
   
2. End the habit of being a perfectionist. The most important part is to get it going, and then making the changes, tweaks and improvements.
   
   
3. An idea is nothing until breath some life into it.
   
   
4. Build relationships first before you ever try to sell anything. People will naturally follow those whom they know, like and trust.
   
   
5. The latest tools aren’t going to make you an expert if you don’t know how to use it.
   
   
6. Share your knowledge. I once heard a variation of the “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime”. The variation is “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you can sell him fishing equipment.
   
   
7. If everything seems slow, you’re distracted. Distraction stops you from getting more done. If possible, eliminate as many distractions as you can – your phone, instant messaging, unnecessary websites and windows opened. Make sure people know you’re busy.
   
   
8. Keep learning. In life you either grow or you die, just like a plant. Knowledge cannot be bought, it needs to be learned.
   
   
9. Make your customers happy and they’ll keep buying from you.
   
   
10. Saving money isn’t about the amount you save, but the habit. Start saving any amount, whether it’s $5 a week or $1000 a week, it doesn’t matter. It’s the habit that matters. The law of compounding will take effect.
    
    
11. Doing more hours doesn’t necessarily mean more work done. Don’t overwhelm yourself with work just for the sake of it.
    
    
12. Building your list should be your number one priority. Your list is an asset for life.
    
    
13. Don’t spend too much at the start. Do what you can yourself first and then consider outsourcing.
    
    
14. The “fail fast” mantra should fail. It should be reworded to a more positive saying, like “launch and learn”.
    
    
15. Don’t worry about trying to compete against your competition and trying to be bigger and better. Stick with your unique selling proposition (USP).
    
    
16. Don’t try to be everything to everyone. You can’t satisfy everyone but you can satisfy a good number of loyal customers. Seth Godin’s post says it all.
    
    
17. Don’t make project management complicated, that’s when trouble starts to happen.
    
    
18. Buying established websites is a great ROI. Go to Flippa.com and you’ll find a vast variety of established websites.
    
    
19. The best way to get through your to do list is to break it down in to smaller, manageable bite sized tasks.
    
    
20. Setting a goal that’s too much ahead of time puts blinders in your path.
    
    
21. Videos are the way the go. We live in a very interactive world. Take advantage of what the Internet has to offer.
    
    
22. Switching to a Mac has helped me get more done.
    
    
23. The advantage of having an internet business is that you’re not restricted to just working from home. I can be anywhere in the world while still making money, as long as I have my laptop and an Internet connection. I’ve setup my laptop to have everything I need to run my business.
    
    
24. The possibilities are endless when you think of the opportunities around you.
    
    
25. Don’t take on more than you can handle.
    
    
26. Going back to the basics of exchanging value always works.
    
    
27. Always think “What’s in it for me?”
    
    
28. Speaking slower and with emphasis makes your speech more clearer and powerful.
    
    
29. The law of reciprocity is a golden rule to living an abundant life.
    
    
30. SEO isn’t complicated. People make it more complicated than it is.
    
    
31. If you can’t handle your current state, then you won’t be able move ahead.
    
    
32. When nothing else seems to work, there’s always faith. Always have faith in what you do. Trust your instincts.
    
    
33. Sometimes it’s best to just let go.
    
    
34. Being able to handle your low and negative moments is your true measure of overcoming obstacles.
    
    
35. Spending less time on Facebook, checking everyone’s status and photos has helped me get more done. I only check once, at the end of the day. Period.
    
    
36. I turn off and close everything and only have what I need, opened. If I’m writing a new report, I only have my text editor opened.
    
    
37. Your mastermind group will help you move forward. You’ll leverage on other people’s strengths, and that’s what will accelerate your success by miles. You’ll surround yourself with like-minded people who’ll inspire and keep you accountable.
    
    
38. There’ll never be another Facebook.
    
    
39. Basecamp rocks.
    
    
40. A market can never be saturated. Anyone can get a piece of the pie.
    
    
41. There’s plenty of information if you just search on Google.
    
    
42. You shouldn’t have to prove yourself to anyone.
    
    
43. Worry about the bigger things rather than the smaller things.
    
    
44. Dropbox makes life easier.

46. People used to be skeptical about starting a business online, now people are interested in learning.
    
    
47. Have a central location/website where you have your documentations, videos and how to’s to train people you outsource. It’ll save hours of your time.
    
    
48. Batch your work. Do emails all at once. Make all phone calls at the same time. Update your WordPress blogs all at once. You get the point.
    
    
49. Unless you’re bored, most people aren’t willing to spend the time to fiddle around. If you can provide a “ready-to-go” product/service, you’ll sell lots of it.
    
    
50. Find something that works. Do it. If it gives you results, systemize it and outsource & delegate as much of it as possible.
    
    
51. People are willing to do anything for a low cost if you look around. Check Fiverr.com.
    
    
52. Encourage visitors to share your content. You can use share buttons on your site, or simply tell your visitors to feel free to share.
    
    
53. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and the pyramids were built stone by stone, layer upon layer. Start somewhere. Take the first step. Get something out there for people to see. There’ll never be “the right time”.
    
    
54. Do something each day to move your business and life forward, even if it’s just a small bit. You’ll end up with massive improvement in a short time and build momentum.
    
    
55. In times when I’m stressed and under pressure, I get away for a moment, take deep breaths and reflect back on what’s important in life. It helps clear the mind so you get back with better focus.
    
    
56. Always be grateful for what you have and where you are at this present moment. If you’re not grateful for your current state, then you’re putting barriers which will stop you from attracting more into your life.
    
    
57. A sure-fire way to accelerate your success is to study those who are already doing what you want to achieve. Success leaves clues!
    
    
58. One thing I like to do is to learn mistakes from others so that I don’t make the same down the track.
    
    
59. Stop wasting time. Being organized is a key characteristic of achieving high.
    
    
60. A key way to grow is to stretch your comfort zones. Being “comfortable” won’t let you stretch to your fullest potential.
    
    
61. You can apply the Parkinson’s Law and Pareto’s 80/20 principle to everything you do. Parkinson’s Law dictates that work expands to fill the time available for its completion.
    
    
62. Nothing is a coincidence. There’s always a reason why.
    
    
63. What ever you find works should be done over and over and over and over and over again until it doesn’t work anymore.
    
    
64. If you’re not passionate about what you’re doing, sooner or later you’ll get bored.
    
    
65. Every morning when you wake up, ask yourself “What am I grateful for?” This will surely start your day with purpose and lots of energy.
    
    
66. Focus on what you can control.
    
    
67. Create a blog and start posting. I found that people do look and read but often don’t comment. The main idea is to get into the flow of sharing.
    
    
68. Find and connect with people in your industry. Joint-venture partners will help you grow your business dramatically as it has for me. I have a small group of JV partners but we always help each other grow, and it’s great to just have people who understand what you’re going through.
    
    
69. Life isn’t always about work. Balance your work and life areas. You want to make sure you stay sane. Make time for family, your social life, your partner, health & fitness and of course, yourself.
    
    
70. The best way to show someone you genuinely care is to share valuable knowledge, content, ideas or simply being there for them.

I hope you take what I’ve learned and apply it to your work and life. As valuable as they are to me, I’m sure they will be for you too.

Apply these now and for the years to come, and you’ll surely improve your life and business.
