Dan Martell - 8 Habits That Will Fix 98% of Your Problems

00:00:00.000 I'm going to show you the eight simple habits anyone can build to turn your painful problems

00:00:04.400 into a puzzle you enjoy solving. Starting with habit number one, start on hard mode.

00:00:09.560 You hear people say building momentum with easy wins. Easy wins. I'm all about going hard. When

00:00:15.920 I'm creating, when I'm writing, when I'm strategizing, when I'm thinking of the biggest

00:00:20.180 problems in my life, I do it first thing in the morning because I want to be creating connected

00:00:24.540 to my creator. And all I know is that the more I build the muscle of starting with the hardest

00:00:29.240 thing it also builds my confidence because confidence is built when we keep the commitments

00:00:33.200 we make to ourselves in private and anytime people come to me they say like oh i don't feel very

00:00:37.020 confident i'm uncertain about myself i always say it's because you're not keeping the promises you

00:00:41.600 made to yourself when nobody else is watching we often commit to the big project because that's

00:00:45.800 fun that's exciting that's easy but the game is won on the daily discipline of doing the hard thing

00:00:51.280 first not putting it off to when you feel in the mood or you feel it's going to be easier start

00:00:58.140 in hard mode but that's not where hard mode stops because it's not always the work that's holding

00:01:02.780 us back it's the energy and focus we bring to it and that's where habit number two comes in

00:01:07.060 workout every day small problems feel massive when you have low energy when you're not feeling good

00:01:13.160 about yourself every little thing feels like a mountain they also feel massive when you're

00:01:18.120 constantly living your comfort zone when you're doing the thing that feels safe see a lot of

00:01:22.520 people see me today and don't realize that not that long ago i was a little chubby and my whole

00:01:27.660 life, I struggled with my weight. I weighed 265 pounds when I was younger and I just went up and

00:01:32.440 down and up and down. And for a long time, it was this yo-yo and I always had an excuse. And then I

00:01:37.240 eventually said, no, I'm going to do the hard thing and I'm going to get way outside my comfort zone.

00:01:42.140 And I decided to get visible abs in 90 days. It was crazy, but I got ripped. But guess what else

00:01:48.280 working hard did for me? It also turned out that my nutrition and my body were connected and allowed

00:01:53.220 me to really activate my ADHD into a superpower. It built my confidence outside the gym even though

00:01:59.700 it also shaped my body and that's why today if you see anything I post on social media it's always

00:02:04.400 about sweat every day. I believe that when I go to the gym it's about my mind not my physicality

00:02:10.180 and that's why today I work out every day. I exhaust the body to tame the mind. I do the reps

00:02:16.540 in the gym to make sure that my mind knows what to focus on. The crazy part is some people go to

00:02:21.320 the gym feeling super tired and they're like i don't want to go to the gym i'm just i'm already

00:02:25.280 tired i've never left the gym not feeling better and it gives you the energy to work on life's

00:02:30.400 puzzles if you have a trouble with being consistent going to the gym here's an advanced move schedule

00:02:35.100 it with somebody else decide to choose a workout partner where you made a commitment every day at

00:02:39.320 8 a.m you go to the gym together you will do more for somebody else than you'll ever do for yourself

00:02:43.600 i've never canceled going to the gym when i knew i was going to have to meet somebody else there

00:02:47.860 So do yourself a favor, find a training buddy and go all in.

00:02:51.320 I've never met one person that couldn't find 30 minutes

00:02:53.680 to get down on the ground, do some pushups,

00:02:55.220 do some pull-up, doing some jumping jacks,

00:02:56.800 do some sit-ups, do whatever.

00:02:58.460 Body weight movements to get a sweat on,

00:03:00.460 to feel better about themselves.

00:03:01.880 And that energy will allow you to take over the world.

00:03:04.680 But you can't just brute force your way to success

00:03:06.800 or hope your way to wealth.

00:03:08.580 Habit number three is how you dial in your strategy.

00:03:11.180 Here it is.

00:03:11.840 Habit number three, measure daily.

00:03:14.020 If you're like most people,

00:03:15.080 feeling a lack of direction or spinning your wheels

00:03:17.740 or not feeling motivated,

00:03:19.280 it's usually because you can't physically see

00:03:22.240 if you're even moving towards your goal.

00:03:24.440 Most people don't even have goals.

00:03:26.100 Think about money.

00:03:27.040 One of my core philosophies is if I want my money to grow,

00:03:30.500 I gotta focus on it.

