Are you paying the price now to play later?

The secret of your success is determined by your daily agenda. Make the decision once, then manage it daily. Successful people make the right decisions early and manage those decisions daily.

Many people believe that success is determined by how busy they are but that's not always the case. True success is determined by the habits practised on a daily basis. 

The picture above is a great example of this. Let me explain what I mean.

First, a decision was made, which led to the preparation of the soil, sowing of seeds, followed by fertilisation. Then a system involving repeatable activities was introduced, the irrigation process. Finally, harvest and storage time came. 

(Disclaimer - I am not a farmer, the above is just for illustrative purposes 😉)

Put simply, there was a desired outcome, which led to a decision being made early. That decision initiated a series of key steps/activities. Once in place, it simply became a matter of maintaining the decision, which in our case is the habits we practise daily. 

Decision ⇨ key steps/activities daily ⇨ habits = success

In my opinion, the first step is the most important. Once a decision is made, it is much easier to put in systems and processes (habits) to aid success. 

Tomorrow I will share what this looks like for me in the area of my personal growth.

What daily habits are you practising to help you achieve the success you desire? Leave a comment, I'd really love to hear from you.
