When’s the last time you set out a plan of attack...
When’s the last time you set out a plan of attack, a course of action for your day and/or business? You cannot seriously expect to be successful without a plan? A plan is what makes everything look easy. We people joke “aww he just got lucky” …there’s no such thing as luck. Luck is when preparation meets opportunity. People get “lucky” because they set intentions and live a life of purpose so when an opportunity crosses their paths they are prepared.
By being intentional and creating a plan we can better visualize and foresee our path and trajectory. This allows us to move faster and more efficiently towards our end goals rather than zig-zagging around to reach our destination. Conducting your days and business without a plan is like trying to get to a new destination without a GPS, sure you might get there but who knows hold long it will take you and all the struggles you’ll have to go through. With a plan it all becomes crystal clear, we can see down the line. We can look and know when we need to make that next turn or hire that next contractor etc.
At the battle of Gaugamela, Alexander the Great took a Calvary army of 7,000 Macedonias to battle over 40,000 Persian soldiers and won….they mutilated the Persian army. How you might ask? They had a plan of attack, a strategy and they were well trained/prepared.

DON'T BE AVERAGE!
What separates you from others, DISCIPLINE.
Discipline is what separates the exceptional from the average. We all have talent and we all have motivations in life. However, motivation can only get you so far. Passion can only get you so far, but discipline…discipline can take you anywhere you want to go in life. Michael Jordan didn’t make his high school basketball team but through discipline, through practicing relentlessly day in and day out he became the greatest of all time, and even after he won multiple championships Michael didn’t settle. He stayed disciplined. He stayed in the game. He stayed the course.
Discipline will take you where you want to go. Lean the f*ck in!
The three types of discipline are
Preventative: discipline is about establishing expectations, guidelines, and a set of overall rules for behavior to proactively prevent disruptions.
Supportive: Taking measures that support self-control for example by setting limits and having solutions to problems that can arise. As the saying goes, expect the best be prepared for the worst!
Corrective discipline: when facing a challenge or mishap, creating a plan is always a must. If you fail once, it’s ok, learn from what didn’t work and create a corrective plan of action to be followed.
Have consistency and stick with a set routine! Consistency is key when it comes to being disciplined. Once a routine is set in place, you can find it easier to stay disciplined and see results unravel.