00:03:31.780 And I look at my bank account daily.

00:03:34.500 Every day I get email reports

00:03:36.480 for all the companies I'm involved in

00:03:37.840 with a daily cash position.

00:03:39.080 And I personally look at all of my bank accounts.

00:03:41.760 Why?

00:03:42.100 I learned a long time ago

00:03:43.240 that if I want something to grow, I gotta look at it.

00:03:45.620 I gotta focus on it.

00:03:46.560 I can't pretend like I don't know.

00:03:48.240 I track everything.

00:03:49.160 I track all of my food, my workouts.

00:03:51.680 All my businesses have dashboards, scorecards.

00:03:54.640 They have metrics, KPIs.

00:03:56.340 If something's important to you, you wanna measure it.

00:03:59.060 And if you distill it into a metric,

00:04:01.360 it means you understand it.

00:04:02.700 Most people can't distill their life

00:04:04.580 into the right measurement,

00:04:05.600 which means they don't understand it,

00:04:07.040 which makes it impossible to improve.

00:04:09.200 This is why I believe that measuring things daily

00:04:12.200 is a must.

00:04:13.780 First off, it gives visibility

00:04:15.520 into the things that are important to you.

00:04:17.820 So if you wanna grow your business

00:04:19.380 or you wanna get healthier,

00:04:20.500 you have to measure those things

00:04:21.920 because then you'll focus on them.

00:04:23.620 Just the act of measuring it and writing it down

00:04:26.360 will change your prioritization.

00:04:28.220 You'll be like, okay, I'm measuring my weight again.

00:04:30.380 It didn't move yesterday.

00:04:31.720 What do I gotta change today?

00:04:32.840 And the cool part is it also gamifies your growth.

00:04:35.220 It makes it a thing that you measure

00:04:36.920 and see if you're getting better over time.

00:04:38.980 And some things like my food,

00:04:40.160 I measure throughout the day.

00:04:41.600 So that way it makes it fun.

00:04:43.080 And all I'm trying to do is take my best score

00:04:45.600 and try to beat it every time.

00:04:47.100 It turns life into this fun video game.

00:04:49.680 And just like a video game that gives you feedback

00:04:51.520 while you're playing,

00:04:52.460 now your life is giving you back some information

00:04:55.140 to know if you're making better decisions.

00:04:56.700 If you don't measure things,

00:04:58.020 how are you supposed to know if you're getting better?

00:04:59.720 So here's the deal.

00:05:00.480 I learned a long time ago,

00:05:01.560 if you want something to get better,

00:05:03.400 the higher precision that you measure it with,

00:05:06.420 the tooling that you use to measure,

00:05:08.780 the frequency of measurement is the first step.

00:05:11.480 most people struggle in their life or in business and it's because they haven't broken down each

00:05:15.960 step from the initial concept to the finished revenue or like hey waking up in the morning

00:05:21.160 all the way to losing weight and then they wonder why they're not making any money with their

00:05:24.440 marketing funnel or losing any weight well it's because that afternoon snack that you think isn't

00:05:29.080 a big deal turns out it's putting you over on the calories or there's a button missing in a landing

00:05:33.880 page and because it's not working because you don't know because a funnel step isn't being

00:05:37.720 reported properly is costing you a ton of money so this is the big idea what you focus on will expand

00:05:44.520 and when you measure daily the thing you want to grow will grow here's the final concept the first

00:05:50.440 step towards progress is just looking where to step the most important next step what's called

00:05:55.080 the mins just take that step to measuring it'll get you on the path most people don't want to

00:06:00.120 measure because it sounds like effort but if you're going to do all the work of planning going

00:06:04.840 into the gym actually working out and then you don't measure your food your macros i just think

00:06:10.040 it's kind of silly because that could be the needle mover that could be the hinge on the big

00:06:15.160 massive door that makes it easy for you to get results but that not wanting to measure because

00:06:19.880 it feels like work is the missed data that you need to know if you're making better decisions

00:06:25.000 so now you've got the foundation but if you're feeling stuck on problems that feel too big with

00:06:29.480 no idea how to actually make progress habit number four is what will unlock it for you

00:06:33.800 and it's this learn daily the problem is that so many people hit a wall they want to grow but then

00:06:40.040 they hit what i call their complexity ceiling and what i've learned is that each level there's

00:06:44.920 a new devil usually what happens when people hit those ceilings they just spiral inside their own

00:06:49.080 head they keep trying a bunch of stuff based on history and things they've tried but it doesn't

00:06:53.400 work all they do is they keep searching for answers but they're missing information when i

00:06:57.640 was 17 my dad did one of the coolest things ever and at the time i didn't understand it

00:07:02.760 which is he gave me an unlimited budget for books.

