Fighting The Curse Of Unrealistic Expectations

This is a very bitter pill to swallow. Success takes time. Building a company takes time. Losing weight takes time. Building a muscular body takes time. However, most people are impatient. We live in a world of instant text messaging and microwaves.

Everyone is looking for quick results and they want them right away. It just doesn’t work that way. Don’t lose faith just because it takes longer than you thought it would. Everything comes to those who wait. Go forward in faith.

In general, a person can lose around 1 to 2 pounds of fat per week. You may lose more weight at first if you’re just starting out, but over time your results will wear off and you will likely gain between 1 and 2 pounds per week. What if you weigh more than 40 pounds? You are looking for a period of 30–40 weeks to reach your ideal weight.

That means about 8 to 9 months! Most people assume that in about 3 weeks they will lose all of their excess weight. If no result is achieved, they lose hope and give up. They never give it enough time.

It takes years for a warrior to develop his skills. Time is your greatest ally. It doesn’t matter what your goals are. With diligence and time you will achieve your goal. Make your expectations realistic. Having a goal that seems out of reach is good for you to be your best. Just don’t expect to get there in 24 hours. Well, unless you are in possession of a time machine.

He who masters patience masters everything else. Avoid this curse at all cost and do not quit just before results start to come.

A Warrior Keeps His Promises

When it comes to keeping your promises, it’s not just about keeping your promises to others. You have to keep your promises to yourself too.

Few people do this without realizing how destructive the effects are. If you choose to exercise three times a week, you must keep that promise. If you want to create everyday content for your online business, you must adhere to this program.

There will be times when you just won’t feel up to any of it. Moments when you are not in a good mood. In these cases, you need to act.

Here’s what you need to know now. If you don’t keep your promises, you will lose self-esteem.

You can make any excuses you want. As convincing as it is, deep down in the subconscious level you will know that you have let yourself down. Many people hate themselves for not getting where they want to be in life. It all starts with those little promises you don’t keep. Respect yourself, your goals, and your efforts. You will be motivated and proud when you do what you have to do. This motivates you to pursue your goals.

Sharpen Your Sword

The warriors’ sword is always sharp, and they don’t sharpen it in war. All preparations and training take place in advance. They’re prepared and ready. You did what was important and that is important to success. Doing something so important that it literally determines whether you will succeed or if you will spin your wheels and get nowhere.

The world is full of people who are always busy doing things that should take them elsewhere but have no results. It always seems like you have nowhere to go, but you can’t wait to get there.

This is because they confuse activity and work. For example, if you want to lose weight, it is important to exercise and watch your calories.

You won’t lose weight by reading tons of nutrition books, spending hours studying diet tips on YouTube and going to the gym. What really matters is exercise and what you eat. It really is … and a lot of people don’t get it. You fill up with too much information without doing the right thing. The following five tips will tell you exactly what you need to do to be truly successful.

3 Tasks A Day

Don’t make a list of 275 things to do. That’s enough to confuse anyone. Only start with 3 missions and 3 missions should be important.

If you’re looking to lose weight, these three can be 20 minute cardio exercise, an intermittent fasting day, and an early bedtime to get adequate rest. All you have to do is do these three things. That’s it. If you do this over and over again you can reach your goal weight.

Don’t worry about a lot of things like studying the blood type diet, finding out if Jupiter aligns with Mars to activate your chakras during a yoga session. Put all your activities aside. Focus on just 3 important tasks a day.

Doing just enough to be a little uncomfortable

Growth has to be challenged. Trying to build an online business can mean writing 2,000 words of content every day. Once you get used to making a lot of content, you will do it with ease, you may want to push a little and target 2500 words.

You want to move forward step by step. With time you will be amazed at how everything fits together.

The same goes for your situation. If you can only run for 10 minutes on the treadmill, no problem. Try to increase the duration by 20 seconds for each exercise. The difference will be a little annoying, but it won’t be so bad that it scares you. Make significant progress in a reasonable time.

Do the most difficult task first

It is human nature to do anything but the hardest work. You can rearrange your desk or folders on your computer, all you have to do is analyze the statistics in your advertising account. The mind tries to escape difficult tasks. Your job is to do it first. Forget everything and do the hardest work at once. Focus on it. Upon completion, a weight is lifted off your back and the rest of the small tasks are easily done.

Activity and work are two different things

As mentioned earlier, you need to know the difference. Simplify your life to only do the important things. Don’t do unnecessary things, eliminate all the trivial things that don’t help your progress. Then you have more time for important things.

Know when to take a break

Music is the space between the notes. Take short breaks when you feel a little tired. This will keep you focused and energized to get important tasks done. That is all there really is to it.

“Don’t tell me how busy you are. Show me what you’ve gotten done. Words don’t matter. Results do.” — Larry Winget.

The Importance of Focus

Bruce Lee once said, “Concentration is the root of all the higher abilities in man.” To succeed in life, you must have the ability to focus and concentrate. Focused hard work is the key to success.

The best way to focus is to remove all interruptions. But focus is slightly more than the removal of distractions. These days and ages, we have been told that several skill tasks are useful. In reality, you need to avoid doing several tasks at once. It distracts you and over time you’ll lose the ability to stay focused on any one thing for long.

You never see a warrior fighting with a sword, so take a quick look at their Facebook wall to see what’s going on. Focus 100% on the battle ahead. Your goal is to only do one task at a time and give it the best possible chance.
