Did you know that only 5% of people will ever reach financial freedom?
Crazy right!
In my high school class of 273, this sadly means ONLY 16-17 of us will achieve financial freedom when we retire.
So what’s the difference?
The 5% are willing to do things that the 95% aren’t willing to…
Here’s the thing, no one in the 95% sets out with the intention of being mediocre, broke, overweight, or not to achieve their goals.
The 95% lives by what they “feel” like doing and the 5% lives by their principles.
The great Zig Ziglar said:
“You will achieve only to the level of success in life that your personal development is.”
The more value you put out into the world, the more you're going to receive in return.
One of the things I realized this past year was that I was working to survive and wasn't actually building the life I want.
Things needed to change to get a different result.
One of those areas I identified to change was my morning routine, which had fallen off because of work.
Remember to always start here, and I’ll explain more below.
With new information, comes the opportunity for new action, and that information came in the form of a book I’d highly recommend called the Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod.
The main point of the book is to change your morning, and ultimately your life.
Did you know that we have triggers for certain emotions and behaviors?
For example, when you hear a song and it immediately puts you in a good mood.
That's a trigger, and they can be positive or negative.
Also, triggers can be set intentionally or unintentionally.
One of the best intentional triggers to create is in the morning because there are multiple things to “set” in your unconscious mind; like the sound of your alarm clock, or the smell of coffee or tea.
Once these triggers are set, and the good habit created, the positive actions of your morning will be on autopilot!
In addition, creating an empowering morning routine incorporates the Biblical principle of “First Fruits”, which means that the blessing resides in the FIRST part of your money, your time, your year, your day, etc…
Read more about it here.
This is why the ancient Israelites gave God the first part of their crops, their wealth, and dedicated their offspring to Him because the blessing resides there.
So whether you are a Christian or not, this principle applies to your life and is still true today!
In order to create positive change, start in the morning.
The Miracle Morning is great because it's a simple system to change your life by prioritizing your personal development, in order to put more value out into the world.
I’d HIGHLY ENCOURAGE you to read it, but in case you don’t, the main principle in the book is the acronym S.A.V.E.R.S. which stands for:
Silence.
Affirmations.
Visualization.
Exercise.
Reading.
Scribing (writing or journaling).
You do these six things every morning to create that positive change.
Even if you only have one minute for each of them, the point is to actually do it!
Remember if you do what you've always done, you’ll get the same result you've always had.
I’ve implemented this and it’s radically changed my energy, and has removed the lost feeling I had last year.
Losing the practice of my morning routine, left me feeling far from God and I’ll never let myself get back to that place.
So I challenge you to prioritize your mornings.