00:07:05.580 He said, as long as I finished them,

00:07:07.300 he'd buy me the next one.

00:07:08.560 And my dad didn't come from money

00:07:09.840 and we didn't have all the resources in the world.

00:07:11.780 So it was actually like a big deal that he did it.

00:07:14.080 And today I've read over 1800 books.

00:07:17.020 My life has been shaped by books.

00:07:18.980 When people see me driving around my supercar

00:07:20.640 and they ask me, what do you do?

00:07:21.780 I always tell them, it's not what I do, it's what I've done.

00:07:24.100 And what I did is I read books to help improve my life.

00:07:26.700 In many ways, I am built by books.

00:07:29.280 This is why books are so incredible.

00:07:30.780 Books can give you the confidence

00:07:32.360 to tackle any new and bigger problems.

00:07:35.180 It's literally the cheat code.

00:07:36.620 Think about it.

00:07:37.340 For 20 bucks, you can get 20 years of knowledge

00:07:40.120 from some person that became an expert on a topic

00:07:42.640 and read it in eight hours

00:07:44.240 and have all their best practices,

00:07:46.260 all their solutions to the biggest problems they ever faced,

00:07:48.640 some understanding of what you might be facing in the future

00:07:51.560 for eight hours and 20 bucks.

00:07:53.340 I think it's the coolest trade in the world.

00:07:55.320 And I gotta give a shout out to my dad

00:07:56.820 for even introducing me to that concept at such a young age.

00:07:59.800 so these are my three rules of reading number one don't read just in case read just in time see i

00:08:05.960 get people asking me all the time hey dan what book should i read i'm like what are you dealing

00:08:10.040 with what do you need to learn like i don't know what are you reading what i'm reading and what

00:08:13.960 you should be reading are two different things see the difference is just in time is the thing

00:08:18.040 you need to learn to apply to your life today just in case is almost kind of like entertainment

00:08:22.920 even if it's a business book because you don't have something to apply it to yet it's like you're

00:08:27.160 reading to get ready for a moment that's not there you know some people they literally just

00:08:31.720 keep reading business books and they don't start a business stop that read books for the number one

00:08:37.240 problem you have in your life right now and execute what you read number two i read to learn not to

00:08:43.000 finish some people are so ocd when they start a book they won't allow themselves to start another

00:08:48.840 book or to entertain any other kind of information until they finish the book even if they accidentally

00:08:53.880 picked a book that is not even relevant to their life. I will tell you, most of the books I've

00:08:57.880 started, as soon as I find that golden nugget, that one thing that adds a lot of value to my

00:09:02.500 life and I go execute on it, if I decide to read it, cool. If I don't, I don't mind. I probably

00:09:08.080 have five or six books on the go right now because I'm always trying to figure out what mood am I in,

00:09:12.940 what problem am I trying to solve? Does this chapter solve that? I keep moving on to another

00:09:16.940 book. I might think, okay, I got to go find something a little bit more relevant to the

00:09:20.620 space I'm in right now. Do I finish most of my books? Nope. Do I finish books? Sometimes if

00:09:26.140 they're well written, but I'm not starting a book with the intent to make sure I finish the whole

00:09:30.580 thing. Oftentimes what I do is I read the first three chapters. If I get something awesome from

00:09:35.000 it, I'll then go to chat GPT and ask it to give me the seven top takeaways from the book, learn

00:09:40.340 those and see if there's anything in those seven that I want to learn. And then I'll go to that

00:09:44.320 chapter. Other than that, I move on. Number three is read books to serve others. Now this one is a

00:09:50.260 game changer. See, most people just read books selfishly for themselves, which I told you to do

00:09:54.400 in number one. The bigger move is to ask yourself for your customers, for the person that you serve,

00:09:59.960 what could you read to add value to their life? See, I believe every person should wake up to

00:10:04.860 create the most value for other people in their world than anybody else in their world. So if you

00:10:09.920 want to help your customers be more successful, read books that could help them. Read books about

00:10:14.740 their industry, read books about personal problems, leadership, whatever you can do to better yourself

00:10:19.440 to then help them, that's a game changer.

00:10:21.840 Most people are so selfish.

00:10:23.280 If they're like, if I can't make money reading this book,

00:10:25.280 I'm not gonna read it.

