Hitting a brick wall, breaking through, layers to learning, one step at a time.

Key lessons so far:

Common sense is not common practice.

Some of the basics that I was reminded of yet again, yet they hit me on a deeper level;l, giving me more assurance than ever before, that my goal will become a reality.

The basics:

- Be crystal clear on your outcome goal
- The goal should be achievable and excite you
- Identify the key ‘Pareto’ activities
- Take a step forward in these everyday
- Be aware of the valley of disappointment
- Read daily, even one page if that’s all you can manage. Start small. Build up to 5, 10 or 20 pages a day, as soon as you can
- Read actively - I will do a video on this
- Never give up - keep trying and measuring/journaling, changing your approach as necessary. If you do this, success is inevitable

The basics seem to be key, yet doing them with a distinct mindset seems to be the difference that makes the difference; a relentless drive, absolute belief, excitement about the vision, a correct response to setbacks…invest in you, make yourself valuable, give value, stay watchful and opportunity will show itself.
