EDUCATIONAL DAILY PRACTICE - Be prosperous. DO EACH OF THESE THINGS EVERY DAY. Based on the ideas and daily practice developed by James Altucher. n important foundation of life's success is Athe outlook of the individual regarding the hope and expectations for his or her life. For most of us though, much of what is practiced day to day towards achieving plans and goals is left to what life brings to us, as opposed to what we bring into our moments, days, weeks and months. I do not include years here because for the purposes of this discussion, that is eternity. Eternity because 12 months, or one year is a denitive period in which you access success or failure of what has been specically achieved. From the beginning where hopes were expressed or internalized, it is important to develop metrics and parameters that will help to take us to that which we expect to achieve and celebrate. According to Kevin Elliot, an admirer of Altucher's, a productive routine can lead to good habits, a bucket of achievables, and a life of happiness. Success often trails people that are happy, talented and smart-working (not necessarily hard working), and above all, connected. Reaching this place can be very difcult for some people, while others can come across to be born with all of these things. Most people have the ability to reach their potential, but it takes a strict regimen or daily practice. This piece is an attempt to help the individual, whether he or she is a student, graduate student, professional, or even as a retiree move from a place of freely facing life and what it brings, or a tenuous program of setting objectives or plans, and leaving the outcomes to God. What follows is a plan, or call it a program that has worked for quite a few successful men and women all over the world. It is a deliberate attempt at discipline through diligence to execute a program of activities that are specic and purposeful. Altucher talks about having four legs to his practice: Spiritual, Physical, Emotional, and Mental. It's really all about not over exerting yourself in one area, but staying balanced within all the four [4]. His theory, based on his life experience, is that if you are weak on one or more of these legs, you will have difculty mastering the remaining ones. This imbalance leads to chaos and you will likely minimize your power to achieve the success you desire. Come with me to review the program developed by James Altucher – a very interesting character who has had it all before [millions of $], and lost it all, and regained it again, through a daily practice he does every day in order to stay on top of his game. He's gone through many struggling phases in his life where he has lost everything: millions of dollars, his family, his friends but later bounced back stronger, in part due to this daily practice. He came up with this program to help those willing to allow a specic plan to restrain them from allowing life to throw missiles at them instead of pushing their( God ordained) plan and agenda to a successful end. We nd his particular daily practice to be the most interesting over other knowledge-centric practices because he incorporates other activities that are often neglected by entrepreneurs and people involved in early stage startups! For example, it's very easy to skip workouts [or exercises] due to sitting at a desk writing or coding all day, or avoiding spirituality because you're stressed out. It is vital to make your life balanced if you actually want to expand your network, attract some viable opportunities for success, and go on to be successful. Otherwise, you're just be playing the lottery for success, which most of us regrettably seem to be doing! The program is based on the following the structures; A. Spiritual B. Physical C. Emotional & D. Mental 35 www.mygong.net
EDUCATIONAL A productive routine can lead to good habits. Reaching this place can be very difcult for some people, while others gure it out with ease. Most people have the ability to reach their potential, but it takes a strict program to nag you to do them, but it will keep you on track as it serves as a visual reminder or a “cheat sheet. SPIRITUAL a. Pray to a Power beyond yourself - [We recommend the God of the Bible] - It is a good thing to have a strong faith in God. b. Meditate – Meditate for <strong>15</strong> minutes, visualizing ideas in meditation for 60 minutes. Sit in a chair with your back straight. Watch your breathing c. Be grateful & Forgiving – Visualize everything and Person you are grateful for, as well as every person who has done you wrong and forgive them. d. Study & read – Read the Bible, focusing on the Books Proverbs, the Gospels [Matthew, Mark Luke & John], Daniel, Deuteronomy, etc. Think positive thoughts, and appreciate your existence. Read recommended autobiographies and self-help books. Just because everyone seems dishonest is no reason you should be. You should be proud that you can be honest. MENTAL a. Write down a list of names, of lists of ideas – 10 businesses you can start from home. 30 ways you can help others without spending any money. b. Write down a list of ideas– Then, write down even more later. Revisit it later in the day, and even the following day. c. List every productive thing you did yesterday – If you did nothing, list what you should have done. d. Complete a crossword or Sudoku puzzle – Puzzles, books and other mind-expanding activities. Whatever you, do not pooh pooh this plan or program. Discipline is essential for success. Ask anyone who had a lot of success and then lost it. They will tell you that at the core of it all, they lost themselves in indiscipline. All the Best to you in your endeavors! PHYSICAL a. WAKE UP BY 5AM - The early bird catches the worm. Besides it is the most peaceful time of the day b. Exercise or at least 20 minutes – No excuses here. It is too easy to sit in a chair all day. So go out and shoot some basketball outside, run a couple of laps around the neighborhood [a mile or 2] – or skipping. c. Do not eat after 6 pm – This is very hard, but you will sleep better, and naturally lose weight. d. Go to Sleep by 9 pm– 8 Hours of sleep a night keeps you refreshed and your faculties at their highest. EMOTIONAL a. Cut out the people that are a drag on you – The world is full of negative and misdirected acquaintances. Disengage from them and ignore them. b. Help friends, family & people you love – Except when they bring you down, no exceptions. c. You do not owe any explanations – Explaining is draining. d. Always be honest – This piece is composed by; Osei Kwadwo Biritwum Director – Programs Accelerating Productivity Initiative [API] 0245059281 36 www.mygong.net