00:10:26.280 How about you read a book for somebody else

00:10:28.740 and they make the money?

00:10:30.080 How about you give them the idea

00:10:31.440 and they go become wealthy?

00:10:32.640 I believe you receive what you desire for others.

00:10:35.380 And this concept of reading books for your customers

00:10:37.440 is essentially just reinforcing that concept.

00:10:39.600 Here's the deal.

00:10:40.240 It doesn't have to be just books.

00:10:41.600 Find mentors to follow on social media

00:10:43.580 and watch them regularly.

00:10:45.040 If I'm that guy for you, awesome.

00:10:47.000 Just don't forget,

00:10:47.700 we have a goal of hitting a million subscribers

00:10:49.380 So hit that subscribe button and keep watching.

00:10:52.080 What good is consuming 1800 books

00:10:53.900 if you're not retaining or using it?

00:10:55.480 This next habit will make sure

00:10:56.700 you're not just blasting through content, hoping for change.

00:10:59.240 So here's habit number five, teach daily.

00:11:01.960 There's this old concept called the learning pyramid.

00:11:04.660 It says you only retain about 10% by reading alone,

00:11:07.760 but by teaching someone, you'll retain about 90%.

00:11:11.040 When I started making my role about teaching,

00:11:13.820 everything changed in my life.

00:11:15.260 In my 20s, my first company,

00:11:16.700 I just expected everybody I hired

00:11:18.440 to just know how to do the thing.

00:11:20.540 It turns out that's a really bad way to lead.

00:11:22.900 Now, I literally don't go a single day

00:11:25.060 without achieving some kind of teaching.

00:11:27.320 Why?

00:11:27.700 Because it reinforces the learning.

00:11:29.900 Here's how I'd recommend you do it

00:11:31.300 so that you can really deepen your learning.

00:11:33.360 We all have opportunities to teach every day.

00:11:35.740 Think about it this way.

00:11:36.420 You could teach one-on-one,

00:11:37.640 think colleagues, team members, spouse,

00:11:40.840 if they're open to it.

00:11:42.160 You could teach to a group,

00:11:43.760 think leadership training for your whole company,

00:11:45.680 youth program or any group of people that are willing to come together you can even do live

00:11:49.760 q a you just like tweet out a link and say hey i'm gonna do a live q a and i'd love to teach you

00:11:53.920 some stuff or you can teach your content and this is essentially talking to your camera pull out

00:11:58.520 your phone and talk to it teach the concept teach a lesson teach an insight that you got that day

00:12:03.700 and just post it on social media post it on your instagram stories post it on your youtube the

00:12:08.280 cool thing about social media is you can teach anything at any time to anyone not say anybody's

00:12:12.840 going to watch but it's about you retaining the information not necessarily how many views you get

00:12:17.540 here's the coolest part building a teaching habit forces you to learn new things if you build that

00:12:22.420 rhythm of always trying to learn something and then teach it you'll always be looking for new

00:12:27.280 things to learn and that's how you actually integrate those learnings into your life the

00:12:32.320 next habits are actually the opposite of what people are talking about if you really want to

00:12:36.380 set yourself up for success it's not a morning routine habit number six prepare for tomorrow

00:12:40.980 here's what most people do they change their alarm from 7 to 5 a.m getting up a little early

00:12:45.980 and then they stack 10 things together and power in some morning routine then in a few days it all

00:12:51.300 falls apart they get all excited they start and then they stop see people see me post stories at

00:12:56.500 4 a.m and think i'm crazy but i'm not that impressive the only reason my morning routine

00:13:00.980 works is because of what i do the day and night before so here's how it looks first off i call it

00:13:06.560 the daily shutdown. Number one is I review my day at the end of the day and then I take any open

00:13:11.860 loops and I write them in a list. This list is a perpetual list of things that I want to get done

00:13:17.440 and I use it to prioritize and block in my calendar so I never forget anything. So at the

00:13:22.000 end of the day, I dump anything that's still an open loop that I didn't get to. I put it in my

00:13:26.200 laptop. I categorize it. I put it into my calendar and then I shut my laptop. Why? Because I want to

00:13:31.640 be present with the people I spend time with, which is my family. The next thing I do is I

00:13:35.400 prepare the work. I look at my calendar and my projects and make sure the things that I need to

00:13:39.920 do the actual work are in the description of the calendar. And if it's not, I reach out to the

00:13:44.440 people or I go grab it and I copy paste it there so that it is ready to go. Because the worst thing

00:13:49.440 you can do is waste your time trying to find stuff when you really want to be working at those times

00:13:53.520 you've put in the calendar. The last part, crazy important, is I go to bed on time. I think most

00:13:58.820 problems would be solved if you just went to bed on time. Some people just let themselves start a

00:14:03.500 show and it keeps going and one more episode and I get it but trust me that's a losing recipe

00:14:08.900 staying up till 11 30 at night to wake up groggy eyed at 6 00 because that's when your alarm's

00:14:14.340 going off I don't think a tv show is worth it so that's why I say I'm not that impressive I just

00:14:19.160 go to bed at like 9 9 30 and I get up really early because that early morning time when it's quiet

00:14:25.000 and the rest of the world is quiet is where I get the most work and no tv show at 10 p.m at night is

00:14:30.700 worth me not having that focused time here's a crazy idea how about you set your alarm for when

00:14:36.160 you're gonna go to bed and honor it and when it goes off no more shut it down go to sleep when I

00:14:41.480 was a kid my mom said be home by 11 p.m because nothing productive is gonna happen after 11 p.m

00:14:45.940 all the cool moments peak everything that happens after that 50% of the time is gonna come with an

00:14:50.360 apology we assume growth is about doing the right things but in my experience I got so much more

00:14:55.500 leverage by not doing the wrong things so habit number seven is this keep a do not do list all

00:15:01.260 the advice you usually hear is about adding more to your plate do more stuff grow truth is that's

00:15:06.620 not easy when you're already overwhelmed but we forget we're allowed to remove it's crazy because

00:15:11.020 i do this program called king's club for 15 to 20 year old youth and the number one question almost

00:15:16.220 every time i run the event that people ask me is i want to be successful what do i need to do and

00:15:21.180 my answer is always the same the truth is it's not what i did it's what i don't do what i don't do is

00:15:26.940 i don't drink i don't do drugs i don't eat sugar i don't gamble i don't vape i don't do all the

00:15:33.260 things that i know are going to hold me back and some of these things people go well dan how do i

00:15:38.220 enjoy myself if you need to take a substance to change your state because you're not happy with

00:15:44.700 who you are that's an issue and the problem with that is that if you actually are successful that

00:15:50.140 habit will actually be the reason that you lose that level of success oftentimes when we want to

00:15:55.020 move forward we get to learn to let go of things so that we can make room for the new so it's not

00:15:59.740 about adding more stuff it's about stopping things here's the big idea every new level came when i

00:16:06.620 gave up a bad habit every time it's almost like if you made a list of everything you're not willing

00:16:11.340 to give up i would consider that the reason why you're never going to win whatever you tell me i

00:16:15.900 would never is your opportunity for reflection so here's how i do it in practice i reflect a lot

00:16:20.860 on decisions i've made and ask myself if i had to make that again today would it be an f yeah

00:16:25.980 see a lot of people say yes to things that are two three four five months into the future

00:16:30.140 what if it was tonight if you woke up today and somebody said hey i need you to come to this

00:16:34.460 charity event tonight at six o'clock and you looked at your calendar would you say yes would

00:16:37.980 you be enthusiastically excited to do it if not you're allowed to say no and you don't need a

00:16:43.900 reason to say no see most people have this like people pleasing desire and not hurting other

00:16:49.420 people's feelings that they put themselves in a situation that they then become resentful for

00:16:53.660 at the end of the day it's not what i do it's what i don't do that makes me successful so here's the

00:16:58.140 way i think about it it's simple scales level one stop bad habits and you know what those are

00:17:04.540 it's literally the thing that you wish other people didn't find out about it's the things

00:17:08.380 you have shame around level two stop low value tasks anything that you're doing that you could

00:17:14.140 pay somebody else a quarter of what you get paid per hour to do let the other person have the

00:17:19.100 employment create the opportunity to create jobs there's a good chance that if you're watching this

00:17:24.140 your time is valuable if you don't consider your time valuable nobody else will take it valuable

00:17:28.700 either and habit number eight is for the pros now if you're serious about tackling life with speed

00:17:33.660 and without burning out you'll make this a habit keep it dry dry stands for do not repeat yourself

00:17:40.060 see most people assume if you want more money you got to work harder not true some of the people

00:17:45.180 that put roofs on houses or build cement walls they work harder than anybody else the most

00:17:50.220 successful people get obsessed with actually doing less and the reason why is they don't

00:17:55.420 want to repeat themselves if they create a system if they have to give somebody something to do

00:18:00.460 They wanna build a checklist

00:18:01.980 so that every time it happens the same way.

00:18:04.860 See, people that drive themselves crazy,

00:18:06.460 it's because they're always having to tell people

00:18:09.280 how to do stuff.

00:18:10.380 They never thought, hey, if I'm gonna do this

00:18:12.520 a thousand times in my life, hire somebody,

00:18:15.600 train somebody, follow up with somebody,

00:18:18.320 schedule something, maybe I should sit down,

00:18:21.120 document it, and give it to somebody else to follow

00:18:23.400 so that you don't have to do it

00:18:25.020 so you create the space to level up.

00:18:26.880 What you don't realize is that everything in life

00:18:29.260 can be a system and most people never step back to just look at it so for example recently i was

00:18:34.260 in chicago i was meeting with my team and we're launching my newest book software as a science

00:18:38.740 and i've got the task of signing 500 books and i sit down and i think about the process because

00:18:45.200 i'm definitely going to sign other books in the future and i map out a simple five person book

00:18:49.780 signing process and i had 60 minutes in the calendar to sign those 500 books and i ended

00:18:54.200 up doing it in 18. how did i do it systems in software development you write code that is dry

00:19:00.520 don't repeat yourself you're gonna write some code that does an addition instead of doing it in line

00:19:05.560 you take that function add and you put it separate and you call it every time so if there's ever a

00:19:10.440 bug there's one place to fix it that concept you can apply to your whole life so for example i

00:19:15.560 always wear the same outfit i have the same blue shirts the same beige pants the same white shoes

00:19:20.440 it is my uniform do i have multiple yeah like 27 versions of it but i go into my closet i wear the

00:19:26.120 same stuff it matches with everything i don't have to think about it ever again it is a system for me

00:19:31.240 when i make decisions once i try to look for stencils and stencils is kind of like a pattern

00:19:36.040 that i can give somebody else to go find examples of that in the world so for example when i'm

00:19:41.160 creating my events i've got like a one day and a two day event stencil it's like a blueprint so

00:19:46.520 So that way I have a stencil I give to somebody else

00:19:48.540 that's organizing the event to follow

00:19:50.420 and they're gonna get most of it exactly the way I would

00:19:53.200 because they just follow that stencil.

00:19:54.720 If somebody asked you to paint like 100 butterflies

00:19:57.980 on a wall and all you had was like a brush,

00:20:00.100 it would take you all day to hand paint those butterflies.

00:20:03.980 But if I gave you a stencil that you could just put

00:20:05.860 on the wall and kind of spray over,

00:20:07.800 you could get those 100 done in an hour.

00:20:09.980 Everything in life is like a process.

00:20:11.460 You go from raw materials to some form of finished goods.

00:20:14.520 If you design it, it removes all the stress out of it.

00:20:17.840 You keep all the fun stuff, like planning,

00:20:19.980 but you create a system, you create a checklist,

00:20:22.540 and the whole thing just gets easier.

00:20:24.220 So you can either choose to run your systems

00:20:26.120 or a lack of systems will run you.

00:20:28.380 It can be as simple as making yourself breakfast

00:20:30.660 all the way to manufacturing new shoes.

00:20:32.860 Now, I know you're not gonna make your own clothes,

00:20:34.320 but there's a lot of decisions you make in your home

00:20:36.720 that you don't need to make every time.

00:20:39.040 You can figure out what you wanna eat on a monthly basis,

00:20:41.480 break it down per week, per day.

00:20:42.820 I even have it so that I have a checklist

00:20:44.620 for all my packing

00:20:45.640 so I don't even have to pack my clothes

00:20:47.220 when I go on vacation.

00:20:48.400 Now I know that sounds crazy.

00:20:49.660 What's the worst that could happen?

00:20:51.040 You have a credit card on you

00:20:52.020 and you go shopping if you forget something?

00:20:53.900 Not a big deal.

00:20:54.980 Your life will dramatically change

00:20:56.440 when you create systems for your personal life.

00:20:58.360 And James Clear probably said it best

00:21:00.080 because a lot of people have these massive goals.

00:21:02.080 He says, you don't rise to the level of your goals,

00:21:04.300 you fall to the level of your systems.

00:21:06.460 Having systems in your life

00:21:07.880 create the foundation for success.

00:21:09.820 But here's the thing,

00:21:10.460 no matter what stage you're at,

00:21:12.060 if you implement these eight habits,

00:21:14.200 your life will be absolutely transformed.

00:21:16.600 But if you wanna be 99.9% more productive,
